World's Best Martial Artist - Chapter 432: Going Down To The Catacombs Again

In February, MCMAU entered the era of frantic cultivation throughout the whole school.

The supply of pills was no longer just in ones or twos, but rather shipped out in boxes!

The production line in MCMAU School worked overtime to get the work done.

This time, MCMAU cooperated with several universities, and the other party could exchange raw materials with MCMAU for credits and pills.

The two major companies had yet to make any comments.

At this moment, there were only a few universities that cooperated with MCMAU. Although CCMAU also participated, the cooperation of CCMAU was limited and not carried out on a large scale.

Several universities were self-sufficient with their raw materials but this would not affect the entire operation of the companies.

However, the two major companies were closely monitoring MCMAU. If MCMAU had the audacity to acquire their raw materials from outside, the two companies would not leave the matter at that.

This time, MCMAU had made a big deal. The matter of the evil sect was information that could be used against them… Zhao Yu was confirmed to be a member of the evil sect.

In this kind of situation, the two major companies had paid a considerable price and were unwilling to let the mess continue.

During this period, all the grudges and resentment were settled after the other party paid 200 billion worth of natural resources.

If MCMAU were to cross the boundary again, it would no longer be the business of the two big companies, and the upper-level management would not allow it.

Moreover, letting MCMAU be was also related to the strategies of upper-level management.

The crisis was getting bigger and bigger, and it was very likely that the era of national cultivation would commence soon. Recently, the government had notified the two major companies, especially the pill company, to produce a large number of cheap goods such as ordinary Vitality pills and Blood and Qi-replenishing pills.

These low-grade pills were prepared for the whole nation to start their cultivation.

Once this point was reached, the price reduction of the pills would become inevitable.

Although MCMAU was making a big commotion now, in the eyes of the two major companies, when the time came, it was uncertain of who would lose and who would profit.

At that point, the free supply of a large number of pills to the universities would probably become the norm. Now that MCMAU was messing things up, later on the two big companies would not lift a finger to help, letting them continue to create trouble. They were only bringing hardship upon themselves.

…

Fang Ping had some ideas about what the two companies were thinking, but he did not care.

It was better to rely on oneself than on others. Who knew how it would be at that time.

It would be better to take the benefits and work hard to improve, that was the right way.

…

In the last few days of February, Fang Ping was also frantically cultivating.

He did not put much effort into his rank, but mainly to cultivate Combat Techniques.

Saber techniques, Stepping Techniques, these were Fang Ping’s main cultivation goals.

In addition to these, Fang Ping was still working hard to learn more about the Catacombs’ languages. He had experiences in communicating with the people of the Catacombs, and this helped him improve.

Fang Ping had the commitment to learn the words of the Catacombs, but there were too few experts in this area and there were not enough of them for the upper management level. At present, there was no such expert in MCMAU.

On top of that, Lu Fengrou, Tang Feng, and Li Changsheng had completely disappeared and did not appear for a long time.

…

Aside from Fang Ping, everyone else was working hard.

Fang Yuan had entered the first high school affiliated to MCMAU.

Fang Ping had also looked for Wu Kuishan once. Fang Ping had kept a bit of the Life Essence that he exchanged last time. He had let Wu Kuishan seal it in Fang Yuan’s bones. When Fang Yuan could no longer accumulate the Vitality, she could choose to breakthrough.

It was difficult for Fang Yuan to improve her Vitality.

She only managed to bump it up to 180 cal with Fang Ping’s help.

It would be practically impossible for her to enter the thrice honing stage now.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, she could choose to break through and become a real martial artist.

As for their parents, Li Yuying did not find a job, and Fang Mingrong did not work with the government anymore but went to a corporation affiliated to MCMAU to work leisurely as a deputy.

Fang Mingrong was afraid of being too idle, but he has no plans on working too hard. He was the materialistic type, he just wanted a job so that he would not feel useless.

…

In the blink of an eye, they entered the month of March.

It was Friday, March 5.

Fang Ping was still cultivating at the seaside. Chen Yunxi ran over with a flushed face, slightly excited, and was pacing back and forth at a distance about ten meters away from Fang Ping.

Fang Ping put down the unsheathed Chaos-vanquishing saber. Lately, unless he was fighting real battles, he would keep nurturing the saber all the time.

Seeing that Chen Yunxi was waiting, Fang Ping exhaled, turned around, and walked over. He said, “What’s the matter?”

“Fang Ping, I broke through to Rank-4!”

Chen Yunxi looked very happy and said excitedly, “I’m now a middle-ranked martial artist!”

