Frankly speaking, they didn't care if the Holy City fined or imprisoned Wang Zhong. It was none of their business. What they were afraid of was that Wang Zhong would be expelled directly! If the Fat King was expelled, what would happen to the second-class apprentice quota? The competition in the Holy City was too intense, and there were too many setbacks. Many people were looking forward to this, which was why they maintained their fighting spirit.
The newcomers were discussing this matter. They didn't know whether to laugh or cry when they talked about Wang Zhong's death-seeking journey. Meanwhile, Wang Zhong was still locked up in a small black room, waiting for his fate to be judged.
There was a huge commotion outside, but he was rather calm. It was Simba who kept complaining and ridiculing him. The great Lord Simba clearly did not like this Headless Horseman at all. Back in Decapitation Canyon, he had already made them suffer. Now, he had stirred up trouble again.
"This Wang Zhong …" Teacher Bobo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The results of the investigation were out. They followed the standard procedures, and the process was quite clear. It was Wang Zhong's first time using a summoning array. He used a bone he brought back from the Dimensional World. Originally, he wanted to summon a little skeleton, but he felt a powerful aura. At that moment, he was scared out of his wits. In the end, there was a big explosion that caused the space to collapse.
Of course, they couldn't just listen to one side of the story. The investigation team had already collected evidence at the scene. From the traces of spatial fluctuations at the scene and the descriptions of some Holy Disciples at the scene, it was consistent with what Wang Zhong had said. The final conclusion was also out. Lack of power, inadequate control of the ward, and poor on-the-spot response led to the final loss of control of the ward. The dark creature wasn't really summoned. Otherwise, no matter how powerful it was, it wouldn't have been able to escape the Holy City's surveillance.
There was nothing wrong with what Wang Zhong said, so in the end, the two Great Teachers in charge of the case concluded that it was an experimental accident. Of course, they were also suspected of violating the basic laws of their secondary professions. However, such a trivial matter did not require the Great Teachers' involvement, and they were not interested in it. The two Great Teachers went over that night mainly because they sensed the terrifying dark aura. The arrival of a lord from the Dark World was something that made the blood of the Great Teachers boil. If it really came out, they might even be happier.
As for Wang Zhong and the collapse of the dormitory building, it was a huge matter to the newcomers, but in the eyes of the Great Teachers, it was just a small matter. A country had its laws, and a city had its rules. They just had to deal with it according to the rules.
Wang Zhong was from the Tyrants' Tempering Faculty, so naturally, he would be handed over to the Tyrants, including compensation. The Holy City only wanted a result.
The handling of this matter was handed over to Teacher Bobo of the Tempering Faculty. According to the rules, Bobo had jurisdiction over this matter, but there were many Teachers who could handle this matter. If Wang Zhong encountered a strict Teacher, he could directly demote Wang Zhong to a slave, or even banish him. No one would waste time on such matters. However, Teacher Bobo was considered the Teacher with the best personality in the Holy Land. It was a miracle that he could be called a Teacher back then. He could only be said to be a weirdo of his kind. After seriously understanding the cause and effect of Wang Zhong's matter, Bobo felt that it wasn't a big deal because it essentially had little to do with Wang Zhong. The Holy Land had always encouraged apprentices to learn about various occupations. To be honest, who hadn't drawn a beginner summoning array in their dormitory before? For something like this to happen on the first try, it could only be said that Wang Zhong was unlucky. On the bright side, it meant that he was very talented.
Chance?
On the path of cultivation, chance represented a lot of things, and it depended on whether you could turn chance into inevitability.
Therefore, after criticizing and educating Wang Zhong, Bobo let Wang Zhong take a look at the warehouse. This was also considered his departure. He had to clean up the warehouse, eat and sleep there, and forget about getting a new dormitory. This was definitely a huge piece of good news for Wang Zhong. It was really like lifting it high and letting it down gently. He had passed the test just like that.
Wang Zhong hummed a tune while bickering with Simba. Simba hated the Headless Knight very much, but it was a pity that this was his second Dharma Idol. Wang Zhong followed Teacher Bobo's mark on the map all the way. This place was really quite remote. It was definitely not the inner city area, as it was not within the range of the inner city's protective shield. However, it was also not the civilian area. The surroundings were completely desolate. Other than a large row of empty bungalows, there was not a single person in sight.
