60: Chapter 60 He Yi'an's Methods: Poaching Talent
After Fang Zhuo finished testing his punch force, he sat down cross-legged in satisfaction. As if sensing something, he closed his eyes and focused his mind, using visualization to sense his Martial Aspect.
In the boundless starry sky, the fiery red planetoid 'Red Flame' transmitted terrifying waves of high temperature along with information:
[Person in Aspect: Fang Zhuo] [Life Level: Level 30 (Advanced Martial Artist)] [Mental Power: Level 30] [Body Control: Micro-Perception Perfection (Combat Power Multiplier 8x)] [Martial Aspect: Red Flame (Superior)] [Innate Divine Ability 1: Purification.] [Innate Divine Ability 2: Devour.] [Innate Divine Ability 3: Unknown.]
Meanwhile. Starry Sky Base City, Outer District.
In an adventurer's inn, the room was dimly lit and sparsely furnished, containing only a bed, a small table, and an old fan that was creaking.
Ding Xu sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed. Resting quietly in his palm was a pill that was scarlet all over—it was the blood explosion pill!
"I originally wanted to grind up another 1-2 levels before taking the blood explosion pill, striving to push my Life Level to 35 so I could climb higher in the Group, but that's not necessary now..."
"Fang Zhuo, I will kill you with my own hands!" Ding Xu's expression was ferocious, his temples throbbing wildly.
Since arriving on Origin Star by spaceship and staying in Starry Sky Base City, he hadn't had a single good night's sleep, dreaming of Ding Shixun every night.
"Not just you; once I kill you, your father must die too. All of this is because of him!" Ding Xu fumed.
If your father wasn't such a piece of trash, unable to hold on after using his Martial Aspect a few times, how could all this trouble have happened? Shixun wouldn't have been killed.
No rush, take it slow. Once you die, Wang Jinhua will never waste any more energy on your family, and when that time comes, your father won't be able to escape either!
Your wife is a genius. To prevent future trouble, I will also find an opportunity to send her down to join you.
Thinking of this, Ding Xu tilted his head back and swallowed the blood explosion pill.
The violent medicinal properties spread through his body, and he immediately groaned in pain.
"Hold on, Level 33, open for me!"
After gritting his teeth and enduring for half an hour, Ding Xu's expression gradually softened, eventually turning into uncontrollable laughter.
He clenched his fist, feeling his strength increase by a notch, and in his mind, he had already imagined the scene of Fang Zhuo dying by his hands.
Level 33 Advanced Martial Artist, base punch force 31,000kg.
Body Micro-Control Small Success, combat power multiplier 4x; he could normally erupt with over 120,000kg of punch force!
"No matter how much of a genius you are, even after breaking through to Advanced Martial Artist and advancing your Body Control, you'll at most reach Micro-Perception Great Success. A 6x combat power multiplier is very high, but with a base punch force difference of three times, you are absolutely no match for me!"
Ding Xu even silently cheered Fang Zhuo on in his heart: You must hurry up and break through to Advanced Martial Artist.
Just then, a video call popped up.
"Wife?" After connecting, Ding Xu looked at He Yian on the screen, his expression softening: "It's so late, are you still awake? I will avenge Shixun with my own hands. Everything is going smoothly so far; I've successfully broken through to Level 33. You don't need to worry."
"No." On the screen, He Yian was wearing an ice-silk nightgown, her plump, fair body faintly visible. She shook her head and said, "I always feel uneasy."
"Axu, why don't you come back? You don't necessarily have to be the one to avenge Shixun yourself."
For the couple Ding Xu and his wife, money wasn't really an issue, and they had connections—both sides had relationships with Transcendent Martial Artists.
To deal with Fang Zhuo, within the rules set by Wang Jinhua, it wasn't hard to spend money to find an expert.
"Why?" Ding Xu was puzzled. After his Life Level broke through to Level 33, dealing with Fang Zhuo, who had just broken through to Level 30, was absolutely a sure thing!
"That little beast could never be my opponent!"
After he analyzed the strength comparison bit by bit.
