Chapter 450: River of sorrow flowing against the current
When Lu fengrou became gentle, it was especially frightening.
As they walked and chatted, Lu fengrou suddenly furrowed her brows when she heard Fang Ping"s details."Wu kuishan has a divine weapon?"
Fang ping replied immediately,"it"s made from the branches of the sky Gate tree."
Lu fengrou"s expression was uncertain. Beside her, old man Li laughed and said, "It"s not that old Wu didn"t want to do it, she just didn"t tell you ..."
Lu fengrou tilted her head to look at him and said coldly,"Why are you following us?"
Old man Li was speechless. He said gloomily, "You"ve broken through!"
"And then?"
“……”
Old man Li had forgotten what he wanted to say.
What then?
You"ve achieved a breakthrough, and I don"t think it"s of much use for me to follow.
But shouldn"t there be some movement when you break through?
For example ... Having a meal to celebrate?
After being targeted by Lu fengrou, old man Li suddenly looked at Qin Fengqing, who was following him silently, and chided,"Qin Fengqing, why are you following us?"
Qin Fengqing was dumbfounded. "Why are you picking a fight with me?
I"m easy to bully?
Why are you bullying me!
"There are a lot of people here. Zhao Xuemei, Chen Yunxi, Liang Fenghua, Ye Qing, Liu Mengyao, Liang Huabao, so many people are here. Even if Fang ping is not easy to bully, don"t bully me!
Fang ping held it in until his stomach hurt, and he tried his best not to laugh out loud.
Qin Fengqing was unhappy.
"I"m going to break through rank-5,"he said.
"And then?" Old man Li looked unconcerned. "Go ahead and break through."
Qin Fengqing was mentally exhausted. He explained,"I want to use energy essence to break through. That is to shatter all the energy stones and condense the energy into liquid. The key is that the energy room can"t reach this stage, so I wanted to ask you and teacher Lu to help me. Help me shatter the energy stones and liquefy the energy."
Old man Li"s eyelids kept twitching. Were all the kids these days so brutal?
You want to break through in this way?
Once again, Lu fengrou felt that she had fallen behind the times. How could a pauper like Qin Fengqing be so extravagant?
"I only have 6 catties of high-ranked energy stones. I"m not sure if it"s enough," Qin Fengqing said.
"Don"t show off in front of us. I didn"t even show off my 2 million credits. You"re trying to act rich here?"Fang ping said grumpily.
Qin Fengqing felt aggrieved,"when did I pretend to be rich?" I really think it"s not enough. You"re always looking for trouble. Did I provoke you?"
"You two, shut up!"
Lu fengrou berated. She could not take it anymore.
Are you sure you didn"t do it on purpose?
Also, Fang ping had just casually given away more than 200000 credits. Was he burning money?
But ... This kid brought back 2 million academic credits?
Were credits calculated in units of ten thousand nowadays?
Why did he feel like he had missed out on so much in the past two months?
Lu fengrou glanced at Qin Fengqing and thought for a while before saying,"I need to stabilize my realm for a few days. After that, I"ll help you liquify your body."
"No need, no need. Please do what you need to do. Teacher li, if you have nothing to do, please help me with it."
"I don"t have anything to do?"
Old man Li was cursing. How could this kid speak like that?
I"m the school"s biggest boss now, how can I have nothing to do?
However, after thinking about it, it seemed that it was indeed fine, so he could only say,""Alright, alright, alright. I"ll help you. Students these days are all ordering their teachers around. Do you still have the heart to respect your teachers?"
Qin Fengqing felt that he was being targeted. He said gloomily,"Fang ping often gives instructions too."
"That kid will give you divine weapons, life essence, and energy stones. Are you going to give them to him?"
Qin Fengqing suddenly sighed. "That makes sense. I"ll do it even if you give me money. Poor people are really sad."
Putting aside the conversation between the two, Lu fengrou saw that old man Li was still following them. She could not help but say,"Go and help Qin Fengqing liquify the energy stone. Don"t keep following me."
Old man Li really wanted to vomit blood.
He felt that something was wrong!
"After breaking through to Grandmaster, why don"t you chat a little? chat a little about what you"ve comprehended during your breakthrough, or talk about the catacombs "response from now on ...
Or, they could talk about the Grandmaster"s banquet.
You didn"t say anything and just drove him away.
Despite his helplessness, old man Li did not continue. He sighed and said,"Alright, I"ll go. We"ll talk later."
