Chapter 250: I can’t Surpa.s.s You
Dugu Heng finally reacted.
He placed his hands behind his back and sneered at the first elder. His face was originally cold and arrogant. “I don’t need you to think too much about this matter. My daughter naturally has to be outstanding!”
If this was said in the past, many people would definitely mock Dugu Heng. However, this time, no one dared to say anything else.
Dugu Heng had his reasons for being arrogant. Su Huiqing was not bad to begin with.
S+ talent!
There was nothing wrong with calling her a genius.
However, the second elder felt awkward. Thinking back on what he had said before the test, he said: ‘Master, your bloodline is not low either. I think Missy must have surpa.s.sed you. I wonder what level can she reach.’
Now, the reality was that she had given him a harsh slap on the face. Su Huiqing was such a proud person. If she said she was better than him, she was better than him!
“Then, let’s partic.i.p.ate. I have no objection.” Su Huiqing casually turned her head to look at the second elder and smiled naturally. Her face was as calm as before, and her eyelashes were slightly lowered, casting a shadow over her eyes.
She didn’t seem arrogant at all. It was as if she wasn’t the one who had reached S-rank. Her tone was even more natural. It seemed like victory was already in her hands.
The rest of the people in the hall had unfathomable expressions.
“Master, seven elders. The Bai Family, the Ye Family, and the Yu Family… have all sent people over.” At this moment, the guard interrupted the silence in the hall. “They are here to ask about the phenomenon in the testing hall.”
Dugu Heng and the first elder exchanged a look. They didn’t look surprised at all. It was as if they had expected the families to send someone over.
In the history of the International a.s.sociation, there was hardly anyone who could reach S-rank. It was never recorded in the history books of the various families.
Thus, no one knew what it would be like to reach S-rank.
Su Huiqing was still the first. This was the first time the Dugu Family saw something like this. It turned out that even if she surpa.s.sed A-rank, there would still be a rare phenomenon.
Such a phenomenon naturally could not be hidden from those families. After all, anyone with a bit of skill would be able to sense such power.
“The compet.i.tion in the afternoon shall be moved tomorrow.” The first elder glanced at the second elder who was about to speak. His eyes hardened, and the second elder swallowed the words he wanted to say. “I will go with Master to meet those family heads.”
Su Huiqing touched her chin. Seeing that she has no reason to be around, she took out her phone and sent Uncle Chen a message. She wanted to meet Uncle Chen in the afternoon.
“Missy.” Seeing that she was about to leave, Dugu Ji-An—who was deep in thought—couldn’t help but stop her. He cupped his hands respectfully. “This talent is unprecedented in the Dugu Family.”
Su Huiqing paused and smiled calmly. “I’m already 19. I can’t compare to you guys.”
As she spoke, her fingers brushed past her eyes casually. She looked at the surveillance camera in the testing hall.
Seeing this, Gideon and Apollo could not help but be taken aback. No way, how could they be discovered like this?
Apollo closed his laptop and looked at Gideon expressionlessly. “My King is too scheming. She can fight the entire younger generation alone, and yet she’s still acting like she doesn’t know anything!”
Thinking about how he had fought her before, he felt pity for those ignorant children.
Gideon didn’t answer. Instead, he leaned against the sofa in deep thought. “Don’t you find it strange? The bloodline of a big family is most particular about inheritance.
“This is also the reason why those big families would usually only marry big families. Su Ruohua is just an ordinary family in Green City. Why is the bloodline of our King so heaven-defying?”
Apollo was also stunned. He didn’t know about these major families.
“…mutated?”
Gideon looked at him like an idiot.
…
On the other side, Su Huiqing and Dugu Ji-An were already outside the door. The butler happened to be looking for Dugu Heng, but he couldn’t find him.
He had no choice but to look for Su Huiqing. “It’s just outside. The media is already in an uproar. The Dugu Family’s phenomenon just now wasn’t hidden.”
The internet was already in an uproar.
“Do you still have to ask about such matters?” Su Huiqing glanced at the butler with a cold expression.
“Go find a few doctors from Monster University or people from the research inst.i.tute to write these phenomena in the direction of the sun’s electromagnetic wave. The more realistic they write, the better.”
The butler was stunned. He cupped his hands at Su Huiqing and left without stopping. Before he left, he looked at Su Huiqing as if it was his first time meeting her.
It was not his fault for being so quick-witted today. It was because Su Huiqing had given him too much shock.
Dugu Ji-An still could not hold back. He glanced sideways at Su Huiqing. “Missy, the compet.i.tion is not a small matter. Those disciples might not hold back. You don’t have to take the risk.”
He didn’t wish for Su Huiqing to be injured in this compet.i.tion and waste her talent, even though it was a waste not to realize that bloodline at such a young age.
“It’s not a risk.” Su Huiqing pressed her lips together and took out a few bottles of potion. “Do you see this? I have a treasure.”
These were all given to her by Dugu Heng.
Seeing her reaction, Dugu Ji-An didn’t say anything else. Instead, he chuckled and looked at Su Huiqing with extremely dark eyes. “I think you and the head of the family know your limits. In the future, we might meet at the same place.”
The same place?
Su Huiqing narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.
Unbeknownst to them, the young disciples following behind the second elder shouted, “Master actually gave those potions to Missy!”
Dugu Xing pursed her lips. Even if she wanted a bottle of high-level potion, it would be extremely difficult. She didn’t expect Dugu Heng to give it to Su Huiqing just like that.
The second elder looked even worse. He already had a bad impression of Su Huiqing.
Seeing that Dugu Heng didn’t care about his family, his face darkened. “The head of the Dugu Family has gone crazy this time. He actually disregarded the Dugu Family’s future and went crazy over a person who has none.
“No matter how talented Missy is, it’s useless now. How can she compare to you? He actually gave her all these bottles of high-level potions. Does he still care about the Dugu Family?
“Order them to distribute the remaining potions to Young Master An and Xing’er. The Dugu Family has always respected the strong. No matter how high her bloodline is, she is just an ordinary person. She cannot surpa.s.s you!”
