Jinhai City, the top floor of the Hailong Building.

 

Located in the commercial center of Jinhai City, one of the tallest buildings and also the iconic building of the Lan Group, the top floor of the Hailong Building offers a panoramic view of almost half of Jinhai City. However, despite only having two people in such a top-notch suite in Jinhai City, the atmosphere in the room is unusually oppressive.

 

"What did you say?"

 

"Are you saying that this Stone Peak not only rejected my goodwill, but also specifically asked you to convey a 'get lost' message?"

 

A man in his thirties, wearing a suit with a leather collar and exuding an imposing aura, sat on a luxurious leather sofa and looked at Luo Tiancheng, who was standing quietly in front of him. His voice was filled with deep coldness, causing even a tall man like Luo Tiancheng to tremble involuntarily.

 

And this imposing man is none other than Lan Hailong, the true helmsman of the Shadow Guild and the Lan Group. He is a legendary figure who fully invested in the Divine Realm when it first opened, and his influence through the establishment of the Shadow Guild and the Divine Realm has been growing, step by step, to the top of Jinhai City.

 

"Mr. Lan, I did not lie. These are the exact words from Stone Peak," Luo Tiancheng said, looking at Lan Hailong, who exuded an aura of authority. He quickly added, "At that time, he was extremely arrogant and completely disregarded our Shadow Guild. I even wanted to teach him a lesson immediately."

 

Lan Hailong glared at Luo Tiancheng and asked in a soft voice, "Then why didn't you take action?"

 

Luo Tiancheng felt embarrassed and said, "Mr. Lan, as you know, that place is the Divine Realm Academy, with many people and prying eyes. Although my strength is much stronger than Stone Peak's, if I were to deal with him, I wouldn't be able to do much in a short period of time. It wouldn't have a real teaching effect, and it would only give him more excuses and opportunities..."

 

"You don't need to explain anymore! I don't need to hear your excuses," Blue Hailong looked at Luo Tiancheng, who was hurriedly explaining, and said calmly, "Regarding your abilities, do you think I am unaware? Dealing with ordinary people and students from those academies may be easy for you, but when it comes to Shi Feng, even though his physical condition may not be as good as yours, his practical combat experience is much richer than yours. He has even been guided by a martial arts master several times. Don't even think about defeating him, it would be good enough if you can fight him evenly."

 

Luo Tiancheng didn't dare to explain any further, he just listened silently.

 

Because what Blue Hailong said was not wrong. Shi Feng used to be a prodigy with a high status and position. Naturally, he had the opportunity to interact with martial arts masters. After all, combat in the real world and various sports had long been integrated into the Divine Realm. There were many martial arts masters who were experts in the Divine Realm. As the guild leader of a major guild, it wasn't difficult for him to have contact with people of that level. After all, battles in the Divine Realm and real-world combat were inseparable.

 

Even the Shadow Guild had its own fitness center, hiring active martial artists as consultants to occasionally guide the guild's geniuses and elite members.

 

"Boss Lan, how about we find an opportunity to deal with him together with Brother Hu?" Luo Tiancheng couldn't help but suggest.

 

The "Brother Hu" he mentioned was Zhou Yuhu, the vice head coach of their Shadow Guild's training center. Although his skill level in the Divine Realm was not high, he never missed a day of training in the real world. His physical fitness and combat skills ranked among the top five in the entire Shadow Guild. Compared to those professional players who spent most of their time in the Divine Realm, he was much stronger in actual combat.

 

Blue Hailong shook his head slightly and said indifferently, "No need. If it were five years ago, Shi Feng might have been a trouble, considering he was young at that time and had good talent. He had a chance to make up for his physical shortcomings, increase his brain activity, and even improve his skills in the Divine Realm. But now, he is no longer a concern."

 

"Boss Lan, are we just going to let him go like this?" Luo Tiancheng felt a bit displeased and said, "You don't know how arrogant and domineering he was back then. He didn't even take our Shadow Guild seriously."

 

"That's normal," Blue Hailong smiled and said, "He now has a talented student, even Qi Mentor is eager to have him. Qi Mentor even contacted me directly. Of course, he has the capital to be arrogant. With such potential, his future achievements will definitely surpass Wu Xiaoxiao. He might even be directly recruited by the super guilds and surpass the Golden Generation that Qi Mentor brought up in the past."

