1465 An Unknown Giant Palm! There was an eerie silence on the live chat platform. Many people found it unacceptable when Wang Teng forced Ling Yangxu to leave. Even worse, he kept sticking to the latter like plaster. This was “Shameless!” “Despicable! I want to kill this thick-skinned brat!” “Let’s do it!” “Let’s go. I can’t bear to watch, either. How can someone have such thick skin?” “Cough, I suddenly pity this Ling Yangxu. He’s in a worse state than the warriors from the Parkers family. “Bastard, let go of my Ling Yangxu. Stop pestering him. Y’all don’t have a future.” “You first have to check if you’re suitable.” “Hey, this sounds wrong!” The audience was furious. They cried out because of the injustice, no longer able to stomach Wang Teng’s devious acts. Unfortunately, the culprit couldn’t see their responses so he didn’t care. He wouldn’t let go of that tool easily. The Thunderhorn Antelope herd wasn’t important; there were many other lightning-element star beasts in Zone 2. Hence, a funny scene took place in Zone 2. The first place holder, Ling Yangxu, rushed forward at a fast speed while turning his head occasionally, as if something were chasing him. He didn’t look good. There was exasperation, helplessness, grievances various emotions piled up to form his troubled expression. “What’s going on?” “Ling Yangxu seems to be hiding from someone.” “Really? He’s the top ranker in Zone 2 and should be the most powerful expert there. Who can pressure him into running?” “Maybe his ex is chasing him. Look at his expression Doesn’t it look like this?” “Now that you mention it, it makes sense.” “His ex came to find him in the League of Talents? Is he a jerk discarding girls after playing with them?” “Oh my god, Ling Yangxu’s ex came to find him in the League of Talents!” “Gosh, I almost believed you!” Many martial warriors recognized Ling Yangxu, so there was much talk when they saw him flee in Zone 2. Some even wondered if he was chased by a lady because he was a scumbag. This generation of martial warriors had a vivid imagination. Ling Yangxu heard their voices and his face turned black. To hell with that ex-girlfriend crap! What on earth are they thinking? Wang Teng also heard the discussion. The corners of his lips trembled and his expression darkened. Did I just become Ling Yangxu’s ex? What a humiliation! He never expected his actions to cause such a disturbance. Those people’s imaginations were worse than his! Everybody’s so creative! He had no choice but to appear. If he didn’t, rumors would be even wilder. Bewilderment increased when they saw Wang Teng chasing the popular warrior. It was absurd. A warrior who came from who-knows-where was chasing Ling Yangxu! Compared to the latter, Wang Teng was just an unknown little figure. No one knew who he was. However, his name started to spread, following the incident of his chasing Ling Yangxu. As expected, the latter couldn’t bear it anymore and shouted, “Wang Teng, what do you want?” “I just want you to take me along. Others will catch up soon if you don’t kill star beasts,” Wang Teng said. “I” Ling Yangxu felt like cursing. It was a competition, not a game. Why should I bring you along! But, Wang Teng was right. The no. 2 fellow would surpass him if he didn’t kill star beasts soon. The problem came. Was he going to give Wang Teng the best part of the deal? He wasn’t willing to let him steal a portion of the points he worked so hard for. “Stop hesitating. There’s no time left!” Wang Teng urged him earnestly. “Damn it!” Ling Yangxu cursed and finally charged into a group of lightning element star beasts angrily. He started his massacre. Wang Teng smiled. His points were finally there. The audience was flabbergasted. What happened to Ling Yangxu having a higher chance of winning? What’s with the situation now? What happened to the black-hearted Ling Yangxu? Had he resigned to his fate? “Wang Teng!” ... “A martial warrior from under the top ten!” “How can he force Ling Yangxu to this state?” “Is there something else going on?” Many warriors in Zone 2 were dumbfounded. They stared at the unknown fighter in disbelief, wondering what had happened. But soon after, everyone noticed the young hero’s rise in points. He went from no. 12 to no. 11, then to no. 10, no. “???” All warriors’ jaws were slack. They didn’t know how to describe what they felt. This is unbelievable! What happened? Wang Teng’s just standing there. How did his points go up? Someone looked up at the stone plate hanging above Zone 2 and wondered, “Did the stone plate’s break down?” ... “How’s that possible? How can the stone plate fail?” Some people were doubtful, since the stone plates had never gone wrong. The artifacts were controlled by the Seven Stellar Academies. It was highly unlikely for problems to arise. Ling Yangxu also noticed the changes to the ranking. The look on his face was dark and gloomy. Wang Teng’s quick rise was due to piggybacking on his fervent killing spree. It was infuriating! Ling Yangxu turned and scoffed at Wang Teng. “Wang Teng, enough. You’re already no. 6. What more do you want?” The former took a deep breath and shouted, “Just no.6? You were in the twelfth spot at first. You rose by six places. Don’t be greedy.” “Look at what you’re saying. I rose to no. 6 because I put in the effort to kill star beasts. What do you mean by saying I’m greedy?” “I” Ling Yangxu had never seen anyone as cheeky as him. Wang Teng’s shamelessness broadened his horizons. Putting in the effort?! Are you sure? You’ve been picking up bargains all this time. What gave you the guts to say that you’ve made the