......
Last night was stormy, but tonight, the stars were bright. The starlight shone through the glass in the second floor's training hall. Luo Feng was swinging his ghost blade over and over again at an extremely high frequency. And every time he swung his blade, he pushed himself to his limit to unleash the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��, and since he bitterly practiced for 20 hours straight in the resupplying base, swinging his blade at an extremely high frequency would tire him out in just 30 minutes.
After that, Luo Feng would undergo his Dao-Yin technique training, 'Nine Stage Hun Yuan'.
Finally, he would undergo the genetic energy training 'Wu Xin Xiang Tian'.
"CHICHI~~" Luo Feng, who was undergoing 'Wu Xin Xiang Tian', sat cross-legged and couldn't help but to let out a face of joy. He clearly felt that all the cells in his body were crazily gobbling up the cosmic energy, "After finishing the first stage of the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��, my training rate almost doubled! And now, after completing the second stage of the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��, every cell in my body became even more hungry and can absorb even more genetic energy".
Time passed minute by minute.
After a while.
As if all the cells in his body joyfully burped, none of them could absorb anymore and were completely satisfied.
"After finishing the first stage, my training rate doubled! After finishing the second stage, even though my training rate didn't raise as much as the first time, it still increased by around 30%!" Luo Feng was amazed. The��Nine Stage Thunder Blade�� was indeed amazing and unrivaled. With that Dao-Yin technique, his training rate increased even more.
"I trained bitterly at home for a month and then trained in the wilderness for two more months. I wonder how much my strength has increased from these past three months" thought Luo Feng expectantly.
Indeed, Luo Feng was improving rapidly every single day for the past three months.
Since he's a spirit reader, his spiritual force has been subtly making his body stronger. This is one reason why spirit readers grow so quickly. Also, Luo Feng is training in the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade�� and has been fighting on the border of life and death for the past two months.
All three of these factors combined have made Luo Feng's rate of growth around five to six times faster than an above-average fighter.
"I'll go test for a bit in the Limit Hall tomorrow to see how strong I am". Luo Feng wanted to see the results of his bitter training.
���
Dawn, around 5 AM. Luo Feng was headed towards the Limit Hall.
"Crazy, up so early?". There were a few fighters doing their morning practice in the sector.
"Crazy, I heard you made a ton these past two months"
"You better treat us to something. Treat us brothers in this sector to a cheerful, good meal"
Quite a few fighters laughed as they gave their greetings.
Nobody knew much about Luo Feng's huge earning from the 'Hunter Silver Moon Wolf', but quite a few people in the circle of fighters recognized Luo Feng from the crazy slaughtering he did. Killing 10,000 soldier level monsters in two months is indeed a 'crazy' battle record.
So getting the nickname 'Crazy' isn't so weird.
Also, because of this, Luo Feng has gained much more respect from everyone. No matter how stupid someone is, killing 10,000 monsters will make you extremely experienced. Practice makes perfect.
"Alright, no problem, want to go tonight" laughed Luo Feng.
After entering the Limit Hall, a reception lady in the lobby saw Luo Feng and yelled: "Mr. Luo, so early, there aren't even any people here yet. Would you like something to drink? I'll arrange for it".
"Not right now, but prepare some tea and dessert. I'll eat it when I come down" laughed Luo Feng, and then he directly went up stairs.
Limit Hall's sixth floor.
Luo Feng was extremely thankful as he looked at the gigantic training hall on the 6th floor. This was where he went through the prospective fighter exam. Who knew that, in a blink of an eye, that prospective fighter from before is now a true elite fighter. Luo Feng turned on the fist strength machine and the speed testing machine.
After turning on the speed tester, Luo Feng stood on the track.
"Let's see my power". Luo Feng, who was relaxed, instantly shot out with a "HU" sound like an arrow leaving its bow. In a blink of an eye, he rushed through the track and started slowing down.
Luo Feng looked at the speed tester, and the display showed--"78.6 m/s"
"Not bad" Luo Feng's eyes flashed.
