World's Best Martial Artist

Chapter 776 The Rich Don't Understand The Pain Of The Poor

In the office.

Chen Yunxi said with a face full of admiration,"Fang ping, the school is much better now after what you've done." "The low-ranked students are all cultivating combat techniques, waiting to select members to participate in the competition. The middle-ranked martial artists are all cultivating, and the high-ranked martial artists are all preparing for a big battle ...

"This way, mcmau will perform its own duties, and there will be no more chaos and restlessness before ..."

Chen Yunxi had always felt that Fang ping was the best.

The facts proved that it was indeed so.

A simple exchange match had solved many problems.

Fang ping chuckled and said,"it's nothing much. I just went with the flow." "By the way, for the participants this time, whether it's through the back door or whatever, pull some dirty tricks and let Fang Yuan participate!"

Chen Yunxi was all smiles."Alright. So you're going to let Fang Yuan walk up the stage officially?" she asked.

Fang ping looked at her in surprise. After a while, he coughed dryly and said,"That ... Through some channels, tell the various martial arts universities! Those who defeated Fang Yuan would be rewarded with one catty of energy stones! Or resources of equal value or anything else!

I'm just telling this brat that she's really too weak!

The catacombs martial artists could kill without batting an eye. Even on the ground, they were still weaklings.

"Martial artists of the same level can beat her up like she's playing. Let's see if she still has the face to mention going to the catacombs!

"This girl, I didn't do anything for a few days, and she incited her classmates to go to the catacombs with her. She's throwing her life away!"

Chen Yunxi suddenly felt extreme sympathy for Fang Yuan. Your brother was too ruthless!

There's actually an extra reward for defeating you!

"You're a middle-stage rank-3 martial artist. You're already considered weak if you participate in the competition. Forget about the additional rewards, you'll lose even without you.

Now that you have one ... You'll probably be so defeated that you'll start to doubt your life!

"When the time comes, mcmau will pull some underhanded tricks and let her be the first to fight in every battle. She will lose every battle ...

When she thought of this, Chen Yunxi said sympathetically,"isn't that too cruel?" Would she be able to take such a huge blow? "Fang ping, Yuanyuan is only 16 years old after all ..."

Fang ping sighed,"she can't even accept this little bit of failure. Do you expect her to accept something even more unacceptable?"

When you participated in the championship, you weren't even given a chance to go on stage. Big lion said that you weren't suitable for the competition and that you should just work as a logistics personnel.

"At that time, you didn't even know about the catacombs, but didn't you manage to survive it?"

"That's different ..."

"It's the same!"

Fang ping laughed."There's no need to worry about this. In martial arts cultivation, it's better to suffer a little loss in the hands of one's own people than to suffer a loss in the hands of the enemy! At the very least, our own people won't kill her. "

Fang ping continued,"I'm planning to visit the Vice-Chancellor in capital city these two days. I don't know what's going on." "When I return from capital city, I'll be going to the catacombs ..."

Fang ping paused for a moment, glanced at Chen Yunxi, and laughed again. "Don't go into closed-door cultivation for the time being. Polish your realm properly. It's not a good thing to rely on natural treasures to force your way up from the mentality-vitality fusion realm to rank-7.

"Although you often go down to the catacombs, you don't have much combat experience. At least, you haven't experienced many rank-6 battles.

It'll be troublesome if you lose control of your rank-7 strength without careful consideration. "

"I know,"

"That's good. "

"……"

……

Fang ping explained to Chen Yunxi, and then settled mcmau's Affairs.

On the 6th of December, Fang ping set off for capital city, ready to see Wu kuishan's condition.

……

At the same time as Fang ping moved.

The capital.

In a courtyard house.

The three absolute beginning realm experts had all arrived. They surrounded Wu kuishan, who was floating in the middle, and all frowned.

"What's his condition now?"

Nan yunyue looked for a moment before frowning,"Logically speaking, he should've been able to come to his senses by now whether or not he was able to fuse with the Dao of the prime essences. Otherwise, he would've died a long time ago.

He's not dead yet, but he's not awake yet. It's been almost 20 days. "

Li Zhen crossed his arms and stared at Wu kuishan for a while. He shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. Maybe he's digesting profound Jade monarch's Dao."

