Too many people are dying in this chaotic world? Then I'll activate the control panel!

After comforting his mother, Wang Sheng put on his martial arts academy uniform and left home.

The cold wind was biting.

Wang Sheng walked through the alleys and streets, finding several frozen, naked corpses lying by the roadside in almost every alley. The rest of the alleys were empty, creating a very oppressive atmosphere.

A large group of beggars huddled together in a narrow alley, seeking warmth, their eyes vacant and lifeless.

Pedestrians hurried along the road, afraid of being harassed by the beggars.

However, some members of the Divine Incense Cult were actually distributing thin porridge on certain streets. Some wealthy people were also reluctantly giving out thin soup.

"I heard there are Han Chinese spies who have infiltrated the city. What do you think these Han Chinese look like?"

"Hehe, you better not try to find out what the spy looks like. I heard that last night, more than a dozen masters of internal energy died, and a large number of masters of external energy died, most of whom were killed by that spy. Three masters of the late stage of internal energy alone died."

"Holy crap, that's ruthless! Damn, someone this ruthless is a spy. If it were me, I would have been ruling the countryside by now."

"That's nothing. I also heard that the spy even fought with a Grandmaster of Internal Energy."

"Bullshit, I heard that all the Grandmasters of the Transformation Realm in the city were mobilized, but they still couldn't catch the spy."

A group of people from the Divine Incense Cult were giving alms and chatting. As they chatted, they started arguing.

As Wang Sheng listened to the increasingly outrageous rumors, he shook his head slightly and quickened his pace to arrive at the Zhao Family Martial Arts Academy.

Inside the martial arts academy, as always, many disciples were cultivating.

With Grandmaster Zhao Jie around, chaos won't reach here.

"Senior brother, you've emerged from seclusion!"

Ge Xiaogu was slowly practicing her boxing when she caught a glimpse of Wang Sheng appearing out of the corner of her eye. Her face lit up with joy, and she exclaimed in surprise.

In a flash,

The entire martial arts academy fell silent.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Wang Sheng, who had just entered the martial arts academy.

"What happened?"

Wang Sheng stopped, sensing everyone's attention, and was somewhat puzzled.

Simultaneously,

Wang Sheng noticed a beautiful woman in a long dress looking in his direction from the top of the wall.

"Senior brother, you've finally emerged from seclusion."

Ge Xiaogu ran over.

Wei Yu, Luo Zhengwen, and others also flocked to him.

"What are they doing here?"

Wang Sheng saw many of his fellow disciples bowing and clasping their hands in respect to him.

"Haha, junior brother. The other day at the yamen, you defeated the disciples of the Cangshan Martial Arts School one after another, which impressed many of you. Later, it was rumored that you had amazing comprehension and received a treasure from the city garrison commander, which naturally earned you their respect!"

Luo Zhengwen smiled.

"You went into seclusion as soon as you returned, and haven't been seen for so many days. Everyone's curious!"

Wei Yu's voice carried a hint of resentment.

"That little wretched woman! Looks like we need to teach her a lesson with a stick!"

Wang Sheng's gaze swept over Wei Yu's long legs, which seemed capable of crushing people, and he thought to himself.

"Junior brother, how's your seclusion going? If you have any problems breaking through to the late stage of Ming Jin, feel free to ask me."

Li Hu nodded to Wang Sheng with a calm smile.

Li Hu is here,

The momentum has changed.

Is it too conspicuous?

Wang Sheng keenly noticed that Li Hu's strength seemed to have changed.

"Senior Brother Li Hu has broken through to the Dark Force realm!"

Ge Xiaogu whispered a reminder.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother. I am ashamed to say that I am of limited talent and have not made any breakthroughs. I am indeed late!"

Wang Sheng suddenly realized what was happening and bowed to Li Hu.

not far away,

Wu An, who had been eavesdropping intently in the corner, breathed a heavy sigh of relief when he heard that Wang Sheng hadn't made any breakthroughs.

"High comprehension? What good is that?"

"It all comes down to one's physical constitution!"

"Once I break through to the late stage of Ming Jin, I'll definitely get my revenge!"

Wu An gritted his teeth and said with hatred.

"Haha! It's not too late now!"

Li Hu waved his hand and then said...

"However, junior brother, you just happened to catch up with senior brother Yu Cheng's breakthrough."

"A couple of days ago, I heard that Senior Brother Yu Cheng had broken through to the late stage of Dark Force. He's been consolidating his cultivation recently, so he'll probably be coming out soon."

Yu Cheng!

When Wang Sheng heard this name, he suddenly remembered that he had almost forgotten about him.

