Chapter 155: Nemesis

Chapter 155 Nemesis

Inside the car. Ye Hao looked through the window at the huge crowds gathered outside the store and the two long lines. This scene startled him. “So many people?”

He raised his head and looked at the store sign. This was the place he was looking for. Then, he saw some familiar faces from the academy. Some of them were top students.

“They…” Ye Hao raised his eyebrows. They got there earlier than him.

He didn’t wait any longer and got out of the car.

The store had not opened yet. The students could only wait there in boredom. Naturally, someone would look around. Soon, someone noticed Ye Hao getting out of that luxurious car. Those students stared at him in bewilderment.

“Look! It’s Ye Hao!”

“He’s here!”

Soon, more people saw Ye Hao. They all turned to look at him, surprised.

Ye Hao was the star student in the academy, and was quite famous with good reason. Almost everyone in the academy knew him.

Ye Hao had been crushed by Luo Fengtian from the Berserking Blade Academy in their recent “friendly” match. But that didn’t imply that Ye Hao was weak. It was that Luo Fengtian was strangely strong! After all, Ye Hao himself was a fifth rank battle pet warrior and had an adult dragon. That was enough for him to overwhelm others.

Ye Hao frowned at the chaos stirred up by him. But he had become used to it. “It’s him?”

Standing on the side, Xu Kuang was surprised to see Ye Hao.

Just then, he felt this person was familiar. That name came to his mind when he heard the other people exclaiming.

It was last year when Xu Kuang was in grade two; he had met this lad named Ye Hao at the exchange match. Back then, Ye Hao lost to him.

In less than a year, that lad had built up more fame.

From the students’ conversations, Xu Kuang had an idea that those students were most likely from the Phoenix Peak Academy.

After some thought, Xu Kuang understood. Amongst all the famous academies in the Longjiang Base City, Phoenix Peak Academy was at the bottom. The academy was located in the shantytown area, quite close to this current address. It wasn’t strange that those students would go to Mr. Su’s home.

But, was this Mr. Su’s home? Xu Kuang doubted it as he looked at the store. Xu Yingxue noticed the look on Xu Kuang’s face. She threw a look to Ye Hao who was in the distance and asked, “Do you know that

guy?”

“Yes. He lost to me last year.” Xu Kuang nodded.

Xu Yingxue didn’t stare at Xu Kuang any longer. She shifted her focus to the store.

It was just… too common.

Why was it a store? This didn’t make sense.

Why would a titled battle pet warrior run a store in the shantytown area?

“Eh?”

At the moment, Ye Hao noticed the Xu siblings from the corner of his eye, which took him aback.

Those two stood out in the crowd. That girl next to Xu Kuang, in particular, was like a sharp sword unsheathed. The general public might not sense the difference in her. But to Ye Hao, she could catch attention and he felt danger in her.

“It’s him!” Ye Hao recognized Xu Kuang at once. He was surprised, and that emotion was soon replaced with a gloomy mood.

The year before, he fought in an exchange match with a senior from grade three. Unfortunately, Ye Hao was defeated. To make it worse, afterward, he was taunted and laughed at by his opponent, Xu Kuang.

For that very reason, he was able to make a striking progress in the past year.

Nobody would be able to imagine what kind of hellish experience he went through to train.

To some extent, he had to thank Xu Kuang. But he would never forgive him!

Xu Kuang raised his eyebrows and made a provocative face. He had noticed the coldness in Ye Hao’s eyes. How could his defeated opponent be this arrogant?

Ye Hao pressed down his anger since he was wary of the lady next to Xu Kuang. By the looks of it, Xu Kuang and this lady seemed to be close. Even though Ye Hao was confident that he could defeat Xu Kuang easily by then, he could not be this impulsive.

With a loud noise, the store’s door was opened. Su Ping looked tired. He threw a look at the dense crowds by the door. All of them were young people. They had to be from the Phoenix Peak Academy.

“Those coming to pick up pets, line up on the right. Those coming to train pets, line up on the left. Right side first,” Su Ping said the usual rule.

The two lines were ready. This was attributable to some recurrent customers. They helped Su Ping organize everything.

“Mr. Su?”

The first in line was still Zhang Baoxing. Since he had failed to be the first one previously, he showed up earlier this day. At four in the morning. Zhang Baoxing was surprised to see Su Ping coming out from the store. “Mr. Su, why were you here already?”

“I slept in the store.” Su Ping glanced at him. He remembered Zhang Baoxing well and admired the latter. It wasn’t easy to be the first in line every time. “Wait here. I’ll get your pet.”

