Chapter 210 The People's Alliance [Part Two]

With the cooperation of several superior clans, this process was implemented very smoothly without encountering any resistance, and no one dared to obstruct or delay it in the slightest.

Everything operates at maximum efficiency.

In just a few days, Yu's internal reforms have achieved a qualitative leap.

Martial arts courses have been formally added to high schools, with specialized martial arts practitioners serving as instructors to teach the secrets of martial arts.

The site selection and construction of the Martial Arts University were launched simultaneously.

Any promising talent who shows true potential can directly embark on the path of martial arts without having to continue the heavy academic curriculum of high school, and be guaranteed admission to a martial arts university.

An official Secret Weapon Club for adults in society has also been formally established.

In order to quickly spread the information to every corner, countless celebrities and business tycoons took the initiative to endorse and promote the product.

That's why, in less than ten days.

The entire kingdom of Yu.

From centenarians to toddlers just learning to speak, everyone now knows that secret martial artists exist in this world.

Aside from the elderly who are frail, have depleted energy and blood, and even have difficulty walking, the rest of the population, whether ordinary people or middle-class and wealthy individuals, are all included.

Anyone who is fifteen years of age or older is attempting to practice esoteric martial arts.

Compared to ordinary people without a background or identity.

Those with a certain status and position generally know some information about the secret martial artists.

However, there is no way to get started.

After all, the value of the treasures from Miwu goes without saying, not to mention that there are clan spies in almost every city.

Even if one obtains a secret weapon, one would not dare to cultivate it recklessly.

Once discovered, I'm afraid I'll be invited for tea before I've even accomplished anything.

If it gets more serious, the whole family might be implicated.

Practicing esoteric martial arts privately was previously illegal.

But now, the opportunity to practice Tantric martial arts legally and compliantly is right in front of us, so we naturally can't miss it.

This is not only because Miwu can strengthen the body, but also because everyone could have predicted it.

The future trends and opportunities, and how high one can stand and how far one can go, will inevitably be closely related to those who practice martial arts.

Whether you can make it in this lifetime depends on this one chance.

Once you succeed, you will gain wealth, honor, and even a long life.

This temptation was even greater than becoming emperor.

Thus, a craze for practicing esoteric martial arts swept across the land.

Everyone displayed an unimaginable fervor.

Apart from these.

Another major change was the complete replacement of the original system of the Yu State.

Instead, a completely new core architecture has been introduced—One Person Connects.

Ordinary people can log in through their own identity information after being authenticated by the Principal Court.

Ordinary people are considered Level 0 citizens.

Citizens in the Body Forging Realm are Level 1 citizens, those in the Skin Polishing Realm are Level 2 citizens, and so on.

The higher the rank, the better the benefits and treatment you can enjoy.

However, the highest level of citizenship that ordinary people can reach is only level four.

The secret martial artist corresponding to the Strong Viscera Realm.

Above that are the actual seats for members of parliament.

That position is only open to experts at the Blood Transformation Realm.

It wields immense power, possessing the right to vote within the People's Federation.

Of course, some individuals with special skills can also obtain citizenship status comparable to that of secret warriors.

They could even become members of parliament as ordinary citizens.

After all, relying solely on cultivators is insufficient to govern the entire Yu Kingdom.

It also needs the assistance of talents from other fields.

Perhaps their strength is far inferior to that of a martial artist at the Blood Exchange Realm.

However, within their respective domains, they each possess an unshakeable and absolute advantage.

Of course.

This advantage is only temporary and will gradually be leveled off over time.

The martial arts practitioners are physically strong and healthy, with lightning-fast reflexes and astonishing memories.

The existence of those at the Blood Exchange Realm transcends that of mortals.

If they are willing, they can master a skill in a very short time and elevate it to a master level.

All of this was not a problem for them at all.

The only difference is whether or not you are willing to spend the time.

Aside from a very rare few exceptional geniuses, the skills that most talented people possess are not difficult for martial artists to master.

The difference in skill level can only be created if these ordinary people also practice secret martial arts.

At present.

Within the Human Alliance, there are dozens of councilors from the Blood Transformation Realm, and several ordinary people also hold seats.

In total, there were eighty people.

Above ordinary members of parliament is the position of speaker.

Those who are capable of undertaking this task.

Only the realm of Yuan Dan.

Apart from Ji Guanhai, who has already been killed, the Ji family still has two Yuan Dan realm cultivators remaining.

One from the Yi family, two from the Jiang family, one from the Zhao family, and two from the Luo family.

Including Kui Xiao, there are a total of nine Yuan Dan.

Including Hu Long, there are a total of ten.

The ten members jointly formed the People's Union and established the position of Speaker, thus forming the true decision-making body.

With the addition of Hu Long, the People's Alliance appears to have ten speakers, discussing various matters and voting together.

But this is actually just a show put on for outsiders.

