Chapter 71 – Spirit, Will

A corner of the hall.
“Luo Feng, what do you like to eat, it’s your first time here today, my treat.” Yang Hui smiled and took the menu from the waiter next to him and handed it to Luo Feng.
“Oh?”
Luo Feng curiously took it, the whole menu opened to have a look, this every kind of drink, dishes, are described in Chinese and English respectively, and at the back, with earth coins, Chinese coins, US dollars, euros, rubles (Soviet Russia), rupees (Indian country), write out the price.
“A glass of wine, nearly one hundred thousand dollars?”
“What is this ‘Dragon Liver’ 880,000 dollars? Well, general dishes are okay, like 100,000 Chinese dollars or so.” Luo Feng was shocked in his heart, he couldn’t help but smile towards the next few gods of war, smiling, “Everyone, this is my first time coming to this god of war palace, but I have to say, the dishes here are pretty expensive.”
The dishes and wines in the virtual space were all virtual. Who would have thought that the prices were even more expensive than in the current world.
“It’s expensive, but it can’t be helped.” Brad, the War God Teacher next to him, shook his head and sighed in slightly awkward Chinese, “There’s only one that sells food and drink in the entire War God Palace, otherwise, you have no place to buy it! However, although the food and wine in virtual space is 100% virtual, the sense of reality is the same as eating and drinking in reality, if you don’t want to eat a full stomach, just for the sake of eating delicious food, it’s also worth it.
Normal a few war gods, casually order some wine and food, it will be millions of Chinese coins.
If one were to say a sumptuous banquet, one would be afraid that it would cost tens of millions of Huaxia coins!
Only the richest group of people on Earth, the “War Gods”, could spend so much, and ordinary rich people would not dare to be so extravagant. For the Gods of War, even if they serve an organization, a yearly salary of 5 billion Chinese coins is very normal. Even if the food here is expensive, it’s still affordable for a God of War. Like Luo Feng, the most powerful amongst the Gods of War, killing a Tyrannosaurus Rex or Ironclad Dragon would cost more than 10 billion dollars. ……
Still care about a little bit of food?
“Taste, it’s indeed very ……” Luo Feng couldn’t help but praise it.
“In terms of deliciousness, the current world can’t compare to virtual space.” Yang Hui laughed.
Luo Feng even asked to the crowd, “I’ve always been curious, how many councillors are there in the war god palace?” As long as they were councillors, they were existences that surpassed the god of war.
A total of 52 councillors and five major speakers.” Next to him, Ji Tao laughed.
“52, so many?” Luo Feng was a bit shocked.
“Many?”
Next to him, the God of War teacher “Vettel” shook his head, “Under the five major speakers, there are only 52 members. Based on the world’s population of 70b, there is less than one in a hundred million on average. Among them, our Ultimate Martial Arts School’s ‘Three Major Pro-Guards’ and ‘Five Major Inspectors’ already accounted for eight!”
“There’s also the Thunder and Lightning Martial Hall, although it’s a bit less than us, there are also 6 councilors under the Thunder God’s command.”
“There are also seven or eight councilors who aren’t willing to be under people and have established mercenaries. There are also five or six that the HR Alliance has made offerings to. These parts alone add up to roughly 26-30 councilors.” Maintaining a mouthful of Chinese, he said shaking his head, “Then there are the five major powers and 25 base cities, divided into the remaining 20 or so councilors! And some of these councilors, lonely and arrogant, living in seclusion, ignoring any organization. Like the five great powers, each powerhouse only gets a few?”
Luo Feng listened in a daze.
Extreme martial arts school, thunder and lightning martial arts school, many mercenaries, HR alliance, this would take up more than half of the councilors.
“Those who are truly loyal to the country and serve the country, such as the Huaxia country, have three or four councillors, which is considered not bad.” Yang Hui smiled, “Of course – the country’s strength should not be underestimated, for example, the inspector of my Extreme Martial Arts Hall has Chinese nationality. Although it nominally belongs to the Extreme Martial Hall, if the country of China asks for help …… it will still step in.”
Luo Feng nodded.
A member of parliament, perhaps by the HR alliance offerings, perhaps as a mercenary, does not mean that at the critical moment, do not help the motherland, after all, is the motherland! So on the surface a powerful country only had three or four councilors under their command. But invisibly a powerful country is perfectly capable of gathering seven or eight councilors.
“Luo Feng, how about we go shopping at the War God Palace mall later? The prices of items inside the War God Palace can be much cheaper than outside.” Yang Hui proposed.
Luo Feng’s heart stirred and he even said, “This, there’s an auction hall, right?”
“Of course there is.”
Next to him, Ji Tao held a wine glass and said excitedly, “The monthly auction, that’s very interesting! More than 90% of the world’s war gods will come that day! You have to know …… that even the biggest auction houses in the world can hardly gather forces from all over the world. Only the War God Palace side can do it!”
