From Mortal Body to Immortality

Zhao Jia stopped crying and shouting, only kneeling blankly in front of Zhao Tianxing, his expression somewhat dazed.

“This is some recent information about Lu Sheng. You should take a good look at it later.”

“There's only a month left until your final exams. Besides Mu Bing, Lu Sheng is also your most powerful competitor.”

“Whether or not you can change Father's mind depends on the final exams in a month.”

“I've helped you as much as I can, but in the end, it still depends on you. If you still can't get the qualifications for the Apocalypse Training Camp, even I won't be able to stop Father from pushing you out to apologize to Lu Sheng!”

Zhao Tianxing watched Zhao Jia's departing back, his deep eyes becoming even colder.

“Heh!”

Zhao Tianxing suddenly sneered, and his whole body leaned back on the sofa.

“Giving you this chance is already the best I can do. Whether you can seize it or not depends on you!”

As he spoke, Zhao Tianxing slowly closed his eyes.

He was a very pragmatic person. He extremely agreed with the law of the jungle in the Human Federation's understanding of the universe, but…

In Zhao Tianxing's view, the final victor in the law of the jungle was not necessarily a race, but possibly a single individual.

Just like that powerful galactic life form.

And he, Zhao Tianxing… might not be able to become that unique individual!

This time, helping Zhao Jia could be considered as doing everything a brother should do. The rest was up to fate.

Perhaps…

After severing the last trace of brotherly affection, he would be able to better carry out the ascension ceremony.

… …

Underground Arena.

Lu Sheng threw a punch, defeating a challenger.

Standing in the center of the arena, surrounded by the revelry of countless spectators and gamblers.

The host's high-pitched voice announced that this new king had solidified his position.

In a luxurious room, Plum Blossom rested her chin on one hand, looking at Lu Sheng below, lost in thought.

“This won't do. If this guy continues like this, how will I make money from this underground arena? Qi and Blood Visage plus Lu Sheng's performance, anyone who isn't stupid will bet on Lu Sheng to win. Even if the odds are low, I'll still lose money. The house won't even make a profit…”

Plum Blossom's voice was quite helpless. If it were an ordinary person, she would have taken action long ago. After all, ruining someone's wealth is like killing their parents.

Plum Blossom was in charge of the Polaris Black Market, so she was naturally not a good person, but Lu Sheng was standing behind Jiang He, which made Plum Blossom afraid to touch Lu Sheng.

“Fourth-tier martial artists… are all a bunch of lunatics.”

Plum Blossom sighed and said to the outside of the door, “After it's over later, let Lu Sheng come over here. I want… to have a chat with him.”

There was no response from outside the door, only the sound of footsteps gradually moving away.

… …

Lu Sheng returned to the休息室. He had just taken off his mask and glanced at his personal terminal. The Federation points on it had accumulated to more than four million.

Since becoming the arena master, Lu Sheng's subsequent challenges were all rewarded with 600,000 points.

“Four million… If I earn a little more, I'll be able to buy enough third-tier Bone Forging Pills to break through to Bone Forging Perfection!”

A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Sheng's mouth.

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng was about to go back and have a good rest, and by the way, buy some Bone Forging Pills to improve his strength.

However, before Lu Sheng could get up, he saw the girl who had received him before, standing respectfully next to him with a professional smile, and said with a smile, “Mr. Lu, Master Plum Blossom invites you.”

Lu Sheng paused, restrained the expression on his face, and had some vague guesses in his heart. Then he stood up and said calmly, “Lead the way!”

Immediately, Lu Sheng followed the girl to Plum Blossom's room.

Plum Blossom looked at Lu Sheng and opened her mouth with a smile, “To be honest, when Jiang He introduced you to me, I didn't take it seriously, but now it seems… I still underestimated you.”

“A martial artist who has mastered Qi and Blood Visage… No wonder Jiang He would lower his face and ask me for help.”

“But… now you have somewhat disrupted the balance of the underground arena.”

As Plum Blossom spoke, she looked at Lu Sheng, but saw Lu Sheng's incomparably calm face.

“So, what does Master Plum Blossom want me to do?”

“Smart man!”

Plum Blossom smiled slightly, and her eyes showed more appreciation for Lu Sheng: “To be honest, the second-tier arena is no longer of any use to you. In that case, why not a win-win situation?”

“You mean…”

Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes and stared directly at Plum Blossom.

“Fix the fight!”

Plum Blossom opened her mouth without hesitation.

“Help me fix a fight, cancel your status as the arena master, and from then on, you and my underground arena will have nothing to do with each other. Afterwards, I will give you six million Federation points as compensation, and our relationship… will be cleared up.”

“How is it?”

“Okay!”

What made Plum Blossom a little surprised was that Lu Sheng actually agreed in an instant, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became even stronger for a while.

“I'm starting to appreciate you more and more now, so let's not waste any time. I'll arrange one for you right away, how about it?”

Lu Sheng nodded.

Lu Sheng didn't have any psychological burden for fixing matches. Making money is not shameful.

He came to the underground arena to hone his combat experience and make money by fighting in the arena to obtain cultivation resources.

Now that the second-tier arena is no longer of much use to him, why not agree to Plum Blossom's request and earn six million Federation points.

These six million, plus the four million that Lu Sheng had accumulated before, were enough for Lu Sheng to break through to Bone Forging Perfection!

Afterwards, under Plum Blossom's arrangement, Lu Sheng fought against a challenger, and in the end, Lu Sheng was “accidentally” defeated. So far, a new arena master of the underground arena was born.

Holding the six million Federation points given by Plum Blossom, Lu Sheng walked out of the underground arena.

Behind him was the dark alley, and in front of Lu Sheng was a street filled with sunshine.

Lu Sheng had a smile on his lips. While purchasing ten Bone Forging Pills on the panel, he walked towards home.

“It's time to break through to Bone Forging Perfection!”
