Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 216 Appendix
As night falls, Shanghai, bathed in neon lights, becomes dazzling and enchanting.

Outside the Xuanting Hotel, various luxury cars kept driving in and parking in front of the hotel.

The doorman bowed slightly and opened the car door, and one by one, well-dressed men and women appeared, eliciting screams and cheers from the onlookers.

Today, there is a cocktail party on the top floor of the Xuanting Hotel, hosted by the organizers to welcome students from various universities who have traveled from afar.

After the reception, there was a brief press conference.

Today's invitees are all important figures, including well-known journalists, politicians, wealthy businessmen, martial arts masters, powerful spirit masters, and top executives and professional players from Glory Professional Club.
The party had already begun, and people gathered in small groups, clinking glasses and exchanging laughter.

In the VIP section, a group of more than ten people sat on the sofa, holding wine glasses and talking quietly.

One of the middle-aged men hadn't been drinking; he looked around at the crowd, seemingly observing something.

"Jiang Jun, you're at the party but not drinking? What are you looking at? Don't be so distracted."

Someone patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said.

"This year seems much more lively than before," Jiang Jun said with some doubt.

"Really? I feel like it's not that different."

A fat man, smoking a cigar, looked around.

The fat man's name is Zhang Daning, one of the top ten professions in the Glory Alliance, and an executive of the Mars Gravity Club.

"Yes, there are definitely more."

Jiang Jun nodded. The headquarters of the Zhaifeng Club was in Shanghai. He had attended several events at this kind of hotel before, so he could tell the difference.

"Yes, there are indeed more people. Almost all of the top ten clubs are here except for Juxing. There are also quite a few A-level clubs. There are at least thirty of them."

A woman in a cheongsam, still exuding charm, chimed in.

Her name is Chen Yuan. The fact that she can gather with Jiang Jun and others means that she is not of low status. She is also a senior executive of one of the top ten clubs, the Neon Club.

This small group of thirteen people consists of executives from various clubs.

"Manager Chen, what are your targets this time? Which rising star have you set your sights on?"

Jiang Jun asked the woman sitting opposite him.

"Is there any need to ask? The primary targets are naturally Yun Kai, Ye Qiu, and Zhan Tianyu. Who wouldn't want these three?"

Chen Yuan tossed her hair and said with a smile.

The atmosphere became noticeably more lively when this topic was brought up, and Zhang Daning asked with a smile:

"Miss Chen Yuan, you're not being honest. You named the three most difficult ones. Besides them, are there no other candidates?"

"Huang Tianze or Yang Ningbing are also fine."

Chen Yuan smiled, mentioned two names, and then asked Jiang Jun, "Manager Jiang, what are the targets for this year's Fengchao project?"

As a long-established powerhouse, Zhaifeng has maintained its top-three record in recent years, but it's clear to everyone that Zhaifeng has run into problems.

The problem is the lack of All-Star players, which has led to local fans becoming increasingly uninterested in the team's matches.

According to statistics, Zhaifeng's popularity now ranks eighth among the top ten clubs.

This is indeed somewhat embarrassing for a top-tier S-class club that has maintained a top-three record.

Everyone knows that Zhaifeng has been looking for promising young players who can become All-Stars all year round.

Their initial target was Lin Feng, but Lin Feng chose Juxing instead.

And they ripped off Juxing a huge sum of money.

This has made Juxing a laughing stock in the industry.

"Are you still interested in Lin Feng this time?" Chen Yuan asked.

Jiang Jun said helplessly, "That's not something I can decide. That kid is too expensive and too eccentric."

"It really is very alluring."

Many people nodded in agreement.

Lin Feng's martial arts talent is beyond doubt.

I've heard that he's already reached the peak of the fifth rank in martial arts. His cultivation speed is truly monstrous.

Even Zhan Tianyu, who had reached the sixth-grade Divine Fist realm, could not compare to him, because Lin Feng was two years younger than him.

However, for the club, training martial arts too quickly can sometimes not be a good thing.

Because the alliance has a rule that anyone over thirty years old, or who breaks through to the eighth rank of martial arts and becomes a grandmaster, must automatically retire.

In the professional league, some professional players will deliberately suppress their cultivation speed when they reach the peak of the seventh rank.

Given Lin Feng's martial arts talent, he probably wouldn't last long in the Glory Professional League if he didn't suppress his martial arts level.

This is not cost-effective for the club and cannot maximize its profits.

Of course, if Lin Feng can really bring results, then everything will be fine.

Unfortunately, although Lin Feng claimed that he could refine the demon spirits on the Earth Ranking, in the end he only refined a first-tier demon spirit.

The difference between the Earth Ranking and the First Rank is like heaven and earth.

One is in heaven and the other is underground.

Although that dragonfish has now evolved to the fourth tier, setting a historical record, it will be very difficult to evolve again in the future, and the hope of evolving into a high-level demon spirit is very slim.

