Chapter 79 - Aking His Choice

Chapter 79: Making His Choice

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Old Wang smiled yet said nothing. The answer was clearly negative.

Fang Ping was silent for a moment, then asked his final question. “Brother Wang, you said I would be provided all resources while I’m below Rank-3. Can it be given all at once?”

“Of course not!”

Wang Jinyang shook his head straightaway. “Although they said it’s all provided, there’s still a limit to it.

“You can’t just say how much you would like and get that much. It’ll be supplied based on the usual amount of resources martial artists would need for a breakthrough.

“Also, the second you’re stuck in one rank and can’t breakthrough, if you can’t ascend to the next rank after some time, this special treatment may be canceled…”

Fang Ping seemed to heave a sigh of relief. Seeing this, Wang Jinyang chuckled and said, “Have you made your decision?”

“Somewhat.”

Fang Ping sighed. “If Nanjiang Martial Arts University were willing to give me millions of resources in one go, then I’d choose Nanjiang Martial Arts University without a doubt.”

What Fang Ping lacked was supplies in the earlier stages. When it came to the later stages, he would have more power and time, so these would not pose any problems.

If Nanjiang Martial Arts University gave him that many resources in one go, Fang Ping would have more than ten million Wealth Points and would have a large number of medicinal pills and elixirs at hand.

In that case, he would not have to struggle at all in the earlier stages. He could take his time to get to Rank-3.

When it came to after Rank-3, Fang Ping did not think he would be the same as he was now.

However, Nanjiang Martial Arts University could only give it to him in batches. This did not match Fang Ping’s initial idea.

As it was, the Big Two were naturally the better choices.

Fang Ping did feel it was quite a pity though. Old Wang had a lot of authority in Nanjiang Martial Arts University. If he had Old Wang looking after him, he could save himself a lot of trouble.

Moreover, Wu Zhihao and the others were most likely applying to Nanjiang Martial Arts University as well, which meant there would be more familiar faces and more fun there.

That being said, the benefits of entering the Big Two were also very appealing to Fang Ping.

Especially if he involved himself in the creation of medicinal pills and elixirs. Fang Ping’s dream of becoming a secondhand dealer had not withered. If he went to Nanjiang Martial Arts University, he might not get the chance. On the other hand, he might have some opportunity at the Big Two.

At Fang Ping’s words, Wang Jinyang also knew what his decision was.

The fact that Wang Jinyang could so fairly talk about the benefits of attending the Big Two revealed his intentions.

The Big Two were more suitable for Fang Ping.

He only made that offer because he wanted to give Nanjiang’s martial sciences realm a chance to polish this rough diamond.

Since Fang Ping already made his choice, Wang Jinyang did not press further.

The road of martial sciences was one that had to be walked by oneself.

“Magic City or Imperial City?”

“Probably Magic City, where the business sector is a little stronger. Imperial City has a stronger political sector.”

Wang Jinyang inclined his head. “Magic City Martial Arts University isn’t a bad choice. The environment is a little friendlier than Imperial City…”

“Huh?” Fang Ping was a little confused.

Wang Jinyang laughed. “To put it simply, there are more martial arts households and bureaucratic households at Imperial City, so there are more powerhouses there as well. Many of the teachers at Capital City Martial Arts University come from these households.”

“Magic City is different. They have all sorts of people there.

“For us small fry, in Magic City, there are at least things we can achieve with our own efforts.

“In Imperial City, effort is not enough.

“Also, a stronger business sector implies a lot more powerhouses from business backgrounds. As you know, these business powerhouses are better to talk to.”

Fang Ping was tempted to admit he had no idea.

Still, when he thought about the lifestyles of businessmen, it was probably as Wang Jinyang said. They would be better to interact with.

Furthermore, Magic City’s business sector was strong, which meant Fang Ping could do more there.

Fang Ping saw that Wang Jinyang was not upset and subtly heaved a sigh of relief. “Brother Wang, I didn’t choose Nanjiang Martial Arts University…” he said apologetically.

