The Eternal Supreme's MC picks fights he has no business winning, and that's somehow the whole appeal
Li Yunxiao is a titled Sovereign's mind crammed into a teenager's body and he flat-out refuses to act like it. Walks into a hall that outguns him, insults the strongest person in the room, and just assumes it works out. Half his escapes are pure luck, an old debt from a past life, an enemy whose technique happens to be incomplete, a master who owes him a favor from a lifetime ago. By every normal rule this guy should be dead ten times over. And yet I'm way deep in and can't stop. A regressor who plays it safe and cultivates in a cave for 90 chapters is a snooze. Here the arrogance IS the engine. So am I coping, or is reckless just the better read?
cope lol. every corner he backs into, a convenient past-life connection shows up to bail him out. that's not arrogance getting rewarded, that's the writer refusing to let him lose
It kind of tracks though. He was top-tier for an entire lifetime, the instincts are real, the body just can't cash the checks yet. And half the people he provokes assume he's the hidden disciple of his old self, so nobody dares touch him. His reputation does most of the fighting.
If you want reckless-but-earned energy, go read Top Tier Providence. Han Jue is arrogant in the total opposite direction, so paranoid he loops back around to funny 😂
