In fact, no money was spent before the sinking.
His last visit to the Martial Arts Department was in accordance with his previous plan: to transcribe the Nine Kings Divine Powers he obtained from the secret realm and give them to the Martial Arts Department in exchange for corresponding contribution points.
After careful analysis, apart from Zhenbei King's "Extreme Fist" and Yanling King's "Words Come True" and the "Eye of Truth" from Jiangling King that could not be replicated, Shen Qian could only actually use the Nine Stars Body Technique left by Lintian King.
Other techniques, whether it be the profound array formation of King Zhouyi, King Taiyi's unique application of "Dao," or King Ganwu's flesh and blood supernatural powers, are all useless to Shen Qian.
Once these supernatural powers are fully digested by Shen Qian, they will automatically lose the medium for inheritance. Therefore, after much thought, Shen Qian decided to replicate the inheritance left by the other five kings to the Martial Arts Department, while he himself cleared the relevant memories after losing the inheritance.
Fortunately, time was reversed once; otherwise, given the Ninth Prince's methods, it would have been impossible for Shen Qian to receive the inheritance a second time.
...Although he didn't understand why the original nine kings were not very willing to leave behind their martial arts legacy.
Whether it's a higher martial arts academy or some of the dojos that the Nine Kings once opened, it's hard to find much of it.
Even though King Qin Guang left behind an entire family, he did not keep the core secrets of his martial arts. This can be seen from the fact that the most powerful member of the Qin Guang family to date is only a marquis or king, which is far less than the height that King Qin Guang once reached.
Shen Qian vaguely guessed that the reason might be related to the fact that the first generation of the Nine Kings had taken the initiative to cut off the path of the Martial King. However, there were too few relevant clues, and he was unable to piece together the whole truth.
The Martial Arts Department also highly valued the supernatural techniques that Shen Qian had contributed. Since Shen Qian didn't have anything urgent to attend to for a short time, they converted them all into a large amount of contribution points and accumulated them in Shen Qian's account.
As for these dozen or so A-grade battle armors, some were gifts given out of friendship and did not consume too many of Shen Qian's contribution points. They were essentially a reward for Shen Qian's selfless contribution. Normally, even if someone obtained the Nine Kings Divine Power, they would not directly contribute it to the Martial Arts Department.
Shen Qian had also thought it over, because he already knew that Lin Sanmo and the others would most likely choose to join his team.
Although Lin Sanmo and the others can be considered unparalleled geniuses with unlimited potential, not to mention that they have each received part of the inheritance of the Nine Kings, coupled with the support of the kings and nobles behind them and their own opportunities, it is only a matter of time before they grow into true powerhouses.
But what they lack most now is time. Shen Qian has enough confidence in himself, but he is also unwilling to let any member of the patrol team die needlessly in this global disaster.
Grade A armor can greatly improve their survivability.
As for Qu Bai and Lin Sanmo, who already possessed armor of the same level, Shen Qian gifted them sniper rifles that were half a level lower than the "Sun Shooting" rifle in their hands. It wasn't that Shen Qian couldn't afford to give them the "Sun Shooting," but rather that he chose the A+ level sniper rifle "Dark Night," which was more widely used among military warriors, considering the difficulty of controlling it.
After introducing Lin Sanmo, Li Muyi, and the others to each other, Chen Qian opened the communication system in the room and activated it with the captain's privileges.
This also means that the entire 037 Old Days Squad is now on duty and ready to receive missions and instructions.
Honestly, I've been using a source-switching app to read and follow my favorite books lately. It offers various source switching options and different reading voices. The .huanyuanapp works on both Android and Apple devices.
"Everyone, go back to your rooms and rest."
Chen Qian took the key to room number 1 from Dao Jiu and nodded slightly.
Zhao Keyi opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but Qu Bai gave him a look, so he didn't say anything in the end.
"Don't hesitate to ask for help if you need it."
Li Muyi walked at the back, and as he passed Shen Qian, he winked at him and whispered, "Don't underestimate the 'Stone King'..."
Shen Qian smiled but didn't reply. He watched as everyone returned to the second floor and entered their respective rooms, and the spacious lounge hall immediately fell silent.
Shen Qian pulled up a chair and sat down in the center of the hall, flipping through the remaining documents in his hand one by one.
The first thing that catches the eye is a middle-aged man with a rugged appearance.
Name: Shi Changhai
Age: 98
Realm: Nine Heavens of Mountains and Seas
Forbidden Areas: Physical Taboos (Suspected)
Combat strength: 190,000
..."
This is the strongest warrior on paper among the old squad before the sinking.
With a combat power approaching 200,000, he is definitely one of the best in the world of mountains and seas, and is not much different from Ji You, the third disciple of Duke Yanshan.
Shen Qian originally planned to wait until they were familiar with each other before letting the other person take over the position of vice-captain of Dao Jiu and become a core figure of the old team.
In situations where the team leader is unable to assume their responsibilities, whether proactively or passively, the other party can take over and complete the routine tasks in the war zone.
Shen Qian hadn't expected that the other party wouldn't give him a chance to win him over.
"Stone King..."
Shen Qian thought of the other party's nickname among some powerful figures in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and couldn't help but chuckle, casually tossing the other party's information on the ground.
How dare they claim to be king of mountains and seas?
He then began to turn the pages faster, and the documents scattered on the ground.
"Xiong Sheng... combat power of 80,000..."
"Liu Liangcheng... combat strength of 95,000..."
"Zhu Wenxian... combat power of 110,000... wait, also a military martial artist... I hadn't noticed before, but it seems she comes from the same family as Zhu Yinhong?"
"..."
In the blink of an eye, he had already reviewed the information on the nine people again.
