Chapter 32: The Ranking on Test Stele
The throng raised their heads and looked forward. Surrounded by the crowd, a young man in silver robe aged sixteen or seventeen moved towards the Test Stele. A lightening mark on the middle between his eyebrows shocked the crowd.
With an innate thunder body and brilliant talent, the young man had been already well-known throughout the Huaxia Alliance. He was so prominent at this age that his arrogance seemed to engulf everyone at the present. As he passed by, the crowd in all directions moved backwards and stared at him with admiring and adoring eyes.
Teng Yingjie, a brilliant and talented young man in the Huaxia Alliance, was so sought-after that many masters wanted to take him as a core disciple. With his hands on his back, he projected an image of a great master.
“Right here!” He came up to the gigantic Test Stele and clenched his fists with a flick of arms. At that moment, an astonishing sound deeply struck the crowd. The rumble of the thunder and light golden shine erupted from his body, which seemed to create an innate flash of lightening that burst out with his breathing. The scene was absolutely a striking anomaly.
“Rumbling!”
The gigantic Test Stele withstood his thump. While a big bang burst out, a horrible string of figures unfolded before everyone’s eyes which seemed to be congratulating the birth of a genius.
“Oh my God, 830 horsepower!”
“He gets a rank of 19th with his awakening potential.”
“That’s amazing! Teng Yingjie! This famous young man really has a bright future!”
The crowd were in an uproar and everyone was admiring him. Once this matter spread out, Teng Yingjie's prestige would resound throughout Huaxia Alliance. A promising future to fame and power should be laid open to him!
“Ha-ha, long time no see, my man. Your cultivation is mightier than ever before. That’s wonderful!”
The crowd turned their heads and looked to Tao Tianhua. Striding towards the man who looked distinguished and extraordinary, Teng Yingjie said gladly, “Brother Tianhua, it’s you! I don’t expect to meet you here. I wanna show my gratitude to you for the elixirs you refined for me.”
Tao Tianhua, a God’s favored person, was a second-level chemist. He had a full flush of success at Huaxia Alliance. Depending on his title alone, he was qualified enough to attract all genius to associate with him.
He smiled arrogantly, “It’s not worth mentioning. Anything you need in the future, just tell me.”
“Thank you so much.”
Teng Yingjie smiled without a single word. While glancing at Bai Mengying, he turned happy at once, and then said quickly, “It’s you, Mengying. If grandpa Bai had not ordered you to cultivate at the remote rubbishing place, I would not have to wait for so many years.”
Those who came from Base No.9 felt cross. They admired the strength of Tang, but it was so excessive that he insulted Base No.9.
“What did you say?” Bai Mengying shouted angrily, “Rubbishing place? If not protected by ten bases, Huaxia City could not be so peaceful. So, watch your mouth.”
Teng Yingjie’s face turned blue because Bai Mengying scolded him in public. He felt a fire burning in his heart. How could she humiliate and disgrace him so?
The surrounding girls who adored Teng glared at Bai Mengying furiously. However, when they noticed that even the loose gown could not hide her charming body curves, all the girls felt frustrated. To be honest, she had an unparalleled shape. In a few years, she would be an extraordinary beauty.
“Bai Mengying, come home with me immediately!” An overbearing look flushed on Teng Yingjie’s face, and he snapped undoubtedly.
“What a joke! It’s none of your business, leave me alone.” Bai Mengying snorted chillingly. Apparently, she was not interested in Teng who was bossy and haughty.
Teng Yingjie thundered angrily and reached out his hand to grab her shoulders strongly, “Damn it! How dare you talk back to me! You are my fiancée! Everything about you is mine! I said let’s go home!”
Xiang Yang looked livid as Tao Tianhua laughed and said, “This is fun. Teng Yingjie has such prestige at a young age. He does have an uncompromising style of doing things.”
“Bullshit! I am not your fiancée! Don’t take my grandpa’s drunken talks seriously!”
Bai Mengying got furious. Beams of powerful light burst out from her charming body, releasing formidable power of Destiny Spring. To Su Yan's surprise, Bai Mengying had reached the third level of Destiny Spring Realm, while Xiang Yang just reached the second.
One who achieved the third level of Destiny Spring Realm or above would become a core disciple of Huaxia College. There were 9 levels in Destiny Spring Realm; each was very hard to break through and every breakthrough would bring great power increase.
"How dare you not behave yourself! You want to fight with me?"
For he had not reached the Realm of Destiny Spring, Teng Yingjie felt flustered that he couldn’t compete with Bai Mengying.
However, Teng Yingjie didn’t need to confront her powerful strength himself. An elder man suddenly released his energy that was mightier than Bai Mengying’s, and he rapidly cast a great seal with his hands to suppress Bai Mengying’s power.
"Humph! Let me catch you and teach you how to be a good wife."
Teng Yingjie couldn't take his greedy eyes off her perfect body shape and was about to seize her shoulder. At that moment, quick as lightning, an insubstantial palm attack hindered Teng Yingjie just when he touched Bai Mengying.
Bai Mengying's heart beat rapidly out of fear. She looked at Su Yan with grateful eyes.
“Who the hell are you?”
Teng Yingjie got so exasperated and shouted at Su Yan, "Damn you! How dare you stand in my way. You’re courting death!"
"Who authorized you to act wildly in Huaxia City?" Su Yan stared at Teng Yingjie and rebuked, "Are there any law in your world?"
