Age of Evolution

After hanging up the phone with Zhao Liang, Lin Zhen’s mood was agitated.

Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall was the martial arts hall where Lin Zhen had stayed in his previous life, and something did happen during this time period.

Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall had recruited several Russian martial artists to join, and among them, three Warrior Level martial artists were particularly formidable, challenging almost all the warrior martial artists in Ice City Base City.

There were already Russians living in the Ice City region, and there were quite a few of them. After the God Transformation Calendar, Russians even occupied an entire street in Ice City.

Russians are naturally tall and strong, and they have always been known as a fighting ethnic group. It can be said that their talent for combat is much higher than that of Hua Xia people.

However, Russians also have a huge flaw — their sensitivity to True Qi is slightly dull, and their chances of becoming War Generals are also a bit lower.

Additionally, since they are not of the same ethnic group, Hua Xia people still have some precautions against Russians. Therefore, over the years, few

Russians in Ice City have joined the Hua Xia martial arts halls, and there aren’t many martial artists above the rank of War General.

But now, Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall has broken this rule by recruiting several talented Russian martial artists, secretly training them for a while, intending to make Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall rise to prominence in Ice City.

Lin Zhen even knew a few of the Russians from his previous life, but back then,

Lin Zhen wasn’t considered important by them.

What truly moved Lin Zhen was that he knew about the rewards issued by various martial arts halls and Base City during the later stages of the fight to save Hua Xia’s face at the expense of the Russians. Any Warrior Level martial artist who could defeat the Russians would receive great rewards! What attracted Lin Zhen the most was the reward offered by Base City.

Meteorite trading permission!

This reward was offered by Base City as a last resort. Hua Xia people have always been particular about saving face, and they can make significant concessions for this reason.

Lin Zhen still remembered that this reward was proposed by a martial artist from Long Wind Martial Arts Academy. That person was called Chen Jingchou, who finally defeated the Russians and obtained the meteorite trading permission.

After Chen Jingchou received the guarantee from Base City, he voluntarily assaulted Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall, not only defeating the Russians on the spot, but also kicking Lin Zhen, who was just standing idly by.

Although Chen Jingchou kicked Lin Zhen to establish his prestige at that time, it seriously damaged Lin Zhen’s Dantian, directly leading to difficulties in his later promotion.

If Ouyang Yu and the others caused Lin Zhen’s first setback in his previous life, Chen Jingchou would be the second person to cause Lin Zhen’s setbacks, and he was completely innocent.

On the contrary, Chen Jingchou later became the number one of the new generation in Ice City. After obtaining meteorite trading permission, his strength progressed by leaps and bounds. He also gained a great harvest in the Ancient God’s Relic later, successfully advancing to War God.

When the time came for the great interstellar migration, Chen Jingchou left Earth, and Lin Zhen didn’t know what happened to him afterward.

In Ice City, there were only a few people who could be considered Lin Zhen’s enemies — Ouyang Yu could barely be counted as one, Zhang Huai was another, and Chen Jingchou was the last.

Lin Zhen’s mouth.

The towering city wall of Ice City appeared ahead, and Lin Zhen drove directly into the city along the highway.

After making a turn, Lin Zhen headed straight to an auction house in the city.

First, he wanted to dispose of the items in his possession and quickly monetize them to prepare for the next step of action.

The auction house had a rustic name – Huan Yu, but it was the largest auction house in Hua Xia and was very famous in all five Base Cities. It was said that the behind-the-scenes boss was unfathomable.

Not only did the auction house often have good items for sale, it also purchased various materials at a slightly higher price than the Base City’s Technology Department and the martial arts halls.

The receptionist was elegantly beautiful and greeted Lin Zhen with a bow. “Sir, hello, welcome to Huan Yu. Are you here to consign or to buy?” “I have some Mutant Beast Crystals and materials that I want to sell to you.”

“Alright, sir, may I ask what is the highest level of your Mutated Beast materials?”

“Most are C-level, with the highest being B-level.”

“Alright, sir, please follow me.”

The receptionist swayed her waist and led Lin Zhen to a counter, which was specifically for purchasing Mutated Beast materials.

