Chapter 150

Chapter 150

Huang Fuxing discovered that Ji Jingqiu hadn’t left the Buddha Country quickly, but had stayed for a while.

He checked, and during this time, Ji Jingqiu did nothing, just sat quietly there.

It seemed he felt that he wouldn't be able to meet True Buddha in person for some time, so he specially prayed before leaving...

A warm current welled up in his heart, this young man was indeed a devout believer of True Buddha.

Being able to bring Ji Jingqiu back into the sect was proof that the Unsurpassed True Buddha Sect was far from over!

Huang Fuxing raised his head, gazing at the Buddha who once brought hope to the sect but also plunged it into despair.

He sighed softly.

"We’ll buy. Hope to establish trust through this opportunity, and maybe we’ll purchase more Luohan fruits from you in the future."

In a moment of silence, Huang Fuxing, Yin Wushuang, and Zhang Bu Zhou...

"Examined, and found that the Celestial Warrior Limit is quite a challenge."

After sending a long string of messages, Huang Fuxing opened a conversation with his teacher, reporting the exchange he just had with Ji Jingqiu.

Fortunately, Ji Jingqiu wasn’t discovered by them...

The Martial Federation was established on the foundation of Hanhai Academy, members spread throughout the Federation, a once sunken martial arts pride, not enough to make her violate the tradition of the Academy.

"Right, how’s the Heavenly Road? Is the Ke Family still causing trouble?"

She gently raised her hand, brushing aside a strand of hair, recalling the series of events that occurred during this summer.

Yue Youcong pondered, "What’s so special about that Ruan Qing?"

This was a problem that could give some people a headache.

"Yes, this time our Academy has eight new arrivals."

Ning Fengyuan nodded, the several martial artists, all strong figures of the Bright Moon Warriors, had been polished to perfection in the True Seed Realm.

Including the "Taishan" from Dragon Tiger Dojo, who was just half a step away from becoming a Grandmaster, Long Qingyang.

"Nine Continents have a large number of ‘Unknown Areas.’ Local forces or newly rising powers will try to expand their territory by exploring these areas."

Huang Fuxing was somewhat annoyed, "How can this guy keep entangling us like this? We’ve been grinding it out for almost half a month! It’s an honor to add bricks and tiles to the Unsurpassed True Buddha Sect, right? Why be so picky about it? He quickly replied, "This is the incense offering for True Buddha, there’s no bargaining, you want it, you take it, no returns! There are others waiting!"

Subsequently, Yang Xin reported to her the arrangements for the recent events.

At least the summer was finally coming to an end.

"Have there been any news about the Grand Martial Arts Tournament arrangements?" Yue Youcong asked.

Unsurpassed True Buddha Sect had once planted a sapling of a different species, the Luohan Tree, in the Ocean of Minds, bearing Luohan Fruits, for True Seed Realm martial artists to increase the success rate of reverse transformation innate.

They finally made contact with the world’s "reality."

Huang Fuxing patiently explained to the customer,

Leng Dao was indeed a former martial arts pride, but this didn’t mean he had to give face.

After a long conversation, she left the deep red laboratory, heart full of satisfaction.

With Ji Jingqiu’s growth rate, he wondered how high Ji Jingqiu would stand after a month.

To get the customer to help settle the bill was an important step, then came the delivery of this consignment for Ji Jingqiu, not through his own courier company, but by entrusting a friend.

"Speaking of...” Yue Youcong paused, her eyes peculiar, "Theoretically speaking, Ji Jingqiu should be in the same period as these new arrivals, right? Then, is this batch of Four Guardian Stars Rankings going to include Ji Jingqiu?"

"Shenjing Realm, preparing to find the Mu Family's Mu Xinfeng in formation."

"Enough." Ning Fengyuan pondered, judging Ji Jingqiu by unknown means, he had suffered losses in the past two years when encountering Bright Moon.

Yan Ruhuo laughed cuttingly, "They are several good neighbors, including the surrounding Sacred Civilization."

This person is now forced to change his name to "Zhang Santao."

