The Favored Son of Heaven-Chapter 562 - Mutual Defeat

Chapter 562: Mutual Defeat

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The advancement of each industry was often led by top talents.

If any industry wanted to make a huge leap, it often needed the existence of a genius beyond ordinary geniuses!

Enzo Rota and Lin Liqiang! Although they were not the first authoritative people in the industry, they were recognized as super-geniuses who rarely appeared, perhaps only once in every five hundred years. Many people believed that if humanity could make any breakthrough progress in the future, it would definitely be related to the two of them. They were the future kings of these two industries!

The professionals for the two major industries exclaimed in surprise, and this had caught the attention of other industries personnel. Those who could join the core members of the Dragon Hall were talents who had been carefully selected by Zhang Xiangyang. They felt greatly honored to be part of Dragon Hall even though almost every one of them was part of the elite in their industry and could even be said to be the elite among elites.

Such people could be said to have much pride in themselves! It was a very difficult thing for them to admire anyone.

However, just after Qin Fen mentioned the names, people in the two major industries were surprised. What did that mean?

Be it biochemical beast or medicine, these were among the most advanced industries in humanity today! These were two of the industries that drove humanity forward.

Mobile armors, cosmo battleships, and new energy were also the industries that led humanity forward. However, they couldn’t overlook the biochemical beast and the pharmaceutical industries — especially the biochemical beast industry.

Several of Lin Liqiang’s papers not only received great responses in the academic world, it also attracted the interest of many journalists.

“In the future, everyone can own a biochemical beast!”

“Biochemical beast will no longer be an expensive luxury!”

“Get rid of the death threat from a biochemical beast fusion!”

“Biochemical beast, the dream of immortality!”

“Biochemical beast, the possibility of space survival!”

The field of academia had to admit the possibilities of Lin Liqiang’s words and papers. However, they all knew that every topic he mentioned was being studied by countless people, but none of those people dared to make such high-profile announcements like him. After all, a large amount of research funding was involved but there had been no impressive results until today.

At that instant, all the social elites who were present had to readjust their evaluation and their view of Qin Fen. As the founder of Dragon Hall, he not only had a strong martial strength, he also exceeded ordinary people’s expectations in terms of talent attraction skill. He had found two geniuses without being high-profile.

“Hall Master Qin, you aren’t joking, are you?”

After being stunned for a long time, an elite who engaged in biochemical beast research couldn’t help but ask the question that many people would like to ask, even though he knew that Qin Fen wouldn’t joke about these things.

“They are my friends.” Qin Fen thought of Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota, who were his friends since high school, and he felt touched. Sometimes life was really amazing. It all started just because Lin Liqiang thought that Qin Fen was different from other students and Qin Fen was bearable to him, so their friendship had begun. In the end, it actually developed into such a relationship today.

“I am very happy to be able to cooperate with and learn from the most talented genius of the entire Federation!” A young woman with glasses reached her hand out to Qin Fen, “Thank you Hall Master Qin, for giving me a chance to get a close look at Enzo Rota, the super genius of the pharmaceutical industry.”

All of a sudden, several researchers reached out and expressed their willingness to go to Saturn on a ‘hall sponsored trip’.

Zhang Xiangyang quickly booked the tickets and contacted their family members. Those who were willing to come to Saturn could come together; if they didn’t want to come to Saturn, they could also choose to go to Qin Fen’s territory on Earth so that their safety could be guaranteed over there.

Qin Fen was no match for Zhang Xiangyang in the capability to handle these specific tasks, so he simply cared nothing about it. He chatted with other people as it had been a long time since he last entered this battle net.

“Master…”

An excited voice sounded across the conference hall. A young martial artist at the end of the crowd came forward in several consecutive jumps. His movements were obviously fast, but it gave a rather quiet and strange feeling.

Qin Fen raised his eyebrows and looked at his disciple, Ma Jun Tie, whom he took in at the Sacred Martial Hall that day. They hadn’t met in half a year and his star-level strength had actually reached the level of nine-star.

They didn’t differ much in age. When they faced each other, everyone suddenly found that both of their auras were completely different. Qin Fen exuded a kind of grandmaster attitude, which really gave the feeling of a senior looking at a young junior.

“Six-star to nine-star in six months, not bad.”

Many people were again surprised by Qin Fen’s praise. They reevaluated this core member, who rarely showed himself in the Sky Battle Net.

In the past, many people had wondered who this young man was to become a core member. What qualified him as a core member?

Six-star martial strength to nine-star martial strength in just six months, such a martial dao growth rate had indeed qualified him as a core member.

More people started to fantasize about whether their descendants could be like Ma Jun Tie, if they could get just a bit of guidance from Qin Fen. They wondered if their descendants’ star-level strength could rocket high.

