Master Tried to Shake Me Down
Tang Ping returned to the Wind-Thunder Secret Realm, once again enjoying the bliss of having two women on his left and right.
Our master, Venerable Wind-Thunder Venerable, has long since departed.
As one of the top 52 Human Race powerhouses, she was usually so busy that she didn't have much free time to waste on a "little kid" like him.
However, that wretched master, having learned countless essences from Earth's culture, set him an outrageous KPI before leaving.
Returning after a thousand years, he is required to reach the eighth level of the "Vast" Divine Weapon Law Comprehension: the Void Sword Slashing Time! In other words, within a short span of a thousand years, he must elevate his Law Comprehension to the level of an ordinary Immortal God.
If you can't complete it, then you must "abstain from lust for a thousand years" and practice asceticism; of course, since it's a KPI, there will be performance evaluation. If you can achieve it perfectly, you can make any wish to your master.
Tang Ping had already decided on his wish: the Beast God Blood!
This is an advanced version of the Xueluo Crystal, which is not only easier to absorb, but also far more effective in improving one's foundation level. Of course, such Supreme Treasure is also incredibly expensive, and even ordinary Cosmic Venerable may not be qualified to purchase it.
When Wind-Thunder Venerable heard his disciple's request, he was speechless, but eventually nodded in agreement, only with the condition that if he was still Blood Warrior a thousand years later, he could only give him a maximum of 10 drops; but if he could become Black Warrior was rare in ten million years and fused more than ten Xueluo Crystal, he would be given 50 drops directly!
Alas, where can one find another master who is so understanding and willing to spend lavishly?
After a moment of reflection, Tang Ping withdrew from Huo Wu's warm embrace, stood up expressionlessly, and went straight back to his Cultivation Room.
Day one of abstaining from pornography!
With a thought, he accessed the virtual universe and directly entered the core network segment of the Ganwu Universe Kingdom.
Recently, the news that the Luo Family demolished their home planet Earth and offered 100,000 times the original price as compensation has surprisingly topped the trending search list in the Ganwu Universe Kingdom.
According to the ironclad laws of the universe, the Luo Family, as the Earth Lord, theoretically possesses absolute control over this planet. If they wanted to expel people, it would be a simple matter of a word. Yet, they've gone against the grain, offering such exorbitant compensation to ordinary citizens who haven't even reached the Star Rank?
"He's a disgrace to the lords!" Many Universe Level corporations have condemned him, saying, "This isn't about breaking market rules."
Will it hinder industry prosperity and add pressure to competitors?
However, ordinary citizens of the Universe Country were full of praise and admiration. For them, encountering such a powerful force that treated ordinary people well was an incredible stroke of luck.
Some people scoffed, "The Luo Family relies on a mere Domain Lord- level backer. What makes them think that being born on Earth will produce more geniuses? Is there any scientific basis for this? Is there any official certification?"
Shortly after this statement went viral online, the newly established "Genius Incubation Company" section on the Luo Family website released a major piece of evidence:
[Jointly certified by the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and Virtual Universe Company: The Solar System was once modified by powerful Alien Race. Children born on Earth possess a natural advantage in temperament, with a few geniuses even showing potential surpassing world lords and immortals.]
[Note: The auction for Earth's annual birth quota is now open. Limited to nine million births per year, all Human Race and social statuses are welcome to participate.]
Wow! With the backing of two of humanity's top powers, this is incredibly valuable!
"Maybe my child can become a peerless genius like Luo Feng?"
"Charge! For our children's future, any amount of money is worth it!"
In just a few days, the auction price for Earth birth slots skyrocketed, with the highest transaction price exceeding 1 billion Black Dragon Coin. This price is enough to buy an ordinary mineral-rich planet!
To be willing to pay such an exorbitant price for a potential "genius probability" truly shows the boundless love and concern of parents.
Many Universe Level experts predict that this price is probably just the bottom line, since everyone still has a limited understanding of the specific probability and extent of the Earth's environment improving one's state of mind, as well as whether there are potential impacts from the modifications made by Alien Race powers.
A chain reaction ensued: Luo Concept Stocks soared like rockets, especially those related to Earth's real estate, which experienced explosive growth.
The global stock market has no limits on price fluctuations; doubling in a single day is commonplace.
Seeing his "Lay Flat Finance" assets in his virtual account instantly multiply tenfold, Tang Ping almost burst out laughing.
[Lay Flat Finance | Total Assets: 77,400 Hunyuan | Monthly Return: 1000%]
[Lay Flat Capital | Total Assets: 1800 Hunyuan | Monthly Return: 20%]
The Pingping growth of Lay Flat Capital is mainly due to the fact that when it sold 51% of its shares to the Virtual Universe Company Ganwu Branch, its real estate business was spun off separately.
Tang Ping couldn't help but chuckle to himself: He wondered if Sun Ruowei, the manager in charge of the transaction, was regretting it terribly now.
So much fun! It's absolutely hilarious!
Including the one million Hunyuan Luo Feng had previously given him, his total assets have now reached 1,077,400 Hunyuan! Such wealth is something that even a weak Marquis Rank might not be able to accumulate, let alone Ordinary Immortal.
"Does this make me the second richest person in the Milky Way Galaxy?" Tang Ping thought to himself with a smug smile.
That's the allure of finance—one step to heaven, one step to hell, and he clearly stepped onto the springboard to heaven.
Now that you have money, what should you do? Enjoy life, of course! Why would you be foolish enough to start a business?
Tang Ping took out a newly purchased Life Fruit from his Space Ring; he had stockpiled a whole ton of these. The fruit melted in his mouth, and its pure energy instantly swept over his entire body, sweeping away the fatigue left from his previous cultivation and putting him in peak condition.
He pushed open the door to the Cultivation Room, and the air seemed to be filled with a sweet fragrance of happiness.
"This is what life is all about!"
Tang Ping opened the virtual contact platform, filtered out all female contacts in the Wind-Thunder Secret Realm, selected them all with one click, and sent a unified message:
[Come to the Heavenly Sound Pavilion for a musical performance! Tonight, all expenses are on Mr. Tang! Let the music play, let's dance, and drink until we drop!]
As soon as the message was sent, the Smart Assistant instantly became busy, with all sorts of replies pouring in: some clever ones directly attached revealing photos, some sensible ones said "we can't let Young Master Tang spend money" and offered to split the bill, and others couldn't wait to ask about the specific time.
However, a message highlighted in bold red made Tang Ping freeze instantly, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Wind-Thunder Venerable:?
Oh no! I forgot to exclude Master!
Before Tang Ping could even think of a way to smooth things over, Wind-Thunder Venerable sent his second message: "I won't join in this fun. I heard you made a small fortune, send me a bottle of 'Time-Boiled Rain' wine, it's not expensive, only a thousand Hunyuan at the internal price."
Tang Ping almost burst into tears when he saw the message.
Extreme joy can turn into sorrow; there is no greater tragedy than this!
Waaaaah~
