Chapter 40: Blame You for Being Poor!
Chapter 40: Blame You for Being Poor!
Indeed, Wang Yuan fell for it. One Gold Coin for a chance to win the complete Divine Martial Scripture—the temptation was too great.
“Ding, you obtained an ordinary stone.”
Wang Yuan wasn’t disappointed because it was the Divine Martial Scripture. If he got it that easily, would it still be considered Divine Level?
So, he put in another Gold Coin.
Jiang Taixuan yawned. Now he just waited for Chen Luo and the others to auction things off for money. He wondered when they would come.
As for Feng Hao, Yuan Qing, and the others, he didn’t hold much hope. When those people rented, they never even came inside to look. They didn’t know how amazing this place was. They probably just thought of it as a place to rent strong fighters.
With the Hunting Competition over now, there was no need to rent fighters. They wouldn’t come if they had nothing to do.
He browsed the Celestial Network and found these people hid things very well. They hadn’t exposed this place at all.
Of course. If this place was exposed, wouldn’t that be admitting they cheated on the exam?
Moreover, Divine Level items! If you knew about them, who would go around telling people? This was an opportunity. Would you selflessly notify others instead of working hard to improve your own strength and leave them behind?
After a quarter of an hour, Wang Yuan sighed softly and left the Turntable. His pockets were now emptier than his face.
“Mingming, let’s go home!” Wang Yuan called out directly.
“Coming.” Wang Mingming hurried over from the distance, unable to hide the smile on his face. Now, that Xiao Cheng or whoever was no match for him!
Jiang Taixuan smiled and saw them off. Watching the father and son leave, he was about to return to the Dojo when an angry roar sounded from ahead.
“Wang Mingming, you really are here!”
As the roar rang out, two figures walked over with cold faces. Their eyes were filled with anger. “You really came here to rent a fighter! You cheated!”
“Yu Ming? Mentor?” Wang Mingming was stunned, then sneered. “I cheated? So what if I cheated? Dare you say you killed those two Innate Monster Beasts?”
“I…” Yu Ming opened his mouth but was left speechless.
Although he was at the Martial Arts Ninth Stage, even an Innate Realm expert might not be able to kill an Innate Monster Beast, let alone two.
“Since you both faked it, why act all righteous?” Wang Mingming sneered. At this moment, he wasn’t afraid at all. “If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being poor! Blame yourself for having no money!”
Yu Ming trembled with rage, wishing he could tear Wang Mingming apart. But Wang Yuan was right there, a peak expert in the Innate Realm. He didn’t dare move.
The Mentor who came with him darkened his expression and looked at Wang Yuan. “Brother Wang, is this how you usually teach Wang Mingming? Faking and cheating, he admitted it himself. Does he not want to stay at Clear Moon Academy anymore?”
Wang Yuan lifted his eyelids and looked expressionlessly at the Mentor. “Yu Qing, how I teach my son is none of your business. As for Clear Moon Academy, do you call the shots? Who do you think you are?”
Knowing the wonders of the Divine Devil Dojo, where having money solved everything, Wang Yuan couldn’t be bothered to care about this Mentor anymore.
Wang Mingming smiled. Now, you still expect my dad to pressure me? You two idiots!
“You… you dare speak to me like this?” Mentor Yu Qing was furious. Wang Yuan, who used to be meek and never dared speak loudly in front of him, actually didn’t put him in his eyes?
“All four of you, if you want to argue, please leave. Don’t interrupt my business.” Jiang Taixuan frowned and spoke.
“Jiang Taixuan! So it’s you. You dare secretly break the rules? You helped them cheat on the academy exam too, right?” When Yu Qing saw Jiang Taixuan, fury surged in his eyes. “You good-for-nothing, you dare violate exam rules, sabotage the academy exam? Prepare to be kicked out of the academy!”
Wang Yuan and Wang Mingming looked at him strangely, as if looking at a fool. Was this guy stupid? Didn’t he see three strong fighters standing right there?
Any one of these three could easily beat Yu Qing.
“So it’s you, the good-for-nothing. My Mentor and I couldn’t believe it before. Not until Wang Yuan spoke up and got you here. But we still couldn’t believe it. Now, it’s actually true.”
