Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 255 Occupy
Compared to the relatively peaceful atmosphere on He Jinglan's side, the atmosphere on the Fourth Speaker's side was full of oppression.

Although the speakers are in a meeting, the content of the meeting is already mostly settled.

"Since his debut, Ji Fuyou has not done anything that harms society. He is also quite low-key and cautious. Moreover, he killed Zhu Long, who is on the federal wanted list. I think everyone would applaud this, except for the Second Speaker who is a little disgusted!"

Inside this tall tower, speaking is Federal Reserve Chairman Harry Murray.

It was less of a speech and more of an outburst of anger.

"Back then, the Zhu Long incident caused quite a stir and was known to everyone. Now that Zhu Long is dead at Ji Fuyou's hands, even if the higher-ups want to suppress his merits, they can't. Moreover... who would dare to suppress a spiritual master who can assassinate a Martial Saint? Regardless of whether Ji Fuyou ultimately chooses to take sides, no one would dare to deny him this benefit. In the future, he will surely become a pivotal figure in the Federation."

Before him, bearing the brunt of his anger, were Yun Mengqing and Xia Zheng.

Not long ago, these two collaborated to replace Ji Fuyou as a member of the War Committee, thus offending this spiritual master who could have won them over at that moment.

"Such a figure comparable to a martial saint, yet you have pushed them away from us..."

"Chairman Ma!"

Before Ma Rui could finish speaking, Yun Mengqing could no longer bear it.

Since becoming a spiritual master, she felt that her status had been significantly elevated, and she dared to speak to Ma Rui, who was ranked among the top five in their camp, with neither arrogance nor servility.

"Although we have conflicts with Ji Fuyou, as long as we are willing to give up enough benefits, we may be able to win him back."

She said directly, "I am willing to go to Starlight City and personally persuade him to join our side."

"Even without you saying so, we'll still send people over."

Ma Rui's expression was somewhat indifferent: "But you're going? What makes you think you can convince Ji Fuyou?"

"Ordinary benefits are unlikely to sway him. The only thing that matches his status and can guarantee to move him is the Mist War Research Institute..."

Yun Mengqing paused slightly after saying this.

Xia Zheng's expression turned somewhat grim. He knew that Yun Mengqing was giving him a warning.

"We cannot hand over the War Research Institute."

Ma Rui interrupted Yun Mengqing directly.

"If we can't hand over the War Research Institute, then we'll have to deal with those 'materials'..."

"Material?"

Ma Rui looked somewhat surprised.

Those materials, one or two copies are not very useful.

But if you want ten portions...

That would be equivalent to a spot for a martial arts master or a spiritual master.

Using a martial arts master or spiritual master title to recruit an external spiritual master who may not share their views.
How could Yun Mengqing make such a foolish suggestion?
“During this period, the speakers have discussed these materials several times, but the third speaker has always been reluctant to give them up easily… or rather, he feels that he has not obtained enough bargaining chips and is unwilling to give in easily.”

Yun Mengjing sighed, "61 people! That's enough to create at least 6 spiritual masters, maybe even 6 martial saints! A master can extend one's lifespan by 10 or 20 years, and a martial saint, having cultivated vitality, could extend their lifespan by 60 years. Who would easily give up such benefits..."

If the Civilization Trial hadn't involved the unknown and life-threatening aspects, even she wouldn't have been entitled to enjoy this kind of luck.

At this moment, Ma Rui vaguely guessed what Yun Mengqing meant by mentioning these "materials": "You want to use some materials to exchange for Ji Fuyou's support? Since these materials do not yet belong to us, to some extent, losing them is not a big problem?"

He then asked, "Aren't you afraid that the Third Speaker's side will make the same promise?"

"As expected, the person sent by the Third Speaker is He Jinglan. I know He Jinglan well; he has a very narrow mind and would never be willing to promise such a large benefit."

Yun Mengqing smiled and said, "After all, we don't have 61 documents, while they do, even if they only have the right to keep them safe for now."

"This pie is not easy to draw."

Marie said.

“It is difficult to completely persuade a person, but often, the stance shifts unconsciously. As long as Ji Fuyou communicates and discusses with us frequently, and we give him sufficient treatment during this period, he will eventually be labeled by us.”

Yun Mengqing smiled and said, "Even if he realizes what's happening later and wants to switch sides, others may not trust him."

Be careful not to overdo it.

Marie reminded him.

"I will give him the benefits he deserves, and I will not give him the chance to find out that we have schemed against him."

Yun Mengqing said with a smile.

After hearing this, Ma Rui did not refuse again: "Wait for the Speaker to arrive so we can discuss it in detail. If there are no problems, you can go."

After saying that, he glanced at Xia Zheng, who showed almost no reaction, and secretly shook his head.

The reason Xia Zheng was given the position at the Institute of War Research was because he was the first spiritual master to pledge allegiance, and it was necessary to give him a high-ranking position to keep him in check.

But now...

He has the ability, but his interpersonal skills are clearly inferior to Yun Mengqing's.