"Of course there are obstacles, and not small ones." Yan Ruhuo laughed, "But overall, it’s going smoothly."

"The Federation is also preparing to expand from this aspect, developing land that belongs to us."

"Fine, I wanted to ask you for an interview, are you free recently?"

"Xian Yan, not bad, there’s been progress in martial arts." Ning Fengyuan’s face softened slightly, "About to transcend the Heart Phase, right?"

She couldn’t help but feel frustrated, Yue Youcong massaged her brow, she was the president of the Martial Federation, on par with the Dao Field's Daozi, besides receiving a lot of resource support, she also needed to handle some of the Academy’s daily affairs.

Dragon Tiger Dojo.

"That place is too large. The previous exploration found the oasis covers nearly half the Federation’s actual planet territory. Now, it seems we underestimated it."

The Battle Coordination Department held a high status in the Federation, especially for the Nine Continents' exploration, most would need the Battle Coordination Department's approval.

Body, martial arts, battle skills... they had reached their personal limits.

"Expected in the next ten years, the share we sell externally will be reduced by at least half, this year is likely to be the lowest price in the next decade!"

Yan Ruhuo helplessly said, "We can’t control the Ke Family, if they want to cause trouble, let them do so. Just don’t bother us in our exploration of the Nine Continents."

Ning Fengyuan nodded thoughtfully. "That should be enough for the kid. Add him to the list; he's called Ji Jingqiu."

【As I Am, So Is the Mountain】: Achuan! How’s your martial arts progressing? I’ve entered the academy, and the competition here is intense! 【Achuan】: Indeed, it’s intense! 【As I Am, So Is the Mountain】: Did you know, this year, a peer of ours named Ji Jingqiu has emerged on the Four Guard Stars. He’s about our age and is almost at the top! 【Achuan】: Actually... I am Ji Jingqiu.

This wind brought someone who defied conventional explanation.

He came from an ordinary family and never fully "sold himself" to any major power. After reaching the peak, he chose to join the Federation's War Coordination Department and became a disciple of a vice-minister.

Yan Ruhuo nodded in deep agreement.

"Old Master Ning, I’m disturbing you again!"

This had nothing to do with talent; it was purely due to his short cultivation time.

Of course...

He replied promptly, "Sure, give us a delivery address, and we’ll handle the delivery. And, pay first! It’s the old rule, no room for negotiation."

Yangxin added, "Also, the recruitment for the next Sea Martial Association requires your final decision."

"Even within the same continent, the structure of civilizations can vary greatly."

"By the way, there’s a special case I need to report." Yangxin suddenly remembered something. "The Coldblade from the Divine Forge sent us a recommendation letter, recommending a first-year student named Qing Shan."

Everyone had heard about Ji Jingqiu’s situation. During the approval process last semester, the guy hadn’t even stepped onto the path of martial arts.

This time, the Star Chart update was for the previous generation of martial artists.

This year’s quota was only two, one for Ji Jingqiu, and there was no way to charge for it. The minimum target couldn’t be met; what to do? Only to make it hard for the buyer.

The old man didn’t even have time to raise his hand in a formal gesture when he was surprised to see Shi Xuanzhen raise both hands.

"This year, the Bodhi tree faced some issues, and we had to pay more than usual to barely secure the quota for external sales."

Through the projection, the white-haired elder and Shi Xuanzhen sat opposite each other, pondering, he said:

"Mr. Bone, we’re very sincere, but can the price be lower?"

The price offered was actually the highest at the moment.

"Why are you so close to Ji Jingqiu now, supporting him with both hands?"

Compared to them, the current Ji Jingqiu was still lacking.

"Yes, junior has two matters to attend to this time." Yan Ruhuo smiled. "The first is to select five young martial artists from the current generation to participate in the exchange tournament in a month."

The elder was speechless.

Ning Fengyuan shook his head and asked no more.

After sending this message, Huang Fuxing felt oddly nervous.

