Chapter 92 - Competition to Rope in Talent
Chapter 92 Competition to Rope in Talent
“What are the benefits of joining these five major factions?”
With so many choices, Lin Feng could not just make a choice arbitrarily. He had to find out more first.
“Of course there are benefits. For example, there are some special martial arts that can only be obtained after joining a certain faction. There are also some internal benefits for the faction, and so on. You’ll naturally understand once you join the faction in the future. The process of roping in Metamorphic Realm martial artists is generally fair. Of course, there are actually some unspoken rules.”
“Unspoken rules?”
Lin Feng was very curious. What unspoken rules?
“Haha, it’s actually very simple. For example, you are a student of the Myriad Academy, and you broke the genetic lock at the Dragon Mountain Base in the Myriad Academy’s sphere of influence. You have a natural affinity to the Myriad Academy. This is the unspoken rule.”
Long Duo was very frank, and Lin Feng could not help but agree inwardly. Indeed, he was already leaning towards the Myriad Academy in the depths of his heart. The reason he did not agree immediately was just that he was a little curious about the other factions.
“Which of the five major factions is the strongest?”
“The strongest faction? Actually, all the major factions have their own unique advantages. If we really want to compare power, the academic faction’s power should be the strongest. The reason is very simple. The academic faction is mainly composed of the top three martial arts academies in the world, and the founder of each academy is a Sage. Therefore, the academic faction alone has three Sages. Following it are the military and government factions, which have two Sages each. The consortium faction and Freelance Cultivators Union come last, with one Sage each.
“This is a division of overall strength, but every faction has its own advantages. For example, the consortium faction might not have very strong high-end military power, but their financial resources are formidable. Just the consortium faction alone controls more than 50% of the world’s wealth. In terms of wealth, the consortium faction must come top among the five factions.
“The government faction and military faction can arrange many high-ranking administrative or military positions. Moreover, there is a lot of advanced scientific research within government and military factions. For example, Professor Wei Yuan is actually a scientist from the government faction. It was because our Dragon Mountain Base urgently requested him to come and even paid a small price to the government faction that Professor Wei Yuan and his team came to Dragon Mountain Base in the end.
“The Freelance Cultivators Union has a high degree of freedom. Although they would also figh on the frontline, due to their overall strength being relatively weak, the Freelance Cultivators Union’s sphere of influence does not extend to many dangerous areas. Overall, there would also be many people who enjoy a safe and carefree life. Not everyone has the opportunity to reach the peak of martial arts.
“Our academic faction has many advantages. The greatest advantage is that we have archived many profound martial arts. After all, we have three Sages, and they are the top Sages. Be it high-end combat power or overall strength, we are the strongest. Of course, there are also disadvantages. For example, we are definitely far behind the consortium faction in terms of wealth. As for government and the military matters, our academic faction can’t interfere either.”
Hearing this, Lin Feng gradually understood the advantages of the five major factions.
Seeing that Lin Feng was considering the options, Long Duo said with a smile, “Lin Feng, go back and consider it carefully. Don’t rush, and choose carefully. The impact of joining a certain faction is huge. I will report your contributions truthfully. I believe the Hero of Humanity Medal will definitely be awarded to you.”
Lin Feng also stood up and bade farewell to Long Duo. The martial law in Dragonlith City was not lifted yet, and no one could leave. He could also take this opportunity to understand his own situation properly.
Seeing Lin Feng’s departing back, a trace of envy appeared in Long Duo’s eyes. He muttered in a low voice, “I’m really envious. Not only will you obtain the Hero of Humanity Medal, the five major factions will be competing to rope you in. However, you must not be seduced by the temporary benefits of the moment. I hope you can make the right choice.”
After returning to his room, Lin Feng somehow did not feel the least bit tired, despite having fought a huge battle previously.
Perhaps it was because he was still undergoing metamorphosis. His body seemed to be undergoing tremendous changes at every moment. Endless power surged into his body constantly.
This feeling was amazing. It was as if he had infinite energy every day, and his entire being had changed.
Lin Feng prepared to go to the forum of the Myriad Academy to take a look. He wanted to learn more about the details of the metamorphosis after breaking the genetic lock. After all, the metamorphosis period was relatively long, and it was an extremely important period for Metamorphic Realm martial artists.
Buzz. Buzz.
Suddenly, Lin Feng’s communicator vibrated. He realized that it was an unfamiliar communication request.
Lin Feng found it a little strange. There were only a few people who knew his contact number, and almost no strangers contacted him. Why did a stranger suddenly contact him today?
Although he had some doubts, Lin Feng quickly connected the call.
“Are you Mr. Lin Feng?” A woman’s voice came from the other end of the communicator.
“It’s me. You are?”
“Allow me to introduce myself first. My name is Tai Ya, and I am liasing with Mr. Lin Feng on behalf of the consortium faction. I believe you know about the five major factions, Mr. Lin Feng? Although you are from the Myriad Academy, the five major factions can compete fairly for someone who has broken the genetic lock. The conditions of our consortium faction are very generous. Once Mr. Lin Feng chooses to join our consortium faction, we can provide Mr. Lin Feng with 300 billion yuan’s worth of wealth or resources. We can also provide you a book on martial arts cultivation techniques that absorb Astral Power and a high-level martial art created by a Sage for free.”
Hearing the conditions offered by the consortium faction on the other end of the line, Lin Feng was very taken aback. He was not just shocked, but extremely so, and even vaguely frightened.
They actually offered 300 billion yuan on the get-go. That was incredible. Lin Feng’s father, Lin Xiong, built the Lin Corporation from scratch with decades of hard work, and it was only 100 billion yuan in total worth.
Lin Feng had only broken the genetic lock, but the consortium faction could casually give away 300 billion. The difference was stunning
“I’ll think about it.”
Lin Feng naturally did not agree immediately. No matter how good the other party’s conditions were, he had to consider it carefully.
001
As soon as he hung up the call, he received another call from an unknown number.
“Are you Mr. Lin Feng?”
“It’s me. You are?”
“My name is Long Gang. I’m contacting Mr. Lin Feng on behalf of the military faction…”
This time, it was someone from the military faction. They offered very good conditions as well. As long as Lin Feng joined, he would be able to obtain the rank of Major General. This was already an exception.
Even though Metamorphic Realm martial artists had extraordinary statuses, entering the military did not mean that they could obtain the rank of General from the start. In order to rope in Lin Feng, the military was indeed willing to pay a tall price, and was full of sincerity.
Aside from the military faction, the government faction and the Freelance Cultivators Union also contacted Lin Feng next. All of them offered extremely generous conditions, which stunned Lin Feng.
Could it be that all Metamorphic Realm martial artists who broke the genetic lock could obtain so many benefits? This had really exceeded Lin Feng’s expectations.
