The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 163: Majority Shareholder.

Haru sat still for a few minutes silently to give himself time to recover. That was an insane amount of money. Why exactly was he willing to pay that much for something as simple as fighting in a tournament? There had to be some other reason. But Haru waited for Han to put his phone back down on the table before asking him.

"Why are you willing to pay so much? Is there something else to the tournament that I should know about before I accept to go there?" Haru asked with suspicion.

'First, he gave me a good portion of shares for this place and then he decided to pay me three million dollars just to compete in a tournament Is this guy okay?' Haru thought as best as he could about it but he couldn't come to a conclusion as to why he was doing all this. 

"Well To be totally honest. I won't be in this world for long. I already feel my Qi turning into true Qi. And I am feeling a constant pull toward the sky become stronger and stronger with every day that passes." Han said with a look of concern on his face. 

'That's what Li Jun explained to me when he first taught me how to cultivate. You can only cultivate to the nirvana stage when in the lower realm. When you start to reach the peak of the nirvana stage your body will begin to feel a pull from the middle realm and you're Qi will turn into something called true Qi.' Haru thought to himself.

He didn't quite understand what he meant at the time when he explained it but from Han describing how it felt he now had a better understanding of what was happening. It was great to know about it since if he carried on down the path of cultivation it would eventually happen to him whether he liked it or not. 

And the only way to be able to come back to the lower realms is if you managed to suppress your cultivation below the level of Nirvana and then used a transporter to get back. Well, one of the only ways. The only other way was to become strong enough to resist the pull from the middle realm. And that was exactly what his grandfather did to be able to come back for only a few days. 

He didn't know which one would be easier but by the looks of it. Li Jun wouldn't let him break through the spirit soul stage for quite some time which was probably better for him in the long run but he still felt like it was taking too long. But in fact, the strength that he had gathered over the past three years would be impossible to gain for most people. 

It took him three years to be able to stand on the same level as the strongest people in the lower realms. That was a feat only seen twice in history. Even his teacher who had thousands of years of cultivation before his reincarnation didn't reach the same strength that Haru had now with only three years of time.

Haru was starting to feel impatient with his cultivation level being stagnant but then he looked up at the man sitting across from him. 

'Every cultivator I have met that could match me in a fight have been older than me by at least a generation Even Li Jun told me to expect diminishing returns when it took me almost a whole year inside the array to begin my path of cultivation. But it feels like I keep speeding up. Is that normal?' He had begun to space out while thinking about when it would be his turn to leave earth behind and go off into the middle realm. 

" So what I'm really trying to say is that since I have already given my family everything that they wanted. I don't really have a use for personal possessions. Sorry if it is a bother to you if I hand you this place as the majority shareholder. But I don't really have a use for it." Han finished.

It was at that point that Haru realised how much time had passed. It had been at least twenty minutes since Han had begun to explain his reasoning behind giving Haru so much money to compete for him. But since he had zoned out deep within his own thoughts he only caught the first and last sentences. 

He took a few seconds to make it look like he was processing what he had just been saying and then he pulled out the certificate that he was given with the invitation.

"So what do you want me to do with this?" Haru asked as he held up the thirty-five per cent shareholders certificate. 

"Do whatever you want. If you want to keep this place then all you need to do is sign your name at the bottom. If you want to give it back to me then I will happily accept it. Although you would be saving me a lot of trouble if you keep it." Han sighed.

"Just to make sure that I understand. You want to give this resort to me?" Haru asked once again. 

"Yes. For this last time. If you want it then just take a pen and sign it." Han said once again now getting a little fed up of being asked the same question. But he laughed slightly as he saw Haru reach over and grab a pen from the pot on his desk. 

Haru signed his name and then looked up at Han. Who smiled with sincerity. He had no ulterior motives for sure or it would have shown on his face or in his body language by now. He just genuinely wanted to give his wealth away before it would all go to waste. 

"And for the money relating to the competition I can transfer it to your account whenever you want it." Han smiled and then looked down as his phone vibrated on the desk. 

"No, I wouldn't feel right taking the money before the job is complete. I will take it after the competition is over." Haru smiled before Han looked up to meet his eyes. 

"You are truly an outstanding young man. I sent a picture of your name off to be searched and found your birth records, you are in fact eighteen as you said Where did you come from?" Han asked with even more suspicion.

Even though he was suspicious he didn't hold any animosity toward Haru at all. He seemed more bewildered by what kind of hardships someone would have to have gone through to reach unparalleled strength at such a young age. 

"How are you still here? If you are in fact stronger than me then you should have left this world right?" Han now realised that it didn't make any sense that Haru would be able to hide his strength before him. 

Haru didn't know how to answer but he did know that he didn't want to lie any more. This man would be able to see through any lie that he tried to make so he had to let a bit of the truth through to cover his other lies.

"Ok Well, I'm not technically stronger than you. Your cultivation level is higher than mine, and by quite a lot actually. I just got a little lucky and found a little blue gem in the mountains that helped my strength increase to the point where I can fight head to head with people stronger than me. 

I'm still at the spirit soul stage but the amount of Qi within my body is probably a bit more than someone at the nirvana stage like yourself." Haru tried to phrase things in a way that wouldn't cause offence and still keep it easy to understand. 

"You have a flooded soul ocean too!?" Han suddenly asked. 

"When I was young and still at the core refining stage I found an amber coloured rock that made a rupture in my soul ocean and allowed a lot more Qi gather in my body, But I broke through to the next stage as soon as I had enough Qi to do so. 

You are lucky. Make sure that you take full advantage of this situation okay? I hope that I will be able to ask for your help in the future when you inevitably surpass me." Han started to laugh and then the conversation was interrupted once again by his phone. 

He looked down at the screen and then sighed once again.

"Since. You are the new owner of this place then come with me. Let me announce to all of our customers that we are handing everything over to you." Han stood up and walked around the desk and put his hand on Haru's shoulder and smiled as someone knocked on the door from outside.