“Grandmaster is indeed a grandmaster, even his disciple is developing so fast.”

“Yeah, I’m not sure whether my kid has any talent for martial dao. If he can get…”

“Our chances should be much higher than those who are not from Dragon Hall, right?”

“Yes, that’s right!”

Qin Fen listened to the whispers of the crowd and began to consider scheduling out time in the future to guide the descendants of these people or simply ask Kyokushin Genichi to stay in Dragon Hall.

“Master, I defeated the nine-star full-strength Mark Zeus when I was an eight-star not long ago.” Ma Jun Tie was excited, “These days, Uncle Bai often practiced with me. Mistress Asura promised to take me for special training by the time I entered the ten-star level. She told me that your strength rocketed after the special training.”

Mark Zeus? Qin Fen smiled bitterly to himself. He was once my opponent in the Recruit Tournament, but now he couldn’t even win my disciple. Life is sometimes full of various surprises. I’m not sure how Mark will think about this.

Asura? Special training? Qin Fen looked at Ma Jun Tie’s excited face, and he silently mourned for his disciple. This kid looks so happy, thinking that the special training will be something enjoyable, or something like the general special training. He will be crying when the real special training begins. I think it’ll be hard to see such an excited expression on his face again by that time…

“That’s good, keep it up.” Qin Fen patted Ma Jun Tie’s shoulder and encouraged him softly, “You can also try and go for the Ensemble of Heroes by that time.”

The Ensemble of Heroes was a grand event that not only martial dao masters and above participated in, it was also a grand event that any martial artists could sign up for.

Many people who were at the bottleneck of their martial dao could use this event to gain experience through battling with people of comparable strength. Some people were seen by organizations at this event and got themselves a nice job. Some people were seen and taken in as disciples by some powerful martial artists because of their performance at this grand event.

In short, the Ensemble of Heroes had always been a grand event for the entire Federation. It was a place that created countless miracles, and a grand event where one could meet divine beast martial artists up close.

“Ensemble of Heroes?” Ma Jun Tie’s eyes sparkled with excitement, he got the same look as Qin Fen when he first learned about the Ensemble of Heroes a few years ago, “Master, can I go too?”

“No harm in giving it a try.” Qin Fen patted Ma Jun Tie’s shoulder, “If everything goes smoothly, I will participate in it as well. Come, let me check your practice on Eighteen Pile Inborn Movement.”

Both the master and the disciple began their practices in the conference room despite the setting. Zhang Xiangyang looked at these two after he had finished his work and he laughed softly. Somehow, Qin Fen was really crazy about martial arts. Perhaps it was because of how deeply the martial dao was carved in him that he could have such achievements today.

After Qin Fen guided Ma Jun Tie in the Eighteen Pile Inborn Movement, he went to the nine-star battlefield in the Sky Battle Net with him. He hid his ID to watch several of Ma Jun Tie’s battles and felt that he had made the right decision to take him in as his disciple.

Ma Jun Tie not only had the strength of a nine-star, he also dared to fight and was very flexible with his movements. He was gradually forming his own martial dao style. Furthermore, he insisted on fighting multiple opponents by himself in each battle. It would always be group battles of one to two, one to three or one to four.

In the words of Ma Jun Tie, “Master likes group battles the most. As your disciple, I can’t do too badly with this.”

Qin Fen also explained to Ma Jun Tie the Reborn of Blood Transfusion stage in detail as he reached the peak of nine-star, and that he must contact him after he reached the fourteen-star and gain ultimate control of his true energy oscillation. After explaining that, he logged out of the Sky Battle Net.

Qin Fen had confidence in Ma Jun Tie that he would reach the fourteen-star. This young man had a fine martial sense, it was definitely possible for him as long as nothing went wrong.

Logging out of the Sky Battle Net, Qin Fen informed Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota about what had happened in the Battle Net, and then he chose to enter a state of meditation.

Qin Fen had gone through a lot from the battle in the stadium concert. Terrorist King’s special fist style and his martial dao that elevated all the fear in the world; Ya Fei and Ya Xin sisters’ musical roar during the peak of the battle; the moving moment when everyone screamed along with the music. All and all had ignited his blood and his soul at that instant. His fist technique was very different from how it was usually.

Moreover, there was the blow from Tagatha! He was a martial artist with the Celestial Aura Shield. It was the first time Qin Fen met a martial artist with the Celestial Aura Shield since his debut. The Ten Thousand Buddha Greeting style at that time meant so much to him.

These were experiences that could only come by chance. Qin Fen was completely immersed in his own world as his chest moved up and down slowly.

