Swallowed Star

by Alexander Buchanez

  He understood the reasoning behind it but, when he actually has to do it, he can't maintain the state for a long time.

  "HOWL~~"

  With a howl that flew up to the skies, the entire ocelot horde retreated with their leader like a receding ocean. They quickly left. Even though the ocelots were enraged and filled with hatred when they left, the ocelot leader was clear: even if the entire horde was sacrificed, they wouldn't be able to eradicate this human fighter.

  "You must be the famous crazy from our Jiang-Nan headquarter city. Now that I saw it for myself, you are indeed powerful. I am the captain of the North River squad, Kang Wei" the man with a scar on his face passionately walked over.

  Luo Feng smiled as he walked over. A sound then rang at this time: "Luo Feng!"

  A bald young man whose battle uniform had some marks of blood on it walked over and stared at Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, I'm Guo Hai..... you should've heard my name before"

  "Guo Hai?" Luo Feng looked at the young man in front of him, "You're the one who became an intermediate level warlord at the age of 21?". Of course Luo Feng remembers this name. When Xu Gang was ridiculing him back then, he mentioned two peopleһһһthe genius fighter 'Guo Hai' and the 'Wang Xing Ping' from the Wang family. They count as his rivals in love. "That's me" a smile appeared on Guo Hai's face, "You probably heard from Xu Gang"

  "Hm?" Luo Feng frowned.

  "We'll compete on equal terms for Xu Xin!" Guo Hai's eyes were flashing, "Luo Feng, I admit your technique is superb. You're not the kind of person who only just barely stepped into the Ru Wei class and makes mistakes every so often. Your Ru Wei class technique is almost perfect. In terms of technique, I'm inferior to you. At least for this point, I'll praise you"

  By this time, the fire hammer squad members and the fighter squad of the Dojo of Limits that was saved by them came over.

  "The thunder Dojo's genius fighter Guo Hai?"

  Of course Gao Feng, Chen Gu, and the others knew about Guo Hai. Guo Hai was extremely famous! He was also scouted for the Thunder Dojo back then.

  "However, Luo Feng, by the end of this year, I should be able to become an advanced level warlord!" Guo Hai slightly smiled, "I think a 22 year old advanced level warlord is enough for the Xu family to give their daughter's hand in marriage to me". Guo Hai was a very calm person. When he first heard of Luo Feng, Guo Hai didn't even give a second thought about him at all.

  However, he felt a threat when he saw Luo Feng's performance today, which was why he said all of that!

  "Even if the Xu family is willing, Xu Xin has to agree as well" frowned Luo Feng. Because of Xu Xin's identity, many people are sure to chase after Xu Xin. Who knew that he would actually meet a rival in love today.

  "Hm?" Luo Feng looked towards the far away sky and saw a dark blue light flash through the sky. After that, it stopped above them. This beautiful, dark blue colored UFO-shaped fighter jet then started to descend and actually stopped on a street around a dozen meters away from Luo Feng and the others.

  Chapter 107: B Grade Exam?

  The sky wasn't dark; the streets were flowing with the fresh blood of monsters. The fighter jet that descended through the cold air attracted the gaze of all the fighters present. The last time Luo Feng saw such a fighter jet was during the rat tide incident.

  "What's a fighter jet doing here, and even stopping right in front of us. Who are they looking for?" Luo Feng was full of suspicion.

  The other fighters on the side started quietly discussing.

  "A fighter jet?"

  "Is this fighter jet from the military or a wargod's personal aircraft?"

  The members of the fire hammer squad, the north river squad, and the rescued 'Arctic Fox' squad all looked towards the fighter jet with suspicion. Normally, fighters would rarely even see a fighter jet flying by in the air over the course of a year in the wilderness. And don't even mention a fighter jet stopping right in front of them.

  "HUA!"

  The hatch of the aircraft opened.

  Luo Feng looked carefully and saw two shadows jump off one by one. The two of them were wearing black battle uniforms. One walked in front of the other as they came over, and the one behind was one of Jiang-Nan city's big four: Zhu Ge Tao! Zhu Ge Tao was even smiling towards Luo Feng.

