The young man was still calm and confident that he will be able to get his hand on that Cla.s.s Water Elemental Core, so he then said, "Let me introduce myself, I am Dong Xia, the second prince of Dong-Min Continent."

Before the young man introduced himself as the second prince of the Dong-Min Continent, the crowd all thought he was just another young master from a rich and renowned family, but now the crowd was shocked to see him.

"Oh my! it"s really is Prince Xia!"

"I heard that he is extremely talented in martial arts"

"Right! Not only is he handsome but he is also so talented!"

The majority of them were either commoners or young Descendents of some rich family. If they could develop a friendly relationship with the prince then their future would surely be prosperous.

Many thought that Xiao Yang who looked to be a commoner would surely sell it right? One it would sell at a very high price and two, it"s would be a chance to gain some friendly relationship with the prince. It would be like hitting two birds with one stone.

"I sincerely apologize, but as I said before, I am not planning to sell the elemental core." Xiao Yang replied without a flinch of his emotion changing.

The crowd were shocked by his reply, such a great opportunity was right in front of him, yet he still turned it down as if it was nothing. Either he was crazy or he is also another prince of another nation that they just haven"t recognized yet.

The prince looked a bit upset, but he didn"t say anything. He couldn"t gain the item through speech nor could he gain it by force. In Thunderbolt City, all fighting is strictly prohibited and those who break the rules will be punished by the disciplinary Hall, it doesn"t matter what if you are a prince or a princess of a nation.

Xie Ying had already explained the rules to Xiao Yang, and so he thought that the prince would have no choice but to let them go.

Before he could move, another man"s voice could be heard among the silent crowd, "Aiyowei isn"t this my genius cousin, Chen Xiao Yang?"

A young-looking man soon emerged out of the crowd with a sinister smile, the man walked up to the prince then he humbly bowed down to him, "Your highness, it is my honor to be able to meet you."

Prince Xia squinted his eyes to look at the man, "Who are you?"

"Your highness, my name is Qian Ching, and that person over there is my cousin, Chen Xiao Yang." He then continued by saying with disdain, "It truly is a shame to say this, but he is an illegitimate son of our Qian family, but he is also the number one genius of DongHe City."

"Oh? Number one genius?" The prince looked confused, how can a b.a.s.t.a.r.d"s son be the number one genius?

Qian Ching smiled, then replied, "Yes, he is the number one champion of the Youth Tournament in DongHe City."

The crowd was infuriated by what they just heard, and looked at Xiao Yang with disdain.


"How arrogant number one genius? Just because you became the number one champion?"

"Yea! Everyone here is the number one champion otherwise how are we here?!"

"I thought he was someone with a powerful background like the prince, but it turns out his only a b.a.s.t.a.r.d"s son! Hha!"

"How dare he act so arrogant and highly in front of the prince?! Some b.a.s.t.a.r.d"s son wants to compare himself to the prince?"

Qian Ching hearing the crowds, smirked and quietly thought to himself, "Chen Xiao Yang, this is what you get for going against the Qian family. How dare you hurt my little brother Qian Lee?"

The girl next to the prince seem to be getting impatient and so she moaned, "Your highness, I really wanted that elemental core."

Prince Xia lifted a linger against her lip and with a quiet but charming voice he said, "Shhh, everything that you desire will be yours. Don"t worry".

He then turned his gaze back to Xiao Yang, flapping his hand-fan he said, "Sell the elemental core to me now, not only will I forget about your previous rudeness but I will also reward you handsomely."

Xiao Yang found it quite laughable, he used to be the most powerful grandmaster that ever roamed the world, no one dared to frighten him, not even the emperors. But now a mere prince was threatening him to sell his stuff and some commoner dared to mock him?

Xiao Yang then replied coldly, "No."

Qian Xian who was next to him was starting to get worried, although she feels infuriated by the criticism, she doesn"t want to have Xiao Yang endangered. There are still ways that people could harm him, such as during a school hunting at the Thunderbolt Academy, there won"t be enough elders to watch over the whole forest.

The crowds however were getting more infuriated and annoyed by Xiao Yang"s display of arrogance and naiveness.

Prince Xia was visibly mad right now, his eyes were burning like fires. He had never in his life seen someone so disobedience in front of him, and never had he thought it was a mere low-life commoner who disobeyed him.

While still gazing at Xiao Yang with killing intent, he clenched both of his fists and a dominating pressure suddenly appeared inside the room. Everyone that was in the room felt like a large boulder was strapped onto their back, they could barely stand onto their feet.

The crowds suddenly started to shout in excitement and admiration.

"Martial Aura!"

"No wonder the prince is a genius of martial arts, he could even stimulate martial aura at such a young age!"

"Martial aura represents one"s talent in martial arts, the heavier the pressure is the more talented that person is in the understanding of martial arts."

"Let see how that arrogant brat still dares to disobey the prince now!"

The crowd all turned their gaze back to Xiao Yang, but what they saw next shocked them. Xiao Yang and Qian Xian who was being directly hit by the aura was unaffected, they were standing there as if there wasn"t any pressure at all.

"Such a weak aura and you dare try to show it off in front of me?" Xiao Yang silently laughed to himself, he was exerting his own martial aura but he also capped it to the same level to Prince Xia.

"Is that all you got?" Xiao Yang asked coldly.

"I don"t believe it!" Prince Xia thought to himself, he then proceeded to increase the intensity of the aura to the max he could possibly output.

The crowds by now were all kneeling on the ground with their hands on the floor to support their body, only the high-cla.s.s mage was still standing.

Even with such pressure, Xiao Yang and Qian Xian were still standing on there feet, there was no sign of any struggles.

Qian Xian was dumbfounded, everyone was visibly seen struggling under the dominating pressure, but she felt nothing at all.

Prince Xia was unable to continue exerting his martial aura, so he quickly retracted it. He wanted to pull out his sword and slice Xiao Yang"s throat but at alas here couldn"t.

Everyone felt the pressure disappeared and so they slowly got back up from the floor, they were still shocked by what had just transpired. If Xiao Yang was able to withstand the martial aura then it would indicate that he himself is a genius of martial art.

Qian Ching also shocked by Xiao Yang"s ability, but he still hasn"t gotten what he wanted yet. "d.a.m.n it, I can"t let him just leave like that."

Qian Ching thought for a moment then his face quickly smiled viciously again, "Xiao Yang do you dare to challenge his highness to a gambling bet?!"

"Xiao Yang, if you lose you would have to hand over all of the elemental core you have on you, you also have to get on your knees and bark like a dog three times."
