Chapter 48: Earning Points the efficient way II

The sun yet to rise yet everyone in the dorms were already up on their feet.

As the dust settled, Wang Ling's gallant figure appeared as he stood there with his fist tightly clenched. At this moment his fist was releasing steam and he was staring at it with a disappointed look.

[My body is still not that strong.] Wang Ling said something if said out loud can caused people look at him weirdly. His strength was already so terrifying yet he had a look of disappointment on his face.

As Wang Ling was immersed his in his own little world, Fang Yan climbed out of the ground.

"Gah!" vomiting a mouthful of blood as he felt the hellish qi invade his body for a while, Fang Yan looked at Wang Ling with horror. How can this person be so strong? What did he do to create such a strong body?

He himself knew how hard it was to temper and refine the body. Fang Yan was a cultivator who focuses on strengthening his body. He had gone through a lot of hardships just to achieve the body he proudly shows to the world yet Wang Ling's body was even more powerful that his.

Gathering what is left of his strength. Fang Yan spoke to Wang Ling as he got ready to leave.

"I have lost but don't think that I am going to forget this. I will beat you someday, wait for it." He could no longer fight so why bother staying? To humiliate himself?

Fang Yan turned around, ready to leave when Wang Ling's voice was heard behind him.

"Wait!" Wang Ling called out.

"What is it?"

"Where's my 500 points?" Wang Ling demanded the price.

===

By the time the sun came rose from the sky, Wang Ling's name had already circulated amongst the students of the outer circle. Fang Yan, the guy who Wang Ling had beaten wasn't a mere nobody as he was someone with considerable background and name.

Fang Yan was a member of the Fang Clan who specializes the usage of body refinement technique; the members of the Fang Clan all have strong bodies that is unmatched.

The Fang Clan's [Mountain Body] was no joke. It gave the family members of the Fang Clan unimaginable strength and impenetrable defense.

In the inner circles of the Piercing Heaven Academy, in a place called [Dragon Manor] a handsome young man wearing the exclusive red uniform and had a build comparable to that of a great warrior. Coupled with his great looks, long hair, and his majestic body this student was like a general.

This man was Fang Guan, Fang Yan's cousin. However, Fang Guan was a member of the main family. Fang Yan was just some trash from the branches.

Fang Guan listened with great interest, he had never heard anyone who has a stronger that is from outside his clan. Maybe Ruogang might possess such a body, but that guy is not normal.

After listening to the story, Fang Guan let out a hearty laugh.

"Seriously? That's hilarious, he actually dared fight it out with someone who almost claimed Tian De's life? Haha, and they actually think that Tian De lost on purpose?"

Fang Guan was laughing his ass off listening to the story. The outer circle of the academy is too laughable, there are people there who are around his age and has yet to enter energy palace stage.

There are people there who thinks highly of themselves while having no actual talent. Fang Guan was well aware about the true geniuses of the realm as he had seen the people of the [Seven Great Academies].

"So what are you telling me this? It better not be just to pass the time; I was in the midst of cultivation so this better be good."

Fang Guan's laugh ceased as he looked at the person who was telling him the story. The person who had reported to Fang Guan shivered when he heard Fang Guan's voice.

This Young Master of the Fang Clan was the greatest genius of their Clan. At the early age of 17 and he had already reached pinnacle-energy palace stage. This year, he is considered one of the ten people who will be able to get a spot to enter the seven great academies.

Being a cultivation maniac who pours everything in his cultivation to reach greater heights. Fang Guan is the pride of the Fang Clan. Being the pride of the Fang Clan, the person who reported the incident thought that he would act against Wang Ling after knowing the Clan's name is besmirch.

Fang Guan who seemed to have noticed his reaction and frowned.

"So it's nothing but empty news. Did you think I would move against Wang Ling just because Fang Yan is disgraced? That's his own fault not mine, the Fang Clan is not him, me making a move is not necessary!"

Fang Guan was irritated. He came out of seclusion just for this?

[This is why I hate being the Young Master of a big Clan. I'm not the babysitter of the younger generation!]

Fang Guan does not hate being a member of the Fang family as he gains benefits that let him gain advantage over others. But the single fact that every little shit the younger generation makes it automatic for him to step forward and keep the so called 'Clan reputation' as illustrious as possible.

Looking at the person who reported this incident to him, Fang Guan felt even more irritated.

"Is that it? If that's it I'm going to cultivate now!" Fang Guan was prepared to leave when the person stopped him with a few words.

"The members of the expedition has been finalized! Wang Ling is one of them!" Almost forgetting about this issue, he immediately spoke up before Fang Guan could leave.

Fang Guan stopped on his tracks as a spark of interest finally flickered in his eyes.

Noon, Wang Ling had finished his training but he didn't go out to the libraries to read books. Instead, he went to find a white cloth that was two meters long. He then went ahead and wrote something on the cloth before tying it up to two bamboo poles he got with the white cloth.

After doing all that, he went to outer circle Martial Hall where most students spar against one another.

The Martial Hall was a big place. It was an open dome with thousands of seats around. The middle of the Martial Hall was wide and spacious that dozens of individual fights could break out and not one will feel and inconvenience or have their movements restricted.

Wang Ling entered the Martial Hall and instantly attracted the eyes of the students. They didn't need to guess who he was as there was only a single one armed student in the academy.

