Inspector Liu

Second-floor audiovisual room.

Yang Wu unplugged the power and stopped watching. This lousy online store—the entire giant screen seemed to be displaying only three words to him.

You're so poor!

Updating his weapons and equipment was something he could not hope for right now. Although his strength had improved, poor was poor. He truly could not afford it.

"Eh, that's not right!"

Yang Wu left the audiovisual room. As he passed the training hall, his eyes suddenly caught sight of the punch strength tester in the corner.

It was completely intact!

Only then did Yang Wu realize that something seemed off about this tester.

He walked up to the tester again and turned it on. Once its display lit up, he aimed his right fist at the target and took a deep breath.

"Bang!"

Yang Wu's right fist was like a meteor plummeting at high speed, carrying bursts of sonic booms as it smashed fiercely into the punch strength tester's target.

The target shook violently. Yang Wu immediately looked at the display above the tester, where a line of numbers had appeared—

"774168 kg."

Seven hundred seventy-four thousand kilograms.

With his body exerting force at four times its normal level, a punch of seven hundred seventy-four thousand kilograms had not destroyed it.

One had to know that low-end home punch strength testers like his were mass-produced by Earthlings using materials harvested from slain monsters.

A home-use punch strength tester absolutely could not withstand a punch unleashed at his full power.

Only punch strength testers made with ancient civilization technology could accurately measure the punch strength data of a High War God.

Yet this low-end home punch strength tester before him had forcibly measured punch strength data comparable to that of a High War God.

"Something is definitely wrong!"

Yang Wu's expression turned grave. He then left his villa and hurried toward the Limit Hall.

Limit Hall, sixth-floor training hall.

Yang Wu came alone to the empty training hall. He walked over to the punch strength tester in the corner, turned it on, and waited for the display above it to light up.

He adjusted his breathing slightly, then his entire body became like a gorilla charging forward.

His fist carried the momentum of a forward collision, tracing an arc through the air before smashing heavily into the target.

"Boom~~"

The target shook violently and began to wobble precariously. The impact sounded low and muffled, while the entire punch strength tester seemed on the verge of falling apart.

The display above paused briefly before showing a line of numbers—

"193542 kg."

The punch strength tester before him was clearly about to fall apart, proving that the one in his villa indeed had a problem.

To be honest, his thoughts were not all that complicated right now. With his heart calm as still water, he would not casually entertain such unrealistic ideas.

Still, he had a vague feeling that the Limit Martial Hall's actions toward him seemed rather—

Like special treatment?

As for the possibility that the punch strength tester installed by the Limit Martial Hall was meant to monitor him and report his physical fitness test data at any time—

Heh, that was completely unnecessary!

If the Limit Martial Hall truly wanted his physical fitness data, there was no need to resort to such underhanded methods. Besides, he had never concealed his actual strength.

He refused to believe that the Limit Martial Hall could not access his browsing history on Limit Home, along with his records of purchasing manuals.

"Whatever. I'll just make a call and ask!"

Yang Wu's time was precious. How could he have so much time to keep guessing and overthinking? Sometimes, a single phone call could solve a problem, yet people insisted on doubting it for two or three days.

After returning to the villa, Yang Wu picked up the communications watch he had tossed onto the table, found Supervisor Zhuge Tao's number, and was about to call him.

"Bzz... bzz..."

The communications watch began vibrating first. Looking at its screen, he saw the caller ID—Zhuge Tao.

"Oh, what a coincidence!"

The moment Yang Wu pressed the answer button, Zhuge Tao's anxious voice came through.

"Yang Wu, have you reached the War God Level?"

In Mingyue Community of Yangzhou City, there had originally been only three Warrior Level martial artists, and not a single War God Level expert.

Naturally, the Limit Hall was not equipped with a more advanced punch strength tester.

However, the punch strength tester on the sixth floor of the Limit Hall was mainly used for Quasi-Warrior assessment tests, and its data was connected to the Limit Main Hall.

Furthermore, it could only barely measure strength at the Intermediate War God Level. Yang Wu's punch had exceeded its testing limit.

It had been destroyed on the spot!

As soon as Yang Wu successfully destroyed it, the Limit Main Hall received the report.

In the entire Yangzhou City Limit Hall, the first person Zhuge Tao thought of who could accomplish that was Yang Wu, so he hurriedly called him.

"Mm!"

Hearing Yang Wu's affirmative answer, the other side unexpectedly fell silent for a moment before speaking.

"Come here first. Make a trip to the Limit Main Hall. Inspector Liu wants to see you."

"When the time comes, he'll give you the answers to all your questions."

Jiangnan Base City, Limit Main Hall.

After hanging up, Yang Wu used his martial artist privileges. Without buying a ticket, he boarded a train directly and arrived in Jiangnan Base City's main urban district.

From far away, he could see the towering Deep Blue skyscraper—the Limit Martial Hall.

He soon reached the main entrance. After passing the identity check, Yang Wu entered the grounds of the Limit Main Hall.

This was Yang Wu's third visit here. He still remembered that Jiang Nian had brought him here the first time.

Then, he had happily accepted the first investment of his life.

"Yang Wu!"

Supervisor Zhuge Tao, dressed in a formal suit, had long been waiting in the first-floor lobby of the Limit Main Hall.

"Inspector Liu is on the thirty-first floor. I won't accompany you up."

Limit Main Hall, thirty-first floor.

This was a vast and empty training hall. The entire hall was silver-white, and a man in a white training uniform sat barefoot in the center with his legs crossed.

"Ding!"

The elevator doors opened. Yang Wu entered the vast training hall, and the first thing that caught his attention was the man in white training clothes...

He could sense an invisible energy fluctuation surrounding the man in white.

"You're here?"

The man in white stood up. Though this middle-aged man looked only around thirty, his true age was already over fifty.

He was the person truly standing at the peak of power and strength in the Jiangnan Base City Limit Martial Hall.

Inspector Liu!

"Yang Wu!"

"I truly didn't expect us to meet again so soon!"

Inspector Liu spoke with some emotion. A month ago, he had been in City 003 in the Wilderness Area, searching for Lord Level monsters to hone his spear technique.

Yet Grand Guild Master Hong had suddenly come to Jiangnan Base City.
