131: Chapter 131 The Martial Artist Standing on a King-Level Sea Whale

Manager Jiang Zhou's eyelids twitched after being called an idiot to his face.

But seeing Wang Jinhua's face as pale as paper, with a deeply sunken wound on his chest, he held back and simply nodded indifferently: "Fine, have your manager come find me when the time comes."

"How bad is the injury?"

Master Qin asked, looking concerned.

No matter how powerful Wang Jinhua was, or how renowned his title of Unrivaled Transcendent Martial Artist was, his Life Level was ultimately only level 49, and he had clashed head-on with a King-level Exotic Beast.

The injury looked quite frightening.

If he couldn't compete due to the injury when the Peak Group tournament started, that would be a major disaster.

Master Qin felt endless self-reproach in his heart. What kind of cosmic bloodline did that Silver-Winged Giant Beast possess? It had been able to shield itself from his perception and suddenly approach the yanhai ship. In his shock and anger, he had pursued it.

"About ten days of recovery should be enough; it will be fully healed before the Peak Group tournament starts, don't worry." Wang Jinhua said indifferently, the look in his eyes toward Master Qin no longer holding the respect of the past.

If they weren't so unfamiliar with each other, and if Master Qin wasn't a Peak Flying Martial Artist, he would have called him an idiot too.

"That's good."

Master Qin took out a jade box: "Take this for your recovery."

Hearing Wang Jinhua's words, Fang Zhuo quietly let out a sigh of relief in his heart. It was good that Brother Wang would be able to recover before the Peak Group tournament started.

Otherwise... he would miss this opportunity.

It was possible that once Wang Jinhua recovered, he would directly break through to become a Flying Martial Artist.

By then, he wouldn't be able to fulfill his bet with Chairman Xiao, and he would lose 50 grams of red jellyfish fluid! No, after passing through Shi Wei's hands, it should be 400 grams!

Right now, Fang Zhuo could say he had a good degree of confidence in challenging and defeating Wang Jinhua when the Peak Group tournament started.

His resource reserves were sufficient. Before departure, everything had been returned via Bai Shiwei. Currently, he had a total of 72 stone milk crystals and 8 portions of diluted red jellyfish fluid in his hands.

Once he reached the top of the Legendary Group at the Ocean Gathering, he could absorb source energy that same day to strengthen his body and attempt to advance his Life Level to level 49.

His Body Control was also progressing toward the Tongtian realm. He had already taken two of the five steps on the path of Tongtian, and the subsequent training to strip away his five senses could also be completed before the Peak Group tournament started.

When his Body Control officially entered the Tongtian realm, the Thunder Fire Blade ultimate move 'Thunder Fire Echo', which he had long since comprehended, would naturally be able to be executed.

By then, he would be strong enough to fight Brother Wang! It could be said that everything was completely under his control!

"Fang Zhuo, why do I feel like your eyes... have a faint hint of wanting to fight me?" Wang Jinhua lay on the deck, glancing sideways at Fang Zhuo.

"Fine, it seems breaking my record earlier has made you a bit arrogant. After you finish the Legendary Group, let's spar."

"I'll give you some proper pointers." Wang Jinhua gritted his teeth, his eyes moving back and forth between Fang Zhuo and Bai Shiwei.

"My pleasure."

Fang Zhuo replied with a smile. It seemed Brother Wang was still brooding over the fact that he hadn't let go of Shi Wei and had used his foot to catch him...

After the King-level Exotic Beast attacked the yanhai ship, the entourage on the deck all returned to the cabin one after another. Having walked through the gates of hell, they were all deathly pale.

For the remainder of the journey, Manager Jiang Zhou and Master Qin did not dare to be careless again, taking turns standing guard on the deck.

The yanhai ship rode the wind and waves all the way. There were no more complications, and two days later, they arrived in the western part of the ocean.

"That must be West Sea Island, right?"

Inside the cabin, Fang Zhuo pointed out the window. A black dot had appeared on the horizon, growing larger and larger amidst the wind and waves, gradually revealing the shape of an island.

"That's right."

Bai Shiwei got off the bed with an excited expression and also walked to the window.

