A progress bar directly overwrites Aika Iijima's information.
Then, the intelligent program quickly informed Gao Jianfei, "Dear user, I will now immediately access the Level 3 Ghost database to select a Level 3 Ghost with strong martial arts skills for you!"
After saying that, the intelligent program fell silent for a full two minutes before speaking to Gao Jianfei, "Dear user, there are quite a few level 3 ghosts with martial arts strength worth 1 exorcism point. Do you have any special requirements for this type of level 3 ghost? Please tell me your requirements, and I will select one for you from this range."
"Special requirements?" Gao Jianfei was taken aback for a moment, then thought about it briefly.
If you were to assemble a level 3 ghost with superior swordsmanship and knife skills, you might have the advantage of having better weapons. However, in certain situations, carrying swords and knives is clearly unreasonable. After all, this is a society governed by law.
For example, even though Gao Jianfei learned Tian Boguang's quick-knife technique, he didn't dare to openly carry a cleaver. He could only carry a small knife, like a fruit knife.
Therefore, this time, Gao Jianfei absolutely refused to have another level 3 ghost skilled in swords and blades.
"To be honest, I don't have any special requirements, but I'd prefer a level 3 ghost who is skilled in hand-to-hand combat." Gao Jianfei said bluntly. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he patted his forehead. "Check if there are any level 3 ghosts who are good at acupoint striking."
Gao Jianfei also belongs to the type of person who grew up reading martial arts novels and watching martial arts TV dramas. He had longed for the amazing acupoint striking skills shown on TV for a long time. Therefore, now that he has the opportunity to imagine martial arts characters from novels, Gao Jianfei wants to try to fulfill his childhood wish and become an acupoint striking master!
"Hmm. Dear user, I understand your request! You want to find a level 3 martial arts ghost that is skilled in acupoint striking! Okay, dear user, please wait a moment, I will immediately filter through all level 3 martial arts ghosts for you!"
The intelligent program remained silent for two minutes before saying, "Got it! Dear user, I have found you a level 3 acupoint-striking ghost! He is a character from a fictional martial arts novel, and his martial arts are inherited from his ancestors. His martial arts originate from the fictional 'Dali' martial arts school in the martial arts world. One of the most famous martial arts techniques of this school is acupoint striking! Since this is a level 3 martial arts ghost, you will need to pay 1 exorcism point if you want him. Do you want him?"
Upon hearing the description from the intelligent program, Gao Jianfei immediately formed his own guess... Damn it, this time, I can figure it out, right? The martial arts school of Dali, which excels at acupoint striking, must be the martial arts of the 'Dali Duan Family'! Haha! Could it be the One-Finger Divine Skill? Could it be the Six Meridian Divine Sword?
"Let's get started immediately!" Gao Jianfei said directly.
Immediately, jumbled radio waves flashed on the virtual display screen, and then, two minutes later, a data description appeared directly in Gao Jianfei's field of vision!
Just as expected!
The level 3 ghost that appeared this time really is a member of the Dali Duan family!
Ghost's name / Ghost's level / Ghost's origin / Gender / Special skills in life /
Zhu Changling / 3 / The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber / Male / One-Finger Divine Skill (Intercontinental Level)
"Hiss!" Gao Jianfei gasped! It was actually...it was actually an 'intercontinental level' martial arts skill! That's incredible!
It's important to understand that Tian Boguang, the powerful level 3 ghost martial artist that Gao Jianfei previously displayed, only possessed a 'national-level' quick-sword technique. However, Zhu Changling's One-Finger Divine Skill is at the intercontinental level!
The concept of "intercontinental level" is broader than that of "national level." For example, in a certain field, if you can achieve the title of "master" in a country like Japan or China, then you are undoubtedly a national-level talent. "Intercontinental level," however, transcends the national level and reaches a level comparable to "Asia," "Europe," or "America."