  "Chief Zhu Ge Tao"

  "Chief"

  Luo Feng, Gao Feng, the other fire hammer squad members, and the rescued arctic fox squad members all yelled respectfully. The north river squad said nothing on the side, since they were from the Thunder Dojo.

  However, the members of the fire hammer squad, the arctic fox squad, and the north river squad were all confused. One of the great big four of Jiang-Nan headquarter city was walking behind this middle aged man like an assistant?

  Who is this middle aged man?

  "Luo Feng, Gao Feng, and Tao Ke, let me introduce to you guys" smiled Zhu Ge Tao as he stood next to the middle aged man, "This is envoy Mr. Yang who arrived from the Dojo of Limits world headquarters. Mr. Yang is a wargod level fighter"

  The members of the fire hammer squad and the arctic fox squad were all stunned.

  "Mr. Yang" the people all yelled respectfully.

  "Yea"

  The wargod Mr. Yang just nodded and didn't say anything more to the fighters. His gaze scanned across the group and quickly landed on Luo Feng! This scene instantly confused the other fighters. Why is this envoy from the Dojo of Limits world headquarters staring at Luo Feng?

  Of course, Yang Hui has seen Luo Feng's photos before.

  "Luo Feng" spoke Yang Hui.

  "Mr. Yang" responded Luo Feng, his heart full of confusion.

  Zhu Ge Tao smiled on the side as he looked at Luo Feng: "Luo Feng, Mr. Yang rushed to Jiang-Nan city from the Dojo of Limits world headquarters mainly for you. Mr. Yang worked quite a bit for you, so you have to thank him deeply"

  Indeed, even though Mr. Yang has the common sickness called 'arrogance' that all wargods have... he still cares about his talented juniors. If Yang Hui didn't apply for Luo Feng to enter the 'elite training camp', Luo Feng wouldn't even have the chance to take the exam.

  "No need for thanks, Luo Feng's own hard work earned him this chance" Yang Hui slightly smiled.

  Luo Feng was still full of confusion.

  What is this Yang Hui and Zhu Ge Tao talking about? How come he has no idea what's going on?

  "Luo Feng, come, get on the fighter jet" persuaded Zhu Ge Tao, and right after, commanded the fire hammer squad members, "Gao Feng, you fire hammer squad members temporarily halt your actions in the wilderness and return to the headquarter city. From today on, Luo Feng won't be in your fire hammer squad anymore, so you guys have to make the necessary preparations".

  "What?"

  Luo Feng and the other fire hammer squad members were all flabbergasted.

  "Chief, what is going on?" asked Luo Feng.

  "I'll tell you when we return to the headquarter city" Zhu Ge Tao scanned the area. Even though he doesn't have to keep this a secret, he still doesn't want to talk about this in front of so many people.

  With the gaze of many sending them off, Luo Feng got on the fighter jet with Zhu Ge Tao and envoy Yang Hui. The fighter jet quickly ascended and turned into a dark blue light which directly disappeared into the horizon.

  Gao Feng, Chen Gu, Wei Tie, and Wei Qing all had complicated looks on their faces.

  They could tell.

  The fire hammer squad was going to be disbanded!

  It was clear when Zhu Ge Tao said the phrase, "Luo Feng won't be in your fire hammer squad anymore". And today, a wargod and a chief of the Dojo of Limits personally came to pick up Luo Feng. Something big is probably going to happen!

  "Luo Feng is probably going to the Dojo of Limits world headquarters and undergo special training" said the captain of the arctic fox squad, Tao Ke.

  "Most likely"

  "Indeed, Luo Feng's strength earns him that special right"

  "Don't spout nonsense. Special training in the
world headquarters isn't big enough for a wargod and a chief to personally rush to the wilderness. In our Thunder Dojo, two or three people in the entire headquarter city have the right to undergo special training, as long as a chief applies for it and an envoy comes to test them. Why would an envoy wargod come all the way to the wilderness?" the captain of the north river squad, Kang Wei, shook his head, "Unless... it's the legendary wargod preparation camp!"

  "Wargod preparation camp?"

  Guo Hai took in a deep breath and his face changed dramatically. The legendary #1 camp in the entire world. It's real name is the 'elite training camp' but is called the 'wargod preparation camp' by fighters because every fighter that enters the camp has a 90% chance of becoming a wargod! The other 10% is for those who become handicapped or die in the camp.

