Yan Xiaosu nodded. Honestly, the girl's attitude had not been bad. She had not sought to taunt or laugh at them. Rules were rules, and she had been powerless.
"Alright, we'll let it go this time. Your system is unreasonable, and needs improvement. Your staff's attitude was good, though. Don't put it on her."
The manager immediately smiled ingratiatingly."Of course, of course. We will definitely change in the future, no, immediately."
At the side, the girl was the picture of gratefulness. She understood that one ugly word from Yan Xiaosu would have finished her. She was filled with thanks, even reverence, which made Yan Xiaosu feel really good about himself. Yan Xiaosu was an easy person to satisfy.
The group members were shocked. Since when did Little Lucky Star become so formidable?
Long live the boss!!!
At this moment, the Ivy Hotel was in a commotion. The red carpet had been unrolled all the way to the door, and flanked by hotel staff on both sides, their uniforms crisp. In front, 8 ladies were waiting with fresh flowers and gifts to welcome them. This was the highest level of reception that the hotel could provide.
The hotel staff were working themselves to the limit, and the guests were whispering as well. Such a set-up, what kind of guests-of-honor were coming? Would it be Arbiter or Manalasuo?
Jasper was just about to bring his secretary up and to bed, but seeing the rush, decided to stay in the atrium to see what guest was coming.
And when they appeared on the red carpet, some color entered his pale face. Was he seeing things?
The female secretary was bemused as well."Why are they back?"
"Shut your mouth! Say nothing if you have can't speak properly!" Jasper pulled her back. The hotel would not make a mistake on things like this, which meant that their position... Jasper was not just a playboy. He was a businessman, and his eyes were going wild.
Yan Xiaosu's anger had abated. Since they were so sincere, he was not an unreasonable man.
Walking into the atrium, the 8 ladies waiting moved to meet them. They gave a curtsey to Yan Xiaosu, and each person was gifted with a bunch of fresh flowers, and their gift box was opened.
When the object inside was revealed, there was a collective gasp of surprise from the onlookers.
In the gift box was a brooch. With a light shake, the brooch floated of its own accord as though in space. Clearly, the brooch was made of super-gravity energy ore!
This was not a present from the hotel, but from the TitaTitan Star government!
"This is a super-gravity brooch! The signature memento of the Tita people. The last time the Arbiter interview group came to Titatitan Star for a courtesy call, they were only awarded 2."
The worth of this object was immeasurable in money. It was a symbol of the Tita people's respect.
What was going on? Who were these people?
Jasper was speechless. The bunch of people who had left dejected just a while ago had now become guests so important. Wearing the brooch elevated them to have no better on Tita Star, and was definitely the highest form of reception.
And besides, they were the first party to use the Governor's specially reserved floor. The entire hotel was in a stir. Who were these saints? A group of people started forward to ask, but it was nothing special. The members' suitcases were emblazoned with Little Lucky Star's company logo, and this could be easily checked via Skylink.
"Little Lucky Star, daily products... main product, sanitary towels?"
"Maybe, they specially researched some customized daily products for the Titatitans, and were acknowledged by Governor Mu Sen."
"F*ck off, who are you kidding!"
"It's either a mistake, or they're here for some special purpose. Perhaps this is all just a cover."
The discussion was fervent, and they had moved from unremarkable to the center of attention in just an instant.
Just at that moment, a commotion came from the entrance. More than 10 hovercrafts flew in to stop in front of the hotel door. It was clear that they had blazed their way over.
"Who would it be? Can't they see that there's a recep..."
Some people were about to stop their advance, but the car door opened, and all were silenced.
"Council member Lan has arrived!"
Lan Ling, the young miss of the Lan family, and the governer of Lan Kao City, and also the owner of a third of Titatitan star.
Following the daily developments of Titatitan Star, the Lan family's position, whether amongst the Tita people, or in the Milky Way Alliance, was becoming more and more important, even affecting the business world. Every facet of Titatitan was inextricably connected to the Lan family. Here, without the Lan family's cooperation, no business activity could begin.
In an instant, everybody froze, then curiosity began to get the better of them. What was Lan Ling doing here, and an unannounced visit to boot? Logically, when a person of her status went anywhere, she would be preceded by many others, who would organize various things, and take care of the security issue. But this time, such things were clearly absent, which meant that Lan Ling had directly come over.
The question was why she had rushed over in a hurry, and why she had brought so many people with her. What was she intending to do?
And then everybody watched as Lan Ling quickened her steps towards the Little Lucky Star company people on the red carpet. And those who thought it was all a mistake were rendered speechless.
"You bad Yan Xiaosu! How dare you not contact me when you arrived? You have no sincerity!"
Lan Ling berated him, then turned to Old Yan with a smile."Uncle, nice to meet you. So sorry that we were supposed to receive you, but the secretary messed up the timing."
