All My Disciples Are Insane!

He Yiming shook his head as he watched the players struggle. Even after so many deaths, they still hadn't managed to kill a single War Hunchback Beast.

He sighed and sent out a system notification.

[Friendly reminder: If you are hungry, it is suggested that players eat the War Hunchback Beast's meat in the sect's square. If thirsty, drink water from the well next to the Great Hall.]

[If experiencing fatigue (in-game), find a place to rest.]

[Players must meditate to log out of the game.]

With that, He Yiming turned and started walking back to recuperate.

But just as he stepped forward—

"Holy shit! Look at what I found!"

A loud, excited shout echoed across the sect.

Beef Noodle came running out of the library, waving a jade slip in the air like a madman. His eyes sparkled with excitement.

Carved into the slip were three words: Accumulated Energy Kick.

He Yiming raised an eyebrow. A martial skill? He hadn't expected the sect to still have one lying around.

Meanwhile, Beef Noodle was practically vibrating with excitement.

He had died three times in a row and had come to a realization—blindly charging in was just going to get him kicked to death again. He needed something to fight back.

So, he had searched everywhere—every ruined hall, every collapsed corridor, and eventually, he had stumbled upon a building with a faded wooden plaque.

Library.

"Library? There must be cultivation techniques inside!" Beef Noodle had rushed in, his heart pounding.

Only to be greeted with… empty bookshelves.

Not a single scroll.

Not a single technique.

Just dust and disappointment.

But Beef Noodle was not discouraged!

He had rummaged through every corner, checked behind every shelf, and after nearly giving up,he found it. A single, lonely jade slip, buried under a pile of broken wood.

Accumulated Energy Kick.

"There was still a technique left in these ruins?" He Yiming muttered, looking at the slip with mild interest.

Then he read the name again.

Immediately, he understood.

This wasn't a cultivation technique.

It wasn't even a real martial art.

It was a glorified beginner's exercise.

To put it simply, the technique was about gathering all the strength in one's body and delivering a single, focused kick. The catch?

It required the user to stand completely still for an entire second before attacking.

In the world of cultivators, where battles were decided in the blink of an eye, this was basically a suicide move.

"This is a cultivation jade slip. Place it on your glabella, and you'll enter an Illusory Realm for training," He Yiming explained.

"Got it!" Beef Noodle immediately pressed the jade slip against his forehead.

The moment he did, his surroundings blurred.

When his vision cleared, he was inside a vast, dark space.

A figure with a blurred face stood in front of him.

The figure pulled back its right leg, bent it, and a powerful force began to gather around it. Then, after a full second, it exploded forward with a mighty kick.

Again and again, the figure repeated the move, like an eternal training dummy.

"Ohhh, I get it now…" Beef Noodle muttered, studying the motion.

Moments later, he withdrew from the Illusory Realm, his expression full of confidence.

"Brother, let me see too!"

"Finally! Our first skill!"

"This is just a martial skill, you idiot."

One by one, the other players grabbed the jade slip, eager to learn.

Meanwhile, Beef Noodle stepped back, took a deep breath, and—

"Hy-yaa!"

He jumped in the air, tensed his leg, and launched himself forward!

The movement was smooth, refined,almost beautiful.

"HAHA! WRETCHED BEAST, I AM INVINCIBLE!" Beef Noodle laughed, stretching his legs like a proud rooster.

He Yiming stared at him, speechless.

Invincible?

Sure. If he went back to his original world, maybe he could beat up some thugs.

But this was a world where cultivators could shatter mountains with a flick of their fingers.

And he thought a kick would make him invincible?

He Yiming sighed and turned away. He had already wasted enough time watching them.

Meanwhile, the players were hyped.

Beef Noodle's confidence was contagious.

"With a martial skill, a mere War Hunchback Beast is nothing!" He grinned and charged down the mountain.

The other players blinked.

Then realization hit them.

"Wait! What if this actually works?!"

The sect mission was worth 100 contribution points after all!

If Beef Noodle pulled this off, he'd get a huge lead.

One by one, they ran after him.

Among them was Star, watching with narrowed eyes.

"Brother Star, what should we do?" one of his guildmates asked.

"…We follow him," Star said through gritted teeth.

He still couldn't accept it.

He was Star, the president of a top guild, a legendary player known for dominating leaderboards.

And here?

He couldn't even beat a beginner village monster?!

Unacceptable.

With a sharp wave of his hand, he led his team after Beef Noodle.

At the foot of the mountain.

Graaah!

A War Hunchback Beast roared, stomping the ground with enough force to send dust flying.

Beef Noodle grinned.

"Charge!"

He sprinted forward, leaped into the air, and screamed.

"ACCUMULATED ENERGY KICK!"

Silence.

The War Hunchback Beast simply stood there.

Watching.

Its eyes full of pity.
