1546 Bruises On One’s Head! (2)

The other domain was a combination, the Golden Lightning Sword Domain!

The field power was mighty. Wang Teng had to use his third-ranked Flaming Magnetic Meteor Domain in order to defeat it, which attested to how powerful it was.

Golden Lightning Sword Domain: 500/2000 (second-rank)

1,500 attribute points pushed the latter all the way to the second-rank; a decent progress all in all.

Wang Teng looked at this attributes board and touched his chin. More domains were being added in; it would be good to merge them soon.

The match ended and the light sphere announced the young earthling as the winner.

“As expected of the Third Prince, you’re quite powerful,” Wang Teng muttered as he sized up the defeated noble below him. He seemed satisfied with his work.

The young hero didn’t expect his words to be caught by the live transmission. All the audience heard him, loud and clear.

“Quite powerful?”

“Haha, pardon me for laughing. Why does he sound a bit sarcastic?”

“Well, the Third Prince might like his compliment.”

“Not even the Third Prince can escape from the brick.”

“Vicious. The prince looks like he has a pig’s head now.”

“Oh no, what happened to my handsome Third Prince?”

…

On the Parkers family’s spacecraft—the Furious Flaming Universe Lord had a gloomy expression. “Even the Third Prince failed to be his match.”

“Strachey still has a last resort; he’ll be able to defeat Wang Teng,” Valteru replied. The statement sounded like he was convincing himself.

“That’s right. Strachey and Landon have one last move. They can beat Wang Teng,” Sinclamon agreed.

“Hmph!” The bald leader nodded and snorted. “This brat won the match but offended the imperial family in the process. Does he think they will let him go so easily?”

“Based on the Third Prince’s personality, he will certainly not let this go.” Valteru sneered.

Sinclamon’s gaze sharpened all of a sudden. “We can make use of this.”

…

On the imperial family’s spacecraft—the universe stage elder looked somewhat unhappy. “This Wang Teng went a little overboard. Little Three is still a prince; he shouldn’t have humiliated him.”

“Well, the lad is a little cruel.” The middle aged man from the imperial family coughed. “What a pity. Little Three has a domain that combines lightning and metal; he should have gone further.”

“We must seek redress from Wang Teng after the competition ends. No one can touch the imperial family,” said the universe stage elder with a serious tone.

“It’s all right. Why are you trying to meddle in matters of the younger generation?” the middle aged man replied helplessly.

“But…” The elder hesitated.

“You’re not listening to me anymore?” said the leading senior indifferently.

“I wouldn’t dare.” The elder quickly looked down in obeisance.

“I hope Little Three can learn from this lesson. He’s too arrogant.” The middle aged man shook his head.

The elder glanced at his superior, wanting to speak. Still, he just sighed and dropped the matter.

…

Wang Teng returned to his seat and was greeted by strange gazes.

“Why are y’all looking at me like that?” he asked.

“Wang Teng, you were a little brutal. My Third Brother will go crazy after he wakes up and sees his ugly face,” the Second Prince said.

“You can’t blame me. I planned to let him go but he charged at me again,” Wang Teng replied innocently.

“You didn’t have to do it this way.” Ji Haochen shook his head and sighed. “You know how the prince is. You’ve completely offended him; he probably hates you to the core now.”

They weren’t speaking up for the bashed noble. They were just worried that Wang Teng would be targeted after such provocation.

“It’s not that simple,” Wang Teng shook his head and continued calmly, “I have the horn of the Oceanic Unicorn Whale. Do you think he’ll let me off easily?”

The Second Prince and the others were stunned. Then, they understood and could only sigh.

“I knew my Third Brother would suffer one day because of his personality,” the Second Prince said with a conflicted expression, “I just didn’t think he would fall into your hands.”

A short while back, him and the haughty prince had merely deemed the young hero as a talent worth winning over.

But now, Wang Teng was at the same height as them. It was almost certain he would enter one of the Seven Stellar Academies.

Who knows? The earthling’s talent could very well be superior to theirs!

A person like him wouldn’t be bound by the powers of the Great Qian Empire.

Well, at least the Third Prince and him wouldn’t have the ability to rope in the hero. Only the empire’s ancestors would have the right to pull him under their wings.

Fortunately, Wang Teng was a citizen of the empire.

The matches continued.

There wasn’t much in regards to surprises in the following pairings. No one worth his attention came up.

Wang Teng closed his eyes and continued to develop his domain.

Time flew. All the matches were carried out successfully.

At last, the top 36 had emerged.

One of the eight dukedom families had lost the right to continue in the competition for the top eighteen positions. It was astonishing.

No one expected for one of the big families to lose.

Jin Xiangming was furious. The talents from the other families advanced, while they were the only ones who were defeated. It was a joke.

On the other hand, the Rodriguez family were elated. Not once did they meet the people from the Jin family during the matches, but they were still delighted to see their enemies being kicked out.

Of course, the most unlucky of all was the Third Prince.

He would have advanced if it weren’t for Wang Teng.

But, there were no ‘ifs’ in life. He met the earthling and lost.

There were two days of rest after the matches; then, the fight for the top eighteen began.

The atmosphere became increasingly tense. The warrior’s expressions turned grim.

Everyone seemed to be an opponent.

All thirty-six warriors would be paired up, so the chances of meeting were high.

On the light sphere—the names and avatars of all the remaining warriors blinked, followed by a random shuffle.

Within a few seconds, the images stopped and the candidates were displayed.

Xiahou Zun vs Wei Chang!

“Xiahou Zun from the Xiahou family is the first!” Everyone was surprised. They looked at said fellow.

The latter was the sole remaining talent from the Xiahou family taking part in the competition. He was a powerful fellow.

The other candidate wasn’t from any dukedom.

“Wei Chang is one of the top ten performers from Zone 6.”

“One of the top ten from Zone 6 managed to enter the top 36? He must have been hiding his strength at the start.”

“Interesting. I wonder if he can beat Xiahou Zun.”

…

The two candidates flew to meet in the sky and start a heated battle.

Everyone’s attention was on the pair.

They fought with all their might. All the ultimas and battle techniques in their arsenal were used.

Since he was part of a dukedom, Xiahou Zun had a stronger foundation. The battle techniques he had cultivated were all powerful.

Furthermore, his ultima was at the perfected tenth-level.

Explosions echoed. It was terrifying.

Wei Chang lost in the end. The winner executed a powerful ax technique infused with an ultima. The loser was hit, ending up heavily injured.

The Second Prince and the others entered the arena, one by one. After intense matches, all of them defeated their opponents.

All the Zone 1’s candidates were exceptional. They would never be eliminated, unless they fought against each other.

The fights continued until the thirteenth match. Wang Teng’s name finally came up.

Wang Teng vs Valmont!

“Huh?” Wang Teng slowly opened his eyes and noticed that his opponent was the mysterious youth in a black cape. He gasped.

Valmont gave him a strange feeling, but he couldn’t see anything using his Real Eye.

Also, besides being a little ruthless and cruel, the fellow acted normally throughout the competition.

He had dealt with all his opponents mercilessly, like an emotionless killing machine.

However, that was precisely why the young hero was keenly interested in him.