Luo Feng nodded, the major base cities, especially between the continents, the oceans were separated, the only transportation was flying airliners, it was troublesome.
The War God Palace …… was the one that brought together all the powerful forces from all over the world.
“The auction here is the most effective. So there are many special items.” Yang Hui explained, “We can also put things to auction, but there are conditions for the auction …… The minimum value of the auction items, is 1 billion Chinese coins, and the high is not capped.”
“Is there water of life?” Luo Feng asked directly.
“For the first seven months of this year, there was water of life for five of them.” Yang Hui introduced, “If I remember well, this month’s auction, there’s also water of life.”
Luo Feng was delighted, then puzzled.
There’s so much water of life? Didn’t the United States of America government want to reflect the scarcity of water of life?
“American government, why are they auctioning off so much water of life?” Luo Feng asked suspiciously.
“Water of life, that’s what seems precious in the outside world.” Yang Hui smiled disdainfully “Later this year, there was a public auction that was facing all martial artists. There is indeed a copy of the Water of Life! But …… there are auctions every month in this War God Palace, worth billions and billions more!”
“Then the United States of America government, if it only sells one copy of the Water of Life a year, it only makes a few dollars?”
“Auctioning in this War God Palace, the outside world doesn’t know. By selling more, wouldn’t it make more money?” Yang Hui laughed.
Luo Feng nodded.
“The first few auctions, roughly how many a share?” Luo Feng inquired.
“The starting reserve price was 10 billion huaxia coins, and the final winning bid, probably around 20 billion huaxia coins a copy.” Yang Hui smiled, “Then the public auction in the outside world might be able to fetch 30 billion. But no one inside the War God Palace is a fool……. If it’s any more expensive, no one will want it.”
Luo Feng was secretly happy in his heart, different social circles were indeed exposed to different things.
The war god palace gathers all the war gods on earth, it is indeed a very big consumer market, such as the “water of life”, the United States of America government wants to rely on it to make a lot of money, as long as it is sold in the war god palace.
“When is the auction this month?” Luo Feng asked.
“There are just a few days left, the auction is on August 15th.” Yang Hui said, “This auction, once a month, is on the 15th of the month.”
Luo Feng nodded.
August 15th, his brother was finally able to stand up, only a few days left.
Inside this War God Palace hall, from time to time, people came along the stairs.
“Which one is Luo Feng?” An old man with white hair walked over to where a group of friends were located, sat down and asked in a low voice.
“In the south, sitting with a few of Yang Hui.” A stout bald man whispered, “See? Those few war gods from Extreme Martial School are talking to that Luo Feng.” Ever since Luo Feng was exposed earlier, all parties had immediately and quietly informed their own people.
“That young man?”
The old man with white hair took a closer look and nodded, “The temperament is extraordinary, look at those eyes …… “Eyes are the window to the soul, an ordinary person with a good “spirit” will have bright eyes. The eyes are the window to the soul. And if the spirit is depressed, the eyes will be cloudy and dim. As a spiritual master ……
When you are hiding, your eyes are as deep as a deep pool that people can’t see through. And when angry, a single look is enough to make a weak martial artist tremble.
That’s why Spiritual Nian Masters usually have a special aura that is caused by being extraordinarily strong mentally.
“Find some time to make good contact with him.” The old man with white hair whispered “In the future, we can also ask him to help us in difficult situations. By the way …… just now when I came, I found out that the Extreme Martial Hall side, asked the government side to help and look up some of Luo Feng’s relatives of his parents. This matter is a good opportunity to reach out to him, let’s contribute as well.”
“Hmm.”
Several other warriors nodded.
“We, Division 11, with Luo Feng’s help, many things will be much simpler in the future.” The old man with white hair revealed a hint of a smile.
Luo Feng was evaluated by the highest decision making level of the Extreme Martial School as the “Invincible God of War”, this news spread extremely fast, far away in Europe, Li Yao and the Venina couple were also the first to be notified by their friends.
Inside the hall of a quiet villa, Li Yao and Mr. and Mrs. Venina were quietly standing there waiting.
“Will that senior meet us?” Venina whispered.
“Definitely.” Li Ya stood there with an icy gaze.
Venina sighed darkly at the sight, ever since the battle of Misty Island, Li Yao had been drinking like crazy and hysterical when he first came back. Later after waking up from drinking, Li Yao even became a whole person caught up in hatred, always thinking about revenge, even the way he looked at people made others feel fear. But …… if they want to kill Luo Feng, they don’t have that kind of ability!
“Two people.”
An old man in a suit upstairs, indifferently said, “The master is up there, waiting for you.”