The truth is that the other nine people had already been secretly imprinted with Hu Long's mental mark and were completely under his control.

Therefore, in the Yu Kingdom, the true leader of the People's Alliance was only Hu Long from beginning to end.

As one of the three major powers.

These changes that occurred within the territory of the State of Yu naturally attracted the attention of other countries immediately.

Japan.

Essentially, it is an island nation isolated at sea, with its territory pieced together from several islands of varying sizes.

Geographically, it is very close to the State of Yu, so close that it is like a knife hanging at the waist of the State of Yu.

However, it is precisely because of the terrain that this place is never peaceful.

Earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, typhoons—these natural disasters visit this land every year.

The number of people who die each year is not small.

It remains unchanged for a thousand years.

Thus, an idea took root in the hearts of the Japanese.

That is to seize the territory of the State of Yu.

The land there is vast, rich in resources, and rarely suffers from natural disasters.

If this is used as a springboard, it could even be used to contend for world hegemony.

In order to achieve this goal.

Throughout its long history, Japan has repeatedly attempted to unite with other countries to encircle the Kingdom of Yu.

But each time it ended in a crushing defeat, for a simple reason.

The skill gap among high-level martial artists is too large.

The strongest in Japanese history was merely someone who had achieved perfect blood transfusion.

Compared to those supreme grandmasters of the Yuan Dan realm in the Yu Kingdom, they wouldn't even be worthy of carrying each other's shoes.

Until two hundred years ago, the First Industrial Revolution broke out, and all kinds of firearms flooded the world like a tidal wave.

Seventy years ago, the first hydrogen bomb was successfully detonated at a secret test site, sending up a huge mushroom cloud and tearing apart everything within a radius of dozens of miles.

This gave the Japanese hope.

The once dormant ambition has been reignited.

They attempted to unite with allies to purchase hydrogen bombs, plotting to wipe out all the Yuan Dan cultivators in the Yu Kingdom in one fell swoop.

However, they still underestimated the terror of the Yuan Dan realm.

The news somehow leaked out.

Those countries that joined forces to besiege the Yu Kingdom were wiped off the map one by one.

Japan almost suffered the same fate. If the Purple Gold Empire hadn't intervened and saved it, the island nation would probably have sunk to the bottom of the sea long ago.

Even so, they never gave up the idea of ​​invading the Yu Kingdom.

now.

Inside a somewhat old-fashioned Japanese-style mansion, the light was dim.

An elderly man dressed in white, with an ordinary face like an old neighbor, sat cross-legged on the wooden floor with his eyes slightly closed.

His back was ramrod straight, and he remained motionless.

A long sword lay quietly across his lap, its scabbard black and undecorated, yet it exuded a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine.

A man in black was kneeling in front of him.

The man in black lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

"Your Excellency, there are new developments in the Yu Kingdom."

"They established a human alliance, began systematic training for secret warriors, and even established a specialized university—"

After the man in black finished speaking...

Hojo Muneaki's eyes, which had been closed the whole time, suddenly opened.

He immediately gave a cold laugh.

"People's Federation? That's quite a boast."

"Are they so arrogant as to think they represent all of humanity on Earth?"

Human Federation.

The name alone is enough to reveal the extent of their ambition, which is almost completely undisguised.

As he spoke, he stood up.

After taking a couple of steps, the wooden clogs made a crisp sound on the smooth ground.

"However, speaking of which, when did those old fogies change their ways? Aren't they afraid of being punished by a coalition of nations for their blatant and high-profile behavior?"

Information about secret warriors has always been a tacitly recognized secret by all countries, with secrecy being paramount.

After all, extraordinary power is the foundation for the ruling class to remain in power.

If everyone could practice secret martial arts, would they still have a place in this world?

A nation's power may surge, but the resulting uncertainties could completely overturn the existing chessboard.

Therefore, to date, no country has publicly disclosed information about secret weapons.

Because that would draw the attention of secret warriors from all nations across Earth.

Even the Yu Kingdom, one of the three great powers, would not dare to bear such consequences.

Moreover, based on his understanding of the clans in the Yu Kingdom, such a thing was simply impossible.

Those clans valued their lineage more than their own lives.

To hand over their secret weapons and form a human rights alliance is simply a pipe dream.

No matter how you look at it, something seems amiss.

The man in black lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"Your Excellency, what should we do next? Many citizens online are already aware of the situation in Yu Kingdom. Do you think we should implement an information blockade?"

Upon hearing this...

Hojo Muneaki turned his hands behind his back, his gaze piercing through the floor-to-ceiling windows as he looked towards the city lights in the distance.

"Let's wait and see how things develop; there's no need to pay attention."

He paused.

"Furthermore, secretly increasing the recruitment and training of Shogunate members might not be a bad opportunity for us."

Hojo Muneaki was not actually opposed to the spread of secret weapons.