It could be said that the reason the Supreme Buddha Sect has managed to survive in recent years is largely due to the Bodhi Fruit, which not only provides the sect with a massive economic foundation but also brings certain hidden “connections.”

Yue Youcong stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, turning her head to look down at the city still immersed in the last vestiges of summer.

"We must use our Radiant Flame Federation’s unique enthusiasm to respond to their ‘enthusiasm’!"

Ning Fengyuan looked forward to Ji Jingqiu in a month.

A hearty voice rang out, belonging to a man over two meters tall, with a robust and muscular build, and a rugged and bold face with thick, knife-like eyebrows.

The two exchanged a glance, the meaning in their eyes clear.

"Yes."

"They want to test our limits, and we also want to test theirs. The higher-ups have one requirement for this battle: win!"

Huang Fuxing nodded in satisfaction. Good, this account is settled! He glanced at the contact list again, wondering why Ji Jingqiu hadn’t added him as a friend yet...

"Quite unique."

Autumn was approaching.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"Star Chart..." Yue Youcong paused, suddenly realizing, "Is it time for the semi-annual ‘Welcome’?"

"Really?" Ning Fengyuan was surprised. "Even bigger?"

As for Zhang Buyou...

"Ji Jingqiu..."

...

"Any geniuses appeared in the academy this year?" Yue Youcong asked.

The world he existed in wouldn’t surprise him, no matter what.

Like the society's recruitment.

Summer always brought unpredictablewinds.

The new law school’s Law King used the topic to recall everyone in the central area and took the opportunity to conduct a purge within the sect.

"Must win, absolutely win, with no doubt!"

It was indeed fast, half a year had passed in the blink of an eye.

Looking back on the spirited arrival at the Four Guard Stars half a year ago, today’s self was a stark contrast, much more calm and composed.

The mess from the Ke family and Ji Linyuan’s incident was a confusing and complicated account, no one could untangle it.

If all went well, Yan Ruhuo would ascend to the Heart Phase, begin to establish himself in the War Coordination Department, gradually take power, and eventually succeed to the position of vice-minister.

But now there was a problem...

A special envoy from the Federation’s capital hurried to the Crimson Lab as soon as the shuttle landed, first visiting the old Grandmaster stationed on the Four Guard Stars.

Yan Ruhuo contemplated, "Since it's Elder Ning's recommendation, I'll add him."

Cold Blade was the Martial Arts' Sun of the previous generation and should now be challenging for the Heart Realm.

Huang Fuxing touched his nose.

Yan Ruhuo suddenly paused, gazing up at the late summer sky of this planet, recalling his earlier inquiry about who Elder Ning thought could reach the peak in this generation, and Elder Ning's answer...

As the Sun of this generation had yet to be decided, it was natural to select from the Moon Warriors.

"Cold Blade?" Yue Youcong's interest piqued, "The holder of the 'Celestial Sword' title from the previous generation?"

Next, it's either extreme Ascension or waiting until the end of the Grand Martial Arts Tournament to directly break into the Divine Realm.

And this "task" was in Huang Fuxing's hands.

"This Grand Martial Arts Tournament is different from previous ones. The 'Arena' will be in the Oasis!"

"There are several students in this year's first year who show promise, with a good chance of breaking through the fifth limit of the Celestial Being." Yang Xindao said.

The reason was simple.

An urgent internal meeting was in session.

"Yan Dongshun, Wan Cheng... Both are Moon Warriors from the past two years, under twenty years old."

Every year, the True Buddha Sect would offer a portion of its shares for certain Federation forces to bid on.

Moreover, there was still a month to go.

Yan Ruhuo spoke gravely,

"This is truly impossible..." Yan Ruhuo was at a loss for words. Reaching the Grandmaster realm was considered a foundation for the Federation.

Ji Jingqiu scratched his head as he looked at the terminal's message.

Yan Ruhuo's voice deepened.

"For the Shackles Realm, I, Cold Blade, and Yue should be enough."

As the other party's message remained unanswered, Huang Fuxing's heart finally settled.

The Four Guard Stars opened once every six months. Before the next batch of warriors arrived, the Star Chart would be rearranged, featuring the warriors from the previous phase.

