Chapter 166: Four Hundred Billion Burned in One Hour, Liu Qingtian's Worry!

Not long after the Junbu Zhanshi at the city gates were shocked, the entire population of Jiangcheng was shocked!

At first, it was because the teams from various cities escorting Spirit Stones were too extravagant!

And it was daytime.

There were many pedestrians on the road.

Seeing such a luxurious lineup from afar, they couldn't help but log into the Martial Artist Association app forum.

"Shock! I just saw people from Haicheng pulling several trucks into Jiangcheng!

The ones leading them were the Grand Commanders of the Military Department from those two cities, genuine Sixth-Grade Grandmaster Realm powerhouses!"

This was the first post to appear on the forum.

"Not just Haicheng, there's also Liucheng, Changcheng... almost every city in Jiangnan Prefecture has sent teams to Jiangcheng!

And the leaders are all genuine Sixth-Grade Grandmaster Realm powerhouses!"

"To the person above, remove the 'almost'. I just asked a relative in the Military Department; it's that all cities have sent people to Jiangcheng! It's just that the closest cities sent people last night!"

"How could so many powerhouses come to our Jiangcheng? Did something big happen?"

This was the initial content in the comment section.

At first, only those who saw the luxurious teams were discussing it in the forum.

As the popularity of the post increased.

More people joined in!

Comments continued to increase, and in a very short time, it triggered huge popularity!

"I am a Fourth Grade Martial Artist, and a Forging Master, the kind that specializes in crafting War Soldiers. I just brushed past a team and discovered they were escorting Spirit Stones, the kind that are needed for both crafting War Soldiers and refining Pills, and are worth a fortune!!"

And when someone judged based on experience that all eight directions were transporting Spirit Stones.

"Shock! What exactly happened! Why is every city in Jiangnan Prefecture suddenly sending people to send us Spirit Stones!?"

"Why do I feel like this has something to do with White God...

After all, White God just took first place in the Ladder Tournament..."

Especially since some people, like Huang Weiguo, subconsciously felt it had something to do with Ye Bai and mentioned the two words "White God".

"Point taken, I also think it's because of White God!"

"If you can't think of a reason, just assume White God did it; that's definitely correct!"

"In the past month, how many shocking things has White God done? Doing one more is normal, right?"

The popularity of this event completely exploded!

"Wait, I just remembered, White God apparently received a supreme treasure reward in the Ladder Tournament that can upgrade talents..."

"Do you think it's because that supreme treasure needs to continuously consume Spirit Stones while upgrading the talent?

And the Spirit Stones prepared by the higher-ups weren't enough, and White God couldn't stop halfway through the talent upgrade, so they had so many Grandmaster Realm powerhouses personally escort them to deliver the Spirit Stones as fast as possible?"

The explosion in popularity also meant that the number of people participating in the discussion continued to skyrocket.

And very quickly, someone guessed the truth!

"That's unlikely, even if the supreme treasure for upgrading talents needs to consume Spirit Stones, this amount is too large..."

"Exactly, exactly, White God only has Grade A Talent!"

"What kind of Grade A Talent needs the entire Jiangnan Prefecture to pool resources to upgrade?"

"Haha, are you trying to say that White God actually has S-level Talent, or the kind where the highest talent level is only S-level? Stop joking, White God is a monster because he cultivates both mind and martial arts, and he has so many high-level proficiency Martial Techniques that it makes one's scalp tingle!"

At first, most people didn't believe this speculation.

But when the first team escorting Spirit Stones finally stopped at Wangyue Star Mansion...

"Shock! Shock! Shock!"

"White God lives at Wangyue Star Mansion, Wangxing Pavilion No. 38! This big event is definitely because of White God! Because White God is using a supreme treasure to upgrade his talent!"

"My goodness, what level of talent does White God actually have?!"

"The entire Jiangnan Prefecture is running over to send Spirit Stones because he's upgrading!"

Everyone was shocked and boiling over!

"No matter what level of talent White God has, I only know that White God is awesome!"

"White God is awesome +1!"

"+!"

