Everything inside the Qiankun Intelligent Fighter had fallen quiet. Xiao Yu opened his eyes. During his earlier breakthrough, he had fallen into a deep sleep, and as soon as the breakthrough was complete, he awoke.

He glanced at the Auxiliary Optical Computer on his left wrist. It was now May 10, 2057.

This time, the system had taken a total of eleven days to complete his advancement from Planetary second stage to the peak of Planetary level ninth stage.

"Check my strength." Xiao Yu gave the Auxiliary Optical Computer a voice command. It displayed the words: "Strength: Gene Warrior, Planetary level ninth stage, 99.9%."

At the peak of Planetary level ninth stage, his physical base strength had reached 512,000 tons. With Gene Origin Force, it became 1.024 million tons. With a twofold Gene Multiplier and amplitude, it was equivalent to the power of Stellar third stage.

By Xiao Yu's current standards, his strength was not much in the universe. Even a genius from a minor faction could achieve a physical amplitude above ten at the Planetary level. Some could even reach thirtyfold or higher.

This improvement had increased his physical strength by several hundred times, so he needed training to adapt to the newly gained power.

From that day onward, Xiao Yu's figure could be found almost everywhere around the world, including glaciers, volcanoes, and the ocean floor.

During that time, he also hunted two King-level Monsters to test his skills. After handing the monster corpses over to the Limit Martial Arts School for processing, he received 200 billion Huaxia Coin, all of which he gave to his father, Xiao Dingguo, to manage.

This training lasted nearly three months before he completely mastered his strength.

During this period, Xiao Yu also kept close track of all kinds of news about Luo Feng.

On May 15, Luo Feng's Trial Tower level was 3.6, his exertion level was 3.5, and his Combat Power Amplitude was 12.6. He completed the first-stage objective and received a 9-Series Combat Suit, a full set of weapons, the full set of Nine Heavens Thunder Blade manuals, and a portion of Dragon Blood worth 80 billion.

After using the Dragon Blood, Luo Feng's Warrior strength rose from Intermediate General to Beginner War God.

In July, Luo Feng mastered the Fifth Level of Nine Heavens Thunder Blade. His Trial Tower level was 3.9, and his Combat Power Amplitude reached 16.38. He completed the second-stage objective and received an SS-class combat suit, a full set of weapons, two additional complete manual sets, and an Ancient Civilization Relic, Black God.

On July 31, Xiao Yu, who was in the Antarctic Glacier, received a call from Hong.

"Xiao Yu, come with me to the Elite Training Camp tomorrow and make an appearance. This will be the Elite Training Camp's first life-or-death adventure since you became an Inspector," said Hong, the black-haired man.

"Alright, Head of the General Hall." Xiao Yu smiled. "Head of the General Hall, my strength has improved quite a bit recently. We can spar sometime when you're free."

"Alright!" Hong laughed.

After receiving Hong's message, Xiao Yu took the Qiankun Intelligent Fighter to Hongning Base City in West Asia, the global headquarters of the Limit Martial Arts School.

He met up with Hong that very night.

Inside a Training Ground as large as a football stadium, the two stood at opposite ends.

"Xiao Yu, didn't you want to spar with me?" Hong said with a smile. "Come on. This entire room is made of special metal. Even Star level experts cannot damage it!"

"Head of the General Hall, then let's begin!" Xiao Yu said with a smile, dressed in a Third-order Force Combat Suit.

"You make the first move!" said Hong, who was also wearing a black Combat Suit.

Hong simply stood there quietly, displaying the bearing of a great master. A Master level aura naturally emanated from him and filled the entire Training Ground.

"Then I'll make the first move." Xiao Yu spoke.

The moment his words fell, the strength of Planetary level ninth stage burst forth. However, he used no exertion technique, no power granted by his Gene Multiplier, and did not target any weak points.

It was only a spar, after all. They would stop at the right moment.

With an Instant Step, his speed rose to ten kilometers per second. In an instant, he arrived before Hong, and the Lightning Blade of Void in his hand flashed with lightning as it slashed toward him.

Xiao Yu's speed startled Hong. His body tensed as he resisted with all his strength.

"Good!" Hong shouted excitedly, the battle spear in his hand trembling slightly.

Xiao Yu had discarded all enhancements. With pure physical strength alone, he was already fighting Hong on nearly even terms.

"Head of the General Hall, this Shadowless Spear is pretty good, isn't it?" Xiao Yu said with a smile.

As they spoke, the two exchanged several more rounds.

"This Origin Force battle spear is excellent. It is highly compatible with my Origin Force." Hong was drenched in sweat. "Xiao Yu, during that spar just now, you never used Origin Force! And from what I know, your exertion should be sevenfold by now, right?"

"Good! Then I'll use my full strength. I also hope the Head of the General Hall won't hold back," Xiao Yu said.

"Alright!" Hong laughed.

Xiao Yu instantly sensed an invisible force field covering the Training Ground. Heaven and Earth suddenly turned dark.

This was the Light Domain!

It suppressed one's aura and deceived one's vision.

This time, Hong launched the attack first. His spear specifically targeted Xiao Yu's weak points.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu's combat instincts were not bad, and his strength was considerable. Under sevenfold acceleration, whenever he detected Hong's attacks, he could always narrowly evade them all.

