Chapter 488 Honey Trap!
On the way, Qin Fengqing began his performance. When passing several seventh-rank officials, he deliberately spat, whether he was spitting or something else, the sarcasm was simply overwhelming.
The Grandmasters in front didn't bother with him. As long as no one was killed, it was fine. It was good to teach the younger generation of Zhenxing City a lesson. As long as they didn't die, they could save them.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Qin Fengqing became even more arrogant. He was there to empty Zhenxing City, muttering to himself, "Don't underestimate me just because I'm a seventh-rank cultivator. That's because my cultivation level was built up with resources. Otherwise, I wouldn't have improved so quickly. My current combat strength is probably only at the high end of the sixth rank. It's a pity that no one wants to challenge me. I want to improve my practical combat experience. And I'm not short of money. I can use life essence as a wager, just to improve my combat ability."
After saying that, Qin Fengqing gave Jiang Chao a fierce look.
Wang Jinyang, standing nearby, was speechless. This was just a direct attempt to lure people in; would anyone really be fooled?
The grandmasters leading the way all looked at him strangely and stopped acting. "You're just making things up, aren't you? Where did you, a student from a martial arts university, get the resources to use and improve indefinitely? You don't even know how to fight in real combat. I'm afraid there aren't many people here who are better at real combat than you."
Seeing Qin Fengqing's expression, Jiang Chao knew what he wanted him to do. He glanced at the Jiang family head walking at the front, and thinking about the current situation at Magic Martial Arts University, he gritted his teeth and said, "Old Qin, you're asking for death. The geniuses in our city have all learned their fighting skills from Grandmasters. If you go up there, you'll definitely get beaten to death."
"Hmph, so what if a Grandmaster gave me some pointers? I'm a seventh-rank now, no one of my own rank can kill me in one go. As for life essence and all that, that's no problem. I'm here to improve my combat experience. Otherwise, why would I come to Zhenxing City? I'm here because I'm interested in your combat experience and want to steal a few moves."
"You can't learn that. Part of our supreme combat techniques can only be taught by grandmasters. You can't learn it by fighting against us."
"That's alright, I'll just consider my life essence as tuition."
"Do you truly possess the essence of life?"
"We, the Magic Martial Arts Academy, conquered the Demon Capital's underground caves. I don't have tons of it, but I do have dozens of kilograms of life essence. However, you guys definitely need to offer something in return, otherwise it won't sound good. It'll seem like I, Qin Fengqing, paid to get beaten up."
"Of course, let's go have a spar!"
"No, do you have anything to bet on?"
"I have them. These boots of mine are divine weapons; using them as a prize is perfectly fine."
That's not enough.
"I still have some at home, I'll get it in a bit. I'm short of Life Essence, and with my guidance, you can secretly rejoice."
"real?"
"Of course, who wouldn't want free life essence?"
The two of them continued their conversation in this back-and-forth, deliberately lowering their voices as if they were being discreet. However, everyone present was a martial artist of at least the sixth rank, so how could they not hear what they were saying?
The people walking at the front all looked at Jiang Yuanhua. After all, that little fat boy was your grandson. How could your grandson collude with outsiders to cheat the people of Zhenxing City?
Jiang Yuanhua's face was also pale, after all, this grandson really didn't bring him any honor. He even wondered if the baby had been switched at birth. Was that really his grandson?
You can guard against it day and night, but it's hard to guard against a thief within your own family!
Fang Ping, standing nearby, could hardly contain his laughter. This chubby boy was truly courageous, considering his grandfather was walking ahead of him, yet he was here discussing with Qin Fengqing how to trick Zhenxing City. As for whether their plan would succeed?
Fang Ping glanced at the group of people standing beside him. They were all eager to make their move. After all, even Jiang Chao dared to go for it, so what did they have to be afraid of? This was free life essence, how could they not take it? Besides, Jiang Chao himself had already stepped in, how could it be fake? Fang Ping could only say that they were still too young and didn't know that there was such a thing as a honey trap. It would be good for them to teach these people a lesson.
The grandmasters at the front also noticed the looks in the eyes of the younger generation and knew they had been fooled. Seeing their juniors getting restless, they couldn't help but twitch their lips. It seemed that they needed to improve the psychological education of the younger generation in Zhenxing City, otherwise they might be swindled out of everything. After all, it was such a simple scam, and they believed it. The grandmasters felt ashamed and really didn't want to admit that these people were their descendants.
Meanwhile, as Fang Ping and his group ventured deeper, Zhang Tao's mental strength became insufficient to penetrate further. After all, Zhenxing City was set up by thirteen supreme experts working together, and he could only spy from the outside. "They've gone in. That chubby kid from the Jiang family is indeed quite interesting."
Zhang Tao smiled and said to Li Zhen, and Li Zhen naturally saw the image transmitted by Zhang Tao's mental energy.
"Your strength? You've broken through? Above the pinnacle?"
Li Zhen didn't pay attention to that; he was focused on Zhang Tao's strength. After all, they were thousands of kilometers away from Zhenxing City in Kyoto, and he could even glimpse part of the mental barrier in Zhenxing City.
"Not yet. Lu Hao provided the brain core location method before. After locating the brain core, my mental strength has been increasing. However, I haven't broken through to the peak. At most, I'm only slightly stronger than you guys in terms of mental strength."
Zhang Tao said calmly, after all, he didn't know what was above the pinnacle, so he didn't count as breaking through. He wasn't lying.
"Your mental strength is truly remarkable; it's probably even stronger than that of the seniors in Zhenxing City."
Li Zhen praised, "What's your opinion on the Yang family's affairs?"
Zhang Tao didn't continue talking about this, after all, his current strength had long surpassed those of his predecessors, but he just didn't want to reveal it.
"The Yang family—they probably just want some resources or something. After all, Yang He's situation was their own doing, and now that Lu Hao has reached the pinnacle, they probably wouldn't be foolish enough to bring it up again. At most, they probably just want to gain some sympathy."
Li Zhen thought for a moment, then said.
"The one from Zhenxing City who made the move?"
"I really don't know what the elders are planning. After all, I haven't been back for a long time. I guess it's to give those younger generation a good talking-to. You know they've always had it easy. It's a good thing to have troublemakers like Fang Ping go and give them a good talking-to."
Li Zhen explained.
"Tsk, do you even believe that yourself? You're probably testing Fang Ping and the others. But Fang Ping and the others aren't the type to suffer a loss easily. Zhenxing City might not be able to cover it up this time. After all, Qin Fengqing confidently said before that he had a trump card given to him by Lu Hao."
"Hiss—I forgot about that. No, I have to go check it out, otherwise I'm afraid those guys might really cause some big trouble."
Zhang Tao didn't stop him anymore, after all, given the current situation, it would be good for him to go.
