Fang Ping's Plan! (Seeking Follow-up Reads)

Magic Martial University.

Fang Ping stared at the preview on the Sky Screen, completely dumbfounded!

The Future Human King "Guardian" Ranking List!

The Sky Screen was going to indirectly expose him!

That damn Sky Screen, it won't give up on trying to ruin me!

Fang Ping felt numb, cursing under his breath.

It was one thing to drag him into it when exposing the Grey Cat and the War Heavenly Emperor, but now there was a Future Human King Guardian Ranking List!

Did the Sky Screen think his situation was too safe, or that he lacked the motivation to grow stronger?

Fang Ping was speechless, his heart pounding with terror, yet he did not lose his composure.

First of all, the Sky Screen had placed the word "Guardian" in quotation marks in the preview.

His academic grades were good, so he naturally understood the implication of quotation marks.

But what exactly did the Sky Screen mean?

Was this even a legitimate ranking list?

Fang Ping felt some doubt, and even more intense conflict.

If it were truly a legitimate list, he would inevitably be exposed, and his situation would become precarious once he was forced into a passive position.

But even if he took the initiative to reveal that he was the future Human King brought back from the Seed's inner world by the War Heavenly Emperor, would anyone believe him?

I'm laying my cards on the table, no more pretending, I am the future Human King!

Fang Ping feared the school would diagnose him with insanity and kick him out of the building.

If he displayed something unusual and utilized his system to manifest his "uniqueness," he might gain the trust of Martial King Zhang Tao and the others.

But he was currently just a lowly freshman at Magic Martial University, a Rank-1 martial artist.

Let alone meeting Martial King Zhang Tao, he probably couldn't even get into the building where they stayed!

Report it to the school first?

Don't joke around!

What if there were malicious people within the school, or even moles from the Earth Cave, the Divine Sect, Heaven Beyond Heaven, or the Overseas Immortal Islands? Wouldn't he be exposing himself to hostile forces first?

Even without infiltration by external enemies, were all the school leaders united as one?

Fang Ping remembered that Tang Feng and the others didn't exactly have a friendly attitude toward him.

Some people in the Martial Arts Club even wanted to bully him and cripple him just because he had some connection to Wang Jinyang!

In such an environment, Fang Ping didn't even dare to fully trust his mentor, Lv Fengrou, let alone those school leaders.

He feared that his report wouldn't reach Martial King Zhang Tao, but would instead be leaked and end up in the hands of unscrupulous opportunists.

Fang Ping was not a real student; he had already stepped into society in his past life and had been beaten down by it.

There were scumbags among humanity too!

If these scumbags learned of his special nature, even if he weren't the future Human King, he would likely end up on an operating table having his blood and bone marrow extracted.

It was even possible that they would imprison, control, or dissect him.

Thinking of all this, Fang Ping felt a complex mix of emotions.

He couldn't even reveal his system to Martial King Zhang Tao with 100% certainty of safety.

Furthermore, his importance was self-evident now.

What if the Emperors were monitoring the Human Realm?

Could Martial King Zhang Tao, the Heaven Suppressing King, and the others withstand the Emperors?

Also, how would the Martial King and the Heaven Suppressing King treat him?

Would they control him, restrict his personal freedom, or use him for research?

The more he thought, the more chaotic Fang Ping's mind became.

"Damn it!"

Fang Ping couldn't help but let out a curse.

He was actually powerless at this moment; there was nothing he could do!

"Fang Ping, are you inside? The mentor is calling us for a meeting!"

Zhao Xuemei's voice came from outside the room.

"I'm here."

Fang Ping rubbed his face, gathered his thoughts, and hurriedly opened the door to step out.

Zhao Xuemei looked at Fang Ping with some confusion, but she didn't ask any questions, and the two of them headed together to Lv Fengrou's large house.

Lv Fengrou locked the door tightly and looked at Fang Ping and Zhao Xuemei with a serious expression.

"A notice has come down from above: all talented students from freshman to senior year at Magic Martial University, as well as students with exceptional character, are to report to the Magic City Military Department tonight."

