Yuantian City's Upper Zone, Residential District:
As the Shifeng walked out of the residential district, he looked around the street and the surrounding tall buildings, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"That's really a big move. I can't believe that more than ten experts who are half a step away from the Grand Master realm are watching my movements."
As someone who had lived in the Upper Zone for some time now, Shi Feng had a rough understanding of the Upper Zone's situation thanks to the information Muxin had provided him.
Master martial arts experts were common in the Upper Zone. However, half-step grandmaster experts were rare even in the Upper Zone. Even among the Upper Zone's various major powers, half-step grandmaster experts were considered mainstays. Generally, only the first heirs of major corporations would have half-step grandmaster experts by their side.
Even a first-rate corporation in the Upper Zone wouldn't be able to match up to a dozen half-step grandmaster experts.
However, the Shifeng didn't pay much attention to the situation. As if he hadn't noticed these people, he smiled and leisurely made his way back to the residential district.
"Butler Yi, that kid clearly noticed us. Why do I get the feeling that he doesn't care about us at all?" When a middle-aged man in black saw Shi Feng's departing figure, he could not help but turn to Yi Kui, the butler beside him, and ask, "Does he have someone backing him?"
Ever since Wang Xuanming was chased out of the Upper Zone, Fu Jiuzhong had been enraged. Hence, he had ordered the various family elders to keep a close eye on the Shifeng.
If possible, they wanted to eliminate the Shifeng.
Naturally, these family elders were more than willing to give Fu Jiuzhong face. After all, according to their investigations, the Shifeng was only someone who had relied on Hong Xinyuan to enter the Upper Zone. He had no background. He only had some achievements in God's Domain.
In response to the man in black's question, Yi Kui shook his head and said, "As far as I know, that's not the case. Aside from his close relationship with the Boulder Corporation, only General Manager Xia is slightly interested in him. However, General Manager Xia is only interested in him. She wouldn't dare make an enemy out of us because of that kid. The fact that he doesn't care about us right now is very likely due to the recent increase in security in Yuantian City's Upper Zone."
"If that's the case, then this kid's good days are coming to an end!" The middle-aged man in black looked at the Shifeng in the distance, his gaze turning cold.
If it were a one-on-one battle, it would be extremely difficult to determine a victor in a short period of time.
However, they had eight grandmaster experts and six half-step Henglian grandmasters on their side. Among the eight grandmaster experts, three were bona fide Henglian grandmasters.
If they worked together, even an expert like Wang Xuanming would die within a short time. He wouldn't even have a chance to escape.
"Then I'll leave the rest to you, Elder Qi. I'll be waiting here for your good news." Yi Kui looked at the man in black in front of him and said respectfully.
Elder Qi was one of the leaders of a first-rate corporation in the Upper Zone. Although it was nearly impossible for him to improve his mental strength due to his advanced age, as a Henglian grandmaster, he was even stronger than Wang Xuanming.
If not for Fu Jiuzhong's sake, Elder Qi wouldn't have bothered with the Starline Corporation.
"No problem. Leave it to us. If we get the chance, we'll cripple him once!" Stroking his beard, Elder Qi said nonchalantly, "Let's teach this kid that he isn't someone he can provoke in the Upper Zone!"
The Upper Zone was indeed safe. Even mental strength masters wouldn't dare kill anyone. Otherwise, the Green God Company would investigate the matter thoroughly. Even mental strength masters wouldn't be able to survive in the Upper Zone. After all, this was the Green God Company's bottom line.
However, as long as the Green God Company didn't see them teaching or crippling someone, the Green God Company would turn a blind eye to it. After all, as long as someone didn't die, the Green God Company could heal them with its technology. It was only a matter of time.
After saying so, Elder Qi led his group and followed the Shifeng.
Upper Zone's villa district:
After strolling around the villa district for half an hour, the Shifeng arrived before a three-story, luxurious villa the size of four basketball courts.
