Chapter 149 - One More Time (1/2)
The crowd became extremely excited after hearing the white-shirt lady’s words.
“My god, to think that Wei Hao has a chance of reaching the Martial Dominator Realm. How crazy is his potential?”
“Tsk, it’s too scary. He would surely come first in this round!”
“Hahaha, I just bet on Wei Hao. Haha, I’m going to win this round.”
……
Rogue cultivators, including those who did not bet on Wei Hao, all spoke with a shocked but respectful tone.
The elder of the Disordered Flames Sect burst out laughing as he brought his fists together and said, “Brother Fang, I’m sorry for that. It seems like Young Master Wei Hao is about to win the round!”
Elder Fang’s lips twitched but he could not find any words to say.
Huang Que’s potential of reaching the Martial Emperor Realm was already considered powerful. Who could have thought Wei Hao would have a chance of reaching the Martial Dominator Realm?
Even if he was feeling unpleasant, Wei Hao had to admit his loss!
As for the elder of the Qing Nu Sect, she was calm after losing five thousand Martial Emperor Pills and a smile could be seen on her face.
The fact that Wang Ruoling was now Wei Hao’s woman was extremely beneficial for the Qing Nu Sect even if she does not end up as Wei Hao’s wife.
Among the four elders, only Zhang Taiyi wore a dull expression on his face.
Before the trial, Zhang Taiyi had predicted Wei Hao to come first but due to his identity, he could only bet his five thousand Martial Emperor Pills on Qin Nan.
“If I were allowed to bet on Wei Hao, I would be winning five thousand Martial Emperor Pills. Not only will I not win now, I am definitely going to lose five thousand Martial Emperor Pills, which is equivalent to losing ten thousand Martial Emperor Pills…”Zhang Taiyi said to himself as his face was contorted.
After a while, the crowd began to turn quiet, and redirect their focus onto the screen to watch how the other geniuses perform.
Now, it was different since the rogue cultivators and the elders of the top four sects no longer had any hope for the remaining participants. Wei Hao coming first in the first round was considered a fact at this stage.
They were only curious to see who could advance to the second round from now onward.
...Meanwhile, at the first layer of Martial Serendipity Pavilion...
Most of the geniuses at the scene were filled with astonishment from seeing Wei Hao’s result.
Huang Que, in particular, felt like he was being struck by lightning. The proud expression on his face vanished and he turned incredibly pale.
Wei Hao let out a few prideful laughs. He brought his fists at the old man before going up to Wang Ruoling and saying with a grin, “Baby, did you see that? Your man is so powerful, even more powerful than Huang Que! You have to know how proud you should be to have the chance to serve me!”
After saying this, Wei Hao reached out his chubby hand into Wang Ruoling’s dress and touched her recklessly.
Wang Ruoling let out a moan as her face blushed and reacted with a hint of coquetry.
While her previous reaction was shameful, she was extremely excited this time and taking the initiative.
In fact, she was very grateful. If Huang Que had not given her to Wei Hao as a gift, she would not have had the chance to become his woman.
The old man’s eyes were filled with envy as he watched Wei Hao touching Wang Ruoling. He then said in an unpleasant tone, “Hey hey hey, the remaining five, do you all still want to take the trial? If not, get the hell out of here. Stop wasting my precious time!”
Upon hearing this, the geniuses collected their thoughts and those who had not done the trial went forward at once.
The first four finished the trial with average results with nothing unordinary.
The first round of the trial finally reached an end as Qin Nan was the only one left.
“Qin Nan, with your shocking background, I’m curious to see what kind of result you’ll get in this round,” Huang Que said in a strange tone
He instantly switched his gaze toward Qin Nan. Even though there was nothing wrong with his words, he sounded extremely uncomfortable.
As a matter of fact, after learning of Qin Nan’s background, Huang Que had no intention to trouble him again. However, he felt extremely unpleasant from the previous shock he had received and from remembering how Qin Nan had previously ignored him, so, he said his words.
The other geniuses shook their heads after hearing his words without saying anything.
Only Wang Ruoling was incredibly angry at Qin Nan. Although she was intimidated by Qin Nan’s background, becoming Wei Hao’s girlfriend gave her new confidence. She giggled as she said, “Huang Que, what do you mean by that? Our friend Qin Nan is a disciple of two Martial Ancestor Realm experts and has an eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit. His future is definitely going to be incredible. Maybe he will come first in this round!”
She intentionally emphasized the words ‘eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit’.
Wei Hao was not fond of Qin Nan either. He pinched Wang Ruoling’s face and said while laughing, “My girl indeed knows how to speak. In my view, Brother Qin Nan’s talent would at least be Martial Dominator Realm? Who knows, maybe he would surpass the Martial Dominator Realm!”
Martial Dominator Realm? Surpass the Martial Dominator Realm?
How could Qin Nan with a mere eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit achieve such a result?
There was no doubt that Wei Hao was being sarcastic toward Qin Nan!
The rest of the geniuses were startled. They did not expect Wei Hao, Huang Que, and Wang Ruoling, these top three geniuses, to mock Qin Nan as they spoke.
Even though Huang Long, Mo Zishan, Xu You and Da Hu were furious witnessing this, they felt helpless.
Despite Qin Nan’s formidable background, terrifying Martial Skill Talent, and outstanding Martial Heart, his Martial Spirit was only eighth-grade Huang ranked. This was the key factor in determining Qin Nan’s future achievement, which will likely turn out to be relatively ordinary.
Maybe Qin Nan did manage to make a series of miracles happen but he had no choice but to lower his head and get mocked in this Martial Potential trial.
In Canglan Continent, the rank of a Martial Spirit was everything!
However, Qin Nan’s face was expressionless as he was being mocked by the top three geniuses. It was as if he did not hear their words at all. He took his time walking up to the Potential Stone and slowly reached out his hand.
At that instant, all the geniuses at the scene straightened their faces.
Even Wei Hao, Huang Que and Wang Ruoling gathered all their focus.
Not only that, outside Martial Serendipity Pavilion, at the peak of Autumn Mountain, the rogue cultivators and the four elders of the top four sects wore a serious expression on their faces.They stared at the screen projected by the Martial Mirror with no intention of missing a single detail.
Since Qin Nan’s entry, he had become the limelight of the crowd with a display of his formidable background.