As the two of them spoke, Zhang Tao kept staring at Wu kuishan.

After watching for a long time, Zhang Tao began to touch his chin. After a while, he seemed to be deep in thought. The other two looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"I should grow a beard," Zhang Tao said slowly."The kind with a long beard so that I won't be treated as a young man."

"……"

Nan yunyue's expression was extremely unsightly!

You still have the mood to talk about this at this time?

Zhang Tao did not care about them and said with a smile,""It's nothing. This fellow is quite interesting ... I told him to devour the profound Jade's Dao before, and now he really did listen, but he didn't devour it ..."

Zhang Tao seemed to have seen something and laughed again. "It's really interesting ... He seems to have wrapped Xuan Yu's Dao outside his Dao!"

"What do you mean?"

Li Zhen didn't quite understand.

Zhang Tao looked at him with disdain and continued,""In other words, on the surface, he's using the profound Jade's Dao, but he's using the profound Jade's Dao to nurture his own essence Dao. The outside is the profound Jade's essence Dao, but the inside is his own.

"I don't know if this is one or two DAOs. He took advantage of his weakened essence Dao to fuse it into his body ..."

"No conflict?"

"Why didn't his origin clash?" Li Zhen asked in surprise.

Under normal circumstances, such external Dao paths would conflict with one's own origin Dao.

Zhang Tao touched his chin again and said after a long while,"His essence Dao is a bit special! Boundless love?"

Zhang Tao laughed and said,"maybe that's what it means." Inclusive origin Dao "means" protect "?" The profound Jade's origin Dao also needs to be protected, so he hasn't had any conflicts yet ... But this isn't good ..."

Zhang Tao muttered,"in that case, once he awakens, he might be in the absolute beginning stage!" It might not be a good thing. Xuan Yu's Dao was too strong, while his own Dao was too weak.

Once he relies on profound Jade's essence Dao to reach the apex, even if he nourishes his own essence Dao, it will be difficult for him to reach the apex in the future!"

"That's right." Li Zhen nodded."You've already reached the peak in one Dao. It's really too difficult to reach the peak in a second Dao!"

"I need to change!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Tao's spiritual power fluctuated and he said,""Little Wu, don't think about becoming a Paragon first, there's no rush! If possible, let your origin Dao digest a portion of the profound Jade's origin Dao and advance together!

In this way, even if you didn't have peak battle power, you wouldn't be restricted. Instead, you could walk far on both DAOs!

After that, it's up to you to reach the peak with two DAOs or rely on your own Dao. It's up to you to choose whether you want to absorb the Dao of the profound Jade in the end!"

Wu kuishan did not reply, but the aura on his body had changed slightly.

At this moment, Nan yunyue suddenly said,"Zhang Tao, you can even see through the changes in his origin Dao?."

"Use your heart to comprehend!"

"Besides, I've seen a lot of things, so I'll get used to it," said Zhang Tao with a smile. I can often sense the changes in the Dao of origin and can roughly guess what it is ..."

The two of them were speechless.

Li Zhen glanced at him and said,""Cut the crap. When are you going to give me the energy stones?"

"Look at you ..."

Zhang Tao sneered."I had someone send it over before you arrived. It's only a ton. Why are you so anxious?"

"Let's not talk about this first ..."

Zhang Tao avoided this topic and said thoughtfully,""Isn't it easier to explore two DAOs before reaching the peak? "You all know that after reaching the Paragon level, your Dao is too strong, and it's too difficult to walk out of a second Dao!

If, after walking 0.99 on one path, you don't reach the peak, but instead go to the second path and walk this path to 0.99, can you directly reach the peak of two paths?"

"It's not that simple!"Li Zhen said, exhausted. It was already difficult to walk one path, let alone two! To take two unreliable paths to reach the peak together, or to take a reliable path to reach the peak, which one was easier?

If Zhang Weiyu were to take the second path, would he be able to walk out?

Even if he could, how long would it take?

Instead of that, it's better to let him reach the absolute aperture realm now. This is the benefit you'll get. Don't keep thinking about those unreliable things. "

"Not reliable?"

Zhang Tao said unhappily,"you call this unreliable?" The martial Dao was to grow through exploration! How could you call it unreliable? If you say it's impossible, it's possible for Wu kuishan to walk such a path now. Of course, Xuan Yu's path is external, and her future achievements are limited.

