"How could this be? Even Lord Shui Daiyi and Lord Grass Shadow treated him with such courtesy?"
Gong Lizi was completely dumbfounded!
In her understanding, Yang Ming was very talented and had caught Lord Grass Shadow's eye, allowing him to enter the ninja academy as an exception.
But that was all!
There were many geniuses in the ninja academy whom Lord Grass Shadow had taken notice of. It was nothing special, at most an acknowledgment of one's talent.
It was merely an opportunity. Whether one could seize it depended on oneself.
But now, it seemed things were not that simple!
Especially Shui Daiyi's final words—they had effectively placed Yang Ming on equal footing with the Grass Shadow!
Discuss!
For someone like the Grass Shadow, anyone worthy of the word "discuss" had to at least be his equal!
Could I have been wrong from the very beginning? Does Yuexia Ming already possess strength comparable to Lord Grass Shadow's?
Suddenly, a thought so absurd that even she found it ridiculous surfaced in her mind!
She did not want to believe it, but at this moment, she had no choice but to!
By then, Yang Ming had already followed Shui Daiyi to the Grass Shadow's office!
Chong Chunyi was unexpectedly there as well, along with Takenaka Shun, Yonekura Taku, and several other higher-ups who had appeared at the ninja academy's anniversary ceremony.
Everyone had gathered in one room. It seemed something major had happened!
"What's going on?"
Seeing this, Yang Ming could not help asking.
"Lord Yuexia, it's like this!"
Takenaka Shun glanced around at everyone. After receiving a signal, he stood up and began to explain.
"Does Lord Yuexia still remember Mizunoki?"
"Mizunoki? Your enemy?"
Yang Ming looked at Chong Chunyi.
"That's right, him!"
Chong Chunyi nodded with a bitter smile.
