Chapter 89: Have I become the puppet master? Stop flattering (seeking subscription, monthly pass, and support)_1



Upon hearing this, Pei Jinye sought advice, “Do you have any suggestions?”

Principal Wang replied with a light laugh, “Well, I would of course recommend that you join the Federation’s [Diamond League].”

Pei Jinye suddenly realized.

He just remembered that there is an alliance relationship between the top martial arts universities in the Federation, collectively known as the [Diamond League], similar to the Ivy League in a previous life.

Li Xiaoyin’s martial arts university, Dragon City, is one of them.

After getting in the car, Principal Wang looked over at Pei Jinye sitting beside him with another warm smile, “Of course, setting aside the factor of school honor, I personally would also suggest you join the [Diamond League]. As the top martial alliance of the Federation, the cultivation resources they hold are beyond your imagination. Over these years, all the elites that our Second Middle School has sent there have had bright futures ahead of them, whether going off to local government positions, entering the Military Department, or taking on some middle to upper management roles in various consortia…”

Principal Wang observed Pei Jinye’s expression, “Talking about this may seem too distant, but let’s just take Vitality supplements as an example. Da Peng City is just too small after all. I don’t know if you’ve heard about the situation with the Blood-red Carps. Our Da Peng City tried for thirty years without success, but this year we finally did it… But did you know, the Blood-red Carp is nothing more than a common fish in the [Diamond League]…”

Pei Jinye looked over in surprise.

Principal Wang sighed lightly, “There’s nothing we can do about the limitations of being a smaller place. Indeed, the numbers admitted to the Diamond League from big cities are something our smaller places just can’t compete with… from cultivation materials to martial techniques, as well as the extension of the Transcendent Body System, big city research is always leading the way.”

“Extension of the Transcendent Body System?” Pei Jinye was surprised by the term.

Principal Wang nodded, “Yes, as far as I know, the concept of transcendent progression has already become a hot topic in first-tier cities. For example, someone who has awakened an instrument transcendent, like a sword, when they go to a top martial school, they’d have the chance to come into contact with a second-tier system… On the foundation of their existing transcendence, they choose a more powerful specialized direction. Swordsmen can progress to become great Sword Masters, and then third-tier Storm Swordsmen…”

Pei Jinye pondered thoughtfully.

He vaguely remembered snippets of this.

However, transcendent progression wasn’t as simple as he had imagined.

“It must be very dangerous, right? Otherwise, it wouldn’t be limited to big cities, instead of being widespread throughout the Federation…”

Principal Wang nodded, “Indeed, the extension of the transcendent progression system has only begun to rise in recent years, and so far, there are only a few that have formed a stable system. Your Psychic Class… if I remember correctly, has already developed a third-tier system.”

Pei Jinye was pleasantly surprised, “Already third-tier? Which school?”

“Nandu Martial University, our Central State’s homegrown martial arts university.”

As they spoke, the sedan had already left the Second Middle School gates.

The Third Office of the Education Department.

Principal Wang introduced Pei Jinye with a smile, “This is the person I mentioned to you on the way here, the great hero who once stormed into Yanwang Mountain by himself to rescue hostages, Chu Wuxiu.”

The middle-aged man with dark skin waved his hand and said, “Old squad leader, let’s not dredge up the past. It’s all history now.”

He looked at Pei Jinye and smiled appreciatively, “I’d been asking our Principal Wang about the promising youngster he was hiding. He didn’t say. Today I finally got to see him. You are the first one from Second Middle School to apply for the elite examination in three years. Are you scared?”

Pei Jinye shook his head, “I’m looking forward to it and nervous, but afraid, that’s hardly the case.”

Hearing this, Chu Wuxiu looked at him in surprise and said to Principal Wang, “He’s got some guts. Not bad.”

Principal Wang laughed cheerfully, “Of course, he’s a fine seedling I personally spotted. I’m bringing him here now in hopes that you could keep an eye on him during the process. You know I wouldn’t ask you to break the rules, but if there’s anything you can do to give him a helping hand, do it. He’s a good seedling of our Second Middle School.”

Chu Wuxiu nodded, his voice grave, “Old squad leader, rest assured.”

