Inspector

"How could this be?!" Qin Wei found it impossible to accept. If Chen Yuan was an Intermediate War General, then all her behavior just now had been nothing more than a clownish performance.

Her intense pride left Qin Wei feeling suffocated, and she even regretted it. How could she have done something so childish?

"Didn't you say he couldn't even beat an Iron-Haired Wild Boar?" Qin Wei suddenly turned her head and glared viciously at Yang Fan, her tone full of accusation, as though she had been deceived by him all along.

"I-I..." Yang Fan was completely dumbfounded. He even wondered whether something was wrong with his memory. Was the Chen Yuan who had just produced the punch strength of an Intermediate War General really the same timid and submissive Chen Yuan he remembered?

When Yang Fan kept stammering without an answer, Qin Wei felt even more deceived. She snorted coldly, turned, and left.

After Qin Wei left, Yang Fan had no reason to stay either. He looked at Chen Yuan, his face filled with complicated emotions. He seemed to want to say something, but ultimately said nothing and silently turned to leave the dojo.

Qin Wei and Yang Fan's departure did not draw anyone's attention. Wang Tai's entire focus was on Chen Yuan.

Seeing that Chen Yuan's strength truly matched the assessed combat record, Wang Tai was overjoyed. This was practically free credit.

Chen Yuan said, "Should we test my speed and neural response next?"

Wang Tai naturally had no objections and nodded repeatedly. "All right."

The results came out very quickly.

Speed: 163 meters per second!

Neural response result: perfect score for Intermediate War General, excellent for Advanced War General.

Chen Yuan did not make his performance overly outrageous. His current results were already enough for Wang Tai to report upward.

Wang Tai was extremely satisfied with Chen Yuan's test results, his face covered in smiles. "Excellent! Very good!"

"I'll report this to the Jiangnan General Dojo immediately. You may need to come with me later to demonstrate your strength." Wang Tai smiled broadly at Chen Yuan. "If you pass the test, great benefits will be waiting for you."

"Can I enter the Elite Training Camp?" Chen Yuan asked bluntly.

So he really was here for the Elite Training Camp. Wang Tai sighed inwardly, then answered honestly, "I can't guarantee it."

"Because the higher-ups at headquarters may not see things the same way we do. A nineteen-year-old Intermediate War General is rare, but not unheard of." Wang Tai explained, "Strength is only one aspect. Headquarters will also examine your actual combat ability, your cultivation of secret manuals, and so on."

Wang Tai did not say it outright, but Chen Yuan knew that according to his registration at Limit Home, he had cultivated only one C-rank secret manual. Its level was too low.

"Then when you make your report, Chief Instructor, mention one more thing," Chen Yuan said. "Say that my Force Exertion Level is greater than double."

"What?!" Wang Tai's eyes widened. "Double force exertion? Is that for real?!"

Chen Yuan knew that actions spoke louder than words, so he walked to the punch strength tester again, took a deep breath, and threw a punch.

This time, he used the Double-Force Technique.

Boom!

The punch target shook violently, and the tester's screen quickly displayed the result.

35584KG!

Wang Tai rushed to the tester's screen. When he saw the number displayed there, he immediately sucked in a sharp breath.

"It's actually real!" Wang Tai looked at Chen Yuan in shock, finding it hard to imagine that this young man's strength was already close to his own.

As the Pavilion Master of the Jinling Branch Dojo, Wang Tai naturally possessed the strength of an Advanced War General. However, his force exertion was quite ordinary, only 1.3 times, and his ultimate strength was not much higher than Chen Yuan's.

But Wang Tai quickly came to his senses. Right in front of Chen Yuan, he took out his phone, typed a message, and hit send.

Less than thirty seconds later, a call came from the Jiangnan General Dojo.

"This is Wang Tai."

"Yes."

"The information is all correct."

"All right, I'll bring him over then."

"Don't worry, Supervisor. When have I ever lied to you? I saw it all with my own eyes."

"Got it."

After hanging up, Wang Tai beamed. "Chen Yuan, come with me to Jiangnan City tomorrow morning. I've spoken with the Supervisor. The Chairman will personally come see you tomorrow, so make sure you perform well."

"If you do well, your qualification to enter the Elite Training Camp will be secure."

Chen Yuan nodded after hearing that.

Early the next morning, Chen Yuan arrived at the dojo on time and took the earliest train with Wang Tai toward the main urban district of Jiangnan Base City.

When Chen Yuan and Wang Tai arrived at the Limit Dojo's general headquarters, they found quite a few people already standing outside the entrance.

