Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

Jiangnan City.

The 36th floor of the technology building purchased by Minglun Martial Arts in the business district.

This floor had been transformed into a huge venue, with a massive stage near the wall, surrounded by rows and rows of seats.

For this press conference, Minglun Martial Arts had invited famous media from all over the world and various business magnates.

And if others wanted to attend, they had to pay an entrance fee of ten thousand RMB.

Otherwise, they could only watch the live broadcast by major media outlets.

But nobody wanted to watch the broadcast, everyone wanted to be there in person.

Because, there were rumors that at this press conference, the head of Minglun Martial Arts, the legendary prodigy who supposedly cultivated his life force beyond three digits and whose mind was like a god or Buddha, would be in attendance.

The concept of life force had already been widely disseminated.

Triple digits!

It was simply miraculous!

Everyone believed that was a god!

After all, how could a human punch scatter the clouds in the sky?

That was too exaggerated.

Rumors had it that just by laying eyes on such an individual, one could benefit; one's own life force would spontaneously gravitate towards them, embarking on the path of cultivation.

Therefore, everyone wanted to spend those ten thousand yuan!

Unfortunately, there were only thirty thousand seats inside the venue.

Discounting those global media who would certainly attend, there were only twenty-one thousand three hundred and seventy-two tickets for sale.

Too many monks and not enough porridge!

Everyone was fighting tooth and nail for a ticket.

Especially those media outlets not invited paid over ten times, even a hundred times the price of a ticket.

Of course, foreign media suffered the most; besides coming here, they also had to apply for visas, wasting even more time.

As time passed, it was the end of October.

At this moment, the number of tourists in Jiangnan City had for the first time surpassed two hundred thousand.

The massive influx of people brought explosive economic benefits to the city, not only were all the major hotels occupied, but even the smaller hotels were packed to the brim.

So much so, that most had to seek accommodation with local residents, spending upwards of ten or twenty thousand.

The reason for everyone's frenzy was not so much the product to be released at the press conference, but to catch a glimpse of Sun Shisheng.

After all, he had been almost invisible since his graduation.

For ordinary people to meet him, unless they had connections, they would just hit a dead end.

One could say that Minglun's tremendous influence was solely due to the impact of individuals like Sun Shisheng; every move they made drew the world's attention and demanded utmost importance...

...

November 1st.

On this day.

In front of Minglun Technology Co., Ltd., the crowd was bustling, with a constant stream of vehicles.

By eight o'clock in the morning, thousands of news vans and media from all over the world had arrived early, gathering outside the gate, awaiting the opening of the press conference, and many had started reporting already.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jiangnan Consulting, I'm your friend, Zhu Jia, and we are standing in front of Minglun Technology Company's gates," she reported with a smile.

"As you can see, there's a mountain of people gathered at the entrance!"

"It can be said that everyone has gone crazy for a chance to see that being!"

"However, what I'm looking forward to more is what kind of product Minglun Martial Arts will release? That's the most anticipated part!"

"Stay tuned!"

Zhu Jia reported to the audience with a smile on her face.

She was a well-known reporter in the city, who once accompanied the police to capture terrorists in person. During that time, a bullet pierced her chest and left her lying in a pool of blood.

Fortunately, she did not die from the incident but survived.

Having been through a near-death experience, Zhu Jia underwent a transformation in her heart and gained a deeper understanding of her profession. Therefore, she gave up the chance to develop her career in the capital and stayed in Jiangnan.

It was rumored that Zhu Jia was the daughter of some big shot...

Of course, Zhu Jia stayed here also because of the legendary figure of Jiangnan City.

If one could interview Sun Shisheng, it would be a major news story.

In theory, the media would cover a personage like Sun Shisheng.

But the reality was—

Unless Sun Shisheng allowed it, no one could see him, not even report on him.

Once, a media outlet casually fabricated a story about Sun Shisheng and published it, only to see the company fold and the people involved suffer misfortunes for half a month.

This story became more mysterious as it spread, but was eventually stifled by higher-ups.

Zhu Jia knew some inside information due to her unique identity – that once one reached a stable state in the Mental Realm, they could sense information from the outside world.

As for a powerhouse with a life force over three digits like Sun Shisheng, it was likely he would sense any mention of him, even from thousands of miles away, and could possibly punish from afar.

Thus, most media wanted to report but were also afraid.

Without securing Sun Shisheng's consent, they dared not even directly mention his name, only referring to him as "that being" or "that great individual."

This almost became an inside joke.

"Next, let me talk about the exploits of that being."

"He is truly a prodigy, not like those recent top scorers in college entrance exams who then disappear without a trace... In his college days, he displayed real talent, creating!"