However, when that time comes, he'll be stronger than ordinary paragons. "

As he spoke, Zhang Tao looked at Li Zhen and said,"How far have you walked on your second great Dao?"

"Aren't you very capable?"Li Zhen asked indifferently. Take a look for yourself!"

"I'm too lazy to look. "

"Even if you've walked 999 meters, it's nothing. It's not worth my attention." What I'm thinking now is, if you shatter this Dao and merge it into your own sword Dao, will it make you stronger?"

"I'm not messing around like you!"Li Zhen frowned. "The situation is critical now. I've created two DAOs, so I'll become even stronger and become an existence comparable to life King. On the other hand, if I shatter this Dao and end up not gaining much from sword Dao, my realm will fall again, no different from now ... Then all my efforts in the past five years will be for nothing!

We don't have the time to waste!"

Crushing the Dao that had yet to reach the peak might make him stronger, or ... There might not be any changes and he might even hurt himself.

If that was the case, the second Dao he had created over the years would be wasted.

However, his second Dao had reached the apex, and he was already at the apex of power. Perhaps he would become an existence like the life King.

Life King had walked two great DAOs, and it had been a long time. He was a top-notch absolute beginning realm expert.

"It's comparable to the King of Life ..."

"It's not enough to be comparable to the King of Life!"Zhang Tao sighed. Although life King wasn't weak, being able to fight one against three was probably his limit. He could block three paragons, but could he block four? How about five?

There was no fundamental change in the absolute nightmare realm, so there was no crushing effect.

So what if he had three great DAOs?

An expert who had walked three great DAOs, even if his combat strength had reached a little over 2 points, could he deal with five paragons? Seven? Or 9?

10, can he block them?

Not necessarily!

If he was able to kill the other party in a one-versus-ten battle, then the demon Emperor had already won back then!

Therefore, it was useless to be comparable to the King of Life.

I won't say if there's anyone stronger than the life King. If you're stronger than the life King, you'll only be able to defend against three true Kings. In fact, it won't have much of an effect. "

Li Zhen was speechless. Nan yunyue was even more helpless. She opened her mouth,"Zhang Tao, you're getting more and more arrogant by the day! Even a life King is useless now, what about you?

I've never seen you reveal your true strength. You were barely able to take on two of them, and now you're looking down on Li Zhen. You really can brag!"

"What do you know?"

Zhang Tao sneered."Previously, I fought one against five. Among them were the Maple King and the fate King. I still beat them until they fled in panic. You actually doubt my strength?"

Li Zhen didn't want to say anything, and Nan yunyue didn't want to either.

Continue bragging!

It wasn't like everyone didn't know the situation.

Life King didn't make a move at all, and the Maple King and the others were worried that he would join forces with Heavenly King Zhen, so they were prepared to leave instead of being beaten up by Zhang Tao and running away.

As they were talking, Zhang Tao looked to the South and smiled,""That kid can't wait any longer, he's here!"

After a moment, Li Zhen said,"just in time. Let's go meet him and ask him about Magic city's catacombs. What's this kid's plan?" "On mcmau's side, there's still no definite news until now. Magic City catacombs will still have to be fought back."

"Come, let's go and meet him."

"……"

The three paragons took this matter seriously and quickly informed the rest.

……

Half an hour later.

Fang ping met the three paragons in a Hall. It was a rather formal occasion.

Fang ping glanced around. It seemed to be the kind of reception room that was usually seen on television, receiving some foreign guests or local officials.

The place was the Ministry of Education. Other than the three paragons, there were some other people accompanying them.

"Greetings, three ministers!"

Fang ping replied politely. He then looked at Wang Qinghai, who was below Zhang Tao, and smiled."Congratulations, Minister Wang, for taking another step forward!"

"Don 't, don't congratulate me!" Wang Qinghai smiled bitterly. Although I've broken through to rank-9 ... I'm not necessarily your match. "

It was embarrassing to say!

However, this was the truth. He was only a weak rank-9.

