239: Help Sima Hui break through level 70

“You really are a troublemaker, kid.”

General Sima walked into Guo Feng's room, sat down, and poured himself a glass of water. “But, this matter really can’t be blamed on you.”

He said with a smile, “You’re young and full of vigor, and Meng Lilian is indeed charming. It’s normal for a young man like you to be unable to resist the temptation of beauty.”

“I really wasn’t tempted into it!”

Guo Feng emphasized seriously.

“Alright, alright.”

General Sima smiled. “Of course, you also managed to gather a lot of intelligence this time.”

“First, America’s recovery is very complex. This might be related to the mixed population and chaotic beliefs on this land.”

“Second, the dark creatures have also started to become active.”

“Third, the Moregen Family is definitely caught in internal strife now, which gives crew more room to maneuver.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Guo Feng again. “However, the downside is that they originally agreed to use the World Genius Competition rules, where your crew would fight their four crews in a round-robin battle.”

“Now, they’re playing dirty, saying that you killed an important family member and must be severely punished. Otherwise, they’ll insist on a strict best-of-five, meaning your crew must win four consecutive rounds.”

He paused, “That is to say, you can only fight one person in each round.”

“It’s a bit challenging, but my teammates are not weak; crew are not afraid of them,” Guo Feng said after some thought.

When the time comes, he could always give them repair spirit fruit.

Unlimited ultimate moves—crew could win no matter what!

General Sima then said, “Since that’s the case, then your crew should work hard.”

“Also, try to find Meng Lilian and have her testify.”

“Meng Lilian is a member of the Hus Family, one of the eight major families of the Dark Holy See.”

“Her father is about to be promoted to Archduke Bloodline, which is equivalent to our sixth-rank powerhouse. At that time, he will be able to become the head of the Hus Family.”

“So, their testimony would be more convincing than Maria Morgan’s.”

He paused, sighing, “Guo Feng, the truth isn't really important now. International relations are a game of interest trading within moral boundaries. The more you experience it, the more useful it might be to you in the future.”

“Understood.”

Guo Feng nodded.

He also understood that for the true manipulators in America right now, who died wasn't important.

Gaining benefits from it was the most important thing.

“Alright, the competition is set for three days from now, which is August 28th.”

General Sima waved his hand, “You have three days to try and find Meng Lilian and her crew. On the day of the competition, it might not just be about the competition.”

“Understood!”

Guo Feng nodded.

Then General Sima left.

Guo Feng couldn’t help but frown, not expecting that on his first day in America, he would kill an important member of the Moregen Family.

Although it wasn't his fault.

But, it did bring trouble.

Fortunately, he was strong enough and had powerful backing.

“Meng Lilian, you sure slipped away fast. Too bad, I know what your crew need.”

As he thought of this, the corners of his mouth curved slightly upward. “I said I want you to be my housekeeper, and you’re destined to be. Next time, I’ll truly use the Beast Taming Spirit Talisman. Bloodlines aren’t human, so they’re spiritual beasts, right?”

Soon, he began to cultivate.

He first cultivated the Great Dao Heart Refining Art. His divine sense had been depleted quite a bit before, leaving only eight hundred strands.

This time, he directly consumed two hundred spiritual energy primordial stones, recovering to 850 strands of divine sense.

He cultivated for another three hours, absorbing 60 spiritual energy primordial stones.

In a flash, it was the morning of August 25th.

“Panel!”

Host: Guo Feng.

Exclusive Level: 42.

Assets: 150.96M (Growing…)

Asset Growth: 150

Expenditure: 73102 / 107M.

Physical Strength: 23055.05.

Guo Feng looked at his panel and smiled: “Now I have over forty million in assets. I can’t resist, I’ll just upgrade. Increasing asset growth can also increase strength, and besides, I have nearly thirteen million in daily income, and there’s still three days until the big battle.”

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, but took out his phone and directly transferred 107 million to the special account.

“Ding! Congratulations, Host, your exclusive level has been upgraded!”

“Congratulations, Host, your asset growth has increased by 6.”

“Congratulations, Host, your physical strength has increased by 540.”

Immediately, the system’s prompt sounded in his ears, and a warm current surged through his body.

“Comfortable!”