After saying that, he grabbed Qin Fengqing"s big bald head and walked toward the energy room.
Fang Ping"s big bald head was gone, but Qin Fengqing still had one. It just did not feel as good as Fang ping "s, but it was fine to trample on it for now.
As he watched Qin Fengqing being dragged away by old man Li by the head, Fang ping felt a little sympathetic.
Old Qin was so miserable!
Lu fengrou had just finished pitying Qin Fengqing when her expression changed."Next time, if you have a divine weapon, give it to me. Don"t give it to that old thing!"
Fang ping smiled bitterly."Of course. Of course. I"ll definitely give it to you."
Do you guys really think this is cabbages?
There was?
I don"t have any divine weapons, but I have a living hou. Do you want it?
They were right under his nose, so he could kill them at any time.
……
At the same time.
Jiao"s forest.
The Jiao shook its big head and continued to plant trees while thinking, who dug their own cesspit?
At that moment, Jiao had returned to the Jiao"s forest.
Some people valued money more than their lives.
Some demons also wanted money more than their lives.
The matters in hundred beasts forest and Sky Gate City had not been settled yet, but Jiao would rather die than stay in hundred beasts forest. Fang ping and the others had just left, and Jiao had returned.
It was going to continue planting trees, but it would not invade monster Wood City for the time being.
Wait a little longer!
When the two sides started a war or made peace, it would plant a tree at the gate of monster Wood City.
If there was a war, they would be enemies, so it didn"t matter if they planted trees.
If he made peace with them, monster Wood City would not dare to attack him, and it did not matter if it was too much.
It was a pity that he couldn"t enter Kuangqu again for the time being.
He turned his head and looked at Hope City behind him. Chef was there. Chef could already gather the power of heaven and earth. Should he find a chance to capture him?
Thinking of this, the Jiao continued to shake its head. "Let"s not catch them for now. There are experts there too. We"ll catch them when we encounter them."
……
In the teachers "villa area.
Villa No. 8.
Lu fengrou briefly asked about what had happened in the past two months.
When they heard that Fang ping had been attacked before the new year, killed a peak rank-6, extorted the two major companies, and then entered the catacombs, it caused a lot of chain reactions.
Lu fengrou felt that this guy"s ability to stir up trouble was unparalleled just by listening to him.
Fang ping continued,"I didn"t want to touch Sky Gate City before. I just wanted to take a look at monster Sunflower City. I didn"t expect things to turn out this way."
"What I was thinking at first was that we"ll wait for you and instructor Tang to break through. We"ll be stronger and lure the people from Sky Gate City out.
"Kill a few and injure a few, the kind that is heavily injured. Then let the heavenly gate tree heal them while I steal the life essence.
Now that this has happened, I don"t know if we still have a chance. "
Chen Yunxi and the others were left speechless by his words. Fang ping was so bold. He had been eyeing Sky Gate City for a long time.
On the other hand, Lu fengrou"s smile became even more gentle. She nodded and said, "There"s still a chance. Of course, the life essence isn"t important. It doesn"t matter if we have it or not.
"However, luring their rank-7 and 8 martial artists out and killing them all is still possible!
"Now that I"ve broken through, with Wu kuishan and Li Changsheng, the three of us will be enough to deal with the remaining rank-7 and 8 martial artists.
As for that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d ..."
"He has a divine weapon?" Lu fengrou asked in a low voice.
"Yes, a rank-9."
"It"s hidden very deeply!"
Lu fengrou calculated for a moment, and only spoke after a while,"Wu Chuan still owes my father a favor. It shouldn"t be a problem to get him to hold them off for a while. Find an opportunity to kill the other high-ranks in Sky Gate City!"
Now that she had entered rank-7 as well, her ability had increased greatly, and she had also begun to plan her revenge.
However, her thoughts were different from Fang ping "S. Fang ping wanted mcmau to go all out.
On the other hand, Lu fengrou was only considering the few people she had mentioned. Wu kuishan had to go, and Li Changsheng also had a deep hatred for the other party. As for Huang Jing and Liu polu, she was not prepared to call them along.
She wasn"t going to ask anyone else to help her with her personal revenge.
Fang ping did not say much. He smiled and said,"there"s no rush for this now. Instructor, stabilize your realm first. Besides, I can"t enter the catacombs now ..."
"What?"
"I"ve been forbidden from entering. "
"The military department won"t let me enter the catacombs," Fang ping sighed.
