1598 The End Of The Competition! Bringing People Together! (2)

“Ouch!” Tu Xiaoba wanted to dodge but it was too late. She shouted after being pinched, “Sister Yue, forgive me!”

“I won’t forgive you this time!” Yue Qiqiao gritted her teeth and glared at the rabbit girl. This is infuriating. Is her heart black?

The skittish girl hurried to explain, “Sister Yue, I’ll never do this again. I only said it because he’s handsome, talented and powerful. I’m not doing this for my own sake.”

The former gave some careful thought to the idea. The fellow was indeed handsome, talented, and powerful. He’s just a little evil…

Wait, what am I thinking!

She snapped out of her reverie, almost falling for her friend’s trick. She glared at the latter and said, “Do you think I’d believe you?”

Situ Wan’er walked over and thumped Tu Xiaoba’s forehead, then said with a smile, “Little rabbit, where do you get all these bad ideas from? Wang Teng has a fiancée. Why are you matchmaking randomly?”

“Can’t you marry as many people as you want as long as all parties agree?” The rabbit girl asked.

Everyone: …

What kind of frightening words are those?

Yue Qiqiao was speechless. Is Tu Xiaoba asking me to share a man with another woman? Wait, what did Situ Wan’er say just now? Wang Teng has a fiancée, so it’s best if we don’t play matchmaker randomly?

Is my reputation not as important as Wang Teng’s?

“Whether he has a fiancée or not is completely unrelated to me. We have no ties whatsoever; please don’t make fun of me anymore,” she replied calmly, having recovered her composure.

“You’re right. Stop joking around.” Situ Wan’er blinked and smiled gently at Tu Xiaoba.

The latter looked back and forth between the other two women. Both looked gentle and elegant, yet she could smell gunpowder and smoke between them for some reason. It was scary.

The atmosphere wasn’t right.

The little rabbit shivered in fear.

Her pupils were quickly moving left and right as her mind worked furiously. Then, she gave them an innocent expression and replied, “You’re right. I’m the one at fault.”

The other two replied with a smile after hearing the response.

Leng Qianxue watched them from the side, her eyes showing a strange glimmer.

The rabbit girl stuck out her tongue and slowly inched towards her two sisters again, showering them with praises to appease them.

Wang Teng didn’t know he had almost been the trigger for a girl fight. He was still talking to Gaunt.

The hero decided to have a good chat with the poison expert since he rarely met warriors with that specialty. Furthermore, the fellow was a genius.

Gaunt didn’t want to talk to him, but then he felt shocked by the topics mentioned by the young hero, covering several poisons. Why does he understand poisons so well?

“I’m an alchemist and a poison master!” Wang Teng smiled.

There were many similarities between alchemists and poison masters. After all, medicine could save but could also kill people.

Gaunt felt enlightened. He didn’t think that the champion would also have expertise in poisons since he already controlled enough Forces. Adding poison to the list made him practically a monster!

Moreso, he shared the same passion and understanding as when it came to toxins. He quickly felt that he had found a friend with a common interest.

Of course, he wouldn’t let down his guard towards the hero just like that; he still remembered how the guy had left him battered and bruised.

However, he couldn’t help himself whenever he talked about poisons.

It was the typical fellow who claimed to be against something while his actions betrayed him.

The Second Prince and the others walked over, surprised to see how the two were happily carrying a conversation.

They realized what topic they were talking about. No wonder Gaunt couldn’t control himself.

“Wang Teng, you’re a grandmaster alchemist, aren’t you?” said the young prince.

The hero nodded in response.

“What, you’re a grandmaster alchemist?” Gaunt was stunned. He couldn’t believe the fellow had actually reached the qualification at such a young age.

Leng Qianxue, Su Jianchen, and Yue Qiqiao were also shocked. They stared at the hero absentmindedly.

Wang Teng smiled and replied calmly, “Don’t look at me like that. I’m just a grandmaster.”

“Just a grandmaster?!” Everyone rolled their eyes.

Come on, a grandmaster is not a small thing. What do you mean by only? Bragging much?

The poison expert couldn’t look down on Wang Teng anymore. At first he had just felt that the hero had a decent understanding of poisons which made him someone worth talking to. He didn’t expect him to be a grandmaster.

Compared to a grandmaster, his poison mastery was nothing.

He suddenly understood why the earthling was unaffected by his poison during the battle. Damn it, he’s my nemesis!

The poisoner’s attitude had a complete change over. He decided it was better to forget about revenge for the pummeling during the competition. The guy wasn’t someone he could provoke!

Besides, he felt greatly enlightened by their conversation and knew how to appreciate kindness. Since Wang Teng had taken the initiative to talk to him, he wouldn’t be the fool and push him away.

Having that thought in mind, he gave the Second Prince a grateful glance.

The prince was a smooth and smart person. A single sentence had allowed him to understand the crux of the situation and prevented him from a future gaffe that would end up in suffering.

The hero was also aware of the prince’s intent, and took the chance to reveal his grandmaster status.

The atmosphere became even more harmonious.

There weren’t any deep seated grudges between them, so everyone became more willing to befriend the champion.

Even Yue Qiqiao and Su Jianchen said a few words, aiming to become part of Wang Teng’s friend circle.

The Second Prince smiled in secret.

All of them were geniuses from the Great Qian Empire. He hoped that they would remain on amicable terms, helping one another once they entered the Seven Stellar Academies.

It was a fact that there would be talents from other planetary sectors. Being at odds amongst them would only benefit outsiders.

Actually, if not for the Crown Prince’s crisis, he could have been the one bringing them together.

Given the noble’s talent and status, none of the other candidates would say no.

Alas, accidents did happen in life.

The Second Prince could only sigh in his heart.

Fortunately, there was Wang Teng.

The hero was also part of the military; his status and identity were both extraordinary. To top it off, he had great abilities and a terrifying talent. That was enough to convince the crowd and make them respect him, maybe even more than the Crown Prince himself. He could become a great connector.

He just needed to make things happen.

Whether Wang Teng could turn from a connector into their leader would depend on himself.

Just then, a light screen descended from the sky, landing on Ring 1. Seven figures appeared.

The hero blinked. They were the seven invigilators from the Seven Stellar Academies!

The Second Prince quickly looked over. All the finalists had their guesses.

“We are the invigilators from the Seven Stellar Academies!” said a voice coming from the light screen. The geniuses were stunned, and soon their eyes lit up.

“The League of Talents has successfully come to an end!

“Congratulations on entering the top thousand ranking. All of you emerged from a series of tough battles, showing us the brilliance and might that talented martial warriors should possess.

“One of you even entered the Star Rankings!”

The seven invigilators looked at the person mentioned.

Wang Teng!

The others also turned to look at him.

“That’s right, it’s Wang Teng!”

“Entering the Star Rankings is the ultimate recognition. However, Wang Teng has earned it. We have all witnessed his performance.

“But, entering the Star Rankings also means that more challenges will follow. We hope that you can remain firm in your path and rise to great heights, just like the other talents listed on the rankings!”

Everyone was dumbstruck. None of them thought that the invigilators would sing such high praises for the hero.

Rise to great heights!

How far will Wang Teng be able to go?

This is astonishing!

Another voice continued, “At the same time, I also believe that many of you will become renowned powerhouses of the universe in the distant future.

“This is just the start of your journey; a long path lies ahead. The Seven Stellar Academies have now opened the doors to you. Whether you become an exalted figure throughout the universe, fade into obscurity, or fail halfway, it depends solely upon yourselves.

“Keep on climbing. Your martial arts’ path has just begun!

“We wish all of you… success in your journey!”
