After coming out of Yu Qiubai's office, Zhou Wen took out his phone and attempted to call his father, Zhou Lingfeng. After some thought, he realized that it was impossible for him to offend a figure like An Tianzuo.
For An Tianzuo to know that he was a high school student from a small city and criticize him by name, it didn't make sense.
This time, the call went through. Zhou Lingfeng's voice sounded from the phone. "Son, are you missing me so soon?"
Zhou Wen was long accustomed to Zhou Lingfeng's character, so he remained unmoved. He directly said, "Dad, do you know a person named An Tianzuo?"
"You're talking about Tianzuo? Of course I know him." With that said, Zhou Lingfeng exclaimed curiously. "How do you know that Tianzuo is your brother? I don't think I've introduced you to him, right? "
"My brother?" Zhou Wen immediately felt his mind go blank.
"That's right. Tianzuo is Little Lan's son. I married Little Lan, so he's naturally your elder brother. By the way, you also have a younger sister named An Jing …"
Zhou Wen didn't hear what Zhou Lingfeng said next because his mouth was agape. He didn't close it for a long time. The development had exceeded his imagination. Zhou Lingfeng had actually married such a woman.
"Dad, how's your relationship with An Tianzuo?" Zhou Wen probed.
"Very good. Tianzuo and Little Jing respect me very much and have a good relationship," Zhou Lingfeng answered without hesitation.
Zhou Wen understood Zhou Lingfeng's character and knew that he wasn't lying. He couldn't help but feel puzzled. If An Tianzuo and An Jing really have a good relationship with Zhou Lingfeng, why are they treating me like this? Could it be that they don't really approve of Dad and Ouyang Lan's marriage?
Zhou Wen could sense that Zhou Lingfeng was in a good mood and was very happy about the marriage. He didn't wish for his matters to affect Zhou Lingfeng's marriage, nor did he wish to be a burden to Zhou Lingfeng.
If An Tianzuo and An Jing really didn't wish for Zhou Lingfeng and Ouyang Lan to marry, which was why they were treating him this way, there was even more reason for Zhou Wen to not let this matter affect Zhou Lingfeng's marriage. Otherwise, wouldn't it be as they wished?
Although he had yet to meet An Tianzuo and didn't know why An Tianzuo had done so, Zhou Wen already had a very bad impression of him.
"No matter how powerful the An family is, it has nothing to do with me. I don't plan on taking advantage of the An family. Your An family shouldn't go too far." Although Zhou Wen knew the ins and outs of the matter, it was still useless.
He couldn't possibly tell others that An Tianzuo was displeased because his father had slept with An Tianzuo's mother, causing him to find him an eyesore, right?
Not to mention that he couldn't say it, even if he said it, it wouldn't change his current situation.
An Jing was able to defeat me in one strike, and An Tianzuo's words nearly made me lose the right to take the college entrance exam. At the end of the day, it's because I'm too weak. Without strength, I'm bullied. If I were an Epic expert, would they be able to bully me like this? Zhou Wen wasn't one to complain. He quickly put the matter aside and took out the mysterious phone to focus on grinding.
The former principal of Guide High School had once evaluated Zhou Wen, saying that he had never seen anyone as focused as Zhou Wen.
The word "focus" sounded like a very ordinary criticism, but to truly achieve it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Humans weren't saints. They all had emotions and would be tempted and disturbed by external objects and their own emotions. Even immortals in the heavens would have their mortal hearts stirred. Even Buddhas would be bewitched by Skyfiends, much less mere mortals.
Many people said that learning was difficult because they couldn't put their heart and soul into it. They couldn't focus on learning, and they couldn't maintain that state of concentration all the time.
However, Zhou Wen was different. No matter what he did, no matter what environment he was in, he could easily enter a focused state. He could fully devote himself, making it difficult for him to be affected by external factors. This was why the former principal had made such an evaluation of Yu Qiubai.
In-game, Zhou Wen summoned his Companion Beast, Mutated Vigor Ant. Although it also had 9 Constitution, the fellow's carapace was hard and its defense was much stronger than Zhou Wen's.
The blood-colored avatar rode the Mutated Vigor Ant as it charged through the Ant Nest. There was no need to worry even if it was surrounded by a horde of Vigor Ants.
The Mutated Vigor Ant struck out with its two front claws, killing ordinary Vigor Ants with a single punch. With its hard carapace, it remained invincible amidst the horde of Vigor Ants.
"It would be great if I could have a spear." Zhou Wen realized that the blood-colored avatar was riding on the Mutated Vigor Ant's back. Due to the distance, it was difficult for him to attack the surrounding Vigor Ants. All he could do was jump off the Mutated Vigor Ant's back and fight alongside it.
Ever since he obtained the mysterious phone, Zhou Wen had never had such a great time grinding. The man and ant were practically unstoppable as they charged forward. When they encountered Mutated Vigor Ants, they could join forces to quickly slay them.
In the past, Zhou Wen could only grind in the area ahead. He would be surrounded and killed before he could reach the back. Now, he was able to charge forward and quickly leave the area he had previously been in.
After killing so many Vigor Ants, although two dimensional crystals dropped, their levels were very low. Zhou Wen only replenished his energy after absorbing them.
Ding!
After killing another Mutated Vigor Ant, Zhou Wen heard another familiar sound. He took a careful look and was immediately delighted. The dimensional crystal that dropped this time was a Vigor Ant Crystal at the ninth level.
Zhou Wen controlled the blood-colored avatar to pick up the Vigor Ant Crystal and immediately felt an electric current surge through his body, forming an intense electric current cycle.
His Vigor Divine Fist, which was originally at Rank 7, instantly rose to Rank 9.
The might of Rank 9 Vigor Divine Fist increased once again, but the expenditure of Primordial Energy also increased. Using it once drained 5 Primordial Energy, and Zhou Wen only had 9 Primordial Energy. He wasn't able to use Vigor Divine Fist a second time in a short period of time.
After reaping the rewards, Zhou Wen immersed himself in grinding even more. The man and ant engaged in a frenzied killing spree in the Ant Nest as they headed deeper into the nest.
The Ant Nest was like a gigantic underground maze. Zhou Wen didn't see an end despite charging for nearly two hours. The cave ahead of him widened as the passageway became as wide as a large warehouse.
