Chapter 4: Thunder Martial Arts School Also Wants to Poach People
At the exit of Monster Town, all the aspiring warriors walked out one after another.
Some people were covered in blood, yet their hands trembled with excitement.
Some were being supported by their companions, their faces pale, unable to even hold their swords.
Several heavy trucks drove out of the town, their cargo beds piled high with monster corpses and aspiring martial artists who hadn't made it out.
The atmosphere in the square suddenly became much more somber.
The examiner's cold voice echoed throughout the room.
"From today onwards, you must remember one thing."
"The privileges of martial artists are not for you to enjoy."
"Your status, money, villas, and resources were all earned by risking your lives and fighting monsters."
Many aspiring martial artists fell silent.
Luo Feng stood in the crowd, his fingers gripping the backpack strap with slight force.
He killed more than three hundred monsters.
It also saved people.
But when he saw those corpses, he felt no frivolous pride whatsoever.
The wilderness is only more dangerous than here.
Zhou Yan's voice echoed in my mind.
Don't let the atmosphere overwhelm you.
"I know," Luo Feng said.
"Good to know. Death is a martial artist's cost, and materials are a martial artist's cash flow. What you need to do is not to be afraid of costs, but to become someone who will never be swallowed up by costs."
Luo Feng did not answer.
The kill logs are being tallied ahead.
One by one, the aspiring martial artists stepped forward and took out the monster's left ear.
"two."
"Three."
"Six, not bad."
"Next."
Most people are considered to have passed if they can produce two or three.
If someone can produce more than ten, a murmur of approval will ripple through the crowd.
Not far away, Wan Dong walked out from the crowd.
The monster's left ear fell out of his backpack; there were quite a few of them, piled up in a small heap.
After the examiner in charge of counting finished, a smile appeared on his face.
"Wan Dong, fifty-one."
A gasp of amazement immediately rippled through the crowd.
"Fifty-one?"
"That's too strong."
"No wonder they recruited this person ahead of time at Thunder Martial Arts Academy."
Wan Dong listened to the sounds around him with a cold expression, but subconsciously glanced at Luo Feng.
The only person he truly wanted to compare himself to was Luo Feng.
"Luo Feng".
The statistics examiner looked up and called out.
Luo Feng stepped forward.
All eyes immediately fell on him.
Just now in Monster Town, many people heard about the young man who saved people.
Some people even witnessed him kill the suddenly evolved mid-level beast soldier with a single strike.
But hearing about it is one thing.
The actual statistics are another matter entirely.
Luo Feng took off his backpack.
Splash!
The first one is the monster's left ear.
Splash!
The second one.
Splash!
The third one.
In the end, he simply turned the entire backpack inside out.
A large number of monsters' left ears filled the metal basin, then slid off the edge of the basin onto the table.
The prospective martial artists, who had been whispering amongst themselves, all fell silent.
Wan Dong's cold expression gradually froze.
The statistics examiner looked up at Luo Feng, then looked down at the pile of left ears, his Adam's apple bobbing.
"number."
Two staff members immediately came over to help with the counting.
One minute.
Two minutes.
three minutes.
Finally, the statistics examiner took a deep breath, his voice much louder than before.
"Luo Feng, 386 novice beast soldiers."
The square erupted in chaos.
"How many?"
"Three hundred and eighty-six?"
"Is this still a martial arts combat assessment?"
"Are there really that many monsters in Monster Town for him to kill?"
The examiner continued, "There is also one intermediate-level beast soldier."
This time, there wasn't even a gasp.
Many people just stared blankly at Luo Feng.
There are 386 novice beast soldiers.
One intermediate-level beast soldier.
This is no longer an assessment result.
This is a massacre.
Luo Feng remained calm, as if he had only heard an ordinary number.
In my mind, the ledger is updated in sync.
[Kill confirmation for this match.]