After Han Xu, among the national universities’ sophomore students, she was the second martial artist to enter the middle-ranks.

As for Fang Ping, he did not count now.

“Rank-4?”

Fang Ping said with a smile, “Congratulations, how many Celestial Bridges have been built?”

“Three!”

Chen Yunxi said somewhat regretfully, “Originally, I wanted to build five Celestial Bridges, but my physique was too weak to bear it.”

It was her physique that held her back, not the lack of energy.

Grandpa Chen went crazy this time. When his granddaughter broke through, the old man had directly sent over a large bag of energy stones… the ordinary kind and not the high-ranked energy stones.

Nevertheless, this bag was not cheap.

Chen Yaoting was so biased to his granddaughter that even the Chen family was somewhat dissatisfied.

Nevertheless, if an old man who was on the verge of Rank-8 insisted on being biased, no one could say anything about it.

According to what the old man said to his old friends, it was an incomparable bitterness and he had no choice but to be biased.

His granddaughter had taken a fancy to Fang Ping, that bastard, who cultivated as easily as if it were a game. No matter how strong his granddaughter’s innate skill talent was, no matter how hard-working, she could not keep up with the pace, so could only use money to make up for it.

No matter what was said, just make up for it first.

Otherwise, if Fang Ping became Grandmaster, and his granddaughter was still Rank-3, it would be too shameful.

Chen Yaoting did not believe that he, as a martial artist on the verge of entering Rank-8, fully supporting his granddaughter, could not beat Fang Ping!

Looking back, if he could get a batch of Life Essence and let his granddaughter take a bath in it, he wanted to see if Fang Ping, the bastard, could keep his distance.

Fang Ping, of course, did not know any of this.

Chen Yunxi… knew a little bit.

If it was in the past, she might not necessarily agree with this treatment. After all, she was not the only person in the Chen Family.

But now, Chen Yunxi did not think much about it.

She wanted to raise her rank, above all else. Otherwise, she would be left far behind. Fang Ping was already a Peak Rank-5.

“Three Bridges are considered good.”

Fang Ping said with a smile, “I heard that Han Xu only built three Bridges, but the boy had thrice honing of the bones and his Vitality and his physique are slightly stronger than you.”

Fang Ping said again, “Zhao Lei is about to break through?”

“Yes”

Chen Yunxi responded, but did not say much about Zhao Lei, instead she jumped up and said, “Fang Ping, I heard that you are going to the Catacombs, can I go this time?”

Fang Ping shook his head.

Seeing her disappointment, he chuckled lightly, “Your strength is a little weak. So is Qin Fengqing’s strength. Next time when I go down to the Catacombs, I will not bring him. Those following me should have the strength of at least Rank-5 or 6, otherwise, it will be easy to get killed.”

“Oh.”

Chen Yunxi did not argue. Going down the Catacombs was no joke. If she became a hindrance, she could easily cause harm to befall the others.

Although she could not go with him, Chen Yunxi said, “Then I will go to the Catacombs, not with you, but by myself…”

“You want to go to the Catacombs?”

“Well, I am also a Rank-4 martial artist already!”

Chen Yunxi hurriedly said, “I will only be near Hope City and I won’t go any deeper. Now that Sky Gate City is weakened, the scope of our activities has expanded a lot. We can’t always work out our cultivation on the ground.”

There was no shortage of natural resources for hard cultivation, but the speed of cultivation was not fast enough.

No one became a powerhouse through hard cultivation, as Wu Kuishan had said. Some young people might plan to maintain their lineage, even though the strength level was high, even stronger than Fang Ping.

However, these Vitality martial artists might not have much actual combat experience. If they were to encounter Fang Ping, a martial artist who played peekaboo with high-ranks, even if Fang Ping’s Combat Techniques were average, his psychological qualities could throw them a thousand miles away.

Fighting with all one had was even more frantic.

Fighting at close quarters, it would not be difficult for Fang Ping alone to kill a team of Rank-6s.

Aside from Fang Ping, Qin Fengqing could only be suppressed by geniuses like Fang Ping. Compared to those people, it was not difficult for Qin Fengqing to kill a few Rank-5s.

After hearing Chen Yunxi’s words, Fang Ping did not stop her, and simply said, “Then be careful. It’s better to go with the people from the school.”

Since becoming a martial artist, it made no sense to keep hiding behind.

Among those who planned to maintain their lineage, their ancestors were at paragon Rank-9. Although Chen Yunxi’s grandfather was also strong, he had not reached that stage yet.