Almost at the same time, the martial dao masters in the base entered a state of meditation for cultivation. The battle in the stadium was a critical experience for Qin Fen, who was the direct participant of the battle, and for other martial artists who had watched the battle.

This battle was helpful not only to the martial artists who were there to watch it, but also to the martial dao masters who watched it through the live broadcast.

At this moment, almost all the martial dao masters and the people above had chosen to enter meditation. Such martial dao feast was previously only available at the Ensemble of Heroes. Nobody expected to see such a wonderful battle at a concert.

Three days later, Xue Tian came back to the Saturn’s military base badly injured and with a broken sword.

No one asked Xue Tian about what he did. However, everyone knew how serious the matter was just by looking at his serious injuries and the fact that he didn’t even manage to start his biochemical beast as he rushed back to the base.

One day later, a colonel who was temporarily in charge of the base got a message. Guanyin from the Elysium was attacked by an unknown person and was seriously injured, so she needed to seclude herself for recovery.

Guanyin was badly injured? The colonel suddenly thought of Xue Tian who had also secluded himself to recover from some serious injuries. He secretly guessed that it could have been done by this lazy yet strong soldier.

Not long after, the colonel received a report from the person he sent out. When Xue Tian returned to the base on that day, he had mentioned a coordinate. He was saying that the thing was too heavy, and that physical labor was not suitable for someone as artistic and handsome as him. So he requested personnel to be sent there to pull something back.

Now that the thing had been pulled back, the colonel looked at this huge iron thing in front of him, wondering what it was. This thing looked like a sniper rifle but it was not a sniper rifle, it also looked like a gun but it was not a gun too. He wondered why it was taken away by Lin Ling who had rushed over here.

The colonel couldn’t understand the reason why Lin Ling, who never had any expression, had her eyes sparkle a little as she looked at this big iron.

One week later, Qin Fen slowly opened his eyes and felt more hungry than ever before. Martial dao grandmasters were also human, not a practicing god who could fast forever.

Looking at Chen Feiyu in front of him, Qin Fen held his hungry stomach and asked, “Anything?”

“Let’s eat first.” Chen Feiyu pushed the door and walked out of the room.

“Something about the insect warrior?” Qin Fen walked side by side with Chen Feiyu. He looked at this martial artist who usually only focused on practice and battle, and had never taken the initiative to meet him. Instantly, he thought of the possibility of insect warriors.

“Yeah.” Chen Feiyu pushed open the canteen’s door and made a gesture of ordering a nutritious meal. He said as he sat down, “Lu Dongbin gave us a coordinate. He told us that it is the base of insect warriors. Also, Xue Tian went to steal ‘God Killer’ and happened to meet Guanyin there. The two of them battled each other. Both of them were seriously injured and went into seclusion after that.”

He fought Guanyin? Qin Fen raised his eyebrows surprisingly. Guanyin is the second strongest person after Buddha in Elysium. Did Xue Tian undergo miracles these days too? Otherwise, no matter how genius he is, this improvement in strength is indeed too astonishing! I wonder what miracle he underwent?

“The insect warrior…” Qin Fen suddenly frowned, widened his eyes, and looked at the nutritious meal on the table. He almost lost it and gaped, ready to throw the nutritious meal out. It has really been a long, long time since I last ‘enjoyed’ such disgusting food!

“This nutritious meal…” Qin Fen looked at the chef who was cooking and asked, “Who is your master?”

“Mr. Enzo Rota.” The chef answered with a proud look on his face.

Qin Fen looked at the chef very seriously and said, “Thank you.”

The chef was a little surprised. This Lieutenant Colonel Qin from the base didn’t puke? Even Colonel Yang Lie couldn’t hold back and had instantly puked. Xue Tian was even shouting that this meal was not edible for humans. Even the toughest Du Peng and Mourad were so close to crying because the food tasted so bad. Lieutenant Colonel Qin just frowned and that was all? Also, why did he say thank you?

Qin Fen carefully put a spoonful of the nutritious meal into his mouth, closed his eyes, and relished the unpalatable taste. Everything that happened in the recruit camp flashed in his mind. Squad Leader Hao’s smirk, Butcher’s sharp eyes, Gun King with a bad temper who always swore, Squadron Leader Trash’s perverted acts and…

This unpalatable taste turned exceptionally delicious under the seasoning of memories.

Chef saw that Qin Fen’s eyes were a little moist, and he was secretly smug. It seems that Lieutenant Colonel Qin can’t stand this taste too.

“It’s delicious…” Qin Fen gorged on the rest of the food until there was nothing left and ate like the food was so delicious. The chef was dazed. Qin Fen looked up and said, “It’s just slightly worse than the fat chef. You have to keep up with the good work.”
