âYour acting is good.â Wang Teng scoffed.
Liu Xinghui covered his face and said, âYou must have misunderstood me.â
Wang Teng turned to look at Wan Feiyu. He asked, âHe didnât tell you what happened during the exam, right?â
Wan Feiyu instinctively gave a fawning smile when he saw Wang Teng looking at him. However, after hearing his words, he got suspicious. He replied, âHe only told me that you passed the beginner-stage runemaster exam.â
âWang Teng didnât just pass the beginner-stage runemaster exam. He also passed the intermediate-stage runemaster exam. My master saw potential in him and wanted to take him in as his disciple. Liu Xinghui was at the scene too. He knows about it,â Su Lingxuan opened her mouth and said. She cast a meaningful glance at Liu Xinghui.
âYou passed the intermediate-stage runemaster exam and President Gorlin wants to take you in as a disciple?!â Wan Feiyuâs expression turned ugly.
If Wang Teng had only passed the beginner-stage runemaster exam at his age, he was a talent. However, if he became an intermediate-stage runemaster, he shouldnât be underestimated. He might become a master-level character like Gorlin in the future.
Also, if the president of the rune society took Wang Teng as his disciple, his status would be wholly different.
Wan Feiyu wouldnât have provoked Wang Teng if he knew this.
âOh right, my master has already accepted Wang Teng as his disciple!â Su Lingxuan knew what he was thinking, so she added fuel to the fire.
Wan Feiyuâs face turned green with anger. He glared at Liu Xinghui furiously. âGood, good, Liu Xinghui, you are amazing!â
âSigh.â Liu Xinghui sighed. He shook his head and crawled up from the ground. After patting the dust off his body, he smiled. âI did scheme against you, but you can only blame yourself. You got jealous when you saw Su Lingxuan walking with him, so you wanted to hurt him. You brought this upon yourself.â
âDespicable!â Wan Feiyu gritted his teeth and cursed.
The others were shocked. They all looked at Liu Xinghui, who seemed to have turned into a different person. Their gazes were filled with contempt.
âYouâre really shameless.â Wang Teng clapped his hands and laughed. âDo you admit that you schemed against me?â
âSo? You want to beat me up, but you wonât dare to kill me. Only an idiot like Wan Feiyu will get intimidated by you,â Liu Xinghui said confidently.
He looked at Wang Teng and Su Lingxuan with a sinister gaze. These two people had put him in a tough spot today. He would make them pay in the future.
âYou!â Wan Feiyu was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
âYouâre right. I donât dare to kill you,â Wang Teng nodded and said.
âHmph!â Liu Xinghui snorted.
âBut, I can hit you until you are almost dead!â Wang Teng laughed out loud.
âYou can try!â Liu Xinghui said coldly.
âYour request is too much.â Wang Teng shook his head.
The next second, he launched his attack.
Liu Xinghui was a runemaster, so his martial arts cultivation wasnât that high. He only saw something flashing past his eyes, and then he was thrown into the air again.
Bang!
He landed forcefully on the ground. This time, the other side of his face got swollen. Two more teeth fell out from his mouth, along with fresh blood.
He truly looked like a pigâs head now.
Wan Feiyu felt a little delighted when he saw this scene. How dare Liu Xinghui play him? He deserved to be in this state.
But, this Wang Teng is really courageous. Isnât he afraid of the Wan and Liu familiesâ revenge?
He had offended two families at once. He wouldnât be able to get off scot-free even if he was President Gorlinâs disciple.
Wan Feiyuâs eyes shimmered. He knew that Liu Xinghui was the reason behind his humiliation, but Wang Teng was the one who broke his arm and leg. He had even extorted more than ten thousand Force stones from him. This was an undeniable truth. He couldnât swallow this insult.
Liu Xinghui looked up slowly and glared at Wang Teng. His eyes were filled with bitterness and hatred. âContinue!â
âI love tough cookies. They are more fun to break than weaklings who back down after a single punch. They arenât fun at all.â Wang Teng smiled as he walked towards Liu Xinghui.
Wan Feiyu felt frustrated.
Was he calling him a weakling?
He got humiliated without doing anything!
At that moment, a gold brick appeared in Wang Tengâs hand.
Liu Xinghuiâs expression finally underwent a change.
The others were stunned. Where did this brick come from?
Wang Teng arrived in front of Liu Xinghui in a few steps. Liu Xinghui wanted to dodge, but Wang Teng pressed his head down and started hammering him mercilessly with the brick.
Bang, bang, bang!
Low thuds stunned the crowd.
Every single sound represented a hit on Liu Xinghuiâs body. It was painful just listening to it.
The muscles on Wan Feiyuâs face twitched. Suddenly, he felt fortunate that he had pleaded for mercy in time. If not, he would have been treated inhumanely, too, right?
Su Lingxuanâs eyes were glistening as she stared at the brick.
Wang Teng gradually came to a stop. He let out a deep breath and said, âThis feels good!â
When Liu Xinghui heard his comment, he stumbled and rolled his eyes. His entire face was distorted. It was swollen like a basketball⦠Only a martial warrior could handle this kind of beating.
âYou havenât fainted yet? You are a tough person!â Wang Teng smashed the brick at him again when he noticed that he was stumbling but didnât fall.
Bang!
Liu Xinghuiâs eyes rolled back in their sockets, and he finally collapsed.
Wang Teng scanned his surroundings. There were multiple attribute bubbles on the ground, all belonging to Liu Xinghui.
Spirit*8
Spirit*10
Enlightenment*12
Spirit*6
â¦
He picked them up.
Liu Xinghui is a runemaster, but he dropped many attributes. Wang Teng wondered to himself.
Liu Xinghui had dropped a total of 36 spirit attributes. It was higher than a normal person.
Spirit: Spiritual realm (75.3/100)
He picked up another 20 points of enlightenment. The amount was sizable. Liu Xinghui was indeed a genius. His enlightenment was quite high.
Enlightenment: Spiritual realm (56/100)
After a period of accumulation, Wang Tengâs enlightenment attribute had reached its halfway mark. As his enlightenment climbed higher, his cultivation talent would get better and better.
Wang Teng ignored Liu Xinghui, who was lying on the ground like a corpse.
Wan Feiyu and his friends shrunk back when they met Wang Tengâs gaze. They looked like rats that had met a cat.
âLeave. Donât let me see you again in the future,â Wang Teng said.
Wan Feiyu didnât dare to say anything. He left hurriedly with the help of his friends.
As for Liu Xinghui, no one cared about him.
âLetâs go back,â Wang Teng said to Su Lingxuan.
âOkay.â Su Lingxuan nodded. They walked towards the rune society. Along the way, she said, âYouâve offended them, you know. They wonât let you go so easily.â
âTell me about the two families,â Wang Teng said.
âThe Wan family is an old and well-known martial arts family. Their business covers the entire Yang City, and they are very powerful. Wan Feiyu is the third son of the Wan familyâs head. He has an elder brother and an elder sister. Their talent and ability are much higher than his. The elders of the Wan family might not act, but you still have to be careful about his siblings. As for the Liu familyâ¦â Su Lingxuan started explaining the details to Wang Teng.
