#10 - The Song Family Girl's Request (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

Just as Zhao Chenghua was preparing to continue verbally attacking his son.

Zhao's mother appeared, interrupting him.

"Old Zhao, say a little less..."

The mother's eyes were still red.

She looked at her son, her eyes filled with disappointment, but more with regret and heartache.

"Say a little less?"

Zhao Chenghua retorted angrily, "Do you know that when the Spirit Realm opens next month, your son will be forcibly teleported in? With the trash talent he's fused with, he's likely to die inside!"

"Scolding him is light; I wish I could beat him to death! At least, if he dies here, I can collect his corpse, but if he dies in the Spirit Realm, I won't even see his body..."

Speaking of the end, Zhao Chenghua's tone was full of sadness.

And the "Spirit Realm" he spoke of is what everyone calls the Land of Transcendence.

In fact, the Spirit Realm is very dangerous; it also has another name, called the "Land of the Uncanny"!

Because within the Spirit Realm, there exist many incomprehensible monsters, They are the embodiment of chaos, and even merely looking at Them can cause a normal person to suffer severe mental trauma instantly, turning them into madmen or idiots!

Without a strong enough talent and strength, entering the Spirit Realm is a near-death experience.

The Spirit Realm opens once a month.

Once opened, most transcendents will be forcibly teleported into the arena to enter the Spirit Realm for adventure.

If they can successfully return alive, they will receive rewards from the Spirit Realm, thereby becoming stronger.

This is also the main channel for most transcendents to improve their strength!

Want to retire? Is that possible?

Of course!

They only have one son, Zhao Zheng!

Their son, whom they painstakingly raised, is about to face a near-death situation, how could they not be heartbroken?

He Wenli's crying also affected Zhao Chenghua.

Although Zhao Chenghua didn't cry, he closed his eyes and couldn't say anything anymore.

Looking closely, you could see his hands, hidden in his sleeves, trembling uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Zhao Zheng knew he should do something...

"Dad, Mom, don't worry!"

He deliberately revealed a confident smile and said, "In your eyes, am I, your son, really that stupid? I'm not even married to Song Haitang; how could I give away such a precious and rare natural fruit for nothing?"

It had to be said.

His behavior really attracted his parents' attention.

Seeing Zhao Zheng's confident smile, the old couple were a little surprised and uncertain.

He Wenli immediately asked, "What do you mean? Son, explain yourself clearly. Is there another secret to what you did...?"

Zhao Chenghua also stared closely at his son, waiting for his answer.

"Actually, in the past month, I've been having the same dream every night..."

Zhao Zheng started to deceive them, talking about foreseeing the future in his dreams, receiving guidance from immortals in the sacred land, and so on!

He had to deceive them.

If he chose to tell the truth, telling his parents that he was actually transmigrated, it was really hard to say how his parents would view him and whether they could accept him...

Zhao Zheng didn't want to test human nature; deception was the best choice.

"...All the signs prove that this Kryptonian bloodline is not simple, and aren't the rules in the sacred land that the stronger the opportunity, the rarer it is? That's why I decided to take a gamble! It's not really because of some bullsh*t love!"

When Zhao Zheng finished speaking, the old couple looked at each other, somewhat...unaccepting.

His parents were both smart people and wouldn't be easily deceived.

"Then you've already fused with it now. Have you discovered anything powerful?" Zhao Chenghua asked with a disbelieving expression.

Zhao Zheng said, "I just fused with it; how could it be so fast? Wait a few months and see!"

He didn't want to hide it from his parents, but the secret that Kryptonians get stronger by sunbathing was too bizarre.

Most importantly, it's not easy to explain!

Even if his parents believed him, if they asked how he knew, Zhao Zheng would find it difficult to explain.

It's better to wait until he produces results and then show them to his parents, which would be more convincing.

In addition, in Zhao Zheng's impression, his father, Zhao Chenghua, liked to talk nonsense when he was drunk, blurting out everything, which his mother had argued with him about many times.

Although Zhao Chenghua had tried to change and now drank less, Zhao Zheng still had to be careful.

The secret that Kryptonians get stronger by sunbathing is of utmost importance; it's better for him to keep this secret to himself for now.

The meaning of "a secret is spoiled by being told" is something Zhao Zheng still knew.

Being able to tell his parents this much, so that they wouldn't worry anymore, was already him trusting them very much.

There was also one very important point!

Zhao Zheng had checked on his phone earlier, and among the two cases of Kryptonian bloodline cards that had appeared in the history of the sacred land, one had died early in the Spirit Realm.

The second person, however, had extremely heaven-defying luck, actually managing to survive ten Spirit Realm trips without dying, and was still alive to this day.

Although that person was already over eighty years old and had long retired, Zhao Zheng was still wary of him.

He didn't want a second Kryptonian powerhouse to appear on this planet!

...

At this time, his mother, He Wenli, was almost persuaded by Zhao Zheng.

She was a woman, a little more emotional, not to mention that Zhao Zheng was her son, a relative she trusted unconditionally.

In comparison, Zhao Chenghua was much more rational and not so easily deceived by Zhao Zheng.

"Wait a few months? Wait for my ass! What do you think the Spirit Realm is..."

Before he could finish speaking.

Old Fourth's excited voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Third Brother! Third Brother! Come out quickly, there's good news!!"

The three people in the room were all stunned.

Zhao Chenghua glared at Zhao Zheng and quickly walked out.

He Wenli and Zhao Zheng were also very curious about what good news there was, and quickly followed to see.

In the yard.

Fourth Uncle "Zhao Chengwu" was chatting with a strange middle-aged man. Seeing Third Brother come out, he immediately introduced him:

"Third Brother, this Mr. Zhang is a special recruiter from Zhenwu University..."

"Hello, hello! Welcome, Mr. Zhang..."

Hearing the name Zhenwu University, Zhao Chenghua didn't dare to neglect him and immediately stepped forward to shake hands with the other party.

"I wonder why Mr. Zhang is here?"

"Oh! I'm here to deliver an admission notice."

The middle-aged man surnamed Zhang said, "On behalf of Zhenwu University, I am notifying your son, Zhao Zheng, that he has been admitted to our school. Please have Zhao Zheng prepare as soon as possible to register at Zhenwu University within four days."

As soon as these words came out, the Zhao Zheng family of three was a little surprised.

Zhao Chenghua couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zhang, could you be mistaken? My son's talent...shouldn't meet the standards of your esteemed school."

Zhenwu University, among the transcendent universities, is among the top ten, with strong faculty and has cultivated many well-known powerhouses. It is a famous school that is famous throughout the country.

The admission requirements of such a famous school are naturally much higher than ordinary schools.

No matter how you look at it, the Kryptonian talent that Zhao Zheng fused with doesn't meet the requirements of Zhenwu University.

"There's no mistake!"

Mr. Zhang glanced at Zhao Zheng, who was standing behind, before explaining the reason.

"Mr. Zhao, you should already know about what happened at your son's school before."

"After Zhao Zheng obtained the Flare-Flare Fruit, he gave it to Song Haitang, who needed it more. I personally express my admiration for Zhao Zheng's magnanimity and generosity!"

"Of course, what really made us decide to admit Zhao Zheng was Song Haitang!"

"After Zhao Zheng left, Song Haitang was fought over by various colleges and universities. Facing the olive branches thrown by the schools, Song Haitang turned a blind eye. She only made one request!"

"Her request was that she must enter the same university as Zhao Zheng!!"

"Regarding Song Haitang's request, our Zhenwu University has already agreed..."