“That’s alright!”

Wang Jinyang did not take it personally. With a broad smile on his face, he said, “Water flows downward, whereas men endeavor to rise. It’s a very natural choice.

“If it were me, had I met the standards of the Big Two, I would have chosen the Big Two too.

“Since I’ve chosen this road, however, I’ll produce some results, so I don’t embarrass myself.

“Me, I could possibly be considered your teacher for half of your martial sciences enlightenment. If you lose face, I, too, lose face.

“Of course, you don’t have to mention me when you’re at Magic City Martial Arts University…”

Old Wang reminded him firmly. Right at the start of this year, some people had gone to Magic City Martial Arts University for a day trip.

Old Wang did not take up the issue with the ones in Year Three and Year Four.

The ones in Year 1 and Year 2 who were Rank-2 and below were pretty much all picked on.

Magic City Martial Arts University’s Year 1 and Year 2 students did not just have Rank-2 martial artists, they had Rank-3 students too!

However, at the time, Old Wang was only peak Rank-1. Who would so unabashedly fight students from a regular martial arts university?

As everyone should know, this was one of the Sino Nation’s two best martial sciences schools!

All of them felt if some peak Rank-1 martial artist came forward, they would be able to help the bastard learn their place.

The results were tragic. Even a Rank-1 martial artist who had honed his bones thrice had fought, but he was inhumanely thrashed.

Finally, a Rank-2 martial artist entered the fight and pummeled a few of them.

However, Magic City Martial Arts University’s reputation was not undamaged.

Now, these same people were in Year Two and Year Three, and not many Year Four students studied abroad. These students were the mainstream of martial arts universities.

If Fang Ping brought up Old Wang, Wang Jinyang was afraid Fang Ping would cry.

Of course, Wang Jinyang felt Fang Ping would not mention him. The way he saw it, once Fang Ping went to Magic City Martial Arts University, Fang Ping would not cross paths with Nanjiang much.

Little did Wang Jinyang know, Fang Ping had already name-dropped him many a time.

Once he went to Magic City, there would not necessarily be an occasion that involved Wang Jinyang, but if there happened to be one, Fang Ping would not let it pass.

As Fang Ping had made his choice, the objective of this meeting was achieved.

As Wang Jinyang was about to leave, he thought for a while and said, “After you go to Magic City, cultivate properly. Perhaps we can meet again very soon.”

Fang Ping was suspicious. “You’re going to Magic City for an assignment?”

“Maybe.”

Wang Jinyang smiled but did not say anything else.

Exploring Magic City or Imperial City was something many martial artists would do.

However, as he was the president of the Nanjiang Martial Arts Society and the representative of Nanjiang martial sciences students, if he were to go to Magic City, it would be unlikely that it was simply for sightseeing.

After Governor-General Zhang broke through Rank-7, he wanted to revitalize Nanjiang martial sciences.

In the coming period of time, Nanjiang would make many moves. As the president of the Martial Arts Society, Wang Jinyang would definitely be roped in.

Of course, the current Fang Ping did not qualify to take part.

Wang Jinyang left without any hard feelings.

Fang Ping did not know if his choice was right or wrong, but he only made his decision to go to Magic City Martial Arts University after weighing its advantages and disadvantages.

Nevertheless, he could still feel Wang Jinyang hoped he would go to Nanjiang Martial Arts University.

Naturally, Old Wang did not say as much. He had made the offer on behalf of the school and did not express his personal opinions.

Had Old Wang said something about hoping Fang Ping would choose Nanjiang Martial Arts University, even if Fang Ping had been hesitant at heart, he probably would have done so.

Wang Jinyang had said himself that he could be considered his teacher for half of his martial sciences journey.

In Fang Ping’s eyes though, Wang Jinyang was not just that. His whole martial sciences enlightenment journey had been single-handedly guided by this Rank-3 genius martial artist.