With that said, Su Ping went inside.

By the street.

When Su Ping opened the door, Xu Kuang, Xu Yingxue, and Ye Hao saw Su Ping.

Ye Hao’s eyes glowed. He paid no more attention to Xu Kuang and hurried to the store.

When Xu Kuang saw Su Ping, he cried out in pleasant surprise, “It’s him! It’s him!”

Xu Yingxue had thought that Su Ping was the student of that titled battle pet warrior. She was disappointed, thinking that it was then impossible for her brother to take that exalted warrior as his teacher. She was startled by Xu Kuang’s words.

“What him?”

“That titled battle pet warrior!” Xu Kuang was excited.

Then, he remembered all of a sudden that Su Ping’s young look was utterly confusing. He hurried to explain, “I forgot to tell you. The titled battle pet warrior that taught me is younger than I am. Sister, he is more talented than me!”

Xu Yingxue paid no heed to the added compliment. She had already been left dumbfounded.

“He’s the titled battle pet warrior you mentioned?” Xu Yingxue opened her eyes wide. How could he be so young?

Xu Kuang nodded. He sounded smug. “However strong you are, there’s always someone stronger.”

Xu Yingxue was speechless. That someone was not merely stronger. He was insanely stronger. Of course, the first thing she had to do was to make sure that what Xu Kuang had told her was the truth.

How could there be a titled battle pet warrior this young? If that person was this powerful, he would easily win the championship at the Elite League.

The past winners of the Elite League were all core members of famous households. None of those winners would be in dire want of money and run a store.

“Did he fool you?” Xu Yingxue frowned. She didn’t feel good about this. That person had tricked her brother of his money. To make it worse, Xu Kuang had traveled such a long way to get there. He had been practically brainwashed.

“Of course not!”

Xu Kuang explained in a haste. “How could I be fooled? Sister, he is young but he is quite formidable. I haven’t seen his pets yet but he can defeat my pets on his own. With that kind of strength, he should at least be at the seventh or eighth rank, even if he’s not a titled battle pet warrior.”

The more Xu Yingxue heard about it, the angrier she was.

She found several inconsistencies in Xu Kuang’s words.

Xu Kuang had not seen that person’s pets?

Then, he changed his description to the seventh or eighth rank?

To become a battle pet warrior of the seventh or eighth rank was difficult enough, but those two ranks could not compare to titled battle pet warriors.

Besides, considering Su Ping’s age, Xu Yingxue didn’t think he was at the seventh rank, not to mention the eighth rank.

She had met many important characters in the barren areas. However, it was rare to find an advanced battle pet warrior at such a young age. She had worked so hard so many years after graduating and she had just become an advanced battle pet warrior.

The business was busy in the store. Xu Yingxue smelled the stink of money. Her brother was not the only one being tricked. That guy was surely using some tricks to con those people.

“Follow me.” Xu Yingxue pulled a long face and walked over.

Xu Kuang was surprised. He noticed something was off in his sister’s tone. He went after her in a hurry. “Sister?”

Su Ping picked up Zhang Baoxing’s Pyro Canine and told the latter the result of this training, “It didn’t learn any new skills. Its combat strength was increased by half a rank.” The Pyro Canine had been trained many times. The chances of learning new skills became less as it progressed. Just the combat strength had been increased.

Even so, to increase the combat strength by half a rank in one day was still beyond people’s imagination.

Zhang Baoxing was glad. He thanked Su Ping. He was about to leave for the barren area. He was unwilling to leave this place. On the other hand, he lacked money. He could make some money while training himself in the barren area.

“Mr… Su?” Su Ping heard a voice. It was Ye Hao.

Zhang Baoxing turned around. He was surprised to see Ye Hao there.

What was this academy celebrity doing there at Su Ping’s store?

Had Ye Hao also been attracted there by the store’s fame?

Ye Hao still felt strange to recognize Su Ping as his teacher but what Su Ping demonstrated the day before had convinced him.

Su Ping darted him a glance. “Are you here for the training?”

“Well…” Ye Hao was there to meet Ye Hao and talk to him about combat and cultivation. As for pet training, he wasn’t all that interested. After all, he had eighth-rank master trainers taking care of his pets.

He thought that other people might even hurt his pets.

Su Ping stared at him with ardent passion. Ye Hao nodded after some hesitation.

To turn him down would be embarrassing to Su Ping, and it could indirectly affect Su Ping’s business.
