At noon that day.

The official Limit Martial Hall website updated a piece of news, which spread to the five major powers and various base cities across the globe almost instantly, rapidly drawing the attention of various factions.

You must know that the last person announced on the official website was none other than that deeply sighed-over legendary genius Luo Feng!

For a behemoth like the Limit Martial Hall, there was simply no need to snow-cover geniuses. Although the official website did not disclose the specific contents of the contract, it displayed the final score of Yang Zheng's first time entering the Trial Tower.

Trial Tower Level 2.3.

This instantly caused various factions to seethe. For these super-powerful organizations, if it were merely a rapid enhancement of physical fitness, it would not have been enough to shock them this much.

A few hours after the information was updated on the official website, special departments of some government and military organizations, as well as the nine core families of the HR Alliance, received a detailed profile of Yang Zheng.

A few hours after the official website information update, some special government and military departments, along with the nine core families of the HR Alliance, obtained detailed information regarding Yang Zheng.

Huaxia Country, Kyoto Base City.

Inside a building constructed underground, within a tastefully decorated office on the third underground level.

"Trial Tower Level 2.3!"

"Trial Tower Level 2.3!"

A lean man with a black mole on his chin, wearing loose martial arts attire, gently tapped on the desk with one hand while leafing through the materials about Yang Zheng in his other hand.

"Although Yang Zheng belongs to the Limit Martial Hall, he is also a rare genius of our Huaxia Country. I remember some of this year's Jade Marrow within the department remains unallocated; since that is the case, take out a portion and send it over as a gift."

"Understood!"

Although the subordinate standing to the side was somewhat astonished, he nodded hastily in response, a trace of envy involuntarily welling up in his heart.

Jade Marrow!

Although its effect on enhancing physical fitness was not as potent as Dragon Blood, it definitely belonged to among the mildest medicinal treasures in existence.

Moreover, Jade Marrow could be used to save one's life at critical moments, making it definitively one of the most coveted treasures desired by special personnel like them who walked the line between life and death.

"In addition, issue an order to the Jiangnan Base City branch, step up the protection of Luo Feng's family, and secretly gather evidence. The tentacles of the Underground Alliance are truly reaching further and further."

"Have Liu Yan take charge of this matter!"

The lean man's gaze was cold and stern. Back then, in order to stretch its hands into Huaxia Country, the Underground Alliance had even spared no cost to support the Wang Family, fortunately thwarted by Councilor Jia's intervention.

Nowadays, although the Kyoto Wang Family held some power, the overarching authority still remained grasped in the hands of the state.

Jiangnan City, Shanshui Residential Area, Huayao Peak hilltop villa.

As the executive president of the HR Alliance's Huaxia region, Venina Polenas obtained this information at close to the very first moment.

"Yang Zheng is actually a Spirit Reader as well?"

Upon turning to the very first page of this material, Vulture Li Yao instantly recalled Luo Feng, the enemy who had killed his son.

"Spirit Readers are indeed a group to be envied!" Venina Polenas could not help nodding as well.

At the same tier, when it comes to the power of Spiritual Force, even if a Spirit Reader only reached the minimum limit of that tier, they held an overwhelmingly superior advantage in the flexibility and bizarre unpredictability of using that power.

Every single Spirit Reader could sweep across almost the vast majority of martial artists at the same tier.

"It's a pity his father is a Limit Martial Hall executive, belonging to the core lineage of the Limit Martial Hall." Venina shook her head and said, "Otherwise, the family would definitely find a way to win over this Yang Zheng and make him serve our Polenas Family."

"Since it's destined that he cannot be won over, we just need to make sure to maintain a good relationship with him normally."

Li Yao put away the remaining documents, a flash of cold light in his eyes. "That operation targeting Luo Feng's family has already begun, hasn't it?"

"It has already begun!"

Venina sneered and said, "I've arranged the forces of the HR Alliance, and I am employing worldly means. I cannot let them die just like that; I want to torture them slowly."

Luo Feng's family members were, after all, dependents of the Limit Martial Hall. No matter how much the Vulture couple hated Luo Feng, they did not dare to directly take action and kill them.

Otherwise, according to the laws of the War God Palace, they would have to pay with their lives.

Furthermore, within Huaxia Country, the influence of the HR Alliance could not compare to the state's special departments. Even when operating in the shadows, they had to act with extreme caution.

"Well done!"

Li Yao's eyes seemingly carried a terrifying green light. "They must be tortured slowly, driven to a state of self-collapse, and even led to commit suicide out of agony!"

The enmity of murdering a son.

Must be repaid with a life.

Kyoto City main urban area, Wangfu Residential Area.

"Yang Zheng?"

"Is that the child the second son picked up?"

An opulent bald elder sat in his seat, his seemingly cloudy eyes revealing a trace of shrewdness.

"Yes, Dad!"

The middle-aged man beside him said hurriedly, "He's also the one who beat Xing'an into a cripple yesterday. Dad, we simply cannot let him off easily."

His son Wang Xing'an's miserable state caused Wang Yanzhao to involuntarily recall his own past encounters. After obtaining Yang Zheng's photograph from the base city's surveillance system, the anger within his heart became even harder to suppress.

"Shut up!"

"This matter ends here!"

The Wang Family Patriarch roared angrily. It was fine for this third son to pull petty stunts in ordinary times-after all, his Wang Family had the capability to sweep the matter under the rug-but now, it not only involved the Limit Martial Hall, but was also connected to the second son, Wang Yanming.

Under these circumstances.

Naturally, cementing relationships took priority, and the best move was to summon the second son back into the Wang Family, thereby pulling in Yang Zheng-a genius valued by the Limit Martial Hall-and binding him to the Wang Family's chariot.

Over the years, he had consistently intended to bring the second son back, and now he needed to accelerate that progress even more.

As for that grandson Wang Xing'an, as long as he wasn't beaten to death on the spot, the Wang Family's methods could heal him back up. Before family interests and heritage, what did a single grandson amount to?

Young people, after all.

Having a few minor frictions was quite normal.

Northwest Base City main urban area, inside Canglan Residential Area Villa No. 001.

"You've reached the Advanced General Level just like that?"

On the second-floor martial arts training hall, Wang Jiu and Zheng Cangli had just finished accompanying Inspector Liu. After the latter finished inspecting the work and they watched him board that purplish-red triangular fighter jet and depart,

the moment he returned home, he was drawn by the sounds coming from the second-floor martial arts training hall. Upon going up, he discovered that series of startling data.

Looking at the son standing before him, Wang Jiu felt a sense of relief while simultaneously feeling

somewhat aggrieved.

He had strived for over a dozen years, yet he fell short of his own son's improvement over the course of a single morning. Moreover, physical fitness at the Advanced General Level meant that his spiritual force had reached the Intermediate War God Level.

In terms of strength, he had already surpassed this father of his.

This was a genius.

A genius's cultivation speed always made one feel envy and jealousy.

"You've already surpassed me now. Cultivate well, and I look forward to the day you reach the pinnacle of martial artists!"

Wang Jiu patted Yang Zheng's shoulder, and after offering a few words of encouragement, he walked toward the living room downstairs. Only, that retreating figure carried a trace of desolation.
