"Minister, do I look like someone who would die needlessly?" Shen Qian asked, raising his head.
Wu Wei was speechless for a moment. It was because Shen Qian had faced countless dangers along the way that Wu Wei was willing to bring him here. He knew that Shen Qian actually possessed extraordinary rationality and composure.
He's now boasting that he'll find a top-tier noble to collect interest from—but in reality, it's a life-or-death battle...
Did he go mad before he sank?
But when Wu Wei looked over, he found that Shen Qian's eyes held only a deep, starry calm.
“The city at the center of the earth, Wanghou Road, number thirty-nine... Marquis Zhaoyuan often resides there.”
Wu Wei opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually said the residence of a king or nobleman.
"Minister, thank you."
Shen Qian turned to leave, but paused again the moment he opened the door, and whispered, "You will understand that I alone am worth a hundred Zhaoyuan Marquises!"
"Maybe I'm going crazy..."
Watching Shen Qian leave, Wu Wei gave a self-deprecating smile, then shook his head and muttered to himself, "Fine, let him vent his anger. It'll also serve as a warning to the Divine Emperor Palace.

Although Wu Wei met Shen Qian's requirements, deep down he still didn't believe Shen Qian was qualified to challenge Zhao Yuanhou.

...
After leaving the martial arts club, Shen Qian stood on the streets of Beidu, watching the people come and go.
Although war has broken out, this place, as the capital of China, remains as peaceful as ever. People chat and laugh about their weekend getaways, seemingly oblivious to everything else.
Shen Qian took out his bracelet, turned it on, and made a call.
"Oh, you're back from 'the sea of learning'?" Yuan You's surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.
"How much money do I have right now?" Shen Qian wasn't in the mood for teasing her and asked directly.
"If you're talking about readily available cash and assets that can be liquidated immediately, there's probably over 40 billion..."
After a moment of surprise, Yuan You immediately gave a number.
"Okay, contact Wan Ning and let her handle some of it. Also, help me acquire all the source stones available on the market... If you don't have enough money, let me know and I'll figure something out."
"Oh, how much do you want?"
Shen Qian glanced at a couple embracing on the side of the street, pursed his lips, and said, "All of them."