…

The comment section was once again conquered by "White God is awesome!"

……

Not long after.

Back at Wangxing Pavilion No. 38.

"Hiss! It actually really consumes 40,000 Merit Points worth of Spirit Stones in one hour!"

"Fortunately, fortunately I had Big Brother send over all the Spirit Stones from Jiangnan Prefecture in advance!"

Sima Cheng looked at the Spirit Stone reserves of the two cities that had already been exhausted, his mood still shocked.

Heaven-defying, too heaven-defying!

One hour requires 40,000 Merit Points! Comparable to the total consumption of Li Qingqing's Double S-Grade Talent!

He didn't even dare to imagine what level of talent Ye Bai originally had.

And what level it would be after a successful upgrade!

"Officer Sima, and Qingqing, what exactly is going on?!"

But it was also at this moment that Liu Qingtian arrived at Wangxing Pavilion No. 38.

After the Ladder Tournament ended yesterday, he went into the Dimensional Gate where the City Lord always stays to inform the other party of Ye Bai's existence and the fact that Jiangcheng had taken first place this year.

Upon coming out, he immediately asked which Martial University Ye Bai had ultimately chosen, and whether it was Magic City Martial Arts University.

As a result, he had just learned the answer and hadn't even had time to get angry.

He then learned that starting last night, people had been delivering Spirit Stones in large quantities.

Today, more than a dozen Grandmasters from the entire Jiangnan Prefecture personally escorted Spirit Stones over!

And it was all because of Ye Bai!

"Director Liu, your Jiangcheng has produced a hidden dragon today..." Sima Cheng smiled slightly and told Liu Qingtian the sequence of events.

"Before the upgrade, it was an SSSS-ji talent that rivaled the Four Saints and could be rated as a Half-Step Emperor-Grade Prodigy..."

"After the upgrade, it is even more terrifying, a talent that surpasses SSSS-ji and can be rated as an unprecedented Emperor-level Prodigy based on talent alone..."

Liu Qingtian learned the details.

It would be impossible to say he wasn't shocked.

"Things have taken a turn for the worse..."

However, immediately afterward, Liu Qingtian's expression turned ugly.

"Hm? Director Liu, your reaction isn't right, is it?

Ye Bai's talent is powerful; shouldn't you be the happiest person?" Sima Cheng asked, puzzled.

"Officer Sima, there is something you do not know..."

Liu Qingtian only sighed deeply once more.

Do not forget, Liu Qingtian was the one who first discovered that Ye Sanjian was the mastermind behind Qin Churan's poisoning.

And he had originally thought that Ye Bai's greatest enemy was merely Ye Sanjian.

Even if Ye Sanjian paid a great price to hire Yang Hai, once Ye Bai proved he was a King-level Prodigy, Ye Sanjian would only be able to wait for Ye Bai to graduate from Martial University in four years.

"But even though young friend Ye took first place in the Ladder Tournament, Yang Hai and Magic City Martial Arts University still dare to bully young friend Ye!"

"Although Teacher Xi Qian said at the time that it was because Ye Sanjian had stepped into the Half-Step Martial King Realm...

But a Half-Step Martial King is nothing to Magic City Martial Arts University!"

"How could they be willing to ruin the reputation of a century-old Martial University for the sake of one Ye Sanjian!!"

Liu Qingtian realized then that Ye Bai's enemies were not as simple as just Ye Sanjian!

Therefore, when he first learned that Ye Bai had gone to Qingshan Martial Arts University, although he was subconsciously angry, he actually felt it was a good thing.

"But now, young friend Ye has actually used the Mending Heaven Stone to prove that his talent after mutation is ten or a hundred times more powerful than I had originally estimated!

The entire Jiangnan Prefecture Military Department has sent him Spirit Stones because of this!"

"Everyone in Jiangcheng has even guessed that Ye Bai is upgrading his talent!"

"If Ye Sanjian, and especially the people behind Ye Sanjian, find out about this...

Even if young friend Ye went to Qingshan Martial Arts University, I fear his life will not be secure!!"