"Fang Ping, you are on the list."

Upon hearing this, Fang Ping felt a surge of panic in his heart.

"Instructor, can I choose not to go?"

He couldn't shake the feeling that this wasn't a good thing.

Lv Fengrou shook her head, "No one can refuse."

She hesitated for a moment before saying tactfully:

"When you get there, if the military asks you to cooperate with something that isn't in your best interest, if you aren't willing, just pretend to be afraid."

Fang Ping's face turned completely pale!

They were looking for a scapegoat!

Lv Fengrou sighed softly, her expression filled with grief and indignation.

The human race was simply too weak!

At this moment, Fang Ping's mood was incredibly complex.

On one hand, he felt it was unfair to everyone else who wasn't the future Human King.

On the other hand, he felt irritable, ashamed, and even burning with rage.

If the Sky Screen hadn't exposed everything, he could have grown naturally without needing to be thrust into such a dangerous situation, nor would others have to sacrifice themselves for him!

But in truth, he still couldn't fully trust anyone else.

Right now, it seemed only Wang Jinyang was someone he could truly rely on.

"Fang Ping, you can make a phone call to your parents, but remember not to say too much," Lv Fengrou reminded him.

Fang Ping nodded.

After leaving Lv Fengrou's office, he first called Wang Jinyang.

"Don't worry too much."

Wang Jinyang's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Just firmly refuse them."

Wang Jinyang had already been approached by the Nanjiang Governor, and he had refused point-blank.

If they asked him to go to the Earth Cave to kill enemies, he wouldn't frown or complain even if he died in battle.

But if they wanted him to act as a decoy for someone else, he would never agree to it.

Don't talk to him about the "greater good"—he was just a Rank 4 martial artist, and that moral posturing wouldn't work on him.

"Brother Wang, I understand."

Fang Ping thanked him a few times before hanging up.

After ending the call, Fang Ping took a deep breath.

He still decided to play the role of this "decoy."

While others were carrying the burden forward, he, the future Human King, was hiding in the shadows... although he was afraid of death, he wasn't willing to do something so cowardly!

Of course, the best-case scenario would be if he could meet someone with real influence who was actually a good person.

"Human King Guardian Ranking List... if they really are making a list, Wang Jinyang must be on it!"

Fang Ping pondered.

Wang Jinyang could be considered his mentor in the martial path, so he definitely fell into the category of a "guardian."

If Wang Jinyang made the list, he would be even more certain of it.

"Damn that Sky Screen, it ruined my path to development!"

Fang Ping glared fiercely at the Sky Screen, cursing under his breath.

Meanwhile, In the Primordial Martial Continent.

"The Primordial Martial is also part of the human race; the Human King should belong to us as well!"

Ten thousand years ago, during the struggle for the Great Dao, the Primordial Martial lost and could not pass on their martial arts.

But now that the Sky Screen had descended, it was highly likely that the Heavenly Emperor had already been killed by the Spirit Emperor!

It was time for the Primordial Martial to emerge!

They had fallen in the past, but if they could get a share of the spoils today, perhaps they could spread their teachings to the Human Realm!

It was just that, the Grey Cat...

"Meow!"

The Grey Cat stared at the Sky Screen, its cat eyes round and wide.

"Fatty, the Sky Screen said earlier that I became an Emperor Cat and a Seed Cat by following the future Human King.

Should I go find him now?"

Spirit Emperor's eyes turned sharp: "Grey Cat, you cannot leave!"

The Three Realms are currently surging with wind and clouds, and the future Human King is the center of the vortex.

If Grey Cat goes out, it will inevitably be drawn into the fray, and might even be severely wounded or killed!

Grey Cat looked confused: "But if I don't go find him, will I still be able to eat the Seed in the future?"

Spirit Emperor patted the cat's head and glared at it.

This silly cat only ever thinks about food!

In the Earth Cave, King Huai was somewhat delighted.

The future Human King's Guardian Ranking... wouldn't he be able to claim another reward?

