I manage female characters in all the heavens.

Even Luo Feng's brain span of 21 was something Babata wouldn't have considered if there weren't really no higher spans on Earth.

The vines of the Moyun Vine chased after her frantically for a distance, but when they could no longer catch up, they slowly retreated and disappeared back into the thick fog.

"call--"

"Liu Ting" stopped above the sea and exhaled a long breath.

She looked down at her backpack—258 ordinary plant spirits of the thousand-year willow heart level and 12 high-grade plant spirits of the ten-thousand-year willow heart level.

One high-grade plant spirit costs the same as ten ordinary plant spirits, so all of these together are equivalent to 378 ordinary plant spirits.

However, although so many plant spirits seem like a large amount of resources, their actual combined effect is not even equivalent to half a Wood Seed Crystal, so they are not very meaningful to "Liu Ting".

"It'll have to do."

She nodded helplessly, then flew towards the intelligent fighter jet where Iceberg and Willow River were located, where the two greeted her with expressions of amazement.

"Iceberg, Willow River, this is the 30% share we agreed on before."

She opened her backpack, used her mental power to take out 113 ordinary plant spirits, and handed them to Liu He and Bing Shan.

The two took the items, their eyes immediately lighting up with surprise.

113 spirits of plants and trees!

This is much more than they expected!

"As expected of Councilor Liu, you keep your word!" Liu He clasped his hands in a fist salute. "The Extreme Martial Arts Academy will remember this kindness. Upon returning, we will certainly report Councilor Liu's righteousness to our headmaster!"

"You're too kind."

"Liu Ting" waved her hand, "Master Hong has devoted himself to humanity for many years, so we should give him this much face."

After a brief exchange, "Liu Ting" bid farewell to everyone, boarded her Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet, and returned to Jiangnan Base City.

Upon returning to the Institute of High Energy Physics, she immediately convened an online meeting with four Hanxia official councilors—Jia Yi, Yao Weiwu, Deng Qiaosong, and Liu Hui—as well as other senior executives of Hanxia.

The theme of the meeting was clear—the distribution of the spirit of plants.

"These plant spirits are of little significance to the cultivation of individuals at the planetary level like us."

"Liu Ting" said bluntly, "So some of these plant spirits are used for research. Since my teacher was able to accidentally produce that original liquid while researching plant spirits, it means that there is still a possibility of replication."

"Taking advantage of the large sample size this time, we will conduct several more experiments to try to overcome the challenge of replicating the special energy and matter of plant spirits."

Everyone nodded in agreement, praising Liu Ting for her great sense of righteousness in being willing to share the plant spirits she had obtained for research. This contribution must be recorded in history!

"In addition, I hope that everyone can find some suitable martial artists to come to me to receive the spirit of plants and trees to improve their strength. Let's set the quota at two hundred for now."

Everyone was stunned.

That's 200 portions of the Spirit of Plants!

Even if it's not of much value to a planetary-level powerhouse, it's a treasure that can change the fate of a warrior below the God of War level!

You're just giving it away for free?

"Liu Ting, are you sure?"

Jia Yi's voice trembled slightly.

"determine."

Liu Ting nodded. "I'm a planetary-level astronaut now, so these things aren't really that useful to me. But the country has nurtured me, so I should give back to the country."

"These spirits of plants and trees are more meaningful to use in cultivating a group of potential war god-level warriors than to let them gather dust here."

"In particular, these 12 portions of high-grade plant spirits have a one in ten thousand chance of helping someone above the High God of War level break through to the Planetary level. We must make good use of them."

"Hurry up and send over any veteran martial artists in our country who have made outstanding contributions but have been stuck at the peak of the War God realm for a long time. They absolutely need to use high-grade plant spirits!"

The high-ranking officials present were deeply moved.

They did not refuse again, but solemnly thanked "Liu Ting" on behalf of the country.

A national hero, a national hero indeed!

After the meeting, "Liu Ting" began giving out benefits to her family and friends.

A few days later, Liu Wentao, Xu Xin, Yu Qiaoqiao, and some people who were on good terms with "Liu Ting," such as Hao Ren and Zhen Liang, the captains of the two martial arts teams from the Liu family,

After the memorial service, Gao Feng, the captain of the Fire Hammer Squad, who frequently sent her various gifts seeking her guidance, all reached the God of War level with the help of the plant spirits she sent, and their status rose sharply.

Meanwhile, on the Hanxia official side, a wave of explosive growth in strength has been unleashed.

A group of martial artists who had been stuck at the Warrior level for many years successfully broke through to the God of War level after consuming the Spirit of Herbs.

A group of martial artists who had been stuck at the low-level War God level for many years experienced a significant increase in strength after consuming high-grade herbal spirits.

There was even an old martial artist who had been stuck at the peak of the God of War for many years, named Huang Kun, who came from the same trench as Jia Yi and had made outstanding contributions.

After consuming a ten-thousand-year-old willow heart, he unexpectedly broke through the bottleneck and entered the planetary level!

Within half a year, the number of planetary-level experts in Hanxia has increased from the original four (Jia Yi, Yao Weiwu, Deng Qiaosong, and Liu Hui) to six!

This is a huge shock to the structure of Hanxia and even the entire Earth Alliance!

Thanks to Liu Ting's contribution, Hanxia's national strength has risen to a new level!

This time, and in addition to the past, "Liu Ting" has made such a great contribution to Hanxia that so many people have benefited from her kindness.

With almost unanimous agreement, in recognition of Liu Ting's enormous contributions, the national government decided to award her an even higher reward.

