Geniuses should be treated like geniuses; this was the norm in this world.
In this world, as long as you had the corresponding talent, you would be able to have the corresponding status. You would be able to enjoy the cheers and support of others, and you wouldn't have to worry about those worldly things.
For such a genius, let alone working in a place like this, even asking him to do proper work would not be easy, and it would be seen as a humiliation.
Was this Chen Heng a genius?
Without a doubt, he was.
He was incredibly powerful, and no matter if it was his talent as a martial artist or his skills as a beast tamer, his power was enough to shock others.
If such a genius was somewhere else, he would have long since enjoyed the treatment of being above everyone else and would be respected by countless people.
And yet, he was here, working in a place like this.
Just what was the reason for this?
Looking at this scene, Yang Ke could not help but think to herself.
In the distance, Chen Heng was still busy by himself, and it seemed that he did not know that Yang Ke had come.
Standing there and looking at Chen Heng's actions, Yang Ke could not help but silently walk forwards.
He took steps forward, walking forward, arriving in that region just like that, wishing to take a closer look.
However, she had only taken a few steps when a figure silently walked over and stopped her.
"Miss Yang, what do you want to do by coming here?"
Fang Yuan looked at Yang Ke with a respectful expression as he said, "If you need anything, just let me know; there is no need for you to come here personally.
"Also, that child lost to you, and that is already set in stone. I don't think there is a need for you to continue suppressing him."
He looked at Yang Ke and spoke respectfully. However, he did not want Yang Ke to go up and disturb Chen Heng.
During this period of time, Chen Heng had been very focused on his work, and it seemed that he had gradually forgotten about what had happened.
However, if Yang Ke continued to go up, she might agitate him.
Fang Yuan did not want to see such a scene, nor did he want Yang Ke to do such a thing.
From how he saw it, the result of the competition had already been decided, and if he lost, he lost.
But after losing, he still wanted to continue suppressing others. This kind of thing was a little too much.
All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind as he looked at Yang Ke with a look of respect and resistance.
Standing there and looking at Fang Yuan's expression, Yang Ke shook his head and said, "I didn't …"
"I'm just a little curious …"
She looked at Chen Heng and said softly, "Why would someone like him stay in a place like this?"
Hearing this, Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment before his expression softened.
Standing still, he pondered for a moment before saying, "There's nothing we can do about it."
"Is there no other way?"
Yang Ke turned around doubtfully and looked at him.
"Yeah."
Standing there, Fang Yuan sighed and said, "I know that with Miss Yang's situation, she would have received the best training from a young age and would have been able to enjoy the best treatment in all aspects."
"But in this world, not everyone can enjoy such treatment …"
He sighed softly and seemed to have thought of something. His heart was moved. "In this world, even if some people have enough talent, their birth limits their progress."
"In places that you don't know about, there might be many people struggling in poverty, and there are many people who have to work hard just to fill their stomachs.
"For these people, it's already not easy for them to have a chance to use their own strength to support themselves and their families."
"There are some things that you, Miss Yang, have never thought of."
"However, to him, these are things that he has to face."
Standing where he was, Fang Yuan sighed softly. He then continued, "I have a rough understanding of Lu's situation."
"He is different from most people in the academy …
"He comes from an ordinary background and is just a commoner. His parents are unable to help him, and to a certain extent, they even need his support.
"Compared to the majority of the people in this academy, he can only rely on himself for everything he needs to advance."
"For someone like him, a job that Miss Yang doesn't want might be his only choice."
He said softly with a sigh.
"Is that so …"
Standing there and listening to Fang Yuan's words, Yang Ke was a little stunned. She seemed to be touched, and her emotions became complicated.
"Miss Yang, you should know how difficult it is to be a martial artist and a beast tamer, and how much you need to sacrifice in order to walk down this path."
Standing there, Fang Yuan continued to sigh. At this moment, he spoke softly. "Little Lu, to be able to reach where he is now without any support, I'm sure you know how difficult it must have been."
"That's true …"
Yang Ke was silent for a while, then slowly nodded her head, agreeing with Fang Yuan's words.
Indeed.
In this world, regardless of whether it was a martial artist or a beast tamer, it was not easy to walk down this path.
To walk down the path of a martial artist, one would need to train at all times, and also require the support of large amounts of medicine to nourish the body and develop one's strength.
Although the path of a beast tamer was not like that of a martial artist, which required constant training, one would still need large amounts of evolution fluid to nourish one's mind power, to strengthen one's mind power and become stronger.
These two paths would undoubtedly require the support of abundant resources.
