Chapter 499: Underground Champion

Cheng Juan leaned on the chair lazily.

Qin Ran was truly not interested in many things.

Cheng Juan was observant. In the past, she was interested in the violin, but in the recent year, she seemed to have lost interest in it as well. He figured that the only thing that could gain her interest now was…

A fight.

1

He obviously did not advocate this.

However, she would definitely be interested in a competition between the world’s top hackers.

He could even take her to meet the Hacker Alliance’s Chairman.

Cheng Juan explained the situation to her. Qin Ran quickly replied—

[Not interested.]

On the other side, Qin Ran had already alighted from the plane.

Four vans from the Mas family were waiting for their arrival.

There was a triangular flag on the left side of the van, and she casually took a look at it.

Qin Ran walked towards the last van and sat on the last row of seats.

She continued to use her phone.

Cheng Juan sent her a question mark.

He was surprised that he had miscalculated her interest. [You’re not even interested in this? What else are you interested in?]

It wasn’t as cold as the first few days of February. Qin Ran was wearing a black down jacket and even buttoned the hood on it.

She looked at Cheng Juan’s message and replied to him. She then fished out her earpiece and put it on.

Cheng Mu, carrying the suitcases, entered the van after her. The van had two-seater and four-seater seats.

He scanned the van and then took a seat beside Qin Ran.

Carlo answered a call and said a few words to Xu Yaoguang and Second Uncle Xu.

He then left hurriedly.

Xu Yaoguang, Second Uncle Xu, and Carlo were also on the last van.

There was an empty seat beside Carlo.

Cheng Mu also sat beside Qin Ran on the plane, so Xu Yaoguang did not have the opportunity to speak to her.

1

Second Uncle Xu originally wanted to talk to Xu Yaoguang. Seeing him pondering about whether to sit beside Cheng Mu, he did not speak further.

The atmosphere in the car was solemn.

“Young Master Xu, how long will the journey take?” Cheng Mu had stayed there for more than 6 months and was familiar with the roads. He could tell that this wasn’t the road to Continent M’s boundary.

Xu Yaoguang looked up at the sky. “We will be going through the mountains and will reach by tomorrow morning.”

1

“Will there be a rest stop along the way?” Cheng Mu asked while nodding. “We can toast some bread.”

The Xu family members sitting in the car frowned. Couldn’t he tell the urgency of the matter? How could he still want to stop to toast bread?

But because he was Cheng Mu, someone from the Cheng family, they didn’t dare to talk back and could only swallow their annoyance.

Xu Yaoguang shook his head and paused before saying, “No, we cannot stop.”

“Okay.” Cheng Mu expressed his regret.

Four hours later, the car stopped at an intersection.

After waiting for 3 minutes, about 10 cars drove over.

A tall man with brown hair alighted from the last car and sat directly beside Carlo.

Both parties did not speak and went their separate ways.

The car continued on its journey.

Two hours later, the car stopped at a stronghold.

Carlo alighted the car first and opened the door for the man with brown hair.

The sky was bright.

Under the morning light, they could see that the man was almost two meters tall, wearing a T-shirt, and was very muscular.

“Mr. Bo Te.” Carlo stood beside the car and greeted respectfully.

The man with brown hair nodded slightly.

But he didn’t know that it shocked the rest of the Xu family members.

Although the Xu family had helped to open the economic lifeline of the Mas family, they did not have the same status.

Mr. Carlo, the leader of the Arena, had the highest position of those who interacted with them.

Why did Carlo greet the man with brown hair so respectfully?

Bo Te?

Who was he?

“Young Master Xu?” Second Uncle Xu’s heart jumped, and he looked to Xu Yaoguang for an answer.

Although Xu Yaoguang and Elder Xu had visited Continent M previously, this was the first visit of many Xu family members.

Xu Yaoguang pondered for a long while, and there was a trace of seriousness in his cold eyes. He shook his head and said, “Grandfather and I have not seen him before.”

Qin Ran and the others slowly alighted the car.

She took out her earpiece and pulled down her hood. February wasn’t as cold as December. However, Qin Ran always wore long sleeves even in summer.

She put her hands in her pocket and looked towards Bo Te.

Finishing the conversation with Bo Te, Carlo turned to Xu Yaoguang and the others. He took two steps towards them with his hands behind his back.

He wasn’t as respectful when speaking to them. “Your residential area is the third district. The first district is Mr. Bo Te’s training site. Do not enter, else you will bear the consequences.”

Cheng Mu stood beside Qin Ran with the suitcases.

He looked at Bo Te and could sense a dangerous aura.

“Miss Qin, do you know him?” Cheng Mu turned to Qin Ran and asked softly.

Second Uncle Xu laughed as he saw his expression.

Not caring, he took his equipment and walked towards the third district.

The Xu family members did not think that Qin Ran would know who Mr. Bo Te was.

Qin Ran lowered her head and pulled up her hood. “He’s the Mas family’s Underground Champion. The Mas family owns the world’s largest Underground Arena. Every Underground Champion has an extraordinary ability. You can instantaneously have high status as long as you win in the Arena.”

Her voice was soft, but they could understand her.

Although Carlo’s Mandarin was subpar, he understood what she said.

Hearing Qin Ran’s explanation, he said, “Young Lady, you must be experienced since you know who Mr. Bo Te is.”

He was surprised. Bo Te was famous in the Underground Arena, and many people knew him. He didn’t pursue this further but kept a mental note of Qin Ran.

Every Underground Champion had a high status. Other than the Mas family, other forces would spend money to fight for it.

Even though the Underground Arena had been operating for many years, there were only four Underground Champions.