As expected of the Five States Corporation. There are only ten such villas in the entire villa district. Even the Boulder Corporation can't afford one. It's no wonder Han Yifeng dares to compete for a slot to the middle layer, Shifeng couldn't help but marvel at the luxurious villa before him.
He had already checked the price of such a large villa. It cost a whopping 140 million contribution points. Moreover, even if one had enough contribution points, they wouldn't be able to purchase such a villa. One would need at least 100 million contribution points to do so.
However, such a large villa was much better than ordinary villas. This was because its location was already different from other villas.
Unlike the other villas, which occupied a large area, this large villa was located halfway up a mountain. To put it simply, it was the closest location to the middle layer. Hence, the strange energy contained in the air here was much denser than in other places.
Just by taking a deep breath, one would feel refreshed. It was as if one had entered a paradise.
Shortly after Shifeng rang the doorbell, a person walked out of the locked iron gate. This person was none other than Han Yifeng's butler, Zhuo Linqiu.
Looking at Shifeng, Zhuo Linqiu asked, "Young Master Shi, may I know why you are here at such a time?"
"Young Master Han and I have previously discussed a deal," Shifeng said calmly. "According to our agreement, I am here to make a deal with Young Master Han."
"A deal? Please follow me. "
Zhuo Linqiu nodded. He then led Shifeng into the large villa.
As Shifeng entered the large villa, he immediately noticed an open-air training ground outside the villa. Several young men and women were currently training before an old man in martial arts robes.
Although the old man's hair was completely white, the aura he exuded was even stronger than Wang Xuanming's.
Inside the large villa, the young men and women in the open-air training ground couldn't help but pay attention to Shifeng's arrival. They were curious about the Shifeng's identity and why he had actually come to the Five States Corporation as a guest. However, after being reprimanded by the old man, they obediently returned to their training.
"It seems that I really can't underestimate the Five States Corporation." After scanning the large villa, Shifeng was slightly surprised. "It's just a small villa, yet there are actually six grandmasters and more than ten half-step grandmasters. Even the Boulder Corporation is a far cry from such a force."
When Zhuo Linqiu arrived at a reception room on the third floor, he opened the wooden door and said, "Young Master Shi, the young master is waiting inside!"
Nodding, Shi Feng entered the reception room. When he entered, he saw Han Yifeng sitting quietly before a solid wooden table with his eyes closed, meditating. The aura he exuded was nowhere to be seen, making him seem like an ordinary person. It was obvious that Han Yifeng's aura was vastly different from when Shi Feng first met him.
Only after Shifeng entered the room did Han Yifeng open his eyes.
Looking at Shifeng, Han Yifeng smiled faintly and said, "Brother Shifeng, I didn't expect you to come here so soon. I had thought that you would only come here during the last ten days. At that time, I could wait for the highest bid and earn more resources."
Shifeng was already famous in the Upper Zone. Not only was he responsible for driving Wang Xuanming out of the Upper Zone, but he was also the Ling YI Society's President. The resources he wielded were enough to tempt many of the Upper Zone's various powers.
If not for Wang Xuanming's teacher, Fu Jiuzhong, many of Yuantian City's Upper Zone's major corporations would've approached Shifeng long ago.
"Forget about waiting for the highest bid. I know that I'm not the only channel you have, Young Master Han. If I sell my contribution points at the last minute, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get a good price. In fact, you might not even need my contribution points," Shifeng said, shaking his head.
Originally, he had indeed intended to do so. However, he no longer had such intentions.
After all, Ling Yi urgently needed a large amount of resources right now, especially Life Potions. Life Potions were excellent potions for improving one's physique. If not for this restriction, Fire Dance, Lei Bao, and the others would've long since become grandmasters.
"Brother Shifeng, you jest. In that case, let's do as we agreed. I'll buy as many contribution points as you have," Han Yifeng said, chuckling.
"No! I want a one-to-one ratio, "Shifeng said, shaking his head.
