176 Fighter Anteriority - Part 4

"Calm down, Dad! It's just Steel Gophers! Moreover, the Hero League must send someone to watch over him, he is your grandson after all!" Kang Yun Cheol consoled his worried father.

"I am not worried about his safety! But it's his thoughts that are worrying me! How can he be careless in his first fight in the wild!" As Hero Instructor, Kang Myung-Chul was not only teaching how to fight, he instilled a good mentality to the hero he took in.

Moreover, in the survival phase was where the participant was tasked to survive, not to kill the wild beast. Avoiding any beast was the best way in this survival phase.

However, not only his grandson did not try to avoid the beast, he wanted to take the beast down. From the tone of his grandson, Kang Myung-Chul perceived his grandson was being overconfident.

"You should blame your son for that, Dad! His brain is broken to let a three years girl get engaged!" A female resounded from the other side of the sofa, her tone frosty and cold.

"Sang-Hee!" Kang Yun-Cheol yelled.

However, the lady was not only afraid of her husband, but she also stared back with her frosty gaze. Kang Sang-Hee, she was Dong-Woo and Myung-Hee's mother.

She was 40, but she looked like a lady that just entered her 30s.

"What? You still feel what you are doing right? If you did not sell your three years old daughter out, do you think Dong-Woo will run away from home?"

"Stop! Stop! What actually happened?" When the talk turned into a quarrel, Kang Myung-Chul realized there was something wrong.

He was clueless that her grandson and granddaughter ran away from home. What he knew was that Kang Seo-Yeon took them somewhere for training.

"I have been working hard for the so-called Kang Family! I spent less time with my children for the so-called Kang Family! Then what did I get? Only got to know that my daughter was sold because a kid from a bigger family fancy her?"

"Your greediness has crossed the line! You can live with the so-called Kang Family alone! From tomorrow, you have to look for a new guy to replace me to take care of the family business. I am going to live with my daughter starting tomorrow!"

"You can ask your son if you want to know, Dad!"

After saying that, Sang-Hee rose from the sofa and headed back to her room. Yes, her room, she slept in a separate room after knowing the engagement matter.

Sang-Hee was the Big Lady of the Kang Family but also the one who took charge of the Kang Family's business.

She did all the work to raise the family's status. Thanks to her effort all these years, the Kang Family managed to expand its influence through the business.

Of course, she had to sacrifice her time with her children. However, she did not expect her crazy husband would do this. She was angry and disappointed.

Kang Yun-Cheol also rose from the sofa, but he met an intense gaze from his father. He let out a sigh and sat back.

"Let's watch this first, I will explain everything to you later!"

Kang Myung-Chul nodded and looked back at the broadcast. His grandson would have his first battle against the wild beast, so he wanted to look at this first.

Kang Dong-Woo advanced slowly, there was no sound at each of his steps. Kang Myung-Chul praised his grandson for this.

Beastial Forest was a dense forest, one would find a tree every five big strides. When the distance between him and Steel Gophers was at eight meters, Dong-Woo stopped and hid his body behind a tree.

"Focus on my palm… Focus on my palm…" Dong-Woo muttered as he clenched and opened his fist a few times.

Then, he looked toward the left, only then Kang Myung-Chul saw his grandson's friend. Dong-Woo raised his three fingers and the friend nodded.

The three fingers were a countdown. When the three fingers were folded down, the broadcast moved up.

Dong-Woo's movement was fast as the broadcast turned blurred. Less than three seconds, the blurred broadcast cleared once again. It showed a different sight, Dong-Woo arrived at two Steel Gophers' back.

Kang Myung-Chul rose from the sofa and his eyes focused on his grandson. He saw the two hands reaching the Steel Gophers' neck. Soon bone-cracked sound transmitted through the broadcast.

Dong-Woo looked up and his friend already killed the other one with the same method.

Kang Myung-Chul stood in shock. He could not believe this was his grandson. Putting aside the amazing speed, killing Steel Gophers with a bare hand surprised him more.

Just like its name, its fur was as hard as steel. But his grandson managed to break it with his bare hand.

Even Kang Yun-Cheol was surprised to see this. He remembered that his son joined an academy, 'so she was not lying back then, that Xing Heero might be Sun Zhou Yi's Master, '

"Dong-Woo! next is my turn, if we encounter three, I am two you get one!"

"Haha… alright!"

Next, Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun began to skin their prey. They left the meat and took the steel fur with them.

Kang Myung-Chul was surprised as his grandson seemed to be proficient in skinning the Steel Gophers. Only then, he realized this was not his grandson's first time battling against a wild beast.

No, not only this was not the first time, his grandson was having massive experiences dealing with the wild beast. It could be seen by how good Dong-Woo skinned the Steel Gophers.

Just like this, Kang Myung-Chul postponed all his activity and focused on watching his grandson's broadcast for three days.

He watched every action his grandson did during the survival phase. If he had to score, Kang Myung-Chul would give a perfect score for his grandson.

He gave a perfect score, not because Dong-Woo was his grandson. He gave a perfect score as a hero instructor, not as a grandfather.

His grandson and his friend's performance were excellent in this survival phase. In the last night of the survival phase, "I will make a little celebration for him!"

But then, a deep frown appeared on his forehead as he realized his grandson did not stay at the same house as him.

He came out of his room and headed toward his son's room. Without any greeting, he asked, "Where is Dong-Woo staying now?"

Seeing how cold his father treated him, Kang Yun-Cheol let out a sigh and replied, "He stays at Xing District in the outer region! He stays there with his sister!"

"Ah, that district…" Kang Myung-Chul nodded and left.

Miao Miao Noodle Shop

Since Fighter Anteriority started, Heero and Han Ying extended the opening hours to 1 am. It was under the request of the customers who wanted to watch Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun's broadcast.

Heero agreed under the customer's enthusiasm. Both kids were beginning to gain a fan even though they were not an official hero after three days of broadcast.

At 1 midnight, Heero clapped his hand and yelled, "Alright guys, it's 1 am already, I will close the shop now. Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun will sleep soon, but you can meet with them tomorrow! I am going to throw a small celebration for them, you can meet them here at lunchtime!"

Tomorrow, the survival phase will be over. The kids were allowed to go home and came back the day after tomorrow to continue for a direct fight amongst the participants that passed the survival phase.

These people were people who stayed around here. They could not afford to buy the exclusive broadcast, that was why they came here to watch the broadcast.

At Heero's words, the customers rose from their seats while thanking him.

"Thank you, Boss!"

As they walked out, Heero could hear the heated discussion amongst his customers. They were talking about what the two kids did today.

Together, Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun managed to kill a Silver Level Beast. The way they fought also left a deep impression on the customers.

After the shop was empty from the customers, he began to tidy up the shop. After he finished everything, he noticed Han Ying was still in the kitchen. She was currently washing the dishes.

He hugged his hard-working wife from behind and rested his head on her shoulder.

"You have worked hard, why don't you rest and let me finish the work~" Heero whispered to Han Ying's ear.

"Huhu… Thanks to you, even though I worked all day, I don't feel tired at all~"

"You are not tired?" Heero's eyes showed brilliance in his eyes, "Then we can have one round here…"

"What are you talking about? We are in the kitchen…" Han Ying was certainly embarrassed.

"Hoho… Haven't you heard a kitchen play? I read that on the forum, it says kitchen play could deepen our relationships. Don't worry, this place is safe, I already locked the door…"

After saying that, Heero began to take off his battle partner's gear and tried the legendary kitchen play.
