With two Ys appearing out of nowhere, Weibo went into an uproar.

At first, the discussions on Weibo were still as usual, but as time passed, the tone started to change.

The trigger was all due to a single thread. The original post was as follows: [Whoever Y is, please go away. I only know Y-God. Grave Robber's Chronicles must go on!]

Immediately after that, Y's fans were triggered and started flaming Y-God.

Y-God's fans naturally retaliated.

With that, Y and Y-God's fans started a flame war. Y and Y-God remained up on top, taking up the entirety of Weibo's hot searches.

Potato and co. were conflicted. Y's martial arts and acting skills, Y-God's Grave Robber's Chronicles and games. All were to their liking. Suddenly, they did not know who to side with.

Ye Lingchen laughed bitterly and shook his head. He decided to ignore the situation after taking a glance and focused on his system menu.

At that time, Grave Robber's Chronicles had boosted his popularity up to 68,983. Following the current hype, he estimated the mission to be completed that night.

Furthermore, Ye Lingchen's total popularity had reached 208,533.

It was a shame that the trial mission only took into account popularity from Grave Robber's Chronicles. That popularity coming from Weibo and similar sources did not contribute to the mission at all. Otherwise, the mission would have been completed long ago.

However, it was not without benefits. With this, Grave Robber's Chronicles would gain increased exposure, speeding up the popularity gain.

After his afternoon classes, Ye Lingchen routinely rushed over to the internet cafe.

Upon starting his stream, the number of viewers exceeded 100,000 within a minute. Some of Y's fans were mixed in the crowd.

In an instant, messages flooded the screen, almost all of them asking about his relationship with Y.

Ye Lingchen muted the messages, making no attempt to reply. His screen was pitch black, hiding his expression from the viewers.

Grave Robber's Chronicles chapter three had started.

"The scary part of the black dessert is not the sinking quicksand, nor the Gold Devourer Ants that can devour an entire car, nor the black windstorms. According to legend, there's a magical land deep within. When humans enter, they will see lakes, rivers, beauties, magical beasts, snowy mountains, and an oasis. Those thirsty and weary will naturally rush towards these images of paradise. However, they will die of exhaustion without reaching their destination…"

Along with Ye Lingchen's opening of the chapter, the ruckus within the stream stopped. Everyone listened in rapt attention. 30 minutes later, Ye Lingchen's stream was listed among the top ten columns on Huyu's page. The online viewers had exceeded 250,000!

[I admit my mistake. I didn't expect Y-God's Grave Robber's Chronicles to be this good.]

[Sigh, I was originally here out of curiosity. Now I'm addicted!]

[Oh dear Y, I'm sorry. Y-God is also amazing. I'm at a loss on who to side with…]

At the same time, a clear system notification rang within Ye Lingchen's head.

'Mission work: Grave Robber's Chronicles fulfilled mission requirements.'

'Congratulations on the completion of the trial mission. Prodigy System permanently bound. Skill advancement unlocked.'

The sound ignited the flame within Ye Lingchen's mind. He desperately wanted to end the live stream right there and have a good look at the new system function he just unlocked.

After enduring the rest of the live stream, Ye Lingchen's stream had reached the top spot of Huyu with a total online viewers of almost 400,000.

This time, Ye Lingchen did not even bother to entertain his viewers, shutting off his stream the moment it ended.

There were hardly any changes to the system menu, only his popularity had reached 287,649. Behind his popularity, there was an extra option.

He tried selecting the advance button which prompted a simple introduction.

'Basic advancement: Expend 100,000 popularity points. Random advancement of one skill with 100% proficiency.'

'Intermediate advancement: Expend 1,000,000 popularity points. Random advancement of one basic skill.'

'Advanced advancement: Expend 10,000,000 popularity points. Random advancement of one intermediate skill.'

After 100 percent proficiency, the skills could still be raised? To what extent will that advancement be?

Ye Lingchen licked his lips, his curiosity burning.

With his current popularity points, he could afford two advancements. Might as well try it out immediately!

He swallowed his saliva nervously, then selected basic advancement.

He only had seven skills that achieved 100 percent proficiency at the moment.

Arhat Fist, Eight Extremities Fist, Martial Body Fist, Obstacle Course, Pet Taming, DOTA, and English.

Begin!

A yellow circle scrolled through the seven skills, finally fixating on Pet Taming!

'My luck is not as good. How will pet taming turn into something else?'

Ye Lingchen frowned slightly. He specifically read up books on pets because he had two wolf pups. In the process, he managed to raise his Pet Taming proficiency to 100 percent.

After a golden glow, he could see that the Pet Taming tab changed into Animal Taming (Basic).

Basic Animal Taming's proficiency was immediately at 100 percent. At that moment, knowledge about animals flooded into Ye Lingchen's mind, as though he had known them all along.

Damn!

Ye Lingchen's pupils dilated, his face flushed with excitement.

'This skill is f*cking crazy!'

It was as he had expected. After the system's upgrade, the skill had gone beyond the scope of Earth!

Animal Taming was no longer just training a pet. Not only could it help his pets achieve full obedience, he could even communicate with animals!

Basic Animal Taming allowed him to train his pets as though they were an extension of his limbs. At the same time, it allowed his pets to gain human-like wisdom. With a look, he could communicate his intention to his pets.

If that was the case, when this skill reached an intermediate and advanced level, that would allow him to control wild beasts!

Ye Lingchen was elated. With a grin, his hands itched. Looking at the system menu, he once again selected basic advancement!

The yellow circle once again jumped among the skills.

With three martial arts, the chances of hitting one should be quite high. If his martial arts gets the advancement, he might truly become a superhuman!

As for DOTA and English, Ye Lingchen had no idea what the upgraded skills would turn into.

From now on, he should not learn so many useless skills to avoid them wasting the slots.

Finally, the circle of light slowed down bit by bit.

Arhat Fist… passed by. Nevermind, the next one was Eight Extremities Fist.

F*ck! It even passed by Eight Extremities Fist!

Finally, the circle of light stopped on the Obstacle Course.

With a golden glow, the Obstacle Course tab turned into Parkour (Basic).

Ye Lingchen left the internet cafe in a hurry. He planned to find a suitable spot to try out this Parkour skill.

At the moment, it was slightly past 9 pm. It was late, but the lights were still bright all over the place with lots of pedestrians.

Ye Lingchen headed West, going towards a nearby park.

30 minutes later, the area turned more desolate and there were fewer pedestrians.

'This should do. Should I just try it here?'

Ye Lingchen looked around. There were several trees and rocks nearby with many slopes and stairs. In the darkness without street lamps, he should give it a try while there was nobody around...