Li Yao and Venina were both shaken in spirit, then they even followed the stairs to the second floor, the old man in a suit indifferently said, “Follow me.” Directly bringing the duo to a static room, after opening the door to the static room, the old man in suit silently walked away, while Li Yao and Venina both took a deep breath before stepping inside.
The quiet room was empty.
Only a faint sandalwood fragrance permeated the quiet room, an old man with white hair was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, his long hair had already reached his waist, and the whole person was just like a piece of dead wood without the slightest bit of vitality.
“Senior.” Li Yao bowed.
“Councilor Yan.” Venina also bowed.
“Sit down.” A low voice came from the white-haired old man who opened his eyes to look at Li Yao and Venina, this old man’s eyes were cloudy as if he was an old man who was about to die, and there was no trace of a strong man’s aura at all. However, Li Yao and Venina did not dare to slack off at all.
Instead, Li Yao directly knelt on the ground and violently kowtowed, tears streaming down his face.
“Little Vulture, what’s going on, what could make you cry?” The elder was calm.
“Elder.” Li Yao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, “My only son was killed by a young man named Luo Feng, I want to take revenge for my son! I just only hate that I, Li Yao, am incompetent, this Luo Feng is already an ‘invincible war god’ strength, I’m not even a match for him. But …… my son ……”
Li Yao’s fists were clenched, his fingers were pinched into his palms, his entire body was trembling slightly.
“My Li Yao’s parents died early and I don’t have any relatives.”
“I won’t care about any other in the world, but my son ……” Vulture Li Yao’s voice was trembling, he was very ferocious, earning the vulture nickname. That was also as a child, his special experience during the Great Nirvana period made him ferocious and selfish. But deep down he desperately longed for loved ones!
The only son ……
His only obsession! After nurturing it for more than twenty books, that feeling had penetrated deep into the heart.
The more ferocious, selfish, and cold overflowing a person is, if they value a certain relationship, they are even crazier than an emotional person! For, it is their only obsession!
“I implore …… senior to be able to take action to kill this Luo Feng. I am willing to repay senior by being a slave and servant in this life.” Li Yao kowtowed, his head buried on the ground.
The old man silently looked at Li Yao.
Li Yao just buried his head on the ground and waited for the old man’s reply. Next to him, Venina also kowtowed even.
“You and I also have a period of friendship, say …… what is the origin of this Luo Feng.” The old man said in a low voice.
Li Yao still had his head buried on the ground and replied, “Luo Feng, Higher Battle Spirit Peak Spiritual Nihilist, 19 years old, a native of Yangzhou City, Jiangnan Base City. He is now a high-ranking member of the Extreme Martial Hall’s side, and has been appointed as the ‘Supervisory Envoy’ of the Extreme Martial Hall in Jiangnan Base City.”
The old man frowned slightly.
“I can’t help you!” The old man said in a low voice.
Li Yao raised his head sharply, looking at the old man in disbelief……. In his mind, this was the last straw, he and this super strong man, were experiencing the “Great Nirvana Period” together and had a special friendship. Li Yao this person selfish, brutal, but very lonely, never to this senior so begged.
“Because of Hong?” Li Yao couldn’t help but say.
“Yes.” The old man did not hesitate for a second.
Although he was so strong that he had even competed for the Speaker’s seat in the first place, only to fail.
However-…
There was no one on Earth who was a match for Hong, who was a god on high, overlooking all the strongest! Perhaps the only one who had a smaller gap with Hong was the Second Speaker, Thor. The others, such as the third, fourth, and fifth chairs, did not even have the courage to make a move in front of Hong.
Not to mention him, “Yan Hai”, although he had a special friendship with Li Yao, he would not go so far as to offend Hong.
Nineteen years old invincible God of War, fools can guess the importance of “Hong” to him.
Li Yao clenched his fists and snorted, his knuckles were white, and blood flowed out from his palms as he stared at the old man in agony. The old man saw the situation …… seemed to see the crazy teenager in the Great Nirvana period back then, and sighed in his heart.
“You want to kill Luo Feng at the risk of death?” The old man said in a low voice.
“Yes.” Li Yao’s voice was resolute.
“Then break through the War God and become an existence beyond the War God.” The old man said indifferently, “That way, you will have a chance to kill him. Of course …… you will have to face the wrath of ‘Hong’, Hong may value talent and let you live. But it is also possible …… that he will kill you in a fit of rage.”
Li Yao’s gaze was firm, “Please guide me, senior.”
“This is my cultivation miscellany, there is my method of cultivation, and also …… my experience of breakthrough.” The elder took out a handwritten book from his bosom, “I hope it can help you.” With that, he threw it over.
Li Yao reached out and took it.
“Remember ……”
“Breakthrough and become an existence beyond the War God. The key is ‘spirit’ and ‘will’.” The old man closed his eyes, “You guys go!”
Li Yao and Venina both kowtowed in gratitude and then left.
