Chapter 271: The Broad-Minded River of Time

"I’ll take care of the Fighting Rage Ritual," the Star God said firmly. "Fighting God, you should focus on your battles or maybe dive into some psychology books. Expanding your knowledge could really sharpen your thinking."

"Just steer clear of those dubious books, especially the ones on ideological invasion. You don’t want to end up down the wrong path."

"I’m not saying you need to be in combat mode all the time, but try to get a bit closer to it."

When it came to the Fighting Rage Ritual, once it was clear the guy was a spy from the Arrow Realm, there were plenty of ways to quietly take him out. No need to make a public spectacle.

Even if the Fighting Rage Ritual was meant to push Fighting God into killing the God of Martial Arts, if caught, it wouldn’t hurt to leave a little something behind for the fate bearers of Huaxia.

Given the Arrow Realm’s ruthless tactics, they wouldn’t hesitate either.

He felt pretty confident in his counter-strategy skills.

Killing the Fighting Rage Ritual outright seemed like a waste. Now that they were onto him, they could turn the tables.

With the right moves, the payoff could be huge.

"Also, I’ve got a plan for that spiritual bug targeting your yin point," the Star God added, glancing at Fighting God. "With the Demon Witch realm already wiped out by the God of Martial Arts, taking down the Velier and Huahuaz clans is the next logical step."

"Once those two are gone, we’ll run some tests to make sure everything’s clean."

"With the bug master dead, the problem should disappear."

"But just in case they try something desperate, stay on your guard."

"Before you go, I’ll use the Starry Array to shield everyone you’ve been in contact with, at least temporarily."

He paused, then added, "Don’t get all sentimental about your buddies after hearing this."

"Don’t start thinking the Velier and Huahuaz clans are the villains while your two sworn brothers are saints."

"If you tip them off, I’m done helping you. You’ll be on your own."

Fighting God: "……"

Did he really seem that clueless?

Why would the Star God think that of him?

From the moment that spiritual bug was found, the Velier and Huahuaz clans were as good as dead to him.

Betrayal from a friend stung worse than any enemy’s attack.

Even if the Star God didn’t act, once he hit Level Seven or Eight, he’d go after those clans himself.

Of course, to avoid any rash decisions, he’d consult the Star God, God of Theater, and God of Martial Arts first.

If all three agreed, he’d move forward. If not, he’d wait.

But if the Star God wanted to act now and had protective measures ready, he wouldn’t stand in the way.

After all, the Star God’s actions gave him peace of mind.

"I’m almost ready to advance to king level. Should I work hard too?"

The Wind God quietly put away his phone and asked aloud.

The Star God raised an eyebrow and replied, "What else would you do?"

"But after you advance to king level, I have arranged an opportunity for you to showcase your power."

"You will go to the martial arts class at National Defense University and give a lecture on the application of martial arts."

"Of course, the content of the martial arts explanation isn’t important; what matters is that you can impress these future Masters of Martial Arts and powerful beings while they are still weak."

"I have only one request for this task."

"You must make a grand entrance!"

"Your presentation on martial arts must be top-notch!"

"After showcasing your power, you must inspire those people to cultivate and fill them with hope for the future."

"Do you understand?"

The Wind God’s eyes sparkled, and he nodded, saying, "I understand!"

He was aware of the training program proposed by Brother God of Martial Arts.

So, he really liked it!

Just imagine, when future Masters of Martial Arts and powerful beings remember their initial education in the path of cultivation, the first person they think of will be him. How great would that feel?

Moreover, if the martial arts class at National Defense University represents the rising powerful beings of the coming decades, doesn’t that mean he can influence a whole generation of fate bearers and warriors in Huaxia?

This is amazing!

"I’m going to the Arrow Realm now and will do my best to advance to king level."

"I am very passionate about this enlightening future and willing to contribute to the country."

"So you must wait for me to come back and let me do this!"

With a turn, the Wind God transformed into a gentle breeze and vanished instantly.

His words echoed in the air with the force of the wind as he left.

The Star God watched the Wind God’s departing figure and smiled.

Then he glanced at Su Wen, nodded, and stepped forward, transforming into countless stars before disappearing.

"Ah!"

Fighting God sat in his chair and sighed softly.

On one hand, he felt like he was being unfairly targeted!

But on the other hand, he suddenly felt quite miserable.

Why did the Arrow Realm focus solely on him while not targeting anyone else?

All of them were fate bearers with the character "God," and yet his fate was so hard!

Is this what the God of Theater meant by a tough fate?

This kind of toughness feels a bit off!

"Keep working hard; we’re all counting on you to rise up and lead us to new heights in the future."

After comforting the Fighting God, Su Wen headed back to the God of Martial Arts’ office.

He had just seen how powerful the Demigods could be in this fight.

The future peak of the Fighting God’s power would be the strongest among them.

But even then, when up against a Demigod, he could only handle the deity’s guard.

Sure, his lack of combat experience played a part,

but even with the boost from his Martial Arts Supernatural Power, taking down a crippled Demigod of the Ghost Spirit clan was no walk in the park.

It was only after reaching Fourth Rank and splurging on a Blessing for the Fighting God’s power that he managed it.

Otherwise, killing that Holy Spirit clan Demigod and capturing the other two would’ve been nothing but a pipe dream.

From this, he could tell that both the Holy Spirit clan Demigod and the Demigod of the Ghost Spirit clan were likely half-gods forged through divine power purification.

Half-gods like that could easily overpower faith-based half-gods.

But what about the immortal half-gods?

This time, with a fortune at his disposal, as long as he could trade for immortality of body from the dark river, the road ahead would be wide open for him.

Sure, the dark river had a habit of jacking up prices based on account values, but it couldn’t…be too outrageous, right?

Please, don’t let it be too outrageous!

The grand river of time must have boundless generosity and a noble spirit that commands respect.

In this transaction, it would surely take into account his humble status as the Poor God of Wealth.

"Little Gold Vault, unleash chaos in time and space."

"This time, let’s take a peek fifty years into the future!"

Su Wen clutched his Thermos and took a sip of freshly brewed Pu’er tea.

The future!

He’s on his way!
