Chapter 27: Tempering

  ♂?,,

  "Boom!"

  In a room filled with ancient elegance, a sudden loud noise came, and a desk made entirely of thousand-year-old smoked wood carvings was smashed to powder.

  "What was that? Say it again!"

  The middle-aged man in front of the desk was furious, his whole body filled with a terrifying aura, as if a lion had fallen into a violent rage.

  In front of him, a man who looked like a guard stammered and replied with a trembling tone: "Master, young master... he was killed in a duel at the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy... He died on the dueling field..."

  "Who is it! Who is it!"

  A middle-aged man growled low in his throat, and the aura emanating from his entire body had transformed into an ominous and terrifying atmosphere that seemed to herald a storm, pressing down on the guard standing before him, who was only a high-ranking swordsman, almost to the point of suffocation.

  "It is Wang Ting, a person named Wang Ting, he is from the royal family of Bishui City."

  Jade Water City?

  Upon hearing this name, the middle-aged man's eyes, which had been blazing with fury, diminished slightly in their intensity. A hint of calmness appeared amidst his enraged pupils: "The Bishui City dominated by the Xifeng family?"

  "Yes, however, sir, I have investigated clearly, this young man and the Xi Feng family's relationship is just ordinary, they don't have a deep connection. Moreover, that Wang family in Bi Shui City isn't a big clan either, although they have some assets and have some connections with the royal Wang family of Da Xia country, but it's only some basic business dealings. Their entire family of over 100 people doesn't have a single noble title."

  "Daxia country? The first powerful country among the 16 countries of ASEAN, Daxia country!?"

  When he heard the name, the middle-aged man's heart was furious, but he forced himself to calm down. His current identity is not only a qualified father, but also the head of a family. The livelihood of more than 600 people in the whole family almost depends on him, and he has to be careful in his actions.

  " Investigate! I want you to investigate! A small royal family, a royal family that doesn't even have any nobles, absolutely does not have the guts to lay hands on a direct member of the Gongsun family. Investigate and find out the truth behind this matter. If I find out that someone is behind this..."

  As he spoke, a terrifying aura rose from the middle-aged Viscount Gong Sun Fang Yu, an icy killing intent that seemed to pierce bones like a steel knife, making the high-ranking swordsman kneeling in front of him tremble with fear.

  "Yes, sir."

  The high-ranking swordsman hastily responded and was about to retreat.

  "Wait a minute."

  Gongsun Fangyu's expression turned cold, and after a moment, he made another decision: "This matter absolutely cannot be let go of. Whoever dares to kill my son, I will not only make the mastermind behind the scenes pay the price, but also everyone who is involved in this matter will not have a good time! Hu Yi, personally take care of it, break that little bastard's four limbs for me, at least three months cannot be restored. Of course, do not kill him, he still has to duel with Li Mu. The face of the Haino Earl, I still want to give it, and I also want to keep him, pull out the big fish behind him! Our Gongsun family in Tai Xuan country, although we are not the top-notch family, but absolutely cannot be insulted by any stray dog!"

  "Yes!"

  Hui Yi responded with a "yes" and hastily retreated with respect.

  Just now, Gong Sun Fang Yu's thunderous rage had already frightened him into a cold sweat all over his body. Although Gong Sun Fang Yu was only a great swordsman, and even a barely promoted great swordsman, he had been in charge of the city's construction for many years, holding the title of Viscount, and had nearly a hundred door guests and three hundred guards under him. Such a powerful noble with high status and heavy power would not be underestimated by even those who had advanced to the rank of Sword Dao Master when he was angry.

  ……

  "Wang Ting, is this about leaving the academy?"

  In the dormitory, Su Ke looked at Wang Ting who was doing some simple cleaning and asked with a complex expression.

  At this moment, the result of Wang Ting and Gong Sun's duel has been spread out. As a high-ranking warrior, Wang Ting made a big upset, not only defeating the mid-ranking swordsman Gong Sun, but also killing him with one blow, staging a shocking reversal that left all students who had heard about this battle stunned.