To put it simply, it's like the difference between a national table tennis champion and an Asian table tennis championship.
"It seems Zhu Changling is clearly a level above Tian Boguang! Perhaps it's because the martial arts he practices are inherently more powerful! Just kidding, the One-Finger Divine Skill is a renowned and undeniable martial art in every one of Jin Yong's novels!" Gao Jianfei exclaimed excitedly. "And for a modern person, the One-Finger Divine Skill would be incredibly advantageous! It allows for assassination without weapons, using only bare hands! It can also strike pressure points, rendering enemies immobile or causing numbness throughout their bodies! Amazing, truly amazing!"
Gao Jianfei wasn't unfamiliar with Zhu Changling. In the novel *The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber*, he lured the young Zhang Wuji to his manor, setting up a series of deceptions to extract the whereabouts of Xie Xun, the Golden-Haired Lion King, from Zhang Wuji. To achieve his goal, Zhu Changling even offered his beautiful daughter, Zhu Jiuzhen, to Zhang Wuji for his amusement. He even went so far as to burn down the manor he had painstakingly built!
He was a ruthless and extremely despicable cunning fellow, but in the end, he also met a tragic end.
"Hmm, I'm very satisfied with this level 3 ghost! Now, immediately begin piecing together Zhu Changling's soul!" Gao Jianfei directly commanded the intelligent program.
Afterwards, Gao Jianfei found a set of clothes in the ghost den, changed his clothes there, did some simple styling, and prepared to attend the "Hongmen Banquet" set up by the Sakura Group that evening.
However, it was still early, so after leaving the haunted house, Gao Jianfei went online in his bedroom.
Soon, Gao Jianfei was drawn to a notification.
That's a notification that pops up directly when you open a web browser.
This document was available in multiple languages, and Gao Jianfei even saw a Chinese version! Moreover, he saw his own name on it!
So, Gao Jianfei double-clicked to open the document and began to examine it in detail.
After reading it, Gao Jianfei shook his head helplessly, "This Feng Haoyu is really impatient! He has already started preparing for the World Genius Challenge between us in three months!"
According to reports, Feng Haoyu, a former member of the Z country's national team, world tennis champion, world swimming champion, and former Real Madrid midfield maestro, has issued a challenge to world-renowned doctor Gao Jianfei. The two will compete in a month-long challenge, drawing lots to select 10 projects from 50 fields. Numerous masters and experts from various fields worldwide, major international media outlets, and countless enthusiastic fans will witness this genius challenge. The competition venues will be chosen from several cities: Paris (France), Geneva (Switzerland), Munich (Germany), Chicago (USA), London (UK), Vienna (Austria), and the capital of Z country. Officials from these cities have already consulted with Feng Haoyu and warmly invited him and Gao Jianfei to compete in their cities. It can be said that these cities, and even the countries they represent, are vying for the right to host this genius challenge!
According to reports, several cities are already vying for the right to host the Games, and the competition is almost as fierce as the bidding process for the Olympics!
A portion of the 50 competition events has also been temporarily listed...
Snooker; the traditional arts of Chinese music, chess, calligraphy, and painting; bullfighting in Spain; football (football is a team sport; if two teams are drawn into a football match, they must utilize their connections and influence in the international football community to select football stars to form a team and compete against the opposing team. It also uses a 90-minute match format and a golden goal to win); winemaking, sculpture, oil painting, traditional Chinese painting…
The above-mentioned competition items are proposed on a temporary basis.
Gao Jianfei found this both laughable and absurd.
Judging from the news, there is no doubt that Feng Haoyu has made this competition extremely professional.
Not only are some major cities putting in the same effort as bidding to host the Olympics, but even some international referees and experts are gradually being listed as invited participants. This list is being updated every day based on the number of attendees.
Because of this competition, some major websites have created professional web pages and forums, and are then promoting it extensively.
Taking the host cities as an example, 30 million netizens have already voted.