He Yian's reason eventually overcame her emotion, and she nodded: "Then you must be careful. Remember, when a lion hunts a rabbit, it uses its full strength. Once he appears in the Wilderness Area, strike with thunderous force!"
"Don't worry, I will." Ding Xu acknowledged.
"Good. I've also hired people to approach his wife. I believe it won't be long before you receive good news."
He Yian said, the corners of her mouth curling up unconsciously as she crossed her legs on a low stool.
"You mean...?" Ding Xu smiled.
"That's right. I want their relationship to fall apart, to first mentally devastate Fang Zhuo!" He Yian said calmly. This wasn't hard to do.
Especially for a newlywed couple who met on a blind date and immediately got married. How deep could their feelings be? As long as you swing the hoe well, there's no wall corner you can't dig down!
"Haha, that's perfect. Why didn't I think of that? You're so clever, wife...!" Ding Xu laughed heartily. He had originally been worried that Fang Zhuo would turtle up inside the Starry Sky Group building and not come out.
With this trump card, once it's confirmed that Fang Zhuo has become an Advanced Martial Artist, he would release the news. He didn't believe Fang Zhuo would be able to hold back then!
The next day. Jinhe City Martial Arts University.
On the asphalt road leading to the training building, Bai Shiwei was dressed in a grey training suit, wearing sneakers, her steps light and brisk.
"I've gained a lot of insight into Body Control these past two days. What my husband said is quite useful. Body Micro-Control... there's a chance!"
"When I go to Origin Star, I can give him a surprise!" Bai Shiwei was thinking.
Two girls walked briskly past her, dressed quite provocatively in small camisoles and micro-skirts that barely covered their chests and buttocks.
Both girls were quite good-looking, above average.
"Sigh, I heard from Xiaomei that she hosted an S-Class Genius from the Starry Sky Group last night. I'm so envious. To have had a relationship with such a genius martial artist, even if it was just for one night..."
A thin girl said, covering her mouth, seemingly whispering to her sister, but her voice was just loud enough for Bai Shiwei to hear.
"An S-Class Genius from the Starry Sky Group?" Another girl with narrow eyes and a slightly chubby figure asked in surprise: "Xiaomei is really making it big on Origin Star...! By the way, what did that genius look like? Was he good in bed?"
"Here, look for yourself. He's not handsome, but very masculine. His physique looks powerful. If... I'm afraid I would die."
The thin girl said, taking out her phone. It showed a photo of Fang Zhuo. She carelessly exposed it toward Bai Shiwei's direction for half a second.
These two provocatively dressed girls didn't say anything more and quickly sped up their pace to leave.
The task given to them by their employer He Yian was just this; there was no need to do more. Planting a seed of suspicion was enough.
Jinhe Martial Arts University's public martial arts room.
Neural reaction testers, punch force testers, wooden dummies, and various other equipment were all available, not inferior to the martial arts gyms under large martial arts groups.
After entering, Bai Shiwei found an empty corner and practiced her footwork and fist techniques on a wooden dummy, recalling the essence that Fang Zhuo usually imparted to her.
"Micro-Perception requires a martial artist to perfectly combine muscles, bones, and breath, just like this..."
Before she knew it, the sun had already set. Bai Shiwei packed her bag, preparing to leave and go to the school cafeteria for dinner, when a boy walked over.
"Hi, Bai Shiwei!" Li Zhengyang flashed a gentlemanly smile, not getting too close, but maintaining a polite distance. "What a coincidence, did you just finish training too?"
Out of the kindness for the fact that he had lent her money before, Bai Shiwei said: "Yeah. Is there something? If not, I'm leaving."
"Actually, there is. There's a martial artist lecture. I don't know if you're interested." Li Zhengyang deliberately kept her in suspense.
He had received guidance from an expert before coming here; that expert was, of course, He Yian.
Li Zhengyang's martial arts talent was quite good. In his freshman year, he had awakened a Mid-tier Martial Aspect ranked in the top ten. He had always liked Bai Shiwei's looks, but because she hadn't awakened a Martial Aspect, he had never really made a move.
Until recently, when he heard that Bai Shiwei had awakened a Superior Martial Aspect after getting married, he could no longer suppress the liking in his heart.
