Chapter 155 - Domination III (2/2)

However, it was also beautiful to see so many idiots thinking they are so great that they become fodders to those who had the brains to exploit them of everything they had in their possession.

Breathing madly like a tired beast was Wang Ling who had cuts and bruise on his face.

Blood was coming out of these cuts, and his exhaustion could be seen in his expression. But his posture said otherwise.

Those who stuck around to watch the challenges for Wang Ling managed to witness an entertaining fight of a man fighting dozens of people just to keep his position and win the fight.

”This Wang Ling is something else. For him to beat 36 'geniuses' one after another is insane. Why have I not heard anyone his name before?”

”Wait, I know that person, I knew his name was familiar, do you remember the newcomers' competition three years ago? Wasn't he the one who didn't come to it? The one they called the 'coward'?”

”Bah, you idiots were the only ones who believed those rumors. Didn't you remember what the white fox said that day? He was too lazy to come and didn't want to bother with any of the useless competition held to rank the trashes.”

Wang Ling, the name of the coward who ran away from the newcomer competition. Bai Xue had tried to ”explain” the situation, but it is clear how it turned out.

It was nearing midnight, and all the fights were fought in with grueling efforts. As Wang Ling stood there trying to catch his breath. He turned to one of his challengers and pointed at him and said.

”Are you going to fight or not?” Wang Ling spoke with a hoarse voice. The challenger who had already grown to respect Wang Ling shook his head.

”I cannot fight someone who is already out of breath. I will challenge you again when you recuperate. I am no shameless coward who fights an exhausted counterpart. Also, it is already midnight, and the event has ended.”

Wang Ling frowned inwardly. But he showed the student a bitter smile.

[This should be enough acting, for now, right?] he thought as he then spoke loudly.

”I have fought a lot today and indeed I am out of breath. But it is clear that all of the challenges here are dissatisfied with this ending so, in two days, I shall come back, I will accept every challenge that comes my way, for I am Wang Ling of the Wang Family, and my family never recedes from a fight.”

With that, Wang Ling stumbled and almost lost his footing. Thankfully, someone appeared beside him and helped him up.

It was Aiane of the Evergreen Clan.

”Please let me help you, First Young Master.” Aiane helped the weakened Wang Ling and then brought him away.

Wang Ling leaned on Aiane and praised her on the inside for arriving with such perfect timing. He knew she was only trying to lick his boots but who cares.

Her timing is perfect.

As the two of them walked out. People began to speak of Wang Ling and the statement he had left.

His identity of being the young master of the Wang Family also proliferated at a terrifying rate. And because his name already spread at noon, by the time midnight rolled over, almost every bit of information about him had started to appear.

It did not matter if it was an outer circle or inner circle student and even teacher, Wang Ling's name had spread out like wildfire.

=====

While Wang Ling was quickly gaining fame in the Thundergod Academy.

The entirety of the Wang Family was assembled, the only ones missing was the three men of the Wang Family.

Wang Shu Qing, Wang Hong, and Wang Ling was nowhere to be seen.

Wang Yue was with Butler Sun, and her face was filled with anticipation.

Butler Sun, on the other hand, was fidgeting.

Wang Yue turned to him and asked what was wrong. Butler Sun showed him a wry smile and said.

”As you already know, the Mistress is nice and kind. She is strong and powerful, she is free-willed and honest. But in some cases, the Mistress goes on a, um, how do I say this, rampage when she wants to truly make someone pay. And I fear war is going to happen again once the Mistress read about the endeavors of the two Young Masters… I just hope she does not become angry when she reads it.”

”I will not get angry if it's not worth getting angry you know?”

Butler Sun flinched as a graceful and nigh-perfect figure of a lady appeared from above.

The sun was that was rising on her back gave her a natural light that further accentuated the natural beauty of the lady on the air.

Wang Yue raised her head and a smile beamed from her face as she called out, ”Mother!”

The Mistress of the Wang Family had returned.

A foreboding feeling had appeared in Butler Sun's heart.
