As Ma Ran's Inner Qi cultivation grows, the energy limit within his body increases, allowing him to use the prophecy more frequently each day.

Although in most cases, the information gained is trivial, like lottery numbers, fluctuations in cryptocurrency values, financial market storms, or shadows in the ocean depths, yet...

Ma Ran occasionally manages to glean important information from seemingly useless future insights.

...

Three days later.

Ten kilometers outside Grass Hut Academy.

"Oh hell! Finally getting close! Can't believe we couldn't fly and had to come by ship!"

Sitting in the car, Li Xuanxun cursed incessantly, with the dark green phosphorus fire in his hand constantly leaping, causing the nearby passengers to instinctively distance themselves from him.

"Damn it! This whole journey has been so shaky, I nearly threw up!"

Li Xuanxun has been exhibiting a manic demeanor recently, with a face full of hostility, annoyed by everyone, ready to let anyone arguing with him experience the power of [Bone Melting Phosphorus Fire].

"Brother Hyun-seok! Don't be angry, we're almost there!"

A young woman around the same age as Li Xuanxun said softly, "Being assigned to China for exchange this time is indeed a crisis, but as long as we handle the public relations well, we can turn crisis into opportunity and even rise from it!"

"Conflict and contradiction are the best catalysts for human progress!"

The gentle words of the opposite sex made Li Xuanxun feel a bit relieved.

He grasped his palm suddenly, dispersed the dark green phosphorus fire, and stretched his hand to embrace the young woman beside him: "Yina, you are my brain; as long as I have you, I will never deviate from the correct course."

"I will seize this opportunity, become a stronger person!"

"When we return, I will prove my worth, making those who abandoned me regret."

Despite the affectionate gesture, Li Xuanxun did nothing beyond holding Jin Yina.

Held in his embrace, Jin Yina covered her mouth and laughed lightly, showing a hint of charm: "Brother Hyun-seok, during that last global Extraordinary Ones online conference, it wasn't your fault, you should blame me."

"I oversimplified things."

"I didn't expect someone to be so unruly, so impulsive, flipping the table and disrupting my setup."

"Otherwise, Brother Hyun-seok, you could have seized that opportunity and become South Korea's sole shining new star!"

"If Brother Hyun-seok needs to blame someone, blame Yina!"

"Yina's calculation wasn't deep enough, her knowledge was too shallow, and her understanding of Extraordinary Ones' abilities was insufficient."

"Don't blame those adults, they haven't truly abandoned you! Show enough value when we return and reconnect with them!"

"China… no, as we say in South Korea—more friends, more paths. We can't forsake utilizing their power because of those adults' short-sightedness!"

Hearing Jin Yina's words, Li Xuanxun hurriedly hugged her, solemnly reassuring: "How could I blame you? It's all my fault!"

"I was unprepared, thus caught off guard."

"I vow, I'll be vigilant and ensure it never happens again!"

Previously, during the first global Extraordinary Ones online meeting, that public slap humiliated him greatly, with minimal physical harm.

Li Xuanxun was disgraced publicly, his reputation shattered, already declared out by the Korean top brass.

After that, only two remained in contention for Korea's strongest Extraordinary One position.

This time, Li Xuanxun received a task, supposedly coming to China for exchange learning, yet is merely a disguised exile.

As for Jin Yina...

This B-level Superpower User who awakened [Charm], although nearly zero combat power, is highly intelligent, gaining immense popularity and a promising future.

In Korea, regardless of where she goes, countless males flock like sharks smelling blood, clamoring for attention, even the remaining two Korean rising stars covet her.

No one knows why Jin Yina specifically came to China with Li Xuanxun, a failed individual.

As they whispered sweet nothings, soon the vehicle arrived at the entrance of Grass Hut Academy.

Vehicles adorned with various national flags had already arrived beforehand.

Li Xuanxun hurriedly released his hold on Jin Yina, jumped out of the car, took deep breaths of fresh air, and let out a wolf-like howl, attracting much attention.

"Representatives of the Korean and Japanese sides, hello."

Responsible for greeting Li Xuanxun was a young man carrying the Eight-sided Han Sword, whose eyes were spirited and demeanor calm, offering a reliable impression.

This guy...

Is the legendary Sword Master's Direct Lineage, Wan Haihao!

Or is it Sword Master's Direct Disciple?

Li Xuanxun couldn't distinguish between direct lineage and direct disciple, thinking there's no difference, merely some unnecessary redundant words created by idle Chinese individuals.

"Hypocritical country's contemptible person..."

Li Xuanxun's gaze fell on the Japanese representative, sneeringly speaking with a peculiar Seoul accent: "That [Yin Yang Master] didn't come this time, cowardly, truly disappointing!"

These words were initially aimed at Jin Yina.

Yet the Japanese representative, upon hearing, immediately turned around, enigmatically responding in halting Korean: "Oh, isn't this the 'Mr. Slap' of the Great Cosmic Empire?"

"Your name is well-known back in my country!"

"As for that, indeed, it's a pity, Lord Ogata has important duties, unable to attend this exchange conference."

"Otherwise, 'Mr. Slap' might have the chance to recreate his past 'famous scene'?"

"You are indeed powerful!"

"Being slapped to rotate 360 degrees mid-air, haha... truly remarkable!"

Li Xuanxun's eyes narrowed, his palm instantly exploding with dark green phosphorus fire, facing his taunting opponent, who seemingly prepared beforehand, immediately pulling out a traditional temple wooden fish.

Shwoosh!

Two sword lights flashed by, separating the dueling parties.

"Damn!"

"Si Guoyi!"

Both retreated several steps, focusing their attention on Wan Haihao.

The unnamed light blue long sword, shimmering cold radiance, hovered at Wan Haihao's side, restless, seemingly ready to fly out and cut.

Like doing nothing, Wan Haihao smiled, said: "This global Extraordinary exchange symposium includes a sparring session."

"Prior to that, I ask everyone to exercise patience, don't cause trouble for other guests."

Li Xuanxun's eyes flickered, ultimately suppressing his impulse.

This guy...

Is strong!

No certainty of defeating him!

"It's a hassle to have the host intervene to stop the fight, truly sorry."

Previously cynical, the Japanese representative suddenly changed expression, earnestly looked at Wan Haihao, sincerely said: "Please trust my sincerity."

If it were Su Qiangwei, she would likely retort immediately with "Why don't you open your bowels."

Wan Haihao, much more stable and experienced, maintained his smiling demeanor post-testing, seemingly unchanged emotionally.

The so-called "Korean-Japanese friendship relying on China, Sino-Korean friendship relying on Japan..."

Is just a joke, a meme, only for laughs.

Every entity participating in the Extraordinary exchange symposium carries their purposes and demands, seeking benefits.

Intelligence, outer star resources, Extraordinary materials...

Each side's desired benefits differ merely in form.

Entities purely here to boost presence...

Exist, but not many.
