Chapter 207 - 207: 207: The Rising Wind and Scudding Clouds in Ice City

Lin Zhen’s harvest from the Star Fruit Tree this time could be described as quite generous.

Thinking about withdrawing money from the bank counter earlier, as each sum of money was transferred, Lin Zhen couldn’t help but smile at the astonished expression of the bank teller.

He had transferred all the money from the bank cards he obtained from

Brother Guang into his own card, and the passwords on the paper Brother Guang gave him were all correct. The total amount was indeed 300 billion, which was somewhat beyond Lin Zhen’s expectations.

In addition to that, Lin Zhen sold all the insect crystals he had obtained from the Star Fruit Tree over the past two years to the Science and Technology Department of the Capital Base City, gaining a total of 28 billion.

With the money already in Lin Zhen’s card, his total balance had now exceeded 430 billion. This didn’t even include the thick stack of bills in his hand, which Lin Zhen had counted to be 220, totaling 110 billion.

According to Lin Zhen’s plan, he wanted to stay in the Capital for a few days.

Just now, he had already ordered vitality potions that would be delivered soon. Once he got them, he would exchange the 110 billion and return to Ice City.

Just as Lin Zhen laid down and was about to call home, the phone rang.

Picking up the phone, he saw that the caller was actually Zhao Liang.

Answering the call, Lin Zhen happily said, “Brother Zhao, long time no see.”

However, Zhao Liang on the other side of the phone seemed quite anxious, “Lin

Zhen… It’s really you. You’ve come out of the God Generals Training Camp.” “Yeah, I just came out a few days ago. Brother Zhao, how did you know I was

“Little brother Lin, you’re still in the dark. Things are heating up now.” “Brother Zhao, what’s going on? Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Sigh! Today, the Grand Pavilion Master called and spoke to Dongfang Pavilion

Master, and they started arguing on the phone for some reason. Then,

Dongfang Pavilion Master was removed from his position. The new Pavilion

Master of Gale is now Tong Yuehu.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhen felt a chill in his heart. Yue Zhenhua acted rather fast.

Without asking, Lin Zhen knew the reason why Dongfang Jun was taken down. It must have been because Dongfang Jun refused to comply with the order to drive Lin Zhen out, which led to Yue Zhenhua revoking his position.

Now, the Pavilion Master was the former Vice Pavilion Master Tong Yuehu. Lin

Zhen had no good feelings towards this man, who was the uncle of Shen Yuhua. In terms of character and temperament, he was worlds apart from Dongfang Jun.

Zhao Liang continued, “Dongfang Jun Pavilion Master didn’t accept Yue Zhenhua’s new appointment, but instead chose to leave Gale voluntarily. He has already left, and Tong Yuehu is organizing a meeting with the elders to discuss the issue. It seems they’re going to… kick you out of the Martial Arts Hall.”

Lin Zhen pondered for a moment, “If they want to kick me out, then so be it. I don’t care.”

“Little brother, it seems that you really don’t understand the situation. Nowadays, among the War Gods, you absolutely need a Martial Arts Hall as backing. Those who don’t have this backing will not be recognized by the War God Alliance. If you can’t get certified, there will be many things that will be inconvenient.”

Lin Zhen was well aware of these things, and said lightly, “If I’m not welcomed here, there’s bound to be a place for me elsewhere. Gale isn’t the only Martial Arts Hall. I can always find a place to stay.”

“Sigh, if only it were that simple. The War God Alliance in Ice City currently only recognizes the top ten Martial Arts Halls’ War Gods. Over the years, Dongfang Pavilion Master has been doing very well in Ice City, and Gale is now the number one Martial Arts Hall.”

“Now, many War God powerhouses have far surpassed Changfeng and Dragon Slayer in terms of influence. If Gale kicks you out, the other Martial Arts Halls would not dare to accept you. Besides, Martial Arts Halls like Changfeng and Dragon Slayer have grudges with you. Tong Yuehu has already communicated with them, and no Martial Arts Hall ranked in the top ten will accept you.” Upon hearing this, Lin Zhen realized the seriousness of the situation.

Yue Zhenhua was really ruthless, using his position as the Grand Pavilion Master of Gale to manipulate the situation. With just one word from him, none of the Martial Arts Halls would be willing to offend him for Lin Zhen’s sake.

If the top ten Martial Arts Halls didn’t accept him, then Lin Zhen would not be able to gain the War God Alliance’s certification in Ice City, and everything would be inconvenient for him in the future.

Zhao Liang continued, “Also, if you are kicked out of the Martial Arts Hall, your family can’t stay in the villa area either. These are all issues. If you have time, try to come back as soon as possible. Things are getting messy here.” “Alright, I’ll be back tomorrow.” Lin Zhen immediately agreed.

“Okay, I’ll let you know if there’s any news.”

After hanging up the call from Zhao Liang, Lin Zhen stood up. Although his shoulder injury hadn’t healed yet, he couldn’t wait any longer.

He first called home, and his father Lin Liye answered the phone. As soon as his mother Li Qin heard it was Lin Zhen, she ran over, concerned, and asked Lin Zhen a series of questions. In the end, Lin Zhen told them he would be home tomorrow.

