More Talented Than Chu Sheng

Seeing the faint astonishment in Chu Sheng's eyes, Long Liang waved a hand.

"I'm not usually like this. I just got excited."

"Uh, I plan to handle the Sun Family matter myself. I only want you to help deal with Lingyue Academy and buy me some more time."

"How long?"

"Until the National College Entrance Examination is over."

Long Liang froze for a moment.

Until the National College Entrance Examination was over—that was only twenty days or so.

Did that mean that in twenty days, he would no longer need to fear the Sun Family?

Just how weak was this Sun Family...?

"No problem!" Long Liang agreed without hesitation.

After he left.

Before long, news that Chu Sheng had been specially recruited by Dragon Martial Academy spread throughout the school.

The Elite Class students were relatively calm.

They had never been familiar with Chu Sheng to begin with. They only knew he was strong, and every time they saw him, he was busy beating someone up.

First, it had been Qin Feng and his three lackeys.

Then Ye Fan.

Later, they had even heard that Shu Li had been beaten up by him too.

It was a good thing that someone like him had been specially recruited early. At least they would not have to worry about him suddenly getting the urge to beat them up one day.

The most shocked, however, were the students of Class Four.

At first, they had compared Chu Sheng entering the Elite Class to being specially recruited.

Their feelings had already been complicated enough.

Now, he had actually been specially recruited—and by one of Great Xia's most elite academies!

Who the hell were they supposed to reason with over this?

It was not as though they had never heard stories of dark horses rising against all odds, but this was not rising against the odds anymore. This guy was practically taking off.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

In some dark corner of the school, Lin Chuan crawled about like a madman, his face twisted in agony.

He had been playing the pig to eat the tiger for two and a half years, and just when he was about to make a name for himself with one earth-shaking feat, he was beaten like a pig again—in front of so many people.

After the Elite Class Selection Tournament, Lin Chuan had doubled down on his cultivation, hoping that one day he could regain his lost face from Chu Sheng.

Yet he had never expected that now, he could barely even see the other man's taillights.

"What!? Specially recruited by Dragon Martial Academy!?"

Sun Zhanting nearly collapsed when he heard the news.

With Dragon Martial Academy backing him,

could this grudge still be avenged?

Thinking of Sun Ling'er and Sun Qi's miserable state, Sun Zhanting felt as though his heart were bleeding.

Such a blood-deep grudge absolutely had to be avenged!

For that, he was willing to gamble his life!

Yet just as he had made up his mind that, even if Dragon Martial Academy held him accountable afterward, he would still kill Chu Sheng.

Long Liang had already flown above the Sun Family estate.

His voice boomed like thunder.

"I won't waste words. If Chu Sheng loses even a single hair before the National College Entrance Examination, none of your family will have a good end. Remember—it means the whole family!"

"I've already transferred your entire family's files from Wind Chasing Hall. When the time comes, not a single one of you will escape."

Then, Long Liang's aura suddenly surged, carrying a suffocating pressure that made hearts tremble.

"What I've said does not represent Dragon Martial Academy."

"It represents the Long Family of Dongyun Province!"

Once his words fell, Long Liang flew away, and the terrifying pressure vanished.

The ordinary Sun Family members without cultivation instantly collapsed to the ground.

Their entire bodies were drenched in sweat.

Sun Zhanting was forced to put away his thoughts of revenge as well.

Dragon Martial Academy might be reasonable, but the Long Family behind it would not be.

For such a colossal existence to deal with a mere Sun Family would be as easy as turning over a hand.

They would not even need to act personally. They only had to let slip a few words, and countless people below would scramble to do the job for them!

There was not much time left until the National College Entrance Examination anyway. He could act afterward.

What puzzled him, however, was why the Long Family would protect Chu Sheng for only this long if they truly wanted to protect him.

Could it be that after the National College Entrance Examination, Chu Sheng would have the means to protect himself?

He would really have to see when the time came.

Sun Zhanting's expression became increasingly savage...

In the courtyard, an eight-year-old child sniffed and curled his lips.

"Is the Long Family that awesome?"

His father instantly slapped him.

"Is your brain full of shit? Tell me, what was the surname of the first president of our Great Xia Federation!?"