Inside the counter, there was a beautiful girl in charge of the purchase. The receptionist left after bringing Lin Zhen here.

“Sir, please show your crystals and materials. I will calculate the prices on the spot for you,” said the girl.

Lin Zhen placed his backpack on the counter, causing it to tremble slightly due to the weight.

The contents inside poured out, and even the purchasing girl—who had seen a lot—couldn’t help but show astonishment on her face.

This young man seemed to be just at the Warrior Level, but the things he took out were too many.

Could it be that he was acting on behalf of a team? It would be difficult for one person to obtain these items in a short amount of time.

After careful counting, the results were out in about twenty minutes.

“There are 300 C-level Mutant Beast Crystals. According to the Base City Technology Department’s purchase price, they are worth around 800,000 to 1.1 million each. Our Huan Yu price is 1 million per crystal, so we can offer you a

total of 300 million.”

Lin Zhen nodded. This price was acceptable.

“As for these 40 B-level Mutant Beast Crystals, their price fluctuates slightly.

Referring to the Technology Department’s price, their total value is about 2.5 to 3 billion. We can offer you a total of 2.8 billion for their purchase.”

“Regarding the Mutant Beast materials, their degree of intactness is quite rare. I have estimated their total value to be around 220 million. If you agree to sell all of the materials to us, we can offer you a total of 8 billion for all items combined.”

Lin Zhen naturally understood the value of his items. This bag could be sold for an additional 1 billion if he wasn’t in a hurry and sold them individually, making the value around 9 billion.

However, he didn’t want to sell them in small quantities, and there were benefits to selling them to Huan Yu in one go, even at a slightly lower price.

“According to my understanding, if a transaction’s value exceeds 5 billion, I can qualify for a VIP account with Huan Yu, right? I can participate in Huan Yu’s auctions both in reality and online.”

“Yes, that’s the rule. As a Huan Yu VIP, you will receive emails from us for important auctions, and you can attend in person or participate online.

“Then let’s sell according to the price you mentioned. Please process a VIP card for me.”

Lin Zhen handed over his ID card. The auction house’s reputation was still credible.

The salesgirl was quick. As one of Hua Xia’s largest auction houses, they served plenty of big customers, and the staff were quite professional and reliable.

However, during the process, she couldn’t help but cast flirtatious glances at Lin Zhen, blushing and trying to seduce him.

Young, handsome, and wealthy martial artists like Lin Zhen were the first criterion for many girls when choosing a mate, so this wasn’t surprising.

However, Lin Zhen remained smiling throughout the process, without engaging in any conversation with the girl, rendering her seductive looks fruitless.

With the VIP card in hand, Lin Zhen’s account received the 8 billion in cash.

Adding the money he already had in the card, Lin Zhen now had a wealth of nearly 9 billion.

At that moment, a message notified that Shi Lei had transferred 150 million to Lin Zhen!

Eleven billion! Lin Zhen had 11 billion!

What could be done with 11 billion?

The villa where Lin Zhen currently lived was worth about 1 billion.

His Raptor off-road vehicle was worth just over 5 million.

A bottle of Genetic Potion that could change a person’s fate was worth over 10 million; although its value had now increased, it was still only about 20 million.

Shi Lei, Gao Yan, and the others had struggled for so long in the Wilderness Area, but none of them had savings worth 11 billion.

This was the power of a Spiritual Mind Master, especially at the Golden Stage. The ability to fly allowed Lin Zhen to calmly find valuable kills amongst the mutated beasts, greatly increasing efficiency. Ordinary warriors, on the other hand, had to move forward slowly on the ground, facing not only a slow pace but also the danger of being retaliated against by the mutated beasts.

However, 9 billion was not enough in Lin Zhen’s opinion. A small space ring cost several billion, and entering the War General Stage would require a large sum as well to buy auxiliary elixirs for cultivation.

Of course, that wasn’t the most important part. Once Lin Zhen obtained the right to trade meteorites, he could trade with the Technology Department; it would be a massive spending spree.

Lin Zhen turned to the salesgirl and asked in the face of her hopeful gaze, “Has the Space Ring been listed on the market? “
