Qinglin Laboratory.
Inside a special gravity chamber.
Ma Hong was practicing a set of fist techniques.
It was the very same Taiji technique that Qin Lin had discovered could channel the energy of the Fruit of the Tree of Power after he consumed the third fruit.
This technique had been introduced back in the qigong era, but, like the other techniques, it had long since been deemed impossible to cultivate. So you could imagine how astonished Mr. Lu had been.

Unfortunately, the energy in Qin Lin's body had been produced by consuming the third Fruit of the Tree of Power. Ordinary people simply didn't have that kind of energy.
As a result, not one of the participants in the experiment had succeeded. Only Ma Hong had managed to cultivate a tiny trace of energy.
That's right, Ma Hong had proven that the Taiji technique was still viable.
This might have been because Ma Hong had broken through the limits of the human body. Researchers had been assigned to observe him and monitor his physical condition.
They now had a rough hypothesis: martial arts training used to require stance work and building a foundation. Perhaps that foundation was breaking through the limits of the human body, after which one could begin cultivating internal energy.
Unfortunately, breaking through the limits of the human body wasn't easy.
After all, none of the people involved in the experiment had managed it, even with the help of the enhanced-body serum.
So Ma Hong was now the strongest of the soldiers who had taken the enhanced-body serum.
Just as Ma Hong finished a set of punches, he received a call. It was from Mr. Lu.
He immediately answered, and Mr. Lu said, "Ma Hong, I have a mission for