The problem is that Liu Ting already has plenty of ordinary rewards—money, status, and honor.

What she lacks is resources suitable for planetary-level cultivation.

Globally, only Extreme Martial Arts Academy might have some of these resources remaining.

Hanxia decided to exchange certain national-level items for some treasures that would benefit planetary-level cultivation at the Limit Martial Arts Academy as a reward for Liu Ting's enormous contributions.

Soon, Hong replied, saying that in view of the many plant spirits that "Liu Ting" had given to the Limit Martial Arts School before, as a token of his gratitude, he was willing to grant Liu Ting the highest level of exchange privileges once, so that she could barter and purchase some items from her own collection.

He didn't refuse the benefits that Hanxia offered to the Limitless Martial Arts Academy. There were some things he didn't need, but his subordinates did.

He valued these benefits at a total of 50 stars, and "Liu Ting" could then choose additional items from him worth a total of 50 stars.

It seems that the more than one hundred plant spirits that "Liu Ting" gave to the Extreme Martial Arts Academy were worth far more than 50 stars. After all, in Luo Feng's original work, 12 plant spirits were worth 36.5 stars, which was a complete loss. But that's not actually the case.

Luo Feng was able to exchange the spirits of plants and trees for stars at Hong's place, and then exchange them for treasures, because he was a member of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy, which was a privilege that Hong granted to his own people.

People from other factions wanted to trade the plant spirits that Hong didn't need for other things, but even if it was 100 plant spirits for 1 star, Hong might not agree.

Hong's collection is, after all, his personal property. His willingness to give it away as a reward to his own people shows his benevolence and his support for younger generations. Whether other forces want to trade with him depends entirely on his mood.

The key to Liu Ting getting this opportunity wasn't actually the plant spirits she gave to the Limitless Martial Arts Academy before, but rather the national-level policies and privileges that Han Xia granted to the Limitless Martial Arts Academy.

Some things cannot be bought with any amount of money, even Hong values ​​them.

When the news reached Hanxia, ​​everyone was thrilled.

Hong's personal collection!

That is a treasure trove as vast as the Milky Way, belonging to the strongest being on Earth!

Although the limit of 50 stars may not seem like much, for a powerhouse like Liu Ting, having a way to exchange for suitable items is already an incredible stroke of luck!

Upon receiving this message, Liu Ting smiled with satisfaction.

Sure enough, her previous investment paid off.

Although the hundred or so plant spirits that were sent out were quite valuable, they ultimately earned Hong's approval to a certain extent. With Han Xia's help, we finally got this exchange opportunity, which was definitely worth it!

She immediately set off for Hongning, a base city in Central Asia.

As for what good things she might find in Hong's treasure trove—

That depends on what treasures Hong Ken brings out.

Chapter 278 My business philosophy is to get something for nothing.

With a cruising speed exceeding Mach 10, the Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet quickly reached the airspace above Hongning Base City.

This silver-white butterfly-shaped fighter jet still exudes a cold aura that says, "I am expensive, I am strong, and I am not to be trifled with," and it travels unimpeded all the way.

Along the way, all the monsters that roamed the wilderness, whether they were lords or kings, obediently huddled in their lairs, not daring to even peek out.

Those are not people they should mess with.

The fighter jet landed smoothly on the dedicated helipad at the global headquarters of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy.

The headquarters of the Ultimate Martial Arts Academy was converted from a real interstellar warship. It has lost its power and cannot take off, but its defense is still invincible on Earth.

The enormous steel behemoth lay sprawled in the center of the base city, like a sleeping ancient beast.

After the Great Nirvana, Hong, the strongest human being, spent most of his time in seclusion in the core cabin on the top floor of this warship.

"Academician Liu, please follow me." A staff member in a black uniform was already waiting by the tarmac, respectfully leading the way for her.

After passing through layers of alloy gates and identity verification checkpoints, "Liu Ting" arrived at the top deck of the warship without any hindrance.

As the heavy hatch slowly opened, she saw the strongest man on Earth sitting cross-legged on the futon again after several months.

Hong's figure remained as imposing and composed as ever, as if he were one with the entire warship and even with the world around him.

He didn't have any aggressive aura, yet when people looked at him, they couldn't help but feel a sense of insignificance.

Just as "Liu Ting" was about to greet her, for the first time ever, Hong, who was always indifferent and even described as "lacking any human emotion," actually gave her a slight smile.

The smile was faint, yet undeniably real, like a crack appearing in an iceberg.

"You've arrived?" Hong's voice was deep and calm, with a hint of barely perceptible appreciation. "Sit down."

Liu Ting was slightly surprised, but remained outwardly calm. She casually sat cross-legged on the futon opposite Hong and even straightened the hem of her white coat.

"Master Hong, your spaceship is so cool! My little beat-up fighter jet is parked outside, and compared to your big ship, it looks like a toy."

"You're being modest." Hong shook his head slightly. "With Earth's current industrial level, you have every reason to be proud that you can build that level of intelligent fighter jet."

"Although I have some Qiankun-level intelligent fighter jets, they were all obtained directly from ancient civilization ruins. I haven't been able to replicate them even after decades, while you started from scratch and only took a few months."

At this point, Hong smiled with satisfaction: "Humanity is truly fortunate to have you."

"Hehe, that's true." Liu Ting accepted the praise without hesitation, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

Seeing that Hong didn't seem to be in a hurry to talk about serious matters, "Liu Ting" wasn't in a hurry either.