In the Origin Source, Western Emperor was dejected; the new list exposed by the Sky Screen didn't include him either.

When will he ever be able to transcend?

At Southern Martial University, Zhang Xuan looked at the golden screen before him, feeling slightly surprised.

"I didn't expect War Heavenly Emperor to make such a wish." Zhang Xuan shook his head and smiled, not offering too much judgment on the wish of War Heavenly Emperor.

He put away the system screen and watched the Sky Screen with interest, secretly observing the movements of various factions.

"Busy, everyone is busy. It's good to be busy."

At this moment, all parties in the Three Realms want to find the future Human King, claim him as their own, and use him for their own ends!

Such behavior is truly greedy.

How can an investment made with ambition and ulterior motives ever yield a true return?

However, the Earth Cave is quite interesting.

They actually want to mold a Human King that belongs to the Earth Cave!

Can this succeed?

Zhang Xuan was very curious.

The Earth Cave is currently playing both sides, waiting for the Sky Screen to reveal information about the future Human King.

At the same time, they have gathered the most talented and high-potential youths from the two great Royal Courts to cultivate them with all their might!

They really have some ideas.

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh; God Forger's assessment of King Ming in the original story was actually quite spot on.

King Ming dares to think and dares to act; he carries the pressure, yet he still dares to fight!

But the blood feud between the Human Realm and the Earth Cave is destined to lead the Earth Cave to its destruction!

The Emperors and the powerhouses of the Three Realms could never truly allow the Earth Cave to invade the Human Realm, let alone allow the Earth Cave to completely suppress humanity!

After all, the Seed is in the Human Realm.

If human martial arts wither and the population drops, how would they find the Seed?

How would the Emperors trapped in the Origin Source use the human race to fill the pit?

The Earth Cave martial artists lose because they are artificial beings.

However, if the four Royal Courts of the Earth Cave worked together with one heart, they might not be unable to cultivate an Emperor of the Earth Cave!

"It's a pity that there are too many kings, and each has too many schemes and hidden agendas of their own."

Zhang Xuan shook his head; the Earth Cave cannot be as united as New Martial Arts.

Because, New Martial Arts is deformed!

Heaven Suppressing King, Chen Guyang, Zhang Tao... generations of management have made New Martial Arts somewhat deformed.

The evil in human nature is covered up by the greater cause and suppressed by the greater cause.

There is still evil, but there are far more people willing to sacrifice for the greater cause—an overwhelming majority!

With such an opponent, the Earth Cave cannot defeat the Human Realm.

"The new list should be starting soon!"

Seven days later, at high noon.

The golden light of the Sky Screen rippled, reflecting across the Three Realms!

"The Sky Screen is finally going to be revealed again!"

"Update quickly, update quickly!"

"I really wish the Sky Screen would reveal a hundred rankings in one go so I could enjoy it all at once!"

"The future Human King's protector, that Seven-Surname Slave King Huai is going to be on the list to receive rewards again, I'm so envious!"

"The Earth Emperor and the War Heavenly Emperor must be on the list too!"

"I wonder who the future Human King actually is? Is he handsome, is he rich, and is he worthy of marrying me?"

"Uh... am I the only one who thinks this list probably won't be very serious?"

"..."

The golden light of the Sky Screen rippled, and the people of the Three Realms looked up one after another, discussing excitedly, looking forward to getting a taste of some fresh gossip.

The God Emperor, the Eastern Emperor, and the others were equally curious.

King Ming, King Feng, and their peers had already compiled some information regarding the powerhouses and grandmasters of the Human Realm.

They felt that the future Human King should already be showing signs of prominence by now.

He couldn't possibly still be a Rank-1 martial artist, could he?

Ji Yao was quite curious; would the future Human King have an image as domineering as the Earth Emperor?

Feng, King Xun, King Gen, and the others could not hide their excitement either.

Finding the future Human King would not only allow them to obtain rewards from the Human Emperor and the Seed, but they could also follow the trail to uncover the Three Emperors Great Dao.

