Chapter 2248 - 17: Challenging Geniuses of the Same Rank in the Genius Battlefield!

"I’ve heard about it too, such a useless person actually dares to challenge the geniuses from the outside world. Does he really think that just because his father is famous, he can fool around with the geniuses of the Genius Battlefield?"

"Haha, even if he thinks that, what can you do? He’s the son of Jia Yan. If you dare to harm him even a little, you might as well wait to die. I heard that when Jia Rong came to our Genius Battlefield, he had a conflict with a Semi-permanent Star Level strong one at the entrance and ended up killing them with just one move. It seems he used one of his father’s energy clones. Even a Stellar Class Junior creature from our Genius Battlefield could only hold a draw against his father’s energy clone. Remember, that creature is a Star Level strong one, stronger than a regular Stellar Class Junior, and yet they couldn’t defeat his father’s energy clone. Just think about how powerful his father must be now. If he kills a top genius from our Genius Battlefield, the Battlefield wouldn’t dare to hold him accountable. After all, his father is already so powerful, and once he fully unleashes his Evolutionary Creature talent and reaches Galaxy Level, he’ll hold sway over our nearby Starfields, and no one will dare cross him."

"Huh? Really that powerful? Forget it, if I run into him, I’ll just step aside. I’m only an Intermediate Starry Sky, recognized as a high-level talent genius. I hope he won’t come after me."

In the starry sky, an Intermediate Starry Sky high-level genius happened to be talking about Jia Rong with his friends.

However, the Jia Rong they mentioned seemed different from the one described inside the Ting Tian Pavilion. There, they said Jia Rong, the son of Evolution Beast Jia Yan, was actually a piece of trash.

In truth, the people in Ting Tian Pavilion weren’t spreading rumors, or rather, they were simply stating facts: Lord Jia Yan’s son is a top-tier genius.

Yet, reality is often like this. Many people are geniuses at taking things out of context. When they learned that Jia Yan’s son was just an exceedingly normal top-tier genius, they began saying that Jia Yan’s son was simply a useless genius who relied on his father’s reputation. Some even claimed that his entry into the Genius Battlefield was due to his family’s status.

Characters like this are generally the most looked down upon in the Genius Battlefield. Unfortunately, most such geniuses, when facing other geniuses in a place like this where no one fears your background, often end up getting taught a harsh lesson. But Jia Rong’s father is ’Jia Yan,’ who will be the fastest Evolutionary Creature to reach Galaxy Level in the Genius Battlefield’s history and even has a chance to become a Starry Sky Overlord. No one dares to provoke an offspring of such a being, not even the official of the Genius Battlefield wants to have a conflict with Jia Rong.

"Oh, you all say that Jia Rong is a piece of trash, right?"

In the starry sky, a few geniuses discussing Jia Rong suddenly heard a voice.

A slow-moving battleship arrived at the star they were on.

These geniuses, who prided themselves on being similarly strong and high-level talents in this area, frequently gathered here. Other than them, very few outsiders ever visited.

So when this battleship arrived, especially with the occupant questioning them, these nearly Star Space Level beings all rose to their feet, surveying the uninvited guest coldly.

"Sir, the name of Jia Rong as a useless person has long spread throughout this Star Zone. You could ask around elsewhere; why ask us?"

"That’s right, please don’t approach any closer, or we’ll consider it an offense."

The geniuses all noticed that the slowly flying battleship housed a creature around Intermediate Starry Sky level. They weren’t sure if there was a more powerful being inside, but even if there were, they didn’t believe they’d be attacked for no reason since they hadn’t said anything wrong.

"Useless, hmm? Hah, my name does seem to be widely spread."

"You all don’t think I’m useless, do you? Well, how about we have a fight? If you can beat me, I’ll give you some nice things. You can trust the word of someone from Jia’s family."

As the voice continued, the expressions of the nearly Star Space Level creatures changed dramatically.

"So it’s Lord Jia Rong. We misspoke earlier. To be honest, the things we’ve heard are just hearsay, and we don’t really believe Lord Jia Rong would be useless. Please don’t be angry."

"Indeed, with our strength, how could we possibly fight someone like you, the descendant of an Evolutionary Creature? We’re sure to lose. Please reconsider."

All the geniuses hastened to show respect.

They were well aware that Jia Rong was accompanied by his father’s energy clone, and if they were to fight against him, it wouldn’t even matter that the battleship likely had guards onboard; the protective energy around Jia Rong himself was enough to squash a thousand of them with just a flick of a finger.

This is the terror of the Strong Second Generation, boasting incredibly deep backgrounds.

"Don’t be afraid. I’ve said it once already: I simply want to fight with you. If you refuse, that’s when I’ll get angry. You might not realize it, but although I’m just an Intermediate Starry Sky weakling, my energy in this Genius Battlefield is not insignificant. If any of you Star Space Levels ventured into the central area, one word from me would ensure you couldn’t stay here, let alone in the Genius Battlefield. So, do you want to fight me, or should I remove you from the Genius Battlefield? It’s up to you. Rest assured, even if you fight me, I promise I won’t harm your lives."

Jia Rong spoke as he flew out of the battleship.

His body remained as small as ever, clearly not emphasizing power. Yet, his diminutive form only added to a sense of inherent weakness.

"This..."

The Star Space Level geniuses exchanged glances.

As Jia Rong said, they all understood how terrifying the offspring of an Evolutionary Beast could be in the Genius Battlefield. Other strong ones’ descendants, even the offspring of some average Star Level strong ones, might enjoy certain privileges in the Genius Battlefield, but they all paled in comparison to Jia Rong. If he wanted, he’d easily be able to expel their few mere Star Space Level geniuses from the Battlefield.

This is what privilege is.

"We’ll fight, but we don’t want any bloodshed, so we ask Lord Jia Rong to show mercy."

"Don’t worry, I won’t go too hard. I just want to prove that I’m not some so-called piece of trash."

Jia Rong’s calm voice reached the ears of the Star Space Level geniuses, making them relax a bit.

"Then, Lord Jia Rong, I’ll be the first. Please, go easy on me."

An Intermediate Starry Sky creature, who had just been discussing Jia Rong, now stepped forward reluctantly.

Among them, although all had high-level talent, this creature was the weakest, as an Intermediate Starry Sky being. The rest were High-space Level, so he was the only appropriate match for Jia Rong of the same Intermediate Starry Sky Level. It wouldn’t make sense for someone stronger to step up for the fight.

So, with gritted teeth, he agreed to fight.

"Good. Let’s begin then..."

Jia Rong’s calm expression, similar to Earth’s human visage, was extremely cold and steely.

"Lord Jia Rong, I won’t be holding back, but it’ll only be a touch-and-go."

The Intermediate Starry Sky being, as a strong one, naturally understood what would hurt a strong one the most. If he was discovered to be holding back, it could mean trouble, so after saying this, he prepared for a real battle.