"If this old bastard doesn't come looking for me soon, I'm going to come knocking on his door."

Wang Sheng thought to himself.

"By the way, junior brother. While you were in seclusion these past few days, people from the Cangshan Martial Arts School came to the academy several times, wanting to spar with you, but Master refused and warned them each time. Remember to be very careful if you encounter them in the future."

Luo Zhengwen reminded him.

"Um."

Wang Sheng nodded and chatted with the others for a while. Hearing that Zhao Jie was discussing important matters with the head of the Qingshui Academy, he decided to wait until they finished before visiting Zhao Jie.

just,

Not long after,

Then a disciple informed Wang Sheng that his master wanted to see him.

Inner courtyard hall.

Zhao Jie and He Wei, the head of Qingshui Martial Arts Academy, who was wearing a thin veil, sat in the main seat and talked.

After Wang Sheng entered the hall, he respectfully bowed to the two men.

"Disciple greets Master, Senior He!"

"Hmm, you're in good spirits. Have you really figured it out?"

Zhao Jie was trying to find topics to chat with He Wei, hoping to win her heart and have a chance to win her favor.

But when he saw Wang Sheng, he was clearly taken aback.

The only difference between the current Wang Sheng and the previous Wang Sheng is whether or not he uses a beauty filter.

"Yes. This disciple has gained some understanding and has learned the breathing technique, but I am hampered by the lack of ancient elixirs, so I have no way to cultivate it!"

Wang Shengdao.

To reveal a bit of insight, Wang Sheng ultimately still has some ideas about the Transformation Technique.

That's why he wanted to use this to get Zhao Jie's attention.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Weiwei, I told you my disciple's comprehension is exceptional, a once-in-a-century talent. You didn't believe me!"

Zhao Jie was quite pleased with himself, having gained face in front of the person he admired, and then pretended to call He Wei affectionately.

"Director Zhao, please just call me He Wei."

He Wei corrected Zhao Jie's way of addressing him in a cool tone.

Then, her clear, beautiful eyes fell on Wang Sheng, and she looked him up and down.

Wang Sheng felt somewhat uncomfortable under the woman's gaze.

have to say,

He Wei is indeed, as Ge Xiaohu once said, qualified to be the top courtesan among top courtesans.

She has such a great presence.

A sense of aloofness pervades the air.

She wore a long, moon-white dress that trailed on the ground, with neat, tailored shoulder lines. The skin that was occasionally revealed was as white as jade, as smooth as cream, and seemed to glow with white light.

In addition, her waist was slender and delicate, and the draping skirt made her figure appear even more upright and graceful, like a bamboo shoot.

She sat there quietly, giving off an aura of aloofness and elegance.

"Kneel down!"

He Wei suddenly spoke, her voice like pearls falling on a jade plate, mixed with a touch of authority and magnetism.

Wang Sheng was taken aback, then suddenly looked up and met He Wei's gaze.

Is this woman out of her mind? Why would she make him kneel down and do knitting?

No matter how beautiful or amazing you are, you can't make me kneel down after just one meeting.

"I wish to take Wang Sheng as my disciple. I wonder if Brother Zhao would be willing to part with him?"

He Wei said.

Zhao Jie was also puzzled, but after hearing He Wei's words, he immediately became dissatisfied.

However, Zhao Jie thought for a moment and said, "Alright, Dean He, I would like to invite you to meet at Baihe Tower tomorrow night. I have important matters to discuss."

Having another master wouldn't be a bad thing for Zhao Jie. After all, Wang Sheng cultivates the Great Monument-Shattering Hand, and his main master is still Zhao Jie. He Wei is just a master in name only.

"good!"

He Wei nodded.

then,

Wang Sheng, speechless, knelt down in front of the two, kowtowed, offered tea, and performed a simple apprenticeship ceremony.

"I don't carry any treasures with me. This is a sachet I made myself; it can dispel toxins and nourish the body."

He Wei gave Wang Sheng a personal sachet.

Looking at Wang Sheng's reluctant expression, Zhao Jie felt both envious and inwardly cursing the kid for being ungrateful, having gotten He Wei's personal items before him.

"Damn it, does this woman have bad intentions towards me?!"

Holding the sachet, Wang Sheng sensed the meaningful glances He Wei occasionally cast his way and suddenly felt a sense of unease.

He's been scammed so many times before.

In the novels he had read, this sachet was either poisonous or could mark a path for people.

Who would be such a kind person as to want to take on an apprentice upon first meeting and even give away a sachet?

"She's just a mere Transformation Realm cultivator. If she really has designs on me, I can beat her to a pulp!"

Wang Sheng thought calmly.
