Chapter 980: It’s All Luck, It Has Nothing To Do With Me

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There would always be staff members in the Secondary Career Alliance who would have access to the a.s.sessment records. If someone really probed into this, they would be able to get some information.

News spread naturally.

However, there were not many who had seen w.a.n.g Teng’s face. Besides a group of grandmaster examiners, Fan Taining, and the others, no one knew he was the one with three grandmaster t.i.tles.

w.a.n.g Teng had also specifically told the grandmasters not to reveal his ident.i.ty for the time being.

The grandmasters were glad to fulfill a small request from him. That was why w.a.n.g Teng’s name and appearance were kept secret by the Secondary Career Alliance and not leaked to the public.

The Secondary Career Alliance could still guarantee something like that.

However, the news of someone with three grandmaster t.i.tles spread like wildfire across the streets in Great Qian City. There were even various versions of it being circulated around.

For now, w.a.n.g Teng didn’t know about that. He was busy completing the registration for the Secondary Career Alliance. The process was simple, but it required him to sign a contract.

The contents of the contract were simple as well. There were no mandatory terms. There were only occasional exchange events where he would need to show up, and there were even various rewards and benefits for him.

w.a.n.g Teng wanted them to give him more such opportunities.

Besides that, joining the Secondary Career Alliance would also mean that he could have their protection. The combat power of an individual member was not high, and they were basically at a disadvantage when fighting martial warriors. That was why the Secondary Career Alliance was formed as a defense mechanism.

The higher the level, the more valuable one was. Naturally, they would be better protected.

Someone with three grandmaster t.i.tles like w.a.n.g Teng was treated like a treasure by the alliance and was highly regarded.

w.a.n.g Teng finally heaved a sigh of relief after completing the grandmaster a.s.sessments and joining the Secondary Career Alliance. Now, he had someone backing him.

From Earth to the outer universe, he went from being a n.o.body from an undeveloped planet to someone who had three grandmaster t.i.tles in the Great Qian Empire. Such a change of status was a big deal.

An ordinary person would never have been able to achieve this in his lifetime.

The Cao family wanted to oppress him with power. He would like to see who was afraid of who.

After handling all the matters, the grandmasters were happy for him. Grandmaster Alfred knew some things about w.a.n.g Teng and said, “Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, joining the Secondary Career Alliance has no other benefits, but we s.h.i.+eld our members. I heard about your troubles from Fan Taining. Since you have now joined the alliance, if there is anything that can’t be solved, you can report it to the alliance directly.”

“Has Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng encountered any trouble?”

The other grandmasters didn’t know about his affairs and asked.

w.a.n.g Teng didn’t hide anything and explained briefly. Since they already knew who he was, they would know about it with a little investigation. He couldn’t hide it anyway.

After all, there was a lot of trouble in the n.o.ble Family Consultation Chamber that day when he struck the bell.

“So that was it.”

Everyone was a little surprised.

“If you need any help, you can find me. I have some connections,” Grandmaster Hua Yuan offered immediately.

“That’s right, that’s right. Old fellows like us have been in the business for half of our lifetimes. We would have some connections,” Grandmaster Mo De continued.

All the grandmasters expressed their willingness to help. They wanted to have a good relations.h.i.+p with someone who had three grandmaster t.i.tles. They wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

They weren’t afraid of the Cao family.

As for the Parkers family, with so many of them working together, they wouldn’t be in too much danger even though they weren’t as powerful.

On the contrary, if the Parkers offended so many grandmasters of the Secondary Career Alliance, they would be the ones in trouble.

That was why the grandmasters didn’t have many concerns.

w.a.n.g Teng was surprised by their reactions, but he didn’t reject them. He nodded and smiled. “Many thanks, fellow grandmasters!”

“You are welcome!”

“Hahaha, Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng is too polite!”

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, no need to be polite. We’ll interact more in the future!”

…

The grandmasters were quite glad. If w.a.n.g Teng rejected them, they wouldn’t be feeling like this.

Favors were inevitable and were bound to be exchanged. Helping w.a.n.g Teng would mean that he would lend a hand in the future. Offering help in times of trouble was better than the icing on a cake.

w.a.n.g Teng had amazing potential, already holding three grandmaster t.i.tles at such a young age. Even seniors like them who had spent their lifetimes in their fields would have to admire him.

They wanted to develop a closer relations.h.i.+p with him.

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, where do you live? Do you need us to prepare a safe place for you?” Grandmaster Hua Yuan asked pa.s.sionately.

“I’m staying with Master Fan Taining in Great Qian City for the time being. It isn’t that dangerous,” w.a.n.g Teng replied.

The grandmasters glanced at Fan Taining and remembered that he was the one that brought w.a.n.g Teng here.

“You did well this time.” Alfred patted Fan Taining’s shoulder and chuckled.

“Hahaha, Grandmaster Alfred, your disciple gave us a great gift.” Grandmaster Hua Yuan smiled.