[Elementary Beast Soldier: 386]
[Intermediate Beast Soldier: 1]
[Estimated value of pending settlement materials: 1097.5 million Huaxia Coins]
[Current total liabilities: approximately RMB 8992.5 million]
[Reminder: Materials pending settlement must be entered into the accounts after the military region's statistics are completed.]
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Congratulations, client, the first material bill for Monster Town has been confirmed."
Luo Feng glanced at the progress.
"The repayment is too slow."
"If you say that out loud, those people next to you will want to beat you up."
Luo Feng didn't say it.
But inside the monitoring building, some people were already getting restless.
……
Second floor lounge.
Wang Heng, the manager of the Thunder and Lightning Club, watched the video repeatedly.
In the scene, Luo Feng is seen moving among seven or eight monsters.
Each dodge was extremely small.
Every strike was extremely precise.
Especially when the mid-level beast soldier pounced on the quasi-martial artist, Luo Feng arrived from the side and killed him with a single strike.
That cut was clean and swift, unlike that of a novice.
The more Wang Heng looked, the more somber his expression became.
The officer next to him chuckled, "Old Wang, why aren't you saying anything?"
Wang Heng glared at him.
"What did you say?"
"Are you talking about Wan Dong from your Thunder Martial Arts School?"
Wang Heng said irritably, "Don't mention Wan Dong. Fifty-one left ears, normally that's genius. But compared to Luo Feng, he's like someone who's just out for a stroll."
The officer laughed even harder.
Wang Heng slammed his hand on the table.
"no."
"We can't let the Limitless Martial Arts Academy have all the benefits from this person."
The officer said, "Didn't he already sign with Extreme Martial Arts Gym?"
"A contract is a contract, and liquidated damages are liquidated damages."
Wang Heng stood up.
"As long as the person is worth it, Thunder Martial Arts School can afford the 300 million penalty for breach of contract."
……
When Luo Feng was taken to the rest room by the examiners, he had already changed into clean clothes.
As soon as he entered, he saw a burly man sitting there.
The other party had a very strong aura.
It's a sense of oppression that naturally develops after being in a high position for a long time and engaging in long-term battles.
"Luo Feng".
The burly man looked at him and smiled.
"My name is Wang Heng, manager of the Thunder and Lightning Club."
Luo Feng nodded slightly.
"Manager Wang."
Wang Heng pointed to the seat opposite him.
"sit."
Luo Feng sat down.
Wang Heng didn't beat around the bush.
"I would like to invite you to join the Thunder Martial Arts School."
Luo Feng's eyes were calm.
"I have already signed with Extreme Martial Arts Gym."
"I know." Wang Heng waved his hand. "The penalty for breach of contract will be paid by Thunder Martial Arts School."
He stared at Luo Feng.
"Not only will we pay the penalty for breach of contract, but I can also give you a top-tier training contract. You'll receive training from the global headquarters, access to the best resources within the Thunder Martial Arts Academy, and even the opportunity to receive personal guidance from Thor in the future."
Before Luo Feng could speak, Zhou Yan's account book was already flashing in his mind.
External credit endorsement verification.
[Thunder Martial Arts Academy is recruiting supervisors.]
[Recruitment conditions: Payment of liquidated damages, top-tier training contract, and access to global headquarters training resources.]
[Customer's credit limit is being reassessed.]
[Loan amount increased from 1.2 million to 8 billion RMB.]
[Note: Credit limit increase is not a repayment; the actual debt remains unchanged.]
Zhou Yan clicked his tongue.
"Luo Feng, you're valuable now."
Luo Feng ignored him.
Wang Heng continued, "You should know what the Thunder Martial Arts Academy represents. The world's second strongest warrior, Thor, possesses speed, explosive power, and swordsmanship that are all at the pinnacle of human ability. You have a microscopic movement technique and can kill a mid-level beast soldier with a single strike. Coming to the Thunder Martial Arts Academy is more suitable for you than staying at the Limit Martial Arts Academy."
