Chapter 1 Unexpected Surprise

Zhao Jianhua's expectant gaze made Chen Wu feel awkward.

Previously, Chen Wu hadn't been able to fully grasp Shi Feng's strength. He only felt that he might have reached that realm, but now that he had truly seen it, he was only astonished.

He couldn't imagine that a young man in his early twenties could have such a profound understanding of martial arts.

If it was just an understanding of martial arts that had reached perfection, something easily achieved, Chen Wu could still classify Shi Feng as a genius. However, to use moves so flawlessly, as if they were alive and possessed of their own spirit, wasn't something that could be achieved through understanding alone. It required a large amount of actual combat and countless life-and-death experiences.

Even he had only recently reached this level, but he was already forty-five years old. Since his debut at the age of sixteen, he had fought in hundreds of battles, and had been baptized on the battlefield several times before reaching his current level.

Chen Wu found it hard to believe that Shi Feng would have so much practical experience. Even if he had been in life-and-death battles since he was in his mother's womb, it was impossible to reach this level in his twenties.

"Because he is no longer bound by fixed moves, it's hard for me to judge. However, to have such cultivation at such a young age, I'm afraid there isn't another like him in the entire Jin Hai City," Chen Wu said with a smile, sighing with emotion.

"Really? Isn't that too high of a praise, Master Chen?" Zhao Jianhua asked, surprised.

"No, my evaluation is not high at all. Although Shi Feng's physique is a little lacking, in terms of strength alone, he would have no problem competing for the top ten in the provincial fighting competition," Chen Wu said, shaking his head.

Chen Wu's words immediately shocked Xu Wenqing and Zhao Jianhua slightly.

If the number one fighting champion in Jin Hai City was a top expert in Jin Hai City, then that wouldn't be considered much at the provincial level. After all, a province had dozens of cities, and it was extremely difficult to get into the top thirty, let alone the top ten.

However, Chen Wu, a master of martial arts, said it with certainty, which couldn't help but make everyone take it seriously.

Chen Wu had won the top three in the province, and he was very clear about the provincial fighting competition. If Chen Wu said so, it proved that Shi Feng really had the strength to get into the top ten in the province.

A province had hundreds of millions of people, and there were hundreds of thousands of contestants participating in fighting. To be in the top ten among hundreds of thousands of contestants, that achievement was far more significant than being the number one in Jin Hai City.

Fighting geniuses like Zhang Luowei were only favored by Zhao Jianhua and Xu Wenqing, and were completely treated as juniors. However, Shi Feng's strength had already made them attach importance to him, or rather, treat him as an equal.

"This kid Shi Feng is really not simple. He has such strength but doesn't show it. No wonder Ruoxi thinks so highly of him." Zhao Jianhua looked at Shi Feng again, and there was no longer the anger and contempt he had before, but a bit more appreciation. Then, he glanced at Lin Feilong beside him and said angrily in his heart, "This kid really dares to use me as a weapon. It seems that I have to teach him a lesson."

He had previously favored Lin Feilong, and he was also very clear about Lin Feilong's pursuit of Zhao Ruoxi, but he did not stop it, because Lin Feilong was indeed excellent and qualified to pursue Zhao Ruoxi. However, now Zhao Jianhua hated Lin Feilong very much.

Even if he was stupid, he could see that Lin Feilong had been using him all along. Before, he said how bad Shi Feng was, how bad his family was, that he pestered Ruoxi, and was often bullied, and was extremely mediocre, which made him feel that Shi Feng was not suitable, so he stepped in to stop him. But now it seemed that this was not the case at all.

It was completely because Lin Feilong couldn't compare to Shi Feng and wanted to slander Shi Feng, so he came to him and said these things.

Being ranked ninth in the entire school was very glorious in Jin Hai University, but what about the Jin Hai City Fighting Competition? He was just a rookie player. There were hundreds of such rookie players every year. If they were placed in the province, they might not even be able to find a shadow.

It could be said that Lin Feilong and Shi Feng were completely the difference between heaven and earth.

