The drinking session lasted all the way until ten o'clock at night.
After bidding farewell to Elder Zeng and Elder Liu, Qin Ning immediately took Wang Yousheng and soared into the sky, flying toward the cultivation base in the suburbs.
Speaking of which, he had never actually visited this base before.
Even though it was already ten o'clock at night, it was not yet time to rest for the people at the base.
Their cultivation followed a very strict schedule, usually lasting until around two in the morning.
At this moment, on a plaza within the base.
About a thousand people stood neatly in formation, waiting there.
These men were the absolute elites selected from various military regions across the country, the true kings of soldiers.
At first, they had no idea what they were actually here to do.
It wasn't until they began to come into contact with cultivation that their worldview was completely blown open, realizing that a class of people known as cultivators actually existed in this world.
However, knowing was one thing. The strongest cultivators they had seen so far were only Captain Wang Yousheng and Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan.
And in their hearts, these two men were probably the strongest human beings in the world today.
Captain Wang Yousheng went without saying. With a cultivation base at the third level of the Body Refining Realm, his physical fitness had long surpassed the standards of normal humans. The base had previously held a challenge match, allowing these elite soldiers to challenge Wang Yousheng together.
These soldier kings, each and every one of them the best from their respective military districts, could easily take down three to five grown men in their daily lives.
But when they joined forces ten of them, twenty of them, or even a hundred of them to besiege Wang Yousheng, they were all defeated by him.
From then on, the crowd no longer had any doubts about the cultivation and arrangements here.
This was especially true for Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan.
He was the sole true god in everyone's heart.
Because Jiang Yunshan had once demonstrated blocking bullets with his physical body right in front of all of them.
A handgun fired at him from a distance of ten meters only left a slight bruise on his body!
Such a thing completely defied their understanding of common sense.
They truly understood how powerful so-called cultivators were, and they hoped that one day, they too could become an existence like Jiang Yunshan.
At this moment, however, they were all filled with doubt.
Because starting two hours ago, Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan had summoned them from their cultivation, and they had been standing here for two whole hours.
During this time, Jiang Yunshan hadn't said a word. He just stood there quietly with them, his expression serious and stern, as if he were waiting for someone's arrival.
This made them feel even more curious and puzzled.
Because in their hearts, Jiang Yunshan was a god-like existence.
After all, to be able to resist even bullets, this type of person had completely exceeded worldly understanding.
What kind of person could be worthy of his utmost attention, to the point of gathering everyone in advance to wait here?
Could it be that Elder Zeng and Elder Liu were coming to inspect?
But that shouldn't be the case.
It wasn't as if Elder Zeng and Elder Liu hadn't visited before. When the two elders came to inspect previously, they had instructed everyone in the base to just continue their cultivation and not make a big fuss about coming out to receive them. Moreover, they had always been very polite to Wang Yousheng.
Therefore, it obviously couldn't be them coming over.
Then who else could it be?
The crowd was completely baffled.
Obviously, most of them were unaware of Qin Ning's existence.
Only those few who had followed Wang Yousheng to Liu City back then would know.
Buzz!
Just as everyone was feeling curious about this, they suddenly felt the space above their heads ripple slightly.
Immediately, everyone subconsciously looked up.
Although it was night, the moon tonight was exceptionally bright.
They saw two figures actually hovering in the sky above the plaza, their backs to the moonlight.
Such a scene instantly shocked everyone present. Their faces all revealed dumbfounded expressions, finding it unbelievable to the extreme.
Swoosh!
Light flashed as the two figures descended from the sky, landing in the middle of the plaza and standing right in front of them.
Only then did the crowd truly see the appearances of these two people clearly. If it wasn't Qin Ning and Wang Yousheng, who else could it be?
They naturally recognized Wang Yousheng.
But Qin Ning looked very unfamiliar; they had never seen him before.
Could it be that Captain Wang went to another military district and brought back another king of soldiers?
Wait.
That didn't seem to be the main point.
The point was, why did they fly over?
They hadn't seen him for just a few days; could Captain Wang have become so powerful that he could fly while carrying someone?
Greetings, Master.
Just as everyone's doubts and curiosity reached their peak, they saw Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan walk up to Wang Yousheng and the young man, bow respectfully, and perform a grand salute.
Master?
That young man was actually Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan's master?
Everyone was shocked, their faces full of disbelief.
All along, in their hearts, Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan had been a god-like existence.
There shouldn't be any human in this world stronger than Jiang Yunshan, right?
But now, the facts told all of them that Jiang Yunshan actually had a master.
Moreover, his master was a young man they had never seen before.
Most importantly, this young man had just flown over with Wang Yousheng.
Or rather, it was he who had brought Wang Yousheng flying over!
That made sense.
With such methods, it was no wonder the other party could become Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan's master.
But even so, they still felt that what they had just seen was too surreal.
Although they had been in contact with cultivation for some time, they had often heard Chief Instructor Jiang Yunshan say that once one's cultivation reached a certain realm, a person could fly through the air.
But hearing about such a thing and seeing it with their own eyes were two completely different matters.
At least in all their eyes, even the true god Jiang Yunshan couldn't achieve that level, so how could anyone else in this world possibly do it?
Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect you to already be at the sixth level of the Body Refining Realm. I reckon in another year, you'll be able to break through to the Pulse Condensation Realm, right? Qin Ning sized up Jiang Yunshan and nodded at him with great satisfaction.
Jiang Yunshan was indeed worthy of being his only disciple; his talent was truly high, and he hadn't disappointed Qin Ning's expectations.
Being praised by Qin Ning like this, Jiang Yunshan immediately felt flattered. It's all because Master taught me well.
Don't flatter me. I haven't really taught you much.
Qin Ning smiled and waved his hand. Then, he took two steps forward and looked at the crowd ahead, whose faces were already burning with passion and whose gazes were extremely fervent. Hello everyone, let me introduce myself. My name is Qin Ning. From now until tomorrow morning, I will be here to guide your cultivation. No matter what questions you have, you can ask me directly.

"Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success?

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
