Chapter 1001: No Second Person In This World
Corinton was also famous in the car racing scene.
Why was that? Why was he so renowned here even when he did not race?
Well, that was because the sports cars Corinton modified were the best of the bests. Any racer would have the dream goal or wish to own a sports car modified by Master Corinton himself.
This explained why the old man was esteemed even in the car racing scene.
Moreover, Corinton had a peculiarity. People who were in the know were all aware that no money—no matter how much you had—could buy a modified sports car by that man. It all depended on his mood; if he were in a bad mood or if he simply disliked you, he would not touch the car regardless.
These were all mentioned previously.
That said, the reason Corinton was able to act however he wished was because of his skills. He had what it took to be presumptuous and take his liberties about it!
Therefore, when Shan Tiansheng and his friends heard that someone like this was bowing down to ask for Yun Jian as his master, they were overwhelmed with shock.
“Huh? That old man Corinton is still asking Sister Jian to be his master?”
To Shan Tiansheng and the other guys, the fact that Corinton was begging for Yun Jian to be his master was startling, but Alluring Demon merely sighed at his persistence.
It seemed to her that Corinton wanting to become Yun Jian’s disciple was nothing out of ordinary.
“Sister Jian, that old man is determined! Do you wanna just accept him?” Alluring Demon crossed her hands in front of her chest casually and smiled at Yun Jian with squinty eyes. There was a soft sparkle to her eyes that a mirthful glow bounced off them.
“No.” Came Yun Jian’s one-word reply.
Shan Tiansheng and others shuddered again at Yun Jian’s curt rejection. That was Master Corinton! The utmost famous engineer across the world!
Had it been any one of them, forget Corinton wanting to become their apprentice, they would have been overjoyed if the man could meet them.
And what did Yun Jian say?
“Why? Why aren’t you taking Master Corinton as your apprentice, Yun Jian?” Shan Tiansheng asked in befuddlement. If she had accepted Master Corinton as her disciple, she could have him modify her any sports car; it was a matter of course, an expected exchange…
“Because…” Yun Jian squinted slightly as she turned to look at Shan Tiansheng. Her eyes were gleaming with an unmistakable radiance.
“He’s not up to the level!” Yun Jian’s voice rang like a light whistle in the next second.
Her words stunned the guys.
What did she mean Master Corinton was not up to the standard? If even he was not up to par, who else in this world could achieve said qualification?
Yun Jian smiled after she spoke and turned around to leave first.
“Xiao… Xiao Xuanxuan, uh… your little sister is SG—the king of car racing, yes, but Master Corinton isn’t famed for nothing either! Talking about Master Corinton like this, isn’t she too…” Shan Tiansheng spoke up hesitantly.
“Kid, that’s a high pedestal you’re putting the old man on. Corinton is barely anyone significant when it comes to Sister Jian.” Alluring Demon threw them a wink and laughed before she went after Yun Jian and left the place in large strides.
What Alluring Demon said felt like a thunderbolt to Shan Tiansheng and the group. That was not all, though, as Ge Xuan could not help telling his best friend, after hearing the whole thing, “Uh… Tiansheng, I used to think that Master Corinton is the most outstanding engineer in this world too but ever since I’ve driven the Ferrari sports car my little sister’s modified, I…”
“The Ferrari sports car my younger sister’s modified could go double the speed compared to the sports car Master Corinton’s worked on!”
The sports cars that went under Master Corinton’s ministrations were already twice faster than average sports car. That was supposed to be the maximum limit. However, for an engineer to enhance the cars to be twice faster than those the man had modified…
There would hardly be a second person in this world who was capable of doing it!
Shan Tiansheng and the others dropped their jaws.