When Wang Tai saw those people, he froze. He rubbed his eyes, then hurriedly led Chen Yuan over at a jog and respectfully said to the person at the front, "Greetings, Chairman. Greetings, Supervisor Zhuge."

Standing in the center of the crowd was Zhou Zhengyong, Chairman of the Jiangnan City Limit Dojo's general headquarters.

The origins of Supervisor Zhuge, standing beside Zhou Zhengyong, were not insignificant either. He was Zhuge Tao, the man who had once invested in Earth Lord Luo Feng.

Zhou Zhengyong nodded at Wang Tai without speaking. Zhuge Tao beside him smiled faintly and said, "You arrived just in time. Wait with us. A very important person will be arriving soon."

Then Zhuge Tao turned his gaze toward Chen Yuan, smiled, and nodded at him. "Not bad, young man. Make sure you perform well in front of the important person later."

"An important person?" Wang Tai leaned closer to Zhuge Tao and asked with a broad smile, "Supervisor, you didn't mention this yesterday. I wasn't prepared at all."

"How could I possibly be certain about the affairs of an important person?" Zhuge Tao quietly scolded with a laugh, then put away his smile and said seriously, "After receiving your report yesterday, I immediately passed it on to the Chairman, and the Chairman reported it to the Inspector."

"Unexpectedly, Inspector Wei took an interest in this matter and decided to personally meet the young man you reported."

"Judging by the time, the Inspector should be arriving soon. Remember not to act glib later. Show proper respect toward the Inspector." Zhuge Tao quietly reminded Wang Tai.

Wang Tai nodded, put away his smile, returned to Chen Yuan's side, and quietly told him what he had just learned.

Inspector Wei... was there such a person in the original story? Chen Yuan thought about it but had no impression. He only remembered that Luo Feng had once served as an Inspector.

An Inspector... within the Limit Dojo, that position was equivalent to a regional lord, an absolute authority with the power to directly dismiss Supervisors.

Twenty years ago, the requirement to become an Inspector had been to reach the peak War God level. Of course, that was no longer the case.

After all, even Chairman Zhou Zhengyong had become Planetary Level. An Inspector's strength could only be greater than Zhou Zhengyong's.

However, Chen Yuan was not too worried. Jiangnan Base City was Luo Feng's hometown, and no Inspector would dare abuse his authority here.

Thus, everyone continued waiting. About half an hour later, a dark-blue saucer-shaped fighter jet appeared on the horizon and rapidly flew toward them, soon stopping above the crowd.

The hatch opened, and a figure stepped out of the fighter jet, slowly descending before everyone.

Someone capable of piloting a Smart Fighter Jet must be the Inspector. This thought flashed through Chen Yuan's mind as he looked toward the man.

Inspector Wei appeared fairly young, around thirty years old. He wore a tracksuit and possessed a simple, easygoing demeanor.

If he had not flown down from the Smart Fighter Jet, Chen Yuan never would have imagined from his appearance alone that he was an Inspector. He had none of the imposing air of someone long accustomed to high office. With that plain temperament, he seemed more like a college student who had just entered society.

Inspector Wei walked before the group and waved with a somewhat bashful smile. "Ah, why are so many people here to welcome me? Didn't I say on the phone that there was no need to go through so much trouble?"

Chen Yuan felt that his smile was rather awkward, as though he was deeply unaccustomed to such situations. His doubts grew stronger. Was this really an Inspector?

"Inspector Wei, you must be joking. You personally came to the Jiangnan Limit Hall. If no one came to receive you, wouldn't that make us seem ignorant of proper etiquette?" Chairman Zhou Zhengyong said respectfully, his face full of smiles.

"Ah, Chairman Zhou, you're too courteous. You're making me embarrassed instead." Inspector Wei hurriedly waved again. Chen Yuan had sharp eyes and noticed that the man had actually blushed a little.

Perhaps noticing Chen Yuan's gaze, Inspector Wei turned his head and looked at him. His eyes immediately lit up. He quickly walked over to Chen Yuan, examined him carefully, and praised him with clicks of his tongue. "You're Chen Yuan, right? As expected of the genius recommended by Chairman Zhou. This temperament... it really resembles A-Feng's somewhat."

"No, that's not right. A-Feng's temperament is madness, while yours is Static Path." Inspector Wei shook his head again as he spoke, seeming somewhat puzzled. "Strange. Why do I feel that you resemble A-Feng so much?"

"A-Feng? Could he mean Luo Feng? Since his surname is Wei..." A name surfaced in Chen Yuan's mind. He looked at Inspector Wei and hesitantly asked, "Inspector Wei, are you... Wei Wen?"
