Chapter 36: A Great Disturbance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhao Nan’s views of the world, of his life, and of his morals shattered into bits.
“Even if he’s dressed in a high school student’s uniform, he might not necessarily be a high school student. But based on how smooth his hands are, he should not be too old. He is indeed in the same age group as us. In fact, he’s probably younger than us by a few years.”
Yan Feirou spoke with a complicated emotion. “Besides, I feel that his strength isn’t great. His maximum punching strength shouldn’t be more than two hundred and fifty kilograms. He is purely relying on the ingenuity of this Ripple Force to deliver all of his strength continuously and steadily into the piece of pork.”
Zhao Nan was silent.
He believed that he could execute the martial art the teenager used in the video. In fact, he could do it in a shorter amount of time. He could turn a piece of pork into mince meat in ten seconds.
The problem was, he had been learning Ripple Force from Yan Zhennan since he was young, and when he was nineteen, he awakened to supernatural powers. Now, even if he did not use his supernatural abilities, his maximum punching strength was still over five hundred kilograms.
The maximum strength of the teenager in the video was only slightly above that of an average high school student. Even so, he managed to fully draw out and utilize every bit of power from all his muscles and even his cells from the ingenious aspects of Ripple Force.
He used an incredibly terrifying ripple!
“Junior Sister, this is a serious matter. You have to tell Master, hurry.”
Zhao Nan’s expression became stern. He did not want to delay her more, but he could not help but ask, “Where did you get this Ripple Force? What’s the goal of this person telling you about such an amazing Ripple Force? What benefits does he want? If you ask me, no matter what sort of thing he wants, it’s worth it for us to exchange it for his Ripple Force!”
“I don’t know.”
Shock and puzzlement that could not be described with words appeared on Ripple Force Princess’ face. She was stunned for a long time before she mumbled, “He didn’t ask me for any benefits. Instead, he even gave me ten thousand for it. He also told me that he’s not asking for anything. He just wants the Yan family to not keep this a secret. He wants us to promote this new version of Ripple Force so that he can contribute to Dragon City’s raise to power.”
While Ripple Force Princess was being deeply shocked and could not compose herself, Meng Chao was talking to his father on the balcony of the public renting house.
Meng Yishan had finished settling things with Prosperous. As a show of respect to White-haired Ghostly Hands Ning Shewo and Thunderbolt, Qin Hu did not dare to attack him for the time being. More than ten harvesters left the company while accompanied by a retinue. They looked like an army who had returned victorious.
As for Shen Rongfa, rumors said that he was currently staying in a plastic surgery hospital, but no one knew what sort of illness he had. 1
Meng Yishan was in a good mood. As he watched his son become more mature every day, he felt relieved.
But just now, his wife told him some things, and he felt that it was rather awkward for him to breach this topic. He also found it really embarrassing to put his thoughts to words.
“A’chao, you’ve really grown up. You can become the pillar of our family now.”
After mulling over his words for half a day, the middle-aged man shut the door separating the balcony to the bedroom and brought out a wrinkled pack of cigarettes. “Would you want one?”
This was him recognizing that his son had become an adult, and he could give up his spot as the head of the family to him now.
“Dad, I don’t smoke. You can just get straight to whatever you want to say.” 2
Meng Chao felt that his father was a little strange today. What was with his gaze?
“It’s nothing. I just want us to be able to talk like good friends,” Meng Yishan said falteringly. “You sister told your mom… some things just now. And your mom told them to me. Um…
“I’m just going to say a few words, alright? Even if you don’t like listening to it, don’t get upset. I’m saying that, you know, we earned a lot of money yesterday, and we never earned so much money in our family before. It’s… a pretty happy thing, huh?”
“That’s right. It’s a pretty amazing thing,” Meng Chao said. “Dad, aren’t you happy?”
“Of course I’m happy! It’s just that, we’ve just started building our company, and those good days are still far ahead of us in the future. We still need to be very careful with our spending. We can’t forget ourselves after we become rich overnight, yes?” Meng Yishan shifted the topic of the conversation. “I saw that you’ve been going to online classes often. It’s that… what’s her name? That Ripple…”
“Ripple Force Princess Yan Feirou. I learned Ripple Force from her to recuperate. Is there something wrong with it?” Meng Chao frowned.
“No, no, no, of course not. You need to repay kindness when it is shown to you. Her online classes helped you recover, so it’s only normal that you want to express gratitude to her. I fully support that. But, you know, you need to understand your limits when doing everything.
“She comes from a well-known family, and she’s a blessed child in Dragon City University. She’s also an online celebrity that the broadcasting platform is supporting fully. She’s not in the same world as us. That money you have might be a lot in our eyes, but it’s nothing to her,” Meng Yishan said earnestly.
The more Meng Chao listened to his father, the more puzzled he became. “Dad, I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Youth is filled with ignorance. No one has ever understood it,” Meng Yishan said with a sigh. “I was young once, and I was hot-blooded as well. No matter what I did, I was always impatient. Sometimes, when I was overcome by impulse, I couldn’t control myself.”
“Hang on a second.” Meng Chao felt that there must be a misunderstanding somewhere. “Dad, I wasn’t impulsive, and I’m not impatient either.”
“If you put it that way, then you’re not treating me like your friend. I’m a man too, and I was young once. I know exactly what you young’uns are thinking about. You’re hot-blood youths at seventeen and eighteen years old. As long as you don’t have physiological diseases, how could you not be impatient and impulsive?” Meng Yishan cast him a sidelong glance.
“I… Ah, fine. I was impatient and impulsive.” Meng Chao submitted to his father. 4
“That’s the spirit. We’re both men. We can understand each other in everything. But still, no matter how impatient we are, we have to pay attention to the time, our target, and the method we use,” Meng Yishan said.