Guo Feng was overjoyed. The further he went, the higher the physical strength gained from upgrading.

This feeling was quite exhilarating!

“Panel!”

Host: Guo Feng.

Exclusive Level: 43.

Assets: 43.96M (Growing…)

Asset Growth: 156

Expenditure: 73102 / 112M.

Physical Strength: 23595.05.

At this point, his level had also increased to 43, and his physical strength was approaching level sixty-one.

He couldn't help but feel a bit dazed!

Three months ago, when he first met General Sima at the LingNeng Military Base.

General Sima was only level sixty-one.

Now he was already level sixty-one.

However, General Sima was too abnormal; the day he could beat him still seemed a bit far off.

Wait!

He suddenly remembered, “Didn’t General Sima say he was at the sixty-ninth limit? Should I help him break through? The stronger he is, the better! Didn’t crew say before that their level was a weakness?”

Thinking of this, he immediately called General Wu Zhanyun.

A moment later, General Wu Zhanyun arrived.

“Colonel Guo, do you have any instructions?” General Wu Zhanyun asked with a smile.

“Do two things. First, post a message for me on social media, saying that General Sima was at his sixty-ninth level limit, and I helped him break through. If someone wants her father to break through to Archduke, come to the Chinese Embassy to find me within one day. No waiting after the deadline!”

Guo Feng planned to kill two birds with one stone.

“Ah?!”

General Wu Zhanyun was stunned for a moment. “This concerns General Sima. I can’t mess around. Otherwise, if you say General Sima broke through, and he hasn’t, then it’ll be a big problem.”

Guo Feng smiled, “That’s, of course, after General Sima breaks through.”

He paused, waved his hand, and a box appeared in his hand, containing five Body Strengthening Spiritual Fruit.

He handed it to General Wu Zhanyun, “You take these spiritual fruits to General Sima, and then tell him what I just said.”

“Alright!”

General Wu Zhanyun was half-believing, half-doubting.

The sixty-ninth level limit, though not as difficult as the forty-ninth level limit, was not much simpler.

Because the further one went, the harder it became.

Many people got stuck for years.

However, since Guo Feng said so, he naturally followed through.

Soon, he departed.

Guo Feng then called Lin Changyun and the others over and told them what General Sima had said last night.

“So, your crew will be under a lot of pressure next, but don’t worry, I will help your crew,” Guo Feng finally said.

“Three days from now, I’ll strive to reach level forty-eight. With my strength, winning one round won’t be a problem!”

Zhao Long said calmly.

But he was full of confidence!

However, no one questioned him!

“I will also try to improve my ultimate move. If my ultimate move breaks through to a 5x amplification, plus my Wenren Family’s secret technique, I can unleash a 10x amplification at a critical moment. There’s still a chance to win one round,” Wenren Tutu said hurriedly.

“Okay, take this spiritual fruit and eat it to see if you can break through!”

Guo Feng said, waving his hand, and another box appeared.

It contained an enlightenment spiritual fruit.

“Ah, Guo Feng, thank you!”

Wenren Tutu was overjoyed; she knew that anything Guo Feng gave was a masterpiece!

She quickly took it.

“Alright, your crew can go cultivate now.”

Guo Feng smiled, just about to let everyone leave.

At this moment, suddenly the entire embassy trembled, followed by General Sima’s hearty laughter.

Then, everyone felt a powerful aura.

“General Sima, is he at level seventy now?”

“It is said that he had already comprehended the Ninefold Thunder Strike, but his physical strength couldn’t keep up. Once he breaks through to level seventy, won’t his combat power skyrocket?”

Everyone was surprised, and Lin Changyun sighed even more.

“??”

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow. There was such a thing?

General Sima was that fierce?

And then, the news of General Sima breaking through to level seventy, along with what Guo Feng had said earlier, went viral on the global internet.

Everyone knew that Guo Feng had helped General Sima break through the sixty-ninth level limit.

By the afternoon.

Hong Qi walked in and handed him a piece of paper with very elegant English writing on it.

It meant: “You come find me.”

It left an address in a remote area of California.

Guo Feng immediately understood that it was from Meng Lilian.

“Brother Qi, tell them I’m going out for a bit!”

Guo Feng said, then walked out.