"Qinghai's strength is weak because it lacks a divine weapon,"Zhang Tao said calmly." With a ninth-grade divine weapon, it will be much stronger. His golden body's tempering was also average. He advanced to rank-9 right after he reached the early-stage of the sixth refinement. His vitality was only 110000 Cal now, and there was no enhancement from the Dao of origin ...

"11000Cal, that's just a simple 11000Cal. The destructive power is limited. In a battle, he'll have to rely on his vitality Foundation. He's indeed the weakest among the weaker rank-9s ..."

Fang ping laughed,"I see!" "Minister Wang, mcmau is still short of a Vice-Chancellor here. If Minister Wang is willing to go to mcmau, these will not be a problem!"

"……"

Li Zhen and Nan yunyue couldn't help but want to laugh.

You're trying to take advantage of the Ministry of Education.

This time, he had shot himself in the foot!

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Zhang Tao suddenly looked at Wang Qinghai and said calmly,""Wang Qinghai, you've been demoted! "You'll be mcmau's Vice-President. In addition, out of the 38000-man Wu an Army regiments, you'll be leading 5000-man regiments to mcmau!

This is also the full strength that I'll let you take away on account of your many years of contribution to the Education Department!

"Pack up later and return to mcmau with Fang ping."

"……"

Fang Ping's face was blank!

I'm just saying!

You ... This shameless old man, you actually threw it to me?

"Not only did you lose Wang Qinghai, but you also threw 5000 Wu an Army to mcmau?

Before he could say anything, Wang Qinghai's face was full of sorrow and he said helplessly,""Okay, I'll go and pack up now. The Deputy Minister has become the vice-principal ... Forget it, since Vice-Principal Fang invited me, I'll go!

Minister, take care. Qinghai will take his leave first!"

After Wang Qinghai finished speaking, he looked at Fang ping and sighed. "I'll be relying on your support from now on, Vice-Chancellor Fang! "It's good that you're going to mcmau. It's not easy to live under someone else's roof in the Education Department. I'll go pack now. Remember to let me know when you're leaving, Vice-Chancellor Fang. "

With that, Wang Qinghai turned around and left without another word.

As for what Fang ping had said ... He had just said that he would invite Wang Qinghai to be the vice-principal!

To reject it now?

Wang Qinghai didn't care about his reputation?

As a rank-9 powerhouse and the Deputy Minister of the Education Department, Fang ping was quite considerate. If he were to slap his face in public at this time, it would not be his face but his heart. His heart would be broken!

'You, Fang ping, went back on your word. Do you still have any integrity to speak of?'

This was a formal occasion!

A camera had appeared beside him without him knowing, and it was pointing at Fang ping.

The corner of Fang Ping's mouth twitched. 'I'm done!'

I'm really not as shameless as old Zhang.

I can't be unconvinced!

She probably already knew what he was going to say and was waiting for him.

If Fang ping had intentionally mentioned what Wang Qinghai was lacking, old Zhang would have known what Fang ping would reply to him, and he would have killed him. Now, Fang ping said that he did not want it anymore. What was Wang Qinghai to do?

The corner of Fang Ping's mouth twitched, and he sat down slowly."Minister, Minister Wang was demoted just like that, and he didn't even need to discuss it in a meeting?"

"Alright then, let's have a meeting to discuss it. Does anyone have any objections?" Zhang Tao said indifferently.

Li Zhen and Nan yunyue looked at each other, speechless. What should we say?

"No objections. Alright, it's passed."

Zhang Tao's expression was casual. Fang ping was speechless. He continued,"Minister Wang Can go to mcmau, but as for the 5000 Wu an Army, forget it. After all, it's the Minister's hard work ..."

"That won't do!"

Zhang Tao said indifferently,"this is an unprovoked demotion, so we have to give him some compensation!" As a rank-9 martial artist, he could not really waste his time. With 5000 Wu an Army, it would be enough to guard a cave.

"It just so happens that even if mcmau doesn't want it, he can still lead the Wu an Army to do some proper things."

Fang ping took another deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said,"Alright, I have no objections! However, the Wu an Army needs funding from the Education Ministry!"

"Of course!"

" 100 million in financial resources is allocated to each group every month. This is also the usual practice. If we calculate it this way, 500 million a month for five groups, 6 billion a year!" Zhang Tao said with a smile.

