I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!

Jiang Ye walked out of the Thousand Mechanism Tower with a blank expression, his mind filled with "Who am I, where am I?".

He was a distinguished scholar of the Kyoto Academy, on the verge of breaking through to the Third Grade Heavenly Harmony Realm as a great cultivator, a prodigy in Fist Dao about to reach the Tongyou Realm, yet he fell on the second level in the second round of the Thousand Mechanism Tower tournament.

The reason he was sent out was rather bizarre—not due to a fierce battle or a test of knowledge, but because he was taken down by a cup of tea.

This realization almost made Jiang Ye burst into tears.

Thus, as he walked out of the Thousand Mechanism Tower, his greatest hope was that it wouldn't be like the Mysterious Light Mirror of the first round, revealing his every action inside to outsiders, or else...

But of course, what you fear most is what happens.

When Jiang Ye saw Xie Dongan's sympathetic gaze and noticed his discreetly pointing finger upwards, he looked up with a vacant stare—what a clear illusion realm it was.

"Damn you, Huangshan Taoist, I will never share the same sky as you..."

Jiang Ye muttered to himself, and tears streamed down from his eyes as he fainted on the stage.

Thud.

Seeing him lying down straight like that, Xie Dongan ignored Huangshan Taoist's furious look and quickly rushed forward to pick up Jiang Ye and head towards the boat where Emperor Wei was.

Of course, he didn't dare to take Jiang Ye directly to Emperor Wei's suite but instead sent him to where the Jiang Family was located.

The lady of the Jiang Family, Jiang Ye's biological mother, did not get angry like Jiang Ziqi. Instead, after ensuring Jiang Ye was only passed out, she said with a face full of reproach:

"This child is just too straightforward, doesn't understand all those twists and turns."

At the same time, she didn't forget to instruct Xie Dongan, "In the future, you must guide Ye'er more often. If there's another incident like today's joke, so be it, but if he truly gets plotted against someday, it won't just be a matter of fainting."

Xie Dongan nodded with a wry smile, what else could he say? Things had come to this point, all he could do was put on a brave face and compete well, hoping to regain the Kyoto Academy's reputation.

There was no choice but to regain it.

At this moment, even if he didn't actively perceive it, the sounds of laughter on the faces of those Jianghu guests all around could be heard throughout the entire Kyoto Prefecture.

"Hahaha... Who would have thought the training prepared by Huangshan Taoist would be like this, it's too interesting."

"The first round can be ignored; that maze was a diversion, and Jiang Ye being oblivious while within is forgivable, but that cup of tea in the second round was obviously a kind of knockout drug."

"Anyone with a bit of Jianghu experience wouldn't drink it without a guard."

"It shows that Huangshan Taoist's preparation wasn't just fooling around but painstakingly designed to let these geniuses experience the dangers of the Martial World."

"Right, haha... The Martial World isn't just about fighting and killing; some low tricks are so hard to guard against, otherwise, why would so many geniuses fall for small schemes?"

"That being said, Jiang Ye is probably going to be famous after this."

"Unless some geniuses after him perform worse than he did, otherwise, after this tournament, Jiang Ye's name will spread throughout Wei Dynasty's Seventeen Prefectures..."

The laughter and chatter of many Jianghu guests came pouring in, not only leaving Xie Dongan looking helpless but also making the group of geniuses about to enter the Thousand Mechanism Tower unable to laugh anymore.

The next one to go on stage, Erhua, furrowed her brow and looked pleadingly at Xiao Xuanzhen, Hua Xianzi, and Lin Xueru for help.

"Sister, Senior Sister, Senior Brother, what should we do?"

Xiao Xuanzhen glanced around, looking serious, clearly not having any good ideas.

She herself hadn't traveled much outside the mountain and didn't know much about those low tricks of the Martial World.

Fortunately, both she and Lin Xueru performed well in the first round, so they could observe the performances of other geniuses and navigate by stepping on stones across the river.

After pondering for a while, it was Lin Xueru who spoke first: "Since there are no better ideas, then let's not worry so much, deal with what comes."

"Huh?"

"What Senior Sister Xueru means is don't worry about anything else, just charge ahead blindly," Hua Xianzi understood and nodded in agreement:

"Erhua, once you enter the Thousand Mechanism Tower, just force your way through the first round, knock people over in the second round. Later on, attack immediately upon sight without bothering to listen to what they say, and destroy any labyrinths or mechanisms whenever you see them."

Hua Youxiang's eyes brightened, her thoughts instantly cleared, and she nodded repeatedly: "Let's do it."

As a sword cultivator, she wouldn't care for any evil demons or outsiders, she would simply draw her sword and cut them down.

Du Yan, however, remembered something, took out several array plates from the storage magic device beside her, and handed them to Hua Youxiang, "Take these with you. Use them as needed according to the situation."

"Thank you, Senior Sister."

Nearby, some sect geniuses overheard their conversation and also believed this method to be feasible.

However, clearly, a better plan would be if the geniuses ahead could figure out the contents of each level's tests so they could consider countermeasures.

At this moment, Huangshan Taoist finally temporarily let Jiang Ye off the hook, waving his horsetail whisk coldly:

"Next, Hua Youxiang!"

Erhua paused, reluctantly saying goodbye to Hua Xianzi and the others, and said with a face full of courage:

"I'm going, wish me good news."

Hua Xianzi comforted her: "Don't think too much, just charge in like what Senior Sister Xueru just said."

Xiao Xuanzhen gestured to her, indicating the longsword in her hand, "Go confidently, Chen Yi junior brother is here, surely they wouldn't dare to go too far."

Lin Xueru, Du Yan, and Du Yanqing didn't speak, but their eyes were full of encouragement.

Erhua nodded, gave herself a boost, and then gripped her longsword and entered the Thousand Mechanism Tower.

"The second one is Hua Youxiang from the Grand Void Sect. It is said she is Hua Xianzi's younger sister. Looking at her, they do indeed share a lot of similarities."
