33 A 'tiny' revenge
Check out my new novel -> "Strongest Monarch In The Apocalypse Academy".
*******
On the podium where Sect Master and Elders were observing the final exam.
Rong Yuan, who was among them, was particularly paying attention to three figures: Zhou Wei (14 y.o. – 9th level Spirit Body Stage), Feng Hua (14 y.o. – 10th level Spirit Body Stage), and finally Huan (13 y.o. – 8th level Spirit Body Stage).
He would look at the Ranking List from time to time to check their rankings.
As he guessed Feng Hua was already in the top 5, so he lost hope in him, because he already passed the exam, even brilliantly in his eyes.
Yuan was sure Feng Hua's rank wouldn't change any more.
"Feng Hua, a good one."
"Hoh, Yuan! Did my nephew catch your interest?"
Suddenly someone questioned Rong Yuan after Yuan commented on Feng Hua.
"Huh? That boy, Feng Hua is your nephew, Sect Master?"
"Hahaha, yes. He is my nephew. I was the one who taught him how to fight back in the days."
"So, are you interested in him? His talent is superb that I assure you. But not as high as mine!"
The Sect Master Feng Rong boasted about his niece so much that Rong Yuan became hearing sick of it.
Feng Rong would also add a few shameless claims like "He is below this awesome one!", "I was the one who gave him this technique!".
Rong Yuan regretted speaking out loud.
"Thanks, Sect Master, I will think about it."
He finally silenced the Sect Master with the 'thinking about' option.
After some time passed. Yuan observed the other two, completely throwing out the option of Feng Hua, after knowing he is the Sect Master's nephew.
However, Zhou Wei and Huan's situations were unexpected.
Zho Wei won his three fights consecutively, leaving Yuan speechless, but his last two fights failed. Rong Yuan sighed looking at that boy. He had an honest look on his face and he never give up in his last fights too.
Unfortunately, this idiot's IQ or intelligence wasn't on par with his raw power. Furthermore, he looked like he was fond of eating.
Whenever Yuan spotted him while his free time he always was eating something. He was a glutton it seems.
And finally Huan, the last person on his list, won his second match in about 10 seconds, leaving him amazed.
But he ended up unexpectedly losing his third match. He was defeated by a strike that he would be able to defend himself if he tried.
So Rong Yuan was surprised and suspicion arose in his heart and mind.
{System, what happened?}
He asked in his mind, hoping the system may know it.
[I think in the last moment he didn't defend himself with spirit power.]
{So you are saying he couldn't control it or he did it himself?}
[I am not sure about it.]
[The best way is to check it for ourselves.]
{Hmm, you are right.}
Then Rong Yuan stood up from his seat and slowly started to leave.
"Huh, where are you going Yuan?"
A sudden voice stopped Yuan from leaving.
"I'm going to check out on a friend, Sect Master. I will be back soon."
Rong Yuan looked at the Sect Master Feng Rong and said some lies.
Then he left for his destination – The Healer's Room, where Huan was placed.
Rong Yuan decided to hide his identity so he wore a robe, a mask, and a hood.
Rong Yuan passed before the fighting stages and looked at them briefly.
"Sister, go win! You can do it!"
"Shen Liqin!"
Rong Yuan suddenly halted his steps.
{Did I hear that right?} He waited for a moment and was about to leave he heard something which caused him to stop again.
"Shen Liqin! Win!"
{…}
Rong Yuan's eyes turned cold, his heart also started to beat faster and he started to walk toward the voice.
He searched around the people and saw someone he knew.
{Yichen!}
His eyes emitted a killing intent the moment he spotted that person.
More precisely his number one enemy – Yichen.
As if sensing his direct killing intent two killing intents were directed at him, and Yichen also looked in his direction.
Rong Yuan recognized one of the killing intents, it was from the Sect Master Feng Rong. But the other one was from someone powerful. At least at the same level as the Sect Master.
His killing intent wouldn't lose them but his cultivation level was crap before those two.
Gritting his teeth, he stopped his killing intent and merged into the crowd.
Then, killing intents were released from him, which caused Yuan to sigh in relief. However, it didn't help to lessen his anger even one bit.
{I never knew I would see him this soon. I thought it might take a long time to search for him.}
{I will get my revenge sooner than I expected.}
[So this is Yichen, host?]
{Yes, he is. By the way, can you identify the owner of the second killing intent?}
[Of course host. It was from a lady who is hiding in the crowd.]
{What? A lady? How powerful is she?}
[As you guessed she is at the level of the Sect Master Feng Rong.]
{Hmm, in that case, my revenge will be paused for a while.}
[What do you wanna do host? I know you don't leave this simple.]
{Hahaha, I can't hide anything from you.}
{I will give a small 'gift' to the lady. And while she is dealing with 'it', I will get a 'tiny' revenge.}
Rong Yuan laughed sinisterly and smile devilishly.
It added another type of charm to his face, but no one could see it.
[You sure have a high IQ, host. I am impressed by your 'simple', yet effective plan.]
{Watch while I apply this plan in action!}
******
After some time.
Rong Yuan was observing the lady closely.
Suddenly the lady disappeared from her place which caused Yuan to smile.
{It's time for the second part of the plan.}
The fight which was Yichen watching had already ended, Yichen was walking with a girl who just finished her fight with a victory.
Suddenly Yichen hugged the girl and the girl blushed. But in the next moment, Yichen who had a smiling face switched into a horror one.
~Thud
Yichen passed out and let go of the girl, and fall down to the ground.
"What?"
"What happened to you brother Yichen?"
Then the lady who disappeared previously came before them. She looked around to find the culprit.
But, how could she find Rong Yuan who had the System's help?
Then the lady said something to the girl and led them toward the Healer's Room.
{Sucess!}
Rong Yuan rejoiced in his mind after his successful attack.
But he never expected Yichen to hug the girl after sensing the danger, wanting to use the girl as a meat shield.
He was truly a 'scum'.
Unfortunately for Yichen, Rong Yuan's secret technique was target-bound, it always hit the target.
After seeing them leaving toward the Healer's Room Yuan thought of something.
{I seemed to forget something important...}
{Yeah! I left the podium for checking on that boy!}
Rong Yuan forgot about Huan, his initial purpose after he saw Yichen.
It is always true that when you get angry, you lose your mind.