effort? How thick can your skin be? Ling Yangxu wasn’t good at arguing so he left again. He would find another chance to break free from that plaster. Another day passed. Only two days remained for the elimination round to end. Wang Teng had risen to the fourth place in Zone 2, and was getting closer to no. 1. Ling Yangxu’s heart sank. He tried every means possible to get rid of the leech, but to no avail. He could only watch helplessly as the other rose in rank. “Oh no, will Ling Yangxu lose to Wang Teng? I bet 30,000 UC on him!” “30,000 UC only? I’m betting all my fortune!” “A poor fellow would like to ask how much your entire fortune is.” “Not much, just 250 UC.” Silence. “There’s two days left; there are still two places between them. That isn’t a huge gap. Will Ling Yangxu be able to turn the tides around? If he can’t” “I think it’s difficult. Ling Yangxu is being oppressed to the point of suffocation.” “Sigh, I thought Ling Yangxu was evil, but he pales in comparison with Wang Teng.” “I admit that Wang Teng is the most shameless martial warrior!” “I dare to say that Wang Teng will win!” “A shameless person is invincible. If he doesn’t win, no one will!” Rounds of discussions blew up on the live chat platform. Those betting on Ling Yangxu were panicking. It was understandable why they felt anxious. They had invested all their fortune, not just 250 UC. As for Wang Teng, his shameless image was deeply ingrained in everyone’s minds. It couldn’t be removed. Most of the people believed he could reach the no. 1 spot, but their confidence wasn’t based on his ability. Rather, it was cemented on his shamelessness. On the Great Qian Academy’s spacecraftPei Tianzhou and the others felt exasperated. They didn’t think that their talented student, Ling Yangxu, would be cornered with such a strange method. “This” Bao Dewen trembled in anger. He was at a loss of words. He had high hopes for that talent, looking forward to seeing him achieve good results. But, the poor fellow met a huge obstacle in the first round of the competition. The obstacle was Wang Teng’s clone, someone whom he looked down upon in the beginning. The damage was low, but it was highly insulting. “It’s all right. This is just the elimination round. We can bounce right back after this if we do end up losing.” Pei Tianzhou shook his head. “In fact, Yangxu hasn’t lost. Why are you panicking?” Bao Dewen felt embarrassed by what the president said. He was a vice-president, but he lost his composure just then. That was unbecoming of him. In Zone 2Ling Yangxu dashed into a mountain range. The sky was cloaked in a dense veil of black clouds, crackling with flashes of lightning that struck the mountains below. Wang Teng followed without thinking too much. They rushed into the mountains one after the other. Ling Yangxu wreaked havoc in the mountain range, alerting all the star beasts that lived there. They pounced on the two martial warriors. Wang Teng couldn’t hide anymore, considering the situation. He had to personally take action and kill star beasts. A smile finally appeared on Ling Yangxu’s face when he saw this happen. He kept diving deeper into the mountains, where the creatures were stronger. They were the only ones able to hold Wang Teng back. He could finally break free! The pair of fighters quickly flew deeper into the mountains. Right when they passed a huge mountain, Ling Yangxu repeated his previous actions and slashed with his long spear to attack a place in the landscape below. Lightning attacks struck the body of the mountain. Force fluctuations were swept out, covering a few thousand meters of land. Trees and rocks tumbled and collapsed; a huge hole was blasted open in the mountain’s belly. Ling Yangxu smiled coldly and turned to leave. Roar! Suddenly, a throaty and angry roar erupted below, akin to a volcanic blast. The sound boomed across the mountains, sending shockwaves through the ground like a massive earthquake. Ling Yangxu’s smile froze. What is that sound?! Boom! Right when the question popped upthe mountain below him trembled violently. Rocks cascaded down, while trees groaned and collapsed. The mountain’s body was detached, rising steeply from the ground. Wang Teng stopped and stared at a place ahead of him. He activated his Real Eye and saw a ball of extremely dense lightning Force. Ling Yangxu was unlucky. He wished for the powerful star beasts to hold the other back, but he ended up provoking a formidable presence. The fellow understood the situation and his expression changed. He retreated furiously without thinking. Just then, a large hand emerged from the mountain and grabbed Ling Yangxu. The latter’s pupils shrank. He was appalled but there was no time to hesitate. Glaring light blossomed around his purple long spear as Force was gathered; it struck down like a true bolt of lightning. The attack was shot towards the rough and wrinkled hand. Bang! The spear glow collided with the power of lightning swarming around the hand, releasing a blast that spread to the mountains. The spear glow was instantly shattered, while the hand kept a firm hold of the warrior. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂 Ling Yangxu’s expression changed entirely. He frantically retreated, but was still slower than the large hand. He was slapped. Boom! Ling Yangxu was thrown backwards like a sandbag. He vomited a mouthful of blood in midair. Another hand emerged, wanting to slap Ling Yangxu again. The latter squinted. A blinding purple glow erupted from his body as he scrambled to make his escape at the speed of light. The large hand failed to hit him.
