Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Taking Pills as Meals and Treating Martial Arts as Reading a Newspaper
“Sword, come!” Fang Jueyu shouted, and the swords deeply embedded in the ground returned to their positions, disappearing one by one behind Fang Jueyu.
“How’s the Dean getting more impressive? Even Old Master Ou isn’t even close to being a match for him,” Chen Menghan recalled that the last time Fang Jueyu sparred with the Sect Leader of the Gucang Sword Sect, his power level hadn’t even reached the Innate Martial Artist’s level.
“Standard operation. I wonder what exactly the Dean has been learning, it’s so cool. Is this the Sword Control Technique?” Qin Yun said excitedly.
“I suspect the Dean has yet to use his full strength,” Bai You speculated. “You see, every time he encounters a stronger opponent, he displays even more power. That he can defeat a mid-stage Divinity Transformation Realm opponent doesn’t mean he can only defeat mid-stage Divinity Transformation Realm opponents, but rather that his opponents only possess that level of strength.”
“You’ve got a point!” After hearing Bai You’s analysis, it was like an exam where one person scored 99 and another scored 100, yet the gap between the two was not merely one point!
The one who scored 99 only had the ability to score 99, whereas the one who scored 100 only had that score because the full score was 100. This was where Fang Jueyu was most unfathomable.
“Perhaps only a master of the Mythical Realm might be able to bring out the Dean’s full power?”
“Oh please, besides that one person under the Dean, where else can you find another Mythical Realm master in the world?”
“Oh damn, doesn’t that mean the Dean is invincible?” Qin Yun was suddenly struck by this possibility, “No wonder the Chief is confident in letting the Dean be this honorary advisor to lead the management of the Ancient Martial Arts Association. With him stepping in, what can’t be accomplished?”
“Sigh, from today onward, a change is coming to the Ancient Martial World!”
…
“Now, is there anyone who refuses to comply with the management of the Shen Gun Bureau?” Fang Jueyu’s eyes were like torches, scanning the remaining group of martial artists’ faces. “I’ll give you one more chance to choose. If you choose to comply with the Shen Gun Bureau’s management, extend two fingers to make a heart symbol now!”
“What? Make a heart? Shouldn’t we be putting down our weapons and surrendering? What kind of move is this?”
“Brother Zhou, are you gonna do it?”
“Nonsense. This advisor is so strong, even Old Master Ou was defeated. We’re all injured. What room do we have for resistance?”
“But he’s just one person. We have dozens of Heavenly Human Realm experts here, plus three hidden Divinity Transformation Realm experts!”
“What’s the use? Who among those Heavenly Human Realm experts could block that swordsmanship move just now?”
“Exactly, if he strikes again like that, none of us would survive together!” Someone pointed to the thirty other superpower users. “Do you think those superpower users are just for show?”
“Earlier, this advisor said these thirty people were personally trained by him… no, personally trained, and the weakest among them defeated the Chairman, a Heavenly Human Realm expert!”
“Then… then shall we give up on resistance?”
“Let’s give up, make the heart!”
“Alright, let’s just make the heart.”
…
Those ancient martial artists looked at each other, whispered among themselves, and after a few seconds, gradually raised their hands, extending two fingers to form an incredibly embarrassing heart shape.
The great momentum was lost; Fang Jueyu had completely conquered everyone present. The Chairman and elders of the Ancient Martial Arts Association let out a long sigh and followed suit, making the heart as a gesture of surrender.
“Wouldn’t it have been better if you’d all listened earlier?” Fang Jueyu said with satisfaction, “I’m a civilized person, yet you force me to act!”
“Civilized…” Bai You and the others immediately showed disdainful expressions. Fang Jueyu either threw money at people or beat them with fists. If such a person were considered civilized, then there wouldn’t be any immoral people in the world.
However, since the Ancient Martial Arts Association returned to Huaxia’s management, from now on, they wouldn’t enjoy the comforts of before. Previously, they could wield power arrogantly in the mundane world, amassing wealth without restraint. But once under regulated management, such opportunities would no longer be available.
They estimated that the best treatment they could expect would be similar to that of Huaxia’s superpower users. Although their lives wouldn’t be strained, they definitely wouldn’t be as luxurious as they were now.
Without those riches, they wouldn’t have resources to train new disciples. Those sects and families would gradually lose their former scale, and eventually, the Ancient Martial Arts Association would become a relic in name only!
“Hey, why are you all looking so glum?” Fang Jueyu looked at the expressionless faces. Was accepting Huaxia’s management really so painful?
“Sigh, Advisor Fang, you just don’t know,” Chen Wei from the Chen family approached and shared their concerns with Fang Jueyu.
Fang Jueyu nodded. It’s normal for them to have such worries, as the costs of practicing ancient martial arts were indeed far greater than those for superpower users. Without their original resources, it was naturally impossible to develop as prosperously as they were currently.
“Small matter, small matter!” Fang Ju expanded his voice using Inner Strength, “I understand your concerns now!”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked up at Fang Jueyu.
“I’m telling you, with Huaxia managing you from now on, your development will only get better!” Fang Jueyu said.
“First of all, everyone’s income will be the same as superpower users, ranked according to strength! While you may not have the previous family or sect structure, task execution will be team-based, and our Shen Gun Bureau won’t interfere with how teams are organized.”
“Second, regarding your benefits, we’ll manage them according to a strict attendance system!”
“An attendance system?” Hearing this term, novel to the ancient martial world, everyone displayed puzzled expressions. Such a system typically only existed in mundane companies.
“According to everyone’s performance, staff from the Shen Gun Bureau will conduct evaluations to determine each individual’s end-of-month rewards. These rewards include alchemical pills and martial arts techniques. For outstanding performers, there are mysterious grand prizes! And everyone will get something!”
“Including alchemical pills and martial arts techniques, and everyone gets something??”
“Impossible, right? There are only three Alchemy Masters in the world, and their alchemical pills are not enough for distribution. How is this possible? Are they trying to deceive us?”
“What, you don’t believe it?” Fang Jueyu laughed, “If you don’t, why don’t you ask them?”
“What? Advisor, what did you say?” those superpower users were daydreaming.
“I’m talking about the alchemical pills and martial arts techniques!”
“Huh? You mean those dark pills you give us to eat every day?”
“Pfft, Advisor, you’re too much, ” the superpower users immediately voiced their grievances, “Those things have no flavor at all. After two months, our mouths have become bland as can be.”
“And your martial arts techniques! They’re strong, yes, but there are too many, and the practice methods are so weird that I have trouble reading them like newspapers. These days I feel like I’m becoming nearsighted!”
…
“What? They eat alchemical pills like food?”
“Did I hear wrong? Martial arts manuals are worse than newspapers?”
“I doubt it, unless someone can explain to me how Huaxia suddenly gained so many superpower users, and they’re all so skilled?”
“Does it mean that if we accept Huaxia’s management, we can be like that too?”
“Oh my god, isn’t that wonderful?”
“Turns out we’ve been exploited by the Ancient Martial Arts Association for so many years!”
“Hmph, they must have only been looking out for their own self-interests, completely disregarding ours. They’re the ones getting rich, taking all the good stuff for themselves!”
“Biss!”
“Tonight, Sun Xinghe bisss the horse!”
Unexpectedly, Fang Jueyu’s words not only made them completely willing to accept Huaxia’s management but also develop hatred toward the Ancient Martial Arts Association.
Those members of the Ancient Martial Arts Association looked dejected. From this day forward, the Ancient Martial Arts Association would completely vanish from Huaxia…
What do you think?