A flicker of shock passed through Yu Ming’s eyes, then he sneered. “As a good-for-nothing of Clear Moon Academy, your job is to tend the Herb Field and hand over the herbs. You dare sabotage the academy exam? By academy rules, you deserve death!”
Jiang Taixuan’s gaze turned icy, a cold glint flashing. “You don’t have the authority. If you want to punish me, let the academy’s Enforcement Hall come!”
“Ha, can’t punish you? You’re just a discarded good-for-nothing. Why wouldn’t I have the authority to punish you?” Yu Qing laughed in extreme anger, murderous intent blazing in his eyes. “Today, I’ll kill you. Let’s see who can do anything about me!”
“You said… kill who?”
Three icy voices sounded at once. Three powerful auras surged. A feeling of death swept over them. A long bow hung in the air, spiritual energy forming into arrows.
Purple-gold twin hammers trembled. Two huge hammer shadows manifested. Lightning crackled. A terrifying aura rose.
Golden light swirled. Long hair flew. Good wine was lifted from the jar. Drunkenness led to killing!
“Foundation Building, Peak Innate Realm!” Yu Qing’s face changed, and he sucked in a cold breath.
These three people standing there were actually two at Foundation Building and one at Peak Innate Realm!
Although he was a Mentor and not weak, he was only at the mid Innate Realm. And judging by the auras of these three, they were not ordinary Foundation Building or Innate Realm experts. Any one of them could easily beat him!
“I am a Mentor of Clear Moon Academy. You dare attack me?”
Yu Qing forced down the shock in his heart and spoke angrily. These three hadn’t acted yet and were still watching Jiang Taixuan’s expression. Clearly, they followed his orders.
Although he didn’t understand why three powerful fighters would listen to a good-for-nothing, this good-for-nothing was a good-for-nothing of Clear Moon Academy. He used to be a student. Now he was just a servant, a lowly servant guarding the Herb Field.
He didn’t believe a servant would really dare be so bold as to attack him. This was challenging Clear Moon Academy!
“Mentor Yu Qing is an academy Mentor. I am also a top genius of the academy. You, a lowly servant, dare challenge us, dare challenge Clear Moon Academy?” Yu Ming roared as well.
“Field Master!” The three Gods and Demons were furious. They wished they could destroy Yu Qing right now. But Jiang Taixuan had been holding them back, making it hard for them to act.
Looking at Yu Qing and Yu Ming, Jiang Taixuan’s lips curved into a mocking smile. “Don’t be too violent. Leave them alive. This is my gratitude for Clear Moon Academy’s nurturing kindness!”
“You dare… pfft.”
Yu Qing was enraged. Before he could speak, his vision suddenly blurred. A pain shot through his abdomen. He spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying.
“If the Field Master hadn’t spoken, that punch would have killed you!”
Li Yuanba’s gaze was icy as he looked down at Yu Qing.
“Ah…”
A miserable cry came. Before Yu Ming could react, he followed Yu Qing’s fate.
“Uncle.” In his pain, Yu Ming cried out.
“I wondered how Yu Ming could possibly kill an Innate Monster Beast. So Mentor Yu Qing is his uncle.” Wang Mingming sneered. “Since you both cheated, why keep hounding me? Think you’re so noble?”
“Field Master, we’ll be leaving first.” Wang Yuan suddenly spoke, pulling Wang Mingming away.
“Dad, aren’t we going to watch the show?” Wang Mingming felt a bit regretful.
“Watch what show? Son, let’s discuss something. Go back and beg your mom to take out all the money saved over the years.” Wang Yuan whispered.
“Dad, will mom agree?” Wang Mingming felt tempted.
“You go beg. I’ll help talk. It’ll definitely work.” Wang Yuan said.
“Alright then. Let’s hurry back. Don’t let Tang Yuelu get ahead again. She’s already several steps ahead of me.” Wang Mingming said urgently.
Watching the father and son leave, Jiang Taixuan said nothing. His gaze toward Yu Qing was filled with ice and contempt.
