"The number one genius of the young generation in the Nine Provinces?"
Zhou Qingqing's eyes revealed a hint of surprise; she hadn't expected Ling Chen to have such a title.
"Just an empty reputation."
Ling Chen hadn't anticipated that the Heavenly Sword Tournament would be so well-known, even the ordinary female disciples of Lingyue Island knew his name.
"Achieving such high accomplishments in the outside world is not something that an empty reputation can reach."
Zhou Qingqing's gaze towards Ling Chen changed, her previous arrogance had long vanished without a trace.
She had heard of those famous geniuses of the Central Dynasty, like Peerless Sword, Liu Mengru, Sima Xiaoyao... their renown was also great among sect disciples like her.
If there was to be a ranking of talents encompassing the entire world, these people could all be in the top ten.
"Ling Chen, you injured my people. If you want to resolve this matter today, you must agree to one of my demands."
