Chapter 961: The Past Makes One Emotional!

“grandmaster-level!”

“Are you kidding me?”

Pittman shouted after a moment of silence.

He could accept a master-level runemaster who hadn’t turned 20 yet. After all, he had seen many talents. However, such a young grandmaster was impossible!

Pittman didn’t believe him. Jiang Wenxing didn’t believe him either. He quickly regained his composure and smiled. “If you said this to stimulate me, you win. I can’t be compared to someone who has reached the grandmaster level before hitting his twenties.”

Although he was admitting defeat, the disdain and contempt in his tone were apparent.

Wang Teng frowned. He wanted to disregard Jiang Wenxing at first, but the contemptuous tone irked him. He replied calmly, “Do you think you can fight with me if I participate in the master-level assessment?”

Jiang Wenxing’s expression froze.

His words made sense!

A 20-year-old master was definitely better than a 32-year-old master. The difference in talent and potential between them was vast.

“Mr. Wang Teng, runes are a broad and profound field. Even grandmaster-level runemasters maintain a humble attitude. I don’t think you should be so arrogant,” Pittman said.

Wang Teng glanced at him and said, “When you came over to find your sense of superiority, were you thinking of remaining humble?”

“You!” Pittman’s face turned black.

“Also, I’m not looking down on anyone. You were the one who came to compare with me. You stretched your feet out and waited for me to step on it. Is it my fault?” Wang Teng asked calmly.

He had never lost when it comes to refuting!

“Pfft!” Jiang Wenxing felt a stab in his heart.

Pittman was speechless too. He was right. They were the ones who came to speak to them first. He couldn’t find any reason to refute Wang Teng now.

“Hahaha, Master Pittman, why don’t you bring your Master Jiang Wenxing to the assessment area first? If you’re late, you’ll have to wait for the next one.” Fan Taining laughed when he saw Pittman choking on his own words.

“Hmph!” Pittman knew that he was in the wrong, so he snorted and entered the assessment room with Jiang Wenxing.

“Master Wang Teng, thank you. Although I have some grudges with Pittman, I didn’t want to pull you in. Sorry to implicate you. However, he found the wrong person to tease this time,” Fan Taining said to Wang Teng gratefully.

“Nothing, it’s just a small matter,” Wang Teng said.

“Let’s go to the venue,” Fan Taining said hurriedly.

He thought that what Wang Teng said about taking the grandmaster-level assessment was just to help him.

“Erm… I’m not lying. I really want to participate in the grandmaster-level exam!” Wang Teng was speechless.

“What? You’re serious?” Fan Taining widened his eyes in shock as he exclaimed.

He knew that Wang Teng’s rune mastery was high. That was why he was able to enlighten him just by answering a few of his questions. However, when he thought about how extraordinary grandmasters were, he started to feel a little uncertain.

The grandmaster-level assessment was extremely difficult. Many master-level runemasters got stuck here and couldn’t break through.

There was a chasm between a master and a grandmaster. This wasn’t a gap that could be overcome purely through time and effort. It required talent too.

This was the reason why more than 80% of master-level runemasters failed to reach that stage.

“I can’t take it?” Wang Teng asked.

“You can.” Fan Taining was a little hesitant. “However, it’s a little more troublesome as compared to the master-level assessment. We need to inform three or more grandmaster-level runemasters for this assessment.”

Dr. Leonardo and Master Blacksmith Hobson also came over. They didn’t interfere just now, but they were equally astounded.

“Master Wang Teng, how confident are you?” Leonardo asked.

“At least 70%.” Wang Teng was acting humble. If he said 100%, they probably wouldn’t believe him. He would have to explain to them again.

“That’s really high!” Fan Taining’s expression changed. He was elated. If Wang Teng was honestly so confident, as his recommender, he would gain great benefits too!

This was a grandmaster!

A grandmaster runemaster who hadn’t reached 20!

What did this mean?

Even his master might come to snatch the position of the recommender if he learned about this.

He said hurriedly, “Master Wang Teng, if you’re certain you want to participate in this assessment, I’ll have to make an application immediately. However, you need to wait. I’m not sure if there are three or more grandmasters available today.”

“Is it this troublesome?” Wang Teng was surprised.

“It can’t be helped. After all, this is a grandmaster-level assessment!” Fan Taining said with a bitter smile.

“In that case…” Wang Teng paused for a second.

He was in a dilemma. Should he tell them that he wanted to take the grandmaster-level assessment for smithery and alchemy too?

After all, three grandmaster-level assessments were a little exaggerated!

What if they got frightened?

But he recalled his current situation. If he didn’t display his ability now, his enemies would come and look for him soon. He cemented his resolve and said, “In that case, help me to apply for the grandmaster-level smithery and alchemy assessments too.”

(ΩДΩ)… Three in a row!

Master Fan Taining: ???

Dr. Leonardo: ???

Master Blacksmith Hobson: ???

This time, they weren’t just stunned. They lost their thoughts for a split second. It was as if their minds were switched off.

“Are you guys alright?” Wang Teng asked worriedly.

He didn’t think that they would be so surprised!

Come on, y’all are not young anymore. Why is your mind so weak?

“Cough… Master Wang Teng, you scared me,” Fan Taining said with a forced smile.

“I think it’s alright. I heard that there are many talents in the universe. Isn’t it common to find someone with three grandmaster titles?” Wang Teng asked.

“Three grandmaster titles are common?” Fan Taining almost vomited blood. He started cursing in his mind. Your head! Do you think grandmaster titles can be bought in the market like cabbages?

“One grandmaster title is rare enough, much less three!”

“You must have some misunderstanding about the grandmaster level!”

“Really?” Wang Teng tried his best to suppress his smile when he saw their expressions, saying innocently, “I thought that three grandmaster titles can be found everywhere. To think that I worked so hard to raise my ability. I stayed up many nights and days cultivating just to reach this stage. The past is making me emotional.”

The three masters: …

Wang Teng’s achievement was the result of his hard work?

Indeed, they were not working hard enough!

Even a rare talent like Wang Teng was toiling so hard. What reasons did normal people like them have to slack?

The three masters started to look at Wang Teng in a different light.