Previously, due to concerns about the attitudes of other countries, they dared not do this openly.

This opportunity might be useful in increasing the number of Japanese martial artists.

The situation in Japan is not an isolated case.

Other countries have chosen to block information from spreading in this regard.

Some let things develop on their own, observing the reactions of other countries first.

Some, however, secretly fueled the fire, allowing the news to spread even faster.

Several other countries followed the example of the Yu Kingdom and also announced the existence of the Secret Warriors.

vary.

But in any case.

The actions of the Yu Kingdom have had a significant impact on humanity across the entire planet Earth.

At the same time.

Just as the outside world was in an uproar over the public release of the secret weapon.

In an unknown, blessed land.

This is an island.

It was surrounded by an endless expanse of seawater.

On the island.

The island is covered with peach orchards, and the falling petals drift in the wind like pink smoke.

The winding forest path leads through flower groves, where a few bamboo huts and thatched eaves are scattered among the green bamboo and ancient pines.

A babbling brook meanders past the house, with a few peach petals floating on its surface and koi carp occasionally swimming by.

In the distance stands a stone bridge, its surface crystal clear. At the bridgehead stands an ancient stone tablet inscribed with two seal characters—"Peach Blossom Spring."

This includes the area near the center of the island.

There is a spring.

The spring water churns, resembling a hot spring, but upon closer inspection, one can vaguely see tiny blue and white electric arcs moving within the water.

A pale-faced, bloodless young man lay naked in the room.

A hole was faintly visible in his chest.

The lightning snakes in the pool seemed to have a life of their own, constantly burrowing into the young man's body.

The wound on his chest is being repaired.

Strangely, whenever the injuries were partially healed, they would be forcibly torn apart again by a domineering crimson-gold light that permeated the area.

The young man's body would also twitch slightly, as if he were enduring great pain.

Not far from the Thunder Pool.

A young girl dressed in a pale yellow dress and with a peach wood hairpin in her hair looked on nervously and worriedly.

It seems that this young man is very important to her.

"Brother Yifeng, are you alright?"

She cried out in alarm.

"—Ling'er, I'm alright! Ah—"

The young man's face twitched; he wanted to answer.

However, a trace of crimson energy surged from the wound, tearing apart his newly healed ribs.

This person was none other than Li Yifeng, who had been shot through the chest by Hu Long's arrow.

"Damn it! Who is that guy? How can he be so strong? Even the First Master and Fourth Master were severely injured when they attacked together—"

Li Yifeng cursed inwardly.

Although he managed to escape.

However, the residual force in that arrow was extremely difficult to remove.

Even this forbidden zone is unacceptable.

At this rate...

It will take at least half a month for the injury to fully heal.

Leaving aside the intense pain he would have to endure during the process, he might not even be able to withstand the effects that this constant tearing and rebuilding might have on his body.

Upon witnessing this scene.

The girl called Ling'er seemed to have thought of something and turned to leave.

They quickly turned back.

At the same time, she held a black wooden token in her hand.

"Brother Yifeng, this was left to me by my grandfather."

"That's what Lei Ling'er, the girl in the yellow dress, said."

"You can make a deal with Zero Pawnshop by smearing it with blood. Take it; it might be useful to you."

After she finished speaking, she threw the wooden sign over.

Li Yifeng reached out and caught it.

The token has the character "zero" engraved on its front. It is icy to the touch and made of some unknown material, yet it is completely immune to the power of the surrounding lightning pool.

"Ling'er, this is too precious, I can't—"

Li Yifeng declined.

Despite saying that, her fingers unconsciously tightened their grip on the wooden plaque, showing no intention of returning it.

Lei Ling'er didn't notice this and interrupted him directly.

"It's alright, Brother Yifeng, you can take it."

"As long as I can help you, Ling'er will be content."

She paused, then added as if remembering something.

"By the way, Grandpa said that items pawned there can only be used by the pawner."

Therefore, Brother Yifeng, you'll have to go to Pawnshop Zero in person.

"Alright then! Thank you, Ling'er."

Li Yifeng looked moved.

He lowered his head and looked at the jet-black token in his palm.

A moment later, he gritted his teeth, took a sip of blood from his chest, and slowly smeared it onto the wooden sign.

The moment the blood touched the token.

The surrounding scenery shattered with a deafening crash.

Darkness surged in like ink, enveloping him.

He felt as if he were falling from a great height, with the wind whistling past his ears.

This feeling didn't last long; it quickly dissipated, replaced by a sense of grounded security.

The darkness receded like a tide.

The black patterned floorboards were visible beneath my feet.

The surroundings were old and worn, with a thin layer of dust on the wooden shelves.

Just then, a gentle and refined voice suddenly rang out, carrying a hint of surprise.

"Oh, a first-class black card! Distinguished guest, what would you like to pawn?"
