Chapter 419: Ma Teng’s Arrogance, Wang Haoran Steps In

(Laugh, keep laughing!)

(Keep being smug!)

(The protagonist is watching your performance!)

(The harsher your words, the angrier the disciples of Piao Miao Holy Land will be.)

(And when the protagonist humiliates you, it’ll be even more satisfying!)

Lying on the ground, Li Yuan listened to Ma Teng’s continuous taunts, silently cursing:

(When your fiancée Xi Qingmeng teams up with the protagonist against you.)

(I’ll be the first to laugh at you!)

Of course, Ma Teng had no idea about Li Yuan’s thoughts.

After easily defeating Li Yuan, he felt incredibly proud, believing that no disciple in Piao Miao Holy Land could match him.

“You Piao Miao Holy Land disciples are pathetic!”

The surrounding disciples of Piao Miao Holy Land were furious but didn’t dare to speak up.

After all, their strongest disciple, the Holy Son, had been utterly defeated.

To win, they would have to seek help from the elders.

But such “running to the adults” behavior was even more humiliating, so they couldn’t do it.

As the Piao Miao disciples silently fumed.

A voice suddenly spoke up—

“Wait a minute!”

“We still have Junior Brother Wang Haoran!”

“He easily defeated Senior Brother Li Yuan before!”

“Maybe he can beat Ma Teng!”

As soon as this “disciple” spoke, the others looked expectantly at Wang Haoran.

Hoping he would step up and defeat Ma Teng.

However.

Some disciples, especially the female ones, disagreed with Wang Haoran fighting.

In their minds, while Junior Brother Haoran was strong, he was still only at the peak of the Transformation Realm.

If he lost and ended up face-first on the ground like Senior Brother Li Yuan…

They would be heartbroken!

So, seeing Wang Haoran actually step forward with everyone’s support, they tried to dissuade him:

“Junior Brother, you’ve just arrived at the Holy Land and haven’t trained long, don’t push yourself!”

They also tried to provoke Ma Teng, hoping he wouldn’t fight Haoran:

“Ma Teng, you’re bullying someone younger! Have you no shame!?”

—Even more ridiculously, among the Nine Nether Holy Land disciples.

Some junior sisters also started advising their Holy Son!

“Yeah, bullying someone younger, even if you win, it’s disgraceful!”

“Senior Brother, let’s not fight!”

Ma Teng: “……”

Junior Sister, thank you! For an outsider, you call me old!

At this moment, Ma Teng looked at Wang Haoran.

Under such public opinion, he couldn’t attack Wang Haoran first.

So, he hoped Wang Haoran would attack, giving him an “excuse” to retaliate—

And shatter the last hope of the Piao Miao Holy Land disciples!

Following the plot, Wang Haoran, pretending to be at the peak of the Transformation Realm, stepped forward—

“Ma Teng, you sparred with Senior Brother Li Yuan, and he lost because he wasn’t as skilled. Your taunts are understandable.”

“But now, you’re insulting Piao Miao Holy Land! This is intolerable!”

“As a member of Piao Miao Holy Land, I won’t allow it!”

Wang Haoran spoke righteously as he walked towards Ma Teng.

On the way, he flashed a bright smile at his senior sisters, saying, “Senior Sisters, I won’t lose!”

Making the senior sisters blush and cheer for him.

At this moment, Li Yuan, who had been lying down, secretly got up to watch.

(Of course, you won’t lose!)

(You’re the protagonist! Fighting above your level is your specialty!)

(And you’ve figured out Ma Teng’s strength through me, the cannon fodder!)

(With a guaranteed victory, you step out to humiliate Ma Teng and show off!)

Li Yuan knew that Wang Haoran’s “show-off” today would not only earn him the admiration of Lin Xixue and the Piao Miao Holy Land disciples.

When Master Shangguan Yunlan learned of it, she would be pleased with his “standing up for the Holy Land’s honor” and start seeing him as the future pillar of the Holy Land.

She would frequently reward him with cultivation resources and often call him over to check on his progress and answer his questions.

Moreover, more importantly—

The Holy Maiden of Nine Nether Holy Land, An Buyu, was also watching.

When the “protagonist” Wang Haoran unexpectedly defeated Ma Teng.

She wouldn’t be angry but rather intrigued by this mysterious man.

Later, when she visited Aunt Zhao Nishang.

The lustful protagonist would volunteer to host her.

And An Buyu, out of curiosity, would agree.

Then, through continuous interaction, she would start to fall for him…

(And just when they were about to kiss, the protagonist would get scared off!)

Thinking of this, Li Yuan began to look around.

And indeed, he saw in a distant corner, a veiled woman with another woman.

(That should be my “good teammate” An Buyu.)

(Wearing a veil, she indeed looks like a beauty, no wonder the protagonist falls for her at first sight!)

(The one beside her… is her junior sister?)

Both were intently watching Wang Haoran and Ma Teng’s confrontation.

At this moment.

On the field, after Wang Haoran “bravely” stepped forward.

Ma Teng was pleased but outwardly pretended to “not want to bully the young”:

“Step back, you’re not my match!”

Wang Haoran just shook his head.

This made Ma Teng even happier, wanting to teach this pretty boy, who made his junior sisters “betray,” a lesson:

“Kid, looks like you want to dance like your lapdog senior brother?”

“……You talk too much.”

Ma Teng, you’re not even fully developed, just a passerby name compared to me, yet you dare to act tough!

Wang Haoran thought.

And immediately launched a sneak attack.

“Slap—!”

A slap instantly stunned Ma Teng, “You—!”

“What do you mean you!”

“I’m sneaking up, but you’re also bullying the young!”

Wang Haoran said, and sneakily attacked again.

Giving the unprepared Ma Teng another slap!

“As a disciple of Piao Miao Holy Land, I won’t allow anyone to insult our Holy Land!”

“Bastard! You’ve gone too far!”

Seeing himself slapped twice, losing face in front of his junior brothers and sisters.

Ma Teng, embarrassed and angry, went all out.

He used his father’s, the Grandmaster of Nine Nether Holy Land who wasn’t interested in cultivation resources—Ma Huayun’s “super” technique—

“Attack-Defense Way!”
