A good-for-nothing? I just haven't opened my eyes yet.
Li Tong opened his eyes and became the most useless young master in Dawn City.
When he opened them again, his pupils had turned gold.
In his eyes
There are no perfect supernatural abilities, only flaws everywhere.
There are no opponents he can't beat, only weaknesses he hasn't found yet.
A Transcendent challenges a Controller?
Li Tong: "When you charge up your left hand, your waist shifts right by 0.3 seconds."
One punch, and he's down.
An enemy hires a Domain Lord to hold the fort?
Li Tong takes one look: "Your domain... here, here, it's full of holes."
One slash, and it breaks through.
A Boundary Breaker descends and demands he kneel and beg forgiveness.
Li Tong opens his eyes:
"In my eyes, your 'boundary' is full of cracks."
It's a very nice book, and the plot is well-paced.