 

Luo Tiancheng was also extremely jealous and envious, not understanding what good luck Shi Feng had encountered for Wu Lingling to become his student.

 

The reason why Teacher Qi could become a senior mentor in the academy and even gain the respect of the high-level members of the major guilds in Jin Hai City was because two of the students he had brought out a few years ago had entered the super guild, Dominating the World. Now, one of them had become a middle-level backbone of Dominating the World. Compared to the guild leader, Gu Yiren, who was still in Dominating the World, his status was much higher. After all, Gu Yiren was just one of the geniuses cultivated by Dominating the World and still had to compete with many other geniuses in the future to have a chance to enter the middle level of the super guild.

 

Because of this, Teacher Qi's status was transcendent in the entire academy, to the point where even Gu Yiren allowed his cousin to become Teacher Qi's student.

 

Now, Wu Xiaoxiao's talent displayed was stunning. If she was cultivated well and caught the attention of that super guild, it wouldn't be impossible for her to become a middle-level backbone of a super guild in the future. At that time, as a second-rate guild, Phantom Shadow would just be an insignificant ant. If things didn't go well, they might even capsize in this vast world of God's Domain.

 

"However, Shi Feng won't be arrogant for long," Blue Ocean Dragon said with a slight smile, then continued, "He does have a good student, but he only has this one good student. If this good student is no longer his student, he will realize how ridiculous his behavior is!"

 

"President Blue!" Luo Tiancheng suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but ask, "You're not planning to use that inheritance quota, are you?"

 

"That's right! It's that inheritance quota!" Blue Ocean Dragon nodded and said with a smile, "Now that the Ancient World is open and the inheritances in those special team dungeons are indeed precious, but they don't hold much significance for ordinary geniuses. It's better to use it to win over Wu Lingling. As long as Wu Lingling isn't foolish and considering the conditions offered by Teacher Qi, she will definitely choose Teacher Qi. Although the choice of teacher and student in the Divine Realm Academy is mutual, given the current situation, if Wu Lingling agrees, Shi Feng won't be able to change anything."

 

"President Blue is really amazing. If Shi Feng finds out about this, he will definitely regret his arrogant words before!" Luo Tiancheng couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Shi Feng's arrogance earlier. "He thinks that having a good student means he doesn't need to consider us, Phantom Shadow. He doesn't even think about the fact that as a free player without any resources, he wants to confront a guild. It's simply overestimating his abilities!"

 

In the ancient small world, according to the detailed investigation of various major guilds, it was discovered that there are some special team instances in the ancient small world, which have never appeared in the Divine Realm continent before and can accommodate a thousand-person team.

 

This special team instance is different from ordinary team instances. Not only can it only be cleared once a week, but it also has a professional inheritance inside, allowing a player to experience the ancient inheritance of their profession once, increasing the chance of player advancement.

 

Although it is unknown how effective this advancement is, as long as it can provide even a slight improvement, it is an extremely precious opportunity. After all, such opportunities are rare and hard to come by.

 

It should be noted that in the Divine Realm, every step is like heaven and earth, and there is no player who is not tempted by this.

 

However, it is difficult to obtain such an opportunity. First, it requires a sufficient number of experts, and second, the level of these experts must be very high, at least reaching the level of the later stages of the Trial Tower. This is something that ordinary large guilds dare not even think about.

 

Even a second-rate guild like Shadow can only organize one team, and they are completely incapable of organizing a second team of such high-level experts, let alone other large guilds and free players.

 

"Alright, find a chance to contact Wu Lingling later," Blue Ocean Dragon immediately looked at Luo Tiancheng and said in a deep voice, "Remember, do it as soon as possible! Currently, Wu Xiaoxiao and her teacher are still training outside, they probably don't know about this yet!"

 

"Mr. Blue, you can rest assured! With this opportunity, that little girl won't refuse," Luo Tiancheng said confidently.

 

After Luo Tiancheng finished speaking, he immediately left the Sea Dragon Building and headed straight to the Divine Realm Academy.

 

Meanwhile, in the ancient small world of the Divine Realm, Stone Peak and the others finally rested outside the desolate ruins.

 

Stone Peak glanced at everyone who had recovered their spirits and nodded.

 

"Alright, let's go in too!"
