"Breakthrough?" Although the female soldier didn't like Park Jong-Hwan's arrogant attitude, she still couldn't help but add a bit of praise to her tone. "I remember that you were a three-star when you came. Now you're a four-star? You're still so young! A genius. "
"Really?"
Park Jong-Hwan smiled and didn't deny it. He had been called a genius since he was young. After a long time, he saw that the progress of martial artists of the same age was much slower than his own, so he gradually began to accept others calling him this.
Now that he had broken through to four-star strength, Park Jong-Hwan believed that there were perhaps only a few recruits in the entire recruit camp that could accomplish this. He was worthy of being called a genius.
Park Jong-Hwan walked out of the gravity chamber and enjoyed the illumination of the sunlight. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Let's go back to the barracks and take a look."
Park Jong-Hwan quickened his pace and displayed his four-star strength. Running amidst the wind gave him a kind of spiritual enjoyment.
Ten minutes later, the door of the gravity chamber opened again.
This time, they opened the door to the 1.5 times gravity room. The female soldier stared blankly at Qin Fen, who stood by the door.
This … this young man in a vegetative state was actually in seclusion! He actually came out of seclusion!
Compared to Park Jong-Hwan, who was in high spirits, Qin Fen had a face of exhaustion. He was about to die from exhaustion for the sake of breaking through to the four-star level. He didn't feel the joy of breaking through when he woke up. All he felt was the weariness of his entire body and the howling of his stomach.
I haven't eaten for too long! If the figure of light had not made some adjustments to his body, he would have fainted from malnutrition after being in seclusion for the past few days.
"You … you …" The female soldier didn't know what to say.
Qin Fen raised his hand to hold the door frame and asked weakly, "Excuse me … is there anything to eat at this time?"
"Yes, yes, yes." The female soldier saw that Qin Fen's body was weak, but his eyes lit up when he asked about food. She hurriedly nodded. "There's food here at any time. I'll take you there."
Qin Fen's footsteps were a bit weak. "Is it still next door?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll go by myself. I won't trouble you." Qin Fen nodded. The breakthrough this time was much more troublesome than the previous one. It would be better to prepare more next time.
When Qin Fen arrived at the small kitchen canteen of the gravity chamber, Chef saw Qin Fen for the first time. "Kid, you've come out of closed-door cultivation! Eh, judging from your aura, you seem to have broken through. "
"Yeah, I broke through." Qin Fen maintained basic manners and sat down at the dining table. "I'm starving. Do you have anything to eat?"
Chef gave Qin Fen a deep look. His gaze was completely like that of a senior looking at a junior, complaining that Qin Fen was messing around. "Let's see if you still dare to make a breakthrough next time. Who would break through like you? You don't eat or drink. Do you really think you're an iron man? "
Chopping vegetables, lighting the fire, pouring oil …
"Wait, you're so hungry, you need to replenish your nutrition. I'll make you something good. "
The chef tossed a few dishes that Qin Fen had never seen before into the wok as he spoke. The dishes and the scalding oil let out sizzling sounds without end, and it didn't take long for a large, piping hot, nutritious meal to come out of the oven.
Qin Fen was far too hungry. He gave the chef a word of thanks and immediately began to chew like a wolf.
The taste of this meal was worse than last time, but it was indescribably delicious in Qin Fen's mouth.
Sure enough, there was no such thing as unpalatable food in this world. People thought it was unpalatable because they weren't hungry enough! Qin Fen felt incomparably gratified that the point of view he summarized before had been proven once more.
The chef smiled as he began to make a second, extra-large, nutritious meal. Through his chat with Squad Leader Hao, he had faith in Qin Fen's self-control. No matter how hungry he was, Qin Fen wouldn't overeat and damage his body. He would definitely stop eating when he reached a certain limit.
As he stirred the large ladle, the chef picked up his phone and called Squad Leader Hao to report that he was safe. "Old Hao, that kid Qin Fen came out. He's eating at my place. Okay! I'll have him wait for you here. "
Squad Leader Hao was the first to rush into the dining hall when Qin Fen finished his third large nutritious meal.
"Kid! Are you okay!? "Squad Leader Hao grabbed Qin Fen's head with both hands and looked him left and right." What the hell are you doing!? Who goes into closed-door cultivation like this? Are you looking to die? "
Qin Fen could only smile wryly. Who didn't want to go into normal closed-door cultivation? The problem was that the figure of light in the dream clearly wasn't that easy to negotiate with. It firmly trapped Qin Fen before he could make a breakthrough.
"What are you laughing at? Impatience is a taboo on the path of the martial dao. You were a bit impatient in your closed-door cultivation this time. It's very easy for problems to occur." Though Butcher's tone was lecturing, it was still filled with the love of an elder for a junior.
Qin Fen could only smile bitterly. It was best to keep the matter of the figure of light and the liquid metal a secret. The scene of those people fighting to the death in battle that day clearly had something to do with the liquid metal. Who knew what secrets were hidden behind the scenes? It was best to keep it a secret even for the people closest to him. This was to prevent them from getting involved in any future dangers.
Qin Fen always deliberately avoided thinking about the scene of the liquid metal matter. Whenever he thought about the murder in the dark alley, he always felt that there was a very dangerous smell to it.