Although the Bodhimanda's bidding was assigned to him, the sect had a minimum quota, and anything above that was his profit.

Ning Fengyuan's lips curled in a smile, "They contacted us on their own initiative? Let me guess, is it because we've started making contact with the world across the wilderness?"

After chatting with his teacher about the recent situation, Huang Fuxing felt a bit heavy-hearted.

...

"Ji Jingqiu?" Yan Ruhuo's eyes flickered, "I've heard about him recently, but isn't it too early to include him in the Moon Warriors?"

For instance, the position he currently occupied had a substantial profit margin.

"I'm still considering the Heart Realm and the Celestial Being Realm."

On this day,

This was also why Huang Fuxing dared to guarantee to Ji Jingqiu that he could secure a Bodhimanda.

Ning Fengyuan nodded, impressed by these young talents.

"How's the local culture and customs?" Ning Fengyuan asked with enthusiasm.

Not long ago, the True Buddha Sect was inexplicably disturbed, and the source of this disturbance was from the central region.

Sigh, hopefully, after receiving the Bodhimanda, he can smoothly reverse Innate Perfection and take another step forward!...

As she reported, Yue Youcong's thoughts wandered.

"The Star Chart of the Four Guard Stars."

Speaking of which... Six months ago, among their group, who were the most likely candidates to reach the peak?

[Cicada]: I am Ji Jingqiu!

After all, the Bodhimanda was in the True Buddha Sect's hands, and certain forces still had a chance to purchase it. But once it fell into the Federation's official hands, there would be no way to acquire it, as even the officials within couldn't get their share.

"For the True Seed Realm's exchange tournament, there's still more than a month left."

But until today, those who signed the so-called Mutual Aid Treaty with the Federation only started to acknowledge them.

As expected.

"Not yet, but I heard that the Federation's higher-ups will soon select some young warriors to prepare for the exchange tournament a month later."

After listening, Yue Youcong casually nodded.

"The second task is the arrangement for the Grand Martial Arts Tournament, and it's been decided."

"The increased price" was to balance the accounts.

He opened it and saw it was a "buyer," and his expression relaxed.

Yue Youcong understood.

He started to believe it.

...

Huang Fuxing's heart sank.

"Mr. Gu, why is the price of the Bodhimanda this time more than double the usual price?"

After deleting all records of Ji Jingqiu's "landing" in the Buddha Country, Huang Fuxing checked again to ensure no loose ends before exiting the Buddha Country.

If the other party refused to purchase, his account would be hard to balance...

Due to the limited attendees, this temporary meeting was extremely brief, with only three participants.

This question left Yang Xindao speechless.

If the other party was decent, she would do them a favor, but even the minimum requirements from previous years weren't met, accepting them would lower the Sea Martial Association's standards.

Yan Ruhuo spoke gravely,

... Crimson Laboratory.

"A friendly exchange tournament?" Ning Fengyuan narrowed his eyes, "An exchange tournament with whom?"

"How is this exchange tournament arranged?"

One day, he and his teacher would make the True Buddha Sect regain its principles and lead the True Buddha Sect back to greatness.

He had temporarily learned that Ji Jingqiu was still quite a distance from the top tier of the Moon Warriors.

As he stepped out, a summer wind carrying the heat of the season greeted him.

"White Deer Shi Bo asked me to represent him, so one vote is for my master, and one is for White Deer Shi Bo," Shi Xuan Zhen explained.

"By the way, who are you planning to invite for the other realms' exchange tournaments?" Ning Fengyuan asked curiously.

Given the excessive propaganda by the Divine Might Group in previous years, the backlash in public opinion was expected.

After a long while, the other party finally replied.

This has caused quite a bit of trouble for their faction.

The other party replied, "We understand the rules."

The other party was still haggling over the price.

She entered the Four Guard Stars half a year ago.

...

Among them, Ying Longsheng, due to a mishap during the formation of his Power Body, has been demoted to the second tier of martial arts geniuses.

