Unparalleled genius!
In the past, he would have scoffed at these words.
After climbing to his status and witnessing many extraordinary geniuses over the years, he knew that only a few could be considered unparalleled in the world.
The Leader of Martial Arts in Country Xia was one of them.
He had received the report of the events in the exchange and knew that Yoke wasn’t exaggerating. Wang Teng from Country Xia could be considered an unparalleled genius.
Still, Cromwell said, “There’s a saying in Country Xia—the brave will win in an unavoidable confrontation. If you are scared of him, you will lose the motivation to improve and you will never have a chance of beating him in the future.”
“Yes!” the martial warriors’ expression changed as they replied hurriedly.
Especially Shuen, Fortes, Marsha, and the other young people who felt dejected and disheartened after the exchange. They were staggered when they heard his words.
Cromwell nodded and continued, “T’ll ask them to pay close attention to Wang Teng and send new intelligence personnel to Country Xia. We must get his full information.
“These are uncertain times. The star beasts are behaving abnormally. There have been many sightings of star beasts in mountain ranges, forests, and the sea, with the Amazon forest being the most dangerous. There might be a huge crisis soon. You need to raise your ability quickly.”
Everyone was astounded when they heard this.
“Could it be— Yoke turned serious. He wanted to probe further, but he was interrupted by Cromwell.
“This is not something you have to know. Just follow your orders.” Cromwell waved his hand, not wishing to comment further.
He turned to look at Kune and snorted. “Useless. I can’t imagine how he got forced to this state by a martial warrior from Country Neon. If he can’t wake up, let him stew in his own juice. We don’t have free resources and time to waste on a useless person.”
Shuen and the other martial warriors felt sad for the loss of their comrade. However, they didn’t dare to speak up for him. This was not something they could change. They could only improve themselves so that they wouldn’t land in the same state as Kune. They hoped that he could wake up himself. If
not, no one could help him.
“Country Neon seems to have other thoughts,” Yoke hesitated before saying.
“Ignore them. Let’s see what they want to do.” Cromwell scoffed.
“Report!” Someone knocked on the door at this moment.
“Come in.” Cromwell frowned.
An officer opened the door and entered. He whispered into Cromwell’s ear before handing over a folder to him.
Cromwell tured serious after reading the report. “Take a look at this.”
Yoke and the others took the folder and looked through it. They were flabbergasted.
“Looks like we underestimated Wang Teng!” Cromwell’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Country Xia and the White Eagle Nation had always been competitors. Hence, the appearance of a powerful martial warrior, who was also very young, wasn’t a good piece of news for them.
Country Neon.
The center of Jianghu City was lined with majestic and stately buildings. They were circled by the Jianghu river, with bronze statues and an ancient-looking wall surrounding it. Normal people couldn’t get near the buildings.
The visitors would be welcomed by a huge plaza with lush green trees all around it. Small pavements made of broken rocks winded deep into the plaza.
This was where the imperial family of Country Neon lived!
At the moment, Shennai Tongji and Shanben Quan were waiting in a huge hall.
Shanben Quan stood respectfully in the middle of the hall while Shennai Tongji sat on a chair along the side of the great hall without minding her image. She had her legs crossed and was eating some snacks as if this place was her home.
A middle-aged man sat in the host’s seat. His expression was interesting. He seemed furious yet helpless at the same time. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.
After some time, he placed his hand on his forchead and said, “Tongji, you shoudn’t have fought with the White Eagle Nation.”
Although he was reprimanding her, his tone seemed weak.
“Why not? Those martial warriors from the White Eagle Nation aren’t that powerful,” Shennai Tongji said expressionlessly.
“We need to rely on them,” the middle-aged man replied helplessly.
“That’s your problem, not mine.” Shennai Tongji finished her snacks and clapped her hands. She got up, wanting to leave. “If there’s nothing, I’l leave first.”
“Wait.” The middle-aged man stopped her hurriedly. “Tell me more about Wang Teng from Country Xia.”
Shennai Tongji hesitated. The young man’s impressive figure flashed past her mind.
She said, “He’s very strong!
“Lurge you not to be his enemy.”
She turned around and left without giving the middle-aged man another chance to speak.
A hint of astonishment flashed passed the middle-aged man’s face. He knew how proud Shennai Tongji was, yet she still regarded Wang Teng highly. No, it was more appropriate to say that she feared him.
The middle-aged man turned to Shanben Quan and asked, “Is that young man really so strong?”
“None of the martial warriors from other countries was his match,” Shanben Quan hesitated before answering.
The middle-aged man’s expression turned grim. He muttered to himself, “Country Xia, Country Xia.”
He looked in the direction of Country Xia in deep thought.
Shanben Quan stood below with his hands beside him. He didn’t dare to interrupt the man.
Right then, someone knocked on the door and entered the hall.
“What’s the matter?” the middle-aged man frowned and asked.
“Your Highness, I have an important piece of news,” the person kneeled and said in a low voice.
This middle-aged man was the emperor of Country Neon.
“Bring it up,” the emperor said.
The man immediately handed the information over to the middle-aged man. Then, he retreated respectfully.
As the emperor of Country Neon skimmed through the report, his expression changed entirely. He reread the report carefully one more time, afraid of missing any detail.
Shanben Quan lowered his head even further when he saw the emperor’s reaction. At the same time, he wondered what kind of information could make his emperor regard it with this much importance.
After some time, the emperor of Country Neon sighed.
“Country Xia is indeed a powerful nation.” There was bitterness in his voice and jealousy in his eyes.
Shanben Quan felt even more puzzled.
“Take a look.” The emperor passed the report to him.
Shanben Quan was bewildered after he read the report. He stammered, “He killed eight holy knights and the devil lord after the dark apparition resurrected. He even possesses the light Force! This…”
He didn’t know what to say. The image of that young man appeared in his mind, and his heart shuddered.
This was a fear from the depth of his soul.
This young man’s talent made him fearful.
Besides the White Eagle Nation and Country Neon, the other big nations like Country Boar, Country Inka, Country Bat, and the Large Eagle Nation had also received similar reports, earlier or later.
The entire world was in an uproar. Undercurrents were churning below the calm surface of the lake..