Without sufficient resources, it would be very difficult to successfully walk down this path.
For Chen Heng to reach where he was without any support, it was hard to imagine how difficult it must have been for him.
Thinking to there, Yang Ke fell silent as she looked at Chen Heng's figure in the distance, feeling more and more complicated.
In the distance, as Yang Ke watched on, Chen Heng's figure gradually appeared.
In that region, his robes had long since been dyed red with blood, and his entire body gave off a bloody stench, looking quite terrifying and dirty.
But even so, he still seemed calm and composed, without any extra restlessness or other emotions.
Anyone who looked at him would feel that he was extraordinary.
Looking at Chen Heng, Yang Ke's gaze gradually changed, and she suddenly wanted to go up and say something to Chen Heng.
However, in his heart, this impulse only lasted for a split second. In the end, he still endured it.
"Even under these circumstances, he was still able to grow and reach such a stage …"
Standing there, she muttered to herself as many thoughts flashed through her mind.
It had to be said that this was the first time she had seen someone like Chen Heng.
In the past, she had seen some geniuses from ordinary backgrounds.
Those people did not have the calmness and composure that Chen Heng had, and they were instead filled with impatience and arrogance.
Compared to them, Chen Heng felt like he was at the other extreme.
"In this world, nothing is simple …"
In front of her, Fang Yuan's voice sounded out, "Sometimes, the problem is right there, and you can't ignore it even if you want to.
"Of course, sometimes the problem itself is very important, but sometimes it is not.
"What is important is to have a heart that can face it calmly and change for the better.
"Undoubtedly, that boy Lu is such a person.
"He came from a lowly background and cannot compare to anyone else, but he has never complained about any difficulties.
"As such, it is not surprising that someone like him would stay in a place like this."
"Indeed."
Yang Ke stood at the same spot and listened to Fang Yuan's words. She nodded her head in agreement.
At that moment, her gaze towards Chen Heng changed and became somewhat complicated.
However, by now, she did not want to go up and talk to him and did not want to disturb him.
"Pass a message to him for me."
She thought for a moment, then continued, "The previous matches have ended."
"Let him go and get ready to claim his prize."
"That's something that belongs to him."
"I believe that with this sum of money, he will be able to waste less time and make himself stronger."
She stood where she was and spoke softly to Fang Yuan. Then, she turned around and left.
In the distance, as she left, Chen Heng sensed something and looked in the direction she had left before returning to normal.
Not far away, Fang Yuan looked at Yang Ke, who was slowly walking away, and heaved a sigh of relief.
Over the past few days, Chen Heng had been very calm and seemed very normal. Apart from working harder, he did not seem to have changed much.
The effects of his defeat seemed to be fading away.
This was something that he was happy to see.
However, it was precisely because of this that he did not want to see Yang Ke come and disturb Chen Heng.
He was afraid that he would disturb Chen Heng's current state and make him feel even worse.
"However, have the results of the matches come out?"
He stood there and thought about what Yang Ke had just said. Then he shook his head inwardly, turned around, and left the place.
Soon, he returned to where he had been and told Chen Heng the news.
Towards this news, Chen Heng was quite calm and did not seem too surprised.
"I understand."
Standing on the spot, he nodded and smiled, appearing very relaxed.
Following this, he turned and continued to work.
In the following period of time, everything was very calm.
About two days later, Chen Heng walked out of his workplace and went to another region.
In front of him was a very large building.
Within the building, there were many people walking about. Their auras were all quite unique and did not seem to be ordinary people.
As Chen Heng walked, he immediately blended into the crowd and did not seem too eye-catching.
"Three million?"
Within the hall, looking at the woman in front of him, Chen Heng looked quite surprised, "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
"Hello."
In front of Chen Heng, the person in charge of calculating the prize money was a very peaceful-looking woman. Looking at Chen Heng, she had a professional smile on her face as she said, "We have already calculated the prize money. This is what you have received, and there is no problem with it.
If I remember correctly, the prize money for third place is only one million. "
Standing there, Chen Heng frowned, feeling quite confused.
The prize for this competition was indeed very generous. As long as the contestants entered the top ten, they would basically be able to obtain a prize of no less than hundreds of thousands of dollars.
As the third place, Chen Heng could theoretically receive one million, as well as other prizes.
However, no matter how he calculated it, it should not be three million.
There were most likely some problems with this.
Sitting there and listening to Chen Heng's words, the woman felt quite surprised before hurriedly picking up her computer and doing some research.
Only after a while did she find the answer.
