147: Chapter 147 Allocation of Spots in the Thunderfire Small World

Jinhe City, Gardener Residential Complex.

Inside a federal resettlement apartment, at the front of the cramped living room, the television screen was broadcasting the Ocean Gathering.

"Brother Meng, your classmate Fang Zhuo is truly amazing. Winning the Legendary Group and Peak Group back-to-back—this is the first time in the Federation's history a Transcendent Martial Artist has done this, right?"

"Yes!"

Wang Meng watched as Fang Zhuo, holding the Xia Kingdom's battle flag, reached the highest peak of West Sea Island again after more than ten days and planted the flag on the summit.

He felt an indescribable pride in his heart.

This was his good buddy from college!

Heh, he really must have been blind back then to think that Fang Zhuo wasn't good enough for Bai Shiwei... Next time they meet, he would have to honestly punish himself with three cups!

He just didn't know if Fang Zhuo would still be willing to see his poor buddy...

As Wang Meng thought this, he turned his head to look at his wife; her baby bump was already quite prominent.

A wife, a child, and a warm bed—sigh, the mortgage and car loans were also on the way; he should just keep living his life well.

"Brother Meng, do you think that since Fang Zhuo has become the number one Transcendent Martial Artist on Blue Star, how much can he earn a month? How much face must he have?"

Wang Lian touched her belly and turned to look at Wang Meng, asking, "Can you ask him to help speak to your leaders and adjust your position and salary?"

"Ah Lian, don't ever bring this up again."

Wang Meng's face fell.

"Fang Zhuo and I are good classmates, and it's true that we got along well in college, but I can't go around causing trouble for others. I'll do whatever work my abilities allow and take whatever salary matches that."

"Besides, I only have this job at Tengfei Martial Arts Hall thanks to Fang Zhuo. Out of respect for him, my martial arts hall manager has already increased my salary quite a bit over the past two months."

"Fine, I won't mention it, what's with the scowling?"

Wang Lian couldn't let it go and huffed with a straight face.

Seeing this, Wang Meng felt even more bitter inside. This life had so much to look forward to...!

Martial arts... should he give it another shot?

But he was already 22 years old, and his Life Level had passed 15; the hope of awakening a Martial Aspect was slim. He might as well just keep grinding...

He hoped his future son would have martial arts talent.

Wang Meng thought this while glancing at his wife's belly.

...

In the center of West Sea Island.

After Fang Zhuo came down from the summit where he had planted the flag, The Fang Family and the Bai family both rushed up to meet him, everyone so excited they were speechless.

Master Qin, Manager Jiang Zhou, and the rest of the people from Starry Sky Group also approached in a daze.

"My dear grandson, you are now the number one Transcendent Martial Artist on Blue Star—no, the number one Transcendent Martial Artist of the Blue Moon Federation!"

Fang Dawei was beaming, spraying spit as he spoke in front of Fang Zhuo:

"You can relax your training a bit now. Get a child with Shi Wei as soon as possible. Grandma Zhou and I are both waiting to hold our great-grandson. Don't wait until you break through to the Flying Sky level; that would make things difficult."

"That's right, that's right, I'm waiting to hold my grandchild too."

His mother-in-law, Xu Xue, was the first to chime in.

She smiled until her eyes squinted, finding Fang Zhuo more and more pleasing the more she looked at him. After she finished speaking, she even winked at her daughter.

Her son-in-law had now reached the top of both the Legendary Group and the Peak Group at the Ocean Gathering, becoming completely famous throughout the Blue Moon Federation, known by the tens of billions of people across the seven life stars.

Xu Xue was afraid that if her daughter was any slower, Fang Zhuo might be snatched away by some vixen at any moment!

"Mom, what are you rushing for?"

Bai Shiwei didn't dare to refute her father-in-law, but she wasn't polite with her own mother.

She had already brought up the matter of having a child to Fang Zhuo, and these past few days... she had also been actively pushing for it, but having it brought up in front of so many people made her inevitably feel a bit embarrassed.

After Fang Zhuo chatted with his family for a while.

Master Qin walked up: "Fang Zhuo, congratulations!"

"I really didn't expect your Life Level to reach level 49 so quickly. Tsk tsk, to be honest, I still can't believe it even now."

