Chapter 170 He Got Me, He Got My Clan!

William recalled that in the final battle before the world fell, that dude was one of the famous figures at the academy by then.

He sole-handedly fought an army of monsters who were trying to get their way to chase the runners from the academy. Thanks to his efforts, people like William managed to escape from this carnage with their lives.

William didn't know if Peter was the same person he had in mind or was related to him in some way. Yet William knew such courageous acts came at the price of losing that dude's life.

William didn't like to owe anyone debts. Even if Peter wasn't that dude from his memories, he was still related to him. and that already told William a lot about what calibre this young spirit master in front of him was made of.

So, he decided to keep Peter close, while keeping a closer eye over Tod.

"Hahahaha, I heard otherwise," Peter laughed for a second before adding, "welcome to year two class. You deserve being here."

Unlike Tod, Peter kept his distance and cupped his hands in respect towards Berry. The latter nodded in silence as she was still taken aback by what Tod did.

"See who is here, it's our little and retarded dragon girl, hahahaha!"

Just before William would chat with Peter and others, such a despicable voice appeared all of sudden from another direction of the hall.

William turned his head and couldn't help but narrow his eyes. It was none other than Guanin. And he was heading towards them with a large number of spirit masters, looking for trouble.

William couldn't help but steal a gaze towards Berry who was next to him. And as he expected, her face told him that she planned to create a scene.

"And do you see that thin kid over there? He was a porter not long ago and now he is in our class acting like our colleague. Hey kid, I need someone to carry my bag for me. Why don't you come here and do it like a loyal dog? I'll give you enough crystals for that, hahahaha."

"Guanin! That damn snake!"

"He is acting all high and mighty because he is thinking the Long clan got it bad this time."

"He is the one behind the rumours circulating in the academy about us."

"Not only him, but his entire clan disciples as well!"

William listened to these whispering voices. He already was aware of that, but there was something that he didn't get.

Guanin seemed to go after him, not against Berry! He expected Guanin to focus solely on the Long clan disciples, including Berry. However, this snake opened his fangs wide at his face.

'It seems this bastard and his clan are trying to create trouble for me,' William thought to himself, preparing himself for an imminent clash with Guanin and his gang.

There were two explanations for such weird actions. First, Guanin knew the truth about what happened at the Long clan, and how they emerged unscathed from such disaster.

And that meant Guanin was afraid of the Long clan's disciples and decided to pick on the soft bone in their group, which was William.

As for the second reason, it might be for the latest clash between William and Guanin's patriarch.

Even if the patriarch proved to be such a bitter loser and decided to target William for openly exposing his true colours, William didn't regret any of what he said earlier.

Guanin and his clan were considered traitors in his eyes. Even William suspected the one to steal the techniques from Berry back then to belong to their camp.

And that meant the instigator of all this crisis came from their clan or a clan affiliated to them. And that wasn't only all!

As traitors, the moves against any target around them would be known to these dirty folks. That simply meant that the Bronze Lizard clan knew about the attack on the Long clan.

William knew this, and that made him want to take revenge even more over this bunch of dirty spirit masters.

If Guanin came seeking trouble, then William wouldn't hide and would welcome such a challenge with courage.

Against everyone's expectations, William slowly stepped forward and stood in front of Berry and others, welcoming the all hostile Guanin with a calm look on his face.

From the look on his face, one could see a smug smile that held mockery rather than fear or anger.

"I was indeed a porter," William said in a loud tone before laughing, "and that means you are on par with me now. What is it kiddo? Do you want to exercise your lazy body a little? Come, I have shoes that need attention and care. Come on, don't be shy, they are all dirty and covered in blood of those monsters we killed back there at Long clan."

"You… Do you want to die?" Guanin's face was unsightly and not pleasant to the eye.

"If you have the ability then show me," William laughed, without any speck of fear or hesitation in his tone.

"Know your limit, porter! You have no backing!"

"Who said I need backing to sweep the floor with your face? It's just a sport for me. Come, let me see what you got, that if you dare!"

"..."

Guanin's body trembled when he saw William's firm eyes. They were filled with bloodlust, and a threatening feeling that made Guanin unable to even speak a single word back.

His patriarch asked him to cause trouble for William at every corner, but mainly at the classes. So even if he wanted to, he wouldn't dare to even initiate a duel against him, fearing to let this snowball and involve others of the Long clan who held a grudge against him.

"Who said he got no backing?" Just as Guanin was trying to get a better hold on himself, what he feared happened. Berry stepped up and stood next to William, "he got me, he got my clan!"
