Back then when Lu Shu had been struck by lightning, Nie Ting called him and asked, “I heard that you were struck by lightning?” You were the boss of the Heavenly Network, yet you call me just to ask that? Were you really in that much of a rush?

Lu Shu had been upset over this for a very long time. Was he the kind of person to not bear grudges? No…

Back then, Nie Ting had called him to ask about some details regarding the divine punishment. But during the call, he did not know what to say. His words thus became a taunt.

This time, Lu Shu could finally take revenge. He felt as if he had advanced to the Shen Cang Jing ¹

Chen Zuan, who was living beside them, came to borrow things as the furniture and appliances in the house beside them were too old and had not been renewed. Thus, Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao often came over to borrow things.

Lu Xiaoyu expressionlessly looked at Chen Zuan. “When will you buy new appliances for your home? I’ll tell you that we’re only lending the house to you guys. Once that old man returns, you have to give way to him.”

“Yes, yes, yes,” agreed Chen Zuan happily. They were quite comfortable staying here. Lu Xiaoyu had ensured that the courtyards remained pleasant and peaceful. Although the house was very small, where else would they be able to find such an environment?

Furthermore, he did not receive pocket money from home under the pretence of training him. As a result, he could not afford a nice home with just his salary from the Heavenly Network.

Lu Shu happily said, “Fatty, stay behind and eat dinner with us. Call Qiuqiao over too!”

Chen Zuan suddenly shivered. “Brother Shu, have I done anything wrong recently?”

“Why are you saying that for?” Lu Shu’s expression darkened. “I’m just inviting you for a meal. I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll cook something good for you!”

Lu Shu went out to buy ingredients after he finished speaking? Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. He looked at Lu Xiaoyu. “It’s rare that Brother Shu is treating us to a meal. I’m so happy!”

Lu Xiaoyu was unhappy. “What gives you the right to talk about Lu Shu like that? Who are you talking to?”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +199!”

Chen Zuan finally understood. No matter what Lu Shu’s mood was, Lu Xiaoyu would always side with him.

“Wait.” Chen Zuan suddenly felt a shiver down his spine. “What could make Brother Shu so happy? Oh no, don’t tell me that he provoked Principal Nie again.”

He did not even have to think to derive an answer. Lu Shu was willing to remain silent for two weeks just to humiliate Nie Ting. With this fact in mind, one would understand what was going on between Lu Shu and Nie Ting…

Chen Zuan was scared out of his wits. He returned home and looked at Cheng Qiuqiao. Cheng Qiuqiao could feel his hairs standing up. “Brother Zuan, you will get a girlfriend! I’m not that kind of person!”

Chen Zuan had a melancholic expression on his face. “What do you understand? Let me tell you. Our species research specialization… might be done for…”

At the same time, the entire realm of cultivation was shocked by the fact that Nie Ting had advanced beyond Class A. Everyone had thought that Class A was the limit of human potential. But suddenly, someone had stopped the divine punishment and announced that Class A was not the end.

This was very shocking. The new class was also announced by the Heavenly Network: Shen Cang Jing.

It was made up of only three words in Chinese. If it were to be translated into other languages, who knows how long it would become? But no matter how long the name was, the name always had to be translated.

In the past, the classes were named ABCDEF. But now, there was a class name that was in Chinese. This was very odd. It was like playing bumper cars at a theme park, then suddenly riding a roller coaster. They were two very different things.

But no matter what, people had to accept this. In the past, the classes were named ABCDEF because the Golden Foundation was the strongest. They were the first to announce the classes.

But now, things were different. Nie Ting was the first to advance to Shen Cang Jing. It was up to him to decide the definition. If he wanted it to be in Chinese, then it would be in Chinese.

This was like in the past, when Chen Baili wanted to change the names of the Classes to Jia, Yi, Bing, and Ding ¹ . They wanted to get rid of foreign influence and establish their own structure.

Some said that it was not satisfying to not have a few English words in their speech. It was fine if you did not have the vocabulary to describe the classes, but if you just wanted to act, you would sound very ignorant.

Nie Ting had used Chinese to define Shen Cang Jing to tell the entire realm of Cultivation that the Heavenly Network was the strongest!

At that moment, Heavenly Network members who had been sent to work overseas as young men saw that the new definition was in Chinese, or had been translated from Chinese. They were very touched.

Some were calm on the surface, but when they thought about this at night, they were so moved that they could not sleep. Some were even brimming with tears.

This was significant, and was also a symbol. It was not that they were impressive just because they had come up with a name.

They were willing to leave their homes and live in constant danger overseas precisely because of their beliefs.

Taniguchi Bunndai, who had helped Lu Shu at the Collection of Gods, quietly sat in front of her desk. She was now an employee in a company under the Collection of Gods.

When the news came, Taniguchi Bunndai quietly looked out the window. She suddenly wanted to visit her father’s grave and tell him about the news.

What they had maintained was not for nothing.

The courtyard at Liuhai Lane was being rebuilt. Shi Xuejin stood on the rubble and directed the workers with a melancholic expression on his face. “The one laying bricks over there, don’t injure the walnut tree. Be more careful.”

Nie Ting was hiding in a base underneath Lingjing lane. He did not return to the courtyard in Liuhai Lane.

On one hand, he did not want Shi Xuejin to nag him. On the other hand, he did not want to worry about rebuilding the courtyard. He was still very busy with the Heavenly Network…

Shi Xuejin could not help but ponder. Lu Shu and Nie Ting constantly humiliated each other, but he was always the one cleaning up the mess. Why?

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +399!”

But now, Nie Ting needed a quiet place to stabilize his class. He also had to readjust the Heavenly Network’s policies. The Heavenly Network was now very strong. None of the other large organizations dared to provoke the Heavenly Network.

In the past, they had wanted to take the chance while Nie Ting was weak after breaking through to kill him, but it failed. Now, they could only pray that the Heavenly Network did not come to settle accounts with them so quickly.

But only Shi Xuejin knew that Nie Ting could no longer make a move!

This was a very highly classified secret. If the Puppet Masters were right, a battle between two Class A experts could shake this weak world. Now that Nie Ting had advance to Shen Cang Jing, the world would not be able to handle the impact of his power.
