Before Yang Wu could carefully consider the reason for this, Chu Tian and the others had already walked over.

"Congratulations, Yang Wu." Even Chu Tian, who rarely complimented others, couldn't help but exclaim, "You truly live up to the name of a genius specially recruited by the Extreme Martial Arts Hall!"

"It is hard to imagine that Specialist Level spear arts, Micro-Level movement technique, and a two-fold force application technique are all gathered in a single Primary War General Level martial artist!"

For an ordinary Primary War General, possessing any one of these three would be enough to be called an elite; having all three combined makes one a true genius!

"Captain!" Seeing Chu Feng and the others approach, Yang Wu realized he had woken them up and quickly said, "I'm sorry for waking you all!"

"What does that matter?" Chu Tian smiled slightly. "If waking up once meant a brother could have an epiphany and greatly increase his strength, then I would wish to be woken up every single day!"

"By the way, Yang Wu, the Ultimate Spear Art you were practicing just now was the World Destroyer, right?"

As soon as Chu Tian said this, everyone in the Phantom Squad turned their eyes toward Yang Wu.

Yang Wu knew that while practicing his spear technique, he had also exposed his primary secret manual.

However, there was nothing shameful about this.

For one, he had purchased the manual himself, so he wasn't afraid of others finding out; for another, the World Destroyer manual contained a vast amount of content—attack methods, defense methods, movement techniques, and so on—so he wasn't worried about being specifically targeted if others knew about it.

"Captain, your eye for detail is truly amazing!" Yang Wu sighed. "I had only practiced the spear technique a few times, and everyone already noticed! That's right, I am practicing the World Destroyer spear technique."

After speaking, Yang Wu suddenly said with regret, "It's a pity that I only purchased the first volume. When I buy it again, I'll have to purchase the first volume all over again."

"So, have you mastered the force application technique from the first volume?" Chu Tian asked.

Yang Wu smiled helplessly, "I suppose so, I've barely managed a breakthrough!"

"Yang Wu!" Zheng Tao asked hurriedly, "I heard that once the first volume of the World Destroyer spear technique is mastered, one's force application can reach twice their own strength. Is that true?"

Although the Phantom Squad had already seen that Yang Wu's recent attack had reached the level of an Intermediate War General, they did not know his current physical fitness, so they couldn't accurately judge his force application.

"My force application has indeed reached two-fold!" Yang Wu nodded slowly.

"My god!" Zhou Zheng, standing to the side, couldn't help but exclaim, "That is comparable to the effect of fully mastering an A-Grade secret manual, and yet this is only the first volume of an Ultimate secret manual!"

"Haha!" Chu Tian laughed and said, "It is a good thing that Yang Wu could have an epiphany! With this breakthrough, Yang Wu's strength is probably catching up to Brother Zheng, Wang Zhi, and Xiao Qing. Our Phantom Squad's strength has improved quite a bit, and making money will be faster in the future!"

Having said this, Chu Tian paused, glanced at Zheng Tao and Wang Zhi, and then continued, "Everyone must keep working hard and strive for a great increase in strength!"

Chu Tian also had some selfish motives in his heart.

The closer he got to the peak of the War General level, the more he could feel how difficult it was to break through to the War God level.

Moreover, as a Spiritual Master, how could he be content with being just an ordinary Primary War God?

Therefore, he had long since made a plan: once he broke through to the War God level, he would purchase some 'Dragon Blood' to improve his physical fitness and become an Intermediate War God!

By then, with his own level of cultivation combined with the coordination of his Spiritual Force, he would not be considered weak even among Intermediate War Gods.

However, the price of Dragon Blood was as high as 160 billion Huaxia Currency; even at the half-price offered by the Extreme Martial Arts Hall, it would still cost 80 billion. Even if he asked Xiao Qing to help him purchase it, it would likely still require 50 or 60 billion!

The wealth Chu Tian had accumulated was still some distance away from that figure.

Therefore, he hoped that the strength of the Phantom Squad would increase even more. He had previously noticed that Zheng Tao had the intention of purchasing the Blue Demon's Tear, which was why he looked at Zheng Tao, attempting to put a little pressure on him.

As a member of the Phantom Squad, Zheng Tao had been through life and death in the Wilderness Area with Chu Tian for several years, so he naturally understood Chu Tian's meaning. Thus, he was also considering the possibility of taking the Blue Demon's Tear.

As for Wang Zhi, he already had his own plans, and his strength was still in a stage of rapid ascent, so he didn't need others to worry about him.

"Alright, since everyone is awake, Zhou Zheng, you and Yang Wu go get some rest. Xiao Qing and I will be responsible for the watch. In three hours, we will set off to return to the Base City!"

"Yes, Captain." Everyone responded one after another.

Consequently, except for Chu Tian and Lu Qing, who remained outside the room to keep watch, the four others, including Yang Wu, returned to their rooms to rest.

However, apart from the exhausted Zhou Zheng who fell asleep quickly, the other three had no sleepiness at all.

Before long, thinking that everyone else was resting, Zheng Tao carefully pushed the door open and walked out.

The pressure brought upon him by Yang Wu's epiphany was simply too great; he needed to go out and talk to Lu Qing about the price of the Blue Demon's Tear.

As for Wang Zhi, he had been sitting with his eyes closed in deep thought. He appeared very calm, but his quietly clenched fists betrayed his thoughts.

"I must become a High-Level War General as soon as possible, or even a powerful War God! Only then can I, Wang Xingzhi, take back everything that should have been mine!"

Clearly, Wang Zhi had been stimulated by Yang Wu's epiphany.

As for Yang Wu, he was currently thinking about the reason he was able to comprehend the first volume of the World Destroyer so quickly.

Although Yang Wu didn't think his comprehension was poor, he knew that with his level of talent, it would have been impossible to comprehend the first volume of the World Destroyer in less than two months.

With Luo Feng's terrifying talent, how long did it take him to reach two-fold force application? Three months or four months?

"Could it be because of my state of mind?" Yang Wu suddenly had a realization.

"I remember in the original story that Hong was able to become a disciple of the Founder of the Giant Axe because of his powerful state of mind. So, it is not impossible that when he created the secret manual, he integrated a trace of his own Heart Cultivation realm into it!"

"And since I, by some stroke of luck, reached the first realm of Heart Cultivation, it is no wonder that I could quickly master the first volume of the World Destroyer!"

Yang Wu found a barely plausible reason for himself and stopped dwelling on the epiphany.

Because the time had now reached the early morning of September 1st.

The number of simulations on the Time Simulator in his mind had changed from 0 back to 1.

"I wonder how much my strength will improve after this simulation. I hope my strength can catch up to the Captain!"

Yang Wu looked forward to it.
