The cabin door opened.
Jiang Li focused his gaze and saw three people jump down one after another. Among them was one of the managers of the Limit Martial Arts Hall's Jiangnan Main Hall, Zhuge Tao.
"President, Manager Zhuge!"
"Greetings to the President and Manager Zhuge!"
"..."
Many of the martial artists recognized them and called out respectfully.
At the same time, they were extremely puzzled. The president and manager of the Limit Martial Arts Hall in Jiangnan Base City were acting like followers, trailing behind a middle-aged man.
Who was this person?

Chapter 30: Jiang Li's Strongest Punch
"Oh? Luo Feng, Gao Feng, you're both here too!"
Zhuge Tao and his two companions walked straight toward the Fire Hammer Squad. As they approached, Zhuge Tao smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. This is a 'Special Envoy' from our Limit Martial Arts Hall's global headquarters, War God Yang Hui!"
Hearing Zhuge Tao's introduction, the martial artists present were all taken aback.
"Greetings to Special Envoy Yang, President Zhou, and Manager Zhuge!"
The members of the Fire Hammer Squad called out respectfully.
"Mm."
War God Yang Hui merely nodded, not saying much more to the Fire Hammer Squad members.
His gaze swept over the crowd and quickly landed on Jiang Li alone. "Jiang Li?"
"I am Jiang Li."
Jiang Li nodded.
"Jiang Li, Special Envoy Yang Hui came all the way from the Jiangnan Guild Hall just for your matter!"
Manager Zhuge said with a smile. "You should thank Special Envoy Yang Hui properly."
"No need to thank me!"
"Without strength, no one can fight for anything."
Yang Hui waved his hand and said, "Let's talk on the fighter."
"Jiang Li, let's go!"
Zhuge Tao urged him on and then instructed Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, you need to work hard too!"
"Yes, Manager!"
Luo Feng nodded heavily. The Fire Hammer Squad members could only watch as Jiang Li boarded the Military Region Fighter.
"Holy crap! Did I see that right? That Special Envoy came specifically for one martial artist?"
"Told you not to watch so many cheap flicks, now you don't even trust your own eyes?"
"Isn't that Gao Feng from the Fire Hammer Squad?"
"That's him, I recognize his hammer!"
"They had a conflict with the Fang Squad earlier, didn't they?"
"The Fang Squad is finished!"
"..."
Whoosh
The Azure Fighter turned into a streak of light, quickly flying to the base city's Limit Guild Hall before slowly descending.
"Jiang Li, we're at the guild hall. Get ready to disembark."
Zhuge Tao said with a smile.
"Mm."
The cabin door opened automatically, and Jiang Li followed Yang Hui and the others as they jumped off the Azure Fighter.
Afterward, Jiang Li followed them up to the top floor.
This was a spacious and enormous training hall. The entire training hall was constructed from mixed metal, presenting a silvery-white appearance.
"Jiang Li, our Limit Martial Arts Hall's global headquarters has two major training camps: the Basic Training Camp and the Elite Training Camp. Do you know about them?"
Entering the training hall, Yang Hui got straight to the point.
"I've heard of them."
Jiang Li nodded slightly.
"Mm. The Basic Training Camp takes in talented martial artists from around the world and gives them the best training. Generally speaking, that means a special-grade training contract."
Yang Hui looked at Jiang Li and explained, "As for the Elite Training Camp, it's the world's number one training camp. Only the best of the best, monstrous-level trainees, are qualified to take the assessment!"
"Their teachers are at least War God-level experts, and there are even those who surpass the War God realm!"
"Even the world's number one, our chief instructor 'Hong', and the world's number two, the chief instructor of Thunderbolt Martial Arts Hall 'Thunder God', will be invited to guide the trainees!"
"You could say there's no better faculty in the world than the Elite Training Camp!"
"That's not all!"
The branch president Zhou Zhengyong added, "Besides the faculty, Elite Training Camp trainees also get access to the most advanced equipment in the world today—some of it is treasure unearthed from ancient civilization ruins!"
"Jiang Li!"
Zhuge Tao also stared at Jiang Li, barely containing his excitement as he said, "You could put it this way: anyone who enters the Elite Training Camp, unless they're eliminated or die, will become a War God upon successful graduation!"
Jiang Li blinked.
"Every single slot in the Elite Training Camp is priceless!"
Zhuge Tao coaxed, "Even super-conglomerate families spending hundreds of billions can hardly buy a single slot..."
"So do you understand how precious this assessment slot is?"
"Mm."
Jiang Li nodded.
Without saying much more, the fact that a slot couldn't be bought even for hundreds of billions was enough to prove the Elite Training Camp's value.
After all, he really wasn't wealthy right now.
"However, your situation is rather special!"
Once Zhuge Tao finished elaborating on the Elite Training Camp's preciousness, Yang Hui shifted the topic: "The recruitment quota for Hanxia Kingdom next year was already set. This assessment slot of yours is a special case, opened as an exception, so you'll need to undergo a B-Level Trial!"
"The B-Level Trial is extremely difficult. Given your current situation, there's basically no chance of passing it!"
"But you still have half a year to improve before the March recruitment next year."
Jiang Li didn't mind and simply nodded.
"Jiang Li, don't be too nervous. With your current situation, getting into the Basic Training Camp is no problem."
Seeing Jiang Li silent, Zhuge Tao thought he was worried about the consequences of failing the assessment.
"Zhuge, this is exactly why you've never been able to break through to War God!"
Yang Hui shot Zhuge Tao a glance and said seriously, "Don't always settle for second best!"
"A martial artist's cultivation is like rowing upstream—if you don't advance, you fall back!"
"It's too late for me to realize that now."
Zhuge Tao didn't mind and chuckled, "But Jiang Li definitely won't..."
"After all, how many new martial artists in the world would buy both Annihilation and Ninefold Thunder Blade at the same time?"
That was several hundred million Hanxia Currency—what ordinary martial artist could afford that?
"Jiang Li, go throw a couple of punches for me to see!"
Yang Hui pointed at the Punch Force Testing Machine in the corner of the training hall and said, "Once with brute force, once with the technique you're best at!"
It was simple to see if Jiang Li had grasped Ninefold Thunder Blade.
Both Yang Hui and Zhou Zhengyong were War Gods. With their eyesight, they could easily tell how many layers of inner force Jiang Li could burst out instantly.
"Maximum strength?"
Jiang Li glanced at the Punch Force Testing Machine leaning against the composite metal wall and asked redundantly.
"Mm!"
"Alright!"
Jiang Li nodded.
Since it involved the Elite Training Camp slot, he didn't plan to hold back. This was a good chance to test his actual attack power.
"Is Jiang Li worried about something?"
Zhuge Tao watched Jiang Li walk up to the Punch Force Testing Machine and furrowed his brow slightly. "Could we have guessed wrong? Did he not grasp the Ninefold Thunder Blade?"
"Being able to get started on the chief instructor's Annihilation in such a short time—he's qualified for a B-Level assessment slot."
Yang Hui watched Jiang Li clench his fist and strike, nodding slightly.
Boom!
A single punch landed. The Punch Force Testing Machine trembled, and the display screen immediately showed '18778KG'.
"18.7 tons. That's an increase from the value Wu Tong reported last time."
Zhuge Tao rubbed his chin and smiled, "I have to say, his progress is really fast."
"No wind-up, no inner force—that's pure physical fitness!"
Zhou Zhengyong praised with a smile, "If he were the same age as Luo Feng..."
