Chapter 41: Episode 5.6 Test Day

Thus, the day of confirmation came. Shen Yuan’s awakener test was scheduled later into the day to give way for the regular test conducted for the younger new awakeners.

But that didn’t lessen the hype for today’s event because right after the regular tests were done, the arena of the City B Hunter Association became hot pot of media people, ready to set up their cameras and pick the best position to feature the show that Shen Yuan was about to do.

Even representatives from various guilds and prominent families are present.

The anticipation was almost comparable to a prestigious award show, one must admit.

And everyone is present to see if they will witness the birth of an S-Class awakener or attention-seeking phony.

At precisely two in the afternoon, a sleek black armored car with the symbol of a roaring tiger stopped in front of the arena. In an instant, the reporters lying in wait at the entrance jumped up to approach the car.

But they maintained a proper distance since they all felt the tremendous aura coming from the car.

"Ah, the car feels stuffy! I have wanted to stretch my body so badly since earlier!" A nonchalant voice suddenly sounded the moment the car door opened.

And with his long, slender legs first, a platinum-haired omega came out a smug and confident smile.

"Shen Yuan has arrived!" The reporters exclaimed, and the crowd boiled.

"Shen Yuan! What preparations did you make for the Awakener Test? Is that the reason for your inactivity on social media?"

"Shen Yuan! Will you still work as a model after this?"

"Shen Yuan! Are you going to join your husband’s Baihu Guild? What are your plans once the test is done?"

"Shen Yuan! Please look here! Your shirt and coat looked gorgeous. Who is the designer for your outfit today’s outfit?"

The questions fell one after another, leaving Shen Yuan speechless. He almost forgot that he was famous because of the sweet taste of peace and comfort he felt with his new family.

But he is a fox spirit who knows how to use his charms, so he quickly picked himself up and flashed a flattering smile.

A car opening and closing sounded behind him, and a smell of lavender gently wafted his sensitive nose.

"Bai Tingfeng is also here— and their son?!"

Right after that, the camera shutters became more rapid and louder.

This is the first public appearance of the Bai-Shen power couple; naturally, they need to snap pictures!

Shen Yuan felt the tall alpha male standing beside him, so he looked over and concernedly checked on Yanyan, who was being held by the alpha.

The child is wearing a ball cap and kiddie face mask to protect his identity, as he and Bai Tingfeng agreed.

Actually, they initially wanted to leave the child at home and let him watch via TV, but the little boy is adamant about cheering Shen Yuan up personally.

So, after a long talk and negotiation between the father and son, they devised a compromise.

"Is Yanyan okay with all the brothers who are holding cameras?" Shen Yuan scooted closer to Bai Tingfeng to touch the boy’s nose playfully.

Yanyan looked first at the energetic crowd, then nodded his little head vigorously.

"Yes, Yanyan doesn’t mind their sparkles. Papa and Daddy are here. But is it okay with Daddy?"

Shen Yuan planted a kiss on Yanyan’s forehead. "I am not. This is how Daddy lived his life." Spirit realm is much brighter than the flashes of camera, baby.

"Let’s enter the arena. You will still have to change your clothes," Bai Tingfeng leaned in to whisper to Shen Yuan.

The proximity of the alpha and omega are so close that it looks like they are almost kissing.

"Shit! Press that camera hard! This is a hot love between two S-Class!"

And the camera clicks became loud and continuous.

Bai Tingfeng snappily draws distance from Shen Yuan, the tips of his ears a little pink. "Ehem! Let’s go!"

The family of three started to move forward in the center of the enthusiastic press. However, they only reached halfway when someone from the crowd yelled.

"Shen Yuan! Do you believe that an omega can become an S-Class?"

It was only a single-line question among the others, but this made Shen Yuan stop in his tracks.

Seriously, he never understood the logic behind these demeaning words towards him being an omega. Shen Yuan researched a lot during his free time and learned about the genders in this world. While omegas are physically inferior to betas and alphas, that doesn’t mean they lag behind in society. They could be bosses of their businesses and be competent hunters and agents if they want.