  "This Luo Feng, entered the wargod preparation camp?" Guo Hai couldn't help but to clench his fists.

  A complex feeling would naturally appear because of a rival in love.

  "In all of Jiang-Nan headquarter city, only one person enters the wargod preparation camp every few years. And he entered? Impossible" Guo Hai's face had an extremely unpleasant look on it.

  ���

  Whoosh!

  The dark blue UFO-shaped fighter jet formed a light and quickly arrived at the skies above Jiang-nan headquarter city. It then started to slowly descend.

  "Luo Feng, we have arrived at the headquarter city. Get off the jet immediately" said Zhu Ge Tao.

  "So fast" Luo Feng looked at this fighter jet.

  A few statistics of the fighter jets aren't made public. Using what he witnessed when the fighter jet flew over to the wilderness, just the naked eye was enough to tell him that this fighter jet was moving at a few times faster than the speed of sound! Over 1,000 meters in a second is definitely reasonable. Adding to that, the fighter jet was following the path of a straight line.

  It took mere seconds for the fighter jet to arrive at the headquarter city from #023 city.

  The hatch opened automatically and Zhu Ge Tao, Luo Feng, and Yang Hui jumped off the jet. The fighter jet landed on the roof of the Dojo of Limits headquarters.

  The Dojo of Limits headquarters building. The main layer was an extremely gigantic training hall. The entire training hall was silverish white, and a man in a white dojo uniform was sitting cross legged in the center.

  "Ding!"

  The elevator door opened and Luo Feng followed Zhu Ge Tao and Yang Hui as he entered this gigantic training hall. When he first entered, Luo Feng's gaze was attracted by the man in the white dojo uniform. He could feel that an energy invisible to the naked eye was currently pulsing around the man in the white dojo uniform.

  "His hands are quite large" Luo Feng realized with a glance that the man's hands were almost like fans: his one hand was comparable to the size of a normal person's two hands combined.

  "Arrived?"

  The man in the white dojo uniform stood up and smiled as he looked at Luo Feng, "You must be Luo Feng. Oh, old Yang, are you preparing to let Luo Feng take the exam in my Jiang-Nan headquarter city?". Yang Hui slightly hesitated. The man in the white dojo uniform continued: "After you went to search for Luo Feng, I've thought about it carefully. Applying for the test in a headquarter city is quite troublesome. Whether Luo Feng passes or fails, he'll be going to the world headquarters anyway. If so, then he might as well go to the headquarters to take the test; that would be much more simple"

  "You're right" laughed Yang Hui, "Indeed, if Luo Feng passes, he'll enter the 'elite training camp'. If he fails, he'll enter the 'basics training camp'"

  No matter what, there's absolutely no problem for Luo Feng to pass for the basics training camp.

  Luo Feng listened to the two with confusion. What exactly is this test that they have been mentioning?

  "Luo Feng, this is the chairman of our Jiang-Nan city Dojo of Limits headquarters" said Zhu Ge Tao softly. Luo Feng realized: it was him!

  Zhou Zheng Yong, wargod level fighter. The man nicknamed 'steel hand', the chairman of the Jiang-Nan city Dojo of Limits headquarters.

  Zhou Zheng Yong and Yang Hui talked for a bit before looking at Luo Feng.

  "Luo Feng, our Dojo of Limits world headquarters has two big camps: the basics training camp and the elite training camp. You know about this right?" said Yang Hui.

  "Not clearly" Luo Feng shook his head.

  Zhou Zheng Yong laughed loudly on the side: "You must have heard of the special training before"

  Luo Feng nodded. The Thunder Dojo used this special training contract to attract him.

  "The basics training camp accepts geniuses from all over the world and supplies them with the best resources!"

  "The elite training camp is the #1 training camp on earth. It accepts the geniuses of geniuses, demon-like students" Zhou Zheng Yong looked at Luo Feng, "Similarly, the elite training camp has an astonishing amount of resources, and your teachers will be wargods at least! There are "examiners" and even those who have surpassed the wargod level, "investigators", too! Even the world's strongest fighter, "Hong", goes to the camp. The second strongest fighter, "Thunder God", is invited there too!"

  Luo Feng froze.

