"You defeated Zhulong Shan. I don't think he will let you go so easily," Yue Qiqiao said seriously after laughing for some time.
"I know. Let's wait for the Solar Dragon Race to come and look for me." Wang Teng smiled.
"Are you trying to extort money from the Solar Dragon Race?" Yue Qiqiao asked with a strange expression.
"Why not?" Wang Teng asked.
"Well, I was worried you offended them too much. Did you not see the look in Zhulong Shan's eyes just now? He looked like he wanted to devour you," Yue Qiqiao said.
"Don't worry. The Solar Dragon Race doesn't have the ability to devour me," Wang Teng replied indifferently.
Yue Qiqiao saw his confidence and kept quiet.
At this moment, a figure walked over from afar.
"Looking for you?" Yue Qiqiao looked at the person and asked.
Wang Teng turned around and saw the other party. His expression changed slightly. He smiled and asked, "Are you sure you want to challenge me today?"
"Challenge Wang Teng!"
The people around them were shocked when they heard Wang Teng's words. Many of them who were about to leave stopped in their tracks.
Was there another match to watch?
Such thoughts raced through many minds. Soon, a buzz of discussions filled the air.

"Gallup is from a powerful faction in the Golt Territorial Domain. He's also one of the top 10 in the League Of Talents. I heard that he's a physical cultivator with a strong physique."
"Strong physique? Could it be that he saw Wang Teng's fighting style and wanted to challenge him because he knew that Wang Teng's physical body is powerful too?"
"You might not know this, but Gallup was originally the record holder for the freshman who traveled the furthest in the Lightning Valley. Wang Teng overtook him so they agreed yesterday to have a duel today."
"So that's what happened. However, Wang Teng's physical body is so strong that Zhulong Shan even Zhulong Shan can't win him. Will Gallup be able to win him?"
"It's hard to say. Gallup is a lightning-element martial warrior who refines his body using lightning energy. In terms of physical strength, he might be stronger than Zhulong Shan."
"They are from different territorial domains so their systems are different. No one knows who's stronger without a fight."
…
Yue Qiqiao and the others looked at Gallup in surprise. One duel just ended and another one came?
"No, no…" Gallup felt a little awkward. He scratched his head and said, "Erm… I think I should postpone the challenge."
Everyone: …
What happened to the challenge?
He wanted to postpone it!
This fellow was obviously afraid.

"No problem!" Wang Teng was caught between laughter and tears. He didn't expect this fellow to back out after watching his battle with Zhulong Shan.
This fellow was burly and strong so one wouldn't expect him to go back on his words. Wang Teng was surprised.
Nonetheless, it made him regard Gallup in a new light.
Not everyone had the courage to say such words akin to conceding, especially among talents who were particularly sensitive about their reputations.
Wang Teng and the others didn't know that Gallup got frightened because he saw Wang Teng's brutal fighting method.
Otherwise, given his personality, he would have challenged Wang Teng no matter what, especially since he was a physically powerful talented martial warrior.
Well, Wang Teng was unconventional…
Compared to Zhulong Shan, who got thrown around violently, Gallup felt that it wasn't embarrassing to postpone the challenge.
He was full of muscles but he wasn't stupid.
"Alright, I'll look for you when I'm confident enough." Gallup turned around and left. He probably went back to continue his cultivation.
"This fellow is a cultivation maniac!" Wade said.
"People like him are more straightforward." Yue Qiqiao blinked.
"At least more straightforward than Zhulong Shan," Wang Teng chuckled. He felt a hint of regret in his heart. He couldn't get more attribute bubbles from that guy.

"I think I'll wait," Boret chuckled.
"All of you got frightened by him. You're so timid," Yue Qiqiao said with contempt.
"Why don't you do it?" Wade teased.
"I've already lost. I'll find a chance to knock him unconscious in the future," Yue Qiqiao replied.
"Are you sure you want to discuss knocking me unconscious right in front of me?" Wang Teng felt speechless.
The group laughed and boarded the spacecraft, leaving the area where the Freshmen Leaderboard was.
Meanwhile, news of Wang Teng's victory over Zhulong Shan spread. It wasn't just among the new students. Many senior students were aware of it too.
Wang Teng made a name for himself among the freshmen.
From the start, his reputation wasn't low. He was a prodigy who entered the Star Rankings so everyone knew about him, whether they wanted to or not. However, since they didn't witness Wang Teng's ability personally, they had their doubts.
Now that Wang Teng had defeated a genius martial warrior from the Solar Dragon Race, he cemented his reputation.
Even if there were still people who harbored resentment, they didn't dare to underestimate him anymore.
"He defeated a talent from the Solar Dragon Race. This Wang Teng is interesting!" At the academy's arbitration association, Senior Wu De showed a keen interest.
Many senior students shared similar sentiments!
Also, some factions formed by the students in the academy began to take a heightened interest in Wang Teng.
Competition within the academy was fierce. Thus, some like-minded martial warriors would gather together for mutual support, forming factions of various sizes in the academy.
Don't be deceived by the term "academy factions." In reality, they were composed of heaven-stage, universe-stage, and even eternal-stage martial warriors.