Wang Ling's name had been buzzing around lately. Amongst the students of the outer circle, Wang Ling is one of the most well-known.

Seeing that there were many people eyeing him, Wang Ling smiled and went to find a free area. As he stood there he judged the place suitable.

"Wang Ling, fight me! You kept your doors lock until morning because of your cowardice! You're not going to run away now that you're here, are you!?"

Someone suddenly shouted. It was someone who had stood in front of Wang Ling's house until midnight. His irritation against Wang Ling was boundless he was a 'genius' who was Wang Ling him to treat him in such a way?

This guy was not alone. There were others who looked like a fool when Wang Ling shut his doors on them and was shouting at Wang Ling the instant the dam had burst.

"Do you think beating the brat of the Fang Clan!?"

"Wang Ling, you bastard, do you dare fight me!?"

Wang Ling listened to their shouts but did not pay attention to it as he took out the piece of cloth he had tied into the bamboo pole. He set up the bamboo poles and the words that was written on the cloth came to full view.

The cloth says: "Strongest of the outer circle: Challenge fee 500 points!!!! Rewards: 1000 points and the title of the strongest!"

Wang Ling turned around to see the dazed look at the other students as he grandly announced!

"I will now accept challenges. Offer 500 points and I will fight you, win and receive 1000 points and the title of the strongest in the outer circle!" Wang Ling's voice was amplified with spirit qi.

His bold announcement made many stare at him as if he was some kind of idiot. Setting up a fee for challenging you might be reasonable, but the title of the strongest as the reward? Is that a joke?

Who gave him the right to claim the strongest! No one!

"What!? No one dares to step to the challenged? It seems like you trash are nothing. 500 points and all of you are cowering? It would seem that the students of the Piercing Heaven Academy is nothing but spineless cowards who can only bark but not bite.

"If any of you don't wish to challenge me then, SCRAM! Go and spread the word, I will fight anyone that is a member of the outer circle! Tell them that, I, Wang Ling is looking down upon them! Puu!"

Wang Ling spat on the ground as he finished his piece. His unbridled words set the flames in the hearts of the students present.

They wanted to smash Wang Ling's face and see him cry blood.

"What right do you have to say that you can give the title of the strongest? Do you think you are s great? Do you think that you're stronger than Rashiki, Liang Xinya and Zhenya?"

One student questioned Wang Ling. Wang Ling responded with a wide grin and a confident tone of voice.

"Yes, I do believe that I am stronger than them! Do you not have eyes? I have written that I am the strongest in the outer circle, what is there to question? If you think I am unworthy of that title then challenge me for it.

"Prove your point or are you just some trash who can only speak the name of others because you are too weak? Also, if you're poor then just scram away for me. I don't want to take points away from those who can't even buy a single spirit stone.

"I can see that your cultivation is the same as mine, come and challenge me if you dare. Bet and prove your worth!"

Spreading his arm wide, Wang Ling started shouting insults after insults. Being a young, the student he was trying to fighting him gladly took the bait. Stepping forward, the student took out a sword and pointed it towards Wang Ling.

"Trash, I'll fucking take that remaining arms of yours! Poor!? I'll fucking give you double of the challenge fee if you promise to grovel on the ground as you proclaim that you are nothing but some cowardly lying trash!"

The student was incense. He looked at Wang Ling as if he had massacred his family.

Wang Ling's face beamed as he heard the words of the student. Immediately accepting the bet, Wang Ling spoke.

"I will do anything you want as long as you double the bet! Alright, step forward and face me, our witnesses is everyone watching, the loser will pay what is promised! Now make your move!"

Wang Ling didn't need to say anything as his opponent made his move and appeared above Wang Ling.

Activating Ocean's Lull, Wang Ling's field of vision encompassed the five meter radius of his surroundings. He didn't dare take it easy on his upon as a fight have infinite number of possibilities. He might just lose if he became complacent.

Wang Ling circulated his spirit qi and used up one qi pillar to parry the attack. His hands became a weapon as he wrapped it with supreme spirit qi.

Striking forward, Wang Ling let out a bellow. The booming sound of thunder resounded as he fist traversed the space between his opponent's defenses and found its way on his face.

Bang!

Wang Ling sent his opponent flying with great force.

Boom!

The student he had just set flying crashed on the ground and web-like cracks appeared. The student tried to get up but as if he was some puppet that had its strings cut, the student crashed on the ground limply looking at Wang Ling with disbelief.

Wang Ling saw this and then turned to the other students.

"Trash! Now give me the points and scram!"

Wang Ling domineeringly announced.

The other students looked at Wang Ling with hate as they viewed as a tyrant. The students that was near the defeated opponent helped him up and give Wang Ling the promised reward.

After receiving the points, Wang Ling noticed that various students were backing away from fear so he smirked and started raining down curses and insults at the students like there was no tomorrow.

"What a trash, is this the strength of the outer circle? Now I see why you people can't advance and become inner circle students. You cowards actually got scared off by that kind of fight? Let me tell you, just stop on cultivating and open up shops in some backwater Kingdom that is far away from danger.

"You sissies won't survive the moment you step out of this academy if you don't even have the courage to challenge me, someone who have insulted you to your bones!"
