‘Sumo’ Fatty had never been yelled at by anyone, let alone been told so brazenly that he was cutting in line. It was utter disrespect.
Unbearable!
However, before his fist could even be raised, Ren Yuanhao grabbed him like a chick and lifted him up.
“Excuse me, I’m borrowing your body for a moment.”
Ren Yuanhao’s true qi surged, and he immediately threw the fatty into the crowd like a bowling ball!
Before ‘Sumo’ Fatty could even exclaim, he rolled forward like a bowling ball, clearing the way. After all, those signing up were ordinary people. Seeing this, they scattered like they’d seen a ghost, scrambling two steps back. Ren Yuanhao, using the fatty to clear the path, quickly moved to the front!
Standing in the center of the crowd, he felt the angry stares from behind. He then glared back and coldly asked, “What? Do you have a problem?”
Ren Yuanhao’s handsome face was full of rogue charm, and his eyes flashed with a chilling, decisive glint that made the people behind him shiver.
“Fatty, get up. Congratulations on successfully cutting in line. Remember, this is my gift to you. You must keep it in your heart, not wear such a sour face.”
Ren Yuanhao spread his hands and pulled up the fatty’s drooping corners into a ‘feigned smile’.
“That’s right, smile for me.”
Ren Yuanhao clenched his fist and loudly announced again, “You people in front, are you going to move, or do you want me to carve a bloody path and send you home early?”
Everyone’s faces showed an expression of ‘I can’t beat you, damn it.’ Then, like a well-drilled unit, they watched as this supremely arrogant man walked to the very front with a swagger.
“Newcomer, you’re quite bold, aren’t you?” a man in black tight-fitting attire asked, holding a pen and paper, a cigarette dangling from his lips, as he observed the extremely arrogant man with interest.
Ren Yuanhao wagged his finger. “No, no, no. I just want to see these good-for-nothings grinding their teeth in frustration because they can’t beat me. It’s exciting.”
“Name.”
“Long Xiaotian.”
Ren Yuanhao blurted out this name. According to her, it was two words: exciting!
“Damn, a bold name. I hope you can remain as bold after joining our company.”
Ren Yuanhao, holding his work ID, strode in. Suddenly, he stopped, looking left and right at the various facilities testing the physical capabilities of the applicants. He deliberately feigned ignorance and said, “Oh, right. I don’t need to test these things?”
“No, you don’t. You’re a troublemaker, and we welcome troublemakers. However, I hope you don’t get scared by the more terrifying guys inside. If you can maintain this spirit after tonight, only then will you have succeeded.”
Ren Yuanhao snapped his fingers. “Don’t worry, I’m the biggest troublemaker. You better remember my name.”
Ren Yuanhao swaggered into the second screening location.
Speaking of which, having a work ID didn’t guarantee deep access to the base. Only by displaying outstanding strength would one be highly valued. Ren Yuanhao observed for a moment and realized the base was incredibly vast. If he intended to force his way in with sheer martial power, defeat the Three Kings, and destroy the terminal data, it would be as difficult as reaching the heavens.
He was fortunate he hadn’t chosen such a reckless path.
“So, who will I use as a stepping stone next?”
Ren Yuanhao entered the second assessment hall. The number of people inside had significantly reduced, with only about a hundred remaining.
As he was looking for a ‘stepping stone,’ Ren Yuanhao looked up and saw something about combat power rankings.
“Oh, so if I take down the first-ranked person directly, I can stand out from this crowd?”
This simplest and most brutal idea flashed through Ren Yuanhao’s mind. As a man, once an idea was conceived, it had to be put into practice immediately.
Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.
Ren Yuanhao found a large piece of paper, rolled it into a megaphone shape, and without bothering with the staff, directly shouted, “Hey, Zhao Ergou, come out here now.”
Ren Yuanhao’s voice echoed in the vast hall, sounding particularly jarring. Even the staff stopped their assessment work.
“Hey, Ergou, someone’s looking for you.”
“Looks like a newcomer. Probably wants to die.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, I just heard, this newcomer is quite arrogant. Something about calling himself Long Xiaotian. Ergou, I bet this kind of arrogant guy wants to use you as a stepping stone.”
Zhao Ergou, who was slouching in his chair with his leg jiggling, suddenly glanced at the man shouting his name and immediately sprang up from his seat. He cracked his knuckles and muttered in a low voice, “We’ll see who uses whom as a stepping stone.”
“Yo, everyone else is afraid to stand up, but you did. It seems Zhao Ergou is you, then?”
“So what if it is?”
Ren Yuanhao tilted his head, his lips curving into a grin. “I’m a man of my word. I want to use you as a stepping stone. Look, the assessment here is only D-class. I’m a man who wants to reach S-class.”
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
“Holy shit, he’s probably out of his mind.”
“No, no, we should care for the intellectually challenged. But the intellectually challenged looks so handsome, it’s really a headache. Hey, kid, wouldn’t it be better to be a young master? Quick money, and enjoyable. Why suffer here?”
“I guess he might have some functional impairment in certain areas, so he’s trying his luck here?”
The crowd erupted in laughter, but only Zhao Ergou didn’t laugh. It was because, in Ren Yuanhao’s eyes, he saw a hint of beastly ferocity. Such a man should be confined to a wolf den!
He chuckled coldly and said loudly, “After beating up so many muggles all day, finally, someone a bit more substantial has arrived.”
Zhao Ergou walked to the combat area, pushed aside the two people who were currently fighting, and made a highly provocative hand-flipping gesture towards Ren Yuanhao.
Ren Yuanhao responded with an even more brutal throat-slitting gesture, then suddenly announced loudly, “How about this? To maintain your D-class first-rank status, you can directly concede. Anyway, I just need to step on you to reach C-class, no need to beat you too badly. This way, you can still comfortably maintain your first place. Isn’t that perfect for both of us?”
This was undoubtedly the most arrogant provocation they had ever heard, bar none.
Could Zhao Ergou possibly accept such a cruel and inhumane condition?
Of course not!
It was like another person’s dog peeing on your territory and then happily running away, only to brag to every dog, “That dog’s territory is so small, I can pee anywhere, and that mutt didn’t even dare to bark. So, everyone, don’t hold back, just pee!”
Can you believe that?
Zhao Ergou’s temper was completely ignited by Ren Yuanhao, and he flew into a rage, pointing at Ren Yuanhao and yelling, “I am Zhao Ergou! If I don’t beat you until you’re spitting teeth today, I’ll pack my bags and leave!”
As soon as the words fell, Ren Yuanhao darted forward like lightning and stepped onto the stage.
Ergou, having stayed in this place for quite some time, quickly rallied dozens of people. However, as soon as Ergou finished his rallying cry, he was lying on the stage, as if he had been winded!
“What the hell? What happened?”
