Chapter 211 Shen Wanjin (1/2)
Time swiftly flowed as they traveled, and month unknowingly passed.
On a certain day.
In one of the holding quarters of the ship, Zhou Yuan’s shut eyes suddenly opened, breaking him out of his cultivation state. He had suddenly sensed some strange activity in the surrounding Genesis Qi which seemed to be stirring violently.
At the same time, numerous cheers could be heard outside the room.
Zhou Yuan opened the windows and looked outside. The thick layers of clouds were being torn apart as an extremely distant land began to appear.
His heart trembled slightly when his gaze fell upon it. He could sense an extremely concentrated and boundless natural Genesis Qi filling the sky above the land.
Its concentration level far surpassed that of any continent Zhou Yuan had visited before.
In addition, the Genesis Qi seemed to slip between various forms and shapes, giving off a spontaneously unique feeling, as if it was a blessing and right belonging only to them.
Zhou Yuan seemed to realise something as he mumbled to himself, ”Is… this the Shengzhou Continent that enjoys 60% of the entire Cangxuan Heaven's blessings?”
It was indeed vast and practically limitless.
In a place like this, even if two people had similar talent, the one who trained here would achieve far more than the one in any other continent.
In a certain sense, the entire Shengzhou Continent was basically an indescribably enormous cultivation paradise…
”No wonder teacher uncle Mu told us the geniuses here would be exceedingly arrogant. If you grew up here, geniuses from other continents would indeed look like country bumpkins.” Zhou Yuan sighed deeply.
*Knock knock*!
While Zhou Yuan was sighing, the sound of knocking was heard from the door.
Zhou Yuan called out to come in, and the door quickly opened, revealing a round face that smiled charmingly at Zhou Yuan. ”Little Yuan bro, teacher uncle Mu told us to get ready. Once we reach the Shengzhou Continent, we'll be leaving the boat and heading towards the Cangxuan Sect.”
The one at the door was a little fatty. Though a smile was usually present on his face, light often flickered brightly in his small eyes, an indication of his exceptional brilliance.
The little fatty was called Shen Wanjin, and was also one of the geniuses from the Cangmang Continent. His Shen clan was an overlord of its own domain, equipped with wealth that could match entire empires.
Of course, this did not mean the little fatty was weak, or he would not have been selected by Mu Wuji.
Ever since Mu Wuji's warning, the Cangmang geniuses had understood that their previous status in their homeland would no longer be valid in the Shengzhou Continent, making them extremely ordinary instead.
In fact, they may not even be able to become formal disciples of the Cangxuan Sect.
The cruel reality was a wake up call for everyone. Most of them began to train frantically, hoping to at least raise their strength a little before reaching the Cangxuan Sect, so as to avoid becoming a third class disciple and be looked down upon by others.
On the other hand, this little fatty, Shen Wanjin, had chosen the most direct and efficient method; relying on Zhou Yuan… the little fatty had practically become Zhou Yuan's servant during this period, obediently abiding his every command.
With regards to this, Zhou Yuan did not know whether to laugh or cry. However, he was pretty surprised by Shen Wanjin's decisiveness to give everything up just like that. Although he was nothing special to look at, he was clearly still very talented…
Hence, after trying to dissuade him several times to no avail, Zhou Yuan could no longer be bothered, letting the former do as he wanted.
After spending some time together over this period, Zhou Yuan found that Shen Wanjin was actually pretty straight forward. There was no beating about the bush, but instead a direct declaration; big bro, I’m here to grab ahold of you with all my might. I’m yours from now onwards so please do shelter me.
Towards someone with such a thick skin, there was nothing Zhou Yuan could do but laugh bitterly.
”Alright.”
Zhou Yuan smiled and nodded. After tidying up abit, he walked out of the door, heading towards the bow of the ship with Shen Wanjin.
As they walked, Zhou Yuan swept a glance at Shen Wanjin and said with a smile, ”I say, you're the young master of the Shen clan after all, and your clan is nothing but stronger than my Great Zhou Empire. Why is there a need for this?”
If this was the Cangmang Continent, Shen Wanjin would already outclassed him in both status and background.
Shen Wanjin beamed in response. ”Little Yuan bro, do you know what my Shen clan places the most emphasis on? Two words… good judgement!”
“My clan is fond of making friends, regardless of whether they are strong or weak. That’s why my clan has the most friends in the Cangmang Continent. As for how to choose those worthy of investing in from amongst these friends, it would depend on one’s judgement ability.”
