General Wang

He knew Lu Chengchuan wasn't an Esper, but what was this warm current that could alleviate pain?

"Inner Energy."

Lu Chengchuan said slowly, releasing his palm when he saw the man was alright, the Inner Energy returning to its dantian.

As the warm current disappeared, Chang Hao's body recovered, but the doubt in his heart didn't diminish. Inner Energy... this was the legendary Inner Energy. Could someone really cultivate such a thing?

He was a little disbelieving, but seeing was believing. The other party could easily defeat him, and the warm current just now wasn't an illusion. With all these things combined, Chang Hao convinced himself.

Others also heard what Lu Chengchuan said, knowing he had cultivated Inner Energy. Most people didn't know how important cultivating Inner Energy was to a martial artist. They only saw Chang Hao being defeated, understanding that Lu Chengchuan's strength was very high.

Being able to defeat Chang Hao in one move, Zhang Chengyan confirmed that what Zhou Yaning said before was true. This person was really powerful.

"You quickly go see a doctor, don't leave any internal injuries."

Zhang Chengyan was afraid that Chang Hao had suffered internal injuries, so he quickly asked someone to see a doctor, letting the doctor examine him carefully. Chang Hao was his capable subordinate, and he didn't want anything to happen to him.

At this time, many people gathered around. The lightning on their side was crackling, making it difficult not to attract attention.

Seeing the two sparring, the onlookers watched with interest. When the competition ended, a middle-aged man in military uniform walked up to Zhang Chengyan.

"Director Zhang, what's going on?"

"Oh, it's Lao Wang. Just a little sparring, nothing serious, it's already over." Zhang Chengyan saw the person coming and pulled him aside to explain.

This was the Armed Forces Department, their territory. The Investigation Bureau wasn't an unreasonable organization either. When the person in charge came to ask, he had to give a reasonable explanation.

"Sparring, two Espers sparring, you guys are doing this?" Wang Xinghan didn't understand what they meant.

While they were talking, Lu Chengchuan looked at the military officer surnamed Wang. The person had a star on their shoulder, it was a Rear Admiral, in charge of a legion of tens of thousands of people.

"We just got excited and sparred a bit, did we disturb you?"

"Not at all, but you've piqued my interest. How about letting this young man compete with my soldiers? Ever since they became Espers, those brats have been restless."

Wang Xinghan became interested. He also wanted to see what his Esper soldiers were capable of.

"This isn't very good, he's not a member of our Investigation Bureau, I can't persuade him." Zhang Chengyan had to tell him some truth.

He could agree, but he was afraid that Lu Chengchuan wouldn't be willing. He would be the one embarrassed then.

"Bringing people here who aren't from your department, Director Zhang, that's against the rules."

"Lao Wang, don't give me that. I didn't bring him to the confidential building, it's useless to tell me this." Zhang Chengyan wasn't afraid of this, he wouldn't worry about such things if he dared to say it.

Moreover, he wasn't worried that Wang Xinghan would report him. This kind of trivial matter wasn't necessary.

"Oh, go ask him with me, maybe he's willing." Wang Xinghan still didn't give up, insisting on finding out the answer.

"You've rented office space here for so long, you should pay some rent."

The words the two said sounded like old men and women haggling in the market, without the slightest appearance of being in high positions.

Zhang Chengyan was very helpless. The two belonged to different departments. Although his power was great, it wasn't good to interfere in military affairs. Especially since Wang Xinghan was a Rear Admiral, he couldn't force him to give orders.

Helpless, he had to agree: "Alright, I'll go ask him with you, is that okay?"

"Haha, thank you Director Zhang, I thank you very much, I'll treat you to dinner later." Wang Xinghan laughed a few times, hurrying back.

Zhang Chengyan slowly went back. Wang Xinghan was anxious seeing him like this, but he couldn't say anything.

Soon, the two walked up to Lu Chengchuan. Before Zhang Chengyan could speak, Wang Xinghan preemptively said: "Young man, do you want to compete with my soldiers!"

As a soldier, even as the head of an army, Wang Xinghan still liked to speak directly most of the time, without any detours.

Useful was useful, could not be done was could not be done, he was not used to dividing a sentence into ten sentences.

"Sorry, the competition is over." Lu Chengchuan refused.

He didn't care if the other party was a general or not. He wasn't a circus clown, performing whenever someone asked. At least state a price first, see if it's appropriate before talking.

Wang Xinghan didn't expect the other party to be such a straightforward person, refusing directly without asking anything.

"You kid, do you know who I am, do you know what place this is."

"This is the Armed Forces Department, as for you, sorry, forgive my ignorance, you are?"

Lu Chengchuan's words were a little sarcastic, Wang Xinghan laughed, angered into laughter.

"Hey, you, entering the training ground without permission, it's in accordance with the regulations for me to arrest you now."

"Lao Wang, don't scare people, this one came out of a pile of Monsters, you can't scare him." Zhang Chengyan stepped forward to mediate.

He brought the person, what would he do if he was really arrested, and would Lu Chengchuan be arrested obediently?

This guy's strength was extraordinary, the previous competition didn't fully measure how powerful he was. This kind of person had power, and his mind had also changed. They really dared to act rashly in anger.

"You calm down, I'll talk to him."

Zhang Chengyan took the person to the other side. When he stopped, he thought of a way: "That's right, you want martial arts, you agree to him, I'll give you another martial arts manual."

People were called here with martial arts, Zhang Chengyan knew that he wouldn't act without seeing the rabbit, and wouldn't take action without some benefits.

Wasn't it just martial arts, their Investigation Bureau had many collections, not to mention taking out one, ten were no problem.

"Okay, then please ask Director Zhang to tell him." Lu Chengchuan agreed on the spot.

It was different with martial arts. Even if it was a low-level martial art, Lu Chengchuan needed it very much. With the System's help in fusion, he only needed to collect enough to obtain more advanced martial arts.

After all that, the price just hadn't been right. As long as the price was right, Lu Chengchuan was actually quite reasonable.

Zhang Chengyan was rendered speechless by him, but he still went to find Wang Xinghan.

"Old Wang, he's agreed. Get your men over here quickly."

"How did he agree? What benefits did you give him?" Wang Xinghan was a little annoyed. Why didn't his words carry any weight?

Zhang Chengyan didn't want to explain and kept urging him, "Don't worry about that. If you don't call your men, I'll go back and tell him there's no need for a competition."

"Don't, don't, don't, I'll call them right away."

Wang Xinghan had no choice but to stop and turned to shout at an officer next to him, "Get the Special Operations Battalion here, all of them."

The officer saluted and immediately made a call to assemble the men.

They didn't have to wait long before a group of soldiers came jogging over. At a glance, there were about six or seven hundred of them.