Although the hope is slim, it wouldn't be accurate to say there's absolutely no hope.

In just two years, Lin Feng not only evolved his demon spirit to the fourth tier and its fourth soul skill, but it was even a purple-gold soul skill—a clone soul skill!
Such a rare soul skill is only the fourth soul skill.

For this reason, Lin Feng is indeed a very contradictory and enigmatic person.

If they could sign an A-level contract with Lin Feng for a billion yuan, many clubs would probably be willing.

But if it's five or six billion, and you still have to spend a lot of resources to train them and give them a key position in the team, then you have to think carefully about whether it's worth it.

It's worth noting that Juxing has already been scammed once.

Nobody wants to become the league's second joke.

"It's no use even if I'm interested."

Jiang Jun took a sip of wine, feeling somewhat helpless.

In fact, he still longed to sign Lin Feng, because Lin Feng was good at creating miracles, and Lin Feng's current predicament was exactly what he needed.

However, the club's decision-makers were unwilling to take risks; they wanted to play it safe and hoped to sign exceptional talents like Yun Kai and Ye Qiu.

"Why is this woman here too?"

Just then, someone next to me exclaimed in surprise.

Jiang Jun looked up and saw that they were all familiar faces, people from the Juxing Club, even Zhang Ling was there.
How did she get here?
Because of Lin Feng, wasn't she being questioned and in a bad situation?

How can you still be in the mood to come to Shanghai?
Seemingly sensing Jiang Jun's gaze, Zhang Ling said something to a few colleagues and walked towards Jiang Jun.

"How did you come?"

Jiang Jun stood up and asked curiously.

Although they didn't get along, they worked in Jiangcheng and had known each other for seven or eight years. Their relationship was purely business competition, so there were no major conflicts. On this occasion, Jiang Jun behaved very gracefully.

"Of course we're here to select promising talents!"

Zhang Ling said this as a matter of course, and sat down next to Jiang Jun.

The two chatted casually, their conversation revolving around rising stars, but neither mentioned Lin Feng.

Zhang Ling deliberately avoided the topic, and Jiang Jun did not mention it either.

While they may freely gossip and joke behind someone's back, there's no need to rub salt into their wounds to their face.

Shortly after the party began, members of the various teams started to appear one after another.

The moment these prodigies appeared, they attracted everyone's attention. Many club managers who were drinking and chatting got up and walked towards them.

Their purpose in traveling thousands of miles to Shanghai was not to drink and chat, but to sign the rookies the club needed.

Without a doubt, Yun Kai, Ye Qiu, Zhan Tianyu, Huang Tianze, and Yang Ningbing were the most popular. They were surrounded by enthusiastic people shortly after arriving, and didn't even have a chance to eat.

"What the hell are you squeezing for!"

Yu Qiao was pushed aside by the crowd, looking annoyed. He went to the buffet area, first drank a bottle of beverage, then picked up a few pieces of grilled meat and ate them indignantly.

"Why hasn't anyone come looking for me?" Yu Qiao asked Yue Mingming, who was standing next to him.

He is the chief assassin of Hongyun, with such great strength. Don't these people have any discernment?

Before leaving, he specifically discussed the price with Lin Feng, since Lin Feng had experience.

Lin Feng's ten-year investment totaled 65 billion.

Although he is not as good as Lin Feng, the gap is not large. 30 billion in ten years is within an acceptable range.

But now there isn't even a single person offering a quote.

Yue Mingming spread her hands, indicating that she didn't understand either.

Compared to Yu Qiao's resentment, he was very self-aware; the cocktail party represented dinner, and there was no need to think about anything else.

"Didn't someone just look for you?" Dong Yunan said with a smile as she ate her chocolate cake.

Yu Qiao pursed his lips. Indeed, someone had contacted him, but it wasn't one of the top ten clubs. It was just an unknown A-level club, and he couldn't even be bothered to talk to them.

Surrounded, Yun Kai quickly broke free of the crowd and returned to his teammates.

"I'm sorry, I have no intention of joining the club."

Yun Kai refused the person in front of him again. Seeing Yun Kai's firm attitude, the person smiled bitterly, did not linger, and quickly left.

"Lin Feng."

Jiang Jun approached Lin Feng and greeted him.

Lin Feng was naturally familiar with Jiang Jun. He nodded slightly and said politely, "Manager Jiang, what brings you all the way from Jiangcheng to Shanghai?"

"I've been transferred back to Shanghai, and I'm here today to scout for new talents."

At this point, Jiang Jun glanced at Yun Kai.

Before he could even speak, Yun Kai had already refused. Now, seeing Yun Kai standing behind Lin Feng, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It wasn't just Jiang Jun who noticed this; many others also realized it, and a thought flashed through their minds.

They quickly regrouped.

This time, not only Yun Kai was invited, but also Lin Feng and Yun Kai.

Many people believe that if they could acquire Yun Kai, paying an extra two or three billion yuan, along with Lin Feng, would be acceptable.