The corners of Lu fengrou"s eyes twitched. This sounded like a joke. The military department did not allow martial arts university martial artists to enter the catacombs?
I"ve really learned something today!
Alright, she could understand. This kid"s ability to cause trouble was not something that ordinary people could withstand.
"It"s hard to say what the situation is like in Magic City catacombs now.
Fang ping continued,"by the way, instructor, when things are settled in Magic city"s catacombs, let"s find some time to host a Grandmaster"s banquet."
"No need."
"It"s necessary!"
Fang ping immediately said,"this is great news. Mcmau"s grandmasters, now including you and old Li, have really reached 5 people, the same as ccmau." "However, on the surface, we"re both rank-8s, so we"re slightly stronger than them. They only have one rank-8."
Lu fengrou glanced at him and considered for a moment before saying,"Do you really think that mcmau can grow to that extent?"
At this moment, Fang ping had invested a lot of energy in mcmau.
However, Lu fengrou felt that mcmau might not be able to help Fang ping much.
These rank-1 and 2 martial artists now, could they grow to that point?
Fang ping laughed."Anything is possible. I don"t think there"s anything impossible. Now, everyone"s growing very fast. Mcmau"s pills and energy stones are now open to supply.
In the future, if he could get more life essence or energy fruits like the hundred-honing fruit, everyone"s speed would increase.
"If I go down to the catacombs again and hone my combat techniques and actual combat experience, even if I can"t enter the Grandmaster level in a short time, it won"t be difficult for me to reach the middle-ranks.
"If we really nurture tens of thousands of middle-ranked powerhouses, we can go back and make a few weapons like large-scale city-attacking crossbows. If middle-ranked powerhouses can be used as energy sources, I think we might even be able to kill high-ranked powerhouses.
It was impossible now because there were too few middle-ranked martial artists.
Even the military can"t afford it. "
In a great battle between powerhouses, middle-ranked martial artists might not be able to achieve much.
"However, if there"s a large number of them, and if there really are thousands of middle-ranked martial artists acting as blood augmentation Masters and the crossbow bolts are made of high-quality alloy, it"s not impossible for them to kill high-ranked ones.
"Moreover, in a situation where the number of powerhouses is equal, these middle-ranked martial artists can also play a great role.
"If we kill all of the other party"s martial artists and leave some high-ranked ones behind, could these high-ranked ones continue to fight?
By then, they would probably have to retreat to increase the living s.p.a.ce for humans.
"As you wish."
Lu fengrou did not say anything more. She would let Fang ping do whatever he wanted. As for the Grandmaster"s banquet, if he wanted to, then so be it. She had no objections.
After chatting with Fang ping for a while, Lu fengrou talked about cultivation issues with the other students.
Halfway through, Fang ping gave each of them a hundred-honing fruit.
In the end ... Each of them wrote an IOU, giving Lu fengrou a headache.
Was there a need for this?
Fang ping felt that it was still necessary. When he was distributing the fruits, he made it clear,"If you don"t pay up, then you"ll have to work to pay off your debts."
As for when he would return it, that could be discussed.
However, between giving and borrowing for free, Fang ping felt that borrowing was better.
At this moment, he already had a lot of IOUs on him.
His senior brothers and sisters, Qin Fengqing, Liu Dali, and Wu Zhihao all had IOUs in his hands.
After receiving the IOUs from Liang Fenghua and the others, Fang ping chuckled."Later, I"ll ask teacher li to write me an IOU too. Sooner or later, I"ll be a creditor of every martial artist I meet."
The crowd did not know whether to laugh or cry. Fang Ping"s dream ... Was great.
When that time comes, aren"t you afraid that no one will return it?
As if he could read everyone"s mind, Fang ping smiled and said, "It"s fine if you don "t. If you can beat me, then you don"t have to pay. If you can" t, then you have to pay."
They chatted for a while and then had dinner together.
The female martial artists ... None of them knew how to cook, including Chen Yunxi.
Fang ping was slightly regretful. It was such a pity.
Even if we don"t have to eat, we still have to cook. He had to ask the cafeteria to send food over.
However, it was understandable. Martial artists were too busy and didn"t even have time to cultivate. Who would put effort into this?
……
8th of March, mcmau Lu fengrou broke through to rank-7.
This matter caused a sensation in all realms.
Mcmau had gained another Grandmaster.
"At this point, the number of grandmasters in mcmau has reached 5.
