Chapter 2216: The Battle Of Talents, Who Will Rise? (2) Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Wang Teng, seeing his attitude, no longer pressed for more information. After exchanging a few words, they bid farewell and went their separate ways. Wang Teng harbored no ill feelings toward Councilor Wu De. The councilor had assisted him several times. As for his not intervening in the matters of the Qingyan Society, Wang Teng had no reason to hold any grudges. As the saying goes, helping is a matter of kindness, and not helping is a matter of duty. Leaving the Academy Arbitration Association, Wang Teng retrieved his Devil Slayer spacecraft and flew towards his estate. Suddenly, Ernest, Hong Lie, and Antoine appeared in the sky, watching Wang Teng’s departing spaceship. “This time, let’s see if he can come back alive,” Ernest said with a sinister tone. “Ernest, you’ve embarrassed yourself this time. If we come out a bit later, it wouldn’t end well for you,” Hong Lie remarked. “Hmph! Why didn’t you tell me earlier that the president was backing him?” Ernest said. “We thought you already knew,” Antoine replied innocently. Ernest glanced at the two and said, “Since he’s backed by the president, by sending him to the Five Burial Star, will it cause trouble with the Judge?” “Not likely. The president and the Judge have already negotiated. Once Wang Teng enters the Academy Arbitration Association, he must abide by the rules of the Arbitration Association,” Antoine explained. “The president probably wants to give him some experience. He really values this kid,” Hong Lie remarked. “His talent is too extraordinary. He’s not even on the same level as Yuan Mu, and the difference between them is enormous,” Ernest frowned. “Yuan Mu possesses the Divine Constellation Physique, and yet he still can’t match him. It’s truly unbelievable,” Hong Lie said with a serious expression. “That’s right. That’s why we can’t let him grow.” Antoine agreed. “Hmph, if only he could behave a bit, but he insists on being at odds with us.” Antoine shook his head, chuckled, and said, “Well, every genius is proud.” “Stand out in the forest, and the wind will inevitably break it!” Hong Lie sneered. “Let’s be that gust of wind.” The three of them slowly disappeared from the spot. Their words were unheard by outsiders as if there was a field around them that isolated all sound. Undercurrents surged. The Stellar Academies had never been calm. In the contest of the most exceptional talents, who would prevail? Everything would be revealed in due time. Wang Teng returned to his estate and secluded himself in the cultivation room. “Round Ball, have you found out what’s going on with the Five Burial Stars?” Wang Teng sat down and asked directly. Round Ball’s figure emerged nearby, wearing a serious expression. Then, with a wave of its hand, it summoned a star map. In the star map, there was a completely unfamiliar planetary sector. Prominent in the scene were five enormous planets floating in the cosmic expanse. Surrounding the five planets was an odd kind of cosmic dust, forming a massive ring. “These are the Five Burial Stars!” Round Ball pointed at the five planets. “The Five Burial Stars isn’t just one planet. It’s the five planets.” “Are all five of these planets inhabited?” Wang Teng asked in surprise. “Yes, they’re all life planets. The environment on these five planets is harsh, but they harbor many powerful beings, and their influence is extremely vast. Outsiders can’t interfere, which is why the members of the Academy Arbitration Association can’t establish a foothold there,” Round Ball explained. “The councilors of the Academy Arbitration Association are at least at the heaven stage or even the universe stage. Could it be that there are powerful older generation experts on the Five Burial Stars?” Wang Teng frowned. “Aren’t they afraid of the Academy Arbitration Association? Mind you, the Stellar Arbitration Council is behind the Academy Arbitration Association.” “No, everything is within the rules, and that’s what makes it so tricky,” Round Ball said. The Five Burial Stars send out young warriors to deal with the members of the Academy Arbitration Association. These warriors are talented and powerful, matching or even surpassing the members of the Academy Arbitration Association.” “The younger generations of the Five Burial Planet are so powerful?” Wang Teng was surprised. The councilors of the Academy Arbitration Association were all talented martial warriors from the Stellar Academies. Their talent and ability were top-notch. It was unbelievable that they would be defeated one after another by the warriors from the Five Burial Stars. This didn’t make sense! “This is true. The warriors from the Five Burial Stars are incredibly powerful,” Round Ball said with a bitter smile. “Why doesn’t the Academy Arbitration Association send even more talented individuals? 