Seeing these three rewards, Yang Wu finally understood the true power of his cheat.

As long as he chose one of these rewards, he would immediately possess strength far surpassing his current level.

Yang Wu did not hesitate and immediately chose option one.

For him right now, an improvement in physical fitness was the most important thing.

Once his realm improved, he could achieve better results in the upcoming actual combat assessment, which would allow him to secure better treatment when joining other factions.

The next moment, Yang Wu suddenly felt a powerful, mysterious force emerge within his body, instantly merging into every part of him. With the help of this mysterious force, every cell in Yang Wu's body underwent rapid transformation, and his physical fitness soared.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Wu had already become an Advanced Warrior-level martial artist!

Is that it? It's done?

Yang Wu swung his fist hard, feeling the incredible power contained within his body, and felt a surge of excitement.

Advanced Warrior-level martial artist, I've made it!

At this moment, Yang Wu completely abandoned all his previous thoughts.

Rely on someone else?

I am the one to be relied upon!

With this cheat, Yang Wu would also go and experience the wonders of this endless universe!

The key is to figure out the activation conditions for this simulator!

This was the first question that came to Yang Wu's mind after he calmed down.

Only by continuously simulating could he continue to break through and grow stronger!

Thinking of this, Yang Wu began to carefully observe the system panel before him, hoping to find the conditions for simulation.

However, other than the simulation count changing to 0, the simulator panel showed no other changes.

What exactly were the activation conditions for the simulator?

Yang Wu pondered silently in his heart.

Time Simulator!

Could the activation condition be time? Yang Wu suddenly realized.

But, how long of an interval was needed to activate it again?

One month!

As soon as the thought appeared in Yang Wu's mind, he received an answer from the void.

One month was neither too long nor too short.

For now, I can only wait patiently! Yang Wu thought to himself.

Just then, Yang Wu's communication watch suddenly rang.

Picking up the communicator and glancing at the caller information, a complex expression appeared on Yang Wu's face.

After a moment of hesitation, Yang Wu answered the call, "Brother Wang!"

The caller was none other than Wang Zijin, the owner of the bar where Yang Wu worked.

"Ah Wu!" Wang Zijin laughed happily on the other end of the line and said, "I heard you passed the prospective martial artist assessment, congratulations. I've already booked a table of fine food at the HR Alliance Mall to celebrate for you, you must give me this face!"

On the phone, Wang Zijin was even more enthusiastic than before.

Because martial artists and ordinary people belonged to completely different social classes! Since Yang Wu had passed the prospective martial artist assessment, he had already stepped one foot into the upper class.

The Wang Family's influence is truly immense! After listening to Wang Zijin, Yang Wu thought to himself.

One had to know that Yang Wu had only just passed the assessment and hadn't even received his prospective martial artist certificate yet, nor had the certificate information been recorded in his citizen identity profile.

Yet, Wang Zijin, merely a collateral descendant of the Wang Family, had learned of the news of Yang Wu passing the assessment so quickly.

"Ah Wu?" Not getting a response, Wang Zijin called out with some confusion.

Yang Wu finally snapped back to reality, "The HR Alliance Mall, right? No problem! Brother Wang, wait a moment, I'll be there soon!"

After a brief moment of thought, Yang Wu decided to attend the banquet.

Firstly, although Yang Wu no longer had any intention of joining the Wang Family, Wang Zijin had always treated him well;

Secondly, Yang Wu was also curious about what kind of conditions Wang Zijin could offer him.

"Good, then I'll be here waiting for you to arrive, Ah Wu!" Wang Zijin said politely on the phone.

Hanging up the phone, Yang Wu informed his family and immediately rushed to the HR Alliance Mall for the appointment.

In the main urban area of Jiangnan Base City, there stood an 88-story skyscraper. On the walls of this skyscraper were the dazzling letters 'HR'. Around the first floor of the skyscraper, there was a beautiful plaza and the largest fountain in all of Jiangnan Base City. Surrounding the plaza, over a thousand fully armed soldiers were patrolling, forbidding any outsiders from stepping inside.

Passersby walking nearby would look at this skyscraper with curiosity and envy.

The vast majority of ordinary people in the entire Jiangnan Base City had never stepped inside it in their entire lives!

"Beep!"

An electronic sound rang out.

Immediately, the soldiers standing guard and patrolling moved aside as a military off-road vehicle with the "hr" logo printed on its body drove over and stopped at the entrance of the skyscraper's lobby.

Clatter!

The driver's side door opened, and a middle-aged man with short hair quickly stepped out.

The middle-aged man walked to the rear door, opened it, and respectfully invited a young man with a hideous scar on his face to step out of the vehicle.

"Mr. Yang Wu, we have arrived at the HR Alliance Mall. The boss is waiting for you inside!" the middle-aged man said respectfully.

"Many thanks!"

Yang Wu stepped off the off-road vehicle and thanked the middle-aged man.

If Wang Zijin hadn't sent someone to pick him up, it would not have been easy for Yang Wu, who had not yet received his prospective martial artist certificate, to enter this HR Alliance Mall.

"Sir, please come in." The doorman at the entrance of the skyscraper's lobby bowed respectfully.

"A-Wu, over here!"

As soon as Yang Wu walked into the building, he heard Wang Zijin's voice.

Yang Wu turned his head and saw Wang Zijin walking toward him, accompanied by a tall, sturdy man and an elderly man with a missing arm.

"Brother Wang!" Yang Wu greeted him with a smile.

"A-Wu, you're finally here. How was it? Was the journey smooth?" Wang Zijin spoke very courteously. "Let's go, let's go eat first!"

The group soon arrived at a private room and sat down on the sofa.

"A-Wu, let me introduce you. These two are martial artists from my Wang Family. This is Xu Feiyue, my bodyguard, whom you have met before. And this one..."

Wang Zijin, who had been sitting on the sofa, stood up and pointed to the elderly man with the missing arm, introducing him solemnly: "This is the famous 'One-Armed Spear Demon', Uncle Liu Dehui. Uncle Liu is a close friend of my father and is a War General level powerhouse!"

"I have long heard of the prestige of the senior 'One-Armed Spear Demon', Uncle Liu, back when I was still an intermediate student. I just didn't expect that you and Uncle Wang were such close friends!" Yang Wu cupped his fists respectfully toward the elderly man with the missing arm and said.
