Chapter 3 Assessment of Quasi-Martial Artists
"A single-family house? A base salary of 20,000 yuan?"
Listening to the words of the bald middle-aged man, Luo Feng showed a look of surprise on his face.
The scene of Zhou Yang and Luo Feng's test just now happened to be seen by Jiang Nian, the instructor of this extreme martial arts gym, and he took the opportunity to extend an olive branch to the two of them.
According to the other party, as long as they agree to join the Extreme Martial Arts School after passing the quasi-warrior assessment, they will be able to obtain the right to live in a detached villa and a basic salary of at least 20,000 yuan.
You have to know that in Jiangnan Base City, where every inch of land is valuable, a single-family villa, even a small one, is worth more than two or three hundred million yuan.
Although it cannot be sold, the family can live in a single-family villa instead of having to squeeze into a low-rent house of dozens of square meters. This is undoubtedly very attractive to Luo Feng.
Compared to him, Zhou Yang next to him was much calmer. After all, he already lived in Mingyue Community.
"Instructor, I have to discuss this with my family. Besides, we haven't passed the quasi-warrior assessment yet, and there is still the actual combat assessment to come."
Although he was quite tempted, Luo Feng did not agree immediately, but said that he needed to think about it.
Jiang Nian did not show any dissatisfaction with this, and said with a smile:
"No rush. By the way, are you guys going to take part in the quasi-warrior assessment on July 7? I'll be there then too.
Haha, this year our Yian District Martial Arts School has produced two little geniuses like you. My contribution points are going to increase again, instructor. I can’t help but want to see the envious expressions of those old buddies.”
Since their interview with Jiang Nian, the chief instructor of Yian District Extreme Martial Arts School, Zhou Yang and Luo Feng have become more diligent.
Luo Feng's dream of attending military school has been shattered, and instead he has devoted all his energy to practicing martial arts.
But this time Zhou Yang is in trouble.
Luo Feng would call him to go to the martial arts gym early in the morning every day. In addition to basic training, they would also often practice fighting.
I have to say that Luo Feng is indeed worthy of being the protagonist of a big world. His understanding of combat is abnormal.
Obviously, the two men had similar physical fitness, but when they started fighting, Zhou Yang could only get beaten.
No wonder he was able to fight one against three and easily beat up Zhang Haobai and three other high-level students.
Although he couldn't beat Luo Feng in a fight, when Luo Feng saw Zhou Yang's unrestrained training method that exhausted his physical strength, he opened his mouth in surprise.
You should know that the early training of a warrior is mainly focused on strengthening the body. At this stage, everyone proceeds step by step. They would rather go slow than over-exert themselves, for fear of accidentally damaging their muscles and bones.
Not only will it take time to recuperate, but I am also worried that serious hidden diseases will be left behind, which will affect my future improvement.
However, Zhou Yang's practice did not take this into consideration at all, he was really training himself to death!
To give an example, it's like everyone running 3,000 meters together. At the beginning, everyone must slow down so that they can ensure that they have enough physical strength in the second half.
But Zhou Yang, this kid, started running at the speed of a 100-meter sprint right from the start, and kept running until he was completely exhausted and fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
What’s even more infuriating is that every time I see him, he has clearly exhausted all his energy, but he just lies down on the floor, rests for ten minutes or so, and immediately becomes full of energy again!
By this calculation, every time Luo Feng completed a set of training, Zhou Yang could complete one and a half or even two sets.
You have to know that Luo Feng himself is a cultivation maniac and has even been nicknamed a madman.
At the moment, it seems that Zhou Yang is more suitable for this title.
"Yangzi, tell me the truth, have you taken any medicine?"
During a break, Luo Feng couldn't help but ask this question.
I heard that there are some drugs circulating on the black Internet that can quickly improve a person's physical fitness in a short period of time after taking them.
However, most of these medicines have hidden dangers. They all promote the progress of cultivation by stimulating the human body and squeezing its potential.
After using this medicine, a person's potential will be greatly reduced, and subsequent improvement will become extremely difficult.
This is equivalent to exchanging your own future for your current cultivation progress, which is not cost-effective no matter how you look at it.
Luo Feng was afraid that his good brother would not be able to get over the problem and choose such an unwise method.
Hearing Luo Feng's words, Zhou Yang was slightly moved. It seemed that his strategy over the past six months had finally paid off. Luo Feng truly regarded him as a friend.
"Don't worry, Afeng, I'm gifted! I won't do anything that kills the goose that lays the golden eggs."
After hearing Zhou Yang's assurance, Luo Feng nodded and felt relieved.
In this way, the two crazy practitioners kept competing with each other every day, spending almost the entire day in the Yian District Extreme Martial Arts School.
After completing their daily basic exercises, the two began to fight and compete with each other non-stop.
The two men have similar physical fitness. Although Zhou Yang is much worse than Luo Feng in fighting skills, he still has a huge advantage, which is his ability to withstand beatings!
In the first few rounds of sparring, Luo Feng held back a little, but gradually, he discovered that his brother was really good at taking a beating!
No matter how heavy the punches and kicks are, this brother can take it easily and act like nothing happened.
There's nothing much to say then, just go for it with all your might!
You know, for a martial artist to practice, it is very rare to have an opponent of equal strength.
What’s even more rare is that this opponent is particularly tough and there’s no need to worry about getting injured!
In battle after battle, Luo Feng was completely excited!
He just felt that since he started practicing martial arts, this was the first time he let go and fought, and he truly experienced the feeling of exhilaration.
