People who worked hard were worth respecting!
w.a.n.g Teng’s image rose in their hearts.
“Master w.a.n.g Teng, I’ll apply for the grandmaster-level runemaster a.s.sessment now.” Fan Taining regained his calm.
“I’ll apply for the smithery a.s.sessment for you,” Master Blacksmith Hobson said.
“Yes, you can. However, we agreed that if we get the reward, we’ll split half with Master w.a.n.g Teng,” Fan Taining said.
w.a.n.g Teng glanced at Master Fan Taining in surprise. Of course, he was happy to have someone watching his back.
“No problem. My main aim is to befriend a rare talent like Master w.a.n.g Teng. The reward is a bonus,” Master Hobson said righteously.
w.a.n.g Teng looked at him strangely. He couldn’t tell that this humble-looking Master Hobson was quite good at talking.
Master Fan Taining and Dr. Leonardo looked at Master Hobson as if it was their first time knowing him. They were astonished too.
“Cough, what about the alchemy a.s.sessment?” Master Hobson coughed awkwardly.
“I’ll look for my master and ask him to help find an alchemist as your recommender,” Fan Taining said after contemplating.
He looked at w.a.n.g Teng and asked, “Master w.a.n.g Teng, what do you think?”
“I’m fine with it,” w.a.n.g Teng replied.
Of course, he was fine with it! There was someone running errands for him!
Master Fan Taining and the others immediately went to apply for the grandmaster-level a.s.sessment. These were three grandmaster-level t.i.tles!
Just thinking about it made their hearts shudder. Fan Taining wondered what kind of monster he had referred to the Secondary Career Alliance.
…
Fan Taining and the others were so efficient that it shocked w.a.n.g Teng. Or rather, he had underestimated the importance of having a person with three grandmaster t.i.tles in the Secondary Career Alliance.
When the grandmasters in the Secondary Career Alliance heard that there was a candidate who wanted to take three grandmaster-level a.s.sessments today, they were flabbergasted. They put down whatever matters they had and came to meet w.a.n.g Teng with Fan Taining.
Fortunately, there were many grandmasters in the Secondary Career Alliance today or they wouldn’t be able to gather enough people for the a.s.sessments.
At this moment, in a lobby especially for grandmasters, the grandmasters of the Secondary Career Alliance were attending to w.a.n.g Teng. When they saw his face, they were dumbstruck again.
This was a young man!
He was too young!
As grandmasters, their spirits were all powerful. One look and they could tell that w.a.n.g Teng hadn’t hit his twenties yet.
Fan Taining was in a rush, so he forgot to tell the grandmasters w.a.n.g Teng’s real age. This was why they were caught unprepared when they saw him for the first time.
They felt that Fan Taining was fooling around with them after seeing the real person!
Could this young man be a grandmaster in three fields?
Wasn’t this a joke?
There was a white-haired man with three eyes who looked around 30 walking in front of Fan Taining. He had a third eye on his forehead. He looked like the fake baron w.a.n.g Teng saw in the past. However, w.a.n.g Teng knew that there were many races in the universe with three eyes, so he wasn’t surprised.
The white-haired man turned back and glared at Fan Taining. He found him unreliable.
This young man is a grandmaster in three fields? Who are you trying to fool?
“Master, I’m not lying. w.a.n.g Teng’s rune mastery is very high. I managed to achieve a breakthrough after receiving some enlightenment from him,” Fan Taining said carefully. He was as timid as a child in front of his master.
“What about his smithery and alchemy? How much do you know?” the white-haired man with three eyes asked angrily through voice transmission.
He wouldn’t say it outright. With his status and position, he wouldn’t step on anyone’s face, especially when that person was a talent introduced by his disciple.
Actually, even if w.a.n.g Teng wasn’t a grandmaster in three fields, just being a master-level runemaster younger than twenty meant that he had a higher mastery than Fan Taining. It was enough to prove his talent, and he was happy to accept this talented junior under his wings.
However, the boasting went a little too far!
Three grandmaster t.i.tles? Where did they get the guts to say this? Weren’t they afraid of slapping their faces?
“Erm… I don’t know much about his alchemy and smithery mastery,” Fan Taining replied in embarra.s.sment after a moment of silence.
The white-haired man with three eyes glared at him. Unfilial disciple, you’re creating trouble for me!
“However, I believe that he will pa.s.s,” Fan Taining promised with a stern expression.
“Are you sure?” The white-haired man with three eyes frowned.
Fan Taining didn’t have great talent, but he respected him greatly. He would never lie to him in serious matters.
Could w.a.n.g Teng really be a rare talent who managed to achieve three grandmaster levels at a young age?
“Master, w.a.n.g Teng probably hails from an underdeveloped planet. He thought that there are many people with three grandmaster t.i.tles here, so he worked hard in reaching this stage. That’s also the reason why he managed to achieve such astonis.h.i.+ng results at a young age,” Fan Taining said confidently.
“… Really?” The white-haired man with three eyes was speechless. “Are you trying to fool me?”
“No way. I’ll never lie to you.”
“I’ll believe you for now.” The white-haired man with three eyes glanced at him.
“Alfred, is the young man your disciple referred to really a grandmaster in three fields?” The other grandmasters started asking him through voice transmission.
“Don’t ask me. I got pulled by Fan Taining here too.” Alfred replied, “Since we’re here, we’ll know after testing him. Let’s start from my runemaster a.s.sessment first.”
Since Fan Taining was the one who started this matter, as his master, Alfred had to bear whatever consequences it might cause.
w.a.n.g Teng noticed their reactions, but he remained quiet. He knew that some things couldn’t be explained with words. Ability was the best proof.
After some time, the white-haired man with three eyes in front of Fan Taining opened his mouth, “I’m Fan Taining’s master, Alfred. We have processed your application. Are you okay with taking the rune a.s.sessment first?”
“Grandmaster Alfred!”
He mustn’t be impolite to a grandmaster. w.a.n.g Teng bowed to the other party using their empire’s etiquette. “I’m fine with this. We can start.”
Alfred looked at w.a.n.g Teng’s humble and confident expression and started to believe his disciple a little. He gave him a kind nod.
“Follow me.” Alfred led the way. There were two other rune grandmasters moving along with them. One had green skin and three silver patterns on his face. The other was a human who seemed to be in his fifties.
They were the three grandmasters who would be a.s.sessing w.a.n.g Teng this time.
The grandmaster-level a.s.sessment room was not far away from the lobby. It was just next door. After all, grandmasters must be treated properly.
When w.a.n.g Teng walked in, he realized that this a.s.sessment room was extravagant. There were all sorts of facilities here, all prepared for him alone. This was incomparable to the master-level a.s.sessment.