As for Lu fengrou, she entered the Grandmaster realm and was quickly on the list. There were a total of 1600 rank-7 people on the global rank-7 list, but that was before. There had been some changes in the list recently. Some people had broken through, while others had fallen.
At this moment, the rank-7 ranking list was no longer a round number. There were only 1598 people.
This meant that there were fewer rank-7s who broke through than those who died.
Of course, there were actually some who had entered rank-8. At this moment, the number of rank-8 powerhouses was no longer 525, but 526, one more than before.
Lu fengrou"s entry into the ranking was not the last of the rank-7. The moment she entered the ranking, she entered the 1350th place.
On Sino nation"s rank-7 ranking list, there were a total of 320 powerhouses. Lu fengrou was ranked 296th.
The moment she broke through, she had already surpa.s.sed more than twenty grandmasters. This was also a form of recognition of Lu fengrou"s strength.
When she broke through, she conjured the scene of a Phoenix burning a tree, and her celestial bridge seemed to have changed a little, with a golden l.u.s.ter, which was also noticed by some of the strong cultivators who had come earlier.
All of this meant that Lu fengrou"s ability might be slightly stronger than her ranking.
Within a short period of time, after the fall of the old Vice-Chancellor, mcmau had added two new grandmasters, which was still a very high-profile event.
At this moment, the news of Wu kuishan"s divine weapon had not spread yet. However, this matter would probably be revealed very soon, and Wu kuishan"s ranking would also rise.
In addition, Tang Feng, one of the rank-6, had been in closed-door cultivation recently. He was probably aiming for the Grandmaster-level.
This time, mcmau"s limelight had won a great victory.
In the eyes of ordinary people and ordinary martial artists, the ones who were in the limelight were these Grandmaster powerhouses and quasi-Grandmaster powerhouses.
In the eyes of the higher-ups, the one who was truly in the limelight was still Fang ping.
A rank-5 martial artist had stirred up unrest in Magic City catacombs, and several rank-9s were at daggers drawn.
When he came out of the catacombs, he even brought back complete monstrous beasts and a large number of energy stones. The commotion that Fang ping caused was even greater than Lu fengrou"s breakthrough to rank-7. At least in the Grandmaster realm, almost everyone knew of Fang ping.
This was also the first righteous martial artist to be forbidden from entering the catacombs in so many years.
As for Qin Fengqing ... The crowd was not too concerned about him for the time being.
Qin Fengqing was also a wily old fox. However, no matter how good Qin Fengqing was at causing trouble, he was still not as good as Fang ping.
……
Qin Fengqing, who had been ignored, did not have the time to care about these things.
9th of March.
Qin Fengqing swam freely in the energy fluid and completed his first transformation.
The energy room.
"I"ve become a mutated martial artist!"Qin Fengqing laughed wildly.
6 catties of energy stones, 90000 credits. According to its previous value, it was as much as 2.7 billion. It was too extravagant for a rank-4 martial artist like him to use it to break through to rank-5.
Even old man Li"s heart ached for him when he used up the energy stones.
However, this kid had really managed to create something for him after consuming so much energy.
At this moment, the celestial bridge that appeared in front of Qin Fengqing was different from everyone else "s.
The average person was in the shape of a ring, but Fang ping was in the shape of a round pancake.
As for Qin Fengqing ... What he created was a round ball!
A solid ball!
The kind that glowed.
Outside the cultivation room, Fang ping watched for a while and mumbled,"Can you guys tell?"
Everyone turned to look at him. Fang ping said,"Bald head! Is this guy addicted? It"s not enough to shave your head, you even made your celestial bridge bald!"
"Pfft!"
The crowd could not help but laugh. They would not have expected this if Fang ping did not mention it. After Fang ping mentioned it, everyone looked at it for a while. It did look a little like Qin Fengqing"s big bald head.
"I feel that the energy concentration is not low. Does that mean that it can really be man-made?" old man Li said.
Fang ping smiled bitterly and said," 6 catties of energy stones for a rank-4 breakthrough. So what if it can mutate?" "Mcmau should be considered rich among the martial arts universities, right? "After so many years of acc.u.mulation, in addition to the many times I"ve gotten my hands on them, how many high-ranked energy stones are there?
All in all, it was less than 500 Jin.
"According to his plan, 100 rank-4 martial artists will exhaust our entire family"s resources.
What about the others?
The instructors were not cultivating anymore?
"Lower-ranked martial artists are not cultivating anymore?
"This kind of consumption can only be done by everyone themselves or with the support of their families. Instructor, tell me, how many people can achieve this in rank-4?
