I Am A Prodigy Chapter 76
Advertisement
Chen Xiaoyan slowly walked towards the desk, her entire body wobbled.
The contents of the paper were all too familiar to her. To the right was the musical score and to the left should be the lyrics.
When it came to music, she was naturally attuned.
"Chaser of the Light?"
She slowly picked up the paper, and read every word.
Without realizing it, she began to hum along to the notes.
Tears began to flow out of her eyes unintentionally.
This was an original creation!
Furthermore, it was an original creation that would definitely be a hit!
Chaser of the Light, such a metaphorical name. To her, this melody was the light!
Was this left behind by the person yesterday?
When she looked at the last line at the bottom, she smiled at first then… the tears could not be held back anymore, and they flowed freely.
Don't despair, life is like a heartbeat monitor, if it were smooth, it means… you're dead.
"Thank you… Thank you…"
She covered her mouth with her hand and tried her best not to cry out loud.
Even if she met with a wall at every turn in the entertainment industry, even if other people gave her unreasonable requests, even if she faced ridicule and apathy, she never cried. However, now, she did, and she sobbed uncontrollably.
She twisted the paper in her hands until her fingertips turned white. [1]
"Y, what did you run away for? You don't want to take responsibility? Think again!"
…
At the same time, Ye Lingchen had returned to the hostel.
"Ye'zi, you never disappoint!" Xiang roared in laughter, stretching out his hands to Potato and Lil' Gen. "If you're willing to bet, you're willing to lose. Quickly, pay me!"
Potato and Lil' Gen glared at Ye Lingchen and forked over the money.
"What's going on?" Ye Lingchen asked in curiosity.
"I made a bet with them, that within half a month you'll spend the night outside of the hotel. Potato bet on a month, and Lil' Gen said it'd be half a year. Hahaha, as it turns out, I win!" Xiang laughed again and gave Ye Lingchen a thumbs up, "Ye'zi, well done!"

You can even bet on this? How bored are you guys?
After a little more banter, the 3 of them finally calmed down.
Ye Lingchen fed the two wolf pups. They were no longer small, and he had prepared a special training program for them to increase their hunting, fighting and running ability.
"Oh yeah, Lil' Gen, didn't you join the school's basketball competition? Why aren't you at training?" asked Ye Lingchen.
"D*mn it, I get so mad when we talk about this. During the training session that son of a b*tch He Yuan just could not get along with us from the arts stream, and using his position as the President of the Student Council, wouldn't even give us a place to train!"
"Wouldn't even give you a place to train?" Ye Lingchen frowned heavily, there was clearly a bias.
"Yeah, and he just made up an excuse that there isn't enough training areas and excluded our stream. We can only wait until other people are on break to use the grounds for training. It's come to the point that we have to go to other schools and use their facilities." Lil' Gen nodded, speaking in a dark mood.
"F*ck! That son of a b*tch, using his position to settle a private grudge!" Potato cursed angrily.
"It seems that he's determined to be our nemesis!" Ye Lingchen's eyes flashed, and he spoke neutrally.
Lil' Gen was worried that Ye Lingchen would get hot-headed and assault He Yuan. He calmly said, "Ye'zi, it's fine. He is the Student Council President. We can afford to suffer some loss, even if we don't have training grounds, we will still win this competition!"
"That's right! Lil' Gen, I support you!" Xiang said, "His grandmother, that assh*le He Yuan can call himself the Little Prince of Basketball. It makes me retch, you have to trash him in this competition!"
He Yuan was naturally gifted in sports, and he was also a member of the school basketball team, this would not be easy.

Ye Lingchen nodded and did not speak.
…...
The next day.
Ye Lingchen checked his popularity score and received a pleasant surprise.
What was originally a score of only 80,000, had now risen to 105783.
Looking at Weibo, it turns out he had made it to the trending page again.
The trending search was: recording of Y cursing someone.
Somebody specially made a summary of Ye Linchen's choice insults to save everyone the trouble.
1. Did your mom throw away her son and raise a placenta.
2. In life you waste air, in death you waste land, at home you waste money.
3. Your dad should have held it in, why didn't he blow you out on the wall?
4. A dumb c*nt will drag your intellect down to their level, and use their experience to defeat you!
…
These insults were the trending words on the internet now and had attracted a lot of attention.
A lot of media entities had also rode the wave and unceasingly churned out clickbaity articles.
The comments below had also exploded, and there were both good and bad.
[Y is of this character? Ah ah…]
[He even has this style when insulting him, I love Y even more.]
[Y, I want to make you give birth to a monkey…]
[In the future nobody will dare to look down on those who insult others, turns out that it requires some finesse.]
…
A popularity score of a hundred thousand, does he want to increase his skills?
This was a meaningless question, and Ye Lingchen naturally opened the system menu.
At this time, his list of knowledge that had reached 100% proficiency had increased by one.
Eight Extremities Fist, Martial Body Fist, DOTA, English and Insulting.
Looking at his insulting skills, Ye Lingchen was slightly unsure of what to do. This could also form a prerequisite for promotion?
Whatever it was, just give it a go.
Start!
A yellow orb of light bounced rapidly, Ye Lingchen's heart had reached its' zenith.
For no other reason, except that this promotion's knowledge was more wonderful.
DOTA, English and Insulting, these 3 things would make anyone feel insecure.
It cannot be one of these 3, especially not insulting.
The heavens seemed to listen to Ye Lingchen's prayers, and the yellow orb certainly did fall on the insulting category.
God d*mn!
Ye Lingchen rubbed his eyes, and could not accept the reality of it.
This 100,000 popularity score was wasted!
Following the golden light, the insult skill disappeared, and was replaced with… Diatribe (Beginner)!
Diatribe…
This name…
It was like a skill that a main character should have.
D*mn! This skill was impressive!
Ye Lingchen felt as though he had come to heaven from hell.
Diatribe and insult were not very different from each other, but diatribe was still a level above insulting, and that was that it could make the other side feel regret, shame, and emptiness. At the highest level, it could even drive one to suicide.
Godly skill, this was truly a godly skill!
He did not think that simply insulting someone could evolve into this level. If that were the case, what about the other proficiencies? He could no longer look down on the other skills, one would never know when they'd receive a surprise.
Ye Lingchen was in a good mood and was getting ready to go for his morning run.
Ding Ling Ling!
His cell phone rang at that moment.
Looking at the incoming call, Ye Lingchen's face turned even more dignified.
Zhang Yunxi?
Why was this girl calling him at this hour?
One had to know that it was only 5 am, normally people would still be asleep. Unless it was an extremely urgent matter, Zhang Yunxi would not call him at this hour.

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]