"The law?"
There was a cold glint in Teng Yingjie’s eyes. He said in an extremely domineering tone, "I am the law!"
Teng Yingjie did not favor the people of all the major bases. He thought that these people came to Huaxia City to carve up their resources and suck away the essence of heaven and earth which belonged exclusively to inhabitants in Huaxia City. So he secretly called them ragtag.
"What a law!" Su Yan sneered, "Without the old man behind you, can you beat Mengying?"
"You..!" Teng Yingjie glared at Su Yan and scolded with an irritating voice, "Who the hell are you? How are you related to Mengying? You are not qualified to call her name!"
"Teng Yingjie, you don't know about this."
Xiang Yang calmed himself down and said with a smile that was uglier than crying, "He is Su Yan. He has a very close relationship with Bai Mengying. They often practice together!"
Su Yan stared coldly at Xiang Yang, and then looked at Tao Tianhua who was smiling proudly. He did expect that Xiang Yang was that contemptible. After all, Xiang Yang had been pursuing Bai Mengying all along. Now he said these words actually in public. Bai Mengying was just a girl after all!
"What!"
Teng Yingjie was in a thundering rage. He could not bear the thought of them practicing martial arts and comparing notes together with skin-to-skin contact, or worse even more intimate scenes.
"Bitch!" Teng Yingjie pointed at Bai Mengying and Su Yan wrathfully, "And you, ragtag!"
"Ragtag, who are you cursing?" Su Yan glowered.
“Ragtag cursing you!”
Teng Yingjie lost his temper and roared. People were petrified about what he just said because he was fooled by such an old-fashioned trick.
“Well said! A ragtag is cursing!”
In a split second, a white shadow with strong energy leaped forward, glowering at Teng Yingjie and said, “Teng Yingjie! How dare you trouble my sister! I’ll teach you a lesson this time since you hadn’t learnt from last beating!”
“Eldest brother!”
Bai Mengying was enraptured, “Su Yan, this is my eldest brother, Bai Xingyuan!”
Hearing that, Su Yan observed the powerful man several times. The young man was so furious and growled, “And you! Old bastard! How dare you hurt my sister? Do you want to die?”
“Please don’t get me wrong!”
Teng Yingjie’s second uncle took his hands back hastily and explained, “Please trust me, I was just testing Mingying merely in order to know whether she has improved or not. It’s a mere misunderstanding.”
“How dare you! Bai Xingyuan, you wait and see! I will certainly pay all the mortification back to you as soon as I reach the Destiny Spring Realm!”
Teng Yingjie looked livid. Bai Mengying had been away from home for the past few years, so he went to Bai Family and acted wildly but was beaten up heavily by Bai Xingyuan. Bai Family and the Teng Family were in a close relationship, and it was improper for the elder to get involved in the young generation’s grudge.
“If you got the balls just stay here. I'll beat the shit out of you so you can really learn.”
By the time Bai Xingyuan rushed towards, Teng Yingjie had already run away. Before leaving, he glared at Bai Mengying with fierceness in his eyes, “I don’t care who Su Yan is, and you’d better behave. I won’t forgive you next time if you dare to talk to another man.”
Bai Mengying gnashed her teeth. It was her grandfather who said something without thinking after getting drunk. But unfortunately, Teng Yingjie took it seriously, announcing everywhere that Bai Mengying was his fiancée. And it was too late for Bai Family to do anything when they knew.
Bai Xingyuan trotted to Bai Mengying and scrutinized Su Yan up and down, “Thanks for what you did.”
Su Yan nodded, “It’s a piece of cake.”
“Brother, this is my friend Su Yan.” Bai Mengying said delightedly. Her elder brother Bai Xingyuan was also an outstanding student in Huaxia College. Although he was not a golden student, he was not far from it.
“Hello, Su Yan.” Bai Xingyuan glanced at Su Yan again, then said to Bai Mengying, “Grandpa wants to talk to you. Come with me now.” Regardless of Bai Mengying’s opposition, Bai Xingyuan took her away immediately.
Even Bai Family didn’t want to get into trouble now, which made Tao Tianhua laugh.
Su Yan frowned slightly. It was not as simple as he had imagined. Was it just because of Tao Tianhua that Bai Xingyuan was obviously unwilling to talk to him? Absolutely not! Tao Tianhua shouldn’t have such a big influence.
"What are you doing, brother?"
Being dragged across the street forcibly, Bai Mengying burst out ferociously, "It's Su Yan who just helped me. Why are you so rude? Do you know how annoying Teng Yingjie was just now?"
Bai Xingyuan smiled bitterly, dotingly fondled Bai Mengying’s head and sighed, “Teng Yingjie has gone too far no doubt, but he has the power to do so!”
“What do you mean?” Bai Mengying's pretty face changed suddenly and looked a bit depressed.
"Teng Yingjie has been accepted as a disciple by associate dean of Huaxia College. And Thunder Scripture, the top cultivation method is enshrined in Scripture Pavilion of Huaxia College. That is why Teng Yingjie's achievements in the future are truly limitless.”
Bai Xingyuan sighed, “Even grandpa praised his talent. In the future, maybe it's hard for me to beat him again. The most resentful thing is that he is so impertinent and harass you like a dead dog. Grandpa is very upset about this too. Fortunately, you are too young to get married to him. But if he becomes Zu Yan’s right-hand, you will be in big trouble.”
