1549 Listen to a Word of Advice From Your Brother Wang! (1)

Valmont’s cloak was ripped, revealing his true appearance to the crowd’s horror!

His cheeks were covered with scales, just like a regular member of the Scale Lizard race. However, his face was covered in twisted black marks; those who looked at them could feel their scalps tingle and hearts race.

The crowd was in an uproar. Even if they only saw it through their screens, they could feel their spirits being corrupted and hear strange whispers in their ears.

In the military’s battle fortress—General Fu Xinglan and the others frowned with grave expressions.

“They look like devil patterns!” General Fu Xinglan said.

“But Valmont is a warrior from the Scale Lizard race. There was nothing unusual about him during the screenings. Was he enchanted by dark apparitions during the competition?” General Habakkuk pondered.

“Tenacious freaks!” General Fuxinglan snorted coldly. “The dark apparitions are getting bolder. They even dare to cause trouble in the League of Talents!”

“No matter what, we should figure out how to deal with this Valmont now,” General Habakkuk proposed.

General Fu Xinglan said after some thought, “Leave it to Wang Teng. There cannot be any slip-ups in this competition. Solving this without introducing external forces is the best.”

“But, what if the apparitions are plotting something?” Habakkuk hesitated.

“Get our men ready. The two of us will scout the surroundings, just in case,” General Fu Xinglan said.

“That’s the only way.” The former nodded.

Fu Xinglan glanced at Tang Wuwei, who had stayed silent throughout the exchange. “Old Tang, stay here.”

A hint of seriousness finally appeared on the latter’s face as he nodded. “Leave it to me. Don’t worry!”

The three eternal stage warriors sprang into action.

Generals Fu Xinglan and Habakkuk disappeared from the battle fortress. No one knew where they went.

On the imperial family’s spacecraft—the middle aged man received the news. However, he didn’t take any action. Only his gaze flickered while he looked at the situation on the screen.

His sole idea was to continue watching the competition.

The universe stage elder criticized, “What has the military been doing? To actually let someone touched by dark apparitions infiltrate the League of Talents. He even made it to the top thirty-six!”

The middle aged man countered with a question, “This Valmont competed in so many rounds, right under our eyes. Did you notice anything amiss?”

“What matters the most right now is to solve the problem, not to point fingers,” the middle aged man added.

“I’ll order the military to kill this Valmont,” said the attending elder.

“No.” The former shook his head and his eyes lit up a little. “Let Wang Teng continue.”

“You mean…” The universe stage elder had a thought.

“There will be no impact if the military takes action. Only by having the participants defeat him can we uplift the people’s spirits and remove the fear in their hearts,” the middle-aged man said.

“But this fiend managed to enter the League of Talents; he must have been endowed with some kind of ability by the dark apparitions. I’m afraid…” The elder lamented.

“You underestimate Wang Teng.” The middle-aged man smiled. “Do you think the military was exaggerating when they spoke of his exploits back on Defense Planet No. 29?”

“He’s just a celestial warrior. I don’t really believe in him,” said the universe stage warrior.

“Then, keep on watching.” The middle-aged man smiled.

…

A ‘bewitched’ warrior had made an appearance in the League of Talents. Many among the ordinary practitioners were panicking, as if the sky were collapsing.

The ordinary warriors considered the apparitions as horror itself. They panicked, feared and even dreaded their existence!

The live chat platform was instantly flooded with comments.

The Second Prince, Timothy, Strachey and the others were already up on their feet. They were at the edge of the stone platform looking at Valmont.

Even the Crown Prince stood up and frowned.

Up in the sky—Wang Teng looked at Valmont with surprise. “Those are… devil patterns!”

He was more than acquainted with dark apparitions. He immediately made the association when he saw the black patterns.

“Hahaha…”

A strange and piercing laughter could be heard.

Wang Teng frowned.

Valmont lowered his head, shrugging a bit due to laughter.

“Hey, what’s so funny? Share it with the rest of us,” Wang Teng shouted.

The strange laughter stopped, followed by an eerie silence.

Even the live chat platform went quiet for a moment. Then…

“Pfft… I didn’t want to laugh, but I couldn’t hold it in.”

“Valmont is being played.”

“I suddenly get the feeling that dark apparitions aren’t that scary!”

“Is Wang Teng not afraid of him, at all?”

“Why would he be afraid? Have you forgotten where he came from? He’s from the military. He probably saw more dark apparitions than the amount of rice you’ve eaten your whole life.”

“…To hell with you!”

“The military doesn’t seem to be making any moves to interfere. Are they… letting the fight continue?”

“Looks like they are letting Wang Teng take care of him.”

…

The crowd’s fear diminished, all thanks to Wang Teng’s actions. They didn’t seem to be as frightened as before.

The Second Prince and the others were caught between laughter and tears. They then exchanged glances and got back to their seats.
