Chapter 57 - Cosmic Heaven’s Gate
Chapter 57 Cosmic Heaven’s Gate
On the top floor of the hotel. Mu Yutong, who was in deep thought, suddenly looked up and looked at the door in confusion.
“Come in. The door is not locked.”
The door was pushed open and Norman with his signature green hair strode in.
“What’s wrong with you today? You’re actually willing to come to my place as a guest?” Mu Yutong smiled and greeted.
Norman shook his head and did not answer. Instead, he walked straight to the large terminal screen set up in the room and transmitted a message.
A moment later, the image of Chu Nan punching Chloe away appeared on the huge virtual screen.
After waiting for this scene to repeat twice, Norman pointed at Chu Nan on the virtual screen and asked Mu Yutong, “Hey, do you recognize this kid?”
The moment he saw Chu Nan on the virtual screen, a trace of surprise flashed through Mu Yutong’s eyes before he suppressed it.
Now that he heard Norman ask, he smiled and asked, “What? Is there a problem?”
Norman glared at him, “What’s the problem? Do you know that this guy has eliminated a genius from our Phezzan Autonomous Region? You’ve always told me that you didn’t find any good seedlings this time. I don’t believe you didn’t notice this little guy.”
Mu Yutong was silent for a moment before his gaze swept past Chu Nan who was frozen on the virtual screen. He sighed softly and nodded, “His name is Chu Nan.”
“You did notice.” Norman sneered, “Very good, Mu. Now that you have completed your goal, according to our agreement, you will have to go to the Phezzan Autonomous Region with me next month.”
Mu Yutong looked up at him.
“Who told you that I’ve completed my goal?” Norman was stunned, then furious.
“You clearly have such an outstanding kid here, but you’re telling me that you didn’t complete the goal? Are you lying through your teeth?”
“Chu Nan…” When he mentioned Chu Nan’s name, Mu Yutong frowned slightly, “He is indeed very outstanding and his talent is very good, but… he still does not fulfill my requirement.”
“How is that possible? Although I did not take Chloe as my disciple, his talent is rather good. He has already become a second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist at the age of 19, but he was sent flying by a punch from this kid called Chu Nan. Could it be that he still can’t meet your requirements?”
Norman clearly did not believe it.
“Look carefully.” Mu Yutong pointed at the virtual screen, “Watch a few more times and you’ll see why.”
Seeing Mu Yutong’s serious expression, Norman frowned and started to play this video again.
The scene of Chu Nan sending Chloe flying with a punch only lasted for a few seconds. Norman quickly read it a few times. His two thick green eyebrows that were like weeds growing on his eyes frowned deeply.
“This kid… doesn’t seem to have reached the level of an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist…”
“To be precise, he’s only at the initial-stage Overlord Body realm now. Of course, from the looks of it, he has made some breakthroughs recently. Perhaps he can be considered a second-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist.”
“What a joke!” Norman reflexively retorted, “If he was only an initial-stage or second-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist, what right did he have to send a second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist like Chloe flying with a punch? Look, he clearly used Internal Breath in his punch.”
“Do you need me to tell you that Overlord Body Martial Artists can also mobilize their Internal Breath in battle?” Mu Yutong glanced at him indifferently.
Norman sneered and frowned as he looked at the image twice more. He turned and looked at Mu Yutong solemnly.
“Tell me, what’s going on? This kid called Chu Nan does look like a low-level Overlord Body, but he was actually able to send Chloe flying with a punch. It’s clearly not that simple.”
Mu Yutong shook his head and did not answer. He adjusted the large screen on the terminal and released another video.
This scene was the scene that he had watched and evaluated with Zheng Yuanlin before. It was the scene where Chu Nan repelled Luo Jie in the underground parking lot.
After repeating this scene a few times, Norman fell silent.
After a long time, he asked, “Are you sure this little guy is only at the low-stage Overlord Body Realm?”
“You saw it just now,” Mu Yutong replied.
Norman was silent for a moment longer, then suddenly let out a long sigh.
“How unfortunate…”
Mu Yutong smiled bitterly, “It’s indeed a pity.”
Norman sighed, “If we could have discovered this little guy ten years earlier, your Earth Federation would have probably benefited greatly from the next invitation from the royal family of Declan. It would probably not be difficult for another Star-Grade Martial Artist to appear in the future. Unfortunately, he’s only at the low-stage Overlord Body Realm now. His body has yet to be tempered, and his Internal Breath is far from sufficient. It’s almost impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future. No matter how hard he works, he’ll probably only be a low-level Void Break Martial Artist at most. What a pity…”
Mu Yutong also had an expression of pity.
“Forget about the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate for now, but it’s only a few years until the invitation form the royal family of Declan. It’s impossible for him to reach the minimum requirement in a short few years. Therefore, although I admire him very much, I can only give up.”
Norman nodded lightly in agreement.
In their opinion, if Chu Nan had enough hard work and opportunities in the future, there was still a chance that he could become a Void Break Martial Artist. In the eyes of ordinary people, he could be considered an expert, but in the eyes of these two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Void Break Martial Artists were not much different from ordinary people, so there was no need to pay too much attention to him. After thinking for a moment, Norman suddenly asked, “Right, Mu Yutong, did your Earth Federation push for the popularization of basic martial arts this time to prevent similar wasted potential like Chu Nan from appearing again?”
“Of course.” Mu Yutong slowly nodded, “Do you still remember what Yuanlin told you before? Our Earth Federation does not lack talent, but we lack the way to discover talent. There are definitely countless young geniuses like Chu Nan in our Earth Federation. If we can let these geniuses who are buried lay a sufficient martial arts foundation in advance, we can let them grow as much as possible.”
Norman thought for a moment and shook his head, “This policy is useless in our Phezzan Autonomous Region. Everyone in our Phezzan Autonomous Region has practiced martial arts since young. As long as one has enough talent, they will definitely be able to appear. There will definitely not be a situation like Chu Nan.”
“Are you sure?” Mu Yutong glanced at him.
“I…” Norman paused and smiled bitterly,” Alright, I’m not 100% sure. But no matter what, we’re much better than your Earth Federation.”
“It can’t be helped. The history of your Phezzan Autonomous Region is actually about the same as the Declan Empire. The time when our Earth Federation stepped into the Milky Way and truly started to explore martial arts was only a few hundred years.”
Mu Yutong stood up and circled the room twice before suddenly revealing a slightly strange smile to Norman.
“Are you interested in putting up a show with
me?”
