357: Thank you so much!

“Grandpa!”

“You… what do you mean?”

Inside the private room, Talia looked at her grandfather’s smiling Face, her heart skipping a beat, feeling an inexplicable sense of unease.

She felt that the old man was probably up to no good!

“Cough.”

“My dear granddaughter!”

Seeing the wariness on his granddaughter’s Face, Charles awkwardly cleared his throat:

“You see, you’re not young anymore. Although I, your grandpa, haven’t mentioned some things, I’ve always considered them of utmost importance.”

“What do you think of this boy, Wang Chen?”

“???”

Talia’s heroic brows furrowed, sensing that things were about to take a turn for the worse.

“He’s alright, quite handsome, and very strong. Although there’s still a bit of a gap between him and me, with his improvement speed, he’ll probably catch up very soon.”

“Grandpa, I need to go to the Eternal Forest and quickly improve myself. If I’m suppressed by this kid in the future, won’t I lose a lot of Face!”

Feeling puzzled, Talia carefully chose her words.

“That’s not necessarily true, you can also suppress him in the future.”

Charles said meaningfully, his old Face reddening after speaking.

“Hmm… hmm?”

Upon hearing this, Talia was about to nod, but then she reacted.

Grandpa, you’re acting strange!!

Whoosh!

Talia’s ears turned red with embarrassment, and faint white Qi even appeared on her forehead.

“I… Grandpa, I’m never talking to you again!”

Her voice still echoed in the private room, but she had already rushed out like the wind.

“Alas… don’t run!”

“You two should meet and get to know each other first!”

Seeing Talia flee in a flash, Charles slapped his thigh.

“This girl is good in every way, but why is she so thin-skinned?”

“She didn’t inherit any of my excellent talents as an old man!”

Charles stroked his chin, his expression a bit conflicted.

For a child’s matter, if he were to speak directly, would it be too undignified?

Thinking to himself, his gaze involuntarily fell on the side of Thirteen’s arena.

There, Bai Ziting and Wei Mingyuan were trembling with excitement.

“Hmph, last time in the Eternal Forest, I, an old man, still contributed. Yang Daoming, that shameless old man, dared to conceal my Credit, these two young fellows certainly don’t have the guts.”

“It’s decided, I’ll use them as the Breakthrough point.”

Charles clapped his hands, feeling that the idea he came up with was excellent.

At this moment, Bai Ziting and Wei Mingyuan, completely unaware that they had already been 'arranged', were staring intently at the teleportation array on Thirteen’s arena.

“Uncle Wei, what did I tell you?”

“You have to believe in my Junior Brother. If he says he’s confident he can kill Takizawa Hideaki, then he can definitely do it!”

Bai Ziting’s tone was incredibly excited. If he hadn’t considered his status, he would have shouted a few times in excitement.

Junior Brother is too amazing!

Today, he will probably trigger another Heavenly Dao announcement, further advancing his ranking on the Ten Thousand Realms Prodigy Ranking.

Beside him.

Wei Mingyuan glared at Bai Ziting disapprovingly, a smile he couldn’t hide on his Face.

“Stop acting innocent after gaining an advantage here!”

He was in an excellent mood at the moment and couldn’t be bothered to expose how worried Bai Ziting had been earlier.

“I’m telling you, for the next few days, you’re not allowed to take Wang Chen to fool around in the fortress.”

“And…”

“You’ve made quite a fortune today, kid. Go back and prepare some trump cards for Wang Chen.”

As he spoke, Wei Mingyuan’s tone became solemn.

The appearance of the Berserker Demon earlier had truly given him a huge fright.

As a veteran Rank 8 expert, his knowledge was naturally incomparable to that of the people present, not even Bai Ziting’s.

That Berserker Demon, in his opinion, had at least reached the Peak of a Great Demon, which is a top-tier Rank 8, just one step away from becoming a Demon Lord.

Although he didn’t know whether Takizawa Hideaki ultimately couldn’t maintain the Berserker Demon’s summon, or if Wang Chen used some other method to resolve this trouble.

Everything that happened today had sounded an alarm for Wei Mingyuan.

Among his peers, and even among the entire younger generation, Wang Chen had now completely distinguished himself, with his strength ranking among the top.

However, compared to others, his growth speed was too fast. While his strength had improved, other aspects remained undeniable shortcomings.

His own hard power was important, but the “soft power” that could save his life in critical moments was equally important.

“Don’t worry, Uncle Wei, I already have a target!”

Bai Ziting nodded upon hearing this, saying solemnly:

“Next time, such a thing will absolutely not happen!”

“That’s good.”

“…Wang Chen is out.”

Wei Mingyuan was about to say more, but at that moment, he suddenly turned to look at the arena.

Buzz buzz buzz!!

Lights flickered on the arena’s teleportation array, and a tall, slender figure emerged from it.

It was Wang Chen.

At this moment, he stood quietly on the arena, his body seemingly radiating boundless light, causing the entire First-Year Field to fall silent.

Everyone, at this moment, stared fixedly at him, their eyes filled with shock and reverence.

“Wang Chen!”

“Wang Chen!”

“Wang Chen!”

But soon, cheers like a mountain collapse and a tsunami erupted in the First-Year Field. All the spectators in the viewing stands involuntarily stood up, waving their hands towards Wang Chen.

They looked as if they were welcoming the return of a hero!

Of course, there were also some inappropriate voices mixed in.

“Wang Chen is awesome!”

“Wang Chen is mighty and domineering!”

“Wang Chen, I want to have your babies!”

“…”

Standing on the arena, Wang Chen listened to the audience’s cheers, his eyes both excited and thrilled.

This scene of being the center of attention, with countless people cheering for him, had once only appeared in dreams, but now it had become reality.

However…

“Have babies?”

Hearing that, Wang Chen couldn’t hold back, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

With his current strength, although the environment in the arena was chaotic, he could keenly perceive the location of every sound that rang out.

Turning his head to look in the direction of the sound, Wang Chen initially thought he would see an enthusiastic and uninhibited older sister, but instead…

A burly man with a full beard was excitedly roaring, and seemingly noticing his gaze, he even gesticulated wildly, excitedly tearing off his shirt to reveal his muscular chest.

Damn it!

Thank you very much!

Seeing this eye-watering scene, Wang Chen quickly averted his gaze, feeling completely unwell. He felt his Soul had been polluted.

“This world is truly too crazy!”

Thinking to himself, he waved to the enthusiastic audience and prepared to step off the arena.

However, just then…

“Wang Chen, give me back my grandson’s life!”

A thunderous voice resounded throughout the entire venue. Clouds churned in the calm sky, a strong wind arose, and an extremely oppressive aura suddenly appeared.

Under this aura, Wang Chen’s heart sank, and he looked up at the sky with a solemn expression.