So what’s the deal with him being one?

The celestial fox spirit pondered hard and deep for an answer and thought of one when looking at the mirror.

The original Shen Yuan lived using his face, body, and charms. He was covered in the glitz and glamour of the fashion industry, a very sheltered lifestyle behind the camera. It was completely different from the other S-Class awakeners who lived dangerously; therefore, he was constantly viewed as the fashion model who got lucky by people who had never met him personally and/or looked down on omegas in general.

But these people overlooked something. He kicked asses during the Yanyan’s kidnapping incident, and he is someone who doesn’t bat an eyelid when incinerating a person.

Suki is a celestial fox spirit. A being who could do good and evil things at will if he wanted.

Clack. Clack. Clack.

Shen Yuan marched his way towards the person who voiced that out. It was a nicely dressed beta male with obnoxious sharp eyes and thick-rimmed glasses. He visually strikes like a nerd but a nerd with an insufferable attitude.

The male reporter looked smug and confident that Shen Yuan would not dare to do things to him, especially since cameras were everywhere. No one would care if his mouth misbehaved a little; in fact, his fellow journalists would thank him if he solicited a big reaction from Shen Yuan. Controversy is their bread and butter.

"Who are you, and what news company are you from?" Shen Yuan’s confident voice rang.

"I am Zhang Guangli from Wuxia Inquirer," replied the smug reporter. He felt insurmountable pride when he managed to stop Shen Yuan, and now his name was being asked by this elite omega.

Shen Yuan flashed a wide smile until his fox-shaped eyes formed thin lines. A seemingly harmless smile, but Bai Tingfeng, who knew about the omega well, knows that behind that sunny face harbors his ruthless and fiery temper.

"Great!" exclaims the omega. He then turned to the crowd. "Listen up, journalist brother. If you have any questions, then I encourage you to attend the press conference later after the test. Not that I think that any of you are interested in my plans, but if in case you want to hear my side of the truth, then you are free to go."

"Shen Yuan, you say that you have plans for the future. Does that mean you are confident that you are a legit S-Class awakener? Will you use this to skyrocket your fame as a model?"

Shen Yuan pressed the urge to claw the face of the obnoxious reporter, Zhang Guangli.

"That and other things will be covered in the press conference, so you can wait until tomorrow to know my answer." Shen Yuan closed his distance to the barricade while maintaining piercing eye contact with the reporter.

"Why tomorrow? Didn’t you say earlier that you will conduct the interview after the test? Will you postpone it for a day to prepare a script?"

A malicious question, one after another, only an idiot will think those questions are professional. And the dashing alpha in a tuxedo and the five-year-old boy in his arms is not an idiot.

Bai Tingfeng took heavy steps to aid his husband, "Hey!"

"Daddy, he’s a bad guy!"

But Shen Yuan quickly raised his hand to make them stop.

"Who told you you will be invited, Zhang Guangli from Wuxia Inquirer?" Shen Yuan flashed the most blinding and beautiful smile that he could do. "I am declaring in front of the unbiased and dutiful journalists present here that I will never respond to a poisonous journalist like you, nor will I be entertaining a biased and malicious new company like the one who hired you."

In an instant, everyone turned silent, and not even the camera shutter was heard. All journalists were silently recording Shen Yuan’s face.

This is a drama that they are waiting for!

Shen Yuan continued with a little smile, "Read my lips, everyone. We are living in a perilous world, and we can’t afford to be blindsided by these vicious fake news peddlers who are making money by painting everything in their bad angle. They have no integrity. Thus, I have no desire to be around such people."

From start to end, Shen Yuan’s voice didn’t falter. It was like a clear sound from a brook, pleasing yet unstoppable. Add to that that the omega with the fairest face spoke and maintained a smile. The fox’s charm captivated the crowd.

Shen Yuan respectfully bid goodbye to the silent press after saying his peace.

Little did he know, his little son threw an angry look at the reporter that he just banned and stuck his mouth out through the face mask.

"Bad guy begone!" Yanyan silently said in his head.
