Claiming the Rewards

When Xu Feng returned and opened his laptop, it was already 1:30 a.m. But he did not have time to care about that. He swiftly pulled up the contract document he had signed with the Limitless Martial Arts School—a scanned copy of the contract he had signed.

The contract clearly listed a phone number. Once Xu Feng's Combat Power Amplitude met the requirements, he could call this number and claim his reward. Xu Feng took a deep breath.

He did not care much about a complete set of Nine Heavens Thunder Blade manuals, a Combat Suit, and weapons, but Dragon Blood and the Black God Suit were Xu Feng's true objectives.

Others might not know, but Xu Feng knew very well that Mist Island on the Australian Continent had more than a hundred Spirits of Plants!

They were among the few top-tier treasures in the Earth arc that could improve physical fitness.

They mostly appeared in uninhabited Wilderness Zones.

They were formed when grasses and plants absorbed vast quantities of Cosmic Energy and underwent transformation, gaining special effects.

They came in different forms, such as wild grass, vines, willow trees, and more, each with its own extraordinary properties.

Those with weaker effects could neutralize toxins, heal hidden injuries, regenerate severed limbs, and even extend one's lifespan.

The strongest and most precious ones

were Spirits of Plants that could raise one's cultivation.

The Thousand-Year Willow Wood Heart was one of the finest among them.

It was said that consuming one could easily raise a God-level expert to the peak of the God level, while also enhancing the consumer's cellular vitality.

The king among Willow Wood Hearts, the Ten-Thousand-Year Willow Wood Heart, even had a certain chance of elevating a peak God-level expert into a Planetary-level expert.

It could create over a hundred peak God-level experts and one Planetary-level expert.

Before Earthlings entered the universe, it could easily establish the seventh greatest peak power in the world.

The Spirits of Plants on Mist Island were toys Bata had released out of boredom to lure in powerful experts. Among them were over a hundred Thousand-Year Willow Wood Hearts, as well as one Ten-Thousand-Year Willow Wood Heart.

Even more precious was a Cloud-Piercing Vine seedling.

This was a precious plant that Stellar-level experts had no means to touch and Planetary-level experts were not qualified to even look at.

Even if this Cloud-Piercing Vine was a defective, stunted failure, it was still the greatest treasure openly known on Earth today.

And the minimum requirement to obtain these treasures was peak God-level combat power.

If Xu Feng absorbed Dragon Blood and put on the Black God Suit, he could not say with absolute certainty that he would obtain all these treasures.

But claiming a few Spirits of Plants and reaching the peak of the God level would not be difficult!

"Beep, beep." Xu Feng dialed the number.

"Hello. The training camp is fully committed to serving you. How may we assist you?" A deep voice sounded.

"Hello, I'm Xu Feng from the Elite Training Camp." Xu Feng had instead calmed down at this moment.

"Beep. Your information has been verified. You will now be transferred to a human representative. Please wait."

"Ding. Customer service is currently busy. Please wait a moment."

"Deng deng, deng deng deng deng, deng deng deng..."

Xu Feng's face darkened. Customer service had not gotten off work already, had they?

"Ding. How may I assist you?"

Hearing this, Xu Feng could not help gritting his teeth excitedly, his left hand clenching into a fist. Yet he still restrained a certain impulse.

"I previously signed a contract with the martial arts school. There are five reward clauses in that contract. As long as I meet one of them, I can call this number and receive the corresponding reward from you, correct?"

"Yes," the deep voice said.

"My Combat Power Amplitude has exceeded 12. I meet the first and second clauses," Xu Feng said.

"Please wait a moment while I check."

Only moments later, the voice rose slightly. "Ah, congratulations, trainee Xu Feng. Your Combat Power Amplitude is now 12.6, and it is currently 1:00 a.m. on July 29, before August 1, so you qualify for the reward clause. Your reward is a complete A-series Combat Suit and weapon set, any one set of manuals, one dose of Dragon Blood worth 80 billion, and a Black God Suit."

Success!

"Trainee Xu Feng, please provide the detailed information for the complete Combat Suit and weapon set you require, as well as the name of the manual set you want," the deep voice continued.

"I need an A-series Combat Suit, sized according to..." Xu Feng quickly provided the dimensions and styles of his Combat Suit, Blood Shadow Saber, and Hexagonal Shield. He also listed some auxiliary equipment, such as a communications watch, binoculars, and a backpack. Naturally, he also included the throwing knives he needed. "I also need the complete set of Nine Heavens Thunder Blade manuals."