"I was lucky, and Chairman Xiao also gave me a little help."

Fang Zhuo said truthfully.

By luck, he meant having the return system.

Director Xiao Yuan had indeed given him a tube of diluted red jellyfish fluid; without this resource, he really wouldn't have been able to quickly leap his Life Level to 49 after finishing the Legendary Group matches.

"No need to be humble; you are already the Federation's number one Transcendent now! You are only 21 years old; becoming a Flying Martial Artist is just a matter of time, and there is great hope for becoming a Cosmic Martial Artist!"

Master Qin was generous with his praise. After complimenting Fang Zhuo, he turned the subject: "How do you plan to arrange the quotas for the Thunder Fire Small World?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Zhuo showed a thoughtful expression.

Winning first place in the Peak Group had also won 10 more quotas for the Xia Kingdom. Originally, Master Qin and Wang Jinhua had agreed to split them 50-50.

Now that the winner was Fang Zhuo, the quotas naturally shifted to him as well.

In other words, Fang Zhuo had 15 quotas for the Thunder Fire Small World in his hands. Besides himself, he could bring 14 other people in to cultivate.

"Brother Wang... why don't you arrange the quotas for the Peak Group?"

Fang Zhuo asked.

"No need, one thing is one thing, and another is another. You won these quotas, so they should be yours." Wang Jinhua smiled and said: "Remember, the strong never rely on handouts."

"Besides, I have my own quotas."

Master Qin also smiled: "He topped the Legendary Group in the last Ocean Gathering and hasn't used his quotas yet. Perfect, I want to give you a detailed introduction regarding the Thunder Fire Small World."

"Entering this Thunder Fire Small World deep in the ocean to cultivate has a miraculous effect on improving Body Control; you already know this."

"Furthermore, you need to know that one person can only enter this Small World once. The best time to enter is when your Body Control reaches the Heaven-Reaching level."

"Only one person can enter once?"

Fang Zhuo was surprised.

The latter part was easy to understand. The Thunder Fire Small World had existed on Blue Star for over a hundred years, and various countries must have figured out quite a bit of cultivation experience.

Master Qin explained to Fang Zhuo: "Yes, the Thunder Fire Small World is a world unto itself; the laws of heaven and earth are independent of the outside world. This is the rule within it."

"Also, the entrance to the Thunder Fire Small World is not open at all times; it is only open for this half-month period after the Ocean Gathering ends. Consider your list as soon as possible, and when the time comes, bring the people to find me, and I will take you all over there."

"Okay."

Fang Zhuo nodded.

One can only enter the Thunder Fire Small World once, and it is most suitable for martial artists whose Body Control is at the Heaven-Reaching level—to put it bluntly, isn't that just a Flying Martial Artist?

After all, in the current Blue Moon Federation, with a population of tens of billions across seven life stars, not to mention many Transcendent Martial Artists, Fang Zhuo conservatively estimated there were definitely over a thousand.

How many Transcendent Martial Artists could cultivate their Body Control to the Heaven-Reaching level?

Just him and Wang Jinhua.

Now that Wang Jinhua had broken through to become a Flying Martial Artist, it was only him!

"Shi Wei, Fang Jing, you two are still young. Do you want to wait until the next Ocean Gathering to go in and cultivate?"

Upon hearing this, both Bai Shiwei and Fang Jing revealed conflicted expressions.

Fang Zhuo looked at his wife and younger sister, adding: "Decide for yourselves."

After Fang Zhuo finished speaking, he looked at his father-in-law: "Dad, your Life Level has now reached level 39. You are only lacking in Body Control. Once your Micro-Perception is perfected, there is still time and opportunity to try and break through to the Transcendent level."

"This time, you will come with me into the Thunder Fire Small World to cultivate."

Bai Qiming was stunned upon hearing this and subconsciously pointed at himself.

The Thunder Fire Small World!

As a veteran Advanced Martial Artist, he was not unfamiliar with it at all. How many peak Advanced Martial Artists were plagued by limitations in their control and had no opportunity to even catch a glimpse of the Transcendent level?

Many people would go bankrupt, exhaust all their schemes, or even sell their lives to various martial arts nations just to beg for a quota for the Thunder Fire Small World, yet they could not obtain one at all.

His own son-in-law was actually considering giving him a quota?