  Even some of the gambling house owners who opened small betting pools for this duel lost so badly that they cried bitterly.

  In the afternoon, the name Wang Ting had almost echoed throughout the entire Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy. At least one-fifth of the students had remembered the name Wang Ting in their hearts. As Wang Ting's roommate, Su Ke was naturally not unaware of this matter.

  "Go out and gain experience."

  Wang Ting responded.

  "Are you experienced?"

  Su Ke glanced at Wang Ting, nodded slightly: "It's good to avoid the storm outside, besides, three months later, I still have to duel with Li Mu. If I don't advance to a formal swordsman, it will be very dangerous. To say that, I shouldn't have killed Gong Sun Suo, otherwise, with my current cultivation and potential, I don't know how many organizations and forces would come out to offer an olive branch, especially some mercenary organizations, their treatment is extremely generous, once joined them, even if using spare time outside of class to take on tasks, every year can earn hundreds of gold coins more, this is absolutely a huge sum of money."

  By now, he was already unsure whether he should admire or envy Wang Ting.

  Wang Ting didn't notice Su Ke standing beside him.

  Why kill Gong Sun Zan?

  Is it because he's a noble? Is it because killing him would cause big trouble? Not even fighting back when being bullied by him?

  To endure humiliation and bear heavy responsibility?

  He glanced at the dormitory, he was going to temper himself, not to travel. Many unnecessary things didn't need to be brought. In that deep mountain and wild ridge, once encountering danger or ferocious beasts, bringing more things would only be a burden.

  "Let it be."

  Wang Ting nodded and walked out of the dormitory under Su Ke's somewhat regretful gaze.

  Outside the dormitory, several students were chatting casually, but when they saw Wang Ting come out, each of them showed a respectful expression.

  Gongsun's level was too high for those present, including the mid-tier and high-tier warriors. They couldn't feel the pressure brought by that level at all. However, Wang Ting defeating a mid-tier swordsman was absolutely true. For such a strong person, even if they were of similar age, there was still a kind of fear in their hearts.

  Wang Ting left the dormitory area and walked directly towards the outside of the college.

  After a while, he did think of going to tell Xi Ruojian about it.

  But thinking of her expression when she found out about killing Gong Sun Zan, a somewhat reproachful and dissatisfied look, he silently chuckled to himself and dismissed the idea.

  Xi Zuo Jian is also a nobleman.

  "Wang Ting."

  In a split second, a somewhat nervous and excited voice suddenly came from not far away, followed by Qin Qing quickly running over from the side.

  Seeing Wang Ting's outfit, she hesitated: "Wang Ting, is this going to..."

  "Tempering."

  "Oh."

  Qin Qing also had the same idea as Su Ke, thinking that he was going out to avoid trouble, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's always good to go out and gain some experience..." As she said this, she suddenly felt like she didn't know what else to say...

  "Train diligently and you will soon reach the pinnacle of high-ranking cultivation. Break through and become a formal swordsman as soon as possible."

  Wang Tingdao nodded.

  "Uh-huh, I will."

  Wang Ting nodded and didn't say much, directly turning around and walking towards the outside of the college.

  Watching Wang Ting gradually move away from her, getting farther and farther away, about to disappear into the crowd, at this moment, Qin Qing suddenly felt a kind of inexplicable loneliness, a kind of icy strangeness.

  This loneliness, this strangeness, was due to her own self, and also because of Wang Ting.

  Such a young man, with the most astonishing talent, under the name of the first genius in Bishui City, entered the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy, and like a brilliant meteor, he defeated the mid-level swordsman Gong Sunsu with his extraordinary swordsmanship, emitting the most dazzling light. However, this brilliance, this glory, was due to various cruel realities, because of the rise of imperial power, the rule of the nobility, not one person had the qualifications, ability, or courage to step forward and share it with him.

  Even if he is dazzling at this moment, showing the potential of a peerless swordsman, he is still alone, isolated from the world, and solitary in his admiration...
