Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Several people were perplexed about the situation, to say the least.

Who knows... Maybe the trio went out for an exchange, or maybe there was something Dorian's parents had that no one was aware of?

The Bhos sighed and discussed as a group, coming up with various speculations.

But the Sus and the Tians, who just knew about the friendship between the Ghus, Gias and Dorian, had different thoughts altogether.

But no matter what, they dared not overstep their boundaries... Especially Wei Kwo.

His eyes turned red with worry and rage.

Why?

What was that little imp up to? Was the brat secretly building to forces to one day pry the Tian group from his hands?

Never! He would never let that happen.

If the brat wants it, he would have to take it over his dead body!

.

Like so, the whole place bubbled with all sorts of emotions. But no matter what, the show must go on, and the auctions continue as usual.

And everyone had to curb their curiosity for a later date.

But the protagonists of the show that all stepped out, suddenly met each other along the exclusive private V.I.P hallway.

Eh?

Dorian, who hadn't even taken more than 10 steps after leaving the booth, was quickly taken aback after seeing several people step out of their booths as well.

(-_-)

It's not that he minded them following him, but weren't they all-powerful figures on their own? Why did they feel the need to somehow act as his bodyguards? What if he just wanted to use the bathroom? Or maybe they thought he wanted to leave. So they felt the need to escort him out as a sign of gratitude?

Well, either way, he didn't care whether they followed him or not.

After all, he had to build his popularity and make the entire world aware of the dangers to come... Especially the BIG ONE.

So the more popularity he got, the better for his mission.

Additionally, the Academy would soon be ready to take its first batch of students. So wouldn't people be the best candidates for the job?

"Grandmaster! Grandmaster! How can you be so cruel to leave me behind?"

"_"

.

Ghu Dwo's lips twitched the more he looked at his only son.

He quickly grabbed Sota by the collar and bowed to Dorian in apology: "Sorry, Grandmaster. This unfilial son of mine is troubling you again."

Dorian chuckled and waved his hands casually: "It's okay. I quite like his spirit."

Really?

Ghu Sota quickly broke out in glee while trying to break free from his father's grasps: "Hahahahahaha! You hear that, father? He said he liked my spirit!"

Ghu Sota smiled so hard that his cheeks started turning red from delight.

(^0^)

I wipe! Even the Grandmaster has recognized his greatness. So no one could ever stop his shine anymore.

Excuse me. You say you're the most handsome man in the world? Well, too bad! He was the first future disciple the Grandmaster had praised.

You day that you can get more girls than him?~ Pfff! So what? He was the first freaking future disciple of the Grandmaster!!! Beat that!

The Gias looked at the reaction between Ghu Sota and Dorian and were shocked. At the same time, they also felt a little envious as well.

Not fair. Why was the Ghu brat the only one to enjoy such closeness with the Grandmaster?

.

Ghu Dwo looked at his son and was both pleased and annoyed with him.

Sigh...Forget it.

It was Sota's blessing to get close to the Grandmaster.

Now, Chen Hou, Jung Hou, Old Hou and even their guards had long opened their eyes in shock after seeing how the Hous apologized to Dorian.

Who am I? What am I? Where am I?

F***!

What sort of situation was this?

Their eyes popped out so animatedly that any more, and it might've actually fallen off its sockets.

"This... This..., I'm not dreaming, right?"

Chen Hou swallowed hard in disbelief: "Did we just see what I think we saw?"

The Hou gang nodded their heads slowly, as though they were mind-controlled.

The situation was far different from what they expected to see.

The current Dorian whose parents were in Coma, has no way of getting power, especially when his uncle had taken over the Tian group. So how could he command such respect from these giants?

Again, why did the Gias look envious of Ghu Sota for settings close to the Tian boy?

(°∆°)

.

Dorian raised his left below at the strange but not so unfamiliar faces that emerged behind the Gias and the Ghus.

The former Dorian had also seen them once or twice but never truly knew them. After all, his personality was that of a loner. So even the Hous didn't know him as well.

The Gias and Ghus saw where he was looking and suddenly gave way as though they were creating a path for him to walk.

"And you are, Old Hou, right?"

"Yes! Tian boy. The last I saw you, you were 14 years old. And now, you've become a strong 17-year-old boy in the blink of an eye." Old Hou said, with a warm smile on his face. Of course, he was also very respectful as well.

What a joke! He just saw his good friend, Old Gia, and everyone else give this boy respect. So how can he not follow along?

"Tian boy. You might be too young to remember, but this is my first grandson Jung Hou and my other grandson Chen Hou."

Dorian looked at them and let out a slight smile: "Pleasure."

Humble. Neither overbearing nor arrogant. But yet, had a majestic aura itched into his body, as though he were born to rule a nation.

The Hous looked at him and felt they had to reevaluate all they knew about the Tian boy.

Every rumour they heard would have to get dropped because it would only make them underestimate the boy before him.

It was strange that even though he was a boy, they subconsciously treated him like an ancestor.

.

Dorian looked past the Hous and frowned.

He didn't know these people behind the Hous and didn't know if they would bring him trouble or not.

As if sensing his thoughts, old Gia fiercely stared at the guards sent by the Bhos, the Sus and the Tians.

"Leave!"

With that, the guards went back into their booths. But, on the other side of the booth, they quickly relayed all they knew.

For sure. The Tian boy wasn't simple!

And with their exit, Dorian went straight to business.

"Let's go!"
