Complete Martial Arts Attributes Chapter 1298 – 1298 Low

1298 Low-Tier Darkland!

There were three levels in that building. The higher you went, the lesser the dark apparitions and the higher their status.

The third level was where mid-tier devil emperors and above would move around.

Right then, in a room on the third level—Jefred, the mid-tier devil emperor, was sitting on a stone chair in a dimly lit room. He was sizing Wang Teng up amidst the shadows.

His voice was laced with indifference. “You’re quite bold!”

“Thank you for the compliment,” Wang Teng replied calmly, standing in a lower part of the room with a composed expression.

Jefred was stunned for a moment, not expecting that reply. He snorted and continued, “Do you think I’m praising you?”

“Erm… You’re not?” Wang Teng pretended he didn’t understand, scratching his head.

This fellow looks like an idiot.

Jefred felt at a loss. He stared at his junior and wondered if the latter was pretending, or if it was true stupidity.

“Do you know that the ruckus you created is enough to kill you many times over?” he said coldly.

“Sir, you can’t blame me. I only acted because that vampire wanted to kill me,” Wang Teng complained while playing innocent.

“Why did he want to kill you?” Jefred asked.

“I called him a scumbug,” Wang Teng replied truthfully.

This fellow is quite honest.

Jefred felt the corners of his lips twitch as he stared at the young fellow. He was having trouble finding words.

You called them scumbugs. They would definitely try to kill you.

But, he found it refreshing for some reason.

He didn’t like the vampires; always acting proud as if they were truly powerful.

Jefred said,”Cough, you’re able to fight against a low-tier devil emperor while still being a devil king, giving face to our race. For this reason alone I won’t probe further into the matter. Just this once.”

“Thank you!” Wang Teng replied.

The elder nodded and asked, “Oh right, what’s your name? Where did you come from?”

Here it comes!

Wang Teng’s heart pounded furiously. There was no hesitation, as he had already created an identity for himself.

“Sir, my name is Justin, and I came from the Abyss World.”

“Oh, the Abyss World? That’s a low-tier place. Looks like you don’t have a noble status,” Jefred exclaimed in surprise. He didn’t suspect anything.

A low-tier world? Wang Teng muttered in his heart.

The Abyss World I went to was a low-tier world?

Back then, the highest level of dark apparitions he would meet were devil lords. Compared to devil kings and devil emperors, those entities were indeed small fries.

This was enough evidence to know that it wasn’t a high-tier world.

Still, the idea left him astounded.

There was a question in the air…

Is the Abyss World a planet or an independent plane?

Unfortunately, he didn’t have the answer to that question at the moment.

Good thing it was enough to fool the dark elder questioning him. He wouldn’t have passed this filter if he hadn’t gone to the Abyss World and knew some things about it.

Just then, Jefred opened his mouth and said, “Nevertheless, your talent is not bad. Work with me. You can be the leader of an elite guard team first.”

The leader of an elite guards team… Wang Teng was stunned.

He had done all that to catch the eye of the higher ups among the dark apparitions, but never expected to land such an important position.

Being a team leader of elite guards sounded extraordinary.

Am I going to rise through the ranks in the Darkland?

Indeed, an outstanding person would always be in the limelight, no matter where he went.

How irritating.

“Justus,” Jefred suddenly called.

A devil armor apparition walked into the room and went down on one knee. He asked respectfully, “Sir, what are your orders?”

“Take this fellow to your group of elite guards and give him a small leader position,” Jefred said.

Justus was surprised but he didn’t ask. He nodded and said, “Of course.”

“Go ahead.” Jefred waved a hand.

Justus was about to leave—

“Erm… sir?” Wang Teng suddenly stopped and asked, “if I meet them again, can I keep calling them scumbugs?”

Jefred: …

Justus gave Wang Teng a weird look.

He knew of Wang Teng’s antics, almost getting beaten to death but standing fearlessly. He even dared to badmouth some vampires.

This guy is something else.

“If I can’t, I won’t do it,” Wang Teng offered, feeling disappointed.

“Why should we be afraid of the vampires?” Jefred replied indifferently.

“I understand. I’ll curse them again when I see them,” Wang Teng said with a sinister smile.

Once the young one left, Jefred laughed. “Interesting.”

…

Justus and Wang Teng stepped out of the building and went to where the elite guards were stationed.

Justus asked as they made their way over, “Justin, are you related to Sir Jefred?”

“Related?” Wang Teng was stunned. He shook his head and replied, “No, I’m just an ordinary fellow from the devil armor race. I have no status or identity, nor do I come from a powerful bloodline.”

“This can only mean one thing. Sir feels that you’re a talent that can be groomed,” Justus exclaimed in surprise.

“My talent is not bad.” Wang Teng nodded.

Justus: …

What a shameless fellow!

“Hahaha, Justin, do a good job; the elite guards are personally handled by Sir. You will be in close contact with him; he’ll promote you if you perform well and gain merits,” Justus said.

“It’s what I should do,” Wang Teng replied like a diligent worker.

“That’s right.” Justus patted Wang Teng’s shoulder and stopped. He then looked ahead and said, “We’re here.”

Their base was within the forest, shrouded in black mist. A large number of devil armor apparitions were gathered there.

Wang Teng and Justus’ arrival caught their attention.

One of the armored creatures approached them and greeted Justus politely, “Sir Justus.”

“Jarrod, this is a leader personally appointed by Sir. Prepare a team for him,” said Justus, going straight to the point.

“Directly appointed!” Jarrod was dumbfounded. He glanced at Wang Teng and nodded in a hurry. “Okay, I’ll make the necessary arrangements.”

“I’ll be taking my leave now.” Justus patted Wang Teng’s shoulder. “You can find me if you have any questions.”

“Thank you.” Wang Teng nodded.

Justus turned around and left.
