Boom!

The Ghostdom Serpent was hurled by the hit, smashing through the walls of the conference room and landing on the plaza outside, breaking several luxury cars parked nearby.

The serpent’s head that Su Ping had punched had been reduced into a piece of flesh; a pool of blood was formed, and even the remains had been blown away.

The other two serpent’s heads were bleeding through the scales as well. The Ghostdom Serpent was getting light-headed. In the conference room, many portraits of master trainers tumbled down as the walls cracked by the impact!

Those inside quickly fled from the conference room, running in different directions.

Few people got hurt. The trainers were not strong in combat but given the fact that this was a minor disaster where a building was falling, anyone with astral powers of the third or fourth rank would have escaped unharmed.

Whoosh!

Two people flew out. It was Su Ping and Lone Star.

Lone Star remained in utter shock. At that moment, he even felt suffocated because of the pressure coming off from the young man. Was the young man merely at the titled rank?!

“How about you get a taste of my fist?”

Su Ping glared at Lone Star.

Electric arcs emerged under Su Ping’s feet. He dashed over at an incredible speed and punched at Lone Star.

Frightened, the moment Lone Star noticed the power of the punch, he turned around and ran without the slightest hesitation!

He ran at full speed!

Whoosh!

In an instant, Lone Star had traversed more than a thousand meters. In the meantime, the Wind Chanter had also moved closer to him. With the Wind Chanter’s help, Lone Star was able to speed up further.

Su Ping missed his target. But the punch did make a huge pit on the ground. Su Ping was forced to stop. He raised his head and stared at Lone Star who was hiding in the distance.

Su Ping knew that he couldn’t be as fast as one at the peak of the titled rank.

Lone Star heaved a sigh of relief to see Su Ping stopping. Only then did Lone Star notice that he was covered in a cold sweat. What a narrow escape.

If it weren’t for the fact that Su Ping couldn’t teleport, Lone Star would have believed that the young man was actually at the legendary rank.

Lone Star turned his head and darted a glance at the Ghostdom Serpent which was lying on the ground, barely breathing, and its smashed head. Lone Star immediately summoned a healing pet to treat the Ghostdom Serpent. In the meantime, Lone Star summoned another two battle pets as he kept his gaze on Su Ping, highly alerted.

Su Ping stood in the air. He didn’t continue his attack. He didn’t kill people just for killing’s sake; he was winning a chance for communicating as equals.

If the Trainers Association were still unwilling to treat him seriously after he had demonstrated his strength, he would not mind taking things to another level.

Many trainers had come out from the collapsed building. Some master trainers and the guards summoned astral shields to escort some trainers that were weaker in strength.

Everyone was dumbstruck as they looked at the collapsed building.

Then, they noticed the young man who was standing in the air. The onlookers, to their surprise, realized what had happened. Just then, everything went down too fast for them to see clearly how Su Ping and Lone Star had fought. The result was clear. Lone Star had summoned his battle pet and had still been unable to bring Su Ping down.

Who on earth is that young man?!

As the building tumbled down, the loud noise was spread across the headquarters of the Trainers Association.

Many titled battle pet warriors who were elsewhere and other master trainers hurried over, either flying or running. Soon, several titled battle pet warriors had arrived.

When those people saw the Ghostdom Serpent and Lone Star, they were even more baffled, wondering about what produced such an outcome. They went closer to ask about the details from Lone Star.

But Lone Star still kept his eyes on Su Ping, not paying attention to the people questioning him.

Lone Star was then certain that he couldn’t defeat Su Ping. Those average titled battle pet warriors who had arrived were definitely inferior to Su Ping. He would remain unbeatable, unless more titled battle pet warriors at the peak arrived.

But Su Ping appeared to be secure, acting as one who had a strong backing, which must be the reason why he dared to create troubles there.

As such, Lone Star was afraid of the force Su Ping belonged to.

Up until then, Lone Star was unable to determine Su Ping’s background. He had gathered some fame in the circle of titled battle pet warriors and he knew most of those at the peak. Still, he had never heard of this young man.

Besides, he could tell that there were more secrets about Su Ping than he let on. Was Su Ping a legendary battle pet warrior? Not likely. On the other hand, the abilities that Su Ping demonstrated were stronger than those of other titled battle pet warriors at the peak of their rank and presumably stronger than him. At least, Lone Star knew he couldn’t have crushed the Ghostdom Serpent so easily.

His pet was more powerful than he was. He might even lose to the Ghostdom Serpent in a fight, let alone defeating it with a single move! On the ground, Master Bai as well as many other master trainers had stepped outside the ruins. They were still in great shock. They were all aware of Lone Star’s strength. But it turned out that not even Lone Star was able to take Su Ping down!

Lone Star was at the peak of the titled rank!

He was someone who was second only to legendary battle pet warriors. Titled battle pet warriors at the peak who worked at the headquarters of the Trainers Association were few and far between!

Only the top trainers could have forged some friendship with those battle pet warriors like Lone Star. All the master trainers had to tread carefully when they were in the presence of battle pet warriors at the peak of the titled rank!

After all, the latter mastered battle pets with ninth-rank bloodlines. Only top trainers could have helped those battle pets advance!

In the meantime, Shi Haochi and his friends were staring at Su Ping with mouths agape.

It never occurred to them that Su Ping would be so threatening!

He had punched a titled battle pet warrior to death and had just shown his ability to defeat Lone Star!

Not even Shi Haochi was able to believe that Su Ping was a trainer.