And Zhou Yang didn't get beaten in vain. Through countless battles with Luo Feng, his own fighting skills have also been significantly improved.
In this pain and happiness, ten days passed in a flash.
Soon the day arrived, July 7st.
Today Zhou Yang did not go to the Extreme Martial Arts School in Yian District, because today is the day for the monthly assessment for prospective warriors.
The location of the assessment, the base camp of all extreme martial arts gyms in Yangzhou City—the Extreme Hall, is located in the Mingyue community where he lives!
Early in the morning, Zhou Yang was waiting at the gate of the community.
It was almost eight o'clock when Luo Feng, wearing loose training clothes, was seen walking towards him from a distance.
"Afeng, here!" Zhou Yang waved his hand vigorously. After seeing him, Luo Feng on the other side quickly ran over.
Looking at the magnificent single-family villas in Mingyue Community, Luo Feng's eyes were filled with great yearning.
"Yangzi, you are the best kid. You don't even have to leave the community to go to the headquarters!"
Hearing Luo Feng's words, Zhou Yang laughed:
"Haha, Afeng, don't be envious. With your strength, you can easily pass the quasi-martial arts assessment. Then you can directly join the Extreme Martial Arts School and get a villa. Maybe we can even become neighbors!"
Luo Feng smiled faintly when he heard this, but a more determined look appeared on his face.
"You must pass the test for prospective warriors!"
With Zhou Yang leading the way, the two soon arrived at the Extreme Hall located in the center of Mingyue Community.
The quasi-warrior assessment started at ten o'clock, so Zhou Yang and Luo Feng sat in the rest area, chatting and waiting quietly.
More people came around one after another, but neither of them knew them.
When the time was almost up, an acquaintance finally showed up.
"Ha, Luo Feng, Zhou Yang!" a loud voice rang out.
Zhou Yang and Luo Feng turned around and saw a thin man with a hideous scar on his face walking over. "Are you here to take the quasi-warrior assessment as well?"
"Brother Yang?"
Zhou Yang and Luo Fenglian stood up to greet him.
This person was none other than Yang Wu, a good friend whom Luo Feng met at the Extreme Martial Arts School in Yian District.
"Brother Yang, how are your preparations going? Are you sure?"
Luo Feng asked with a smile.
The skinny man Yang Wu scratched his head and said with a somewhat lack of confidence:
"It should be fine. It's embarrassing to say, but I've already tested it once last month. Unfortunately, I only reached 24.9m/s when measuring the speed. It was just a little short of the mark. I was so depressed!"
Yang Wu sighed as he spoke, obviously still bothered by the results of the last test.
"I believe that Brother Yang, you will definitely pass this time."
Luo Feng smiled and comforted him.
The three of them continued chatting for a few more sentences, and before long, a middle-aged man in loose training clothes came to their rest area.
"Everyone follow me upstairs and take the quasi-warrior assessment immediately. Remember, behave yourself when you get upstairs. An old friend of our chief instructor from Yangzhou City is coming today, so don't cause any trouble."
"Yes!"
Everyone, including Zhou Yang and Luo Feng, responded respectfully, and then followed the middle-aged man into the elevator.
The elevator goes all the way up to the 6th floor. When the elevator door opens, what comes into view is a huge martial arts hall.
There were more than a dozen people gathered in the martial arts training hall, including the instructor 'Jiang Nian' who Zhou Yang and Luo Feng knew.
"People are here, stop talking."
A middle-aged man with long hair spoke an order to the dozen or so people in the hall.
Zhou Yang's family lives in Mingyue Community, so he naturally recognized that this man was the owner of the Extreme Club, the chief instructor in Yangzhou City, and the general-level warrior "Wu Tong".
It’s just that the original owner didn’t have much talent in martial arts and had basically never been to the martial arts gym here.
After Zhou Yang traveled through time, in order to maintain his relationship with Luo Feng, he went to the Extreme Martial Arts Gym in Yian District to train, so this was the first time he met Wu Tong in person.
He glanced around and saw that there were about ten other people in the hall, who should also be some formal warriors of the Extreme Martial Arts School.
"Ready for the test!"
At this time, Chief Instructor Wu Tong said something lightly, and someone immediately went to debug the punching force tester.
"First is the punching strength test. The first one is Tong Guan!"
As Wu Tong's voice sounded, a bearded man immediately stepped forward, his eyes widened, he put his left hand in front of his face, and his right fist drew an arc and hit the giant dartboard.
The punching target only trembled slightly, and a number immediately appeared on the screen of the punching force tester - '986kg'.
"Come on, next, Luo Feng."
The chief instructor casually slid the second ID card over the instrument, looked at the detailed ID record, and was surprised:
"Hey, eighteen years old? Lao Jiang, this is from your Yi'an District, right? When did such a talented young man appear?"
He flipped through it casually and cried out in surprise again:
"There's another one here, Zhou Yang, also eighteen years old. Are all the geniuses gathered here?"
"Haha, luck, luck."
The instructor Jiang Nian next to him couldn't help but smile happily.
He knew the situation himself, but the dozen or so warriors next to him didn't quite believe it.
One of the fat old men laughed sarcastically, "Maybe he came here to see the world, but he doesn't have much strength."
Jiang Nian just glanced at this, with a slightly smug look on his face: "If you are jealous, just say it directly. I won't argue with you."
As he said this, he called out to Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, show us your skills and let these seniors see the strength of our Yi'an District students!"
"Yes, Instructor!"
Luo Feng took a step forward and answered loudly, then walked towards the punching force testing machine.
