Chapter 316: Registration Interlude
Thinking of this, Wang Yufan wondered if he hadn’t reported yet. He was representing Qingcheng, and if he hadn’t signed in, would he be disqualified?
Wang Yufan quickly awoke from his meditative state. He then walked out of the Nine Absolutes Tower. Looking at the Nine Absolutes Tower floating in his hand, Wang Yufan felt quite pleased.
After putting it away, Wang Yufan looked at the sky; it was currently afternoon.
After Wang Yufan put away the Nine Absolutes Tower, his figure vanished from the spot.
Bright Moon City was now covered in various banners, all cheering on their fellow disciples and seniors to win tomorrow’s preliminary round of the Genius Grand Competition.
Wang Yufan’s figure silently appeared before a sign covered in lists, reading the introduction: "The Genius Grand Competition will be held tomorrow at the Eastern Training Ground in Bright Moon City. Geniuses from all over who have not signed in yet, please hurry to the sign-in point set up by the Imperial Court in Mingyue for registration."
Seeing this, Wang Yufan looked around. With his eyesight, there was a sign-in point just a short distance from him.
Wang Yufan walked over.
At this moment, a portly official, dressed in the exclusive uniform of the Mingyue Empire, had two attendants fanning him continuously.
"Sir, it’s too hot. Let’s go back. Today is the last day, so all applicants must have arrived by now," one of them said. freёweɓnovel.com
The other also chimed in, "Yes, yes."
The portly Imperial official slowly picked up the teacup from the table in front of him, took two sips, and said unhurriedly, "What you two said is very reasonable. What kind of person is I, Wang Li? Staying here for so long just to sign in for others? If tomorrow’s Genius Grand Competition wasn’t a major event for our Mingyue Empire, I wouldn’t do it. Alright, let’s go. You two clean up here." Wang Li said to his two attendants and then slowly prepared to stand up.
Just then, Wang Yufan’s figure arrived before the three. Seeing someone approach, Wang Li’s attendant impatiently said, "Who are you? What are you standing here for? Get lost before I get angry."
Wang Yufan didn’t get angry when he heard this but instead said, "I’m here to participate in tomorrow’s Genius Grand Competition. Aren’t you going to register me?"
Hearing that Wang Yufan was there to register, the two attendants were slightly stunned, then looked at the portly Wang Li.
Wang Li slowly raised his eyes and looked at Wang Yufan, saying indifferently, "Why are you signing in so late? Don’t you know today is the last day? You’re too late. Participate next year. Let’s go." After Wang Li finished speaking, he prepared to leave with his two attendants.
Seeing this, Wang Yufan said unhurriedly, "I was delayed on the way, which is why I’m late. Moreover, the registration period hasn’t ended today. Your early departure clearly means you want to leave work early."
Hearing Wang Yufan’s words, the portly Wang Li snorted coldly, "As the person in charge of registration here, if I say there’s no time, then there’s no time. If you’re late, you’re late. Don’t go against me, and don’t think you’re so great just because you have some strength."
Hearing the last sentence, Wang Yufan was instantly speechless and said, "You’re the one who’s arrogant, alright? Looking at your conduct, the Mingyue Empire won’t be much better, but no matter the reason, you have to register me today, whether you want to or not."
"Oh, kid, do you know who our adult is? Looking at you, do you want to make a move? We admit we can’t beat you, but don’t be too arrogant. Our adult is the only bloodline of Li Gang, the Imperial Advisor of the Mingyue Empire. Now you know who you’ve provoked, right?" Hearing this, Wang Yufan smiled and said, "So your father is Li Gang? No wonder you’re so arrogant that you don’t even follow the laws of this Mingyue Empire, but your strength is too low. If you’re just an ordinary person, you should know that no matter how strong your backing is, at critical moments, you have to rely on yourself. So if you don’t register me today, I will definitely make him enjoy himself thoroughly."
As soon as Wang Yufan finished speaking, another attendant next to Wang Li, not believing in evil, directly stood up and said, "No matter who you are, when you come to Bright Moon City of my Mingyue Empire, if you’re a tiger, you’ll lie down for me; if you’re a dragon, you’ll curl up for me."
Looking at the person who came out, Wang Yufan directly reached out and gave him a big slap, sending him flying. Wang Yufan even deliberately said, "Hmm, not bad, not bad. He flew very far, it seems. I wonder which of you two will be next."
Watching his subordinate get slapped away by Wang Yufan, Wang Li glared with angry eyes and said, "My father is Li Gang! You’re finished, kid! You think you’re invincible just because you have some strength!"
Hearing Wang Li’s words, Wang Yufan also said, "You too. Do you think having a backer means you can act arrogantly? Fake is always fake, and what isn’t yours can never be yours. So, pighead, I’ll count to three again. If you don’t register me, then I don’t mind loosening your bones for your father."
At this moment, in Wang Li’s eyes, although Wang Yufan looked harmless, his current expression truly made him feel terrified.
After about dozens of breaths, under the gaze of the crowd, the already portly Wang Li’s face now had several more bumps. His two accompanying attendants were also bruised and swollen.
"That... Big Brother, where are you from? What’s your name?" Wang Li asked brokenly.
Wang Yufan said, "Just write Qingcheng Wang Yufan."
Hearing this, Wang Li quickly registered Wang Yufan’s competition information at the fastest speed of his life.
"Anything else?" Wang Yufan asked.
"No... nothing. You just need to come to the Eastern Training Ground tomorrow for the competition. The rules will be explained then," Wang Li said.