It was said that this was an old warehouse area, and some discarded materials were still piled up here. However, they were all worthless, and it would be a pity to abandon them, so they had been stored here. Later, there was a plague, and no one lived nearby. Not only was the living conditions in this area poor, but it was also quite troublesome to enter and exit the city. Although they were all practitioners, no one had ever said that cultivation was equal to hard work. In the Holy Land, cultivation itself was a torment, but in terms of living conditions, it was definitely like heaven. The abundance of resources here was beyond imagination, and the extravagance was also as great as possible. For the strong, this was just a condition for spiritual pleasure and convenience.
However, Wang Zhong was not dissatisfied with this arrangement, and Simba was even more satisfied. After knowing that this was an abandoned area, Wang Zhong directly let it out. This outdoor free space was something that Simba had always yearned for but could not achieve. This place was not bad, and he could finally move around freely, no longer restricted to a small dormitory room.
"Sir Simba is very satisfied!" Simba smiled so widely that his eyes almost turned into slits. He rode on Big White and rushed to the front, whining loudly. With so many warehouses, he could choose any one of them. "Let's build a perfect nest together!"
"What nest? Watch your words." Wang Zhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm not a bird."
"You have one!" Simba laughed loudly, and at a glance, he chose the largest room. The materials in the warehouse had long been moved away. Although it looked empty, it was relatively clean, and there was a pavilion on the second floor.
"This, this is the legendary standalone villa! A standalone villa that belongs to Simba! " Simba was so excited that he cried. He had always dreamed of it, but he had never had it. His eyes were shining as he looked at the beautiful staircase.
"Fly, fly!" Big White, who was under Simba's crotch, wanted to express something urgently, but he was hit on the head by Simba. "The second floor is mine!"
Big White was just acting cute. Recently, after being nourished by Wang Zhong's Soul Power, Big White had grown a lot and slowly began to show a little wisdom. Although the process of growth was not fast, it did not stop after all. Under Simba's brainwashing, this guy might really think that its job was to be a mount.
"Fly, fly!" Big White shouted, trying to please Wang Zhong.
"Alright, seeing that you are so sincere, I will add a mattress under Sir Simba's bed for you. But remember, you are just a servant. The second floor will always belong to the great Simba!"
With Big White's intelligence, it was obvious that he couldn't understand the meaning of being a subordinate. Anyway, it was fine as long as Simba was willing to live there. In the blink of an eye, he became happy and flew even harder while carrying Simba around. Wang Zhong shouted from downstairs, "What are you wandering around for? Come down and move your things!"
Looking at the warehouse was obviously just an excuse. There was nothing to guard here, and Wang Zhong had to clean up his residence anyway. Hence, he let Simba and Big White do it. Meanwhile, Wang Zhong was observing the second Dharma Idol, the Headless Knight. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that this powerful dark creature that had killed so many of them would become his Dharma Idol Guardian. This was probably the miraculous effect of the combination of the Fate Stone and the stone slab. This made Wang Zhong especially look forward to the stone slab that Lord Caslort had given them as compensation. He didn't know what it represented.
In fact, Wang Zhong really didn't have the time to observe the Headless Knight seriously during the battle. At this moment, Wang Zhong could clearly feel the 'beauty' of this terror knight. Yes, the beauty of death. The missing head was condensed by the dark gray aura of death, and its emotions were also expressed through this aura of death. The handsome and solemn black armor was really quite handsome. Perhaps because it had been baptized by the Fate Stone, although it maintained the essence of death, it had gotten rid of those disgusting emotions and smell. The skeleton warhorse under it was tall and mighty, and it seemed that the combat power of this skeleton warhorse was not to be underestimated. At this moment, the black knight's spear had already revealed its essence. It was three meters long and had a precise spiral pattern. It was definitely a Hundred Battles God Spear. Of course, since it had become a Dharma Idol Guardian, the overall combat power of the Headless Knight had been reduced to the Heroic Soul Stage. Simply put, this poor kid had dropped a level.
In fact, Wang Zhong felt that the Headless Knight had purposely come to him. Could it be that he was attracted by something?
Wang Zhong wanted to communicate with his Dharma Idol Guardian, but he realized that his thoughts were like a rock in the ocean. Compared to Salamander, the Headless Knight's reaction seemed to be weaker, but he felt that this guy was more ferocious than Salamander.
Of course, in order to make the best use of everything and get to know each other better, Wang Zhong summoned both Salamander and the Headless Knight to work together. The environment was still very important.
