Chapter 13 The genius known as Wang Ling IV (1/2)

Wang Hong and the energetic youths of the Azure Skies Kingdom were all in a fervor. The atmosphere became suited for a low-class battlefield.

Everyone couldn't wait to see the sparring. There was a wide and spacious area situated in the center of the banquet hall, Wang Hong went there and stood there with his left hand on his back and his right hand holding his spear.

He was waiting for an opponent to step forward. The smile on Wang Hong's face was brimming and held no worry.

Wang Ling was expecting more of a simple banquet where people will interact with one another and talk about the current news of the Kingdom and the continent. He wanted to listen in on these kids' conversation and learn about the current world situation.

He had not encountered a book concerning the continent and the different powers other than the Kingdoms nearby the Azure Skies Kingdom so Wang Ling is still on the dark.

[Should I just get a book?

But there was no book concerning the continent in the bookstores I visit with Yue right?

Hmm, should I check the public library or should I head for the royal library directly? Sigh, I'll just go to the Royal Library, there should be a higher chance of high quality books in there.]

Wang Ling decided decisively. No need going to the public library if he can go to royal library. The royal library of any country should be better their public one anyway.

With a wine cup on hand Wang Ling took a sip of the wine. He then heard some movements beside him. Turning his head over, he saw Wang Yue clumsily getting a plate of sweets that was placed on the table.

She was having a hard time mostly because she was not even looking at the food and her arms were short.

Her arms were a little short and the plate was place near the center of the table so it was hard getting one. Seeing this, Wang Ling helped her by handing a plate over before subsequently saying.

”Yue, stop reading the book if you're going to eat. Place the book down for a moment and let us watch Wang Hong spar with the other kids.”

Upon hearing Wang Ling's voice, Wang Yue's attention was shaken from the book. She turned to look at Wang Ling before giving him a confused expression, as if she was saying; ”when did you get here?”

Wang Ling did not say anything anymore and handed her a plate of roasted meat. Wang Yue did what she was told and placed the book down, she took the plate off of Wang Ling's hand and started eating.

While her cheeks were puff up like a ball of sweetness or like a chipmunk who is happily eating. Wang Yue turned her head to the center of the banquet hall and there he saw his Second Older Brother, Wang Hong.

Pointing at Wang Hong's direction, she asked.

”Is second older brother going to fight?”

Wang Yue asked Wang Ling with pure innocence. She was still eating but in-between her bite and chewing, she managed to ask a question before turning into a chipmunk once more.

”Yes he will be fighting. From the looks of it, our guests came prepared.” Wang Ling smiled as he saw them taking out swords that was emitting strange undulations.

Wang Yue widened her eyes and became worried for Wang Hong. She was not that close with Wang Hong, but she was still her sister and Wang Hong treated her like one. Wang Yue was a simple person who treats her family dearly.

Even though she was still not comfortable with Wang Hong's incessant demand for family bonding earlier today, she was still touch to see that her family was so caring and sweet. Also, she only ignored him earlier because she was too engrossed with the books she had just bought and couldn't stop reading.

”Will second older brother be alright? He's not going to get any injury right?”

Wang Yue was worried that something bad might occur. She even forgot to take another bite of the meat in front of her, this shows how shaken she was.

If this glutton forgets to eat her food, then it was clear that she is shaken or disturbed, that's how Wang Ling see his sister at least.

”Don't worry about it too much. Wang Hong is strong and he'll be able to beat them easily. Just eat and watch the show he's about to perform for us.”

There were not much people around where Wang Ling and Wang Yue was sitting on so no one really heard his rather hushed voice.

If someone actually heard him talk about Wang Hong easily beating the geniuses of the Azure Skies Kingdom, there would be huge trouble coming to him for sure.

Wang Yue nodded her head after being reassured by Wang Ling's words. When she was just about to get back to eating, she noticed the wine bottle Wang Ling was holding.

”Big brother, is that wine are you holding?”

Wang Ling nodded his head.

”Butler Sun said that you shouldn't be drinking such things. Wine is supposed to be bad for your health.” Wang Yue warned Wang Ling.

Wang Ling shrugged his shoulders.

”It's not bad for my health. Butler Sun is only exaggerating his words.” He said these words and poured himself a cup of wine before drinking it in one go.

Wang Yue was reluctant to believe Wang Ling, but in the end she chose to trust him. She then took the piece of meat in front of her and began once again.

In the center area of the banquet hall. Wang Hong was waiting for his opponent to take a step forward.

There were arguments everywhere to decide who will get to fight Wang Hong first. The people who were arguing were mostly youths who are at sky root stage. These youths looked like they were in their late teens.

For them to reach such a stage in such an age means that their talent is not really that good. Their better than common people at best.

[Wang Hong should stop playing around with young people like this.

He should have long pass the foundational phase of cultivation so having a bout on this level is not helpful and could even be detrimental to him.

Young people does not know to restrain themselves for the best of their future.]

Wang Ling criticized Wang Hong in his heart. While he was doing so, his eyes met Wang Hong's gaze who were looking around the banquet.

Wang Hong wanted to say something but Wang Ling motioned to not bother so Wang Hong stop. Wang Hong then turned his head to see Wang Yue was watching him intently. Well, she was eating while watching but that only means she was enjoying herself.

Wang Hong was pumped. He was sure to give his older brother and littler sister a wonderful show to watch.

”Hey! What is it with the hold up?” Wang Hong called for the youths with unrestrained irritation.

”Hold your horses, I'm coming already so wait a minute.”

The arrogant young man who first issued his challenge stepped forth and exchanged looks with Wang Hong. The arrogant fellow's stride was wide so it didn't take long for him to reach fifteen meters away from Wang Hong.

”Greetings brother Wang, it has been a while since I last saw you! Five years, correct?” the arrogant fellow spoke in an amiable manner but the fighting intent in his eyes were not dissipating in the slightest.

Wang Hong saw the arrogant fellow and smiled.

Thud!

He tap the floor with his spear and spoke with a smile on his face.

”Brother Gust, it has truly been a while. So, are you here to reclaim the honor you have lost after losing to this coward?”

Wang Hong's eyes shone a frightening glint. In the past he was called a coward by many people. Every time he walks in the street he will at least be called coward three times before he can head home.