No trainer could do that!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

More and more people arrived. In an instant, dozens of people had arrived and they were all titled battle pet warriors! To their astonishment, the building had tumbled down. They had been working at the headquarters of the Trainers Association for years and yet they had never met anyone with the guts to put up a fight there. “What is going on?”

All of a sudden, a group of people came rushing from the crowd of onlookers. The leader of the group was a gray-haired old man in his sixties. He looked full of life and his eyes were as clear as those of a man in his youth.

The man was wearing a dark robe with a golden hem. He was well-dressed and there was a hexagonal medal he wore on his chest. The medal indicated that this man was a top trainer.

It was usual that top trainers no longer needed to wear the medal to verify their identities, given their fame. Sometimes, they wouldn’t even bother to wear their distinctive robes. However, this old man’s robe appeared to be neat and well taken care of.

The onlookers breathed in relief after their initial surprise to see the old man.

“It’s the Vice Chairman.”

“Look, the Fire Lord came with the Vice Chairman!”

“The Vice Chairman is here. I wonder what will happen to that young man.”

The onlookers gazed at the group.

Lone Star was relieved to see the Vice Chairman and the Fire Lord making their way over. He reached them in a dash. He darted a glance at Su Ping and then quickly told the two what happened.

The Vice Chairman sized up Su Ping in surprise.

Standing behind the Vice Chairman was the Fire Lord. He was strong and had hair red as fire. Instead of black, the Fire Lord’s eyes were crimson colored.

Fire Lord squinted his eyes as Lone Star told the story.

He and Lone Star were both at the peak of the titled rank. They had never gotten into a big fight but they would practice together now and then. Fire Lord knew Lone Star’s Ghostdom Serpent very well.

Fire Lord looked worried as he looked at the Ghostdom Serpent that was lying on the ground while receiving treatment.

“Are you the trainer from the Longjiang Base City that we invited?” the Vice Chairman asked Su Ping. Instead of sounding furious, his tone was quite friendly. Su Ping nodded to him. “I lost my invitation but yes, I am the one.”

The Vice Chairman nodded. “Why the commotion, then?”

“Master Shi explained my identity but they did not trust me. That Master Ding claimed that he would ban me, so I taught him a lesson. As for the others, they attacked me without a good reason so I had to punish them.”

“Nonsense!”

From the ruins climbed out a man. It was Master Ding whom Su Ping had forced down to his knees. Since Su Ping was elsewhere, Master Ding had already crawled up. Due to the humiliation, Master Ding was so overwhelmed by wrath that he wasn’t in his sane mind.

“Vice Chairman, do not listen to him. He’s talking nonsense. Kill him. Not even death could help him atone for his sins! What will become of the headquarters of the Trainers Association if he’s not punished with death?!”

His angry yell echoed across the quiet plaza. The onlookers could not believe what a mess Master Ding was in. It was unexpected that he would be so irritated by the humiliation. On the other hand, it was understandable. That insult that came with kneeling in public would have been unbearable for any of them. Su Ping darted him a glare. He flicked his finger and a puff of astral powers reached toward Master Ding like a sword. “Well?”

The Fire Lord was alerted while standing behind the Vice Chairman. Su Ping still had the guts to use violence when the Vice Chairman was present. How audacious!

A glint of red glow rose in the Fire Lord’s eyes. A gust of burning astral powers flew out and bumped into Su Ping’s astral powers. The two energies canceled each other. Su Ping raised his eyebrows and cast a questioning look at the Fire Lord. The fact that Su Ping did this was also a surprise to the Vice Chairman who had underestimated Su Ping’s rage. “I remember the one we invited is named Su Ping. Are you Mr. Su? There must be some mistake. I hope we can sit down and have a talk. If Master Ding was the one who started it, I will make sure that he’ll properly apologize to you.”

Su Ping did not expect that the Vice Chairman would be so reasonable.

People like Master Bai would have scolded him without asking “Of course.”

Su Ping agreed, which was to the Vice Chairman and Lone Star’s relief. The latter indeed was afraid of another round of contention. He wasn’t sure of bringing Su Ping down even if he and the Fire Lord were to work together. After all, Lone Star’s major pet, the Ghostdom Serpent, had been disabled in a single exchange.

Lone Star knew that he could not have survived Su Ping’s punch. “Mr. Su, come with me. Master Bai, and you guys, come with me and tell me the details,” the Vice Chairman said to Su Ping and to the others. He also grabbed Master Bai, Shi Haochi, and Ding Fengchun who were standing in the ruins.

“Vice Chairman!” Ding Fengchun shouted. Just then, Su Ping’s strike had pulled him back to reality from his blinding rage. Even though he had come back to his senses, he was still unhappy to hear the Vice Chairman’s decision.

But he received no reply from the Vice Chairman who was talking to an old man standing behind him. “Please keep an eye on this place and lock the flow of information. The conference will be postponed to the afternoon.”

“Okay,” the old man said, casting a glance at Su Ping

The Vice Chairman left without saying another word.

The Fire Lord went after the Vice Chairman.

Master Bai was still standing there, baffled. It never occurred to him that the Vice Chairman would not fly into a rage and capture Su Ping after all the destruction he had caused.

Was it because of Su Ping’s strength?

Master Bai wondered. He decided to face the music.

Master Bai was a bit scared since not even Lone Star was able to defeat him. Worried that Su Ping would hurt people in a fit of rage, Master Bai was afraid to walk too closely to him.

He wouldn’t have been so cautious if he were with other titled battle pet warriors. However, he had to be extra careful at the moment since the young man was a wild one who dared to stir up trouble at their headquarters. No one could foresee what a lunatic would do.
