Chapter 132: Rascal
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Yu, are there any big events going on in the Hope Barrier lately?" Tang Ling did not even look at Hank as he asked Yu a strange question instead.

"Huh?" Yu was confused. He had no idea what Tang Ling was trying to express, but the hand on his shoulder tightened a little and the encouragement from the strength was obvious. Yu understood that and felt a little touched.

"I don't think there's any." Tang Ling looked puzzled as he continued with his own muttering to himself, "What kind of idiot wears a formal uniform in the middle of the night? Is he trying to make himself look more like a man?"

Right after his words subsided, everyone in the cafe was stunned. The three seniors even instinctively stepped back and hid in the deepest recess.

Instead, uncontrollable sneers and laughter came from the lobby, reflecting off Hank's slightly agitated expression.

Indeed, throughout the entire camp, only Hank would wear his formal black uniform all day every day, so he looked neat and clean from top to bottom.

He had a tendency to stay clean and unusually obsessed with his own image. He never would have thought that in this cave filled with garbage, one of the garbage would mock him about that and even sneer at him for looking like a girl.

Did he mock me? It had been years since Hank experienced something like this.

He squinted his eyes and a dangerous gleam flashed in them. His already pressuring aura surged all of a sudden. The pebbles around his feet even shattered under the pressure, producing a series of crackling noises.

At the same time, one of the eight figures behind Hank who stood on the very left stepped up. He was even bigger than Orston.

"Dier Gordin, No. 8 on the power ranking in the First Reserved Camp. I'm also the quartermaster of the camp. I deeply feel that some of our juniors lack manners and require teaching." As he spoke, he strode forward firmly and left a deep footprint on the ground with every step he took.

"Orston, for the sake of our family, move aside." Dier then stopped and punched the wall of the cave and a crack quickly extended from the point of impact.

"3,300 kgs of punching power." Tang Ling immediately noticed the numbers in his mind. He also glanced over at Hank at the same time, noticing that the pebbles around his feet were shattered.

He could feel that the power from Hank had shattered the pebbles, but as for what kind of power, he could not analyze it just yet.

"Hehehe. Be grateful that the one teaching you people a lesson is the weakest among us. How about this? If every one of you is willing to make a stand, I suppose only that junior whose mouth is so filthy will get punished," spoke another one of the eight. It was a female senior with long brown hair, voluptuous body, and wheat-colored skin.

Orston did not step down or make a stand. His eyes were still reeling with confusion as he was unable to grasp what happened. Are we going to fight?

Even if he could understand it, he would not step down. Orston was the genius from the Gordin family, the one that everyone had high hopes for. Dier also knew about Orston. Strictly speaking, Dier was Orston's cousin, and he was also one of the geniuses of the family.

So why would the No. 1 genius of the family make way for the one who was not the No. 1 genius of the family?

Besides, Orston would never abandon those who he deemed friends; it was not his life principle.

"Orston?" Dier's expression grew even uglier.

Similarly, the other members of the Fierce Dragon Squad remained silent. No one was willing to make a stand. Even the scaredy-cats Andy and Amir who were afraid of trouble did not move.

"Dier, move," Hank demanded, his explosive aura having faded away.

"Are you going to do it yourself?" Dier stepped aside but gave the confused Orston a warning glance.

Hank did not say anything and walked straight to Tang Ling.

Yu instinctively wanted to stand in front of Tang Ling since he was the one who had blocked the insult for him earlier.

However, Tang Ling showed a disdainful smile as he pulled Yu behind him and walked up to Hank.

"Are you bold enough to beat me to death here?" Tang Ling asked with his head tilted to one side.

Hank was stunned. He suddenly felt that this young black-haired boy reeked of a despicable aura. It was unusually uncomfortable.

Truth be told, Hank had a plethora of ways to oppress Tang Ling and more than a hundred ways to make him die without anyone knowing, yet he dared not kill him in public.

The rules in the Hope Barrier were strict and fighting among warriors was considered the biggest taboo.

How powerful would the troops be if they were trying to kill each other rather than the monsters outside?

Even a genius like Hank dared not challenge the rule openly.

Therefore, he frowned and started to hesitate as he thought about what he should do.

However, at that moment when Hank hesitated, Tang Ling suddenly took a deep breath and said in his loudest voice, "Guys! Come have a look!"

"The boss of the First Reserved Camp, Hank, is trying to beat someone up openly! The first place in the ranking is trying to beat up the last place, a weak and innocent boy! How despicable! How unreasonable! Oh my gosh, who would come here anymore? People are dying in the First Reserved Camp, and I'm one of them because I'm in last place on the ranking! Is it a sin for being young? Is it? I'm younger than you and grew up later than you, so I have to be beaten up and possibly even to death?!

"Guys, come have a closer look! It's going to be worth your while to watch!

"Orston, do you want to get an entrance fee from the viewers? One Hope credit to buy a closer seat to the show!"

Dead silence. Everything went silent in the entire cave.

Tang Ling's loud voice echoed throughout the cave and spread towards the lobby and beyond the entrance.

Loud laughter then came from outside.

Since when did the First Reserved Camp have such a strange kid? Everyone knew that those who made it into the First Reserved Camp were proud and arrogant, thinking of themselves as the chosen one.

People like that were contentious and proud. They would always settle conflicts with challenges or something similar. The losers would not say anything even if they were beaten to death because of their pride and glory!

However, since when did such a shameless person entered the camp? But… since the last place was that infamous big glutton, it sounded reasonable when the words came from his mouth.

Someone heard a veteran warrior whisper to the other warrior beside him, "Hank doesn't dare to do it."

The warrior was indeed correct. Hank may settle this under the table but not openly. If he beat Tang Ling, he would be oppressing a New Moon Warrior notoriously. Since he valued his reputation a lot, he would never bear such a title and it was also against the rules.

Hank was really stunned. He had never seen such a shameless person since his first day in the First Reserved Camp. His handsome face flushed with embarrassment, but he stood there and dared not move.

At that moment, a regular-looking person, who looked like a forgettable passerby but had a slight sense of maturity, stepped up. He subtly pulled Hank back and stated their intention calmly, "I hope you remember what you did tonight. Actually, we are here for Vian."
