The Extreme Dao Ancient Hall was originally called the “Extreme Dao Ancient Martial Arts Hall.” It was different from the Ancient Martial Arts Hall established by the government and independently belonged to the number one powerhouse in the world, Luo.

Wang Xu was very familiar with Luo’s legend. He was a great man who changed the fate of mankind. It was because of his appearance that the terrifying insects stopped their invasion and even took the initiative to give up a piece of land.

It could be said that Luo accounted for half of the reasons why humans were here today.

Wang Xu had had reverence and admiration for this real powerhouse who saved the world since he was small!

“Of course, as a member of the Ancient Hall of Extreme Dao, we will also provide you with the corresponding cultivation resources. It’s just that we don’t have the power of the army and the fellow warriors everywhere like in the Freedom Alliance. However, if you are interested in ancient martial arts, we can provide you with sufficient and powerful ancient martial arts.. What do you think?” the dean said.

“I.. will join the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall!” Wang Xu said without hesitation.

Of course, he did think about it.

He didn’t lack the cultivation resources provided by the military and the Freedom Alliance. With the mysterious flame, he only needed to collect enough insect beast corpses. Wang Xu believed that his strength would increase faster than those who consumed the cultivation resources.

The military’s rank power and the Freedom Alliance’s omnipresent support were all over the world. Both of them relied on forces and not their own true strength. Only the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall, although it didn’t provide power and support, the powerful ancient martial arts were something that Wang Xu pursued!

The Extreme Dao Ancient Hall was very different from the Ancient Martial Arts Hall established by the government. The former had a more systematic management and credit exchange system while the latter could only use money to buy stuff.

Moreover, the most important thing was that the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall had the most powerful ancient martial arts in the world and there were also many mysterious ancient martial arts that people had never seen or heard of before. They were comprehensive and all-inclusive. They were all collected by Luo from the various “forbidden areas of the Earth.” Compared to him, the government was totally nothing.

What Wang Xu needed now was strength. He could rely on the mysterious flame to increase his level, but ancient martial arts required step-by-step practice. If he put all his energy on ancient martial arts, his strength would definitely increase by leaps and bounds!

Hence, Wang Xu chose to join the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall without hesitation.

A smile instantly appeared on the dean’s face. He took out an optical computing chip from his Space Ring and handed it to Wang Xu. “Alright, from now on, you’re a member of the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. Take this and report to the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall in our safe area.”

Wang Xu took the optical computing chip and was extremely excited. He even imagined how good it would be if he could meet the number one powerhouse in the world, Luo, one day.

“There’s also this.” The dean took out a golden card. “There are 30,000 points inside. Consider it a token of my appreciation. You can buy a few things you want.”

Taking the golden card, Wang Xu also understood that the dean was giving him a favor and investing in him. However, Wang Xu was still very grateful to him. Appreciating him and inviting him to join the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall, the dean could be considered his respected mentor.

“But sir, I just..” Wang Xu was still thinking about Xu Yuan’s death in his mind. It was like a knot in his heart that would make him uncomfortable if it wasn’t untied.

“Don’t worry,” the dean interrupted him. He knew what he was referring to. “Although the Xu family is a large family, they’re nothing in my eyes. Moreover, you are now a member of the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. If he dares to do something to you, it will be equivalent to declaring war on the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. I don’t think he will be willing to do so.”

At this moment, Wang Xu finally heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was glad that he had chosen the right side. If he joined other forces that didn’t care about him, it would be troublesome.

Xu Corporation

CEO’s Office

“Mr. Xu, bad.. bad news!” A man in a suit pushed open the office door anxious while panting heavily.

In the office, a middle-aged man with the temperament of a superior was reading documents. Seeing the man in a suit rush in, he frowned and said, “No matter how serious the problem is, calm down. Don’t panic. What’s wrong with you?”

The man in a suit swallowed with difficulty and said with a bitter expression, “Young Master.. Young Master is.. dead.”

Boom!

Like a thunderclap, the middle-aged man stood up immediately. His face was red and the veins on his forehead protruded. “What.. What did you say?!”

“Young Master went to participate in the trial yesterday. When he was teleported back today, he was killed by a student,” the man in a suit said as he cried.

“Who!? Who did that? How dare him be so ruthless to Yuan! I’ll definitely kill him!” The middle-aged man was unable to restrain his anger and his eyes looked so furious that flames were about to spout out!

“It’s.. It’s a student called Wang Xu..” The man in a suit was shocked by the middle-aged man’s furious expression and couldn’t even speak clearly. “I also heard that his strength has already reached level four!”

Level four?!

The expression of the middle-aged man, who seemed to have been offended just now, instantly became sullen.

“There are currently no students in the Genetic Academy who can reach level four. Where did you hear that?” The middle-aged man calmed down with great difficulty. He knew that a level-four Elite Warrior had special privileges. Even if he had a reasonable explanation, he’ll still have to take huge risks to make a move on a level-four warrior!

“students who were there at the time said so. They all said that Wang Xu had reached level four,” the man in a suit wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

“Huh?” The middle-aged man’s eyes instantly lit up. “Are you saying that he doesn’t have an official certification? Only others think he has reached level four?”

“That’s right,” the man in a suit said.