“Let’s test his blood energy again.”

Chu Wuxiu looked helplessly at Principal Wang, “Old squad leader, don’t tell me the real purpose of your visit isn’t for the sake of drinking, is it?”

“How could that be possible! The main reason was to see you, and the second was to have his Blood energy tested. Don’t your devices need to be used or they’ll rust?”

“Ding!”

The screen displayed a prompt: [Vitality Value: 7.8 cards]

Principal Wang was somewhat surprised, “Almost reaching 8 cards? Little Pei, your recent cultivation seems to be quite effective.”

Pei Jinye just smiled.

It turned out this device couldn’t test the upper limit either.

He still had four Blood-red Carps at home, which would allow him to increase further and recover to his peak of 15 cards.

Director Chu nodded and said, “For his age, cultivating to this level of Vitality Value is indeed very good. To my knowledge, the Vitality Values of those who ranked in the top three in elite assessments in past years also ranged from 13 to 18 cards.”

Principal Wang said optimistically, “Those are little monsters trained by big clans. Not to mention, 7.8 cards would already be considered top-notch in Da Peng City.”

Director Chu didn’t deny it and looked at Pei Jinye, saying, “The content of the assessment hasn’t been announced yet. An examiner from the Federation Headquarters will declare it on the spot. You just need to remain calm and give your 100%, and that will be enough.”

“Understood, thank you Director Chu for the reminder.”

Hearing his words, Director Chu smiled and said, “No need to be so formal, just call me Uncle Chu.”

Principal Wang looked at Pei Jinye and nodded in indication.

Pei Jinye called out to Director Chu, “Yes, Uncle Chu.”

Director Chu laughed heartily, “Good, is your admission ticket all set?

Pei Jinye nodded, “Everything’s been prepared.”

After seeing the Vitality Value, Director Chu began to see Pei Jinye as a closer junior.

If Pei Jinye had shown a poorer level, he definitely wouldn’t have been so enthusiastic, but although 7.8 cards couldn’t compete with the freaks from the big families, it was enough to pass the elite assessment.

With this score, it’s like having a ticket to a higher level. The future for this young man surnamed Pei is limitless.

Making an early bet and forming a good connection doesn’t mean a loss for Director Chu.

Principal Wang also cheerfully said, “It’s all arranged. Come to school the day after tomorrow, and I will personally take you there.”

Director Chu nodded, “That’s good. There will definitely be a lot of people paying attention on that day, both openly and secretly, especially since the Old Gods Association has been very arrogant lately. The more secrecy you can maintain, the better. But it should be sorted out soon.”

Principal Wang said in surprise, “Is something big going to happen above?”

Director Chu smiled and said, “There are no outsiders here, but don’t you guys let it slip.”

Pei Jinye nodded “obediently.”

Director Chu lowered his voice, “Just this morning I went to a meeting. The Investigation Team and the Night Patrol Department formed a special action team, commanded by a member from the Judgement Place…. It’s a matter of the next few days, they are preparing to make a big move.”

Pei Jinye listened without any change in expression.

Principal Wang laughed and said, “It would be great to get rid of them. Because of what happened a while back, many families are keeping their young seeds under tight watch, afraid of catching the eye of the Old Gods Association. But members from the Judgement Place? When did this happen?”

Director Chu shook his head, “I heard they’ve been here for a while.”

Principal Wang said with a mix of shock and uncertainty, “Has the situation in Da Peng City gotten this severe? Even the Judgement Place has been alerted?”

Chu Wuxiu sighed, “In this period alone, there have been no fewer than five explosion incidents. I’ve seen that the city hall guy has dark circles under his eyes; if this can’t be resolved, I reckon his position is on the line too. But the Old Gods Association is indeed tenacious. I’ve heard they’ve recruited new members, someone called the Demon King….”

“Demon King? Such an arrogant name?” exclaimed Principal Wang, taken aback.

Pei Jinye silently hung his head.

Is it really that arrogant?

No, right… It’s all nonsense you guys made up.

Chu Wuxiu hesitated, “As for information on him, even the Investigation Team doesn’t have much…. It’s said that basically, anyone who has crossed hands with him ends up dead….”

