Chapter 176: Chapter 169: A Good Dog Doesn’t Stand in the Way

Brother Bai sure speaks and acts with refreshing directness, not following any set pattern at all!

"Cough cough!"

Boss Wang choked on Bai Yan’s words, coughing with a rather awkward expression: "Brother Bai really speaks plainly. The fifth level of Flame Palm holds strong power, incorporating the flame attribute in both attack and defense, indeed making it a formidable Dual Abilities."

"And this equipment dummy was crafted by the Abnormal People Organization with special materials. It can withstand a ton of force head-on without breaking. His ability to crack this dummy proves that his strength truly cannot be underestimated."

Boss Wang’s words carried praise, it seemed he had high hopes for Liu Penti.

Bai Yan just chuckled and kept silent.

Bai Yan simply wanted to get this pointless appraisal over with and move on to his own matters.

Not far away, Yan Qing returned with Liu Penti, who had just finished his appraisal.

"B+ grade, a whole major level higher than the previous C grade, quite good indeed. Take this form to the office later, and someone will give you an upgraded card."

Yan Qing was swiftly writing on the paper, then she handed the form to Liu Penti.

This grading isn’t just based on the Abnormal’s strength but also considers comprehensive data such as Talent and potential.

Liu Penti took the card, looking quite proud as he said: "Qing... Yan Qing, are you free tonight? How about we have dinner together? I’ve booked a table at the Sheraton Hotel. Join me to celebrate my breakthrough in martial prowess, how about that?"

"No thanks, I’ve got other things to do."

Yan Qing politely declined, and just as Liu Penti was about to say more, Bai Yan stood up and said indifferently: "Miss Yan, may I proceed with the appraisal?"

"Yes, you may."

Yan Qing smiled politely, whereas Liu Penti frowned and said sharply: "Could you not wait for a while? A newbie Abnormal, why so much fuss! Go find someone else to do your appraisal!"

Bai Yan’s previous concession was undoubtedly seen by Liu Penti as a sign of weakness. Now, still basking in the flattery and praise from everyone, Young Master Liu saw ordinary peers like Bai Yan with innate disdain and annoyance.

"I need an appraisal, please step aside."

Bai Yan looked calmly at Liu Penti.

"Hey, you’re a gutsy kid, aren’t you? Can’t you see Yan Qing is busy? I told you to go find someone else for appraisal, didn’t you hear?"

Liu Penti was taken aback, looking down on Bai Yan with a challenging demeanor and a somewhat amused expression. It was rare for someone to talk back to him like that, especially a new Abnormal.

"I’ll say it again, my time is limited, good dogs don’t block the path."

Bai Yan’s expression grew colder. Because you want to flirt, I should go get assessed by someone else?

What a joke, I, Bai Yan, have always been the one giving orders, never being bossed around!

Bai Yan’s earlier yielding was out of respect for Boss Wang, but that didn’t mean he would endure it repeatedly from this so-called Dual Abilities genius!

"How dare you speak to Young Master Liu like that!"

"Do you realize who you’re standing in front of? He’s Young Master Liu of the Liu Family Martial Arts Sect! Are you tired of living, kid?"

"What a bumpkin, I bet he’s never even heard of the Liu Family Martial Arts Sect."

Before Liu Penti could speak, the men and women behind him were already displeased, hurling scorn and satire, as if eager to take Liu Penti’s place in teaching Bai Yan a lesson.

This brat is too arrogant, daring to call Young Master Liu a dog – does he mean they are all lackeys like dogs too?

"Kid, have the guts to repeat what you just said!"

Liu Penti’s narrow eyes glinted with anger; he was furious.

Bai Yan sneered. What, you want to fight?

Do you think you have enough lives to spare?

Before Bai Yan could speak, Yan Qing, fearing Bai Yan would be at a disadvantage, quickly glared at Liu Penti: "Young Master Liu, drop the high-and-mighty act! He still needs to be appraised, is it worth it to squabble with a new Abnormal?"

"You ask him, what the fu*k did this kid just curse at me!"

Liu Penti growled, his face twisted with ferocity.

Only Bai Yan had the guts to insult the Young Master of Liu Family Martial Arts in HZ City!

"Annoying! If I called you a dog, what can you do about it?"

Bai Yan’s expression was extremely cold. If it weren’t for this being the Abnormal People Organization’s premises, if Mr. Bai hadn’t repeatedly reminded him to keep his temper in check before his arrival, Bai Yan would have already taught this so-called Young Master a lesson.