Forget about rank-4, those without grandmasters at home could not count on this.
"Even if there are Grandmaster powerhouses, I don"t think they can afford it. Let"s not talk about others, but Yunxi, does your grandfather have so many cultivation-aiding energy stones?"
Chen Yunxi nodded."Yes, there is. Grandfather said that he would bring me some in a few days ..."
Fang Ping"s eyelids twitched. "I"m just using you as an example. Your family really has one!"
This old man, Chen yaoting, must be crazy now!
Even if he did, it would probably be years of savings. Was he throwing money at Chen Yunxi"s cultivation without a care for his life?
While they were chatting happily outside the room, Qin Fengqing, who was inside, laughed wildly for a while. As he laughed, he suddenly said in extreme grief, "I"ve become a mutated martial artist, but I don"t have any money!"
Not only did he have no money, but he also had a huge debt of 2 billion!
This was not all, they were not even allowed to enter the catacombs.
What was he going to do with his next rank-5 cultivation?
The next moment, a figure flashed across Qin Fengqing"s mind. The real tyc.o.o.n, Fang ping!
I"m going to borrow money again!
Borrow 5 billion, borrow 10 billion!
"At worst ... I"ll sell myself to pay off my debts!"
If he borrowed too much, he would probably have to sell himself. However, at this moment, Qin Fengqing felt that this could be considered.
The key was that he was afraid that the guy would not lend it to him!
At this moment, Qin Fengqing could not care about these things. Very quickly, he remembered that he had broken through to rank-5 and was now at the same rank as iron head li and the others.
The more Qin Fengqing thought about it, the more delighted he became. Those guys who had once been riding on his head were now surpa.s.sed by him one by one, and were now on par with him.
He was a martial artist with average talent, yet he had become a rank-5 martial artist before he graduated. No one would have expected this, right?
As for Fang ping ... This guy was a pervert. Qin Fengqing had temporarily given up on the idea of catching up to him.
As he thought about it, Qin Fengqing"s sorrow turned into joy again. He laughed wildly and said, "I"ve caught up to iron head li and Yao Chengjun. w.a.n.g Jinyang is only a small rank higher than me. I"m almost there!"
This guy was very smug and arrogant. His arrogance was almost unconcealed.
Outside the room, Fang ping and the others could see him and hear him speak.
Hearing this, Fang ping chuckled and said,"this guy"s getting c.o.c.ky."
"That"s normal. It"s not easy for him to catch up to li Hansong"s progress,"old man Li said with a smile.
"That"s true. I wonder if li Hansong and the others will feel any pressure. "
Fang ping laughed. As he spoke, his phone vibrated.
The call was from iron head li.
Li Hansong felt strange. His tone was not quite right. He asked,"Fang ping, you"re a mutated martial artist too. I heard that you"ve condensed Golden Bones. I have something to ask you."
"Tell me, what"s the matter?"
"I ... That ... Anyway, it"s a little strange. I was cultivating well yesterday when my physical body suddenly turned golden."
"What?"
"I don"t know either." Li Hansong was very innocent. He said gloomily,"Everything was fine, but it changed all of a sudden. My physical body suddenly showed signs of turning into gold. I don"t think it"s all gold, but it"s about the same as peak rank-5. Am I considered a peak rank-5?"
"Suddenly changed?"
"Yeah,"
The corner of Fang Ping"s mouth twitched. "F * ck, you mutant martial artists, are you kidding me!"
Looking at Qin Fengqing, who was still ecstatic, Fang ping suddenly felt some sympathy. How pitiful!
"I have the system, and their ancient powerhouses are resurrected ... What do you, Qin Fengqing, have?"
Just because you made your celestial bridge bald, do you think you"re a mutant martial artist?
The ignorant ... How pathetic.
Old man Li had also heard li Hansong"s words. He also looked at Qin Fengqing with pity. This child was really pitiful.
Over the phone, li Hansong was still asking if there was any impact.
Would it cause any trouble?
Would it delay his cultivation?
He felt that it was a little too fast for him to achieve peak rank-5 in one day. He was not too comfortable.
He always felt that it was not a good thing to progress too quickly.
Fang ping felt that it was necessary to record these words and then play them for Qin Fengqing to hear. Was it heart-wrenching?
Also, iron head li had started to recover, but what about the others?
Why did it suddenly recover?
Was it because he had reached this stage and was beginning to recover, or was there some other reason?
