Lu Dewei chatted for a long time with the President.
Later on, the President had matters to attend to, and the session ended there.
Lu Dewei left the President’s residence with a bright smile on his face. He was delighted.
He wanted to tell Qin Chuan the results. The President had tacitly approved of the existence of cultivation, and there was no need to be too wary while cultivating in the future.
…
In the tea room.
The President held a tablet in his hand, and a video was playing on the screen.
The camera zoomed in, showing Qin Chuan flying at high speed over the desert.
“It seems my guess was correct. He is indeed a cultivator.” The President revealed a faint smile.
“Since fate has allowed me to be reborn, I must seize this opportunity.”
The President closed the video. Memories from his previous life flooded his mind. His gaze was filled with anticipation.
…
Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The second day of the Martial Arts Conference.
In the few matches yesterday, the martial arts families had not lost a single battle against the outside teams. Their morale was high.
Today’s matches were much more intense than yesterday’s.
More importantly, there were matches involving Disaster and Immortal Sect today.
Disaster’s opponent was the Blood Moon Temple that was ranked third in the elimination competition.
The Blood Moon Temple was an underground organization from the Western world.
It was said that they were the ones who created the Dark Net.
The Blood Moon Temple Hall was powerful and was in no way inferior to those super consortiums.
Furthermore, the Blood Moon Temple’s genetic modification technology was very advanced.
This time, they sent the newest generation of genetically modified people.
These people were completely modified, but their body shape and appearance were no different from ordinary people. Even their thoughts were the same as normal humans.
Most completely genetically modified people looked more or less like humans, but the biggest difference was their way of thinking.
Their thought processes resembled more of beasts.
Their emotions were extremely unstable and irritable. They could easily go berserk.
However, this batch of genetically modified people from the Blood Moon Temple could maintain a normal mind while achieving extreme strength. They could be said to be almost perfect.
This was something that many organizations that studied human genetic modification could not achieve.
However, these two foreign teams—Disaster and the Blood Moon Temple—did not have to compete against each other during the elimination competition.
Rather, none of the top ten teams had challenged each other.
Since this was the first time they were fighting and equally matched, this match attracted great attention.
For the afternoon match, the opponents of Immortal Sect were also a team in the top ten of the elimination competition.
Everyone was filled with anticipation for these two matches.
…
Presently.
At the competition venue.
A match had just ended.
It was a match between the Li family team and a foreign team.
The Li family had easily defeated them.
Most importantly, everyone in the foreign team had died.
This outcome wasn’t too surprising because there was an aggressive person from the Li family who killed many people from the Qi family back during the previous conference. It caused quite a stir.
It was a woman named Li Shuirou.
Li Shuirou could be said to be a rare genius from the Li family. At the age of twenty, she had reached the standard of a first-rate martial artist.
In the previous conference, when the Li family fought against the Qi family, she had killed many Qi family juniors.
As such, the relationship between the Li family and the Qi family reached a low. It almost triggered a war between the two families.
Li Shuirou’s killing intent was too strong. After discussion among the various families, she was not allowed to participate in the Martial Arts Conference ever again.
However, this year was special. They were facing martial artists from all over the world.
To fight against the foreign teams, the higher-ups of the martial arts families decided that Li Shuirou could take the stage.
Now that Li Shuirou had become a Grandmaster, she was even more powerful. She exuded a cold murderous aura and was like a sharp blade that was extremely oppressive.
Qin Chuan had learned of this person through Li Jingchen.
The Li family and the Qi family were mortal enemies. Li Shuirou’s parents had died in the conflict between the two families.
At that time, Li Shuirou had just weaned.
As she lost her parents when she was young, it was inevitable that people would comment on that as she grew up. This also caused some flaws in her character.
When she grew up, Li Shuirou displayed extraordinary talent in martial arts. She only needed to look at any martial arts once, and she could master it.
Because of this, the Li family placed great importance on her and nurtured her with everything.
At just 20 years old, she had already reached the standard of a first-rate martial artist.
Due to her parents’ misfortunes and the flaws in her personality, Li Shuirou was determined to kill everyone in the Qi family to avenge her parents since she was young.
As the saying went, the enmity of killing one’s father was irreconcilable.
It was revenge for her parents.
Qin Chuan could understand why Li Shuirou became like this.
Since Li Shuirou is a martial arts genius, he thought she probably wouldn’t be too bad at cultivating.
However, with her personality, she might not pass the test with the Heart Refining Rock.
Qin Chuan treasured talent.
After all, the higher the aptitude of the person recruited, the faster the points would come and the faster his cultivation level would increase.
Forget it! If it doesn’t work out, I’ll modify her memories and erase those dark memories. Qin Chuan thought to himself.
While he was thinking, the anticipated match between the Blood Moon Temple and Disaster was about to begin.
The two teams had already arrived at the arena.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on them.
In terms of numbers, there were only three people in Disaster, while the Blood Moon Temple had the standard ten members.
As the saying goes, strength comes with numbers.
In terms of numbers, Blood Moon Temple had the upper hand.
In terms of ability, both sides were at the level of martial Grandmasters.
In terms of individual strength, Disaster’s three individuals were stronger than the Blood Moon Temple.
However, three fists are ultimately no match for four hands. Thus, in a situation where the difference in strength was not too great, Disaster’s chances of winning were not too high.
However, Qin Chuan didn’t quite think so.
He knew the strength of the black-robed person called Invisible Snake.
As long as she was there, Disaster wouldn’t lose unless it was on purpose.
…
Not long after, both sides retreated to the preparation area.
Daimon Kogoro narrowed his eyes with a solemn expression.
He said in a low voice, “Kenshin-san, I can’t do this alone this time.”
Daimon Kogoro was aware of the overall strength of the Blood Moon Divine Temple and did not dare to be careless.
Himura Kenshin nodded slightly. His expression remained aloof as he unknowingly gripped the two katana in his hands.
At this moment, the sharp aura of a Sword Saint-to-be radiated from his body.
In the audience, many people cultivated the Sword Dao.
The sword energy on Himura Kenshin was shocking.
When those juniors of the family clans sensed this, their expressions changed greatly, and their gazes revealed reverence and shock.
In the VIP seats, the Patriarchs’ looked grave and surprised.
“This kid’s Sword Dao is truly terrifying. He’s probably not far from the sword aura realm.
“We’ve underestimated him this time.
“Among his peers, there are probably only three people who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him.” A Patriarch said.
Even though Himura Kenshin hadn’t moved, just the sword energy he displayed was enough for these Patriarchs to get a rough understanding of his strength.
Qin Chuan felt the same way.
During these past few days, he had utilized his divine consciousness to observe all the disciples of the family clans in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
There were quite a few people with good aptitudes, but people like Himura Kenshin were extremely rare.
There are no boundaries in culture, and the same went for cultivation.
Qin Chuan wondered if he should give Himura Kenshin a chance to cultivate.
With such geniuses, the system would reward him with more points.
If his character was lacking, Qin Chuan could just alter his memory.
At this thought, the referee’s voice suddenly came from the venue.
The match began.
The atmosphere in the hall instantly became heated.
