Chapter 439 He Who Insults Others Insults Himself!

Those nearby were taken aback.

None of them had anticipated that Su Ping would actually resort to action! Also, Su Ping did it so quickly that none of them saw it coming!

Xiao Fengxu’s face became clouded. He glared at Su Ping, clearly furious.

“What do you think you’re doing?!” Kong Lingling couldn’t help but scream.

“I could have done more,” Su Ping said, indifferently.

Xiao Fengxu kept his eyes on Su Ping as he asked, “Are you an advanced battle pet warrior? Do you know the consequences of attacking a trainer from the Heavenly Dragon Academy in the Holy Light Base City?”

Advanced battle pet warrior?!

Kong Lingling and Hu Rongrong eyed Su Ping with surprise.

Su Ping seemed to be young. Was he honestly a battle pet warrior at the seventh rank?!

Hu Rongrong wore a confused look. Just then, Su Ping was so fast that she didn’t even see how he slapped Feng Yiliang. While she was a trainer, she did need astral powers as well and she was at the fifth rank. She was aware that Xiao Fengxu was at the sixth rank, the most powerful of all students of the third grade in the Heavenly Dragon Academy. Xiao Fengxu must have made the deduction based on his own rank.

“Good eyes.”

Su Ping didn’t deny it.

“Ridiculous!”

The young man with the brush cut was angered by Su Ping’s indifference. “Say you are an advanced battle pet warrior, so what? Advanced battle pet warriors will have to stand in a line to cozy up to us when they want some help from us! Now, kneel and apologize and we can move past this. Otherwise, you shall not see the outside world again!”

“So what?”

Su Ping squinted his eyes. “Trainers merely serve battle pet warriors. Without battle pet warriors, what can you trainers do? Do people rely on trainers when beasts invade our cities? If I wanted to take your life right this moment, do you think you could manage to stay alive?”

The young man with the brush cut bellowed, “How dare you!”

“I do dare!”

A glint of coldness rose in Su Ping’s eyes. He took a step forward.

Xiao Fengxiao was startled. How reckless this young man was! He wasn’t bluffing!

A trainer who fought any battle pet warrior was like an egg striking a rock, not to mention fighting advanced battle pet warriors. Not even Xiao Fengxu could have defeated the young man.

“Bro, cool down.”

A wise man knows when to retreat. Xiao Fengxu adopted a softer tone immediately. In the meantime, he stepped forward and unleashed his astral powers to build up many shields.

Bang, bang, bang, bang! Su Ping raised one hand to slap the young man with the brush cut. His hand landed on the diamond-shaped shields. The cracking sound lingered. Those shields were sturdy and yet none of them were able to slow Su Ping down, not for even one bit!

Xiao Fengxu was dumbstruck. He could build astral shields that could withstand attacks from the common seventh-rank beasts, thanks to his secret skill. But Su Ping had cracked all of them within one instant!

Whoosh!

A jade pendant flew out from Xiao Fengxu’s collar. As it gave out a gentle, green glow, the jade pendant turned into a round shield.

Bang!

As soon as the round shield had taken shape, Su Ping’s hand had landed upon it. The shield broke. As such, the jade pendant fell to the ground, cracked.

Although the green shield had been broken, Su Ping did feel his hand bounce back a bit. He raised his eyebrows. How interesting. Xiao Fengxu had such a treasure, one that could withstand his slap.

This…”

Xiao Fengxu turned pale in fright. He could not utter another word as he stared at the crack on the jade pendant.

That artifact strong enough to protect him against an attack from an average eighth-rank master battle pet warrior. However, Su Ping had broken it! He broke it with such ease! Was this young man a master battle pet warrior?! The young man with the brush cut who was standing behind Xiao Fengxu was greatly frightened; for the first time, he had understood the actual strength of advanced battle pet warriors. In all of his life, it had always been the advanced battle pet warriors who went to his door to butter him up. He had never taken battle pet warriors seriously. Still, what happened just then had stunned him. If Su Ping had honestly meant to kill him, there was no way that he could have survived!

