1507 I Won’t Be Too Fierce! (2)

The eight dukedoms were watching the thousand martial warriors in the battle arena.

Aside from paying attention to their own talents, they were also keeping an eye on the outstanding talents, like Wang Teng and the Crown Prince.

…

Bang, bang, bang!

While everyone was raptly watching the competition—the battle arena suddenly shook and the sound of war drums boomed with violence.

Exhilirating!

Imposing!

It sounded as though countless martial warriors were striking those drums. The sudden deafening drumbeats resounded all the way to the clouds.

A majestic aura filled the sky for a long time!

Everyone was taken aback by this and turned serious. Their hearts started beating hard along with the sound of the drum beats; their blood started to churn in their bodies.

It felt like they were about to start a huge war in the middle of a grand battlefield.

What an unexpected scene!

Wang Teng slightly widened his eyes. His heartbeat was also affected by the war drums; he couldn’t get his pulse to slow down, even while trying desperately to.

There was something magical about the drumbeats!

“This is just a competition. Do they have to do that?” he complained, caught between laughter and tears.

The Second Prince and the others looked at him.

This guy is really bold, to actually dare ridicule the actions of the seven great academies. He wasn’t afraid of them stacking the deck against him…

The Crown Prince couldn’t help but glance at him too.

He also felt it was excessive, but that was after all the arrangement of the academies and a tradition in itself. It wasn’t good to speak out at that moment.

“Cough!” Wang Teng straightened up when he noticed that everyone was staring at him, and chose to act like he had never said anything.

Silence.

The avatars and names of the remaining thousand warriors appeared on the light sphere. It then began to change rapidly.

Everyone was shaken; they immediately paid attention to it.

The results were out!

Wang Teng versus Wade!!!

Gasp!

Everyone was stunned by the announcement on the light sphere. There was uproar.

“Wang Teng, it’s Wang Teng!”

“Wang Teng’s the first to battle!”

“How exciting! A popular contender for the championship is up right away!”

“Hahaha, we didn’t wait so many days in vain!”

“I’m excited. I don’t know if you guys are.”

“I’m fine!”

“Don’t get too excited.”

“Is this a coincidence, or is it really…”

“Is this a coincidence? The Seven Stellar Academies probably can’t wait any longer.”

“Why is no one paying attention to Wade?”

“Who’s Wade?”

“Wade: [○・`Д ́・○]”

…

Everyone was stunned when they saw Wang Teng be the first to battle.

“Interesting!”

But soon, they looked with interest at the flustered hero on screen.

Wang Teng was preparing to watch the competition in his seat, but felt a bit unnerved when he realized he had to go up and fight.

The chances of that happening were extremely small!

He topped five forbidden zones. It should have been quite difficult for him to be selected as one of the first contenders.

He now had some suspicions about the light sphere being tampered with in order to get him in the first match.

“Wang Teng, hurry up; your opponent is already waiting for you,” said the Second Prince, who couldn’t hide the smile on his face.

This guy is actually first. This is… too good!

Many people wanted to see how strong he really was.

Back in the first round, the young hero used various techniques to seize opportunities in the elimination battle. He didn’t really do many fancy moves, except for his big attacks. No one was able to see anything else.

That was the best time to observe him!

Strachey, Ji Haochen, Timothy, the Third Prince and the others shared similar thoughts. They all looked at him as if he were a magical beast.

“Why do I get the feeling that you’re very happy about this?” said Wang Teng while glancing at the Second Prince.

The Second Prince straightened his face and denied, “Really? No way. Not happy at all.”

“You should work on your poker face.” Wang Teng felt at a loss.

He shook his head and stood up.

The amiable noble and the rest suddenly raised their eyebrows.

They suddenly realized that the young hero was slowly dissipating in front of their eyes, having already left the stone platform at some point.

Wang Teng’s body suddenly appeared in the sky.

There was a fat young man in front of him, at least three times his height; the fellow almost looked like a ball.

It was Wang Teng’s opponent—Wade!

“Fast!”

The big guy was stunned by his rival’s entrance. He squinted and smiled bitterly.

Wang Teng was too fast. He almost didn’t see how he had just shown up.

It was no surprise he was able to get first place in five different zones.

He felt unlucky. To actually meet such a powerful opponent in the first match; his chances of victory were low!

Wang Teng sized up his opponent and asked with a weird expression, “Do you have a brother called Duan De?”

“Duan De?!” Wade was taken aback for a while, feeling baffled. He then shook his head fast. “No.”

“Do you have any relatives called Que De?” Wang Teng asked again. (In Chinese, Que De means unscrupulous. This is a word play derived from his name, Wade.)

“Que, Que De?” Wade didn’t know how to respond. “I have no brothers”

“All right!” Wang Teng was disappointed.

Wade looked at the other, at a loss for words.

What’s with the disappointed look?

Must I have a brother called Que De or Duan De?

“There are many people watching us. Let’s get on with it.” Wang Teng stopped messing around.

“Wait, wait… Wait a bit, big brother,” the big fellow called out anxiously.

“Big brother?” Wang Teng was confused and asked, “What for?”

Wade scratched his head and said with embarrassment, “Well… Can you be gentle with me?”

Wang Teng: …

Why is this fatty such a coward?

“Is that… okay?” Wade wiped cold sweat from his forehead and looked at Wang Teng with his pair of small, anxious eyes.

“It’s not impossible.” Wang Teng rubbed his chin. “All right, I won’t be too fierce!”

Everyone logged onto the chat platform heard their conversation and burst into laughter.

“Hahaha, this is hilarious.”

“Why is this guy such a fraidy cat? To even ask Wang Teng to go easy on him.”

“Wade: Rubbish, this isn’t cowardice. It’s me being careful.”

“Right, right. Being careful.”

“I’m dying from laughter. This is the first time I’ve seen such an odd opening match.”

“Wang Teng is too strong. He even stunned the fat man into submission.”

“I suddenly pity Wade.”

“Let’s have three minutes of sympathy for Wade.”

“Wade: Can you be gentle?”

“Wang Teng: All right, I’ll reluctantly agree since you’re a coward.”

…

“Start!”

As if taken aback with their conversation, the light sphere produced a resounding voice, urging the two.

Wang Teng and Wade looked solemn.

Boom!

In the next moment, both figures disappeared from their former spots and clashed, causing streaks of light.

Wang Teng held his sword and exchanged blows with the incoming ax. Both weapons met in the sky, producing a dazzling light.

Our hero used water Force to directly counter his opponent’s fire Force; he chose not to reveal more of his other attributes.

“Well well. You’re a wolf in sheep’s clothing, fatty.” Wang Teng smiled when he sensed the force coming out from his opponent.

“You misunderstood, big brother. I’m so fat… just a fat sheep. I can’t possibly be a wolf.” Wade grinned.

“Interesting. Come again!” Wang Teng snickered. He disappeared again and swung his sword from a different direction, slashing towards his opponent.

Wade’s fat body was surprisingly nimble. He moved quickly in a small area, narrowly avoiding the blow and taking the initiative to attack.

The pair clashed a dozen times in the air, causing sounds of explosion.