Combat techniques, stances and the Methods of Honing. These three were the sum of his martial sciences enlightenment, and all of them had come from Wang Jinyang.

…

Outside the gymnasium.

Nini had overheard the entire conversation between the two of them.

Now that they were out of the gym, the little lady lowered her voice and asked, “Why don’t you ask him to go to Nanjiang Martial Arts University?”

Wang Jinyang held her hand while they walked and smiled. “Why ask him to go?”

“You… Didn’t you say you’d look for my father? He improved so fast, he could help you…”

“These kinds of things can’t be forced.”

Wang Jinyang shook his head and said lightly, “He has his own path, and I have mine.

“I’ll look for your father. When the time is right, I’ll look for assistants too.

“That doesn’t mean I’ll force anyone to accept it. What I need is a like-minded ally, not a reluctant martial arts prodigy.

“Anyway… He is still too weak right now.”

Wang Jinyang paused. He lowered his head and looked at Nini. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely find your father,” he said gently.

“My… My father, he…. Is he…”

The girl’s eyes reddened slightly. Just because she was of a young age, it did not mean she was silly or that she knew nothing.

Her father had gone to Tiannan for an assignment. The students he had brought with him had all returned, and so had the uncles who went with him.

Only her father had not returned!

The uncles had said her father was only missing, and that was what her father’s students said too. Her mother told her the same thing.

However, could he really come back from being missing?

The student her father was proudest of was the young man in front of her, and he was telling her that he would definitely find her father!

Nini knew that this was just comforting herself though.

Her Rank-5 father had gone missing; was a Rank-3 senior capable of finding him?

Nini had begged Nanjiang Martial Arts University’s dean, that kind and gentle old man, to find her father when he had paid a visit to her and her mother.

The old man had brushed her off at that time.

Yes, he had brushed her off!

The girl was not an idiot. She was born to such a distingushed family, and she had a Rank-5 father. Even Fang Ping could not compare with her regarding the things she had seen and been through.

She could tell if someone was being sincere or not.

When she found out Fang Ping had completed his second bone-honing in two months, which was even more amazing than Senior Wang, the girl had hoped Senior Wang would say something to make him stay.

She could see the big brother earlier really trusted Senior Wang.

If Senior Wang opened his mouth, Fang Ping would likely stay with Nanjiang Martial Arts University. Perhaps he would be able to breakthrough Rank-3 or even Rank-4 not long after…

It was a pity Senior Wang did not do it.

Wang Jinyang said softly, “Don’t worry. Your father is fine. It’s just that we can’t find him for now.

“After I break through to Rank-4, I’ll go find him. If Rank-4 isn’t enough, then Rank-5…”

If Rank-5 was not enough, then he would become a grandmaster!

However, he could not say that. Reaching grandmaster was too difficult!

If he said it now, it would not help the situation and would instead make Nini, who was already feeling down, feel even more hopeless.

There was only hope if he was a grandmaster?

That would take months and years!

At that point, could her father really be found alive?

Almost everyone had actually come to this conclusion when Zhang Qingnan had gone into the Catacombs in the ground, but they all said he went “missing” to comfort his kid daughter.

…

Fang Ping was not clear what Wang Jinyang and Nini talked about.

He also did not know about Zhang Qingnan’s matters. He did not even know that the long-limbed instructor in his combat techniques cultivation videos was Zhang Qingnan.

Since he had made his choice, Fang Ping did not go to Nanjiang’s awards ceremony.

Every time he thought about the large amounts of money slipping out of his hands, Fang Ping could not suppress the pain in his heart.

“I hope Magic City Martial Arts University won’t disappoint me!”

Fang Ping mumbled to himself, then calculated the Wealth he had now.

He should take the opportunity while he was on vacation to work out a detailed plan.

Now that he was sure where he was going to school, he should also consider how to be productive in Magic City.

The medicinal pills and elixirs, cash and Wealth points he had now might not be able to last for long.