“You’re about to take your national college examination. It’s better if you put all of your attention on your cultivation. Wait until your national college examination ends. Then, you can forget about whether you’ve done well or not. If you have a girl in class that you’re rather close to, you can invite her out to sing, watch movies, or stroll about Monster Park. If she doesn’t mind how old and dilapidated our house is, you can even bring her over to rest. 5
“Then, forget about spending ten thousand. Even if you spend twenty thousand or thirty thousand, I’ll have nothing to say about it. If you don’t have enough money, I will support you. Of course, you’ll have to be sincere. You can’t bully the girl, but I trust that you won’t do it. The men in the Meng family are all sincere when it comes to our relationships, right?”
“What… Dad, let’s stop for a moment and get ourselves on the same channel, yeah? ‘Cause I feel like we’re on completely different worlds here!” 2
“You know what I’m saying.”
“No, I don’t!” 2
“Ahem. Anyhow, just… pay attention to what you’re doing. Also, one last thing. The environment in Dragon City is pretty bad. There are monsters running amok outside, and we occasionally have zombies and plagues going around in the city, so you should…”
He finished smoking his cigarette and flicked away the cigarette butt. Then, as if he had come to a huge decision, he quickly said, “You should pay attention to your personal hygiene and safety precautions. Alright, that’s the end of the father-son talk. I’m going to wash the dishes now!”
Before Meng Chao could register what happened, his father had already opened the door and fled. “Darling, I’ve successfully completed my mission! Our son understands it now!”
“I have NO IDEA what you were saying!” 3
Meng Chao felt so frustrated that he was about to die.
As he thought about it carefully, he felt that this definitely had something to do with Bai Jiacao, and he became so angry that he gnashed his teeth. “Damn you, Dark Witch. You’re seriously the bane of my life… What on Earth did you tell mom?”
Just when he began polishing his knives and wanted to get back at his little sister, a notification suddenly popped up before his eyes.
[After you provided guidance, elite citizen Yan Feirou obtained an epiphany in terms of Ripple Force. Increased contribution points by 99.]
This was his second “elite monster”!
‘As expected of the future Ripple Force Queen, the woman who left her name in the history books of Dragon City’s martial arts history. She’s still in university, but she’s already a legendary elite citizen!’
Meng Chao was so happy that he was almost floating.
He knew it, it was much better to farm “elite monsters”. When Yan Feirou appraised and admired the Ripple Force, her passion for learning and her subjective activity was so great that he did not even need to spend any effort to be able to get a huge amount of contribution points.
And this was just the beginning.
Very soon, like the floodgates of a dam were opened, a large number of notifications came charging at Meng Chao.
[Elite citizen Yan Feirou was shocked by your Ripple Force, and she is currently spreading out the new Ripple Force. More normal citizens are learning the new Ripple Force, and they gained varying degrees of understanding from it. Dragon City’s overall fighting strength has increased. Increased contribution points by 12. Increased contribution points by 9. Increased contribution points by 22. Increased contribution points by 17…] 2
‘I finally found the right way to use Kindling!’ Meng Chao felt tears pool in his eyes.
When he used Chu Feixiong to indirectly teach his high school classmates, everyone just gave him one contribution point on average.
But when he used Yan Feirou to indirectly teach others, they were probably her university coursemates or professional users of the Yan Family Ripple Force. When they became stronger, it naturally was going to be better for the future development of Dragon City.
Meng Chao’s guess was correct.
Once he sent the formulae, instructions, and video to Yan Feirou through the private message, they started spreading nonstop in the private chat group of the Yan Family Ripple Force. Many of the third generation disciples of the Yan Family Ripple Force and even the pillars of the second generation were shocked.
Laymen could understand something at a surface level, but professionals could see the profound skill in whatever they specialized. When Meng Chao taught Chu Feixiong Reckless Bull Force, regardless of his classmates or his homeroom teacher, all they could tell was this: Oh, this is a very powerful Super Reckless Bull Force.
As for how powerful it was or where its limits were, the laymen and even Meng Chao himself had no clue.
But when the future Ripple Force was placed before current Ripple Force experts, the shock dealt to them was definitely that of a magnitude level twelve tidal wave.
“How could this be? This Ripple Force has increased the efficiency of our force execution by more than ten percent, and it’s even better than the newest version of our Yan Family Ripple Force. When we attack, it’s even smoother. It’s practically perfect! There are practically no weaknesses in it!”
“That’s not right. This is the Yan Family Ripple Force, but it’s a super improved version of the Yan Family Ripple Force. It’s only after I saw it that I understood that the real Yan Family Ripple Force is actually supposed to be like this. I-I’ve been walking down the wrong path these the past five years…”
“Instead of saying that it’s the Yan Family Ripple Force, it’s better to say that this Ripple Force is the agglomeration of all the popular Ripple Forces in the market right now. It achieved mastery through a comprehensive study of all other Ripple Forces and by blending all of them together. I wonder just which monstrous and peerless elite made this Ripple Force! I’m impressed!”
All the practitioners of Ripple Force in Dragon City were bound to have a sleepless night.
This great disturbance was passed from Meng Chao’s hands to Yan Feirou. Later on, she sent it to her family’s private chat group. Then, it went from the Yan Family Ripple Force to more than ten different schools.
In the end, waves of comments also appeared on normal martial art forums.
The normal citizens did not know the source of the future Ripple Force. They thought that the Yan family had created a new version of the Yan Family Ripple Force again, and they gasped in amazement. As expected of the Yan family. They were indeed the best in Dragon City when it came to Ripple Force, and they were worthy of the title of the creators of Ripple Force.
Yan Feirou knew what was going on, so it was only par for the course that she started spamming Old Fire Relayer’s chatbox. She wanted this expert to show his real face so that she could worship him. 6