Other people's Dharma Idols were treated like Bodhisattvas and were as precious as their lifeblood. Wang Zhong and Simba were probably the only ones who could think of summoning powerful Dharma Idols to do odd jobs and move things. At his peak, the Headless Knight Bolsanches could fight against half of the Federation alone. He faced more than ten Heavenly Soul Stage experts alone, and he was currently riding on his skeleton horse and moving tables, chairs, and benches. He seemed to be doing it very seriously. If the Heavenly Soul Stage experts who had fought against him before saw this, they would probably vomit blood directly.
He was simply too awesome!
Moreover, as the commander-in-chief, Simba obviously favored one person and discriminated against the other. He kept ordering Bolsanches around. Who asked this guy to make everyone suffer so much? Life was full of ups and downs. Even you would have such a day!
"Move the chairs over and the table over."
"Idiot! Is that a table? Don't you have eyes? Phew … It doesn't seem to have grown … Okay, but that's not a reason for you to do something wrong! Why are you just standing there? Are you not convinced that the great Sir Simba is scolding you? Come and fight me one-on-one, idiot! "
"Ahem, let's fight one-on-one next time … No fighting! Hurry up and get to work! "
Simba was in high spirits and full of energy. He was very happy.
…
In fact, Wang Zhong didn't stay idle when he was locked up in the small black house for the past few days. Other than a few times of questioning and investigation, he spent most of his time meditating and cultivating. This calm and innocent attitude was also the reason why the Great Teachers let him go.
Although the progress of building his Soul Core was constantly improving, finding the right direction didn't mean that success would be easy. For some things, only when you were closer to success would you be able to intuitively feel how far it was because you understood it better.
His lack of Soul Power was still the biggest obstacle that hindered his cultivation speed. Five thousand Grassos of Soul Power only provided a possibility for building his Soul Core, and it required a long time to accumulate. If he really wanted to complete it quickly, he still had to reach the limit of the Peak Heroic Soul Stage.
Wang Zhong had also been using the normal method to accumulate Soul Power, exhausting his Soul Sea and then replenishing it. Every time, he could increase the total amount of his Soul Sea a little, but this method of cultivation was too slow. For every one Grassos of Soul Power, he needed to replenish it at least ten times. Furthermore, as his Soul Sea continued to increase, this method would become slower and slower. After all, the larger the Soul Sea, the longer the consumption and replenishment process would be. Ever since he crossed the Middle Phase of the Heroic Soul Stage, Wang Zhong had never stopped cultivating in this area. No matter how busy he was, he would squeeze out a lot of time to focus on this. But now, it had been more than a month, and he had only increased his Soul Power by less than a hundred Grassos. Wang Zhong made a rough estimate. If he purely used this method to improve his Soul Power, it would take at least five or six years to complete the long Heroic Soul Stage. That would be too slow.
After completing today's cultivation, he withdrew from the state of meditation. It was already late, and Simba and Big White were still chattering downstairs. The Headless Knight's spear had been commandeered by Simba as a construction tool, and it seemed like he was remodeling the warehouse space downstairs. They were making a lot of noise.
Just as he was about to go downstairs to see the results of today's work, his Skylink suddenly rang. It was a message from Lan Daier. "You released it? Come over and let me see if you're missing a piece of flesh. "
Recently, Lan Daier seemed to be speaking more and more casually. Wang Zhong quite liked this feeling; it was really a kind of intimate and exciting feeling. It could be said that he was attracted to her, but he didn't know if he was attractive to Teacher Lan Daier. Although Teacher Lan Daier was very good to him, Wang Zhong didn't have the confidence to be narcissistic. Everyone knew that the gourmet was the most popular soul partner. She was beautiful, intelligent, and devoted, not to mention her help in cultivation. In the Holy Land, there were many combinations of Great Teachers and even Sacred Teachers. Lan Daier was definitely in the top ten of the Holy Land's Charm Ranking. As for the beauties and experts that Helen and the others talked about, it was purely commercial flattery.
Since Teacher Lan Daier had summoned him, Wang Zhong didn't delay any longer. He quickly moved around and set off immediately.
In fact, even Wang Zhong himself couldn't tell what kind of relationship he had with Lan Daier. The work of tasting dishes had always been going on, and they could be considered boss and employee. But frankly speaking, the Palulu Chicken that Lan Daier had given him last time was probably more than what he could afford even if he tried the dishes for several years. Thus, Wang Zhong didn't ask about Lan Daier's salary anymore. This employer-employee relationship seemed a little unclear. The Samsara wine had also officially entered Lan Daier's restaurant, so it should be considered a cooperative relationship. However, when the two of them interacted normally, Wang Zhong felt that they were more like friends or confidantes?
