Ye Tian slowly opened his eyes.
His body was still sore from the pain, but his heart felt very calm. The cold stone floor beneath him was real. The pain in his chest? Real. But the strange voice he'd just heard—was that a dream?
As he thought all this the voice sounded again;
[System Notification]Initializing...Welcome, Host, to the Heaven's Wrath System.Let the path of vengeance begin.
Ye Tian blinked. "What... Heaven's Wrath System?"
Yes, that's me host. Your very kind, definitely- not-sarcastic guide to becoming an overpowered face-slapping machine.Let's get started, shall we?
Ye Tian frowned. "Am I going crazy?"
Nope. Just got lucky. Or unlucky—depends on your personality.You've been chosen by the Heaven's Wrath System because of the injustice you've suffered. You've been betrayed, crushed, and tossed aside like trash.
Listening this, Ye Tian clenched his fists.
Yes. It was all still fresh in his mind. His master abandoning him. The girl he loved turning her back on him. His so-called brothers mocking him after taking everything.
"Why me?" he asked quietly.
Because your wrath burns brighter than the heavens themselves. And frankly, that's pretty useful.Now shut up and check your stats.
A glowing screen floated in front of his eyes.

Ye Tian stood up slowly. "So, I start from nothing again…"
No. You start from worse than nothing. But that's what makes it so satisfying when you rise above them all and with me it's possible.So what's it gonna be, loser? Gonna lie there crying or start walking?
A spark lit up in Ye Tian's eyes.
"I'll walk," he whispered. "No. I'll run... all the way to the top."
