Chapter 188 Astral Telekinesis

“Are you sure you’ll trust this, well, young man?” Qin Shuhai questioned while carefully inspecting Su Ping from the outside. He had cooperated with many famous families and clans in Longjiang City, yet he couldn’t remember ever seeing Su Ping anywhere.

Even while traveling outside, he more or less kept in touch with the city. No one had ever mentioned a “Su family” suddenly gaining fame and power.

Luo Guxue nodded. “Professor Su is my colleague. Don’t let his looks fool you though, he’s already a titled warrior.”

“What did you say??”

Both Qin Shuhai and the other titled warriors in the room went wide-eyed. Even Ye Chenshan and Zhou Jing were wondering whether their teammate had lost her mind.

As a matter of fact, even Su Ping himself didn’t expect Luo Guxue to overstate his strength like this.

Must be my Astral Telekinesis skill… She saw it and overestimated my level?

Su Ping wanted to clarify the truth, but didn’t do it on second thought, for he didn’t want to reveal his Astral Telekinesis skill to anyone. Besides, he was at an advantage if people saw him as a titled warrior; this would help him sell his items faster.

Thinking about this, he remained quiet and decided to keep up with the show.

Ye Chenshan tugged Luo Guxue’s arm. “Areare you sure?? Mister Su is a titled warrior?”

“I am.” Luo Guxue looked determined. “I saw his power with my own eyes. He can fly. You know only titled warriors are capable of that, right?”

“Fly??” The others were shocked yet again.

“But how is that possible when he’s only, you know…” Zhou Jing looked unconvinced.

“He’s what you call a born genius, perhaps.” Luo Guxue sighed in awe.

Su Ping listened to all the flattery while feeling a bit embarrassed.

Qin Shuhai was checking Su Ping’s aura again. He had already confirmed that Su Ping was only at the fifth rank or so, which… didn’t quite add up. No one with a sound mind would take a fifth-rank burden on a Mysterious Realm expedition since that would get everyone killed.

If Su Ping was truly a titled battle pet warrior, that meant he had enough to become the final champion of the Elite League at such an age. Everyone present had realized that. Qin Shuhai, as the young master of the Qin family, was already a peerless genius rarely found in human history. He had reached the seventh rank at the age of 20, which was a miracle on its own.

Su Ping’s case was downright impossible in their view.

Naturally, many people present were doubtful of Luo Guxue’s claim. They thought Luo Guxue was using such an excuse to scare off coveting folks so she could take their loot away.

Or perhaps she had simply lost her mind.

“I… must say I’ve never seen such a budding boy with such supreme aptitude.” Lady Feng gave Su Ping an alluring look. “Supposing it’s true, then this little handsome boy is not any less talented than Venerable the Blade in his early years. Can you perhaps show us what you can do?”

“Yeah! I want to see it!” another man followed up. Su Ping raised an eyebrow but didn’t respond.

Someone sneered as if their “conjecture” had been proven right.

“Hey, Mister Su, right? Come on, show us your tricks. You don’t need to move around in the sky or something. Getting your feet off the ground for a few seconds will do.”

“Do it! Do it!”

Su Ping gave them an amused smile. “Why would I listen to you?”

“What? It’s not like flying right now will hurt you.”

“You claimed to be a titled warrior, so why aren’t you proving it to us?”

“He’s just a lying clown, that’s why!”

Since the buyer of the Astral Spirit Fruit had already been determined, the other titled warriors didn’t hold back and insulted Su Ping.

Speaking of the fruit, they suddenly noticed that it was floating in midair, instead of lying where it should be.

“Will this do?” said Su Ping, as he pointed a finger at the flying fruit.

The sight had silenced everyone who was questioning him just then; using astral power to levitate objects without touching them was indeed a sign that suggested a titled warrior’s level.

But I just left the city for a few years! Qin Shuhai couldn’t believe his eyes. Where did this guy spring from?? Su Ping controlled the fruit to glide past everyone’s noses to shut them up.

The display just told everyone that he was not only talented, but was also blessed with abundant resources. A natural genius could not grow up without help after all.

Ye Chenshan and Zhou Jing stared at Su Ping with mouths agape. They would have never believed that the strongest member in the team was not their captain, but a young man they had been underestimating at the beginning. Both Su Ping and his pets were top-class!

Qin Shuhai recovered from the shock first and flashed a friendly smile. “That was marvelous, Mister Su. May I have the honor of knowing where you hail from? I’d make sure to pay you a visit when I find the chance.”

Su Ping lowered the fruit. “Shall we get to our business first?”

Qin Shuhai wanted to blame all the careless people who had displeased Su Ping, but tried not to show it on his face.

“Of course, Mister Su. A billion as promised. I can make the payment right away.” “Sure.” Su Ping nodded casually. As common people would see it, selling the fruit for money was a very bad trade. If the fruit couldn’t be used, it could be exchanged for other treasures.

To Su Ping, however, earning extra cash was more crucial to the shop. Whereas titled battle pet warriors didn’t usually require money on a daily basis, he needed a lot of it.