Currently, the capital of country Z has received 12 million votes, temporarily ranking first among all the host cities.
On the forum, Gao Jianfei saw that a large number of netizens expressed their support for Feng Haoyu. Among these supporters were Chinese citizens and foreigners...
"Ah! The wind! His performance at Real Madrid has won over the Spanish people! We are willing to fully support him!"
"Hey! Wind! I'm Cristiano Ronaldo! Your teammate! We heard about your match, and the entire Real Madrid team is on your side! Go for it! Haha! Three months from now, it's our match against Barcelona. After that match, we'll have a vacation, and we'll all be there to cheer you on!"
...
On the forum, not only did a large number of ordinary netizens leave messages, but even celebrities from various industries expressed their interest in the competition.
Of course, there are also those who support Gao Jianfei, such as Chinese art enthusiasts and some doctors worldwide.
However, Gao Jianfei has far fewer supporters than Feng Haoyu!
In terms of percentages, 78% of netizens support Feng Haoyu; 18% support Gao Jianfei. The remaining 4% are simply neutral observers watching the drama unfold.
Gao Jianfei shut down his computer. He shook his head. "Damn it, this has completely blown up! It's only been a few days, and tens of millions of netizens are already paying attention to this competition. If we wait until the day of the competition, I'm afraid..."
The number of followers will exceed 100 million! It will definitely exceed 100 million!
"Since that brat Feng Haoyu has made such a big fuss, if I don't retaliate effectively, the whole world will despise me! Damn it, after I finish piecing together Zhu Changling's soul, I'll try to find some high-level ghosts with expert-level skills in certain industries!"
Gao Jianfei wasn't entirely panicked. After all, he had three months to prepare, and besides, high-level ghosts from fields like football wouldn't likely cost much in terms of exorcism points to come out.
Sculptures, snooker, and the like don't cost many exorcism points either.
Back when Gao Jianfei was the blacksmith master Tang Long, didn't he only use a few hundred, close to 1,000 exorcism points?
Moreover, Gao Jianfei can also be a ghost who is proficient in several fields at the same time!
Calm down, calm down. Feng Haoyu is a genius, but Goga is a genius among geniuses!
Upon arriving, Gao Jianfei also felt an urge to laugh... All this wind and rain, holding such a grand and formal competition, was nothing more than an attempt to gain fame and publicly humiliate me. But in the end, perhaps he was the one slapping himself in the face! He was just paving the way for my own success!
Of course, this competition will inevitably require Gao Jianfei to spend a lot of exorcism points to get rid of some talented ghosts.
However, this is not a waste at all! These talents are actually of great use to Gao Jianfei's daily life and leisure activities!
Moreover, by defeating Feng Haoyu in the competition, Gao Jianfei can rightfully be recognized as an amazing genius in this world!
Didn't Gao Jianfei want to obtain a prestigious social image? Did he want to find a protective shield for himself?
This is an opportunity!
After shutting down the computer, around 6 p.m., Song Ying entered Gao Jianfei's room and reminded him that it was almost time to attend the Sakura Group's banquet.
Today, Song Ying wore carefully applied makeup of just the right intensity and a gorgeous low-cut evening gown, revealing a hint of alluring cleavage. Song Ying herself comes from a prestigious family and is a powerful and influential woman in society.
Now, wearing this expensive evening gown, paired with a dazzling necklace, earrings, and rings, she looks every bit the stunningly beautiful woman with an exceptional aura!
"Jianfei, I won't be able to drive you later. I told you we need to avoid suspicion. We can't let the Sakura Group know that we have that kind of relationship." Song Ying was quite thoughtful.
Seeing such stunning beauty, and recalling that night when she actually used her mouth to please him, Gao Jianfei's cerebral cortex was also a little congested, and a huge sense of satisfaction and conquest surged up in his mind.
"Uh... okay, once we get to the Sakura Villa, I'll pretend I don't know you." Gao Jianfei smiled.
