Chapter 366

Imperial Capital, Blue Star Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion Headquarters.

In a large conference room among the upper echelons, it is usually only opened for important matters.

The center of the conference room is a circular tabletop made of special black alloy.

Out of more than twenty seats, 19 are already occupied.

In four other positions, what sits there is not a physical body, but a 3D projection.

Everyone present is middle-aged, and both men and women radiate a formidable aura; the aura fills the air, and a sense of oppression looms over those with weaker strength.

Everyone present is a High Realm martial artist, and they are moving further toward extraordinary transformation, in terms of their life level.

Meng Wu, who has a burly build and muscles like refined steel, has sharp eyes, and his whole body seems to contain explosive power.

His Martial Path realm is as high as the peak of the Eighth Realm.

In the entire Xia Guo, apart from the Ninth Realm, he is among the strongest small group of people.

He is one of the people closest to the peak of the pyramid in the Xia Guo, and even on Blue Star!

At the same time, he is the Southern Inspector, possessing the power to supervise the various provinces in the south; he has both power and strength.

He is a true big shot of the Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion and a high-level official of the Xia Guo.

At every high-level meeting, he always sits right in the middle.

But today, he did not sit in the main seat, but instead gave it up.

An invisible sense of oppression looms over him, and he himself does not have his usual air of superiority.

Likewise, there are several other auras in the air that are not weak; they are all Eighth Realm martial artists.

And beside him sits a tall, upright middle-aged man with firm facial features that look as if they were carved by a knife and axe.

He has a head of white hair, and his entire aura is tough; before everyone's eyes, it is as if they are facing something as heavy and vast as the Great Wall.

Under his formidable aura, even an Eighth Realm peak martial artist like Meng Wu is firmly suppressed.

This is a suppression of life level.

Meng Wu looks at the other person and smiles:

"Mansion Master, it's getting late, the meeting should begin!"

Not far away, the projected Special Envoy Qin, who has exquisite features and a cold temperament, also slowly speaks:

"Deputy Mansion Master Li, let's start the meeting!"

"Good!"

Li Qifeng, one of the Deputy Mansion Masters of the Imperial Capital Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion Headquarters, the current principal of the Firmament Martial Arts University, and a Ninth Realm title-level martial artist, nods and says.

He looks around the circle; everyone present is a high-level official of the Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion.

Among them are several branch mansion masters from large cities, all of whom are Eighth Realm martial artists.

"I will speak about three things."

"The first thing: due to the increasingly severe situation on Blue Star in recent years, the situation of disaster beast invasions is becoming more and more serious."

"Now, there is even a situation in Beijiang Province where six Level Nine disaster beasts have launched an ultra-large disaster beast tide."

"Thanks to the Beijiang Sword King successfully advancing to the Ninth Realm, Beijiang Province was able to avoid more casualties."

"Under such circumstances, our Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion needs to unearth more geniuses."

"I must emphasize the principle of our Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion: fairness and justice!"

"Regarding Zhang Tai's matter, I hope it will not happen again."

"Once the principles are violated, don't blame us for not being polite."

After Li Qifeng finishes speaking, a terrifying pressure erupts from his body.

Meng Wu feels that even breathing has become difficult, and beads of sweat involuntarily appear on his forehead.

He suspects that the other person is targeting him.

"The second thing: after joint discussions and decisions by the General Mansion Master and the two top martial arts mansions, Chongming and Heiyao, starting from today, the signing amounts for all signed geniuses will be adjusted upward."

"D-level contracts will be adjusted from 500,000 Xia Guo coins per year to 1 million, with resources doubled."

"C-level contracts will be adjusted from 1 million per year to 2 million, with resources doubled!"

"B-level contracts will be increased from 3 million to 5 million..."

"A-level contracts will be increased from 5 million to 10 million..."

While speaking, a large amount of data files are projected in the center of the conference table, showing how much change there is for each level of contract.

Upon hearing this, everyone nods one after another.

The cash and resources for each contract have almost doubled; it seems the upper echelons also intend to increase the cultivation efforts for geniuses. Now the situation is severe, and the demand for geniuses has also become higher!

With the increase in signing money and resources, the strength of geniuses can also be improved, allowing them to lay a deeper foundation.

For ordinary people, this is simply great news.

But for the martial arts mansion, the money and resources that need to be paid out are even more.

But given the current environment, spending a little more money is truly normal.

So they glance at each other; this decision is indeed not bad.

After everyone discusses for a while, Li Qifeng continues:

"The third thing, which is also the last thing."

"Regarding the proposal to upgrade student Lin Qi, a freshman of the Firmament Six Academies at Firmament Shanyu Wuda, to an SS-level genius."

As soon as these words are spoken, the entire conference table falls silent.

"As the principal of Firmament Shanyu Wuda, many leaders have reported this matter to me."

"A genius who has not yet awakened, yet is able to master a minor divine ability."

!

"In the Global Freshman Competition, under the gaze of millions of viewers, he successively defeated SS-level geniuses and took the final championship."

"He broke the record in the history of the Global Freshman Competition, becoming the first unawakened genius to achieve this."

After hearing this, everyone cannot help but nod!

They are also seeing such a genius for the first time.

Li Xiao continues:

"So today, I just want to ask for everyone's opinion."

"Should we set a precedent and let Lin Qi become the first unawakened SS-level genius?"

"Everyone, speak your mind and express your thoughts!"

"I agree!"

A man projected virtually in the corner speaks up.

"It's Wu Lingyun from the Cang Province Tianhai Branch!"

"State your view!" Li Xiao says calmly.

Wu Lingyun remains calm and composed, and he slowly speaks:

"Although Lin Qi has not awakened!"

"However, the fact that he can defeat SS-level geniuses is enough to prove that his cultivation talent and comprehension are stronger than theirs."

"And everyone should know that he doesn't have the conditions of other SS-level geniuses?"

"He can completely wait until the Seventh Realm to awaken a special ability, and coupled with his talent, he won't be any worse than other SS-level geniuses."

Other high-level officials also nod after hearing this; it is reasonable and well-founded.

After Wu Lingyun finishes speaking, he also sighs in his heart.

He went to another world once, and upon returning, he discovered that a top-tier genius had emerged from his martial arts mansion.

No matter what, he must help him.

"I disagree!"

Just at this moment, Meng Wu suddenly speaks up.

"State your view!"

Li Xiao's expression is calm; one cannot tell his specific emotions.

Meng Wu organizes his words and says:

"The quota for SS-level geniuses in our country is very precious, and every one of them is a top-tier awakened genius."

"At the moment of awakening, the path they are to take in the future is already determined and clear."

"Their paths are clear, so there is no need to worry about taking the wrong path!"

"They have unique advantages when comprehending artistic conceptions or even domains."

"Everyone present is an awakened genius, so you know this point better than anyone."
