Chapter 63: Chapter 63 Luo Chen
Shi Hao made two demands, first, Chu Fei must cooperate with Lin Yuyue to help Rejuvenate Hall breach the market in County Town, second, arrange imdiately to send him and another contestant to the Imperial Capital.
He certainly couldn’t forget about this matter even in the midst of busyness.
As for Shi Hao’s matters, Chu Fei of course placed them at the top priority.
Thus, he imdiately ordered that the Dean of Seven Seas Academy, Gu Dong, personally lead the team, taking Shi Hao and another young man nad Liu Shuhe into the Imperial Capital.
Of course, the fatty was definitely going along.
At their departure, Lin Yuyue and Bai Hua both ca specially to see off Shi Hao, and although Chu Fei had many matters to handle, he still made ti to co.
Lin Yuyue looked at Shi Hao and couldn’t help shaking her head; indeed, wherever Shi Hao went, he was bound to stir up trouble and chaos.
She couldn’t help but urge, “The Imperial Capital is not like other places. It’s full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. You’d better keep a low profile there.”
“Alright,” Shi Hao agreed readily, “as long as no one provokes , I’m too lazy to bully others.”
This… is going to be difficult!
Lin Yuyue did not persuade further, as Shi Hao was no fool.
Chu Fei watched this and couldn’t help but murmur, wondering why Shi Hao wanted him to look after Lin Yuyue. It turned out the two had that kind of relationship.
He originally had so slight thoughts towards Lin Yuyue, but now, of course, he dismissed them completely.
Competing with Shi Hao over a woman?
Wasn’t that seeking death?
He secretly reminded himself, he must vigorously help Lin Yuyue promote her dicines when he returned. Hmm, how about closing all other pharmacies and letting only Lin Yuyue operate?
—If Shi Hao knew about it, he would certainly be very baffled, huh, I just wanted you to look after things a bit, just to earn so extra money.
“Dad, rember to bring back gifts!” Bai Hua waved her hand, this girl was too carefree.
Lin Yuyue and Chu Fei watched as the horse carriage carrying Shi Hao and three others gradually drifted away.
This journey to the Imperial Capital was very long; it would take about twenty days.
For Shi Hao, this seed just right.
His current strength was not yet sufficient to contend with a high-level martial master, but this period of ti was just perfect for him to cultivate and boost his power.
Days passed, and Shi Hao maintained a pace of increasing his strength by a thousand pounds daily; the fatty couldn’t keep up, but he truly might have a Tyrant Body, maintaining a rapid growth of five hundred pounds daily.
As the carriage swayed, by the ti they arrived at the Imperial Capital, Shi Hao’s strength had also increased to 116,000 pounds; the fatty also achieved over 40,000 pounds of strength, successfully breaking into Marshall Sect territory.
He also possessed forceful energy, which led him to incessantly show off in front of Liu Shuhe, much to his delight.
This left Gu Dong and Liu Shuhe speechless but utterly astonished, as yet another young martial master erged!
Shi Hao asked them not to publicize it, for now, he still wanted to keep a low profile.
The four entered the Imperial Capital and temporarily settled within the Imperial Capital Academy, waiting for the martial competition to begin.
Financially well-endowed, Shi Hao began looking for places to practice cultivation anew, aiming to establish formations to accelerate his training.
He quickly found a place, set up a three-star Spirit Gathering Array, and with that, by tomorrow, he would recover to an enhancent of 2,000 pounds of strength daily.
Keep it low, keep it low, Shi Hao told himself; he was waiting to break into the ranks of high-level martial masters, then go to the Shi Family, and seek justice for his foster father.
As for Luo Chen?
Heh, now in his view, he was just a minor character, easily dealt with, not worth worrying about.
…
Houde Restaurant.
In a private room on the third floor, four young n were dining, all students of the Imperial Capital Academy.
“It seems the martial arts competition is starting soon,” said a youth clad in purple, nad Hou Taihua.
“Yes, I wonder if there will be any noteworthy newcors this year,” added a youth in green, nad Zhang Binbai.
“No matter what, it’s impossible to have another genius like Young Master Luo,” Kong Yangzhou, dressed in brocade, laughed.
“That’s true. Young Master Luo made a remarkable debut in last year’s competition, not only did he get into the Imperial Capital Academy, but he was also taken as a disciple by Sect Master Duan. In just one year, he has already beco a Primary Level martial master!” Zhang Binbai also praised.
“To advance from a Primary Level martial disciple to a Primary Level martial master in one year, Young Master Luo’s martial arts talent is truly astonishing!” Hou Taihua, not to be outdone, also praised.
Luo Chen then revealed a restrained yet proud smile. “That is my master’s accomplishnt, I am rely diligent,” he said.
“Hey, if Young Master Luo didn’t have extraordinary talent, why would Sect Master Duan take him as a disciple?” Hou Taihua waved his hand. “Young Master Luo, don’t be modest.”
“Exactly, exactly, Young Master Luo, you’re too modest, and extre humility amounts to pride, you must penalize yourself with three drinks!” Zhang Binbai chid in, egging him on.
Luo Chen smiled. Although these three were from minor noble families of the Imperial Capital and would have ignored him, an outsider, in the past, now that he had beco the eleventh disciple of Duan Jinghong, even the direct descendants of top noble families had to greet him warmly.
All this was because Duan Jinghong was a Martial Venerable!
What is a Martial Venerable?
A being who surpasses a Martial Sect, standing at the pinnacle of martial arts, is worthy of reverence!
“By the way, I heard sothing very strange, did you know?” Hou Taihua spoke.
“Oh, what strange thing?” asked Zhang Binbai.
“Last year, a person nad Shi Hao entered the competition at fifteen, and he’s competing again this year!” Hou Taihua said leisurely.
“Eh!” This surprised both Zhang Binbai and Kong Yangzhou.
Luo Chen’s eyes suddenly tightened, his actions involuntarily pausing.
“Ha, he was only fifteen last year, and he is representing his academy again this year? How talent-starved must that academy be!” Zhang Binbai laughed heartily.
“Eh, that na sounds oddly familiar, I think I’ve heard it sowhere.” Kong Yangzhou appeared thoughtful.
Although Shi Hao was the runner-up last year, in the Martial Arts Realm, only the first place is rembered, especially after a whole year, the runner-up is long forgotten.
“That was my opponent in last year’s finals,” Luo Chen suddenly said.
Eh, that’s right!
The three n all turned towards Luo Chen. Having spent so much ti with him, they had co to understand his nature—extrely cruel and petty.
If he still rembered Shi Hao, that ant…
“Brother Kong, why don’t we et this Shi Hao and teach him a lesson?” Zhang Binbai suggested imdiately.
“Sure!” Kong Yangzhou laughed. “I want to see what’s so special about this youth that he can represent his academy two years in a row.”
“Let’s go, let’s go,” Hou Taihua said, standing up first.
“Young Master Luo, please wait, we will be back shortly,” said the three n.
Luo Chen nodded reservedly. What was his status now?
The disciple of a Martial Venerable. How could he possibly go against a defeated rival, although he knew how he had won.
Watching the three of them leave, Luo Chen smirked coldly: “I clearly crippled you, instead of living quietly the rest of your life, you dare co to the Imperial Capital? Hmph, seeking death!”