"It seems that my vision is really not good. As Mr. Xu said, let the young people solve their own problems." Zhao Jianhua no longer planned to stop Shi Feng and Zhao Ruoxi's affairs, and planned to let things take their course. As for the final result, it still depended on Ruoxi herself.

As the martial arts competition ended, Shi Feng also became the absolute protagonist of this get-together. Many students in the school came over one after another, wanting to deepen their relationship with Shi Feng. On the other hand, Zhang Luowei had clearly passed out, but no one cared about him, including Lan Hailong, his partner.

Although Shi Feng had long known Lan Hailong's nature, he still felt唏嘘(xīxū) after seeing this scene.

This was the coldness of human relationships.

However, Shi Feng would not sympathize with Zhang Luowei, because Zhang Luowei was also such a person. In his previous life, Shadow had recruited many potential newcomers, and was about to prosper and enter a period of rapid development. He didn't know why Zhang Luowei suddenly launched an attack, and then Zhang Luowei broke up with Lan Hailong, took away many experts, and joined the Xiongba Tianxia at that time, which greatly damaged Shadow's vitality. Otherwise, Shadow would not have stopped at being a third-rate guild. It was not until he took over that it gradually developed into a top second-rate guild.

And this life was completely different. Originally, Shi Feng planned to spend a lot of money to compete with the Shadow Guild for talents, but now it seemed that it was completely unnecessary.

Zhang Luowei's defeat greatly reduced the status of the Shadow Guild in everyone's mind. On the other hand, Shi Feng's Zero Wing Guild became the only goal in everyone's mind. Lan Hailong was so angry that his teeth itched, but he couldn't do anything about it.

If Lan Hailong had known that Shi Feng was so powerful, he would never have agreed to let Zhang Luowei compete with Shi Feng. This way, he could still have been able to unearth many potential newcomers or experts, but now there was no competitiveness at all, and he could only pick some leftovers from the Zero Wing Guild.

"Student Shi Feng, do you think I can join the Zero Wing Guild, even if it's just a guild member?"

"Hello, I am Ye Wumian, the president of the Qingye, the number one studio in Jin Hai City. I want to merge the entire studio into the Zero Wing Guild. I don't know if Brother Shi Feng is willing to accept it. We don't want much, just ten official member spots and fifty peripheral member spots."

Just as Shi Feng began to recruit people, elite students from various schools surrounded him, and there were also many studios and fighting players. What surprised Shi Feng the most was the joining of Qingye Studio. In his previous life, Qingye Studio completely ignored Shadow's recruitment. Instead, it established a guild, and finally pulled in the sponsorship and support of several groups, and also developed into a third-rate guild in God's Domain.

At that time, if it wasn't for the limited funds and the increasing number of guilds established in Jin Hai City, with investment being scattered, Qingye Guild would have been Shadow's biggest competitor.

In addition, Shi Feng also finally found the Five Demon Generals of Shadow.

Until the end of the get-together, Shi Feng couldn't imagine that the quota set before was not enough at all. Instead, there were more than a hundred more people. There were more than fifty experts who could be foreseen in the future, nine top experts, five of whom were the Five Demon Generals, and the other four were the core members of Qingye Studio.

Because of recruiting these people, Zero Wing Studio suddenly became a behemoth in the virtual game world of Jin Hai City. Its foundation was much stronger than many third-rate guilds, and the total number of members reached more than 500. As long as these more than 500 people were completely transformed into the backbone of the Zero Wing Guild, Shi Feng would not be afraid even if he went to war with second-rate guilds.

Afterwards, Shi Feng spent a whole day finally getting the contracts of these people done.

As for the management problems of Zero Wing Studio, Heizi had already arranged them. Moreover, many of these people were originally from the studio, and they would soon be able to adapt. In addition, they could bring a lot of management help. However, Heizi was shocked when he saw that Shi Feng had brought in so many people at once.

The more than 400 newly recruited people instantly filled the Zero Wing's work space, and the entire studio became lively. Everything was in order, and it was no longer like before when there were only a few people, empty, and always inconsistent with such a large studio.

It wasn't until night that Shi Feng returned home, casually ate dinner, drank a bottle of nutrient potion, and started a new day in God's Domain.

And this new day was destined to be anything but ordinary.
