The day after ng Wei’s phone call, he received a call from Gu Dadong, telling him, "Go to Shancheng City tomorrow morning. Feng wants to et you and discuss sothing, but he can only spare the ti of one breakfast, so try to get there as early as possible."
ng Wei understood and, fearing he might miss Gu Feng’s breakfast ti the next day, he teleported to Shanzhong City the night before and then stayed at a friend’s house in Shencheng City.
The next day while Gu Feng was still not awake, he was already waiting in the pavilion downstairs of Building No. 1 in Shencheng Bay.
In fact, Gu Feng was not sleeping because during the night, he used his Divine Sense to fly within the Solar System and create simple Teleportation Arrays for those planets.
Since he could cover the entire Solar System with his Divine Sense from Earth, he only needed to use Divine Sense to shuttle and do what he intended within the Solar System.
Co daybreak, his physical body would jump out of the Solar System to create Teleportation Arrays in the more distant regions of the Milky Way.
Timing it right, Gu Feng switched back to his own Divine Sense.
In the house, Lin Yue had already gotten up for work and had even specially prepared a full table of breakfast for him.
Knowing that Gu Feng was having ng Wei over for breakfast today, Lin Yue made a bit more than usual.
Gu Feng called ng Wei and found out that the guy was already waiting downstairs.
Once the call connected, he hurriedly scampered up.
ng Wei knew the Young Master’s personality well; he wouldn’t summon him without serious cause. For trivial matters, a phone call would suffice, so ng Wei knew the Young Master must have sothing particular in mind, but he also knew it was not to be rushed, so he first joined Gu Feng for breakfast.
Partway through, Gu Feng asked, "What plans do the Sect Leaders have for the future of military martial arts?"
ng Wei reported truthfully, "Besides retaining the essential high-end military weapons departnt, they might only keep a quarter of the current size!"
Gu Feng nodded.
The scale might seem to retain a quarter, but as countries globally no longer focus on or fund the developnt of conventional weaponry, it ant, in the future, ng Wei’s departnt would definitely be demoted to a provincial unit.
Unless there were surprises, ng Wei might be the last Hall Master level departnt head.
Although everyone in the system would be arranged to work in other departnts with surety and not at a lower level, it ant that they would not be the decision-makers in those departnts.
This overall ant a weakening for the entire military martial group.
This was an inevitable challenge that ca with the tis.
But Gu Feng felt that the pace he had set was too rapid, leading to these people not having a transitional period. Considering they had called him Young Master for so many years since childhood, Gu Feng felt he still should take care of these people and do sothing for them.
So, he asked, "Have you compiled statistics on the global number of people practicing martial arts?"
ng Wei hesitated for a mont, "I’m not sure about globally, but dostically, there are at least over fifty million people registered."
Cultivation, first and foremost, begins with Martial Artists.
After all, this affects social order, and the governnt requires anyone practicing martial arts and possessing combat capabilities to be officially registered.
Seeing that he couldn’t provide specific global data, Gu Feng’s thoughts stirred, and his Divine Sense directly covered any corner of the globe.
Then he continued, "The global number of qualified Martial Artists is around 300 million, and this is just the first few months of promoting the cultivation civilization; it will show explosive growth in the future!"
ng Wei wasn’t sure what the Young Master was implying by bringing this up.
"Young Master, are you concerned about this for so particular reason?" he asked.
Gu Feng continued to inquire, "How do these Martial Artists on the streets train and compete now? Are there specialized venues?"
"This has always been an issue," ng Wei frowned, "It’s manageable for those with lower combat power, but those with higher power have a hard ti controlling their strength during training and competition. There have consistently been cases where Martial Artists mistakenly harm others and damage public property in civil disputes."
"Especially those who drink and challenge each other to fights, that’s even more dangerous," ng Wei lanted. "And these are just Martial Artists; I can’t even imagine how to keep those who reach Qi Refinent and above from acting recklessly in the future."
"Combat allows Cultivators to comprehend a certain essence, an integral part of cultivation. Thus, as they grow stronger, they increasingly need to face their own limits through combat and identify shortcomings through actual combat," Gu Feng explained. "Therefore, in the future, for resources, you can’t avoid friction and plundering among the powerful."
"Unable to accept defeat in combat, the margin for error is narrow. Once you lose, it could an vanishing from the path of life and death; thus, it seems imperative to establish a virtual combat environnt."
Gu Feng stated frankly.
ng Wei was taken aback, "A virtual combat environnt? Is that feasible? It sounds like a technological endeavor. Can we achieve that with our current capabilities?"
"The end of science is theology!" Gu Feng chuckled lightly, "So many deserted planets out in outer space can serve as battlefields, and different planets have different combat environnts with space density and gravitational forces hundreds or thousands of tis those of Earth; you can choose any environnt to simulate a battle with your opponent."
Having said this, Gu Feng already had a clear project direction in mind.
He looked at ng Wei and said, "That’s settled then; I’ll help you create a virtual battlefield, providing an environnt for competition from Martial Artists to Cultivators. I can send anyone in a data-driven manner, and even if they die in the virtual battlefield, they’ll be sent back to reality."
ng Wei was thrilled, "Young Master, that’s possible, definitely feasible, very promising!"
At that ti, this battlefield will provide a combat simulation environnt to global Martial Artists and Cultivators, allowing them to accumulate practical experience before they leave newbie village or even routinely.
Since Earth’s society prevents you from engaging in combat that harms others, you can only enter a simulated world to fully release and test your martial capabilities."
With every stage of improvent, you’ll inevitably want to see how much you’ve advanced.
Then you’ll have to pay to enter the simulated battlefield!
Gu Feng asked him, "So, will your departnt take on this project?"
"Yes!" ng Wei was overjoyed. "We’re willing, thank you, Young Master, thank you so much!"
Gu Feng nodded, "Then get ready to prepare a business plan."
"Alright!" ng Wei was full of energy. "I’ll go and hold a eting right away, and I’ll co up with a global proposal right away."
Saying this, he stood up to pay his respects to Gu Feng, and casually grabbed a stead bun, stuffing it in his mouth as he left.
Watching him chew on the bun vigorously, Gu Feng noted how his deanor resembled soone ready to tout their superiority among the other departnts back at the academy.
