Chapter 336 – I Believe It Will Definitely Be Interesting

The next day, the incident of the Zhang Family’s young master being attacked successfully made it to the official trending list, becoming known to everyone with a terminal.

Especially when the citizens of Tianfeng City learned that the treasure worth over a million Contribution Points in Zhang Chen’s possession had vanished, some felt regret, while others took pleasure in his misfortune.

“Tsk, tsk, a treasure worth over a million Contribution Points, gone just like that.”

“The Zhang Family may be wealthy and influential, but Contribution Points aren’t like money that can be accumulated as numbers. The larger the family, the more they need to spend their Contribution Points, turning them into resources to develop effectively.”

“Even if losing over a million Contribution Points doesn’t hurt the Zhang Family deeply, having it disappear like this would surely make them too angry to eat, right?”

“Who knows who’s bold enough to dare rob the Zhang Family?”

“Could it be the Underground Professionals?”

“It’s definitely the kind of thing those lawless elements would do.”

All the Professionals were eagerly discussing the matter, making it almost more talked-about than the Red Netherstone Set, which had sold for 1,500,000 Contribution Points.

This also had some impact on “Summer Chasing Smoke.” The original buzz shifted, causing people’s attention to drift away from them. When Xu Xiayan learned of this, she found it both amusing and exasperating.

The Professional Center quickly responded to the incident, working closely with the Zhang Family to conduct a meticulous investigation, aiming to apprehend the Attacker as soon as possible.

Using supernatural abilities for outright robbery is strictly forbidden in a Holy Land for Professionals like Tianfeng City. Those who violate this face not only being wanted but, more seriously, being exiled as Underground Professionals.

If such acts weren’t prohibited, Tianfeng City could descend into chaos with hundreds of Professionals causing trouble.

Humanity’s enemies should be the Phantom Demons and the invasions from the Spirit Demon Abyss, not infighting and mutual depletion. For this reason, every Base City has clear laws and regulations restricting Professionals, preventing them from using their supernatural powers recklessly and causing chaos for humanity, the community, and the world.

Given this, official organizations like the Professional Center in Tianfeng City naturally don’t slack off when it comes to such severe incidents involving supernatural abilities. They launched an investigation immediately, with officials visiting forces like the Wanbao Auction House, the Zhang Family, and the Wang Family. Even those who attended the auction the previous day were investigated, much to many people’s distress.

In contrast, Su Ming, the mastermind behind it all, was leisurely sleeping in at home, completely detached from the outside world as if it had nothing to do with him, living in seclusion.

Fortunately, Chi Qian and the others were recently focused on improving themselves and striving for a Breakthrough, paying little attention to such news. Otherwise, with Feng Qing’er’s personality of enjoying drama and stirring up trouble, she would likely have been making a racket in the villa with the latest updates.

However, this state of affairs didn’t last long.

On this very day, Chi Qian and the others emerged from their “seclusion” one after another.

……

Villa, Underground Training Ground.When Su Ming noticed the commotion of Chi Qian and the others “coming out of seclusion” and emerged from his room to arrive here, what he saw was a scene of the girls “raising a ruckus.”

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”…

In front of the swimming pool, Mu Yan stood wielding a Thorned Whip, brandishing it with the fluidity of a Flood Dragon turning over, flexibly lashing and whipping it in the water. This caused the swimming pool to explode with splashes as if being shelled by artillery, creating a spectacularly grand scene.

“Miling! Miling miling!”

Little Hai’er was chirping repeatedly in mid-air, her puffed-up expression seeming to protest as she waved her arms and stamped her feet, as if condemning Mu Yan for destroying her territory.

“Heiya!”

Feng Qing’er, meanwhile, was spinning a pair of reverse-curve sabers in the corner, freely executing upward sweeps, downward chops, leftward hacks, and rightward slashes. Her hand speed and technical agility far surpassed her previous level.

As for Chi Qian, her movements were the most subdued. She simply stood quietly to the side without even holding a weapon, yet she exuded an extraordinary presence and pressure. Her vitality was so robust that even Little Hai’er swam two circles around her, her small face full of astonishment.

Even Tong Xinyao stood before several moving targets, with circular arrays floating around her wrists. The moving targets in front of her were burned to ashes one after another, cleanly and efficiently destroyed.

The group of girls carried on like this in the Underground Training Ground, some excited, some calm, testing their current strength.

Until Su Ming’s voice rang out.

“It seems your strength has greatly improved.”

As Su Ming’s voice echoed through the Underground Training Ground, the girls all stopped their actions.

“Commander!”

“Commander Brother!”

“Commander!”

Some called out, some cheered, but without exception, they all came before Su Ming.

Especially Feng Qing’er, who directly threw herself at Su Ming.

“Did you see? Did you see? I’ve become much stronger than before, right?”

Feng Qing’er grabbed Su Ming’s clothes, bouncing up and down while beaming with joy, shaking Su Ming until he felt dizzy.

Chi Qian and Mu Yan weren’t as unrestrained as Feng Qing’er, merely staring at Su Ming with dazzling brilliance in their eyes.

Tong Xinyao’s gaze at Su Ming was filled with even more gratitude and admiration.

At this moment, Tong Xinyao had already consumed numerous treasures obtained by Su Ming after opening many packages, all used to enhance Spirit Power.

