午夜想想爱

The middle-aged man felt he could finally breathe as they were getting closer and closer to the base city. He had been scared to a degree that he felt suffocated throughout the trip. The killing intent from that young man made the middle-aged man think he was with a vicious monster, constantly on the verge of being torn to pieces at any minute.

Su Ping told the Inferno Dragon to fly right ahead toward the wall.

He could already see the city name.

Longyang!

That was the top Class A base city!

The fame of the Longyang Base City was far-reaching; even people living in the remote areas by the continent’s border would have an inkling about the base city. People said that the base city was prosperous, filled with beautiful scenery. Many famous battle pet warriors had been born there.

It was said that many legendary battle pet warriors had originated from the Longyang Base City.

Many different forces were gathered there and they shared a complicated relationship. A brick could be thrown, killing some wealthy boys in one go.

Outside the base city.

Many people were driving into the base city. Some vehicles looked quite strange; they were like RVs, but heavily armed at the same time.

“State your identity!”

From the city wall came a titled battle pet warrior who stopped Su Ping. The presence of the Inferno Dragon had startled the titled guard a bit, but he was able to remain calm.

The Inferno Dragon was a rare kind and in any other base city; its presence would stir up a huge sensation. However, many powerful battle pet warriors were gathered there. The Inferno Dragon was not such a rare beast in those parts. “Su Ping, from Longjiang,” Su Ping said.

The titled battle pet warrior raised his eyebrows. “I am asking for your title, not your name. I haven’t heard it yet.

“Also, is this your first time in Longyang Base City? Say you’re a titled battle pet warrior, you are still not allowed to fly at a low altitude inside the base city; the noise will upset the residents. If you have to fly, do so beyond a two thousand meter altitude and the speed limit is 200m/second. You are way past that speed limit!” “I haven’t decided on a title yet. Call me the Boss if you must!” Su Ping frowned. “I’ll be mindful of the speed when I get inside. Now, step away if you have no other questions for me!” “Boss? What kind of title is that? I have never heard anything of the sort,” that titled battle pet warrior argued grumpily, “I think you must have reached the titled rank only recently. I don’t believe you don’t have a title yet. I cannot verify your identity if you do not tell me your title!” “I’ve already told you that I haven’t decided yet. If you cannot verify that, then just consider me as one who is not at the titled rank.”

“I cannot do that. You are. You’re not telling me your title. Are you some notorious wanted man? In any case, go to the line over there if you don’t think you should be treated as a titled battle pet warrior. Those below the titled rank are not allowed to fly into the base city.”

That titled battle pet warrior was not getting any friendlier; he thought that Su Ping was up to no good.

“Sir, I’m Mo Fengping from the Valiant Academy and this is the number of my entry pass. Could you please let us in?” The middle-aged man did not expect that they would be stopped at the city wall. It was unlikely for Su Ping to be a wanted man, since he was someone that even his teacher respected. Therefore, the middle-aged man decided to help.

“The Valiant Academy?”

The titled battle pet warrior looked calmer. “Let me find out.”

He typed the digits of Mo Fengping’s entry pass into his phone and the result was soon produced. He looked at Mo Fengping. “It is you, a teacher from the Valiant Academy. Mr. Mo, and this titled battle pet warrior is?”

“He’s my teacher’s friend.” Mo Fengping produced a forced smile.

“Your teacher’s friend?” The titled battle pet warrior was surprised. He saw the information related to Mo Fengping on his phone, public information. It said that Mo Fengping’s teacher was Han Yuxiang... the Vice Principal of the Valiant Academy!

Han Yuxiang was very famous among titled battle pet warriors. Han Yuxiang’s friend? The titled battle pet warrior changed his attitude toward Su Ping. “You are Su Ping? What is your title? I would like to know.”

“You are not worthy.”

Su Ping told the Inferno Dragon to fly into the city directly.

He didn’t like that titled battle pet warrior who seemed to be a wily old bird, a person eager to find trouble.

“What?” The titled battle pet warrior was startled. Su Ping didn’t show him any respect and he only came back to his senses when the Inferno Dragon flew away.

“What the hell? Su Ping, fine. I won’t forget that name. I dare you to come out of the city from here!” That titled battle pet warrior interspersed his talk with curses.

He had met his fair share of titled battle pet warriors.

Titled warriors were nothing in the Longyang Base City.

“That man is a titled battle pet warrior working in the military force of the base city, a member of the army group called the Dragon Oppressor. You shouldn’t have angered him,” Mo Fengping carefully cautioned Su Ping.

Su Ping was completely at ease. “Just another man on the street. He would be a dead man by now if you hadn’t jumped in when he tried to stop me again.” “Eh.” Mo Fengping was speechless. Su Ping was more vicious than he thought; he had also sensed the young man’s killing intent. He couldn’t figure out why his teacher knew such a cruel man.

“This is the Longyang Base City, quite unlike other base cities. The number of titled battle pet warriors living here is beyond calculation. All the Dragon Oppressor members are at the titled rank, and it’s said that there are more than 80 of them. You didn’t just upset one of them, but the whole 80 of them. Their connections are too... complicated.”

Mo Fengping was still worried because he was afraid that he and his teacher would be implicated.

“I said, nothing to worry about; it’s a thing in the past. Show me the way. I must get to the Valiant Academy,” Su Ping ordered coldly. Mo Fengping produced a forced smile. He wondered what gave Su Ping such confidence. He had to admit that Su Ping was not a weak person, but that base city was not the usual kind. The titled rank meant nothing.

Even his teacher would have to be careful with his relationships or else he would displease people who could make life difficult for him.

“That way. Go straight.” Mo Fengping pointed in a certain direction.

Su Ping told the Inferno Dragon to head over there.

Outside the Valiant Academy campus.

There was a massive stone arch by the campus, which stood over a transparent seal. Only people who wore the academy’s ID could move to and fro unimpeded. Dark dragon statues flanked the stone arch; they were so vivid that people would often feel as if the dragons were gazing at them.

Bang. A person was thrown out from the seal.

That person’s clothes were in tatters, tainted with blood. One of his arms was broken, bent at an odd angle, and the elbow bone was exposed.

“You loser. Do you honestly think everyone can get into the Valiant Academy?”

“Take away his ID. Let him stand out here. We have a test this afternoon. I’m glad that he’ll get a zero because he won’t be there.”

“Listen, you punk. This is what you get for angering Young Master Ming. How dare you argue with him when you’re so weak? Is it that hard to call him Young Master Ming and bow to him? Why did you have to make us beat you? Now it’s too late, even if you want to kneel before Young Master Ming!”

“Forget about him. Let the loser stay here; we’ll make sure that he fails all of his tests. He’s already late for class today. He’ll be expelled soon enough.”

Some young men were standing inside the arch; they stared at the boy sprawled outside the seal with disdain.

That beaten-up boy bit his teeth. Blood was still dripping from his hair. He used one hand to prop himself to a sitting position. While glaring at the young men, he filed his teeth and clenched his only able hand. “One day, I will make sure that you pay for this!”

“You idiot. Goodbye.”

“Let’s go, guys.”

The young men sneered and turned away to leave.

Boom!!

They heard a deafening noise by the door as soon as they turned. A dragon came whooshing down from the sky, making the entire stone arch tremble.
