Complete Martial Arts Attributes Chapter 1437

1437 A Chance Encounter! A Gathering of Geniuses! (1)

An ordinary cosmos-rank s.p.a.cecraft was speeding through the dark Universe.

That was w.a.n.g Teng’s s.p.a.cecraft. They were close to the Battle Planet, so they switched the Flaming River to ride a normal s.h.i.+p.

“One more hour till we reach our destination,” Round Ball said to the young man.

“Okay.” w.a.n.g Teng nodded, resting with closed eyes at the moment.

!!

“Huh? There’s a s.p.a.cecraft from the Great Qian Empire up front,” the little helper said.

s.p.a.cecrafts would usually require registration to operate; their information would be relayed when two s.h.i.+ps met.

This was done to prevent unnecessary conflict.

The universe was dangerous. Misunderstandings leading to a battle could happen at times.

w.a.n.g Teng didn’t bother with such matters, knowing that Round Ball would take care of it.

The latter didn’t care about the other s.p.a.cecraft, either. They were near the Battle Planet; it was normal to run into other s.h.i.+ps from the Great Qian Planet. After all, many people would definitely make the trip to attend the compet.i.tion. They had already met a few other s.h.i.+ps along the way.

However, just when the little helper was about to swipe away the notification—the other s.h.i.+p sent them a call request.

“w.a.n.g Teng, they are trying to call in. Do you want to pick it up?” Round Ball was curious about who the other party was.

w.a.n.g Teng frowned, gradually opening his eyes. “Answer it.”

“All right.” The other nodded and answered the call.

A hologram appeared. It was a young lady covered with a veil.

“Baron w.a.n.g Teng, I was right!” The lady smiled when she saw the young man.

w.a.n.g Teng was stunned for a moment upon seeing the slightly familiar figure. It took him a while to remember who she was. “Situ Wan’er!”

That young lady was Duke Situ’s daughter, Situ Wan’er.

“How did you know it was me?” The young hero asked curiously.

“You bought the s.h.i.+p through the military’s special channel, and registered it on Defense Planet No. 29. I guessed it was you.” Situ Wan’er sounded proud of herself, even though her voice remained cold.

w.a.n.g Teng was enlightened. He had indeed bought a few s.h.i.+ps from the military to save money in the past.

The lady was smart. She managed to guess his ident.i.ty through those clues.

Of course, she was lucky too.

“Are you heading to the Battle Planet?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.

“Yes.” She nodded while sizing him up. It was their first time meeting ever since they parted.

However, she had heard many stories of his exploits, especially his merits on the defense planet, and the fact that he actually received the planet itself. There was a huge commotion among the higher authorities in the empire when they heard about this.

w.a.n.g Teng held a banquet and invited the n.o.bles when he became a baron. However, it was disrupted by the Parkers.

Many people treated him as a joke back then, feeling that the new baron had no future, since he had provoked that powerful family.

However, half a year later, the same baron became even more famous and received the National Military Medal.

The award represented the highest glory in the military. Receiving the medal meant that the military would become his backing. No matter how powerful the Parkers were, they couldn’t interfere in military affairs.

Many people were astounded.

They thought that w.a.n.g Teng would become an outcast after he left, but he opened a new path and a brighter future for himself.

That was the main reason why the veiled lady took the initiative to contact him in the likelihood that the s.h.i.+p was really his.

Based on her personality, she wouldn’t take the initiative to contact anyone, even if she knew them.

“You’re going to watch? Or partic.i.p.ate?” w.a.n.g Teng asked curiously.

“Partic.i.p.ate!” Situ Wan’er replied.

w.a.n.g Teng was surprised. He didn’t expect the duke’s daughter to enter the compet.i.tion.

However, she was probably strong, being the daughter of a universe stage warrior.

“The League of Talents is a grand affair. I wouldn’t miss the chance if I can take part in it,” Situ Wan’er added.

The young man nodded. Many people probably thought along those lines. He wondered how strong she was.

It was now his turn to size her up. However, she was just a hologram; he couldn’t see what stage she was in.

He could use his Real Eye to see through the void and the s.p.a.cecraft itself, but there was no need for it. She wasn’t an enemy.

Besides, there was no point. They were all at the celestial stage, and he couldn’t see her real battle power.

That is, unless she had multiple elements like him!

He could see that.

But, everyone’s battle techniques and secret skills were different, making it hard to predict a warrior’s strength just based on Force.

He would delve further into the matter if he met her during the compet.i.tion.

“You came to partic.i.p.ate too, right?” Situ Wan’er asked.

“Yes,” w.a.n.g Teng replied.

“Why don’t we go together?” Situ Wan’er asked.

“Sure.” w.a.n.g Teng didn’t reject her. Having a companion was better than traveling alone.

Only one hour of travel remained, so he didn’t want to cultivate. So, he started chatting with the lady.

Being a duke’s daughter, Situ Wan’er had a vast knowledge and the topics they touched upon were varied. w.a.n.g Teng was lucky he had Round Ball, or he would have been hard pressed to catch up.