Normally, 60 m/s is what you would need for your body fitness level to reach an advanced level warrior. And 90 m/s is what you need to reach a beginner level warlord.
"Let me test my strength" Luo Feng walked in front of the fist strength testing machine, took in a deep breath, and let his force explode!
BOOM!
The fist smacked into the tester like a cannon ball and ferociously shook the whole thing, the display showed--'6,121 kg'��
Usually, 4,000 kg counts as an advanced level warrior. And 8,000 kg counts as a beginner level warlord. Of course, this is just a number that estimates your strength. Your true skill is determined not only by your body fitness level, but also by your record of slayed monsters.
Body fitness is just a portion of your strength.
"Now let's test the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��'s force exertion". Luo Feng took in a deep breath and then suddenly opened his eyes. He exerted force through his feet, which caused the entire floor of the training hall to shake a bit. The powerful force instantly carried from his feet to his waist. KAKAKA~~ each section of Luo Feng's spine held up, and the powerful force carried to his right arm.
At the same time, his waist and back let out two connected force exertions like the rippling on the surface of a puddle.
Connect!
Second stage of the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��, 210% power, explode!
As Luo Feng's fist moved, it continuously accelerated. It brought along an explosive shock wave, as it directly smacked into the machine.
"BOOM~~" the target fell down and then slowly straightened itself again.
The display also paused for a bit before showing the number--"12,928 kg"��
"Alright!" Luo Feng let out a smile on his face. 6121 times 2.1 is 12,854. However, fist strength is just an estimate, so it can be a bit higher or lower. In other words, Luo Feng's full power nears 13,000 kg of force.
His actual body fitness level is an advanced level warrior's.
However, with the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��, he reaches the beginner level warlord. And he is way past the required 8,000 kg. A beginner level warlord's fist strength is usually between 8,000 kg and 16,000 kg.
"Finally, let's test my reaction speed"
Luo Feng entered the reaction speed testing room and switched it to the 'beginner level warlord' mode and set it to begin 'in 5 seconds'. After pressing the red button, Luo Feng swiftly ran into the circle.
Inside the circle.
After around 5 seconds, "BEEP~~BEEP~~" the cannon of the reaction speed tester machine started rotating faster and faster until it reached an astonishing speed. After that, little rubber bullets shot out of the dozens of muzzles in the main cannon, which flew towards the red circle.
"So fast" Luo Feng stood in the middle of the red circle and started moving swiftly.
His steps were light, yet quick.
And very relaxed. If you could find someone who has the same reaction speed as Luo Feng, they probably wouldn't be as relaxed as him, because..... Luo Feng's technique has reached the 'Ru Wei class'. With the Ru Wei class' technique, Luo Feng is able to maximize his dodging ability.
PU! PU! Two bullets hit Luo Feng, but Luo Feng didn't hesitate and kept dodging.
One minute later, the cannon stopped rotating.
Luo Feng then walked to the display and looked carefully: "Hm? 60 seconds, 21 hits
, 0 contacts with the red light, excellent?" Luo Feng was amazed at this grade. He was actually able to receive a grade of excellent on a beginner level warlord's reaction speed test! You can clearly see the results of the Ru Wei class!
Actually, this 'reaction speed testing machine' technically tests your dodging ability!
And your dodging ability is dependent on your speed, reaction speed, awareness, etc. However, this is the best way of testing it.
"78.6 m/s"
"Fist strength of 6,121 kg, I can make it near 13,000 kg at best"
"Reaction speed test, beginner level warlord, excellent!"
Luo Feng was extremely satisfied with the results. He was clear that his body fitness level should make him an advanced level warrior, but with help from the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade�� and Ru Wei class, he's able to make his attack power and reaction speed reach a beginner level warlord.
After testing, Luo Feng went downstairs cheerfully. In the lobby on the first floor, quite a few fighters were sitting and chatting.
