Go Get Your Martial Artist Certificate, Dear

"Dear, your little box is ready (^_^)!"

"..."

What the hell did she mean by "little box"?!

Could she not just speak properly?

The tiny flicker of joy that had just risen in Wang Teng's heart instantly turned into a bellyful of nowhere-to-put complaints.

The other party sent over another picture—

Weapon Storage Box.jpg!

It looked somewhat different from the one he had seen last time. The Weapon Storage Box was now entirely black, with additional silver Runes covering its surface, making it look deeply mysterious.

Mm~ it was just a little eye-catching!

"Could the other party be a Rune Master?"

Wang Teng could not help but speculate before asking.

"You even added Runes?"

"Yes, dear. Relying on mechanisms alone is far too outdated, so I added Runes. Once activated, the weapon you need will spring out with a 'whoosh.' It's super useful!"

"Not bad. Then the price must be a little higher too, right?"

"The price doesn't matter. If I can sell this Weapon Storage Box, my grandfather will surely smile in the afterlife. A little extra work on my part is nothing."

What a good person!

Mm, a filial good person!

Wang Teng remotely sent over a Good Person Card!

"Alright, I'll pay and place the order now. Ship it out immediately."

"Okay, dear! 凸(艹皿艹)"

Wang Teng realized that this person on the other end really liked using memes!

Could this person have graduated from China Meme Academy?

If not, then China Meme Academy definitely owed this person a graduation certificate.

"How about giving them a nickname in the future—Meme Maniac!"

Without getting anyone's consent, Wang Teng privately gave the other party a loud and pleasant nickname.

The price of the Weapon Storage Box on Taobao had already been changed—one hundred thousand!

Wang Teng clicked in and was just about to pay and place the order.

A notification box suddenly popped up—Sorry, you have not entered your Martial Artist Certificate number and cannot place an order!

"??"

What the hell?

What was a Martial Artist Certificate number?

Buying something on Taobao required a Martial Artist Certificate number too? Why had no one told him!

Wang Teng was utterly dumbfounded and hurriedly asked the other party.

"Do I need some Martial Artist Certificate number to buy things from your store?"

"Yes, dear!"

"Is there a problem? (((*)"

"What is a Martial Artist Certificate number?" Wang Teng fell silent for a moment before asking.

"A Martial Artist Certificate number is the number on a Martial Artist Certificate, dear!"

"..."

That explanation was impressive. It was no different from saying nothing.

"Where do I get a Martial Artist Certificate?" Wang Teng could only ask patiently. The person on the other end was probably a little slow in the head.

"You can take the certification exam at the Martial Arts Association, dear. Don't you have one? Dear! (○д)"

#!

Dear, dear, dear—what was with all the "dears"?!

A vein involuntarily bulged on Wang Teng's forehead. Chatting with this person would definitely give him a heart attack.

"Why does your store need a Martial Artist Certificate number?"

"Because this store is a high-end flagship store, dear. All products are only for Martial Warriors, so a Martial Artist Certificate number is needed as proof. It's in the store entry notice. Didn't you see it, dear? o_o ..."

Wang Teng hurriedly went back to look. After staring and searching for ages, he finally found that so-called store entry notice in a corner.

@￥#%￥...

He suddenly wanted to curse. You hid that tiny line of text among hundreds or thousands of words of product description—who could possibly see it??

"Can you ship it first? I'll provide the Martial Artist Certificate number later," Wang Teng asked.

"No, dear!"

"Why?"

"Because Martial Warriors must get certified before they can use Rune Weapons."

"There's such a rule?"

"Yes, dear. Hurry and get certified. As long as your identity is clean and you have no criminal record, there won't be any problem at all. The whole process takes less than half an hour, so it'll be very quick."

"Is that so?" Wang Teng nodded thoughtfully.

Getting a Martial Artist Certificate required a clean identity and no criminal record?

It seemed that the authorities were also very strict in regulating Martial Warriors!

But why were the few Martial Warriors I've encountered all the type to kill whenever they felt like it?

Wait, I killed someone. Did that count as a criminal record??

"If no one found out, then it probably... didn't count, right?" Wang Teng comforted himself before replying.

"Then I'll go get certified first."

"Okay. Once you get your certificate, I can ship it today, and you'll probably receive your treasure tonight (〃'▽'〃)."

"I can receive it tonight? That fast! What kind of delivery service do you use??" Wang Teng asked in surprise.

"You'll know when the time comes, dear~"

"Looks like I have to skip class again!"

It was morning, and only two classes had just passed when something came up again.

Wang Teng was somewhat helpless. He said to Lin Chuhan beside him, "Class monitor..."

Lin Chuhan had been lost in thought. She had originally wanted to ask Wang Teng for a favor, but after turning it over and over in her mind, she simply could not bring herself to say it.

When she suddenly heard Wang Teng call her, she was startled badly.

"What?"

Lin Chuhan practically jumped out of her seat. She turned toward Wang Teng nervously, thinking he had seen through something.

Wang Teng was instantly stunned.

I only called your name. Was that much of a reaction really necessary?

With a face full of black lines, he said speechlessly,

"I have something to do later and need to head out. You know!" As he spoke, he winked at Lin Chuhan.

Lin Chuhan could not help letting out a sigh of relief.

So he hadn't seen through what she was thinking. That scared me to death!

"Wait, you want to skip class again? The National Higher Education Entrance Examination is coming up soon. Do you have any sense of urgency at all!"

"Don't worry. I never do anything unless I'm sure of it."

"I'm off, then!"

Wang Teng waved and walked out of the classroom.

Lin Chuhan was slightly stunned. What a big mouth you had. Could you really do it, or were you just bragging?

The Martial Arts Association was an official organization established by countries around the world to manage Martial Warriors in a unified manner.

Only after every Martial Warrior registered and obtained certification with the Martial Arts Association was their identity considered legal, allowing them to receive certain privileges that ordinary people did not have.

For example, Martial Warriors could kill people!

Of course, this did not mean they could kill people at will. They had to have legitimate reasons, or they would still face legal punishment.

For another example, Martial Warriors could possess Rune Weapons.

On public transportation such as high-speed rail and airplanes, ordinary people were not allowed to carry weapons. But for Martial Warriors, as long as they presented their Martial Artist Certificate, it was legal.

There were all sorts of other benefits, which would not be listed one by one!

Wang Teng found this information online and only then understood just how important a Martial Artist Certificate was to a Martial Warrior.

At the very least, it made many matters much more convenient.

Of course, obtaining a Martial Artist Certificate also meant indirectly falling under the country's jurisdiction. Openly violating the rules would no longer be possible.

This was also a form of protection for ordinary citizens.

Heroes used martial force to defy the law!

That was not just empty talk.

Once someone possessed immense strength, they would become unscrupulous in their actions and difficult to restrain.

In the early days of the Martial Arts Era, quite a few riots had occurred.

Only later, when the country dispatched large numbers of Martial Warriors to suppress them with overwhelming force...

Did those people who believed themselves invincible under heaven finally realize that the country was still our country, not somewhere they could run wild as they pleased.

This showed just how indispensable the Martial Arts Association truly was.

Thanks to Wang Er for the 500 reward!

Thanks to Bei Yu Meng Er Yo, bro, for the reward once again!

Thanks to Shi A Rui a i for the reward!
