532: Is it that the Mountain Moving Corps is not worthy?

"I really am Wang Chen."

Seeing Zhang Weiming's reaction, Wang Chen felt a bit helpless.

Good heavens.

You say 'it's an honor to meet you,' but your actions are quite honest.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chen took off the mask on his face, allowing Zhang Weiming to see his appearance.

"It's really you?"

Zhang Weiming, who was quietly retreating, stopped in his tracks when he saw that overly handsome face.

"No way..."

"Wang Chen, weren't you on the mainland? How did you end up in the Huiguang World and even join the Fierce Tiger Legion?"

Having watched the Global Prodigy Competition, Zhang Weiming was naturally familiar with that handsome face. He asked, somewhat surprised.

"I came to the Huiguang World for training."

Wang Chen jumped down from the tree and walked over to Zhang Weiming, saying.

"Oh."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Weiming nodded, not feeling any confusion.

When Wang Chen participated in the Global Prodigy Competition, he could already contend with the Six-Turn peak Geniuses from various countries. With his strength, staying on Blue Star offered little room for further improvement.

Coming to the Huiguang World for training was entirely reasonable.

After all, here, there's no shortage of anything but wild monsters and demonic creatures. As long as one is bold enough, even a few Evil Gods capable of contending with Wang-level experts can be found.

However...

After nodding, the expression on Zhang Weiming's face became subtle again.

There were two legions stationed by the Dragon Country in the Huiguang World: the Fierce Tiger Legion and the Mountain Moving Legion.

Wang Chen, this Prodigy, came for training and joined the Fierce Tiger Legion instead of the Mountain Moving Legion.

Does this mean the higher-ups think my Mountain Moving Legion isn't worthy?

Muttering to himself, Zhang Weiming's gaze towards Wang Chen became somewhat resentful for a moment.

"Uh..."

Being stared at with that look, Wang Chen felt a bit unnerved and quickly asked:

"Brother Zhang, are you here at Gods Sigh Mountain for a mission?"

"No, it's a personal endeavor."

Zhang Weiming shook his head and said without reservation:

"The Legion hasn't had much going on lately, so I came out to earn some extra money."

"You don't know, my girl is already six years old and she's in a growth spurt. I plan to get her more resources to improve her Physique."

Zhang Weiming looked young, but he was actually thirty-one this year. It was just because he had reached Seven-Turn that his face showed no trace of age.

"Speaking of which, if my girl can achieve even half of what you have, Brother Wang Chen, I'd wake up laughing in my dreams."

As he spoke, Zhang Weiming looked at Wang Chen with admiration.

The eighteen-year-old number one Prodigy in the world, who suppressed all Geniuses globally with his Rank 4 strength. Having half of Wang Chen's talent would mean at least a Wang-level expert in the future.

"Brother Zhang, you're joking. She'll definitely be stronger than me."

Wang Chen waved his hand awkwardly, not expecting Zhang Weiming to be so polite.

"Oh no, I know what my girl is like. I'm self-aware."

Zhang Weiming smiled and muttered self-deprecatingly. Then, as if remembering something, he said a little awkwardly:

"After the Global Prodigy Competition ended, that little rascal became your fan, Wang Chen. It's fate that we met today, so... could you sign an autograph for my girl?"

As he spoke, he looked at Wang Chen with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"No problem."

Wang Chen naturally had no objection. A dignified Seven-Turn Professional asking him for an autograph was something he couldn't even have imagined before.

After all, before he became a Awakener, the Guardian who suppressed the entire Dongling City where he lived was merely a Rank 4 Awakener. That was someone the former Wang Chen had to look up to, an unreachable big shot for ordinary people.

He took out a pen from his spatial ring, ready to experience what it felt like for those big stars to sign autographs.

However...

Feeling Wang Chen's gaze, Zhang Weiming was a bit embarrassed, his expression incredibly awkward.

It was impossible for him to carry a photo of Wang Chen with him. After all, he was a grown man; if others knew, they would probably think he was a pervert.

"I almost forgot, what's your child's name, Brother Zhang?"

Seeing this, Wang Chen quickly understood the situation after a brief thought. He smiled and casually took out a palm-sized light pink gem from the spoils he had previously obtained.

This item was plundered from the Mountain Troll tribe's lair. It was still worth some gold coins, so giving it away wouldn't hurt.

"...Her name is Zhang Chenxi."

Zhang Weiming was so embarrassed he could almost dig out a two-bedroom apartment. He said awkwardly.

Wang Chen smiled, condensed his Qi at his fingertips, wrote two blessings on the gem, and then handed it to Zhang Weiming.

"There you go."

"Brother Wang Chen, thank you so much."

Receiving the gem, Zhang Weiming carefully put it away as if it were a treasure. Then, he waved his hand and took out the corpse of the Long-Armed Demonic Ape again.

"You've gone to trouble, so the Materials from this demonic monster lord's body will be my return gift."

"Brother Zhang, you're too polite. It's just a small favor."

Wang Chen naturally waved his hand in refusal. A gem was only worth a few coins; its value couldn't be compared to the Long-Armed Demonic Ape's Materials. He didn't want to take advantage of Zhang Weiming.

After some back and forth between the two.

Seeing that Zhang Weiming insisted on giving it, Wang Chen quickly changed the subject:

"Brother Zhang, if you have any free time next, perhaps you could tell me about the situation of the areas occupied by wild monsters and demonic creatures after leaving Gods Sigh Mountain."

The Mountain Moving Legion's stationed location was extremely close to Gods Sigh Mountain. Wang Chen had originally wanted to obtain some information from the Mountain Moving Legion, but he didn't go because it was a bit of a detour.

Now that he had encountered Zhang Weiming, he naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity.

"Alright."

Seeing Wang Chen say this, Zhang Weiming nodded:

"Then let's find a quieter place. The smell of blood is too strong here; it would be bad if it attracted a demonic monster King."

He put away the Long-Armed Demonic Ape's corpse, collected some Materials from the surrounding wild monsters, and then led Wang Chen away from the original spot.

...

When Wang Chen entered Gods Sigh Mountain, it was already past noon. By the time he passed through the depths of Gods Sigh Mountain, night had already begun to fall.

Crackling.

Sparks burst from the blazing bonfire, and the light it emitted dispelled the surrounding gloom.

Occasionally, rising flames licked a wild boar, the size of a calf, roasting it and releasing more fat, filling the surrounding ten-meter radius with a rich aroma.

Zhang Weiming rotated the wild boar to ensure even heating, while looking at the three little ones gathered around the bonfire with a strange expression.

A small, exquisite azure Sacred Dragon, a pure white Nine-tailed Fox, and a small tiger with the character 'Wang' written on its forehead.

"So this is a Sacred Beast?"

"In non-combat state, they look quite cute."

Thinking to himself, Zhang Weiming looked at the three little ones, who were almost drooling, and quietly took a photo with his data terminal, planning to show it off to his daughter when he returned.