"Crazy"
"Luo Feng" Chief instructor Wu Tong was also there and laughed as he said, "Did you come this early to watch the prospective fighter exam? You didn't watch the past few times. Well, this time is good too, come and see how these rookies test. Maybe you can test them when the time comes?".
Luo Feng froze.
Prospective fighter exam?
Yes, today is 12/1. Every first day of the month is the day of the prospective fighter exam.
Chapter 67: The wargod who passed away, ‘Lu Gang’
Luo Feng couldn't help but to laugh. This world is indeed quite interesting. 5 months ago he was a member of the dojo that came here to test. At that time, his family still lived in a cheap home. In a blink of an eye, he's now living in the Ming-yue sector and is easily making millions!
"You should still do the testing, uncle Wu. At that time, I'll drop by and take a look" laughed Luo Feng as he sat on the side. A waiter immediately brought tea and desserts.
"Crazy" a dojo uniform wearing man, who was also an instructor at the Dojo of Limits, laughed as he said, "I heard that you killed over 10,000 monsters in the past two months? And that they were mostly high level soldier level monsters? Then have you reached the 'beginner level warlord' level?"
"Seems so" nodded the person beside in agreement.
Wu Tong also nodded: "There's no way that an advanced level warrior could kill all these monsters so easily. Even if Luo Feng hasn't reached the beginner level warlord level, he's basically at that level. I remember that Luo Feng is training in the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��, so it seems that the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade�� has shown its effect".
Luo Feng froze.
Isn't that why?
He killed over 10,000 monsters in a bit less than two months, and most of them were definitely high level soldiers. Indeed, it would be really difficult for an advanced level warrior to have such efficiency. No wonder they all think that he has reached the 'beginner level warlord' level.
"The��Nine Stage Thunder Blade�� is extremely hard to train in, and the price for that instruction manual is extremely expensive" said the other fighters.
"Yea, it is very hard" laughed Luo Feng as he nodded, "I just coincidentally had some small breakthroughs".
"Oh"
Everyone there, including Wu Tong, noticed that Luo Feng had a different look in his eyes. The��Nine Stage Thunder Blade�� is an ultimate instruction manual. Quite a bit of people have bought this instruction manual, but quite a bit of fighters have also failed to just enter the first stage. Training in this instruction manual means that...... you'll be able to dominate your battles!
"Luo Feng" a sound carried from outside. Luo Feng turned his head and saw brother Chen.
"Luo Feng, I heard you came back but I didn't think you would be here so early" laughed Chen Gu as he walked over, "Oh yea, are you planning to go to senior Lu Gang's memorial meeting tomorrow?".
"It's such a big case, so we're all going. Luo Feng, you come too when the time comes" said chief instructor Wu Tong.
Luo Feng sighed with emotion, and then nodded.
Of course he has to go to such an event.
Their senior, Lu Gang, who passed away in the grade 3 rat tide was a powerful wargod! Even though Luo Feng didn't personally experience a rat tide, he was in the wilderness when the rat tide exploded..... He couldn't help but to feel sorry for the dead. Seeing how his senior has passed away, naturally Luo Feng will go and pay his respects.
On the day of the prospective fighter exam, Luo Feng and the others watched the tender juniors' test. There were a total of 8 people, and 3 of them passed.
There was actually someone Luo Feng was familiar with out of these 8 people. An elite member of the Zhi-An region's Dojo of Limits. However, this elite member didn't pass.
Day 2, dawn. The temperature was low. In the funeral parlor of Jiang-Nan city's 'Heroes' Hall', security was extremely tight since many people were coming to pay their respects to their senior, Lu Gang.
The five members of the fire hammer squad were all gathered together, and all five of them wore black.
"There are quite a few people here today" said Chen Gu as he took in a breath. Luo Feng looked around, and just the surrounding streets were all filled with people who have come to pay their respects. Most importantly--Today is the first day of mourning, so only fighters, family members, high ranking government officials, etc. are allowed to come.
And from tomorrow until the seventh day, the regular citizens are allowed to come in to pay their respects.