But unless he broke through Hong's domain, he could only win by no longer hiding the enhancement from his Gene Multiplier or by using his special ability, Lightning Avatar. However, this was not a life-or-death battle, so there was no need to go that far.

To win without injuring Hong, he could only use his domain.

Both of them possessed a first-layer domain, but Hong had delved deeper into domains and would surely be stronger. Still, Xiao Yu would not be affected too greatly, and the domain would also increase his own strength.

With that thought, Xiao Yu hesitated no longer. With a thought, a first-layer Lightning Domain unfolded within the Light Domain. Countless bolts of lightning naturally appeared in the void and gathered around Xiao Yu.

"Not bad! You actually comprehended a domain as well. You're far stronger than Thor!" Hong laughed happily.

Hong also knew that once Xiao Yu unleashed his domain, his own defeat was inevitable.

Yet he was not worried in the slightest. Instead, he was overjoyed. In his view, nothing was better than humanity producing an even stronger genius.

Moreover, sparring between domain users would only allow both sides to travel farther down the path of domains.

Sure enough, under Xiao Yu's extreme speed, Hong made one careless mistake, and Xiao Yu's battle blade swept across his neck.

A faint red line appeared on Hong's neck as blood flowed out. Within seconds, the wound began to heal.

"Alright, I lost." Hong smiled. "But next time, I'll win it back."

"Haha, it seems our War God Palace is about to gain another Speaker." Hong laughed loudly.

"Head of the General Hall, stop laughing. Sparring with you was exhausting." Xiao Yu put on an exaggerated act. "Head of the General Hall, don't spread word about our sparring!"

"Why not? Isn't it good to become Earth's First Strongest?" Hong asked.

"I still want to relax at home for a few days," Xiao Yu said unwillingly.

"Alright." Hong smiled. "I gained a great deal from sparring with you today!"

"So did I," Xiao Yu said. "I only comprehended the domain recently. It has not even been two months, and there is still much I do not understand."

"Good, then let's discuss it." Hong said.

Both of them gained a great deal. They talked through the entire night and agreed to spar once every month.

Later, after Thor learned of this, he joined them as well.

August 1 was the day the Elite Training Camp of the Limit Martial Arts School set out on its life-or-death adventure.

That day, all the trainees and all the War God instructors in the Elite Training Camp stood on the grass, waiting for Hong, the nominally strongest person on Earth, to arrive.

A blood-red triangular fighter slowly descended from the sky.

The fighter landed. "Whoosh!" The hatch opened.

Two Asians and one white man stepped out of the hatch at the same time, taking a step into empty air. They walked through the sky as though there were invisible steps beneath their feet, then descended directly onto the grass. Every trainee present widened their eyes at the sight.

"Why is Xiao Yu here too?" This was the first thought that entered Luo Feng's mind.

Xiao Yu was one of the two Asians who had just emerged.

After the three stopped, Hong's Light Domain had already blanketed the area before he even appeared. Within the domain, he was like a god. If he wished it, everyone else's strength would be weakened.

Hong, dressed in black, stood in the square like a spear radiating an imposing aura.

"The Elite Training Camp has a good batch of trainees this time!" Hong's cold voice rang out.

Before his subordinates and outsiders, Hong could always put on an impressive display.

"Head of the General Hall, this batch has quite a few promising seedlings," Inspector Wang said. He had arrived at the Elite Training Camp early to welcome Hong.

When Hong's will swept over all the trainees present, he suddenly discovered something unusual.

Hong, the black-clothed man, came to the side of one trainee. "You are Luo Feng. What powerful Psychic Power."

"Luo Feng really is a Mind Controller!" Candice thought from within the crowd. He remembered that his aunt had previously told him to keep an eye on Luo Feng.

Candice had a close relationship with his aunt, Vinina. To Candice, Vinina was both an aunt and something like a mother. His strength was so great partly because she had deliberately guided and educated him since childhood.

Naturally, he could not ignore something his aunt had instructed him to do.

Since Hong had said Luo Feng's Psychic Power was strong, then the likelihood that Luo Feng was a Mind Controller was practically certain.

After exposing Luo Feng's identity as a Mind Controller, Hong smiled and left.

Xiao Yu left together with him.

Inside a quiet tea room.

"You brat, don't tell me you didn't know Luo Feng was a Mind Controller!" Hong scolded with a laugh. "His Psychic Power should have reached Advanced War God level. There are not many War Gods stronger than him!"

"Haha, Head of the General Hall, doesn't Luo Feng have an enemy? Since he did not make it public, there was no need for me to spread it around either!" Xiao Yu looked as though none of this was his fault.

"Fine. Bring him over. I want to meet him alone," Hong said with a smile.

"Alright," Xiao Yu replied.

Xiao Yu went out to the square and said, "Luo Feng. Come with me to see the Head of the General Hall."

"Yes." Though puzzled, Luo Feng followed Xiao Yu to meet Hong.

When they reached the quiet tea room, Xiao Yu patted Luo Feng on the shoulder. "Don't worry. Your mother, father, and Xiaohua will all be fine. Hong will not allow such a thing to happen, and neither will I."

Luo Feng nodded.

Xiao Yu continued, "Go in. The Head of the General Hall is inside."

Pushing open the door to the quiet tea room, Luo Feng walked in.
