A sudden intrusion startled Ling Feng, who was rapidly absorbing knowledge about the world's changes.
He turned his head and realized the ground of the base seemed to be vibrating. Besides an earthquake, the only other thing that could cause such a commotion was that colossal creature outside!
That's right!
Although the beast had submitted, he had indeed been gone for a considerable time. It was normal for it to become restless.
"I, it's my fault. I should have familiarized myself with the test subject first!"
Zhou Jin stammered an admission of fault.
Ling Feng chuckled and shook his head. "Let's go out and take a look. I've learned enough!"
Li Tianjiao couldn't help but yawn and patted Ling Feng's shoulder. "You seem to be doing alright. Even after being frozen for three years, your psychological state is quite healthy. That eases my worries. I have some matters to attend to at the Elder Council, so I'll be heading back!"
"Don't go yet, there's something we need to do!"
Ling Feng stopped Li Tianjiao directly.
Li Tianjiao blinked in surprise, looking at Ling Feng curiously. "What is it? You've asked enough questions tonight. You should have a thorough understanding of the current world's changes by now. I don't know as much as you do!"
His words brought a wry smile to the faces of those around them.
Indeed, they had been constantly answering Ling Feng's questions all evening. They hadn't seen him for so long, which explained his relentless questioning.
Ling Feng shook his head at Li Tianjiao. "You previously announced to the public that I am the Chief Director of the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall. I haven't appeared for three years. What do you think the current cohesion of the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall is like?"
Li Tianjiao's mouth twitched, and then he gave Ling Feng a wry smile. "Actually, there have been rumors circulating that you are dead. If it weren't for the War God Corps holding the fort, the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall would have likely removed you as Chief Director by now!"
Ling Feng smiled playfully. "Heh, is that so? You were the one who provided the startup capital with me back then. What, you want to remove me? You want to take over?"
Li Tianjiao directly rolled his eyes at Ling Feng. "Nonsense, get to the point if you have something to say. What, are you eager to show your face to all the martial artists in our Huaxia at the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's emotions surged, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Clearly, many were looking forward to Ling Feng, the Zhenbei Heavenly Venerate and Chief Director of the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall, appearing before all martial artists.
Ling Feng's gaze sharpened.
"Of course, I will appear. But when I do, I want to make a splash. Didn't you all say that our martial arts hall's influence abroad has been severely suppressed? And that the Evolution Hall, led by the United States, has become even more powerful?"
As he spoke, Ling Feng's eyes flashed with killing intent.
The Evolution Hall.
It was an organization initially formed by some superpowered individuals in the United States. They were initially no match for the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall, which had branches worldwide.
However, with the support of many financial groups, the continuous influx of powerful individuals, and their early acquisition of biochemical agents that could alter human physique and enhance strength, the Evolution Hall gradually expanded its territory. Eventually, the All-Nation Martial Arts Hall was largely forced to withdraw from foreign markets.
Over the past three years, the foreign market had been heavily suppressed, leaving virtually no possibility of maintaining a presence.
Ling Feng was unsure of the full extent of the combined forces behind all this, but he was certain that the Liu Zhiguang Group was involved. They claimed to possess the highest quality evolution agents in the world.
Furthermore, there was a company in the United States that produced martial artist equipment, holding a significant global market share.
Most countries that remained had to procure from them.
It was only because Huaxia's martial artists persisted in their own cultivation path, supported by their own biochemical technology companies and martial artist equipment technology companies, coupled with the presence of numerous powerful individuals and supreme powerhouses like the War God Corps, that they were not overly affected.
However, this influence was becoming increasingly unstoppable.
People who fawned over foreign things have never been lacking throughout history.
In simple terms, the strength of martial arts cultivation had ultimately lost to the power of technology over these three years.
This was not what Ling Feng wanted to see.
He himself was proof of the power of cultivation. Even without external assistance, Ling Feng was sufficiently powerful.
Therefore, Ling Feng intended to make the entire world witness this.
Moreover, he intended to make someone compensate for this three-year blank period, this period of rapid development and missed opportunities, and make those people pay the price.
The Liu Zhiguang Group, or rather the Liu family behind it, was precisely the one to pay this price!
As killing intent emanated from Ling Feng, everyone understood his intentions.
The Black man Watt and Master Hu followed behind, trembling. They had visited Huaxia's most advanced biochemical technology laboratory today.
They had also learned many classified secrets, and all of it was incredibly shocking to them.
At least in Watt's understanding, the Liu family's technology was definitely incomparable to what was here.
Of course, none of this was important.
What mattered was Ling Feng's strength.
With such a War God in Huaxia, let alone the Liu Zhiguang Group of the Liu family, even the entire United States could not dominate the world through technological might.
Ling Feng could easily shake their currently advantageous position!
If Huaxia was a sleeping dragon for the past three years, then with Ling Feng's return, this dragon had begun to awaken.
Once fully awakened, all global powers would only be able to look up to this dragon!
All the powerhouses would tremble at Ling Feng's feet!
"Alright, how do you plan to do it? I'll arrange it for you, guaranteeing maximum impact!"
Li Tianjiao's eyes lit up, and a thrilled smile curved his lips. "Those scoundrels from the Evolution Hall are indeed becoming more and more arrogant. If you could step forward and show your skills, it would undoubtedly..."
"No need for such trouble."
Ling Feng casually interrupted Li Tianjiao and then pointed at the restless King Kong Ape in the hall outside, sneering. "Just taking it out for a stroll is enough!"
Li Tianjiao was stunned, then his face turned red as he repeatedly nodded at Ling Feng.
Clearly, Li Tianjiao completely agreed with Ling Feng's approach!
Zhou Jin and the others beside them were also excited.
They were eager to witness Ling Feng display his kingly presence!
However, just as everyone was getting excited, Ji Yunyue bit her lower lip and said, "This arrangement will surely take some time, won't it?"
Ling Feng looked at Ji Yunyue in confusion. "Yes, why?"
Ji Yunyue shook her head and said, "Have you forgotten? Today is your birthday. Siqi and the others have been celebrating your birthday for the past three years. I promised to bring a gift back today, which is you..."