1 find it hard to believe that they can’t find such geniuses.” Wang Teng questioned. “It’s probably because the Five Burial Stars is too remote and the environment is too harsh. Those geniuses are unwilling to go there,” Round Ball explained with a hint of helplessness. “It’s like a tough piece of meat—there’s not much flesh, and eating it is tasteless, but discarding it is a pity.” Wang Teng began to understand. He had been handed the toughest piece of meat. Others didn’t want to gnaw on it, but he had no choice. If he was careless, he might choke on it unintentionally. These people were shameless. Unable to prevent him from entering the Academy Arbitration Association, they used this method to make him suffer defeat on the Five Burial Stars. “If 1 go to the Five Burial Stars, will they send heaven-stage or universe-stage martial warriors?” Wang Teng pondered and asked. “They probably won’t,” Round Ball replied. “They wouldn’t dare to violate the rules to maintain this balance. If they didn’t follow the rules, the Academy Arbitration Association could have sent powerful individuals to suppress them. It’s a matter of the face of the Academy Arbitration Association.” “However, the situation behind the scenes is hard to discern. After all, such things cannot be investigated,” Round Ball stated. Wang Teng nodded thoughtfully and said, “Tell me about the distribution of power on the Five Burial Stars so that 1 can be prepared.” “Are you going?” Round Ball asked. “Of course,” Wang Teng replied with a faint smile. “They want me dead on the Five Burial Stars, but I’m going to subdue it just to show them.” “In the future, the Five Burial Stars will be my territory. Didn’t you say the martial warriors there are powerful and formidable? If 1 can bring them under my control, wouldn’t that be even more advantageous for me?” “Those veteran senators have their own forces that have developed over many years. 1 want to catch up as quickly as possible. Such a place undoubtedly suits me better.” “Uh…” Round Ball looked at him confidently and couldn’t help but feel speechless. She said, “You don’t even know if you can protect yourself, and now you want to subdue the Five Burial Stars. Aren’t you thinking too much?” “Hahaha, it’s precisely because it’s difficult that it’s more challenging, and I like that,” Wang Teng said. “Just wait and see. If I don’t subdue the Five Burial Stars, then my name isn’t Wang Teng.” “Alright, as long as you’re confident,” Round Ball said. “Do you want to find a few more powerful warriors to accompany you and ensure your safety?” “Hmm, I think that would be a good idea,” Wang Teng pondered. Round Ball: —*_-? Wang Teng: (= u)”=) Round Ball had just finished explaining the power distribution of the Five Burial Stars to Wang Teng when someone approached. “Tong En, why is she here?” Wang Teng asked in surprise when he saw the person on the screen. “She’s probably here to congratulate you,” Round Ball replied with a smile. “Let her in,” Wang Teng instructed. Then he added, “Well, I’ll go and meet her myself.” Tong En was his senior sister. He mustn’t treat her impolitely. After reaching the entrance, Wang Teng opened the main gate and welcomed Tong En into the living room. He then spoke, “Senior Sister, why do you have the time to visit me today?” Here!” Tong En got straight to the point, presenting a jade box. “I’ve brought a gift to congratulate you. My sister heard that you became a councilor, so she specially asked me to bring this gift to celebrate your achievement.” “Your sister?” Wang Teng was surprised. He knew that Tong En’s sister was a notable figure on the universe goddess ranking with considerable fame. It was unexpected that she would pay attention to a freshman like him. “Yeah, what do you think? My sister is keeping an eye on you. Are you secretly happy about it?” Tong En teased him, raising her eyebrows. “Well, I’m used to being observed. After all, I’m so handsome and talented,” Wang Teng said nonchalantly. “Tsk!” Tong En rolled her eyes.. This guy had thick skin!