“It’s what I should do.”

Seeing that everyone had finally remembered him, Fan Taining almost burst into tears and sucked up to them.

He had to. He was surrounded by grandmasters, and as a mere runemaster, he was not in a position to speak. It was all thanks to Master w.a.n.g Teng—no, Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng that they remembered his name.

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, do you need another place to stay? Fan Taining’s place might be too small for you.” Alfred asked and revealed his hand, “My place is big enough and more comfortable. We can have a good chat when we are free.”

Fan Taining felt as though his heart had been pierced by an arrow as he looked at Grandmaster Alfred with resentment.

Master, aren’t you a bit too shameless to take him away from me?

However, he didn’t dare to say it out loud. Otherwise, he would be criticized. He might even be expelled by his master.

Given his understanding of Alfred, it was something that his master could definitely do.

w.a.n.g Teng was speechless. He realized that this old man was quite evil. He wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h him away from his disciple and liked to have a good chat with people just like Fan Taining.

However, he couldn’t go.

Grandmasters were not that easy to deal with. He would be annoyed to death.

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, how about my place? My house is not only big but there are also many materials for alchemy. We can talk about alchemy.” Grandmaster Hua Yuan didn’t want to be alone and invited w.a.n.g Teng.

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, you can come to my house. My smithery studio is large enough and I gained some insight on the Lightning Slap. Why not we talk about that instead?” Grandmaster Mo De suggested.

“Let’s go to my house.”

“Go away, go to my house.”

…

“???” w.a.n.g Teng’s head started to ache as the grandmasters argued.

Why do these people like to talk so much?

I’ll just escape! I can’t do this!

“Grandmasters, I’ll just stay with Master Fan Taining for a few days. You don’t have to worry about me,” w.a.n.g Teng said quickly.

They felt helpless, but they couldn’t force him.

Fan Taining was moved. Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng rejected the invitations from the grandmasters because of him. It was too touching.

Alfred glared at Fan Taining fiercely.

Darned disciple. It’s all your fault!

Fan Taining: (⊙_⊙)?

Over at the side, Master Blacksmith Hobson and Dr. Leonardo envied and sympathized with him. It probably didn’t feel good to be on a grandmaster’s bad side.

“By the way, Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, was the green flame that you were using a divine flame?” Grandmaster Hua Yuan suddenly asked.

The grandmaster alchemists, Grandmaster Mo De, and the others looked at w.a.n.g Teng instantly. Although they had already had a hunch, they couldn’t contain their curiosity.

Grandmaster Alfred and the others were taken aback. “What divine flame?”

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng used a green flame while refining the dan. We guessed that it should be a divine flame,” Grandmaster Hua Yuan replied.

“He used it during smithing as well,” Grandmaster Mo De commented.

“That’s right. It’s a divine flame. It’s called the Emerald Glazed Flame.” w.a.n.g Teng nodded.

“Emerald Glazed Flame!”

The grandmasters muttered its name and exclaimed, “It’s indeed a divine flame. Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng is really fortunate!”

“I was just lucky!” w.a.n.g Teng smiled.

“Wait, Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, don’t you have Holy Flame?” Fan Taining asked in surprise.

“Holy Flame?!”

Everyone was astounded.

What is happening? Why is there a Holy Flame?

“Oh, I didn’t say that I only have one flame.”

There was a strange silence.

“Grandmaster w.a.n.g Teng, you have two divine flames?” Grandmaster Hua Yuan asked quietly.

“Ah, yes. I accidentally obtained two kinds of flames.” w.a.n.g Teng nodded.

“Haha, what a good accident.”

Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others felt pain in their hearts. They almost cried from envy.

“Two divine flames! What kind of luck is that?” Everyone didn’t know what else to say. They were embarra.s.sed of their grandmaster t.i.tles.

“Cough. Don’t be like this. It’s all luck, it has nothing to do with me.” w.a.n.g Teng coughed awkwardly.

Silence.

Things would have been better if he had kept quiet. The few grandmasters were exasperated.

“Well, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back with Master Fan Taining first,” w.a.n.g Teng said quickly.

“Go on, go.” Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others waved their hands weakly. If they let w.a.n.g Teng stay, they would start doubting their lives.

“I’ll refine the remaining Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill when I have the time. But in order to ensure that everyone is able to get one, I might require some more materials.” w.a.n.g Teng said.

“I’ll order someone to collect them immediately.” Grandmaster Hua Yuan rea.s.sured him.

“Let me know when it’s done,” w.a.n.g Teng said.

“Then we shall wait.”

The grandmasters’ eyes lit up, and they became happy again.

w.a.n.g Teng nodded with a smile. He could deal with the grandmasters with just one Nine Essence Soul Congealing Pill. It wasn’t a bad deal at all.

“I’ll go with you,” Grandmaster Alfred said.

Afterward, they left the Secondary Career Alliance and headed to Master Fan Taining’s place.
