363: Am I already so famous?

The stir Wang Chen caused in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, and the impact it brought, were far greater than he had imagined.

Three Heavenly Dao notifications had brought him into the sight of high-level officials in various countries, and although for various reasons, this matter was not widely publicized, it only circulated among the true powerhouses.

However, the fact that he, with his Rank 3 strength, swept through the First-Year Field at Dawn Fortress, killed Takizawa Hideaki in a death match, and intimidated countless Geniuses from daring to step onto the stage, directly ignited the entire Blue Star with the publicity from numerous spectators.

The changes outside were still unknown for the time being, but at Blazing Dragon University, as soon as Principal Yang and others heard that Wang Chen was returning from Dawn Fortress, they immediately prepared a grand welcoming ceremony.

Wang Chen was no longer just a freshman who had just enrolled; he had already become the face of Blazing Dragon University.

Although his strength was still weak, his future prospects were limitless.

Blazing Dragon University naturally spared no effort to stand by him and show everyone their support for Wang Chen.

At this moment, in the teleportation hall, in addition to the high-level officials and students of Blazing Dragon University, there were also numerous reporters and news personnel.

They carried their cameras, staring intently at the central teleportation array, wanting to capture first-hand news.

Just then, light shone on the teleportation array, and a figure emerged from it. Seeing this, a commotion broke out among the crowd, and many people's eyes lit up.

“Oh my goodness! Is this Wang Chen?”

“He’s indeed as handsome as the rumors say. With his looks, even if he can’t become a Awakener, he could become a big star!”

“He’s so handsome! I feel like he completely fits my aesthetic!”

“…”

Looking at the tall young man who appeared in the teleportation array, exclamations immediately erupted among the reporters.

Click, click, click!

The flashes of the cameras kept flickering.

“What the?”

Wang Chen had just recovered from the dizziness of the teleportation and was dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

No?

I probably didn’t go to the wrong place, did I?

Feeling the noisy atmosphere around him and those gazes that seemed to “devour” people, Wang Chen instinctively took a step back and looked at the ground beneath his feet.

That’s right!

This is the Blazing Dragon University Teleportation Hall!

What’s the situation with these monsters?

After confirming his location, Wang Chen was even more bewildered!

“What are you still standing there for? Come down quickly.”

Just then, a familiar voice sounded in Wang Chen’s ear.

He turned his head and saw Master Lin Feng waving at him with a smile on his face.

“Master? This is?”

Walking next to his Master, Wang Chen asked, confused.

“Silly boy, of course, we’re here to welcome you!”

“You, boy, are now the pride of our Blazing Dragon University. Don’t be so reserved; be a bit more uninhibited.”

Lin Feng pulled Wang Chen to his side and said with a beaming smile.

As he spoke, he even shot a glance at Yang Zixiong, who was beside him, his pride completely undisguised.

“Ah?”

Wang Chen was stunned by the words and looked around in disbelief.

Good heavens!

Do I have such a big entourage now?

To return to school and even have a special welcoming ceremony prepared?

“Master, isn’t this a bit too… high-profile?”

Scratching his head, Wang Chen asked somewhat awkwardly.

Although the feeling of showing off in front of others was great, those gazes around him that seemed to “devour” people also sent shivers down his spine.

Too unreserved!

“How is this high-profile?”

“If you ask me, we should have activated the Divine Artifact that guards the school and created ten miles of auspicious clouds, letting you walk over little by little, accepting everyone’s attention.”

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng shook his head upon hearing this, still dissatisfied that the current welcoming ceremony was too small-scale.

Wang Chen immediately felt a bit embarrassed.

“Don’t listen to his nonsense!”

Yang Zixiong finally found his sense of presence at this moment, squeezing into the middle of the happily chatting Master and disciple.

“Wang Chen, what you did in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield has elevated the prestige of our Blazing Dragon University to a new level. You are a great hero of our school!”

Yang Zixiong looked at Wang Chen, whose face still carried a hint of youthfulness, with shock in his eyes.

The last time they met, he had only regarded Wang Chen as a junior with outstanding talent and astonishing potential. Even though the other party had already shown world-shaking potential, he still carried the arrogance of an old powerhouse.

But now, after a trip out, Wang Chen had directly stirred up the situation in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, and his status had undergone a world-shattering change.

This made it so that he could only face him with an equal attitude now.

“Principal Yang, you are too kind. This is all what I should do.”

Seeing Principal Yang greet him with a smile, Wang Chen quickly said politely, his posture quite respectful.

The other party was not only a leader of the school but also his Master's good friend, so he could not be impolite, both emotionally and logically.

“Hahahahaha!”

“Good!”

“Well said!”

Yang Zixiong laughed heartily at the words, and his gaze towards Wang Chen became even more satisfied.

This kid is much better than Lin Feng, that rotten friend!

Next, Wang Chen greeted the school leaders one by one, then dealt with the surrounding reporters for a while, and then was escorted into the school.

...

...

In the office.

“Phew!”

“Master, I feel like this short while was more tiring than fighting a battle!”

Wang Chen slumped on the sofa and complained to his Master.

“Hahaha!”

“You’ll get used to it, kid.”

“This time, it’s just Old Yang wanting to show off; otherwise, this welcoming ceremony wouldn’t have been held at all.”

Across from him, Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh when he saw Wang Chen's appearance.

“Hey, hey, hey!”

“Old Lin, you’re being a bit shameless!”

Yang Zixiong, who remained in the office, immediately became displeased:

“I just made a suggestion. It was clearly you, old fellow, who was jumping up and down insisting on making it so grand. Now that it’s over, are you trying to abandon me after using me?”

Glaring fiercely at Lin Feng, Yang Zixiong rolled up his sleeves, looking as if he was ready to fight if they disagreed.

Beside them, Wang Chen saw this scene and quickly straightened his face, not letting himself laugh.

Although Master and Principal Yang bickered, their relationship was quite strong.

Wang Chen had heard from his Senior Brother when he was at Dawn Fortress that back in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, Master and Principal Yang were members of the same team, comrades in life and death who could entrust their backs to each other.

That year, when they entered the Blood Clan World, if Principal Yang hadn't led people to desperately meet them, Master might have died at the hands of the Blood Clan.

“What an enviable friendship!”

“Should I also look for some teammates?”

Wang Chen thought with some envy in his heart.

With his current strength, continuing to stay on Blue Star and at school would not bring much improvement. After this Global Prodigy Competition, he should head to Dawn Fortress.

Once there, continuing to act as a lone wolf like he did now would not work.
