Complete Martial Arts Attributes Novel - Chapter 1606
1606 Return to Planet Yuming! (1)
Yulan Galaxy.
Planet Yuming—spacecraft docking port.
The planet’s governor, Zhuang Weize, was patiently waiting at the dock with the other dignitaries.
Wu Xingyun, Old Han, Commander Hong, and the other people from Earth were also waiting by the side.
The appearance of that group was attracting much attention.
“Who are they? Their auras are so powerful!”
“They must be heaven stage warriors.”
“I think the man in the lead is planet Yuming’s governor… Is that Zhuang Weize?”
“Ah… Governor Zhuang!”
“I once had the honor of meeting the governor. Indeed, that is him; the ones next to him are the higher ups from the planet.”
“I see a few family heads from the elite families. Those are all powerful figures!”
“They rarely make public appearances. Why are they all here today?”
“They seemed to be waiting for someone.”
“Could it be…”
“Baron Wang Teng!”
“The League of Talents has already ended, so our overlord must be returning!”
“What Baron Wang Teng? He’s an earl now!”
“Right, Earl Wang Teng!”
…
Zhuang Weize was planet Yuming’s governor and head of the Zhuang family, so almost everyone knew him. Furthermore, the rest of the bigwigs were also present; many recognized him at a glance.
If all of those big names had shown up to greet someone, the latter had to be an important figure.
Such a setting made most of the ones present quickly think of the Yulan Galaxy’s overlord.
Many among the citizens had learned who Wang Teng was after the League of Talents ended.
Everyone on planet Yuming, or rather the whole galaxy was familiar with the hero.
After all, he was their overlord, who won first place in the grandest competition and entered the Star Rankings. It was a great honor for the whole Yulan Galaxy.
Everyone felt proud of their sovereign. Whenever they met people from other parts of the universe and talked about the League of Talents, they would feel proud of their own galaxy.
The Great Qian Empire had also announced the rise in Wang Teng’s noble status. Thus, many people knew about his change in status.
This news caused a huge uproar.
It had been many years since a baron was directly bestowed the title of earl.
It was impossible to jump two levels, unless there was an accumulation of great military exploits or other achievements in the empire.
However, everyone was convinced by Wang Teng’s performance during the competition. Such conferment wasn’t excessive.
Besides their overlord, no one was worth such grand reception.
…
Zhuang Weize smiled and consoled the people next to him, “Brother Wu, Brother Han, don’t be so impatient. Earl Wang Teng should be here soon.”
The governor was a heaven stage warrior, and much older than Wu Xingyun and Old Han.
They could be considered old on Earth, but their age was practically negligible when seen from the scope of the whole universe.
Their lifespans would increase once the planetary stage was reached; a hundred years of age was just a starting point for them.
Zhuang Weize treated them politely because of Wang Teng. Mind you, he was a heaven stage martial warrior.
He treated them with respect since they were from the hero’s birth place.
“Look at us. We’re a little impatient because we haven’t seen him in a while,” Old Han replied with a smile.
“I understand.” The governor smiled. “You’re Wang Teng’s elder and had the chance to watch him grow. Of course you’d be excited after knowing of his achievements in the League of Talents.”
“You’re too polite. We’re not his elders; we just came from the same planet and feel proud of everything he has achieved,” Old Han said.
“That’s right. I didn’t expect such talent to emerge from our planet. We feel proud of him,” Wu Xingyun added.
Wang Teng’s status was now entirely different. None of them dared to act arrogantly, especially when in front of outsiders, as they could unknowingly cause trouble for the hero.
“How enviable. Indeed, your planet is special; not only did it groom a peerless genius like Earl Wang, all of you are talented. Your abilities rose fairly quickly.” Zhuang Weize smiled as he gave everyone a meaningful glance.
“You’re too kind. Our abilities and talents are insignificant in the overall scope of the universe,” Wu Xingyun replied humbly. He was a little stunned.
They had already been extremely careful, hiding their true abilities well. They had gone through many experiences and started their journey with humble beginnings. Naturally, they understood the importance of hiding their strength.
Still, they couldn’t escape the eyes of a heaven stage warrior, no matter how they hid.
The governor replied with a smile. He didn’t mean any harm, and was only being emotional because he saw how they slowly became more powerful.
He too approved of their cautious attitude. Who knows? Many formidable warriors could emerge from amongst that bunch of earthlings.
They would have more room to grow if the newly appointed earl supported them. They weren’t like some of the warriors hailing from underdeveloped planets and had no background, who would find it extremely difficult to step into the universe and possibly even die without knowing what happened.