He had always been told that trainers were valuable. Yet, at this critical moment, he knew that battle pet warriors were more dominating!

This dude is crazy!

The young man with the brush cut was frustrated but he was afraid to flaunt his superiority again.

“Hey, listen, man, this is all a big misunderstanding. We can talk it out,” Xiao Fengxu said to Su Ping in a hurry.

Even though Xiao Fengxu was an arrogant man, he was afraid to deal with such a ruthless character. None of them had left their homes with bodyguards or any other kind of security. If Su Ping were to kill them right there and then, he would be punished but that would not bring their lives back!

No one wanted to get involved with this lunatic.

The two girls were freaked out. They thought Su Ping was a gentle and mild man. Neither of them had expected that Su Ping would become so ferocious and scary all of a sudden.

“Misunderstanding? How so?” Su Ping eyed Xiao Fengxu with a spurious smile.

Xiao Fengxu looked awful. “I’m Xiao Fengxu. I will apologize on behalf of my friend.” “Why are you apologizing?” “…My friend has made a mistake. He offended you.” Xiao Fengxu could tell that Su Ping meant to humiliate him but he still had to go on.

“Oh, so he was wrong. I thought I was wrong.” Su Ping acted as if he had finally understood Xiao Fengxu’s words when his reply was laced with irony.

Both Xiao Fengxu and the young man with the brush cut pulled a long face at Su Ping’s sarcastic words and yet both of them knew that it was Feng Yiliang who had started it all. They could usually shout at anyone they wanted and those who offended them would have to admit defeat to protect themselves. However, this day, they had met a tough man.

“Now that you know you’re wrong, get down on your knees and say you’re sorry,” Su Ping said, smilingly.

His words shocked everyone.

The young man with the brush cut looked up at Su Ping

He was the one who had said those words to Su Ping, but then the latter had thrown those words back at him.

Xiao Fengxu looked pale. “Dude, I’ve already said I’m sorry. We don’t have to go this far over an argument, do we?”.

“You must adopt a good attitude when you apologize. How else can I be sure that you’re serious?” Su Ping put away his smile. “Besides, you weren’t the one who offended me, so you don’t have to apologize. He who said the words should stand up. The most basic thing about being a man is to be a man of his word before he demands the same from others, wouldn’t you say?” Xiao Fengxu felt embarrassed. “Why do you have to be like this? We’re the ones who invited you in!” Kong Lingling could not help but shout. She couldn’t accept to see Xiao Fengxu so insulted. In her mind, Senior Xiao was always elegant and calm. He had never been in such an awkward position.

“She did, not you. So, you shut up.” Su Ping darted a glance at Kong Lingling.

Furious, Kong Lingling shook Hu Rongrong’s arm. “Rongrong, look at him.”

After some hesitation, Hu Rongrong said to Su Ping, “Su, this is just a misunderstanding. Senior Xiao has apologized. How about we let it

go?”

Su Ping gazed at her. “I owe you one. Are you sure you want to waste that favor on begging for their sake?”

Hu Rongrong was relieved to see that Su Ping did seem to have softened his tone. “They’re all my schoolmates. I hope you won’t make it too hard on them.”

Su Ping looked at her for a while before he nodded. “Sure.”

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiao Fengxu felt he could finally breathe. Instantly, a strong surge of killing intent rose inside his heart. He had never been humiliated in public before, not to mention by a battle pet warrior. He was afraid to voice his anger, which he had never experienced before in his life.

How insulting!

But he didn’t show anger on his face, in case he would be humiliated again.

Su Ping glared at Xiao Fengxu and the other two standing next to him. Eager to seek revenge, huh? That was well within expectations. However, since he had promised Hu Rongrong to let it go, Su Ping decided not to do anything to them. Those were just some trainers. No matter how strong their hostility was, there was nothing they could do to him.

Even at the Subcontinent District level, Su Ping was afraid of no one, unless the legendary battle pet warriors made an appearance.

