Chapter 942 - 358: Drug Lord Country or Curry Country, Which Will You Choose?_2
Some people choose to take the illegal route.
They move from the Drug Lord Country to Lijian Country.
Marching a thousand miles alone, using a pathway to get through.
A lot of famous incidents occurred along the way.
The most famous and powerful one is the story of Brother Puff.
Unwilling to stay in Great Xia, he took the pathway from the Drug Lord Country to Lijian Country.
The hardships along the way were unimaginable; yet he enjoyed himself, even when a few Grizzlies tried to forcibly take him away, half-turn him into a puff, he still stubbornly pretended to be cheerful.
These messages astounded Leng Bing, worsening his already negative impression of the Drug Lord Country.
The Drug Lord Country is a criminal’s paradise, where even high officials succumb, and it has become a haven for drug lords.
If Zhang Beixing asked their squad to go to such a place, that would be like throwing sheep to the wolves.
Leng Bing’s resolute eyes slightly shifted, though he dared not show his dissatisfaction.
"Seriously, Minister, even if you don’t want us to go abroad, you don’t have to make things this difficult."
To Leng Bing, it just seemed like Zhang Beixing was deliberately making things hard for him.
Bringing a few pampered beauties to the Drug Lord Country is no different than taking them to Curry Country.
If I were Transcendent, or if they were Grandmasters, I’d take on the task.
Unfortunately, we are not.
Given their current strength, going to the Drug Lord Country where almost everyone carries a gun is extremely dangerous.
Seeing Leng Bing’s expression change, Zhang Beixing knew he had achieved his goal.
So he stood up, walked to Leng Bing, and said,
"You, you’re just too impatient."
"You were severely injured in Wu Country, almost losing your life. Now that you’re back, take a proper rest. Don’t rush to prove yourself, okay?"
Zhang Beixing looked at him sincerely, "You’re now the second Great Grandmaster in the world; your future is boundless."
"Don’t worry about whether your strength came from external forces. As long as you reinforce your strength and solidify your foundation, you can definitely progress further!"
Zhang Beixing sighed.
People today are just too hasty.
Really young.
I don’t even know what they’re in such a rush for.
He rushes, accelerates his power growth, because he has a cheat code.
I have a cheat code, so I’m awesome; do you have a cheat code?"
Even someone with a cheat code like me works hard; what’s your reason not to put in the effort?"
After these thoughts hovered in Zhang Beixing’s mind, he still said to Leng Bing,
"I didn’t have it as easy as you on the path to becoming a Great Grandmaster. I wandered the land with my disciple, Chen Rourou, challenging martial arts schools one by one."
"By stealthily learning and defeating them one by one, I gained mastery, and eventually integrated everything to create my own cultivation technique."
"You didn’t take this path, you don’t have a system with numerous Kung Fu, so now it feels like you’re standing on a cloud with nothing beneath your feet, any moment you might fall."
"It would be best if you used this time to enhance your strength, solidify your foundation; that’s your real duty, not rushing out immediately."
"Right now, the potion indeed hasn’t shown any side effects, but that’s because after becoming a Great Grandmaster, you haven’t engaged in real combat, and generally, there’s no one who can spar with you."
"You can’t beat me, and others can’t beat you; there isn’t even anyone to spar with you. If Xu Feng were here, he could practice with you for sure."
"Do you believe, never mind me, even Xu Feng, even if he’s just a Half-Step Grandmaster, if you really had a match with him, you might not be able to defeat him."
Zhang Beixing rarely says so much at once.
He really valued Leng Bing.
Not to mention, just for that forty percent funding, he had to value him.
Even though Zhang Delin didn’t increase the funding just for Leng Bing.
But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a factor.
Seeing Leng Bing’s face turn shades, Zhang Beixing knew the lad was listening.
"You’re in luck now, instantly becoming a Great Grandmaster, and I have my fully developed cultivation technique ready for you to learn."
"So many people abroad learned the fake one and made rapid progress, their strength grew insanely fast."
"Now that you’ve become a Great Grandmaster, learning backwards, wouldn’t you improve even faster?"
Zhang Beixing’s cultivation technique, even if genuine, at most can be honed to the Great Grandmaster level. That’s quite something.
Wanting to go further isn’t just about cultivation techniques; it involves other factors.
Zhang Beixing, when he reached his peak, could not advance further and took netizens’ advice to challenge Oizaki’s Eight Challenges.
He even took it upon himself to enhance Oizaki’s Eight Challenges at the time.
That’s how he achieved Transcendent strength in one go!
If Leng Bing wants to take this path, wants to become Transcendent, Oizaki’s Eight Challenges is absolutely indispensable.
Even without Oizaki’s Eight Challenges, you’d need to take a similar path, challenging your limits, only then could becoming Transcendent be possible.
Now there’s a successful example like Zhang Beixing to follow.
Everyone can cross the river by feeling the stones under him.
Under Zhang Beixing’s persuasion, Leng Bing finally temporarily dropped the idea of taking the team out.
"Leng Bing, are you thinking that since you’re the captain, you could insist on taking them abroad for training, everyone would agree?"
"If you think that way, you’re gravely mistaken and absolutely cannot think like that."
"This isn’t the Military Force, where obeying orders is a duty. The Ninth Bureau, though having its limits and regulations, is more relaxed."
"Everyone still has the right to refuse if it directly means going to their deaths."
Zhang Beixing said with a smile, "Alright, that’s all. Go back and talk to your team well."
"The next time you come to me wanting to go out, I’ll at least need to see that your foundation is more solid."
"I also need to see a petition signed by all your team members."
"If either of these two conditions isn’t met, I absolutely won’t agree to your team going out."
Feeling exhausted from talking, Zhang Beixing poured himself a pot of tea, took a small sip, and glanced at Leng Bing.
"What’s the matter? Planning to sit with me a while longer? Shall I make you a pot of tea as well?"
"No, no, no."
Possibly due to a slow reaction time, Leng Bing hurriedly shook his head, refusing.
If Zhang Beixing were really to make tea, what if he became petty and remembered this matter?
Better not gamble on someone’s pettiness, better leave now.
Leng Bing swiftly took off.
Watching his retreating back, when the door shut, Zhang Beixing shook his head, a touch of helplessness in his voice.
"A stubborn mule."
Zhang Beixing opened the chat with Zhang Delin, sent a long voice message, using up the full 60 seconds, summarizing what had just transpired.
Quickly, a message came back from Zhang Delin.
"You did really well!"
"He’s just started, needs to rest and recover in the country for a while; why run outside without healing completely, thinking the outside is all safe? Just because he’s a Great Grandmaster doesn’t mean he can act superior now?"
After chatting casually with his elder, Zhang Beixing hung up the call.
"Captain Leng, it’s best if you stay in the country for a few more months and wait until I get back."
