High Martial Arts Start with Ant Talent Fusion

The people patrolling the city lord's mansion all showed surprised expressions upon hearing the city lord's laughter coming from inside.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock. They hadn't heard the city lord's hearty laughter in so long.

"The one who just went in, I think it was General Fang Fan!"

One of the guards, a Grandmaster, couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, he is indeed the newly promoted strong general of Jianghai City."

"This Lord Fang Fan is indeed extraordinary. What good thing happened in the manor that made our city lord laugh out loud?"

"Alright, quiet!"

"It's not our place to meddle in adults' affairs."

"One more word, and you'll be dealt with by force!"

One of the leaders spoke, and everyone shut their mouths and continued to carry out their tasks. But although the leader spoke, he couldn't help but wonder what had happened inside the mansion.

At this moment, Fang Fan looked at the city lord in front of him and wondered if he had said something wrong. Although the city lord usually seemed very kind, his status as the city lord was still there. He was the number one person in Jianghai City!

Am I the first person to dare speak to the city lord like this?

Fang Fan began to speculate, feeling somewhat nervous.

If other powerful town generals were here, they would probably be shocked by Fang Fan. Fang Fan is truly the first person who dares to speak to the city lord like this.

Is it ignorance breeds fearlessness, or youthful arrogance?

"Interesting, interesting. As expected of someone with the talent of a king, even their thoughts are somewhat different from ordinary people."

After laughing, City Lord Fang Ming looked at the young man in front of him and felt a sense of relief. In him, he seemed to see the future of Jianghai City, full of vitality, dispelling all illusions!

"Lord of the City, you..."

Fang Fan said with some surprise, "The city lord actually said that he has the talent of a king!"

But only I know what my talent is like; it's nowhere near that of a king.

"Did you think I was too old and blind to see?"

"In such a short time, how could someone rise from a mere martial artist to become a powerful general in Jianghai City? There must be something special about that!"

"Furthermore, after leaping to the rank of Town General, you successfully killed two Level 5, One-Star demonic beasts. Not only me, but even Teng Xingwen and the others are beginning to suspect that you possess King-level talent!"

"Only a kingly talent could probably get you through all the way to the rank of General!"

City Lord Fang Ming didn't care about Fang Fan's surprise. In his opinion, Fang Fan just didn't know the extent of his talent.

Upon hearing the city lord's words, Fang Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He had been wondering how to find a suitable excuse to avoid arousing suspicion, given how quickly his cultivation had broken through.

It seems I don't need to look for it myself; the city lord has already found one for me.

However, one could also say that he possesses the talent of a king, after all, he has fused with Yan Tu's immortal body, and what the city lord said is not false.

"King-level talent is a different realm of talent, above even the most outstanding geniuses."

"Our human race owes its current state to the three kings who rose to power during the Year of Calamity. You could say you possess the potential to become like them!"

"However, don't be arrogant. According to news from other human capital cities, people with kingly talent have also been discovered."

"So, you, Fang Fan, are not the only one."

City Lord Gu Ming continued, saying that although he had told Fang Fan about his kingly talent, he did not want to affect Fang Fan's state of mind. Having talent alone was not enough; he also needed to put in enough effort and dedication.

However, these were all overthinking by City Lord Gu Ming, because Fang Fan's talent was not at the King level at all.

"Have other major cities also produced King-level players?"

Hearing this, Fang Fan was somewhat shocked. It seemed that he wasn't the only lucky person in the world. He had only gotten to this point because of the system. There were also people in other main cities who had awakened the talent of a king.

Seeing Fang Fan's shock, Gu Ming was quite satisfied. This kid had a good temperament and wasn't arrogant enough yet; he knew the competition had already begun.

"This is not good news. The emergence of individuals with king-level talent in multiple regions shows that we are facing an even darker future!"

"The demon race that we humans will have to face may be even more troublesome."

After City Lord Gu Ming finished speaking, Fang Fan's expression also turned serious; he had just thought of this as well.

"I asked you before, if there were an opportunity for you to participate in the Four Symbols Secret Realm, would you go?"

"Your answer isn't without merit, but it's not entirely correct either."

"You, the younger generation, especially those of you at the forefront, are the hope of our human race, inheriting our indomitable fighting spirit; you are the pioneers!"

"As for us old folks, we don't have that much time left. Giving us more wouldn't make much difference. All we can do is try our best to protect this legacy and prevent it from being taken away by the demon race!"

"Therefore, if this opportunity really comes, handing it over to you is the best way to make the most of it."

"The reason why our human race has continued to exist and has not been defeated by difficulties is precisely because of the torch passed down from generation to generation. As long as the torch is extinguished, the human race will live on forever!"

At this point, City Lord Gu Ming paused, looked at Fang Fan beside him, and then continued.

"Besides, I was just saying that if such an opportunity were to arise..."

"I am merely the city lord of Jianghai City; I do not possess the authority to secure you a spot in the Four Symbols Secret Realm!"

Forehead......

Fang Fan was initially fired up by City Lord Gu Ming's words and wanted to go out of the city again to kill the monsters, but the last two sentences pulled him back.

If such an opportunity were to occur...

Lord City Lord, I've noticed that you can be quite funny at times.

Suddenly, City Lord Gu Ming's expression turned serious, and his voice lost its previous amiability, replaced by a tone befitting his status.

"Fang Fan, the Four Symbols Secret Realm will open soon, and there are only ten spots available!"

"Do you have the confidence to stand out from all the king-level talents and secure a spot for me, for Jiang Haicheng, and for yourself?"

Fang Fan's eyes narrowed. He knew that the city lord was serious when he said this, placing his hopes on him.

Since you trust me, I'll go and fight for one for you!

What good would it do to cause such a huge uproar?

"City Lord, I am certain to be in the Four Symbols Secret Realm!"

"good!"

City Lord Gu Ming stood up and looked at the endless wilderness.

"Soon, the King's Ranking will open. At that time, you and Fang Dao will lead the pride of Jianghai City to seize the top spot!"

"I, Gu Ming, await your triumphant return in Jianghai City!!!"
