“The Pingtian Grand Duke!”
The imperial family of the Great Qian Empire sent a grand duke.
In the universe, those acknowledged as grand dukes were all eternal-stage dukes.
In a high-tier civilization like the Great Qian Empire, the ones bestowed with the title of grand duke must certainly be eternal-stage dukes.
The Chongshan Grand Duke was also an eternal-stage duke like the Pingtian
Grand Duke.
At this moment, as he spoke, astonishment rippled through the hearts of the crowd.
In previous exchange summits, the imperial family rarely intervened in the affairs of the Secondary Career Alliance. They were mere spectators.
But this time, the Pingtian Grand Duke had unexpectedly spoken up because of Wang Teng and Gabriel, promising rewards!
“There are rumors that the Pingtian Grand Duke’s relationship with the Chongshan Grand Duke isn’t very good. They belong to different factions within the imperial family,” Grandmaster Alfred’s voice suddenly appeared in Wang Teng’s mind, causing him to pause slightly.
“The affairs of the imperial family have nothing to do with me,” Wang Teng transmitted his voice, his gaze flickering.
Grandmaster Alfred nodded secretly.
“Thank you, Your Highness!” Gabriel’s eyes lit up with reverence as he bowed respectfully. “I will not disappoint everyone’s expectations!”
Wang Teng didn’t rush to express his gratitude. Instead, he fell into contemplation.
The others looked at him with some surprise. What was he up to?
Facing the reward from the Pingtian Grand Duke, even if he didn’t care, it would be appropriate to express his thanks. His silence was somewhat peculiar.
“Wang Teng, you’re quite audacious, not even thanking His Highness for his reward!” Gabriel’s voice was cold.
“Wang Teng!” Grandmaster Hua Yuan pulled him from behind.
Offending the Parkers family wasn’t a big deal, but offending the imperial family was much more troublesome.
Although Wang Teng had joined the Virtual Universe Corporation and had a decent position, it still wasn’t wise to antagonize the imperial family.
“Do you have any doubts?” Grand Duke Pingtian’s gaze swept over, asking calmly.
“No doubts, just a question. Your Highness, is this reward for a specific secondary profession, or is it for all secondary professions?” Wang Teng inquired.
“Why? Are you participating in the three secondary profession petitions?” Grand Duke Pingtian seemed to have caught on to something, his gaze falling upon the three conspicuous badges on Wang Teng’s chest. His eyes couldn’t help but flicker slightly as he asked.
The members of the other major imperial families were astonished when they heard this, all turning their surprised gazes toward Wang Teng.
Could he be so impulsive?
Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others finally understood what Wang Teng was up to, their mouths slightly agape, hesitant to speak.
They wanted to advise Wang Teng, but as they had mentioned before, it wouldn’t do much good. Now, it wasn’t appropriate to say much more.
Gabriel was somewhat bewildered. He had noticed the three badges on Wang Teng’s chest earlier, but he hadn’t paid much attention to them. After all, the highest level displayed on those badges was only fourth-rank grandmaster, not even reaching the later stages, so they were far from being on par with him.
“That’s not it…” Wang Teng replied.
Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
Gabriel’s eyes showed a hint of disdain. Just as he thought, this kid must have a screw loose in his head to even consider participating in three secondary professions simultaneously.
Did he think having more quantity would ensure victory?
“Well then, what’s your intention?” Grand Duke Pingtian furrowed his brow and inquired.
“I intend to participate… Wait, let me count… One, two, three… Oh, a total of seven petitions, not just these three,” Wang Teng counted on his fingers and said.
Grand Duke Pingtian:…
Gabriel:…
The Furious Flaming Universe Lord:…
Everyone:…
The universe-stage martial warriors and eternal-stage martial warriors looked at Wang Teng as if he was a ghost.
Seven secondary professions—almost all of them.
He was bold. This Wang Teng was truly audacious!
“What… did you just say?” Grand Duke Pingtian felt like he might not have heard correctly and asked again.
Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others pulled Wang Teng’s sleeve frantically, hinting at him to change his words.
However, Wang Teng remained unmoved, speaking calmly, “I intend to participate in seven secondary profession petitions.”
“Seven secondary profession petitions!” Gabriel finally snapped out of his daze, sneering, “Haha, you must have lost your mind.”
“Your Highness, this person is clearly mocking you,” the Furious Flaming Universe Lord said.
“It’s none of your business if I participate in seven secondary profession petitions. Why are you making such a fuss?” Wang Teng said indifferently.
“How many secondary profession petitions you participate in is indeed none of our concern, but mocking His Highness is an insult to him, and such an offense should be punished!” The Furious Flaming Universe Lord said coldly.
“Who said I was mocking His Highness? You accuse me of mockery just like that. Why don’t you try reaching for the sky while you’re at it?” Wang Teng chuckled.
“You!” The Furious Flaming Universe Lord was pletely unable to argue with Wang Teng, seething with anger. “Stop playing tricks here. Do you think you’re an unparalleled genius? Even mastering three secondary professions would be impressive, let alone seven.”
“And if you have mastered seven, why haven’t you brought out the badges? I don’t think you have them at all.”
“Sorry, my chest isn’t big enough, unlike yours… with your massive chest muscles. Forget about wearing seven badges, you could probably handle seventy,” Wang Teng glanced at the man’s chest casually, then remarked in a nonchalant tone.
The others couldn’t help but feel incredibly awkward, their gazes inadvertently shifting towards the Furious Flaming Universe Lord’s chest.
The Furious Flaming Universe Lord was so angry that his chest was trembling.
What did he mean by massive chest muscles?
