Chapter 111

Zhong Jianyuan brought Ning An to a hotel suite.

It was located in a relatively central area of Shucheng.

It went without saying that this suite was not as simple as one might imagine.

Ning An could clearly perceive that the closer one was to the center, the higher the concentration of spiritual energy.

It was several times higher than the spiritual energy at the Qingshan Base, and even higher than the concentration in Nanjiang.

Furthermore, the entrance to the Myriad Races Battlefield, where the Shucheng Base was located, was situated at the very center.

It was clearly not a coincidence, but intentional!

Once a problem arose in the Myriad Races Battlefield, the entire Shucheng Base would become a containment zone.

Besides that, on the way from the airport to the hotel,

Ning An could feel that the number of martial artists was unusually high.

He could even occasionally detect the aura of mid-grade martial artists.

"Shucheng is indeed in a league of its own in the entire Southwest region!"

Even Ning An could not help but silently sigh to himself.

One had to know that neither the number nor the quality of these martial artists could be compared to Nanjiang.

As for the Qingshan Base and the like, there was even less need to mention them.

After dropping off some luggage, the family began to go out and tour the Shucheng Base.

Zhong Jianyuan, this fourth-grade martial artist, acted just like a tour guide.

He led Ning An's family around to play without the slightest dissatisfaction.

In fact, Ning An did not know!

Zhong Jianyuan had volunteered for this reception mission.

For one thing, he was extremely curious about Ning An.

The reason was simple: he had watched the entire battle between Pei Qingyu and Dai Qing at Shucheng University.

He had watched it from start to finish!

He knew just how powerful this prodigy from the Kyoto Martial Arts University, Pei Qingyu, was.

Watching it in reality versus watching it on video was a completely different feeling.

Many in the Shenxia Federation could see Pei Qingyu's strength, but they did not have nearly as much of an impression.

However, Zhong Jianyuan had experienced it personally, so it was different.

As a genius himself, he was still an extraordinary distance away from prodigies like Pei Qingyu.

Originally, Zhong Jianyuan had believed that Pei Qingyu could sweep through all the sixth-grade martial artists in the Shenxia Federation without issue.

Yet, he had not expected Ning An from Nanjiang to appear out of nowhere.

He had defeated this invincible myth!

This had caused Pei Qingyu to fall into a slump, and when he would be able to regain his confidence remained an unknown.

Moreover, the shock Ning An brought was not just as simple as defeating Pei Qingyu.

This person had also stepped into the high-grade realm in a short period of time.

He had become the focus of attention for the entire Southwest!

Perhaps looking at the entire Shenxia Federation, seventh-grade martial artists were fine.

But when spread out to the Southwest region, the number was not as high as one might imagine.

And now, Ning An had become one of them.

One could imagine the shock Zhong Jianyuan felt.

Of course, the other reason was to maintain some connection with this high-grade prodigy.

Zhong Jianyuan had a premonition that this person would not stop at the seventh grade.

After truly meeting Ning An!

He felt something special from him.

First was the gap in cultivation base, reminding him that this was a dangerous figure.

To put it in one phrase, he was sharp and formidable.

However, since he had just broken through, this was also understandable.

In fact, Ning An was in a state of "Mirror Heart," with his aura overflowing as it combined with the power of heaven and earth.

This caused Ning An to be in a special state.

Zhong Jianyuan soon led Ning An and his party to a shopping mall.

"This is the largest food mall in the Shucheng Base!"

"It has the most complete variety of food."

"There are even snacks from various aspects before the spiritual energy recovery."

Zhong Jianyuan said while introducing it.

It was clear he visited here often!

As soon as Ning Xiaonuan saw so many snacks, she couldn't move her feet.

One had to know that although there were some types of snacks at the Qingshan Base,

there weren't many, and Ning Xiaonuan had long since grown tired of them!

"The snacks here aren't cheap!"

Wen Zhiqiao couldn't help but frown slightly as she spoke.

If one bought a lot, it would even be enough to buy elixirs.

"Things are valuable because they are rare!"

"These items themselves are actually aimed at martial artists."

"Only martial artist families can afford to consume them."

"It's rare to come here, so let Xiaonuan buy a bit more."

Ning An spoke up for his daughter.

Although these things were not cheap, they were nothing to him.

Plus, with martial arts cultivation, there was no need to worry about the negative effects of eating too many snacks.

"You just spoil her!"

Wen Zhiqiao just rolled her eyes at Ning An and said.

Even though Ning An had become a high-grade martial artist, his personality and other aspects had not changed due to the increase in strength.

Naturally, Wen Zhiqiao would not change her attitude toward Ning An just because his strength had changed.

Ning's mother also rarely did not stop her, letting her granddaughter buy things.

After stepping into the Shucheng Base, Ning's mother's eyes were full of nostalgia.

Even though more than thirty years had passed!

The Shucheng Base had actually undergone quite a few changes.

But the familiar feeling still made Ning's mother very nostalgic.

"Jing... Li?!"

Suddenly, an uncertain voice rang out.

This voice made Ning's mother pause.

Because she felt that this voice was somewhat familiar.

She turned her head and saw a woman wearing a cleaning uniform with a face showing many signs of hardship.

Vaguely, Ning's mother couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity.

"Jin... Yan!?"

Ning's mother said, a bit uncertain.

Because it was hard for her to connect the good friend from over thirty years ago with the woman in front of her.

"Jingli, it really is you!"

"I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime."

The woman said, her face full of excitement.