"Medicines for treating cancer, for curing AIDS... all sorts of diseases that humanity could not eradicate seemed to have numerous solutions in his brain."

"More importantly, his medicines are affordable, no matter what the drug, they all were priced at one hundred thousand."

"A hundred thousand per dose, and the illness will be cured upon its arrival!"

"One could say that Minglun is, indeed, the future of the world!"

"Perhaps I'm a bit overexcited, but the moment he presented vitality and mental cultivation, he already changed our society, that was a miracle!"

"Humans can possess the power to soar through the skies and burrow into the earth, the strength to turn rivers and overturn seas, the ability to move mountains and shrink lands!"

"Although he has not demonstrated this to us, we all clearly understand that it is genuine, not false!"

"As long as he wishes, he can achieve it!"

The more Zhu Jia reported, the more excited and thrilled she became.

Minglun, the future of humanity!

These words are by no means an exaggeration!

Besides Zhu Jia, other media outlets were also widely reporting, causing even more people to flock to the event.

By the time it reached nine o'clock, and the press conference was about to begin, over a hundred thousand people had gathered outside Minglun Technology Co., Ltd., but only thirty thousand could actually enter and attend the event.

Those in suits and leather shoes, with faces full of confidence, and holding tickets, entered the venue in an orderly manner.

For the others, Minglun Technology Company also prepared chairs and set up a large outdoor screen on the open grounds outside, so their trip would not be in vain.

Of course, many more could only watch through the live broadcast.

With so many people present, naturally, security measures had to be in place.

Aside from the local guards from Jiangnan City, there were also students from the Minglun Martial Arts School.

Most of them had attained a vitality level of 0.7, making it easy for them to fight off ten attackers each, which naturally ensured the orderly protection of everyone's safety.

Moreover, some students who were close to vitality levels of 0.9 or 1 were placed amongst the spectators.

In addition to that, the artificial intelligence system AI, created by Sun Shisheng, was also secretly monitoring everything, performing real-time checks, and if any danger was detected, it could pass the information to the security personnel for investigation.

"This big data surveillance is really convenient."

"If the precinct had this thing, our future casework wouldn't need to be so troublesome. Just by checking identities, we could trace the criminals," a security guard exclaimed.

"Perhaps we could collaborate with Minglun Technology Co., Ltd.," another resolute-faced officer concurred. If one were to look closely, they would see that this person was none other than Cao Yi.

He held a high position, but at this moment, he had gone so far as to don the attire of a junior officer and come here. Chapter provided via M|V|L@EMPYR.

After all, it was Minglun.

He was determined to come and observe for himself, and since his own daughter had become a disciple of Chan Yinsha, both emotionally and logically, he felt compelled to come and see for himself.

He was naturally pleased that his daughter was able to learn true skills.

Only, he didn't know whether his daughter could withstand the training.

Nine-thirty arrived.

At the venue of the press conference, the moment everyone was seated, the lights suddenly went out, plunging everyone into darkness, with only various dim light sources offering some comfort.

Everyone knew.

The press conference!

It had begun!

In the center of the venue, on the edge of the stage, bright lights shone, but only for an instant before they dimmed again.

The only light still on was shining down from the dome of the venue.

There, not a single person stood.

But everyone held their breath.

Thud!

A sound of footsteps arose, distant as if at the edge of the world, yet seemingly close at hand, as if echoing in everyone's hearts.

Thud, thud!

On the edge of the searchlights, everyone could see a young man slowly approaching.

Everyone recognized him!

That was Sun Shisheng, the one from the rumors!

Behind him, there were two other figures, one a young man with long eyebrows, and the other, a youthful and cute flat-chested girl.

Accompanied by the melodious sound of the piano, the three of them stepped onto the stage.

Afterward, the lights on the stage slowly brightened, and several drones responsible for filming descended from various angles, presenting the scene from multiple perspectives to the external audience.

The three stood there on the stage as if they were dominating the atmosphere, causing the tens of thousands of spectators not to dare make any noise.

Even so, the audience felt an unparalleled calmness and serenity in their hearts at that moment.

No sorrow, no joy!

No desires, no demands!

Great joy!

Great freedom!

Not only the audience on-site, but even those around the world watching through screens felt an inner peace.

Some religious followers even worshipped Sun Shisheng and the others as deities, incarnations of the gods they worshipped on earth.

However, some recognized the long-eyebrowed young man and were deeply shocked.

"GOD!"

"Why is he there!"

"Has he joined the Minglun Martial Arts School!?"

Though Sun Shisheng had introduced vitality and mental cultivation, not everyone had seen it with their own eyes, and thus, skepticism remained.

That's right...

But this group knew the power of GOD.

If GOD had joined Minglun, did it mean that Sun Shisheng was genuinely as formidable as the rumors suggested?