Old Yan was completely flustered. Of course he knew who Lan Ling was, as a familiar face on the Skylink internet. A council member, the heir of the Lan family, and one of the owners of the Titatitan Star. He had never thought to meet such a person, and now he was "Uncle"?
"Not at all, not at all. The esteemed council representative is busy. You are too kind." Old Yan had no idea how to respond. That brat had hidden so much from them. He had always said he had connections, but who would have thought it was to this extent.
Jasper and his female secretary were completely dumbfounded. Lan Ling's aloofness and distance was famous. Let alone financial groups, but she did not give face to even the Aslan Empire, who virtually could not be refused in the entire Milky Way. But they were actually swept out the door by Tita, and not even an ambassador was allowed in. Furthermore, Aslan residents were not allowed in. This was unheard of.
Looking at Lan Ling, and then at the little drab fatty, he suddenly felt like the country bumpkin...
"I've already informed Elder Mu Sen. He will come over after attending to matters." Lan Ling smiled. Wang Zheng had said that this unremarkable fatty in front of her eyes was practically his brother. Without saying anything else, Lan Ling and Mu Sen knew what it meant.
There was utter confusion all around them, and manager Mickey was passing out from relief and fear. He now knew that if they had left, he would not have been let off with a simple dismissal.
He blankly watched as Lan Ling led Yan Xiaosu's party into the lift...
Without doubt, Ivy Hotel was not going to have a quiet night.
While others were training in their mecha, Wang Zheng finished the necessary training for him to enter the Saint level. The training did not hold much use for Wang Zheng, but more importantly, he could train the 32 Point Blade Techniques.
32 Point Blade Techniques gave Wang Zheng a completely different feel. Normally, mastering a technique required prodigious amounts of time. From figuring it all out to accumulating experience, even a talented genius would take years.
But the World of Saints was different. The training difficulty here was vastly lowered. As Wang Zheng saw it, this was also the best way to keep the techniques secret, allowing one to enjoy the power enabled by the cultivation technique, but not knowing that the most important process had been neglected.
Although Wang Zheng could not fully experience it, but he had the foundation of Primordial Regression Technique. Through some small tricks, his gains were considerably more than average. 32 Point Blade Techniques was regarded as not bad even in the Saint level, but was less flashy compared to the more specialized arts. However, Wang Zheng could feel that the Blade Techniques and his own Primordial Regression Technique were responding in a marvelous fashion.
A pity; if he could only obtain the specific process of this technique, he would have almost complete mastery of this technique, and apply it everywhere - Forcing it was not too much of a problem. But now all he could do was master the effects, which made Wang Zheng feel as helpless as a cat scratching.
With the support of the 32 Point Blade Techniques, Wang Zheng felt even more confident, and directly entered the Disciple Level.
Atomic Burst training. Others saw it as unimportant, but Wang Zheng was intrigued by this move. He had always stood by his decision, and now that he was more prepared, there should be some new changes.
Some had been looking forward to Charcoal's entry to the Saint level raptly, thinking that he was about to shake things up. But he had disappeared quietly without a sound.
And Wang Zheng, who was now immersed in grueling training, did indeed feel things were different. He was conducting repeated experiments.
He had not mastered the Atomic Burst, but he had gained an unexpected reward - analysis.
The first step of Atomic Burst was to analyze the target, down to its basic components. This was also the most difficult thing. Hugging the huge stone, Wang Zheng activated his Primordial Regression Technique. Nothing that existed could stray out of the 5 affinities. They were all fundamentally the same. Then, he used his mental energy to permeate it.
This was a sublime feeling. The same stone now gave Wang Zheng a completely different understanding, almost as if the stone was alive. Perhaps more accurate, it "was"!
Everything in the entire universe "was" for the purpose of existence.
Primordial Regression Technique was like a chopping board. the target a fish, and Blade Techniques was the knife. Begin dissection...
The entire process was silent and unmoving. Wang Zheng looked like he had fallen asleep hugging the rock.
Snow Li was also in the World of Saints, looking for Wang Zheng. She felt freer here. There were less limitations than the real world.
Snow Li had added Wang Zheng as a friend, and opening the tracker, quickly located his position. He was actually in the Disciple level.
After Wang Zheng had entered the Saint level, Snow Li had entered soon after. To her, it was no big issue. Many of the Elite Academy students were here just to enjoy the process. The different realms did not hold too much meaning for those of the Elite Academy. Perhaps others enjoyed it more because they were deprived of a chance like Elite Academy X.
The brilliance of reality was not something that simulations could imitate.
Snow Li found Wang Zheng's location. Disciple level... Atomic Burst training...
Disciple level training was undoubtedly the easiest, and therefore also the most meaningless. Given Wang Zheng's ability, why would he be here?
Strange.
But after she saw the contents of the training, she was swayed as well. How could such a thing possibly exist in this world?
