See You in Western Capital

"This is Zuoqimu!"

"Those clowns are nothing to fear. With General Zhao's coattails, there's no need for us in Western Capital City and Wanping Province to engage in verbal sparring!"

As they passed Zuoqimu again, Zhang Xuezhou pointed downwards.

Before the chaotic situation in Wanping Province was quelled, not only was Zhang Xuezhou's work in Wanping risky and prone to being used against him, Wang Haoran and others were no different, and could only rely on their numerous connections with the Sequence Committee to protect themselves.

Zhang Xuezhou's position as an alternate member of the committee serves as a shield against both overt and covert attacks; having secured this qualification, Zhang Xuezhou no longer needs to worry about administrative troubles.

However, this identity is far less useful than Zhao Tianhua's disguise. If Zuo Qimu reports the problem to higher authorities, he will not only fail to receive full assistance from the middle and upper levels, but will also face a retrospective investigation, which may even affect the crackdown on related incidents in a large area of Wanping Province.

Wang Haoran muttered to himself, "Before going to Wanping Province, you can't be too careful. Once you understand the situation, you can act without fear."

This trip to Wanping Province had a very positive impact on the situation in the Scarlet Alliance State.

"Your situation is quite explosive right now, and it's caused quite a stir!"

Qin Wenhan pointed with great interest to the numerous news items displayed on the monitor.

Zuo Teng, as the first person to try out the Youth Challenge, has received a lot of attention, and his resume is practically perfect.

The subsequent performances of Jiang Feng, Luo Gaogao, Luo Cheng, Fang Na, Yagedan, and Zheng Hua can only be described as outstanding. Each fierce battle brought a visual feast of sequential combat techniques, and their resumes were also top-notch.

When it came to Zhang Xuezhou's turn in the youth challenge, it was a complete rout. This rout has sparked countless discussions about whether Zhang Xuezhou is the strongest among the alternate committee members.

Zhang Xuezhou is usually quite low-key, and much information about him remains undiscovered, adding to his mystique and making him a target of constant inquiries from various parties.

This was just a ripple among ordinary people, but the fact that Song Fengying's live stream received nearly full donations for almost ten minutes also had a tremendous impact, affecting not only ordinary people but also the opinions of many Lineage in various provinces and cities.

Cash flow isn't a problem for these Lineage; receiving donations from numerous Lineage is effortless. However, a massive cash flow also means that the other party is being protected by many powerful figures, or perhaps this is just a celebration for them.

Furthermore, some high-level officials have guessed who those strings of IDs belong to.

It has to be said that this kind of grand display not only intimidated Zhao Tianhua at the scene, but also many other people.

However, once the relationship between Flying Entertainment Livestream and Zhang Xuezhou and others is clear, this kind of tipping becomes very easy to understand, and it is also the best way for Changkong Luo and others to transfer money.

As they moved closer to Zhenxiong Province, where communication infrastructure was relatively normal, Zhang Xuezhou's communicator kept ringing with messages.

"Just lift it up and it'll go down!"

Zhang Xuezhou replied, constantly checking the information he needed to respond to.

His approach to such incidents has always been to ignore them, until others lose interest in him, and then the matter is over.

Moreover, there's not much to dig into his situation; he's simply close to the members of the Sequence Committee, has shared common interests with the senior members of the Twilight Years Mansion, and is on good terms with the outstanding young generation in Western Capital City.

Once he can operate the backend of Flying Entertainment Livestream and reduce the weight of his own videos and other content, the noisy discussions on the internet will naturally subside quickly.

As for Zhang Xuezhou's family issues, although there were clues to be found, Zhang Xuezhou did not think that anyone would be so eager as to rush into the research institute in North Rehe to gather information. Song Fengying was very safe traveling with Wang Haoran and others, and Zhang Weimeng did not live in a fixed residence, so he was almost impossible to be disturbed.

"He's never cared about these kinds of outside opinions," Wang Haoran laughed. "What's glory for others is just a nuisance to him!"

"If this happened when we were in our twenties or thirties, we'd probably be so excited we couldn't sleep for days and nights, right?" Qin Wenhan laughed.

"I get so excited that I can't sleep for days and nights!"

Zhang Xuezhou replied, which left Wang Haoran speechless, while Qin Wenhan was at a loss for words.