However, he could protect himself if it came to pass. The average legendary battle pet warriors at the Ocean State were unlikely to end his life.

At the same time, the fallen Feng Yiliang had finally managed to stand up. He shook his head, trying to clear his mind. He had been left dumbstruck by the slap.

He looked around before he finally saw the man who had slapped him. His eyes reddened as he shouted, “F*ck you…!” Before he could finish his verbal abuse, a terrified Xiao Fengxu—with sharp eyes and agile hands—covered Feng Yiliang’s mouth and dragged him back in case he would anger Su Ping again.

The young man with the brush cut and the short young man also hurried to restrain Feng Yiliang

Both of them had previously tried to talk Su Ping into leaving, but they just wanted to send Feng Yiliang away at the moment, in case he would enrage Su Ping again.

Su Ping darted a look at the stage. He wondered if it was an intermission or the match had already ended. Either way, no one had stepped up to the stage again. He lost interest. Without saying another word, he turned around and left the stadium.

Finally, Xiao Fengxu was able to relax his body.

“Oh, to hell with him!”

The young man with the brush cut kicked the chair next to him.

Xiao Fengxu kept a calm look but the anger in his eyes was obvious.

Feng Yiliang was surprised by the young man with the brush cut and his sudden outburst of anger. “What, what happened?”

After breaking more chairs, the young man with the brush cut finally yelled, “That punk is an advanced battle pet warrior. Damn it! So what? All advanced battle pet warriors have to beg me as if they were dogs. But he just threatened me. Sh*t. I’m going to kill him!” “Advanced battle pet warrior?”

Feng Yiliang couldn’t believe this. He looked around and saw the looks on the others’ faces. True, they did not think highly of battle pet warriors but they all had to admit that battle pet warriors could easily defeat them. Still, it was unusual for one of them to offend him like this. It was as if a millionaire were afraid to retaliate against a thug who had beaten him up. How humiliating that was!

“Call someone. We cannot let him go like this!” Feng Yiliang bellowed. The slap was quite forceful; his cheek was still burning up at the moment.

Kong Lingling and Hu Rongrong looked at each other, both startled by the boys’ reactions. Kong Lingling didn’t say anything. She wasn’t happy about Su Ping, either. He had made it clear that he had never paid attention to her.

But Hu Rongrong was worried. That was a nice day and it had been messed up just because Feng Yiliang was unable to control his mouth.

She would have felt sorry if something had happened to Su Ping. She wouldn’t have taken Su Ping in if she had known what was going to happen.

At this thought, Hu Rongrong gave Feng Yiliang another look. His bellow had made him look even more repulsive. At the end of the day, without him, nothing would have happened.

“Senior Xiao, we have other things to do. See you.” Hu Rongrong was not in the mood to stay for the rest of the competition.

Xiao Fengxu nodded to her.

Kong Lingling wanted to stay a bit longer, but had to leave with Hu Rongrong since she was adamant about it. A while later, the former began to vent her anger. “Rongrong…”

Feng Yiliang wanted to talk Hu Rongrong into staying but she turned her back at him.

The young man with the brush cut said to Feng Yiliang rudely, “Quit it with the sweet tone. She didn’t want to talk to you, weren’t you paying attention?” If it hadn’t been for Feng Yiliang, none of them would have been humiliated. Given the outcome, the young man with the brush cut was angry at Feng Yiliang.

Feng Yiliang glared at the young man. “That’s none of your business. She won’t talk to me? She will be mine sooner or later!”

Xiao Fengxu frowned. “Hu Rongrong’s grandpa is in the Trainers Association. You’d better be careful. Not even your Feng Family can afford to offend him.”

Feng Yiliang was unhappy to hear that but he didn’t talk back. “I understand, boss.” He nodded.

“Let’s go. I’m going to the Transportation Bureau to find out where that punk went off to.” Xiao Fengxu walked away and called someone.

…

Su Ping walked down the street for a bit.

The unique buildings were a constant reminder that he was away from home.

Soon, Su Ping hailed a cab and told the driver to get to the head office of the Trainers Association.
