At the venue.
The news of the death of the two members of the Liu family was quickly spread out by the two middle-aged men in suits. But the news didn't alert the media.
At the moment, the preliminaries in the branch venues were in full swing, attracting the attention of everyone in the base city. Some media outlets had heard about the news and reported it, but it didn't cause much of a stir.
After all, the deceased members of the Liu family were nameless. No one would be curious about the cause of their deaths. Only the name "Liu family" had attracted the attention of some gossipers.
The Liu family received the news.
The news was sent back as soon as possible. Their "ears" were everywhere.
Not only did they hear about the deaths, but they also found out which branch of the deceased were from, the cause of death, and the entire conflict.
When they learned that it was the Pixie Pet Store that had done this, the higher-ups of the Liu family flew into a rage.
The deceased were merely three unimportant members of the family, but the entire Liu family had been slapped in the face!
Liu Tianzong flew into a rage as soon as he received the news. He summoned most of the higher-ups of the Liu family and called for a family meeting to discuss the matter.
The death of the three members of the family shouldn't have alarmed the higher-ups of the family. But this incident was different. Not only had the Liu family's dignity been violated, the perpetrator was not to be underestimated either.
At the very least, the higher-ups of the Liu family had yet to find out the real background of the store that was so arrogant and had the Inferno Dragon.
They had to be careful before they could figure out the cards of the enemy. That was why they didn't use violence directly.
The meeting was over. No one knew the details of the meeting. But not long after the meeting, a large amount of information about the champion that the Pixie Pet Store had recommended emerged on the Internet.
Apart from her name and age, there was also information about her school and her photo.
There was also a large amount of negative information about this girl. The people who had leaked the information were all public figures with a large number of fans.
For example, the school belle had used her body to gain popularity, and the video of her drinking with a coal miner.
As the saying goes, "Pictures tell the truth." With rumors flying all over the place, as well as many unclear but similar videos, many people believed it to be true.
…
After leaving the venue, Su Ping took Su Lingyue home.
After three hours of hard work, Su Ping finally arrived at his house.
First, he had to report to his mother that he was safe.
Li Qingru was relieved to see them back safely. When she learned that Su Lingyue had made it to the next rank, she was overjoyed. She said that she would make Su Lingyue's dinner tonight!
Su Ping handed Su Lingyue over to his mother and drove back to the store. He parked his car and went inside.
In the nursing pen, Su Ping saw Joanna cultivating inside. Her cultivation posture was a little strange. Her body was surrounded by strands of golden light that looked like Sanskrit characters. It was a little mysterious.
There were not many people on the street. They were probably watching the live broadcast of the Elite League. Su Ping did not disturb her and allowed her to continue her training.
Without customers, he would have less energy but he was happy to be able to relax. He took Tang Ruyan out from the scroll and told her to look after the store. She could receive customers in case they showed up.
As for himself, he went to the test room and summoned the Dark Dragon Hound. He had the Dark Dragon Hound as his sparring partner. That way, he could exercise the Dark Dragon Hound's muscles and he would have a suitable training partner …
He didn't have to take a ride to the cultivation sites. The test room was a good place for him to train. It was like a battle arena of the highest level. No matter what he did, he would not be able to tear it down.
At the very least, the Dark Dragon Hound's current level of energy couldn't do any damage to the test room.
Su Ping didn't ask the Inferno Dragon to be his sparring partner. The Inferno Dragon was close to the peak of the ninth rank. He couldn't beat the Inferno Dragon at the moment, unless the Inferno Dragon went easy on him. But that would be pointless.
The Dark Dragon Hound was at the intermediate position of the ninth rank, much more powerful than Su Ping. However, the Dark Dragon Hound was not as aggressive.
Speaking of aggressive, Su Ping was having a headache. The Dark Dragon Hound was an aggressive pet of the demon family. However, it had maxed out its defensive skills and was weak in its offensive skills. It was as if the Dark Dragon Hound was trying to change into a turtle.
Su Ping thought it was necessary to let the Dark Dragon Hound know the purpose of its attacks.
After warming up, Su Ping began to fight with the Dark Dragon Hound.
With the help of the Star Prism, Su Ping could unleash a strength close to the ninth rank. With the help of the Solar Bulwark, he could move as fast as an average titled battle pet warrior. With the help of the Fist of Exorcist, Su Ping was able to shake the Dark Dragon Hound's shield with one punch. If he could increase his strength to the limit of the shield, he would be able to break it.
They worked out for several hours.
All of a sudden, someone was pounding on the door.
Su Ping was tired as well. He leaned against the Dark Dragon Hound's belly to catch his breath. The Dark Dragon Hound was also licking its lips and sweating.
Su Ping took a few breaths before he went to open the door.
It was Su Lingyue who was standing by the door, looking worried.
"What?"
"Look, look at this stuff on the Internet …" Su Lingyue was less worried when she saw Su Ping. She handed her phone to Su Ping.
Su Ping took a look and saw a lot of news about Su Lingyue. It was as if she had suddenly become a top star in one day, receiving a lot of attention.
But he took a closer look and saw that it was all negative news.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He wasn't surprised. He had expected this but he didn't expect it to happen so soon. It seemed that the Liu family was well-informed.
"Congratulations. You're famous now," Su Ping said.
Su Lingyue was surprised. Su Ping's words almost drove her crazy.
Famous? That was not famous. She was going to be infamous and her name would go down in history!
As a girl, her innocence had been tarnished. If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Xingyu, her classmate and friend, had informed her, she wouldn't have known that she had become so infamous on the Internet!
She had thought that Su Ping would have a solution when she found Su Ping. She didn't know that he was just making sarcastic remarks!
"This, this must be revenge!" Su Lingyue gnashed her teeth.
"Oh, I see that you know. That's all I need to know," Su Ping said.
Su Lingyue opened her eyes wide. At that moment, she was wondering if she was really his sister. Or, was his concern for her all fake?!
Su Ping raised his hand and knocked on her forehead. "You know that someone is taking revenge and you're still angry. Aren't you falling into the enemy's trap?"
Su Lingyue was angry. "You're not the one being slandered. Of course you're not angry!"
Devour!
"Who says I'm not angry? I just don't want to show it."
Su Ping said casually, "Besides, what's the point of being angry? You might as well save your energy for the matches. They're just slandering you. They're just trying to hurt you. They want you to be cursed and scolded. Some brainless young people will be influenced and try to hurt you during the matches."
"But, as long as you're strong enough, you can defeat them."
Su Lingyue bit her teeth. "That's easy for you to say. But I'm the one being scolded by so many people. I just want to be a pretty girl. Why did you choose me as the champion? You're setting me up!"
"Since you've fallen into my trap, then enjoy it." Su Ping didn't deny it. He rarely denied what others said, even if it was slander.
Su Lingyue stared at him.
Of course, she knew that Su Ping had pushed her out for her own good. After all, if she could become the champion, her combat strength would reach a higher level.
It would have taken her years, or even more than a decade, to reach that level. But Su Ping had helped her shorten that time.
Being mediocre or being a genius was a choice. Of course, she wouldn't choose the former. She just didn't know that the price of choosing the latter would be so high!
Besides, Su Ping seemed to have foreseen this. He must have done it on purpose!