In the Human Realm, Zhang Tao, Li Zhen, Nan Yunyue, and the Heaven Suppressing King stared at the Sky Screen without blinking.

They were already prepared to bring the Human King's "protector" back at any moment.

[Tenth place on the Human King "Protector" list: Top Donor Huang Bin!]

"Huh???"

"Huang Bin, who is this?"

"Top Donor! Did he give tips to the future Human King?"

Those who knew Huang Bin and those who didn't were all bewildered.

Fang Ping was also stunned, dumbfounded!

"Huang Bin... so this counts as a 'protector' too!"

It turns out the meaning of the quotation marks was truly negation and irony.

A wild list, a purely wild list!

What "Top Donor," he was clearly a gift-giving boy!

At Southern Martial University, Wang Jinyang was also dumbfounded.

Huang Bin... was it the same Huang Bin that he and Fang Ping had killed?

If it really was this Huang Bin, then wouldn't the future Human King be one of the two of them?

Wang Jinyang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Zhang Tao, Nan Yunyue, and Li Zhen immediately became busy.

"Huang Bin... which Huang Bin is it exactly?"

There was the politician Huang Bin, the businessman Huang Bin, the ordinary person Huang Bin, and even the dead Huang Bin... which one was the future Human King's Top Donor?

The kings of the Earth Cave were not in a hurry; they waited quietly for the Sky Screen to introduce Huang Bin.

[Huang Bin gave everything he had voluntarily to the future Human King, which was particularly critical to the beginning of the future Human King's martial path!]

"What the hell, 'voluntarily'!"

Fang Ping's mouth twitched.

However, when he thought about it carefully, after he had taken Huang Bin down, the man had indeed said, "Now all these things are yours."

He could only say that the Sky Screen knew how to play!

The "protectors" that followed probably wouldn't be legitimate protectors either.

At this moment, the Three Realms exploded.

"No, that's it?"

"Is it really this short and weak?!"

"Just one line of description! The Sky Screen couldn't even be bothered to pad it out to a hundred words!"

"And this is supposed to be 'particularly critical'? There should be more of a description!"

"..."

King Ming and the others were completely numb; a description of less than 50 words... how could they possibly find Huang Bin!

It seemed they could only wait for Martial King Zhang Tao and the others to find him first.

They refused to believe that the Martial King and the Heaven Suppressing King would allow the future Human King to never enter the Earth Cave or participate in combat for the rest of his life!

Feng, King Gen, and King Xun were also dumbfounded.

It was so short and brief!

"This... there should be more of a description, right? It can't just give out the reward directly, can it?"

[Reward: A villa, a luxury car, and a beautiful woman!]

"It really is that short and brief!"

King Gen exclaimed in shock, his expression turning blank.

The reward given was far too ordinary!

"No, why has the Sky Screen suddenly become so stingy?"

"A villa, a luxury car, a beautiful woman... what is the use of these!"

"At least give us some martial arts resources!"

Everyone in the Three Realms was stunned.

Fang Ping, however, was numb!

A villa, a luxury car, a beautiful woman... so it was meant to be burned down for Huang Bin.

In a certain place, A large paper-crafted villa, a luxury car, and a paper beauty were burning, with Huang Bin's birth date and name written upon them.

At Southern Martial University, Wang Jinyang was also dazed for a moment.

The Sky Screen was truly full of surprises!

However, could the future Human King really be him or Fang Ping?

If that were truly the case, should he report himself?

What if someone with ulterior motives discovered him and Fang Ping? How would they protect themselves?

Wang Jinyang's brows were tightly locked.

On the other side, Zhang Tao and the others were conducting a thorough investigation.

"How could there be nothing?"

Zhang Tao frowned; there was no one named Huang Bin who had suddenly received a villa, a beauty, and a luxury car.

Of course, it was possible that the person already possessed these things, so an extra set, an extra car, and an extra person wouldn't be conspicuous.

"Perhaps this Huang Bin is already dead?"

Zhang Tao fell into deep thought, then immediately issued an order.

"Investigate the martial arts students immediately! Find out who has been in contact with someone named Huang Bin!"