“Hiss.” Old Wang cooperatively sucked in a breath of cold air.

Pei Jinye was internally speechless.

Can the Federation’s intelligence departments not jinx me???

After all, I’ve hardly ever crossed hands with you guys…

Upon leaving the Education Department.

Principal Wang looked deeply worried, “Little Pei, is the place you’re staying at safe?”

“It’s safe, rest assured, Principal Wang. With the net of heaven cast wide, I don’t believe they dare to be so reckless!” Pei Jinye asserted with seriousness.

Principal Wang sighed, “You see, even Old Chu said, this Demon King is elusive as a dragon’s head but never its tail, very frightening. You must be careful.”

Pei Jinye: “Mhm, I’ll definitely be careful.”

Principal Wang: “I hope by the time you come back, everything will have settled down.”

Upon returning to his residence, two Blood-red Carps were consumed, and his Vitality surged rapidly.

Especially after Pei Jinye activated “Twelve Lotuses”, he almost completely Devoured the Vitality contained within the Blood-red Carps.

[Vitality Value +6 cards!]

Refreshing!

Pei Jinye exhaled deeply.

He glanced at his attribute panel.

[Vitality Value]: 13.8-13.8;

[Stamina]: 13-14.5;

[Psychic Power]: 11.8-11.8;

“If these had been the results during the test just now, I bet Old Wang would already be fantasizing about me taking one of the top three positions…”

He shook his head and chuckled lightly.

There he sat on the sofa, crossed-legged, pondering.

“Director Chu means that Xu Tian is joining forces with Da Peng City’s combat forces, preparing to encircle and suppress the Old Gods Association… That also means I will encounter danger in the coming days too.”

“No good, I have to maintain a distance from them during this time!”

As he was thinking.

“Buzz buzz!”

The secret phone suddenly vibrated.

Black Shark: [Demon King bro, I’m short on hands here…]

Pei Jinye silently turned off the phone.

An ugly refusal, scram!

Inside the secret room.

Black Shark’s brows furrowed slightly.

“How is it, did the Demon King agree?” Heavenly Calculation asked curiously.

Black Shark shook his head, “He hasn’t replied yet, might be busy.”

Heavenly Calculation grew somewhat anxious, “What do we do then? If we miss this opportunity, we won’t know how long it will be before we get another one… Shadow Bow is injured now, Tai Yuan’s Alloy Armor hasn’t been upgraded yet, the Demon King’s Hypnosis, along with his own Martial Arts Cultivation, would be a great help to us.”

Black Shark shook his head, “Let’s wait, ask Shadow Bow to come over.”

“Alright.”

At a secret research institute of Heaven God.

“Huan Ling betrayed, Zhao Li disappeared… can someone tell me what exactly is happening?” Mr. Sang’s face was solemn, his usual calm marred by an unusual hint of anger.

Before him, Lin Ye was also somewhat baffled, “Wasn’t it the files that were stolen from us but from that Wei family kid? Could it be an enemy they provoked?”

Mr. Sang spoke sharply, “The problem now is not who offended which power, but that Zhao Li took action, and he too has lost trace! Do you still not realize the seriousness of the problem?”

Lin Ye said with a heavy voice, “I’ll go find him!”

Mr. Sang looked at him, “Another group has appeared in Da Peng City, and behind this force might very likely be Huan Ling’s new master… Never mind, don’t bother looking for him, it wastes time. How’s the cleanup for the documents going?”

Lin Ye immediately replied, “I’ve dealt with those in the know, and for now, we’ve suspended contact with the Wei family. Even if the files are exposed now, we can explain it as a framing attempt by a competitor. However, the opening of the new mine might have to be delayed. I’m very concerned that the Federation will discover it during this period…”

“The Federation is busy with elite assessments recently and doesn’t have the time to care about these things. After the 3rd, we’ll quickly cover up the new mine issue.”

“Understood… By the way, Mr. Sang, someone from city hall came over this morning, saying they’re planning a secret operation tonight. The bait has been set, just waiting for the Old Gods Association’s fish to take the hook.”

“Ensure confidentiality.”

“Yes!”
