Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along
Chapter 640 - 197: License
If the current strength of Zhang Lingfeng wasn’t gained through the sacrifice of Fu Shanhai, and he had the cultivation talent of Hao Yuchen, Wu Zheng would have forcibly coerced Wu Chengfeng and Zhang Lingfeng to resolve their differences, and tried to win over Zhang Lingfeng to serve the Wu Family.
But since the strength was acquired through sacrifice, even if it surpassed Hao Yuchen at the same age, it amounts to nothing.
It could be foreseen that Zhang Lingfeng’s future achievements, even if they could surpass Fu Shanhai, would not be in terms of cultivation.
It should be in the achievements in telekinesis.
In the Ancient Blue Star division, although there are Talisman Masters, Artifact Refiners, and even Alchemists, the leaders of these three professions do not bear the surname Fu.
In Wu Zheng’s mind, Fu Shanhai was willing to pay the hefty price mainly because he wanted a member of the Fu Family to become a champion of the three major professions.
Even if they couldn’t return to Titan Star, as long as a Talisman Master, Alchemist, or Artifact Refiner emerged from the Fu Family, the entire family’s resource subsidy would rise a notch.
And as he knew, there was a super divine mind master in the Fu Family named Fu Rong with good potential.
Fu Rong follows an Artifact Refiner named Master Yan for cultivation.
He found it puzzling why Fu Shanhai did not sacrifice cultivation and life force for Fu Rong and instead chose an outsider Zhang Lingfeng.
Now it seems that Zhang Lingfeng must have something of value.
It’s just a pity he shouldn’t have offended the Wu Family, competing against Wu Chengfeng for resources, letting Wu Chengfeng make a futile trip.
"Ensure he fails the assessment and doesn’t get the license!"
Wu Chengfeng gritted his teeth and said.
As long as Zhang Lingfeng doesn’t obtain the Alliance License, even if he’s still a focus of the Alliance, he won’t be one of them.
The resources and subsidies he enjoys will differ vastly.
Thus, they could hinder Zhang Lingfeng’s growth and deal with him personally in the future, getting their satisfaction.
"Doing this is equivalent to cutting off the Fu Family’s path to rise and also ruining Zhang Lingfeng’s prospects."
Wu Zheng said.
He understood that becoming a member of the Alliance and becoming a Star Gate disciple are two different concepts.
Becoming a Star Gate disciple, while one can obtain Star Gate’s cultivation secret techniques and resource subsidies, the resources first go to the Star Gate collective.
Whereas if one becomes a member of the Alliance, the Star Gate can’t take a share of the resources.
When encountering trouble, one could directly receive the assistance of the Alliance.
It’s akin to having a more secure backup.
This might also be why Fu Shanhai chose to sacrifice for Zhang Lingfeng instead of Fu Rong, because with Fu Rong’s age, even with the sacrifice, getting the Alliance’s attention would be very difficult.
In contrast, Zhang Lingfeng, who isn’t even twenty and has become a super divine mind master, even if his strength was earned through sacrifice, could instantly catch the Alliance’s attention. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Perhaps at this moment, the Fu Family is eagerly awaiting, hoping Zhang Lingfeng obtains an Alliance License to help the Fu Family and himself gain more resource subsidies.
But since things have come to this, since Zhang Lingfeng holds no value, and has clashed with the Wu Family, intending also to give him a lesson, if they consider face and act lenient at this time, the other party might not be grateful in the future and might even cause more trouble.
So, after some consideration, Wu Zheng nodded, "Alright, do as you said!"
"Thank you, brother!"
Wu Chengfeng rejoiced, admiring Wu Zheng’s ability to weigh interests, maintaining calm at any moment, and making the most correct choices.