"Qin Fen is Qin Zhan's little brother." Phoenix's tone was filled with pride. "I told you guys to be worried for nothing."
"Yeah. We were worried for nothing." Squadron Leader Trash smiled until his eyebrows were raised. "I wonder who was the most worried these past few days."
Phoenix looked like she was about to hit him, and Gale Riley came out to dissuade her. "Okay, okay. It's fine as long as the kid is fine."
Qin Fen looked at the people beside him, and his heart was moved. Their feelings of care and concern weren't something that could be displayed through fake gestures.
Boor picked up a spoon and ate Qin Fen's nutritious meal. He spat it out again and again. "I say, Chef. Are you cooking or making poison? Are you trying to poison people to death? "
"Really?" Squad Leader Hao couldn't help but pick up a spoon and have a taste. "Can you make something even more disgusting? I think you'll be the one to provide Qin Fen's meals for the time being. Don't go to the cafeteria to eat. "
"Huh?"
Qin Fen, who was eating, was stunned for a moment. There were delicious dishes these days. No one wanted to eat food that tasted bad. The words of the cafeteria tasted much better than what Chef made.
"Consider yourself lucky, kid! If you weren't Qin Zhan's little brother and didn't enter the gravity chamber to cultivate, don't even think about eating my food. "Chef patted his chest and said," Since Old Hao has spoken, then I'll do it. "
Phoenix would only show her feminine side in front of Qin Fen. "Qin Fen, you are only eighteen years old right now. Your body is still in the developmental stage. Chef's food is getting more and more disgusting, but the nutrition is the best. If he were to specially cook for someone, he would make a different menu based on each person's body. He is the best nutritionist. "
Qin Fen got up and gave a sincere bow. It didn't matter if the food tasted bad. What was most important was that it was good for the body.
"Kid, it's not that I don't know how to cook, but it tastes good." Chef patted Qin Fen on the shoulder. "If a person is used to enjoying tasty food, their mouths will easily become picky. When their mouths become picky, other bad habits will quickly follow. "
Butcher interrupted at this time. "Kid, you've made a breakthrough. How about I test you out later? "
"Huh? I'm really tired. "Qin Fen had a face of pleading." You have to show me some mercy. "
Butcher was stunned for a moment. Then he suddenly saw a hint of a smile in the corner of Squad Leader Hao's eyes not too far away. His eyes immediately lit up, and he patted Qin Fen on the back. "Stop pretending with me. Put away the trickery you learned from Old Hao. I won't underestimate my opponent. "
Qin Fen looked at Phoenix in great doubt. Was his performance not on point just now?
"Qin Fen, it was your squad leader who sold you out." Phoenix pointed at Squad Leader Hao. "I was tricked by you just now, but you weren't able to trick Old Hao."
"Kid, next time try to hide your excitement a little more." Squad Leader Hao pointed at his own heart. "Your excitement just now tells me that you really want to give Butcher a pleasant surprise."
Qin Fen grinned. It looked like Squad Leader Hao's trickery was quite effective. If Squad Leader Hao himself wasn't here, then this trickery would have been a complete success.
"However, it's still worthy of praise." Squad Leader Hao looked at Qin Fen very seriously. "You have an honest personality, and you don't look to be shrewd or cunning. You really are good material for trickery."

Recruit camp, hospital.
The walls were white, and there was a simple hospital bed. The person lying on the bed had all four limbs wrapped in bandages and a thick cast. Bruises could be seen all over his face, and there was an IV inserted into his forehead. He was currently in a deep sleep.
Park Jong-Hwan was surrounded by other Korean recruits. He stood quietly by the bed, watching his brother's current miserable state. His easygoing face gradually darkened.
With today's technology, it wasn't impossible to use advanced technology to completely knit the bones together in a short period of time.
It was just that doing so would only knit the bones together. The meridians wouldn't be completely reconstructed during the knit process. This was because quickly knit the bones together would destroy the routes of the meridians, leading to permanent damage to the meridians. There would be practically no hope for the path of the martial dao.
Park Jong-Hoon was clearly a person with ideals toward the martial dao. Such a person could only use the most ancient methods to treat his body. He couldn't rush to knit the bones together.
"He fought with someone?" A dark cloud appeared between Park Jong-Hwan's eyebrows.
"Yes." A Korean recruit carefully answered, "He fought with a recruit named Du Peng not too long ago. He was injured."
"One-on-one?" Park Jong-Hwan was a bit surprised. His older brother, Park Jong-Hoon, was a three-star Neo Taekwondo expert, but he had actually been injured to this extent by someone using such a heavy technique.
"It was a one-on-one after the attrition fight. That person didn't stop when Jong-Hoon was defeated. He didn't stop until Jong-Hoon's four limbs were broken. "
Park Jong-Hwan's eyes glared. His essence, energy, and spirit fused together with a divine light akin to sharp lightning. The few Korean recruits who were swept by him subconsciously shivered.
"Attrition fight? It ignores the basic rules of the martial dao! Heavily injuring the loser is even more so trampling on the rules of the martial dao! Very good! Very good! The comrade lying in the other wards also fought one-on-one after the attrition fight? "
