I'm already immortal and indestructible, and you guys are still hoarding talent.

The students in the classroom also became nervous at this moment.

Now that Zhou An and the others' families have come to the school, it seems they're going to settle scores with them.

Putting aside everyone else, just Zhou An's family members wield so much power that they could easily be brought to their doom.

For a moment, the students who had participated in the hands-on activity yesterday panicked, lowered their heads, and dared not look at the podium.

They were all afraid that Zhou An and the others' families would come after them.

But they were still somewhat relieved.

After all, it was Chen Chen who made the first move, and it was Chen Chen who gave them the confidence to take action against Zhou An.

If Zhou An and the others' families want to cause trouble, they should go after Chen Chen first.

With Chen Chen holding the line, there shouldn't be any major trouble.

After all, Chen Chen is an Awakener who has awakened an S-level talent.

Zhou An and others' families should be wary of Chen Chen.

"A serious incident occurred yesterday afternoon in the alley near the school gate when school was letting out."

"Are you all aware of this?"

Guan Han immediately defined the nature of what happened after school yesterday.

These words left all the students in the class looking on in disbelief.

What does that mean?

The victim should be Zhou An, right?

Did you mistake someone for someone else?

A huge question mark appeared in the students' minds.

I don't understand what happened in between.

"Yes, yesterday afternoon, Zhou An and several other classmates threatened me. I refused, so they forced me to wait for them in the alley after school."

"The students who were in the classroom at the time can all testify to this."

Chen Chen reacted quickly; seeing that no one answered Guan Han's question, he immediately spoke up.

"Yes, I saw it."

"I saw it too, it's exactly what Chen Chen said."

...

Guan Han is helping them get out of trouble; if they don't agree, they'll be considered crazy.

"Mr. Zhou, as you've seen, that's exactly what happened."

Guan Han looked at the middle-aged man in a suit standing next to him.

Zhou Longhu nodded with a face full of shame, then turned his gaze to Chen Chen: "Chen Chen, on behalf of Zhou An, I sincerely apologize for what happened yesterday. I hope you can forgive Zhou An's foolish behavior."

When his son was taken to the hospital yesterday, Zhou Longhu felt so angry that he wanted to tear the enemy who had beaten his son to such a state to pieces.

He would be unworthy of being a father if he didn't avenge this wrong.

But after hearing his son say that the other person was an Awakener with S-level talent, his mind immediately cleared up.

He himself had only awakened a B-level talent.

We have earned our wealth today by surviving countless near-death experiences amidst the fog.

Simply staying in the city makes it impossible to have a clear understanding of an Awakener who has awakened an S-level talent.

After all, it is forbidden for awakened beings to kill each other in the city.

Only by venturing into the mist can one witness the terror of those who have awakened S-rank talents.

In other words, his B-grade talent puts him at the very top of the food chain in the mist.

Unless you're incredibly lucky, most of the time you'll just be sipping the leftovers from the gains of S-rank or higher talents in the mist.

To be precise, a B-grade talent in the Mist is just the lowest-ranking underling.

The awakening of an S-rank talent makes one a apex predator in the food chain.

There is absolutely no comparison between the two.

When Zhou Longhu learned that the person who attacked his son was an Awakened with S-level talent, he immediately slapped his son twice.

Although her son was only one level below S-level talent.

But this level is a chasm that the son can never cross.

Even if the other party is just an awakened S-level physique talent, their future achievements will definitely be incomparable to those of my son.

Offending an Awakened One with S-level talent now only results in being beaten up and hospitalized.

If one were to offend an Awakened One with S-rank talent in the future, one might not even find their remains.

Zhou Longhu was not confident in dealing with an S-level talent awakener in the city.

The best approach is to resolve conflict peacefully.

Besides, that kid is only eighteen years old, and his mind hasn't been corrupted by deceit and treachery.

This grudge can most likely be resolved.

People with different perspectives naturally handle things differently.

If they are just ordinary students.

He would have no intention of turning hostility into friendship; he would only retaliate in kind, making the other party's injuries worse than his own son's.

Zhou Longhu's sudden apology stunned all the students in the classroom.

None of them expected things to turn out this way.

Something's not right!

It didn't go according to their script at all.

What's going on?

Not only Zhou Longhu apologized, but the parents of the other children also sincerely apologized to Chen Chen.

The wording is slightly different, but the meaning is exactly the same.

The children are ignorant and hope that Chen Chen can forgive their rude and offensive behavior. As their parents, we apologize on behalf of our children.

"Actually, it wasn't anything serious, just a minor conflict, and it's all in the past now."

Chen Chen was caught off guard because he hadn't expected these people to come to apologize.

You can't hit someone who's smiling!

They've already gone this far, so it's unreasonable to pursue the matter further.

Furthermore, Chen Chen had never intended to pursue the matter against Zhou An and the others.

I already got my money's worth by ripping them off yesterday.

"This is just a small token of my appreciation; I hope you'll accept it."

"I have already educated Zhou An. If you are interested, you can take him under your wing and treat him as a junior."

"Don't worry, if he does anything wrong, you don't need to lift a finger, I'll break his legs first."

Zhou Longhu handed over a bank card and his business card to Chen Chen at the same time.

The bank card isn't the point; the point is the business card.

If Chen Chen is willing to accept it, it means that the grudges between the two parties have not only been resolved, but Chen Chen is also willing to play with his son.

An S-level talent awakener will definitely be my son's strongest connection in the future.

The son is definitely the beneficiary.

Spending a little money now is definitely worth it.

It wasn't just Zhou Longhu; the others were the same.

The potential of S-level talents makes them worth investing in.

"No problem, as long as they behave themselves, I don't mind giving them a hand when necessary."

Chen Chen accepted the bank card and business card without hesitation.

He never expected that his conflict with Zhou An would actually bring him benefits.

How much money is in the card?

Since they're using bank cards, the sum must be at least six figures.

Chen Chen smiled radiantly.

The students present were stunned by this scene, their expressions of disbelief deepening to seven or eight tenths, and they even forgot to breathe.

They really don't understand.

Chen Chen hit someone, but the person who was hit did not retaliate. Instead, they took the initiative to compensate and seek reconciliation.

Is this the true value of an S-level talent?

That's way too illogical!
