At this moment, Lin Feng was surprised to see the two people at the door.
The golden-haired man was the 'Lieutenant Colonel' he had seen before. As for Captain Li Yun, his memory was still fresh. He was one of the three big shots of Fire Prayer Town.
"Captain Li!" Lin Feng saluted.
"Come here." Li Yun smiled and shouted, "Lin Feng, let me introduce you to Lieutenant Colonel Li Mang. He is a big shot! There are twenty cities and towns in the vicinity of Firmament City. Including Fire Prayer Town, five of them are under his jurisdiction. "
Lin Feng did not dare to be negligent. He saluted and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Li!"
He naturally understood what Lieutenant Li Yun meant. It was obvious that Li Mang's "official" was one rank higher than his.
"Brother, let me introduce you to him. He passed the preparatory martial artist assessment a few days ago and was recruited by Firmament Martial Sect. He is only eighteen years old." Li Yun's eyes flashed as he emphasized the last sentence. Suddenly, Li Mang's expression changed slightly.
"Lin Feng, have you succeeded in cultivating elemental energy?" Li Mang asked with a smile.
"Yes, after the preparatory martial artist assessment, I tried to cultivate elemental energy for the first time and was lucky enough to succeed," Lin Feng nodded and said truthfully.
Li Mang was shocked and his eyes lit up. He did not expect to find such a good seedling during this mission.
Lin Feng did not know how much he shocked Li Mang!
From birth to the first time a martial artist cultivated elemental energy, there was a gap of ten to twenty years. Their body had never actively absorbed elemental energy.
It was because they had been 'hungry' for so many years that the first time they cultivated elemental energy was the most shocking!
Some people were gifted and had shown their talents early on. Thus, they had already shocked the world when they were still Preparatory Martial Artists. Some people, on the other hand, would only 'awaken' after their first successful elemental energy cultivation, and their abilities would increase by leaps and bounds. Therefore, a martial artist's true potential was determined by their strength after their first successful elemental energy cultivation.
"Have you tested your speed and body strength?" Li Mang asked.
"100 meters in 1.4 seconds, body strength 7.3 titanium," Lin Feng answered without hiding anything.
Li Mang and Li Yun's eyes met. Instantly, they could see the intense surprise in each other's eyes. At the end of their first elemental energy training, only one in ten would be able to reach the standard of a beginner Martial Warrior. Those who could break through the standard of an intermediate Martial Warrior were the cream of the crop.
And to be able to reach the standards of an intermediate Warrior in all three categories, one was definitely a genius!
In the entire Cloud Sun City and the surrounding twenty towns, only a few excellent seedlings would appear every year.
But for someone like Lin Feng, who even exceeded the standard of a high-level warrior …
He was a genius among geniuses!
"Good, good, good!" Li Mang beamed and nodded in satisfaction.
Li Yun patted Lin Feng's shoulder and praised, "Little guy, I didn't expect your aptitude to be so good … I won't hide it from you. The first time you successfully cultivated elemental energy, your strength exceeded the standard of a mid-level Warrior, and your strength reached the standard of a high-level Warrior. I can assess — — your talent belongs to a first-grade genius! Looking at the entire Cloud Sun City's eight million people, it's a rare sight. "
Lin Feng smiled helplessly.
First-grade genius?
Others didn't know, but he knew very well that when he cultivated elemental energy for the first time, his strength had just exceeded the standard of a beginner Martial Warrior. Only after the awakening of his fire seed did his strength increase by a large margin, reaching such a shocking number.
Others only increased their strength once, but he increased it twice!
However — —
Li Yun and Li Mang didn't expect this. After all, the greatest increase in strength for a normal martial artist was the first time they cultivated elemental energy.
"Lin Feng, let me ask you, are you willing to join the Heavenly Martial Army?" Li Mang's eyes glowed.
Lin Feng was startled. He didn't expect Li Mang to invite him to join the Heavenly Martial Army.
"Lieutenant Colonel thinks highly of me, but this junior has already joined the Cloud Sun Martial Sect." Lin Feng cupped his hands and thanked him.
"That's nothing." Li Mang waved his hand, his expression unafraid. "You haven't become a true martial artist, so you can't sign a contract with any power. A verbal agreement doesn't count. Furthermore, how can a mere Cloud Sun Martial Sect compare to our Heavenly Martial Army? With your aptitude, if you join the Heavenly Martial Army, you can immediately join the elite army and receive the best treatment and training! "
Lin Feng nodded in understanding. Yes, if I join like this, then what's the point of the Martial Warrior Combat Test?
"If a normal martial artist joins the Heavenly Martial Army and signs a contract, they will receive a contiguous building and ten days' worth of starting capital." Li Mang looked at Lin Feng with a faint smile. "As for you, as long as you nod your head, you'll receive a military residence worth 100 days of Martial Coins, as well as 100 days of start-up capital. Moreover, you'll receive 'immediately'!