Previously, since his injuries hadn’t healed, Lin Zhen didn’t want to go home to worry them. Now, although it is still not advisable to battle, there is no problem with his mobility.

Mother Li Qin also specifically asked Lin Zhen if he had a girlfriend and when he would give them a grandchild. Lin Zhen thought of Su Mingyue, but didn’t tell his parents about her since their relationship was still uncertain.

Instead, Mother Li Qin said she had someone in mind and would introduce her to Lin Zhen when he returned. Lin Zhen casually responded.

These were not big issues compared to having nowhere to go after being kicked out of Gale Martial Arts Hall. Lin Zhen started to check the martial artists forum of Ice City Base City on his phone.

After not checking it for several years, it seemed that the Ice City martial artists’ forum had become even more lively. A few top headlines caught Lin Zhen’s attention.

“Gale Pavilion Master replaced, Dongfang Jun swept out the door by headquarters, Tong Yuehu takes over.”

“Gale destroys the Great Wall, strongly supporting Dongfang Jun’s reinstatement!”

“Insider news, Dongfang Jun was removed from his position due to Lin Zhen,

Tong Yuehu took command in this crisis and intended to drive Lin Zhen out of

“Breaking news, influenced by the fall of Cape Town Base City, the World War God Alliance will be merged, and War God’s Knockout will be held soon to determine the rankings of each country. Internal selections are being held around the world, and War Gods recommended by militaries, governments, Gods Clan, and the top ten martial arts halls in Hua Xia can participate…”

Lin Zhen hadn’t expected the news to spread so quickly—all the gossip was reminiscent of the network era in the AD calendar. It was impossible to keep secrets.

He randomly clicked on a post about Dongfang Jun being removed from his position because of him.

After opening it, there were all sorts of comments inside.

“I support Tong Yuehu; he has made significant contributions to Gale’s development in recent years. Dongfang Jun was stubborn and should have been taken down long ago. Lin Zhen is merely the straw that broke the camel’s back.”

“Can anyone tell me who Lin Zhen is?”

“I agree with the first comment, Pavilion Master Tong is mighty!”

“Lin Zhen is nothing but a clown. He may be unrecognizable to new people, but he indeed caused a stir in Ice City years ago. These years he has disappeared after attending the God Generals Training Camp; I hated him long ago.”

“Inside scoop, Lin Zhen apparently had an affair in the God Generals Training Camp with a woman and got into a fight with a young master from the Capital over jealousy, then committed murder while drunk. This time, his enemies are targeting him, and Dongfang Jun was ousted for covering up Lin Zhen’s crimes.”

“I just want to say gently: doesn’t anyone remember what Lin Zhen did three years ago?”

“What use is it to remember? In this world, War Gods make the rules. There are many Warriors and War Generals who have earned fame, but they are all fleeting; rankings in the War God Alliance are ultimately determined by the strength of War Gods.”

Lin Zhen stopped reading at this point. He checked the IP addresses of several people who were particularly harsh on him and found that some were from the Capital, while others were from Gale itself. Undoubtedly, Yue Zhenhua was trying to tarnish his reputation completely.

Leaving Gale was irreversible. Lin Zhen first called Dongfang Jun, as he was involved in the matter. Unfortunately, Dongfang Jun’s phone was turned off, and it was unclear where he had gone.

Lin Zhen then checked the current rankings of Ice City Base City on the internet.

The top three rankings remained unchanged, with Gale, Changfeng, and Dragon Slayer.

The martial arts halls behind them experienced slight changes, but overall, there was not much difference. The Shadow Dance Martial Arts Academy ranked ninth, while Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall, once at the peak, had now fallen to the tenth place.

After recruiting several Russian disciples, Blue Sky once ranked in the top three; but after Lin Zhen got rid of those Russians, Blue Sky became unpopular in Ice City, and business was increasingly deserted. In recent years, the hall master Yang Jianying of Blue Sky had been trying hard to engage in charity work to restore their reputation, but the results were not significant, especially as few strong War God-level experts joined.

The backbone of a martial arts hall was War Gods; they were the ultimate focus. There were many legends about War Gods, and according to people’s mindset, only War Gods were the real strong ones. Warriors and War Generals could not make a big impact.

Over the past three years, Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall’s ranking had declined to tenth place. Lin Zhen looked at his martial arts hall from his previous life and sighed.

Many things had changed since his rebirth, and Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall was one of them.

After browsing for a while, Lin Zhen could not think of any martial arts hall that might consider taking him in. He would have to return to Ice City first.

At this time, the vitality potion Lin Zhen had ordered arrived. Just as he was about to close the website, Lin Zhen saw another piece of news:

“Gale Martial Arts Hall’s Master Yue Zhenhua signs a charity investment agreement, donating 10 billion and personally attending the donation event, receiving people’s support for this loving act.”

In the image, Yue Zhenhua had just left Gale Martial Arts Hall, wearing a black suit, looking like he had recovered from the grief of losing his son.

“Heh, he still has money to donate to charity but is really good at putting on a show. Yue Zhenhua, perhaps I should give you a gift too..”