If a war were to break out, she would have to rely on herself.

“Well, I will, Fang Ping, when will you enter the Catacombs?”

“Tomorrow or the day after, let’s see how the preparations with Qin Fengqing go.”

“Then we will go together, I will wait for you in Hope City.”

“…”

Chen Yunxi insisted to go in with him, and in the end, Fang Ping did not refuse.

…

On March 7th, other than Chen Yunxi, when Fang Ping set off on his journey, there were a lot of people who tagged along.

Huang Jing did not show up, it was uncertain whether he went in earlier or later.

Fang Ping did not ask him either. Earlier, Huang Jing had said that they would meet up when they arrived at the place. He was probably worried that if he traveled with Fang Ping and the others, it might attract the attention of high ranks and lead to trouble.

In front of Martial Arts Society.

Fang Ping glanced at everyone. This time, Chen Yunxi’s party was led by Middle-stage Rank-4 Liang Fenghua.

In addition to Liang Fenghua, Early-stage Rank-4 Ye Qing was also there, and there was another Rank-4. Including Chen Yunxi, there were four Rank-4 martial artists.

There were more than ten martial artists who were Upper-stage Rank-3 and they were also preparing to enter the Catacombs this time.

Resources were secondary, their priority was the desire to experience life and death situations.

“Currently, East Sunflower City and Sky Gate City have joined forces. Sky Gate City had been fighting with us for many years. However, they suffered heavy casualties the last time. Now it appears that they have withdrawn from the state of affairs. However, we have recently come in contact with East Sunflower City. Both sides are now in a run-in period.”

The “run-in period” sounded awkward, but that was how it was.

Liang Fenghua said as they walked, “So at present, in the battlefield between East Sunflower City and Hope City, the fights are mainly between middle and low-rank martial artists, then this would be the opportunity to start a war.

“Now that everyone is not too familiar with each other’s combat methods, we can learn through experience.

“In the later period, it will be even more bloody. When both sides become familiar with each other, and the real fighting starts, the relatively young newcomers are more likely to be killed or injured.”

Fang Ping glanced at the crowd. In the crowd, he saw a lot of acquaintances and nodded, “Brother, you are relatively stable. You have also entered the Catacombs many times, and you have a lot of experience. But you still have to be careful, don’t go in too deep. ”

“I know this.”

Liang Fenghua looked at him and said softly, “You have to be careful also, Fang Ping, don’t take too many risks.”

As soon as she finished speaking, at the side, a big bald head said with a big grin, “What are you afraid of? If you can worry about him, it’s better to worry about yourself, how can this bastard die so easily?”

Liang Fenghua decided to firmly ignore him, but after thinking about it, she still warned, “Qin Fengqing, it doesn’t matter if you die, just don’t let Brother Fang be caught in danger!”

Qin Fengqing almost spat blood!

‘Are you sure I took this guy to take risks?

‘I was only a Rank-4, but he was comparable to the Rank-6, okay!’

The crucial point was that this kid could flee better than himself. Before, he could not outrun him. Now, he could conceal his aura and his rank was higher than his. Qin Fengqing refused to admit that he knew that Fang Ping was much more capable than his life-saving skills.

He privately thought that even if Huang Jing died, Fang Ping would not die.

If Fang Ping and Huang Jing were thrown to the center of the Catacombs, Huang Jing would a hundred percent be finished first.

Qin Fengqing had a dark look on his face but did not say anything else. You just said what you wanted.

Chen Yunxi was the next to deliver him a blow as she said, “Brother Qin, when you go together, you need to take care of Fang Ping, he has not entered the Catacombs many times…”

Qin Fengqing stiffened, was she sure she wanted him to look after Fang Ping?

Fang Ping said with a smile, “Relax, I’m okay, maybe I will go in today and I will be back at night.”

…

While chatting, the crowd had passed through the underground passageway of MCMAU and reached the underground hall.

Seeing Fang Ping, many people greeted him, and some of the soldiers who guarded the door laughed, “President Fang, when was the last time you shot a commercial? It has been a long time since we saw your new video. We’re tired of watching the old ones.”

Fang Ping did not know to laugh or cry, these soldiers were doing nothing at all, right?

Having walked all the way until the alloy house, there was only one guard all alone.

Since the Scar Face was killed in battle, no new guards were stationed.

When Fang Ping arrived, the guard smiled and said, “Fang Ping, whose house are you going to raid this time?”