"Lastly, there's the dose of Dragon Blood," Xu Feng replied. "Oh, right. Of the ten Q-series throwing knives I need, I'd like to replace two with SS-grade throwing knives. I can transfer the money to buy those two SS-grade throwing knives." Throwing knives were small and used little material. Even SS-grade ones were far cheaper than a Blood Shadow Saber of the same grade.

"These two SS-grade throwing knives will be included as part of the Combat Suit set," the deep voice said, clearly unconcerned about two SS-grade throwing knives. After all, an SS-grade throwing knife only cost 400 million at full price and 200 million at half price. The cost was even lower. Having issued such a massive reward, would the Limitless Martial Arts School care about that little money?

"The Elite Training Camp is inside the headquarters Base City. The reward should arrive at the training camp's main entrance within an hour. You can collect it there," the deep voice said.

"Within an hour?" A trace of delight appeared on Xu Feng's face.

He had not expected to receive it so quickly.

Excited—Xu Feng was truly too excited. After holding himself back in the study for twenty-three minutes, he could no longer endure it and hurried straight to the training camp's main entrance.

It was already 1:00 a.m., and the air had turned somewhat cool. Since it was the twenty-ninth, there were no trainees at the entrance in the middle of the night. "Trainee Xu Feng, why are you here so late?" The middle-aged man in charge of the guard troops at the main entrance called out with a smile. Of course, he recognized this famous figure from the training camp. "Something came up," Xu Feng replied with a smile. The guard commander knew the rules and did not ask further.

Xu Feng wandered alone at the entrance under the midnight breeze. In this wait, every minute and second felt unbearably slow. Whenever a vehicle passed the training camp entrance, Xu Feng would instinctively look up, but unfortunately, none of them were it.

"Beep."

A horn sounded as a large truck drove toward the training camp entrance.

"Beep. Allow passage." An electronic voice came from the main gate's guard system, startling the patrolling soldiers and everyone else present. The Elite Training Camp's numerous systems were controlled by intelligent systems rather than people. Normally, even vehicles belonging to the martial arts school were not qualified to enter. The main gate opened automatically. The large truck drove in. That should be it. Xu Feng quickly stepped aside. The truck seemed to notice him and drove directly to the open space nearby before stopping. With a clatter, the truck's rear doors opened, and a voice called out, "Trainee Xu Feng, please get in."

Xu Feng hurried to the truck's rear door. Before he could climb aboard, a blue light shone over him, and an electronic voice sounded. "Trainee Xu Feng, identity confirmed. Please get in." The truck compartment was quite luxurious. There were three people inside, all looking at Xu Feng in surprise. "This is Xu Feng?"

"I wonder what headquarters is having us escort this time. It actually sent all three of us." Of the three inside the compartment, one was Asian and two were white. They spoke Chinese among themselves. Chinese was the common language in Hong Ning Base City, so most people at headquarters knew Chinese.

Xu Feng jumped into the truck and looked into the compartment. At a glance, he saw a large coded case. Judging by its size, it could indeed hold a shield, a Blood Shadow Saber, and the like.

At this moment,

the same blue light shone over the coded case.

"Reward items confirmed. No errors," the electronic voice announced. "Trainee Xu Feng, please receive your reward items."

Xu Feng stepped forward.

One of the three, a tall white man, picked up the coded case and held it out directly before Xu Feng.

"Hello, sir. Your takeout has arrived—cough, cough! I mean, your delivery has arrived," the white man said with a grin.

"Thank you." Xu Feng smiled and accepted the coded case.

The enormous reward was in his hands. The Dragon Blood was in his hands.

Carrying the coded case, Xu Feng swiftly returned to his residence.

Jiangnan Pavilion, underground secret chamber.

"Clack, clack..." Xu Feng turned the heavy lock on the underground chamber's alloy door. Now that he had obtained the Dragon Blood, he naturally had to use it immediately. If he did not use it and some trainee discovered that he had Dragon Blood, someone might steal it. Then he would not even have a place to cry. Using Dragon Blood was an important matter. To prevent anyone from disturbing him, he would settle it in the underground secret chamber. The lights illuminated the entire chamber.
