I alone have my own laws; I start by fabricating myths and legends of mountains and seas.

"Speaking of this trial, one of the participants is clearly a martial arts expert. He should know techniques like Tongbei Quan, Bagua Zhang, and Bajiquan. I order you to use this knowledge to deduce the Ming Jin, An Jin, and Hua Jin of traditional Chinese martial arts. It would be best if you could also deduce some kind of Gang Qi or the realm of Jian Shen Bu Hua," Su Fan said, addressing the Heavenly Dao.

Heavenly Dao, on the other hand, looked at him with an expression as if he were an idiot.

Su Fan said, "Is it not possible? What use are you to me if you can't even do this?"

"If the 'national martial arts' you're referring to are fighting techniques, then there's no problem. But if what you're talking about is extraordinary power similar to internal energy, or the ultimate fighting techniques, then that's not reasonable. Fighting techniques are essentially the result of a group of people specializing in researching and finding suitable ways to generate power. The fact that such techniques can be developed means that society as a whole can support a group of people who have taken time off work to study them. In essence, these fighting techniques are not much different from modern scientific fitness."

"If it's some kind of fantastical martial art, like striking someone with 'neutralizing force' as if they were hanging a painting, then forget it. I can't possibly extrapolate fighting techniques to that level based on my existing knowledge," Tiandao explained.

"Okay! Is it really that hard to deduce extraordinary power from nothing? You can't use the fact that you don't have it as an excuse for not being able to do it!" Su Fan complained, understanding that Heaven couldn't do it and that he couldn't force people to do things against their will.

Heaven simply ignored Su Fan's unreasonable statement.

"Won't it cause problems if we recruit so many people into the Mountain and Sea Realm and then screen them? If we get noticed, no matter how powerful the Mountain and Sea Realm may seem on the surface, it's just a dream. Are you planning to use a dream to compete with a nation?" Tiandao asked with some concern.

"Don't worry! We already decided on this plan. Starting today, it'll be a two-day cycle, drawing in the maximum number of people into the Mountain and Sea Realm, and then selecting suitable individuals. I'd like to see if anyone will stubbornly endure the three-day fatigue period rather than become a laborer helping me collect emotional crystals," Su Fan said. Although he didn't understand why Zhang Siqi was unwilling to become a laborer, it didn't matter. The three-day mental fatigue period away from the Mountain and Sea Realm was unavoidable; if he didn't want to collect emotional crystals, then let him experience the mental fatigue!

I entered the Mountain and Sea Realm once every ten days, and experienced three days of mental exhaustion after leaving.

From now on, you will enter the Mountain and Sea Realm every two days, but the three-day period of mental fatigue is not advisable. In other words, if there is no emotional crystallization to offset the mental fatigue, you will remain listless and lifeless.

"Alright! This way, we can consider it a selection process to identify outstanding workers. As long as you're satisfied, that's good. Bringing enough people into the Mountain and Sea Realm, forcing them into a state of abandonment through trials, and then using Soul Searching Technique to collect knowledge is always a good thing," Heavenly Dao said upon hearing this.

"Speaking of emotional crystals, aren't they made by absorbing people's emotions through strange objects and then condensing them? In the trials, these people's emotions also experience great ups and downs, so is it possible to collect emotional crystals?" Su Fan asked with great interest.

"It's not feasible, since the Seven Emotions Gourd can't be collected in the Mountain and Sea Realm. The essence of the Mountain and Sea Realm is a dream," the Heavenly Dao said.

"This dream world can absorb emotional crystals, but it can't directly absorb people's emotional power! If only it could, I could use the emotional crystals for other things." Su Fan felt a little regretful and sighed.

【Mountain and Sea Realm (Group Chat)】

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "Our lending plan seems to have suffered a major setback. It's a case of 'dying before the battle even begins,' leaving heroes to weep with regret!"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "It hurts! It hurts so much! How could Yingzhao be so cruel! My dream is shattered."

Bixi (Wang Jianguo): "There's still hope! That newcomer didn't accept Yingzhao's suggestion to offer the 'Qingqing Hu' either. If we offer a lower price, then they have no reason not to choose us."

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "So you mean we should do business with Ying Zhaoqiang? Won't they hold a grudge against us for doing that?"

Bookworm (Jiang He): "Compared to the previous plan, I am more concerned about this change. Before this, there were only us in the Mountain and Sea Realm. This time, so many people went. Does it mean something?"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "It's alright for now! At least I haven't seen any news. It's really outrageous that there's been such a large-scale outbreak of collective dream anomalies and there's been no news about it."

Bai Ze (Su Fan): "The number of people entering the Mountain and Sea Realm this time is only a few thousand, while our planet has billions of people. The population base is too large, so even if it's this outrageous, it won't have much of an impact."

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "That makes sense. After all, this time it's not just our country and its people, but also white-skinned barbarians, black-skinned barbarians, and yellow-skinned barbarians. From this perspective, Sister Jiang's previous conjecture about the scope of the Mountain and Sea Realm can be confirmed."

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "Let's assume that three thousand people had the same dream this time, but because they are far apart and even from different countries, three thousand people can only convince their friends and relatives at most. So, assuming each person has six relatives and friends, the maximum number of people who can be convinced is less than twenty thousand. It is indeed very difficult to convince twenty thousand people of something that cannot be verified and that has caused a certain amount of discussion."

Bixi (Wang Jianguo): "Hey Xiao Chen, didn't you add that newbie? Why didn't you add him to the chat group?"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "I added him as a friend, but what is his identity? He doesn't even have the inheritance of a divine beast, so how can he enter our chat group?"

Bai Ze (Su Fan): "They're at least one in a hundred, uh! That doesn't seem quite right, one in a thousand, or even one in ten thousand!"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "Let's not even talk about whether he is a genius or not. Even if he is, we are the protagonists. There is never a shortage of geniuses in this world."

Bai Ze (Chen Yang): "6, as expected of you."

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "I've been thinking about Uncle Wang's words. Perhaps our lending plan can still proceed. And we've discussed the advantages of having the other party in the Mountain and Sea Realm countless times; it would indeed be more convenient for us. Without that Japanese person, this newcomer is definitely reliable!"

Bai Ze (Su Fan): "How dare you steal business from Ying Zhao again?"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "I've thought about it carefully, and it might actually be feasible. Tell me about it!"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "First of all, although Ying Zhao's attitude towards this business was indifferent, and he didn't say anything when the other party refused, since Ying Zhao can accept that the other party doesn't buy the Love-Drinking Gourd from him, then if we sell it to them, Ying Zhao has no reason to cause us trouble!"

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "Secondly, while Yingzhao is indeed a divine beast, we're not bad either! We at least possess divine beast inheritances! Based on my speculation, we still hold a certain status in the Mountain and Sea Realm. At least we're much higher than those who were selected through trials or those without divine beast inheritances."

Ya Zi (Chen Yang): "Based on the above judgment, I think this deal is still worth doing. In fact, for the sake of our compatriots, we can set the price lower and only charge him 45,000 Emotion Crystals. This way, we will have an advantage over Ying Zhao. In the end, each of us can earn 5,000 more Emotion Crystals."