It's time for the biannual "Welcome" event.

"Yes, there is still one vacancy. I came here to consult with you, Old Master Ning. You have always been in charge of the Four Guard Stars. Is there any young Warrior in this generation that meets your standards?" Yan Ruhuo smiled.

...

His master is the leader of the Old Law School. Although the Old Law School is currently declining, it hasn't been completely defeated and still holds some important positions.

"Then let's decide by vote. Raise your hand if you agree to entrust the Ten Thousand Dharmas Heritage to Ji Jingqiu for enlightenment."

Yan Ruhuo smiled, "From what we can see, they obviously made contact with the Nine Realms much earlier than us. But in the past ten thousand years, they never shared this information. Now that they know we've entered the Nine Realms, they finally can't sit still."

All of this is thanks to a certain "transfer student" who descended like a divine soldier.

"What is your second task?"

Ning Fengyuan mused, "When is the exchange tournament?"

"No Grandmaster?"

"This time, including us, there are four civilizations. From the True Seed Realm to the Heaven Man Realm, there are five matches per realm. The tournament format is a round-robin."

"Hmm, who are the other participants?"

However, since Old Master Ning approves, adding him wouldn't hurt. According to the intelligence they now have, just the top three should be enough to win the True Seed Realm exchange tournament.

Who is Zhang Sandao?

"You came here with a mission, didn't you?"

And "more" is his profit margin.

Ning Fengyuan nodded, "So you came to the Four Guard Stars to find a few Bright Moon Warriors?"

If conditions allowed, he would very much like to go and see for himself.

Representing his master, who is the current Dao Master, is Shi Xuan Zhen.

Summer is coming to an end.

"Exchange tournament?"

"How is the situation in the Nine Realms recently?" Ning Fengyuan asked.

It seems the meeting would proceed without him regardless. The old man said listlessly, "Alright, I'll personally visit the Four Guard Stars in the next few days to bring the Ten Thousand Dharmas Heritage. It will also be a good opportunity to meet our new Dao Guardian."

Regarding this, Huang Fuxing had long been prepared!

Ning Fengyuan said softly, "Lagging behind will make others look down on you. This holds true in any era."

The Federation has existed for ten thousand years, during which the highest level of Supreme Grandmaster's heritage has never been interrupted.

First, the breakthrough of the sixth limit, then someone breaking the record before the Power Body formation, forcefully topping the seventh level, and finally an unexpected selection tournament...

At this moment.

While deep in thought, the terminal message notification sounded.

[Handle the aftermath properly, don't let the New Law School people find any suspicious points, especially the destination of the Bodhimanda Fruit]



This is the problem he faces now.

"Hmm, the specifics are still unclear."

Strictly speaking, Zhang Sandao's strength is actually quite strong, but he chose the wrong opponent.

He entered the Four Guard Stars through a special channel, and strictly speaking, his qualification approval should have been officially passed not long ago, making him a "newcomer" of this batch.

Ning Fengyuan nodded without comment.

Belonging to the Sea Martial Association, Yang Xin found Yue Youcong for an "interview?" Yue Youcong, who had just finished her daily meditation, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What interview?"

Thinking of Ji Jingqiu, Ning Fengyuan couldn't help but think of a certain "original family" of the boy.

"Good."

Heaven pity me, he didn't ask for an exorbitant price.

Vast Sea Academy, Sea Martial Association.

Breaking through the sixth limit of the Heaven Man Realm is just the threshold to see her.

The price of the Bodhimanda Fruit is already high, doubling it would make even a major force wince.

Yue Youcong immediately lost interest, "Then let's wait and see. If they meet the minimum requirement of previous years, we'll take them into the Association. If they can't even meet the_minimum_requirement": "no",

"next_steps": "let's_wait_and_see"

Returning to the landing point in reality, a series of message notifications sounded in his terminal.

[See_me_as_see_mountain]: I am truly Zhang Sandao!

Ji Jingqiu suddenly remembered.

Isn't Yue Shimei the current leader of the Sea Martial Association?
