Complete Martial Arts Attributes

Following Sinclamon’s departure, some council members began gloating and started talking.

“Turns out that there is a legacy mark!”

“If there’s a legacy mark, then there’s nothing to question.”

“He should have taken it out sooner! He’s just playing with others!”

“Cao Guan and Sinclamon even wanted to take the baron’s seal away from his hands. This brat is really evil.”

…

Hearing those words, Cao Guan couldn’t stay any longer. His face turned pale, and he glared at Wang Teng. At this moment, he was suffering torment like a cat on hot bricks. However, he didn’t have the same status as Sinclamon and didn’t dare to leave on his own.

“Wang Teng, there is no problem with your identity as an inheritor. However, to inherit the title of baron, you will still need to pass the Consultation Chamber’s assessment.” The head of the council opened his mouth again.

“Assessment?” Wang Teng frowned.

“That’s right. Everyone who is inheriting the baron title must go through an assessment. This is a rule of the empire. Those who are not virtuous or lack potential would be unable to inherit the title,” the head of the council explained.

Wang Teng nodded and asked, “When will I take the assessment?”

“Don’t worry. After discussing the assessment, we’ll inform you about the contents of the assessment later.” The head of the council continued, “Moreover, we will have to wait for Cao Hongtu, the temporary holder of the title, to return. He has made many contributions over the years, and we cannot just erase them.”

Wang Teng frowned again. He always felt that this matter wasn’t that simple. However, judging from the head of the council’s tune, it was obvious that this matter wouldn’t be resolved by just words.

...... “Go back and wait for our news,” the head of the council said.

The meeting was over, and the council members got up after one another, leaving the hall.

Wang Teng had no choice. He had done what he could. Now, this matter would depend on how the assessment would be arranged and what would happen to Cao Hongtu.

“I didn’t expect Cao Hongtu to do so many things over the years. Looks like he really worked hard,” Round Ball commented.

“I’m afraid that man would be much more difficult to deal with than his useless son,” Wang Teng replied.

“Hmph, back then, I knew he was a scheming man, but Master Nangong didn’t believe me.” Round Ball complained in anger.

“There no use talking about it now,” Wang Teng said helplessly. “Let’s go back and wait for the result.”

“Okay. But don’t worry, I accompanied Master Nangong when he took the assessment. It shouldn’t be a difficult thing for you.” Round Ball assured him.

They had already walked out of the Noble Family Consultation Chamber. However, when Wang Teng passed the stone tablet by the entrance, he realized that Cao Guan was waiting for him outside.

“I can give you money. Leave the city and the empire. Low-class martial warriors like you just want resources. My family can afford it.” Cao Guan stopped Wang Teng. He sounded like he was doing charity.

Wang Teng turned and looked at him. He then laughed out loud, replying with contempt, “No, you can’t afford it.”

His eyes and smile triggered Cao Guan.

“If you could afford it, you wouldn’t be eyeing the baron’s title.” Wang Teng added fuel to fire.

“There are some things that you can’t touch. Do you think the consultation chamber is a reasonable place? If you think you can inherit the baron’s title by going through the noble families, you are too naive. Even if you became a baron, it wouldn’t take long for someone to kill a planetary-stage warrior like you.” Cao Guan gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

“Are you threatening me?” Wang Teng narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Cao Guan.

“Threat? No, it’s a piece of advice.” Cao Guan thought Wang Teng was afraid and smiled proudly. He then extended his arm to pat his shoulder.

However, Wang Teng avoided him and suddenly exclaimed, “What? You’re thinking of getting your father Cao Hongtu to kill me and the Parkers family to flout the laws of the empire to secretly offer a reward for my head. How can the Cao family be so vicious! Your father and I are Baron Nangong’s inheritors. I didn’t expect your father to be such a ruthless man.”

“F**k!” Cao Guan’s face turned pale, and he burst out in anger, “I didn’t. You’re spouting nonsense. You’re slandering me!”

“You did. You did. Can you swear it on your family’s lives that you didn’t threaten me?” Wang Teng was pushing him to the edge.

“I…” Cao Guan’s face turned dark.

He did threaten Wang Teng, but not to that extent!

He didn’t say that he would get his father to kill Wang Teng. He also didn’t say that he was getting the Parkers family to offer a reward for Wang Teng’s head. No matter how daring he was, he would never speak of the Parkers family.

It was all fabrication!

False accusations!

There were still many council members who hadn’t left. Hearing their voices, they looked over and shook their heads.

Cao Hongtu’s dumb son was obviously not Wang Teng’s match!

Assassinations were supposed to be done secretly and silently. He was threatening him in front of the Noble Family Consultation Chamber. What an idiot.

Now that Wang Teng brought that up, even if the Parkers wanted to do something, they would have to weigh the consequences. Otherwise, when he was assassinated, they would have to take the blame, whether or not it was done by them.

If Sinclamon knew about Cao Guan’s idiotic behavior, he would probably want to kill him on the spot.

Wang Teng ignored Cao Guan and called for a rune energy flying car. He then flew away into the sky, leaving Cao Guan behind.

“Bastard!” Cao Guan gritted his teeth.

Back to Fan Taining’s home.

“Master Wang Teng, you’re back!” Fan Taining immediately welcomed him. He already knew that Wang Teng had visited the Noble Family Consultation Chamber. Things like that could not be kept secret. The news would spread quickly.

“Are you alright?” he asked worriedly.

He knew that Baron Nangong’s matter was fishy, and there were probably many families involved. Otherwise, Cao Hongtu would not be able to take the title of the baron. After all, Baron Nangong didn’t leave a will behind. Given that, he shouldn’t be able to inherit the title.

“It’s nothing much. Everything went quite well,” Wang Teng responded casually as if nothing dangerous had happened in the meeting.

Fan Taining was surprised. Inheriting titles had never gone smooth. However, Wang Teng was so relaxed. Did he have a trump card up his sleeves?

“Master Wang Teng, are you really Baron Nangong’s inheritor?” he brought Wang Teng into the house and couldn’t help asking.

“Indeed, the news will spread soon.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Then you will have to be careful of Cao Hongtu and his family. I heard that he is a vengeful person,” Fan Taining looked around and whispered.