"You! You!"

Liu Penti trembled with rage, his eyes bloodshot. He pointed at Bai Yan, wishing he could kill this ignorant newcomer on the spot.

"Enough, both of you quiet down a bit!"

Yan Qing glared at him. She was very displeased with Liu Penti’s attitude and also slightly annoyed by Bai Yan’s tone. You are a new Abnormal, why provoke Liu Penti for no reason!

Yan Qing sighed and said to Bai Yan, "Mr. Bai Yan, come with me for the assessment first and leave as soon as you’re done."

Her words were well-intentioned; she didn’t want Bai Yan to provoke a grudge from Liu Penti, as Young Master Liu was known for his vindictiveness.

"Alright."

Bai Yan glanced at the angry Liu Penti and calmly followed Yan Qing.

Liu Penti stared intently at Bai Yan’s figure, then suddenly laughed, "Bai Yan, is it? I hope you understand one thing: there are some people you simply cannot afford to offend! After your assessment is over and you receive your rating, maybe then you will feel the disparity between us."

"Let me give you some advice! You and I, we’re not from the same world! Once your assessment is over you’ll understand the gap between you and me."

Liu Penti said with a cold laugh, his tone filled with pride and disdain.

How could a mere new Abnormal be compared to the Young Master of the Liu Family Martial Arts?

Soon, this arrogant kid named Bai Yan will realize his insignificance and his past arrogance, and he will pay a heavy price for it!

The men and women behind Liu Penti chuckled derisively, everyone thinking Bai Yan was doomed since he was now on Liu Penti’s blacklist.

Bai Yan sighed. He felt like he was about to lose his patience and really wanted to beat this kid up.

Yan Qing quietly tugged Bai Yan’s sleeve, trying to defuse the verbal conflict between the two. In her view, it was clear that Bai Yan, the new Abnormal, was at a disadvantage in a head-on clash with Liu Penti.

Boss Wang was watching the scene with a smile, stroking his chin and murmuring to himself. It seemed that Miss Yan was quite protective of Brother Bai.

"Mr. Bai Yan, what is your Ability? Special type? Offensive type? Or supportive type?"

Yan Qing pulled a piece of paper from her folder and, in a business-like manner, asked Bai Yan, ready to take notes on his details.

"Ability? I’m not sure what type my ability falls under."

Bai Yan touched his nose and smiled helplessly.

What Bai Yan said was the truth; he had too many abilities. Depending on which Demon he was enhanced by, Bai Yan could have different powers, so he truly did not know how to categorize his abilities.

Yan Qing was slightly taken aback by his response, then smiled and said, "It seems Mr. Bai doesn’t really understand his own abilities, no matter, let’s try them out slowly. With so many devices here, we will surely help Mr. Bai figure out exactly what his abilities are."

Bai Yan’s answer could easily give people the impression he was a clueless newcomer who didn’t even understand how to activate and control his own Abilities.

Yan Qing had a good attitude and was very thorough in her considerations, showing no disdain for Bai Yan whatsoever.

But a series of sneering laughter came from behind Bai Yan: "Really just a fledgling, not even knowing what his own Ability is, how pitiful."

The voice belonged to Liu Penti.

The men and women behind Liu Penti joined in, mocking Bai Yan, "Young Master Liu is right, this guy really does seem like a fledgling!"

"Yeah, this poor kid doesn’t even know what his Abilities are. He must be an unschooled Abnormal, right?"

"Ha, unschooled, all I can say is, haha. He is worlds apart from our Liu Family Martial Arts Sect."

"What do you think he’ll score this time?"

"I’m guessing E?"

"Dude, I think you’re giving him too much credit! I bet he won’t even get an F rating!"

The group openly ridiculed Bai Yan, their voices loud enough that many other Abnormals undergoing assessment turned to look at Bai Yan’s side, with even the staff casting curious glances.

Who is this unfamiliar youngster?

Could it be that he’s the newcomer that Young Master Liu mentioned as unworthy of an F-rank? That’s utterly pathetic!

Faced with curious, disdainful, and contemptuous looks and whispers, Bai Yan just smiled indifferently.

What did it matter if the world misunderstood him? No matter how much they said, it wouldn’t change the truth!

Whether I am a dragon or a worm, it’ll be clear soon enough!
