Two Rumours!

Duan Xi and Su Jun turned their heads in the direction of the three voices. They both saw three youths who were about eighteen, nineteen years old. She looked at the three of them with an indifferent expression on her face and injected Qi into her eyes while he moved his eyes to the youth standing on the left. The youth standing on the left was handsome with short black hair and brown eyes. Seeing his appearance, he moved his eyes above his head and saw both his name and cultivation level.

Su Jun raised his eyebrows in surprise, 'Duan Li? He is from the same family as Duan Xi, Duan Ri and that bastard Duan Jin?' He lowered his eyebrows. 'Regardless of what family he is from, this is a perfect opportunity to test just how strong I am now. Hu Yun's cultivation was equal to mine and I was able to beat him with tiger's punch and my normal strength. Magical wolves were two ranks higher than I was and I was able to beat them using whirling dragon punch. He is one rank higher than I am, I am sure I can beat him. But just how far do I have to go do it?'

Su Jun moved his eyes to the youth standing in the middle. Unlike Duan Li, this youth had average looks with long brown hair and blue eyes.

Su Jun raised his eyebrows in surprise, 'He has the same surname as that elder?' He lowered his eyebrows. 'Like with Duan Li, this is a perfect opportunity. My cultivation skill changed from D-rank to SSS+-rank. I wonder if there is a noticeable change to my strength. I will fight him first and then Duan Li.' He moved his eyes to the youth standing on the right. This youth like the one standing in the middle had average looks but with short hair instead of the long and green eyes instead of the blue.

'He looks exactly like Cui Ba. If their hair length and eye colour were the same you wouldn't be able to tell which is which. Well, I would be able to since I can see people names above people heads...' Su Jun nodded his head and said as he moved his eyes across the three youths, "Alright, I will fight you, but only after I eat."

'Su Jun was able to deal with rank 1 middle stage magical beasts. He will be able to beat these three easily but why did he even accept. There is no reason for him to do so…' Duan Xi turned her head away from Duan Li, Cui Ba, Cui Bo to Su Jun.

Duan Li, Cui Ba and Cui Bo all frowned. It was clear that not one of them liked what Su Jun said.

"Are you making me wait?! Me someone from Duan family?!" Duan Li said in a loud arrogant voice. Everyone in the restaurant turned their heads to them.

"What's going on?" a female disciple suddenly asked.

"Duan Li, Cui Ba and Cui Bo from the top five challenged that guy that walks around with a goddess to a fight," a male disciple who was watching Su Jun and Duan Xi from the moment they entered the restaurant explained.

"Which one? Su Jun or that one with dantian and martial talent of above A rank?" the second male disciple asked.

"Who is Su Jun?" the first male disciple said.

"Su Jun is the disciple that defeated three other disciples by himself and he also like that genius has a goddess by his side," the third disciple said.

"So which one is he? Su Jun or that genius?" the second female disciple asked.

"He is Su Jun! He is the one that defeated three disciples on his own and expelled Kang Wu from the sect!" the fourth male disciple who recognised Su Jun shouted out.

"He isn't Su Jun, he is that genius disciple. I saw him multiple times here in the restaurant together with that goddess," the fifth male disciple said.

"No, he is Su Jun!" the fourth male disciple said in a loud voice.

"No, he is the genius!" the fifth male disciple said in a loud voice.

"No, he is Su Jun!"

"No, he is that genius!"

"No, he is Su Jun!"

"No, he is that genius!"

They went back and forth a multiple times but then a sudden voice of the third female disciple said, "Could they be one and the same?"

All disciples turned their heads to that female disciple. They gasped in shock, their bodies shook and explosions rang out in their heads as they realised that the two rumours that were going around the outer sect were about the same person. After they slightly calmed down, they laughed bitterly in their hearts because of their stupidity of not being able to connect the two rumours together.

"If you think about it, it makes sense. In both rumours, both the genius and Su Jun had a goddess by their side and the goddess's clothes, hair colour, hair length and face are the same. That means Su Jun and the genius are one and the same," the sixth male disciple said.

All disciples nodded their heads and they all left their seats and began to gather around the five – Su Jun, Duan Xi, Duan Li, Cui Bo and Cui Ba as they were curious what was going to happen. The waitresses started gathering around them as well as they were just as curious about what would happen next. The waitress that waited on Duan Xi and Su Jun and the one that spread information about Su Jun's martial talent and dantian bit down her lip and lowered her head, 'I am sorry. It seems I got you into trouble…'

"Don't get arrogant, you punk! You just have dantian and martial talent of above A-rank. Don't think that just because of that you are on equal footing with us – the young masters from the noble martial families of Zobrea province of Feijing continent! You should be honoured by the fact that we young masters even acknowledge your existence and allow you to spar with us. So get off your ass and go outside," Cui Ba said in a loud arrogant voice. Cui Bo nodded his head. Duan Xi turned her head to Cui Ba.

Su Jun frowned, 'Did I make a mistake by not setting an example?' But before he could say anything or do anything, Duan Xi coldly said, "Get on your knees, apologise and scram."

All the spectators widened their eyes in shock and turned their heads to Duan Xi. Cui Ba, Cuii Bo and Duan Li turned their heads to Duan Xi. Duan Li's face paled. Cui Bo and Cui Ba frowned and Cui Ba coldly said, "Who do you think you are talking to, b*tch?"

Su Jun's frown deepened and anger boiled inside him. He didn't care if others insulted him or snapped at him. But if they insulted those that he cared about, he would snap and would react the same way as if they physically attacked him. He would teach them a lesson so they would think twice before insulting and snapping at people he cared about. He without saying a single word activated his movement skill – swift crane. Suddenly appearing in front of Cui Ba, he clenched his fist and punched aiming at his abdomen, without saying a single word.

BAM!

<+4,000 System Points>

The punch connected with Cui Ba's abdomen. "Ahhh!!!" he shouted out in pain, spat out a mouthful of blood and lost consciousness; he was sent flying into the crowd.

Duan Xi eyes widened in shock, 'That punch! It was of the strength of a normal rank 9 martial mortal!'

"He has been crippled!" A disciple on who Cui Ba fell on shouted out.