The child frowned.

"Chu!?"

If you think this book is good and want to avoid losing it next time, remember to add it to your bookshelf.

His father slapped him again.

"Chu my ass! It was Long!"

"Let me ask you again—what was the surname of the second president?"

The child's brows immediately relaxed.

"I know this one. Baili..."

A trace of relief had just appeared on his father's face.

When the child continued,

"The same surname as Baili Shouyue. A hundred miles through the long night, one promise guarded for all eternity. You slapped me twice today, so I should get to play Honor of Kings for two hours, right?"

His father smacked his forehead and howled at the sky.

"Ma Yun, fuck your ancestors for eight generations."

The young man beside him reminded him, "Fourth Uncle, you're crying at the wrong grave. That was Ma Huateng..."

Night came quickly.

The Lingyue Academy group finally arrived at Baian City.

Without even a moment to rest.

The three of them first went to Wind Chasing Hall to retrieve Chu Sheng's detailed information.

The killing of a student from a first-rate academy was a major case.

Wind Chasing Hall did not dare refuse to cooperate.

Once they learned Chu Sheng's exact address, the three immediately rushed over.

Chu Sheng lived in nothing more than government resettlement housing.

The neighborhood was crammed full of people—poor people.

The three came rushing in with great fanfare, so naturally the commotion was not small.

Someone recognized the emblem on their chests.

"They're from Lingyue Academy. We have a Lingyue Academy student living here?"

"No way. That's a first-rate academy. For people living here, getting into a third-rate academy would already be stepping in dog shit luck."

"Didn't I hear that someone named Chu Sheng in our building was specially recruited?"

"What bullshit. That brat was my middle school classmate. How could I not know him? If he could get specially recruited, I'd eat rocks."

Wang Lian and the other two arrived outside Chu Sheng's room.

The door was open, and a middle-aged man sat inside.

"Who are you!? Where's Chu Sheng?"

The files had not mentioned Chu Sheng having any relatives.

"Dragon Martial Academy, Long Liang. The Chu Sheng you're looking for has already been specially recruited by our academy."

The three instantly changed expressions upon hearing that.

Dragon Martial Academy's reputation was deafening. It was a top-tier academy an entire level above their Lingyue Academy!

Wang Lian hesitated for a moment, then gathered her courage.

"Even if he is your student, that does not change the fact that he killed someone. We need to take him back for investigation."

Long Liang nodded.

"That's fair enough, but if I ask you for evidence, wouldn't you be screwed?"

There were no surveillance cameras in the Earth Abyss.

No witnesses, no physical evidence, and they still wanted to arrest someone?

Not a chance!

"Get lost. A ninth level who couldn't even beat a fifth level—trash like that staying alive only wastes spirit rice. And you still have the nerve to come arrest someone?"

Wang Lian glanced at the other two, only to see both of them shake their heads.

The meaning was obvious.

They could not afford to provoke Dragon Martial Academy.

They would not be taking this person back today.

The moment she walked out of the residential complex, Wang Lian suddenly realized something.

"No, Chu Sheng is only at the fifth level of Meridian Opening. Why would Dragon Martial Academy come specially recruit him!?"

"Could that man just now have been a fraud?"

Yet at that very moment.

Boom—

A muffled thunderclap suddenly exploded in the heavens.

The clouds over the western part of the city churned violently, purple lightning tearing apart the firmament.

Dazzling lightning poured down like a waterfall!

Long Liang stood there with his mouth wide open.

"Could that brat have caused this?"

When Chu Sheng had left the school at noon, he had said he was going to the Earth Abyss in the west of the city for special training.

The special recruitment personnel from the top academies who had remained in the area instantly became wildly excited upon seeing this heaven-shaking phenomenon.

"This looks like someone awakened a talent! Such a huge disturbance has to be at least A-rank! It might even be S-rank!"

"A talent warrior with an A-rank starting point—wouldn't that make them even more gifted than Chu Sheng?"

"This is truly light at the end of the tunnel! Quick, quick, quick—let's see which family's genius it is."

If you can't find it by searching the book title, try searching the author instead. It may have simply been renamed!