Last time Fang Ping and the others entered, they raided the home of a Rank-7 martial artist. At the time, he thought the situation in the Catacombs had improved. It was only afterward that he came to know that these two guys also caused the battle between Jiao and the same Rank-7.

Back then, Fang Ping and Qin Fengqing had both just entered Rank-4.

Now, one had killed a Peak Rank-6 and the other one was Peak Rank-4.

Could it be that these two boys were planning to raid a Rank-8’s house?

Fang Ping smiled and said, “Uncle, this time we’re going to the Catacombs to have a good experience. Every time we go to the Catacombs, we are rushing, but this time we are going to stay longer.”

Previously, each time he went to the Catacombs, he found himself being chased out by enemies before long.

This time… Fang Ping felt that he needed to stay longer.

Mining was secondary, but he had also prepared to go to Monster Sunflower City, or Sky Gate City would be alright too.

Sky Gate City had the Life Essence, and the Monster Sunflower City had the sunflower seeds that could nourish Mentality. If he could get some, it would be better than mining. Some things could not be bought with money.

The scarce natural resources, even the government did not have much as they were extremely difficult to obtain.

“Stay longer…”

The guard smiled and did not say much. He was secretly afraid that these guys would spend a long time and create more chaos in the Catacombs.

The Military Department was quite effective in conveying the news.

When Fang Ping was in Nanjiang Catacombs, he had caused pandemonium there, involving a Rank-9. If he were to do the same at Magic City’s Catacombs, he thought that Fang Ping would be blacklisted and banned from entering the next time.

Sometimes, it was more important for everyone to maintain the balance. Causing chaos was not necessarily a good thing.

…

When Fang Ping and his party entered the plaza from the passageway.

Inside Hope City, many people had received the news.

The next moment, many soldiers in Hope City sighed, “The two troublemakers are coming again, keep your distance!”

“No one is allowed to move around with them!”

“The martial artists around the Jiao’s Forest, evacuate as soon as possible!”

“Don’t leave anybody near Wolf Head Mountain!”

“…”

For a time, the orders were conveyed.

Following these two guys together, the probability of death would be too great. It would be best not to follow them, even a straight road was dangerous with them around.

Besides, the two high-ranks that the duo provoked before, one was a Rank-8 Jiao monster and the other was the Peak Rank-7 owner of Wolf Head Mountain, both of whom were not dead yet.

Who could tell if these two bastards would go and provoke them again this time?

As if that were not enough, both of them were professionals in taking advantage of others. It would be better not to pretend to be injured for nothing, or they might be taken advantage of again.

…

When Fang Ping walked all the way and saw the passers-by shunning away, he could not help but curse out of the corner of his mouth, “Qin Fengqing, no one likes you anymore!

In the Catacombs, there were a lot of martial artists, and encounters with Rank-6s were not rare. Just look, you had scared them all away!

Qin Fengqing sneered. Did he not know?

Who was the tiger who cleared the streets? Just ask anybody else, he was not as hated as Fang Ping!

Just as he had this thought, someone beside him scolded angrily, “Remember those two bastards in front of you, don’t follow them, keep your distance!”

“President, why?”

“Did you see that big bald head? They attracted hundreds of monster beasts to chase us last time. Now they had shaved bald the head, maybe they have some bad thoughts!”

“…”

Qin Fengqing turned to take a look, then he mumbled thoughtfully to himself, “Because of hatred caused by love, she’s trying to catch my attention now. Women sure are unscrupulous.”

The person who spoke was none other than Zhou Qiyue of Magic City Women’s University.

At this moment, Zhou Qiyue was surrounded by many girls, all of them young. It seemed that many of them were entering the Catacombs for the first time, brimming with curiosity.

Fang Ping had good hearing and glanced at Qin Fengqing through the corner of his eyes. This guy really thought Zhou Qiyue liked him?

Did he not see Zhou Qiyue’s expression that suggested she wished to hack him to death? How on earth did he interpret that spite as something born out of affection and thought that she intentionally attracted his attention?

Unconsciously, Qin Fengqing touched his bald head.

Fang Ping might have made a point about shaving his head. At least it helped to cover up some of his handsomeness.

He had vowed to only focus on martial arts. How could he spare time to deal with these love-struck women?

Unperturbed, Qin Fengqing walked straight ahead without even looking at Zhou Qiyue.

Zhou Qiyue was getting more and more agitated!

This guy did all those bad things, did he not feel remorseful at all?

Every time he had sent some inexplicable messages to her, Zhou Qiyue was so angry that she had thought of paying him a visit and kick the bastard.