Lin Feng held his breath.
In all fairness, these conditions were indeed incomparably generous.
In other words, regardless of whether he passed the Martial Warrior Combat Test or not, he would receive two hundred days' worth of martial coins, which was 20000 gold coins.
If it was before, he wouldn't even think about it, but now …
"My apologies, Lieutenant Colonel." Lin Feng bowed slightly.
As a man, if he made a promise, he had to do it!
Since he had promised Zi Yao and Qin Lie, even if he didn't make any material promises, he couldn't go back on his word.
Li Mang sighed softly. "Since that's the case, I won't force you. However, if you change your mind, you are welcome to join the Heavenly Martial Army at any time." Li Mang shook his head and didn't say anything else. He left with Li Yun with a regretful expression.
"Phew …" Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief.
For a moment, he had been tempted. After all, this was something that could be obtained with a stretch of his hand.
As far as he knew, the Martial Warrior Combat Test had a disability rate of more than twenty percent. It was quite dangerous, but …
"I will definitely pass." Gripping the Leaping Dragon Spear in his hand, Lin Feng was full of confidence. He was now —
Times had changed!
※ ※ ※
Life in the military residence was peaceful and comfortable. At first, Lin Feng's family wasn't used to it, but they gradually fell in love with this kind of life. Lin Wanqing pushed her husband around every day, strolling around the shops, buying groceries, and cooking. When she was free, she would plant flowers and trees in her own garden with a satisfied smile on her face. Lin Yun's favorite place was the library. He would often drag Lin Shui'er along and spend most of the day there.
As for Lin Feng, every day, other than cultivating, it was still cultivating …
In the underground cultivation room, Lin Feng's upper body was naked. Sweat flowed down his back, and his bronze muscles were filled with explosive power. His right leg stretched out two meters, and like a spring, the spear in his hand turned into a streak of light. Accompanied by a shocking sound, it turned into a streak of light …
Gasping for breath, Lin Feng put the Leaping Dragon Spear on the ground, picked up a cup of water and gulped it down to replenish the water lost in his body.
"'The Basics of Spear Arts' says that no matter how complicated the spear art is, no matter how many changes there are, it cannot escape the eighteen basic movements of blocking, grabbing, and stabbing. Blocking is defense, grabbing is control, and stabbing is attack."
"'That spear' is composed of the four basic movements of stabbing, pointing, piercing, and stabbing. No, it seems that there is also the shaking and trembling of grabbing …"
As he practiced and groped, 'That Spear' kept replaying in his mind. Lin Feng pondered and comprehended.
"Logically speaking, this should be a very fast spear. Why did it turn into countless slow movements in my mind?" Sometimes, Lin Feng would inexplicably think of this question, but he didn't delve into it. For him, this was undoubtedly an opportunity. If there weren't countless slow movements replaying, he wouldn't be able to complete a simple imitation, let alone study it.
Spear art was both familiar and unfamiliar to Lin Feng.
He was familiar with it because he had been training with the spear since he was young for ten years. However, he was unfamiliar with it … Lin Feng only realized that spear art was too broad and profound after he read 'The Basics of Spear Arts' in the library. Even though he had been training with the spear for ten years, he had only scratched the surface.
Letting out a long sigh, Lin Feng picked up the Leaping Dragon Spear once again. His eyes were filled with determination.
There were no shortcuts in spear art, only hard work!
… …
Time flew by. Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the morning of the tenth day — —
"Whew ~ ~" Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Lin Feng, who looked like he was sleeping, slowly opened his eyes and emitted a sharp glow. After an entire night of elemental energy training, he was in high spirits. His body was in a state of slight excitement. Standing up, Lin Feng stretched his body and suddenly grasped the Leaping Dragon Spear in his right hand.
An ice-cold feeling spread to his heart, as if his blood vessels were fusing. Suddenly — —
Lin Feng's eyes lit up. His right foot stepped forward as fast as lightning. The force traveled from his spine to his right arm. The explosive force caused the Leaping Dragon Spear in his hand to shoot out like a dragon emerging from the sea. It emitted a loud and clear cry, and in a split second, flowing light shot out in all directions.
Chi! Thunder rumbled.
"Very good!" Withdrawing his spear, Lin Feng's face revealed a satisfied smile.
After five days of hard work, not only was he able to completely control his body, but he also had a new understanding of the mysterious warrior's' spear '. Regardless of whether it was the speed or strength of his spear, they were all greatly improved.
In his mind, the result of the strength test five days ago appeared — — 5016 Jin. Lin Feng smiled and shook his head.
Currently, the strength of his' spear 'was extremely close to 6000 Jin!
Gently brushing the body of the Leaping Dragon Spear, Lin Feng's eyes gradually lit up. He clenched his right hand tightly and left the underground training room.
Today was the day of the Warrior Combat Assessment.