In the cultivation world, the War Research Institute, which theoretically controlled all resources, was also firmly suppressed by the Spiritual Ability Association led by He Jinglan.

Perhaps we should talk to the Speaker about changing the person in charge of this important department.

……

The third and fourth speakers acted swiftly upon hearing the news.

The President and the Second Speaker also took action.

That afternoon, the president, who held the legitimate position, personally ordered the issuance of a document, greatly praising Ji Fuyou's act of killing Zhu Long, and accusing him of all sorts of great deeds.

Even the news on the Federal Channel promoted Ji Fuyou's achievements. They also publicized his deeds at the Fengwo Temple, making many people aware for the first time that, in addition to the likes of He Qilin, Gu Yinbing, Xiao Jiuge, and Yun Mengqing, there was actually a person named Ji Fuyou on the Heavenly Ranking.

While continuously promoting Ji Fuyou's reputation, he also quickly dispatched people to Longshou Town to make contact with him.

……

Yang Kaitai, Fang Qiyun, and others arrived very quickly.

Almost a few hours after Zhang Luocheng, Zhou Xiantian and others arrived, they rushed to Longshou Town.

Clearly, after learning what had happened, they rushed over as quickly as possible.

Upon seeing the group arrive, Ji Fuyou nodded.

"Yang Kaitai, Ms. Liu, you two go to the entrance of the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes now and assist Chairman Zhang and his men in blocking the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes. For the next few days, no one is allowed to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes except for those who are allowed to leave. You must kill Zhu He as soon as he returns from the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes."

He issued the order directly.

"I will not let the captain down."

Yang Kaitai and Liu Yiren both agreed.

His expression held an unyielding excitement.

In the past, even with Yang Kaitai and Liu Yiren, plus Zhang Luocheng and Zhou Xiantian, they might not have been able to defeat Zhu He's hunting team of four master-level and two advanced-level professionals.

but now……

Liu Yiren controlled the archer he named Falcon using his Beast Taming Technique, and the archer's combat power was now fully unleashed.

The intimidating power of his archery skills is in no way inferior to that of a spiritual master's flying sword.

Falcon alone is equivalent to a team of master-level martial artists.

With Falcon around, and with the cooperation of Yang Kaitai, Zhang Luocheng, Zhou Xiantian, and others, as long as Zhu He comes out, they will only face certain death.

not to mention……

For the next period of time, Ji Fuyou himself will be stationed in Longshou Town.

Even if Zhu He and the others barely escaped the pursuit of Zhang Luocheng, Yang Kaitai and others, they still had to face Ji Fuyou, and there was almost no chance of survival.

"The cultivation of spiritual beings, whether they develop divine consciousness or not, can be considered a small leap."

Ji Fuyou took out two red spirit source crystals and handed them to the two: "Your spirit values ​​have both reached 24. Refine one spirit source crystal each. It won't be difficult to transform into divine consciousness at 25. I'll leave it to you."

"Top-tier spiritual source crystal!?"

Yang Kaitai and Liu Yiren were both startled.

"Captain, isn't this too expensive?"

"Take it."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Yang Kaitai and Liu Yiren exchanged a glance, then nodded emphatically and accepted the source crystal.

"Thank you, President."

"In addition, I have some red physique source crystals on hand..."

"Forget about the red physique source crystal."

Liu Yiren suggested, "During our trip to the Death Rift Valley, we killed some giant beasts and obtained several red physique source crystals. The effect of these source crystals on us is gradually weakening. If the captain has any extra red physique source crystals, he might as well select some trustworthy people, train them, and make them the core of the team."

She glanced around and said, "The Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes seems quite important to the captain. It would be better to train two or three master-level martial artists to oversee this place."

Ji Fuyou listened and nodded slightly, but did not insist any further.

He simply turned to Fang Qiyun and said, "Call Guan Yue over; he's a trustworthy person too."

"it is good."

Fang Qiyun nodded, and then suggested, "Should we also invite President Liu Zhixuan?"

This person should avoid mentioning Liu Yiren to avoid suspicion, but she is different.

"What does Ms. Liu mean?"

Ji Fuyou glanced at Liu Yiren.

"It would be an honor for him to follow the captain."

Liu Yiren immediately replied.

Their captain was able to kill even a Martial Saint like Zhu Long, and had clearly become one of the top superhumans in the Federation. If they could follow him now, they would surely rise to prominence, which would be much more promising than him being the vice president of the Martial Arts Association in Chuzhou.

especially……

The captain clearly intended to use the red physique source crystal in his possession to cultivate a few more master-level martial artists. No high-level martial artist would want to miss such an opportunity that was so close at hand.

"Okay, call him over."

As Ji Fuyou spoke, he turned his gaze to Fang Qiyun and Xiao Hanxue: "You two will help me maintain order here for the time being. Ten Thousand Snake Valley produces Lucky Divine Oil and is a treasure land. From now on, this will be our foundation."

With his current strength...

This will also allow them to preserve their legacy.