“That’s easy. Contact Ma Wu immediately and ask to stop Wang Xu before he goes to participate in the elite test!” The middle-aged man quickly ordered, “Also, find me information about his parents. The faster the better!”

The man in a suit responded and went to work quickly.

In less than ten minutes.

“Mr. Xu, I’ve found it. Wang Xu’s mother is a worker in a textile factory and his father is the supervisor of the factory. The two of them don’t have much of a background.” The man in a suit also found out Wang Xu’s parents’ ages, birthday, blood type, and various other information.

“Good, good, good! I’ll call their factory manager later. I don’t believe that a level-four warrior dares to provoke the Xu family!” The middle-aged man snorted coldly. His eyes were filled with viciousness.

In the workshop of the textile factory

“Look how the pockets of these three clothes are sewn? They’re actually three centimeters away from their original positions! Three centimeters is enough to ruin a piece of clothing. Do you know that?!”

In the office, Wang Zhenguo held a piece of clothing and said to the three workers in a stern voice.

The three workers lowered their heads and didn’t dare to look at Wang Zhenguo. They played poker for a long time last night and slept late. In the end, they made mistakes when they were working, sewing the pockets of a few clothes into the wrong places, which made them panic.

In this era, ordinary people’s clothes could totally be manufactured mechanically. There were only a few factories that were still using manual labor to make clothes. Those who could wear such clothes were all rich people. The value of a piece of clothing was obvious.

The value of three pieces of clothing was enough to make three months of their salary go down the drain!

Wang Zhenguo understood their difficulties, so he sighed and said, “I will put your mistakes behind me this time. Each of you will pay a month’s salary as compensation and write me a guarantee letter. Alright, off you go.”

When the three workers heard that, the bitterness on their faces turned to smiles. They quickly promised and apologized, feeling grateful to Wang Zhenguo.

They weren’t grateful that Wang Zhenguo only deducted a month of their salary but that he didn’t fire them.

After making such a mistake, the factory could fire them unconditionally and didn’t even have to pay for this month’s salary while asking them to pack their stuff and leave. Unexpectedly, not only did Wang Zhenguo not fire them, but he also reduced their fines. How could they not be emotional?

After the three workers left, Wang Zhenguo removed the stitches on the few clothes with mistakes. He was an experienced person who had worked in this factory for many years. Although it was a little troublesome, as long as the work was done meticulously, even discerning people wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

“Bang!” Suddenly, the door was pushed open and a middle-aged man with glossy hair walked in.

“Manager? Why are you here?” Wang Zhenguo asked in surprise.

“Supervisor Wang, you’re really good at causing trouble for me!” The factory manager gritted his teeth. Xu Corporation gave him a call just then. When he picked up the call, he heard that it was their CEO and he was instantly emotional.

As the factory manager, even if he was a civil servant appointed by the government, he was just an ant in front of Xu Corporation. They could crush and step on him as they pleased and he had no power to resist at all. However, being able to connect with such a figure, his status immediately changed.

However, before he could speak, the CEO of Xu Corporation said something to him. The manager immediately broke out in cold sweat.

In an instant, the factory manager didn’t dare to be perfunctory. He quickly ran over and didn’t even bother to knock on the door.

“Zhenguo, how did you get me into such big trouble? Your son.. Ah, you keep saying how outstanding your son is. But now, he provoked the Xu family. What do you think we should do?” The factory manager was somewhat acquainted with Wang Zhenguo and didn’t kick him away immediately.

“Xu? What happened to Xu? How did he provoke the Xu family?” Wang Zhenguo’s expression changed drastically when he heard this. Of course, he had heard of the Xu family’s great name but Wang Xu had always been responsible. How would he provoke a big shot like the Xu family?

“Forget it, forget it. Leave work for now to figure out what happened so that I can explain to them. This is really.. Ah..” The factory director turned around and left after saying that. Wang Zhenguo was shocked by his words and was so stunned that he couldn’t react.

“Oh right, ask Sister-in-law to go back with you and figure out what happened,” the factory manager turned back and said, then left without stopping.

..

Wang Xu was on the way home happily. He was thinking about how his parents would react when he told them that he had advanced to level four and could bring them to the protected area after he went home.

However, as he walked, he suddenly stopped.

“Come out.” Wang Xu’s gaze was cold as he looked into an alley.

“Hm! Your senses are quite sharp.” A bald man walked out of the alley with several men following behind him.

Wang Xu was shocked in his mind. These men were all level-four Gene Warriors and the bald man leading them was even stronger than them. He was obviously a level-five Gene Warrior!

“If you don’t want to be injured, come with us obediently,” said the bald man.

Wang Xu really wanted to run but the bald man seemed to have known that he would choose to do so. He had already arranged for guards at several corners.

Being blocked by the powerful enemies in front and those of the same level behind him, Wang Xu couldn’t escape at all unless he had wings!

“Alright, I’ll go with you.” Wang Xu forced himself to calm down. He could tell that there was no intention to kill him in the bald man’s eyes. Instead, it was as if he was on a mission. He had no choice but to take a gamble and leave with the bald man.

“Take him away.” The bald man waved his hand and a few leve-four Gene Warriors came up and picked up Wang Xu. A hover car dashed over. The few of them put Wang Xu into the car and the car whizzed down the road.