Therefore, Tong Xinyao’s Spirit Power and spiritual nature were now much stronger than before.

Previously, although Tong Xinyao was a Three-Star Sorcerer, she hadn’t reached the limit of a lower-tier Professional.

But now, she had truly reached that point, touching the limit of a lower-tier Professional and arriving at the Peak of a Three-Star Sorcerer.

She clearly understood who she had to thank for reaching this level.

Although she didn’t know what those things Su Ming had given her were, aside from Su Ming, Tong Xinyao had never seen such methods from anyone else.

It was impossible for this young girl Tong Xinyao not to admire and feel grateful toward Su Ming.

Su Ming smiled at her, then turned his gaze to the female Hunters.

“Not bad.”

Su Ming’s eyes swept over the group of girls, first offering praise before settling on Feng Qing’er, who was about to throw herself into his arms.

“You haven’t advanced in rank, have you? Why are you so happy?”Su Ming glanced at Feng Qing’er and immediately discerned her current strength, speaking with a hint of exasperation.

“Although I haven’t advanced, I’ve already reached the Four-Star Peak, catching up to Sister Mu Yan’s previous level. I could break through at any moment, you know?”

Feng Qing’er’s smile instantly twisted into anger at Su Ming’s retort, and she began protesting indignantly.

During this period, thanks to the Red Vein Stones provided by Su Ming, the young women had all experienced significant improvements in their bloodline concentration, pushing their strength to new heights.

Feng Qing’er, who had originally been only in the upper half of Four-Star, had now reached Four-Star Peak, truly catching up to Mu Yan’s previous level—just one step away from a breakthrough.

With Feng Qing’er’s progress so evident, her two elder sisters who were already on the brink of advancement naturally took that crucial step without any surprise.

“Thank you for your guidance, Commander.”

Mu Yan offered Su Ming a polite bow.

This icy beauty, who had previously been at Four-Star Peak, had now advanced to Five-Star, becoming a genuine Five-Star Hunter.

“Not bad. Fortunately, I didn’t fail the mission.”

Chi Qian rarely revealed a smile.

This legendary woman who had once been disfigured and lost a hand now, after having all her injuries healed, blossomed like a lotus when she smiled—stunningly beautiful.

Originally a peerless beauty comparable to Xu Qianqian, An Zijin, and Yun Langyue, Chi Qian’s rare, guileless smile truly gave people a refreshing feeling.

Naturally, this legendary woman’s current strength was enough to cause a sensation in Tianfeng City.

Chi Qian, who had been at Five-Star Peak like Mu Yan, successfully took that step forward.

Six-Star!

Chi Qian was now a genuine Six-Star Hunter!

“Congratulations.”

Su Ming also smiled with shared pride.

The improvements of these women were naturally excellent news for him as their Commander.

Especially Chi Qian, who had signed a lifelong loyalty contract with Su Ming—she was now his top enforcer, second only to Little Hai’er, and a truly trusted confidante for the future.

This confidante had now reached Six-Star, just one rank away from the ultimate Seven-Star. Even in a Professional’s holy land like Tianfeng City, she ranked among the top-tier experts—enough to truly shake the entire city.

“A thirty-three-year-old Six-Star Professional…”

Su Ming clicked his tongue in admiration.

Xu Xiayan had advanced to Six-Star Professional at thirty years old.

She was hailed as Tianfeng City’s youngest Six-Star Professional—the heaven-blessed girl most likely to advance to Seven-Star.

Wang Di reached Six-Star at thirty-five. As the only member of the Wang Family to advance to Six-Star before forty, he was already designated as the family’s next successor—their future pinnacle.

While Chi Qian might not match Xu Xiayan, she undoubtedly surpassed talents like Wang Di.

What was even more remarkable was that she had always struggled upward through her own efforts, starting from nothing without any support from major powers, climbing to this position entirely by herself.

For someone like her to become a Six-Star Professional at thirty-three—if this news spread, how could Tianfeng City not be shaken?Without receiving support from any organization, nor coming from a major Family, and lacking any innate superior Bloodline, yet she became a Six-Star Professional even earlier than someone like Wang Di?

By then, no one would doubt that she had an extremely high likelihood of advancing to Seven-Star.

A Seven-Star Professional who rose powerfully from the very bottom as an ordinary person, ultimately achieving greatness!

This, perhaps, is what a true legend really is!

“You’ll probably become the most talked-about topic in Tianfeng City again soon, Chi Qian.”

Su Ming said these words with a laugh.

“If the Commander wished, you could achieve such a thing at any time.”

Chi Qian shook her head calmly, showing no trace of arrogance or impatience.

Because she knew that the man before her was the most outrageous existence of all.

At the very least, she didn’t believe that even after her promotion, she could withstand a single punch from Su Ming.

That punch that even repelled the Poisonous Insect Queen—if she encountered it now, she would meet only one outcome.

Given that, what was there to be arrogant or impatient about?

Su Ming didn’t pay attention to Chi Qian’s remarks, instead mischievously saying:

“Since you’ve all improved, next, I’ll introduce someone for you to meet.”

Su Ming was already looking forward to that grand lady’s expression.

He believed it would definitely be quite interesting, right?

Thinking this, Su Ming cheerfully took out his Terminal.
