1669 I Think You’ll Make A Reliable Backer!
The man with dragon horns frowned at the sudden appearance of the academy arbitration a.s.sociation.
He might appear arrogant and conceited, but he feared the academy arbitration a.s.sociation.
He had long heard of the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation.
w.a.n.g Teng looked at the man with dragon horns mockingly. However, he was surprised too. He had thought they would have to fight a little longer, but he didn’t expect the academy arbitration a.s.sociation to arrive so quickly.
“This batch of new students sure has some guts, violating the academy’s rules right from the start,” remarked a lazy-looking young man with long brown hair. He glanced at the crowd before chuckling.
“Senior, I didn’t break the rules. They acted first.” w.a.n.g Teng raised his hand, portraying himself as the victim.
“You must be Junior w.a.n.g Teng. I’ve heard a lot about you.” The brown-haired young man gave him a meaningful look and smiled.
w.a.n.g Teng was stunned. He didn’t expect himself to be so famous. Even the people from the academy arbitration a.s.sociation knew him.
“Alright, it’s clear what happened. Whoever initiated the physical aggression will have points deducted accordingly: 300 points for the first instigator, and 100 points for the others involved. Additionally, you all will be taken back for some education to familiarize yourselves with the academy rules to prevent any future violations,” the young man with brown hair smiled and didn’t say anything more to w.a.n.g Teng. With a sweeping gesture, he turned to the man with dragon horns and the others and asked, “Do any of you have any objections?”
The dragon-horned man’s expression turned ugly.
He didn’t do anything. One punch and 300 points were deducted.
He felt his heart aching.
This punch was a little expensive!
“No way, 100 points will be deducted!” The expressions of the people behind the dragon-horned man changed slightly. They were the most unfortunate ones as they didn’t even lift a finger, yet they were going to have 100 points deducted. Could there be anything more frustrating than this?
These people were all geniuses. Although they had been at the academy for a few days, not many of them had taken the time to read the academy rules carefully. At most, they looked at some critical points, which was why they foolishly decided to pick a fight with w.a.n.g Teng.
Of course, they didn’t expect w.a.n.g Teng to be so shameless and call the people from the arbitration a.s.sociation over directly.
“If you’re not convinced, you can try making a move.” The brown-haired young man smiled when he saw the dragon-horned man’s expression.
He knew the temperament of these talents. After all, he had been through this phase.
But, if they really acted, he would teach his juniors a lesson.
“My brother is a member of the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation…” The man with dragon horns was interrupted before he could finish his sentence.
“I know. Zhulong Ye, right? I know him. I recognized your race the moment I saw you,” the brown-haired young man replied nonchalantly.
The horned man felt the corners of his eyes twitching.
He knew that this brown-haired young man wasn’t afraid of his brother so there was no need to plead anymore.
“Can I speak to him?” The man with dragon horns looked at w.a.n.g Teng.
“Alright, since you’re from the Solar Dragon Race, I’ll give you some time to speak to him,” the brown-haired young man said.
“Thank you!” The man with dragon horns nodded to express his grat.i.tude. Then, he gave a look of contempt and said to w.a.n.g Teng, “I thought that you wouldn’t be afraid of a fight since you’re able to enter the Star Rankings. I didn’t expect you to find the academy arbitration a.s.sociation. It looks like I’ve overestimated you.”
“It doesn’t matter to me. Throughout my life, I have conducted myself without needing the approval of others,” w.a.n.g Teng said with a resolute sense of righteousness.
The man with dragon horns choked. He felt that he punched a ball of cotton.
Other talents would have been enraged by his words but w.a.n.g Teng didn’t seem to care about his reputation. He was extremely shameless.
“Pfft!” Yue Qiqiao burst out laughing. The anger she felt from the previous humiliation dispersed a little.
w.a.n.g Teng’s actions were always unexpected.
Although it didn’t seem to have caused any physical harm to the man with dragon horns, it exasperated him. She felt delighted for some reason.
The brown-haired man and the other members of the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation wore strange expressions on their faces too.
What do you mean by you’ve always conducted yourself without needing the approval of others?
How could a person be so shameless?
They didn’t believe him but they had to respect w.a.n.g Teng’s thick skin.
They had never seen such a talent before.
These geniuses had a high and mighty att.i.tude, putting their reputation above everything else. However, to w.a.n.g Teng, this wasn’t the case.
“Hmph!” The man with dragon horns snorted. “Don’t argue with me. You should know why I came here today. You don’t have the right to own that thing. I urge you to return it to the Solar Dragon Race. This matter isn’t over until you do that.”
Yue Qiqiao was stunned. What did w.a.n.g Teng take from the Solar Dragon Race? No wonder they came to look for him.
A sharp glint flashed past the brown-haired young man’s eyes. He was surprised.
At first, he thought that Zhulong Shan wanted to compete with w.a.n.g Teng because he had entered the Star Rankings. He didn’t expect there to be another story behind it.
w.a.n.g Teng took something from the Solar Dragon Race. This was incredible.
The Solar Dragon Race would never allow any outsiders to possess their things.
Also, looking at Zhulong Shan’s expression, the item w.a.n.g Teng took wouldn’t be something ordinary.