...

West Sea Island.

On the beach, a flock of seagulls circled.

Below, the area was packed with people, men and women, young and old. They were all martial artists from various countries on Blue Star who had come to watch the Ocean Gathering, mostly Intermediate Martial Artists and Advanced Martial Artists in terms of Life Level.

"Grandma Lan, look, that warship is so majestic! It looks even bigger than West Sea Island... It must be the warship for the Xia Kingdom's representative team, right?"

In the crowd, Fang Jing was barefoot, stepping on the sand, gesturing excitedly toward the ocean.

She and Grandma Li Lan had set out from New Moon and had been on West Sea Island for a few days. During these past few days, the representative teams from various countries on Blue Star had arrived one after another.

Now, only the Xia Kingdom and the Small Island Nation were left.

"Yes."

"Get ready to go welcome your brother."

Grandma Li Lan squinted. A Transcendent Martial Artist's eyesight was far superior to that of an ordinary martial artist, and she instantly made out the characters 'Yanhai' on the giant ship in the distance.

"They're finally here!"

Fang Jing's figure shot out, constantly pushing forward through the crowd like a little wild boar.

Truth be told, though she looked small and thin, she possessed immense strength. In just over two months since going to the Xinyue Li Family, after awakening her Martial Aspect 'Fire Phoenix', her cultivation had been unstoppable. Her Life Level had now reached level 18, not far from becoming an Intermediate Martial Artist.

...

"Toot—!"

A long, melodious whistle echoed continuously between the ocean and West Sea Island.

The yanhai ship slowly decelerated and docked at the West Sea Island port.

"We're here!"

"Hurry and disembark. First, go to the hotel to check in, then go to the Ocean Gathering venue to take a look. Tomorrow, we can watch our Xia Kingdom's Transcendent Martial Artists compete!"

The entourage turned into a stream of people, scrambling to disembark. Fang Zhuo and his family also merged into the crowd and got off the ship together.

"Brother~!"

Fang Jing pushed through the crowd, suddenly rushing out and throwing herself at Fang Zhuo.

"You guys came so late, I missed you to death."

"You've gotten quite tanned. Is it tiring training with Grandma Li Lan in New Moon?" Fang Zhuo hugged Fang Jing and asked with a smile. It had been over two months since they last met, and his sister's Life Level seemed to have soared quite a bit.

"A little."

After nodding, Fang Jing dropped down from Fang Zhuo and looked to the side, saying: "Sister-in-law, Grandpa, Mom, Dad, and also..."

"Grandma Zhou."

Fang Zhuo gave her a look.

"Hello, Grandma Zhou."

Fang Jing called out indifferently, making Fang Dawei so angry he puffed out his beard and glared.

Before Fang Dawei could say anything, Fang Jing said to Fang Zhuo: "Brother, good luck at the Ocean Gathering tomorrow. I'll come find you tonight to give you some top-secret information."

As she said this, she slipped away to the side.

The young martial artist Shi Zheng gave Fang Zhuo an honest smile, thanked him, and also ran off to the side.

"This..."

Li Ru watched her daughter's back, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

At this moment, a huge 'splash' sound rang out. A monstrous wave surged up on the ocean, and a violent sea breeze blew over.

Everyone on the beach looked toward the ocean in unison.

They saw the monstrous waves on the ocean crashing toward the coastline continuously, and a massive sea beast with a spine line over a thousand meters long was floating on the surface of the sea.

"Another King-level Exotic Beast?!"

Fang Zhuo's eyelids twitched, and he gripped Bai Shiwei's hand tightly. He was about to tell his family to move inland.

But he heard Master Qin laugh: "Don't worry, this King-level sea whale is driven by someone."

"Driven by someone?"

Fang Zhuo was surprised.

In the Blue Moon Federation, martial artists focused on physical tempering and had always relied only on their own martial prowess. What kind of person could actually have the ability to drive exotic beasts? A special secret technique?

Just as he was thinking this, the King-level sea whale rapidly broke through the waves and approached the coastline. Everyone could clearly see that, standing on the back of this massive sea beast, there was actually a person!
