Lin Ye was stunned by Lei Long's words.
"Is that allowed? Don't I need to reach the third level first?"
Lei Long grinned, "Geniuses naturally get genius treatment."
Having said that, he looked at Yan Yi, "Ah, of course, I didn't mean that you and Wei Qian aren't geniuses."
"It's just that you're a little bit behind classmate Lin."
Yan Yi smiled gently, "Of course, Senior Brother Lin's talent is plain for all to see."
Wei Qian, who had just finished training and was walking over to say hello, looked speechless. Why are you just like the head coach?
There's really no need to use me as a control group for this kind of thing.
Lei Long looked at Lin Ye, "What do you think? Do you want to apply?"
"After becoming an official disciple, you'll be rewarded with a Whale Blood Pill, which is a great help for practicing the Soul Whale Fist."
"However, if you apply, you'll have to spar with me first to prove your strength is up to par."
Upon hearing the words "Whale Blood Pill," Lin Ye raised an eyebrow.
He had heard from senior students before that this was a Secret Potion brewed from the blood of a whale species known as the Black Horn Whale, supplemented with a secret recipe.
It had the effect of improving the physical aptitude of Soul Whale Fist practitioners and was extremely precious.
I wonder if the teacher has any?
Monument.
He chanted in his heart, and the black Monument appeared in his mind.
Since the last medicinal bath, he had been able to summon the Monument without using the mark on the back of his hand.
[Soul Whale Fist "Level 2" (95/200)]
After a week of hard training, the experience points for the Soul Whale Fist had taken another step toward the 100-point mark.
As long as the experience points exceeded one hundred, he could add points at any time to break through directly to the third level of the Soul Whale Fist.
But there was no rush; he should see what the assessment entailed first.
If it was appropriate, he could take the opportunity to add points then.
As a top-tier genius, wasn't it perfectly reasonable to have a breakthrough in the heat of the moment?
Even if there was no chance to add points, he could do so when using the Whale Blood Pill after passing the assessment.
As a top-tier genius, it was also normal to have a higher absorption efficiency for Secret Potions, right?
He wasn't worried about the assessment; aside from the difference in physical fitness, there wasn't much of a gap in combat experience between the second and third levels.
Since the punching power of someone just entering the third level was usually three hundred kilograms, it meant his current strength was more than enough.
"Have you considered it?" Lei Long asked.
Lin Ye lifted his eyes slightly, "Where is the test?"
A smile appeared on Lei Long's face; he really hadn't misjudged the person!
"Right here."
It wasn't even eight o'clock yet, and there was no one else besides the four of them; even the other two coaches hadn't started their shifts.
Wei Qian, who had just walked over, curled his lip. Should've known better than to come over.
While complaining in his mind, his body was very honest as he moved far away to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Once Yan Yi and Wei Qian retreated to the edge of the hall, Lin Ye and Lei Long stood apart, about five meters away from each other.
Lei Long gently took off his gold-rimmed glasses, his temperament suddenly becoming wild, and even his sturdy body took on a sense of agility.
Lin Ye sensed the change, his gaze turning sharp as he stepped into a lunge.
"Ready?" Lei Long raised an eyebrow with a hint of a smile.
"Please," Lin Ye replied, setting his stance.
The next moment, Lei Long grinned, stomped his foot, and lunged forward like a cannonball.
His right fist pressed down, carrying a gust of wind.
Without hesitation, Lin Ye slammed his body forward, his elbow aiming for Lei Long's heart.
When facing an attack, dodging is inferior to blocking, and blocking is inferior to counterattacking.
After Lin Fei's high-level special training, combined with the hard-won memories of his cultivation during the second-level point allocation.
Now, his use of the Soul Whale Fist had become something instinctive.
In an instant, a flash of surprise appeared in the depths of Lei Long's eyes.
He stomped his foot hard, abruptly stopping his momentum, and threw a left hook from bottom to top toward Lin Ye's chin.
"Bang!"
The shadow of the fist vanished in a flash, and Lin Ye stumbled back a few steps, a tearing pain radiating from the skin near his collarbone.
Just a moment ago, if he hadn't twisted his shoulder to take that punch head-on, the fight would have already been over.
Lei Long looked at Lin Ye with approval, "Not bad, you've actually already passed at this point."
The gap between the fourth level and the third level is immense, not to mention that he is already at the peak of the fourth level and could break through to the fifth level at any moment.
At the edge of the hall, Wei Qian was completely bewildered; the two of them had been fighting so fast that he hadn't even seen what was going on.
However, it looked like although Brother Lin was at a disadvantage, it seemed... he wasn't entirely unable to go toe-to-toe with Coach Lei?
This is fucking ridiculous.
Those who know would say you only started practicing martial arts this month, but those who don't would think some gold-medal coach came here to challenge the gym!
Yan Yi's eyes were also filled with shock; she could tell that Lei Long hadn't used his full strength yet.
Because the strength Lei Long was currently displaying was at most on par with her father's.
But the problem is, her father is already a veteran third-level expert.
For Lei Long to test Senior Brother Lin with this level of strength is already exceeding the standard.
"Do you want to continue?" Lei Long tilted his head and looked at Lin Ye.
Lin Ye rubbed his collarbone and grinned, his temperament becoming somewhat similar to Lei Long's.
"Of course."
Thud! Thud!
With two loud explosions, Lei Long stomped his feet, one in front and one behind, and charged forward ferociously, like a high wall crushing everything in its path.
"Whoosh--!"
He lifted his right leg and launched a direct kick at Lin Ye, the wind from the strike fierce and savage.
Arrow Step--Kill!
Feeling the terrifying force, Lin Ye dodged to the side and pressed his palm forward, striking toward Lei Long's face.
Lei Long let out a loud laugh, stomped his left foot hard, and his body suddenly spun as his left fist smashed down.
Lin Ye retreated half a step, barely dodging the punch.
"Boom!"
Lei Long's fist smashed into the Iron Wood floor, which was as hard as steel, leaving a shallow fist print.
Wei Qian, at the edge of the hall, couldn't help but gulp; you guys call this just "sparring"?
This floor is harder than iron!
About ten minutes later, with the arrival of a student, Lei Long and Lin Ye stopped their sparring.
Lin Ye gasped for air, his lungs burning as if every breath he took was like drinking boiling water.
Yan Yi walked up and handed him a pink towel.
Opposite him, Lei Long lightly wiped the sweat from his forehead, only slightly out of breath.
To him, the fight just now could at most be considered a warm-up.
Putting on his gold-rimmed glasses, his temperament became elegant once again.
"I'll go ahead and submit the application. The normal process takes about a week; the main branch needs to review your information."
"After that, you can go to the main branch to sign the contract and then prepare for the assessment."
Lin Ye wiped his sweat and raised an eyebrow, "Sign the contract, then take the assessment?"
Lei Long nodded, "That's right. Our assessments have a casualty rate, so once the contract is signed, you're covered by insurance."
"If you only suffer injuries or disabilities, all subsequent expenses will be covered by the martial arts gym."
"Official disciples who cannot fully recover after being disabled are basically employed in companies under the main branch, which is considered a form of retirement."
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, not expecting the martial arts gym to have such good benefits.
But thinking about it carefully, it made sense; a martial arts gym that can have ties to the Police Department is almost equivalent to an alternative violent organization.
With such conditions, it would be no difficulty at all to run a few companies to support a group of people.
Just as he was thinking this, a patch of black text appeared before his eyes.