Even so, there were over 10,000 people gathered here, and all of these people were upper class people in Jiang-Nan city. Some of them were at the top of large businesses, the government, and the army. There were also a huge mass of fighters. In the group of fighters, there were even powerful wargod level fighters!
If a wargod dies, it is normal for the other wargods to come pay their respects.
"The national television came too" said Luo Feng as he watched their vehicle.
"A wargod's memorial meeting is broadcasted across the entire country" said Gao Feng thankfully, "Barely any wargods die across the entirety of China each year".
Only fighters that are ranked wargod or higher can get broadcasted across the entire country. Warrior and warlord level fighters will never be able to enjoy such great treatment. Also, only the top generals of the army receive this kind of treatment too.
"Look, it's the mayor of Jiang-Nan city. He's over there, the leader that frequently appears on television".
"Hmhm, look over there, it's the head of the Xu family, one of the 12 families of the HR alliance".
After Luo Feng heard about the Xu family, he couldn't help but to look over. An old man who was a bit fat and had white hair all over his head, seemed to be around 80 or 90 years old. However, he naturally had an aura of high authority around him. Behind him were four of his subordinates.
"Over there is the powerful wargod level fighter Zhu Ge Shan. He's our chief instructor Zhu Ge Tao's brother".
Quite a few fighters were discussing.
The people who came here today were indeed important people. Whether in the world of the government, the army, businesses, or fighters, all of them were at the top.
"The memorial is starting" said Gao Feng as he looked ahead, "However, we have to wait for a bit before we can enter".
"Let's wait, we rarely get to see all of these people" laughed Chen Gu.
Luo Feng and the others stood by the street and waited in the back with a large amount of fighters. The VIPs ahead already started to enter.
"BEEP!"
A gloomy, dark saucer shaped fighter aircraft directly flew over from far away, and the army surrounding the heroes' hall didn't attempt to block it. And the powerful wargod fighters, the mayor of Jiang-Nan city, and all of the top officials in the army and government that entered the memorial all came out to greet.
"A big one ha
s arrived" Chen Gu's eyes flashed.
"Damn, what kind of person came?" even Gao Feng was shocked.
The people who were at the scene were already at the top of China's upper class society. For example, the wargod fighters were at the top of the fighters. The mayor of Jiang-Nan city is, without a doubt, a top official. There are only six headquarter cities in China, so he is much more important than a governor before the Grand Nirvana period.
However, all of these people have come out to greet.
"Who is it?" Luo Feng looked carefully. All the fighters, and even the reporters from the national television, stared closely. Nobody dared to make a sound.
Complete silence.
The saucer shaped fighter aircraft slowly descended, and its mechanical door opened.
A thin man who had an aquiline nose and whose clothes were black came down the steps of the fighter aircraft. It didn't seem like he was in a good mood, and tears could be seen in his eyes. Just his presence caused the people in a 10 meter radius to feel like they were falling into darkness. He is the deity in that radius.
"Mr. Zhu" a powerful wargod fighter spoke.
The aquiline nosed man sighed and didn't say anything. The wargod fighters, the mayor of Jiang-Nan city, and all the top officials from Kyoto city and the army nodded and headed straight towards the heroes' hall.
The other people followed behind him.
Complete silence.
Only until after these important people entered did discussions start to rise from outside.
"Who is that guy?" Luo Feng was full of curiosity. This is, without a doubt, the type of man who was at the top of the top of China. Wargod fighters rarely greet even a country's leader. Usually, wargod fighters don't respect high ranking officials.
"No idea" Chen Gu and the others shook their heads.
Gao Feng's ears moved a bit and then he said quietly: "Someone ahead said that the guy just now is named 'Zhu Xi'. I heard of the name Zhu Xi. Back then, he was an extremely famous wargod level fighter. However, I haven't heard of him since; he rarely showed himself. I read on the internet that this Zhu Xi has already surpassed the wargod level and is one of the peak existences".