With Zhang Xuezhou's physique, it's normal for him to either sleep soundly or wake up for days on end, making it difficult to distinguish between genuine excitement and feigned excitement. Only those close to him truly know the situation.

"I've met you in Western Capital City!"

After three key military locations in Wanping Province changed aircraft one after another, Zhang Xuezhou finally saw the airport he had previously passed through in Zhenxiong Province.

As he stepped out of the aircraft, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, realizing that without administrative connections, it would be extremely difficult to quickly reach Wanping Province.

Zhang Xuezhou greeted Wang Haoran and then waved to Song Fengying was not yet out of the aircraft.

When Song Fengying interviewed Zhang Xuezhou several years ago, she didn't flaunt "this is my son" on camera, trying her best to avoid the risk of defaulting on debts. Now, Song Fengying is also avoiding the risk.

Having witnessed so many battles among the young Sequence Holder, Song Fengying knew very well that the upper class relied on top-level violence to establish itself.

This is the most direct tool for ruling a country, and it is manifested in all sorts of people.

Although society continues to develop and progress, the essence of the state has not changed; it is still governed by people with powerful violence.

This change in individual form brought about by technology has concentrated the influence of hundreds or thousands of elite troops into the single commander, and has also led to a faster way of handling things.

In such a transformation, if one cannot adapt or keep up with the pace, the risks will come much faster than in the past.

It's understandable that Song Fengying was being cautious.

She even continued to broaden her horizons and improve her sequence abilities as Zhang Xuezhou requested, attempting to enter the Fourth Sequence.

"You rascal, you saw how your son did? Stop sitting around all day doing nothing, come with us to improve your rank and try not to hold us back!"

As Zhang Xuezhou headed to the airport ticketing center and the aircraft underwent another battery replacement, Song Fengying quickly sent a message to Zhang Weimeng.

"This Gene Sequence focuses on external training but neglects internal training. I feel that pushing the Gene Sequence forward in this way will be too forceful and lead to breakage!"

"The human body has a limited capacity for genetic information; the gene sequence cannot be pushed forward indefinitely while maintaining a human form!"

"If one cannot maintain a human form, it also means that one will deviate from human concepts and nature!"

"You should practice Xuezhou Zhou's skills more, the series that Manqian taught you about the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra!"

"I believe that Gene Sequence can only exist as an auxiliary capability, not as a dominant capability that continuously drives progress!"

Zhang Weimeng rarely responded to Song Fengying's messages. After promoting the TV series "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer," he went silent, as if he were dead.

Song Fengying was surprised to see Zhang Weimeng sending out one message after another.

"I have now cultivated true internal energy, and I can project it over a hundred meters away," Zhang Weimeng sent a message. "Once you experience this kind of internal energy, you will understand the backwardness and impracticality of the Gene Sequence!"

"That's because you haven't seen a real Gene Sequence," Song Fengying retorted. "If you had seen the Gene Sequence of those upper-class people, you wouldn't have this view!"

"I'll say it again, the human body has a limited capacity," Zhang Weimeng warned. "The Gene Sequence is squeezing every inch of the human body's potential. Once this potential is insufficient to support foreign genes, humans will turn into beasts. Unless a way to expand human potential is found, this Gene Sequence will become an anti-human, stronger force!"

"You're just a writer, not a genetics professional. You can't just guess based on your imagination," Song Fengying advised.

"Once you elevate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra to the level of projecting internal energy externally, you'll understand the profound mystery of this inner strength that originates from within yourself!"

"Once you master the Flying Sheep Wall Running and bounding' technique, you'll discover the vastness and breadth of the world. The rapid reaction speed it brings can truly evade gunfire—it's so powerful I can't even fully share it with you!"

Zhang Weimeng and Song Fengying had an argument.

Zhang Weimeng felt that Song Fengying was unreasonable and would not listen to his loyal and devoted advice. No matter what, Zhang Weimeng would not use such a thing to harm people.

Song Fengying felt that Zhang Weimeng's thinking was outdated and he was unable to keep up with the great era of genetic development. His lack of knowledge also blinded Zhang Weimeng, making Zhang Weimeng unable to extricate himself from his own Heaven and Earth of thinking.

The argument between the two ended inconclusively.

After arguing for a while, the two of them stormed off in a huff.
