Young People Shouldn't Be Too Cocky!

Young People Shouldn't Be Too Cocky!

Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings? And seven of them at that?

Any normal person would find Herta's Soul Ring configuration unbelievable upon seeing it. Such a configuration was simply far too powerful!

None of the elders of Sea God Pavilion could have achieved a Soul Ring configuration like Herta's when they were young. Even the current master of Sea God Pavilion still had black Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, while Herta's had all surpassed a hundred thousand years.

Once she reached the rank of Titled Douluo, her Soul Rings would surely become the one-of-a-kind Orange-Gold Soul Rings, just like Yun Ming's!

"Little girl, we never intended to force you or coerce you into anything. We just feel it would be such a shame for a genius like you not to join Shrek Academy!"

Cai Yue'er wore a kindly smile. Her attitude toward a child like Herta was completely different from how she had treated Zhuo Shi earlier. She looked no different from a benevolent old woman.

But Herta knew Cai Yue'er's personality. Cai Yue'er only wanted to leave a good impression because of Herta's talent. If it had been someone else... who knew what sort of person Cai Yue'er would become?

In the original story, this woman had bullied others by throwing her weight around. Yao Lan naturally could not have thought highly of her, and as Yao Lan's clone, Herta understood that as well.

"If you don't intend to force me, why are you blocking my way?" Herta planted her hands on her hips, looking thoroughly arrogant. "And since you know I'm a genius, do you really think you can teach me? You might not even be a match for me."

To be honest, while Herta was quite famous, few people on the continent knew her true identity. She was usually busy with her own work in the laboratory and turned down anything that required going out and interacting with others.

Thus, almost no one on Douluo Continent believed that the twelve-year-old Herta was the person from the rumors... but Shrek Academy knew!

Ever since Wu Zhangkong's letter had arrived at Shrek Academy, all the elders had thought he was joking. There were plenty of geniuses in the world, but no matter how extraordinary they were, how could they possibly be like Herta?

Twelve years old, level seventy Soul Power, every Soul Ring at a hundred thousand years, and a Three-Word Battle Armor Master.

Her secondary professions were unknown, but according to Wu Zhangkong's estimate, they had most likely all exceeded level eight, perhaps even reached level nine! After all, based on Wu Zhangkong's understanding of Herta, fighting above her level was simply routine for her!

Herta's arrogant attitude naturally made Cai Yue'er unhappy. Cai Yue'er had always been hot-tempered, or she would not have been unable to hold herself back and jumped out earlier. Once her temper flared, her anger began to rise.

"A genius? Do you think you're that impressive? How many geniuses has Shrek Academy taught over the years? Which of them hasn't become the pinnacle of their field?"

"Little girl, you need to learn restraint. Young people shouldn't be too cocky, or when someone puts you in your place someday, what will you do then?"

Cai Yue'er was clearly furious as well. Seeing this, Zhuo Shi quickly stepped in to stop her.

"Cai Yue'er, why are you bullying a little girl for no reason?"

"Zhuo Shi, shut up! With her temperament, won't she become completely lawless in the future? She needs to be properly tempered!"

Herta had no interest whatsoever in the argument between the two elders. She merely glanced at Cai Yue'er and said, "You think you can take me down, you old hag?"

"Hah! I can handle a little girl like you with one hand!"

Cai Yue'er naturally did not hold back against Herta. She had already decided to teach this rude little girl a proper lesson and make her understand that in the world of the strong, strength was what mattered!

Even if you were a genius, you still had to keep your head down before you truly grew up. A dragon had to coil, a tiger had to crouch, or else she would teach you a proper lesson right now!

"Is that so? Then let's give it a try!"

After talking to this old hag for so long, Herta had realized something: no matter how much you tried to reason with some people, it was useless. You had to make them suffer before they understood what they should and should not do.

"If you beat me, I'll agree to anything you want. But if you lose... I don't need you to do anything. Just say 'I'm mediocre' three times."

"Little girl, are you looking down on me?" Hearing Herta's casual words, Cai Yue'er immediately widened her eyes, her teeth grinding in rage.

Fighting a twelve-year-old child was already humiliating enough. If she lost, Herta would not even ask her to do anything... this was no longer just an insult. Herta was completely ignoring her!

She, Cai Yue'er, had roamed the continent for so many years. When had she ever suffered such humiliation?

If I don't properly teach this little girl a lesson today, I'll write my name backward!

"If I can't handle you however I please today, I'll acknowledge you as my master!"

The moment those words came out, everyone watching widened their eyes. Zhuo Shi's mouth fell open as well. How could she dare say something like that?

Herta, on the other hand, wore a look of utter disgust.

"Let's not do that, shall we? Taking a disciple like you would be embarrassing..."

"Hahahaha! Cai Yue'er, she doesn't even want to take you as her disciple... Hahaha!" Before Cai Yue'er could speak, Zhuo Shi could no longer hold it in. He had originally intended to watch from the sidelines. Cai Yue'er's declaration had surprised him, but Herta's response was even more explosive!

"You! You little brat! You're going to make me mad!"

Herta's words made the Silver Moon Douluo lose her temper completely, stamping her feet in rage. Still, she did not rush at Herta right away. The other elders of Sea God Pavilion were hiding nearby, and if she struck first, wouldn't they laugh themselves to death?

"Then hurry up and make your move. My mom called me home for dinner, and if I'm late, I'll miss it." Herta's casual words ignited Cai Yue'er's rage once more.

"You little brat, today I'll teach you a proper lesson and let you know that there is always someone stronger and a higher sky beyond the sky!"

"Make your move. I'll give you three moves!"

Cai Yue'er was a Titled Douluo, after all, and possessed the pride of one. She directly offered Herta three moves.

"Since you insist, I won't hold back!" Seeing how utterly oblivious the other party was, Herta had nothing more to say. She would let Cai Yue'er experience the shock of a genius firsthand. "The sooner we finish, the sooner I can eat. I'm starving!"

Hah! This girl really was too young!

I'll let you have three moves first and give you a taste of sweetness. Then I'll show you just how dark the adult world can be!