"Heh." Song Ying seemed to be acting on impulse, taking the initiative to walk over and gently hug Gao Jianfei. "Jianfei, did you call my grandfather and tell him about us?"
Gao Jianfei was taken aback.
Song Ying immediately protested, "Jianfei! You can't deny it! We've already had that kind of relationship! You can't go back on your word!"
"Really?" Gao Jianfei gave a wry smile. "That kind of relationship? No, you just gave me oral sex... that's all."
"That counts too? Pshaw!" Song Ying gave Gao Jianfei a charming sidelong glance, then gracefully left the room. "Jianfei, hurry up! Let's go!"
As Gao Jianfei watched Song Ying's departing figure, admiring the incredibly beautiful curves of her snow-white buttocks, he couldn't help but sigh, "Damn, this must be the legendary beauty!"
After Song Ying left, Gao Jianfei didn't waste any more time. He was wearing a rather loose autumn trench coat, so his hidden weapon pouch, dagger, and throwing knife were all concealed very well inside the coat.
Gao Jianfei thought to himself that after learning the One-Finger Divine Skill in a few days, he could put these weapons into the ghost den and wouldn't need to carry them around anymore.
After leaving the room, he gave Li Yun and Zheng Cuiyun a few words of advice, telling them not to wander off, before leaving the hotel.
I hailed a taxi and headed straight for the Sakura Group, a hillside villa complex located in Setagaya Ward.
The car didn't drive long before we arrived at our destination.
After Gao Jianfei got out of the car, he looked up at the foot of the mountain and saw a lush little hill with some bright streetlights on it. A delicate villa complex was nestled halfway up the hill, exuding elegance.
At the foot of the mountain, a large number of luxury cars were parked. Among them were the Toyota cars driven by Song Ying and the assistant referees.
Gao Jianfei took a deep breath, subconsciously patted the throwing knife hidden at his waist, and then started walking up the mountain.
Chapter 318 Very Awesome
Chapter 318 Very Awesome
"This is the stronghold of the Sakura Group, a powerful underground force in Tokyo!"
Gao Jianfei took a deep breath and then walked up the mountain.
This small hill was clearly the private property of the Sakura Group. There was a parking lot at the foot of the hill, and the road leading up the hill was exceptionally smooth. Japanese-style streetlights were scattered along both sides of the road. Numerous green trees were planted on the hill. These trees were quite old; some required several adults to encircle them. Neon lights and lanterns hung from the trees. Gao Jianfei walked slowly, carefully observing his surroundings.
Along both sides of the road, there were some burly men in black suits and sunglasses. Their eyes were firm and determined. Some of the strong men had a noticeable bulge at their waist, perhaps because they were carrying firearms.
After walking for a few minutes, Gao Jianfei finally arrived outside a cluster of exquisite villas. A row of bodyguards in black suits stood outside the gate. Upon seeing Gao Jianfei, they began speaking rapidly in Japanese.
"Is this the Chinese guy that Fujita-kun invited?"
"It's that gambling expert!"
While the bodyguards in black were talking, Gao Jianfei clearly understood what they were saying. However, Gao Jianfei simply stood outside the door without showing any emotion and did not go forward.
Suddenly, a short, middle-aged man in a kimono walked out of the villa. He had a slightly sleazy appearance. He pushed aside the bodyguards in black suits and went directly to Gao Jianfei. He bowed and said, "Hi! Mr. Jianfei! Welcome!" in slightly broken Chinese.
"Haha, hello." Gao Jianfei then communicated with him directly in Japanese.
"Huh?" The short, middle-aged Japanese man visibly hesitated, then gave an awkward smile and switched to Japanese, saying, "I didn't expect that Jianfei-kun could speak Japanese. Could it be that you have a special connection with me! Fujita-kun, I've been waiting for you!"
Gao Jianfei followed the middle-aged Japanese man directly into the villa.
