Chapter 168 - Pioneers Ranking (2/2)
The woman gave the others an unamused glance and looked at the tower ahead, until she fixed her eyes on the fifth level.
An old man beside her smiled gently. “I believe you will reach the sixth level without a problem, my lady. Then you’ll become the champion on the Pioneer’s Ranking.”
The woman didn’t seem interested. She said, “Tell this rabble to make way. I don’t have time to waste with them.”
The old man nodded and moved ahead to address everyone. “Ahem. Move aside, if you will, so our young mistress can get through.”
His voice sounded friendly enough, but many people were unhappy with his message.
“Who the heck is it??”
“Some kind of big-shot from a rich family, huh?”
“Get in line and wait if your little lady wants to use the tower! Who do you think you are, the president’s wife?”
“What he said!”
Whereas some of the people protested openly, the rest of them who recognized the old man obediently left the queue with terrified looks.
The old man was no longer looking so amiable.
“My word. Is it so difficult to be a little more tolerant?”
He took another step ahead while fully disclosing his hidden power, which immediately froze the air as well as people who stood too close, rendering them immovable.
“He-he-he’s a t.i.tled warrior!”
Upon hearing that, several smart people with quick reflexes escaped from the scene as well. “That woman’s Tang Ruyan??”
“She’s the one who made it to the fifth level of the tower last time. I saw her on the Pioneer’s Ranking!”
“Sh*t. That’s why she got a t.i.tled warrior to be her bodyguard?”
Those who were still trying to resist the old man’s might decided to quit. They all knew that Tang Ruyan was a renowned superstar with exceptional flair. Her family had always been a dominant one across several base cities in the subcontinent. Common folk were powerless against her.
“Hmph. You always want it the hard way.” The old man turned away impatiently.
Tang Ruyan didn’t look bothered by what had happened since she had been through similar things many times.
She moved ahead to enter the tower, but stopped in her tracks because the entrance was still blocked by someone.
The old man looked that way with an angry gaze. “Are you deaf, kid? Get out of my master’s way! Or was I too forceful just now and you no longer feel your pathetic legs?”
Su Ping looked left and right and was surprised to find that all the people waiting around him had left.
“Huh? Are you talking to me, old man?”