However, w.a.n.g Teng put on an innocent expression and said, “What are you saying? I don’t understand. Did I take a thing from the Solar Dragon Race? Don’t frame me.”
He even emphasized the word ‘thing”.
The muscles on Zhulong Shan’s face twitched uncontrollably. Anger flashed pa.s.sed his eyes as he glared at w.a.n.g Teng. “How dare you humiliate the Solar Dragon Race!”
“Did I humiliate the Solar Dragon Race?” w.a.n.g Teng looked at Yue Qiqiao and asked, “Did you hear me humiliating the Solar Dragon Race?”
Yue Qiqiao was silent for a moment. Then, she hesitated and said, “I don’t think so.”
She couldn’t tell at all!
But, looking at the other party’s expression, she felt that w.a.n.g Teng had probably humiliated his race.
“Alright, let’s stop here. I don’t have much time to waste,” the brown-haired young man waved his hand and said impatiently.
“Senior, have a safe trip.” w.a.n.g Teng said, “Thank you for upholding justice for weak juniors like us.”
The brown-haired young man looked at him strangely and said, “I haven’t seen someone as interesting as you in a long time. Let’s get to know each other. My name is Wu De.”
“Wu De!” Zhulong Shan shuddered. He exclaimed, “You’re that Wu De!”
“Hey, it looks like you know me.” Wu De glanced at Zhulong Shan and exclaimed in surprise.
“My brother mentioned Senior Wu De to me before. Senior Wu De, please forgive me for being rude just now,” Zhulong Shan said with a stiff expression. There was fear in his eyes.
He was puzzled. How did w.a.n.g Teng find this person? Were they related?
A normal student dispute wouldn’t have involved a member of the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation.
w.a.n.g Teng glanced at Zhulong Shan in surprise. The moment this person heard Wu De’s name, his att.i.tude changed entirely.
Mind you, he acted fearless and disregarded everyone. Even when the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation came, he wasn’t afraid.
Yet, he suddenly lowered his back to apologize.
The stark difference between his previous demeanor and his current att.i.tude caught them off their guards and left them unable to react in time.
Yue Qiqiao was flabbergasted too. She glanced at Zhulong Shan and then at Wu De. She seemed to understand something.
“No problem!” Wu De smiled and didn’t make things difficult for him.
“w.a.n.g Teng, I won’t make things difficult for you today because Senior Wu De is here. But next time, you won’t be so lucky. I will look for you. Remember my name, Zhulong Shan!” Zhulong Shan glanced meaningfully at w.a.n.g Teng, then flew towards the s.h.i.+p in the sky with Senior Wu De.
“You’re welcome to come again.” w.a.n.g Teng waved.
Zhulong Shan stopped in his tracks. His face turned black.
Wu De turned and glanced at w.a.n.g Teng. He smiled and entered the s.p.a.cecraft.
The group of martial warriors followed behind Wu De and entered the s.p.a.cecraft. The cabin door closed and the s.p.a.cecraft disappeared in front of w.a.n.g Teng and Yue Qiqiao in a blink of an eye.
“Hahaha…” Yue Qiqiao burst out laughing. “Didn’t you see his expression just now? His face was as black as the bottom of a pot.”
“Did you vent your anger?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.
“Erm…” Yue Qiqiao stopped laughing. She blinked and contemplated for a moment before replying, “Half of it. However, I’ll take care of the rest myself. You don’t have to do anything.”
“Impressive.” w.a.n.g Teng was stunned. Then, he gave Yue Qiqiao a thumbs up.
“Go ahead and laugh at me,” Yue Qiqiao said angrily.
“I’m not laughing at you. Instead, I admire you.” w.a.n.g Teng smiled. “Zhulong Shan should be a talent of the Solar Dragon Race. This race is very powerful. Not only do they have a powerful body, but they can also turn into Solar Dragons. Their eyes also have special abilities. If you meet them, you need to be careful.”
He told Yue Qiqiao about the characteristics of the Solar Dragon Race. This wasn’t a secret. Most formidable warriors knew about it.
After all, race talents were hard to conceal, especially for a big race like the Solar Dragon Race. It was only natural that others knew about their powers.
Thus, he took advantage of the situation and told Yue Qiqiao about it. This was considered a favor.
What’s more, he was the reason why Yue Qiqiao had a conflict with Zhulong Shan.
“Solar Dragon Race? I understand.” Yue Qiqiao nodded. Her gaze flickered slightly.
“Also, you heard what he said. He has an elder brother who is in the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation and is a council member. It looks like his status isn’t low. If we infuriate him, he might call him brother out,” w.a.n.g Teng reminded her.
“I know. However, this is the academy. They can’t possibly have everything their way here,” Yue Qiqiao remarked.
“That’s true.” w.a.n.g Teng nodded.
“If I can’t, I still have you.” Yue Qiqiao gave a sly smile.
“I think I should take back my words.” w.a.n.g Teng was caught between laughter and tears. A moment ago, he was complimenting Yue Qiqiao for her ambition. Now, she showed her true colors.
“I think you’ll make a reliable backer. All the best…” Yue Qiqiao laughed and said earnestly, “I’ll have to rely on you from now on!”
