"Can age measure cultivation base for martial artists? Lots of martial artists younger than you with superior cultivation bases!" Hua Longting glanced at Du Yuntian and replied calmly.
Criticized by the person whom he admired most, Du Yuntian kept silent in embarrassment.
Hua Longting placated him and paused, "Even I can't equal him."
Du Yuntian was disappointed and could not accept the words.
He admired Hua Longting who entered the Houtian stage at young age and would reach its peak soon, for his cultivation base as well as personality. In his mind, Hua Longting was a peerless figure. How could he accept that Hua Longting's admission of his inferiority?
"Chief, you…you're kidding?" He murmured.
Shi Wenqing was also startled, surprise glinting in his eyes.
Hua Longting smiled to Shi Wenqing, "You told us Qin Dong was attacked by Xi Feiyang and Wei Gujian and he almost lost his life. I suppose he cheated you."
"Cheat?" He was increasingly astonished.
Hua Longting nodded and grinned, "How can a dying man recover over one night?"
"Perhaps…the master of Clan Qin and the four sect elders are marvelous…"
Hua Longting shook hands before Shi Wenqing finished his words, "Impossible! Qin Zongheng can be counted as a top martial artist. But as far as I'm concerned, he only reaches the mid level of the Xiantian stage. He isn't the god and can't bring life back to a dying man over one night."
He continued when seeing the doubt in Shi Wenqing's eyes, "We were absent yesterday. But today, everyone is present. Who dares to say you can't be injured if Liu Qishan hits you with a powerful palm? I can't."
Everybody was silent. Du Yuntian's doubt subsided. As the shallow example was illustrated, Qin Dong's cultivation base outdid theirs.
Zhou Xiang glimpsed at Shi Wenqing and mumbled, "How did you know Qin Dong?"
He paused, "He's my sister's classmate and also a student of Senior Grade 3 of the senior high school attached to Longyuan University."
"Senior high school attached to Longyuan University?" Du Yuntian's eyes sparkled.
Shi Wenqing nodded, "Yes, what's up?"
Hua Longting chuckled, "Wonderful! Du Yuntian, Zhou Xiang and I are going to graduate. We worry about where to find a successor. Qin Dong can take the charge of the regiment after his enrollment. I'm afraid Tianwu College will never defeat us! Ha…ha…"
This explanation also cheered Shi Wenqing.
"Chief, Ma Jinpeng hasn't been released yet. Will Tianwu College let him go?" Wu Xiong asked worriedly.
Hua Longting replied in confidence, "Don't worry! Situ Qi is not foolish. She can also see through what happened. Don't you find she is polite to Qin Dong today? She has to take him into consideration even not for our sake. Tianwu College is in grave difficulties. If they rile up Qin Dong, I suppose they'll suffer a lot!"
Hua Longting was diplomatic and others were convinced by him.
Zhou Xiang burst in laughter as if recalling something, "Chief, three of the official members of Tianwu College have been wounded. I think we'll win this time."
The others were also delighted to hear that. Advantageous, seven martial artists would defeat five of Tianwu Colloege if no accident happened.
As his looks flicked from the faces of the subordinates, Hua Longting whispered, "We're happy for the victory too early. Situ Qi won't give in easily. Who knows what tricks she will play before the competition? We need to dedicate ourselves to the competition and never relax, even though the rival has been attacked seriously. If we can win the competition, a solid foundation will be laid for our successor."
He was admired by other members of the regiment for his far-sight.
"Shi Wenqing, Qin Dong is familiar to you. Can you find a chance and introduce me to him?" Hua Longting said in deep thought after droving others to practice.