Zhang Tao sighed."Then let's make it 6 billion. Although it's not in the central government and will be downgraded, it's not the time to calculate this."

" 6 billion a year ... 5000 martial artists!"

Fang Ping's expression changed again!

In other words, a martial artist could only earn 1.2 million a year?

Are you kidding me?

Li Zhen coughed."Department head Zhang, don't forget. There's still some subsidies. You're talking about the basic salary!"

"Right, right, right, I almost forgot. The subsidies are also quite a lot. The subsidies are even higher than the basic salary. In a year, it's about 12 billion, which is twice the salary! "In that case, that's 18 billion a year ... Martial artists really do spend money, I didn't even calculate it before."

Zhang Tao was filled with emotions, while Fang ping looked indignant.

Don't tease me!

3.6 million per year for one martial artist?

The current official price for rank-9 energy stones was rather high. However, the martial arts universities had already started to lower the price. One gram was 600 thousand.

6 grams of energy stones?

A year?

Only 1 gram in two months!

Seeing Fang Ping's anger, Zhang Tao said calmly,"This is the real standard, Fang ping. I'm not lying to you. "You don't have to worry about the Wu 'an Army. Just arrange a place for them to stay in mcmau. Under normal circumstances, they're all in the catacombs."

Fang ping saw Li Zhen nodding slightly as well. He frowned and said,"Is the government that poor? One person weighed only 6 grams a year. An Army of 100000 people, and the highest-level Army at that, would only weigh 1200 pounds a year.

Three ministries and four prefectures, seven troops directly under them, that's about 200000 people, 2400 Jin a year?"

Zhang Tao said indifferently,"this is a direct Army, but there are many armies in various places." Now, the military had started to expand again. It wasn't a small number, they had expanded by a million! In addition to the original one million, there were now two million troops!

"If everything is based on this standard, that would be 24000 catties a year. 12 tons of rank-9 energy stones ... A year!"

"The government's reserve of energy stones is now 60 tons," Zhang Tao said with a sigh.

"Fang ping, think about it. The government's reserves are only enough for the Army to use for five years!

"Other than the military, martial arts universities and Governor-General's houses all over the country also need funds.

After all, money and resources were different. To make money ... We can make as much as we want, but the key is that we don't have enough resources.

"According to the martial artists 'consumption in the entire country and the annual allocation, 60 tons might seem like a lot, but with the current situation, it can be spent in three years.

There might not be any gains in war.

"We've already taken all the ore veins that can be taken away from the outer domain. The rest will be very difficult to obtain.

And that's just the daily expenses. Once war breaks out, the consumption will be even greater. Wars are all about fighting for resources. If Wars happen frequently, in two years, we'll run out of resources in two years at most!"

"That's why the figure I gave you isn't fabricated, nor is it stingy. It's really the only way. "Zhang Tao smiled. In fact, everyone's treatment had also been improved recently. Otherwise, it would have been even less in the past.

There's no other way. Given the situation, we have to use them sparingly.

Otherwise, when an all-out war comes, we can't fight and Rob at the same time, right?

That's too unreliable. We have to leave some for the future. No one knows what the future will be like. How can we fight without any strategic reserves?"

"Zhang Tao wasn't lying. We really don't have much in reserve. That's all we can do," Li Zhen said lightly.

Fang ping glanced at them. 'Sure, I'm just saying one sentence, and these guys have something to say to me!'

Fine, I won't say anymore!

5000 Wu 'an Army soldiers, their annual salary is 60 catties of energy stones, I finally know.

And this was a top-tier troop!

"So, I said that the school that defeated mcmau would be rewarded with 100 catties of energy stones ... It's really a little too much. No wonder those schools are so excited.

"I've exposed too much of my wealth and I've been targeted!"

Fang ping sighed in his heart. He was too rich. His wealth could rival a country 's. This time, he had directly burned one-third of the government's energy stone reserves. No wonder Zhang Tao almost vomited blood in anger.

Fang ping did not reply. 'Don't look at me. I don't have any money now.'

It was all spent!

Besides, I won't give you money even if I have it. We'll see.

'I'm here to see Wu kuishan, but the three paragons are all waiting for me here. What's going on?'

Fang ping felt helpless and complained for a while. 'Is there a need to cry and act pitiful every time you see me?'