  The elite training camp? Accepts demons only? Their teachers are at least wargod level? Even Hong and Thunder God go there?

  "Not only do you have the best teachers, but you even have the world's most advanced technology supplied to you in the elite training camp. Some of them were even treasures excavated from archaeological ruins. You will receive the most perfect training!" Zhou Zheng Yong stared at Luo Feng and tried to hide his excitement as he spoke.

  Yang Hui sighed on the side: "The world's most genius students, best teachers, and best equipment gathered. The elite training camp which is #1 in every aspect! As long as you don't die, you'll become a wargod!"

  Luo Feng blinked twice.

  "Of course, each spot in the elite training camp is priceless! Even huge families rarely get a spot even after spending tens of billions!" Yang Hui looked at Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, you have a chance to enter the world's best training camp. The only requirement is that you must pass the B grade exam!"

  Chapter 108: Grasp the Chance

  Luo Feng held his breath in.

  A huge family that uses its various connections and tens of billions can't even secure a spot? And there are archaeological treasures used for equipment?

  "Archaeological ruins, there are really archaeological ruins?" Luo Feng couldn't help but to ask.

  "Of course" smiled Yang Hui, "There's more than just a single archaeological site. Most regular civilians don't know this, and many fighters don't know this either. Only an extremely small number of core people and elite existences know these secrets" Yang Hui has long determined that Luo Feng will become a wargod.

  So of course, he didn't hide any of this.

  "Mr. Yang Hui, chairman, this #1 training camp can rapidly increase people's strength?" continued Luo Feng.

  "Without a doubt!"

  Chairman Zhou Zheng Yong was filled with confidence, "Your body fitness level, technique, blade technique, battle experience, etc. are all irrelevant! Your rate of improvement in the camp will be who knows how many times faster than your own bitter training! Keep in mind that the best equipment and setup is there. The equipment there, especially the ones from the archaeological ruins, are extremely beneficial to a fighter's growth"

  "Who knows how many times faster?" Luo Feng started thinking to himself.

  His current body fitness level growth rate was quite fast already.

  If he entered this #1 training camp on earth and had the assistance of the best possible equipment, he'll probably become an advanced level wargod fighter much faster.

  "If I stay in Jiang-Nan headquarter city, I still have to be careful of the Vulture Scorpion couple's investigation. Rather than being on my toes all day, why not go to the "world's best training camp". Since it's a core area of the Dojo of Limits headquarters, Vulture and Scorpion won'
t be able to find it" Luo Feng instantly made his decision.

  Figure out a way to enter the world's best training camp! That's where all the geniuses of earth are gathered. Competing with all these geniuses is indeed a very entertaining thing.

  "Any more questions?" Yang Hui and Zhou Zheng Yong looked at Luo Feng.

  "When can I return after entering this training camp?" asked Luo Feng.

  "The elite training camp lasts for five years! In these five years, the only times you get to go home is during January and February" Yang Hui continued to answer, "Of course, if you become a wargod level fighter within these five years, you can graduate early"

  Luo Feng slightly nodded.

  Become a wargod and graduate! If you can't become a wargod, then you can stay for at most five years.

  "However, even if many students" laughed Zhou Zheng Yong on the side, "reach the wargod level, they won't prove their true strength by hunting and bringing back a horde leader level monster back to the training camp. They'll use the identity of 'advanced level warlord' and continue to stay at the camp until their five years are up"

  Their level is determined by their battle record! Even if some students are wargods, if they won't hunt any horde leader level monsters, they'll never be recognized as wargods! This way, they can stay until their five years are up.

  "Luo Feng, even wargods dream about entering the elite training camp. So even if you become a wargod, you should continue to stay there" reminded Yang Hui, and then laughed, "Of course, if you do actually get in, you'll find out how great it is for yourself"

  Luo Feng nodded and was awed..... looks like this elite training camp is quite attractive.

  "Yang Hui, what is the B grade exam?" Luo Feng continued to ask.

  "Your test"

  Yang Hui seriously spoke, "The B grade exam..... is extremely difficult! You have quite a lot of control over your body since you've already reached the third stage of the��Nine Stage Thunder Blade��. However, your chances of passing the B grade exam..... " when he said that, Yang Hui shook his head. Clearly, he didn't have much confidence in Luo Feng.
