Intermediate Student, Bountiful Gains

Intermediate Student, Bountiful Gains

Luo Wen remained calm throughout.

He had already tested himself many times in the S.H.I.E.L.D. training room.

"Come on, throw a punch with all your strength."

Instructor Wu turned to Luo Wen and said.

"Alright."

Luo Wen nodded, clenched his right fist, and rolled his wrist.

He stood before the Fist Strength Testing Machine, took a bow stance, drew back his fist, then swung it out violently!

His fist stirred up gusts of wind.

Bang!

A thunderous boom rang out.

The Fist Strength Testing Machine shuddered, and then a number appeared on the screen—532 kg.

Instructor Wu, who stood nearby with his arms folded, widened his eyes slightly and parted his lips.

532 kg!

That was already close to the 600 kg threshold for an Advanced Student!

At sixteen, he was already nearly at the level of an Advanced Student?

This was even better than Luo Feng's results when he had first joined the Martial Arts Hall last year!

Luo Wen looked at Instructor Wu.

"Try another punch!"

Unable to conceal his excitement, Instructor Wu spoke to Luo Wen.

Every year, countless students registered at the Limit Martial Hall, but only a pitiful few ultimately became Martial Artists—rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.

And now, he seemed to have found one.

Instructor Wu himself was a Martial Artist, but only an Intermediate Warrior-level Martial Artist.

His aptitude was average.

The highest he could likely reach in this lifetime was Advanced Warrior-level.

Instructors like them most enjoyed teaching exceptionally gifted students.

It could become something to boast about, as well as a valuable connection for the future.

Thus, after witnessing Luo Wen's talent, Instructor Wu's expression and tone became noticeably more cordial.

"Alright."

Luo Wen nodded, bent his knees to gather strength again, and threw another punch!

This time, Luo Wen felt that he had coordinated his strength better.

Bang!

"541 kg"

The fist strength data appeared on the screen.

Instructor Wu's eyes lit up. With strength like that, he was undoubtedly a genius.

"Very good. Your fist strength has fully reached the Intermediate Student standard and is even close to that of an Advanced Student. Come, I'll take you to test your speed as well."

Instructor Wu was a Martial Artist himself. Though he knew Luo Wen was a genius, he was not overly enthusiastic about it.

Next, under Instructor Wu's guidance, Luo Wen tested his speed as well.

Without question, his measured speed was around fourteen meters per second.

"Both your speed and fist strength meet the standards. From today onward, you are an Intermediate Student of our Limit Martial Hall."

After the test ended, Instructor Wu personally handed Luo Wen his Intermediate Student certificate.

"Thank you, Instructor Wu."

Luo Wen replied politely. He was not surprised by the result.

"Your talent is exceptional. It probably won't be long before you advance to Advanced Student." After praising him, Instructor Wu shifted the topic. "However, I can see that your power exertion technique is not quite right. There is still room for improvement."

Luo Wen's eyes immediately brightened. "Please instruct me, Instructor Wu."

The main reason he had come to register at the Limit Martial Hall was to receive guidance from its instructors.

Now that Instructor Wu had taken the initiative to show him goodwill, Luo Wen naturally could not have asked for more.

"Alright, come with me. I'll demonstrate it for you."

Instructor Wu was quite willing as well.

Everyone liked guiding geniuses. If he could forge a good connection, that would be even better.

"When throwing a punch, it is not simply a matter of exerting force with your arm. Your entire body is exerting force. It begins from your lower body, travels through your waist and abdomen, then your back, and finally reaches your arm. The muscles of the human body are like a great dragon—they form a single whole. The waist and abdomen are the core of the core. Only when you exert force correctly through your core can you fully unleash your fist strength."

"Watch carefully."

Instructor Wu took off his shirt, revealing his sharply defined upper body. He settled into a horse stance, slowly gathered strength, then suddenly blasted out a punch!

Buzz!

That air punch actually created a ring of white light in the air!

The air had been blasted apart!

If a sheet of paper had been placed five meters ahead, it would likely have been torn apart instantly.

Luo Wen's pupils contracted.

He fell into thought.

Instructor Wu had taken off his shirt, so Luo Wen had clearly seen the movement of his waist and abdomen and the activation of his muscles. It truly differed from his own.

Luo Wen instinctively imitated Instructor Wu's movements, taking a horse stance as well before trying an air punch.

Buzz.

There was only a barely audible sound of air tearing.

"No, your core still isn't exerting force properly."

Instructor Wu shook his head as he slowly gathered strength again.

"Imagine that you are a bow being slowly drawn back. Then, release the bowstring..."

Instructor Wu threw another punch.

Luo Wen stared fixedly at Instructor Wu's movements, committing every detail to memory.

Then Luo Wen closed his eyes.

After mentally running through it many times, Luo Wen slowly gathered strength with his eyes closed.

Then he threw a punch!

The forceful wind burst forth, faintly stirring the folds of Instructor Wu's pants.

Instructor Wu nodded in satisfaction.

That punch was starting to look the part.

This kid had remarkable comprehension, no worse than Luo Feng.

Next, Instructor Wu explained in detail how to exert force through individual areas, including the legs, hips, back, and arms.

Luo Wen gained immensely from it.

Such precious experience was difficult to learn in the Marvel world.

"Alright, we'll stop here for today. Don't bite off more than you can chew. First, fully absorb what I've taught you. It should be enough for you to advance to Advanced Student at the Martial Arts Hall."

An hour later, Instructor Wu withdrew his stance and said to Luo Wen with a smile.

"Alright, thank you very much, Instructor Wu!"

Luo Wen thanked him earnestly.

With so many students present, Instructor Wu had personally guided him alone for so long. He had to accept this favor.

"Mm. This USB drive contains the Basic Ten Forms of our Limit Martial Hall. Train with this set of movements, and your physical fitness will improve faster."

Instructor Wu took a USB drive from his bag and handed it to Luo Wen.

Luo Wen accepted the USB drive.

Instructor Wu patted Luo Wen on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Watching Instructor Wu's departing back, Luo Wen felt somewhat moved.

He would have to repay this favor if he got the chance.

After Instructor Wu disappeared from sight, Luo Wen looked at the USB drive in his hand, his mood excellent.

Wasn't this exactly why he had been so eager to join the Martial Arts Hall?

First, techniques for exerting bodily strength. Second, more efficient ways to train his body.

Now he had both.

At the very least, they would be enough to carry him through the Quasi-Martial Artist stage.

He had originally thought he would need to attend the group classes in the Limit Martial Hall's main hall for some time before learning these things. He had not expected to obtain them the moment he arrived.

With his goal achieved, Luo Wen went downstairs to retrieve his things and left the Limit Martial Hall.

After leaving the Martial Arts Hall, Luo Wen followed the information Zhou Huayang had provided and found a real estate agency. Through their introduction, he rented an apartment very close to the Limit Martial Hall, as well as a warehouse of around four hundred square meters.

The apartment had two bedrooms and a living room, with a monthly rent of 4,000 Chinese Yuan. The price was fairly reasonable, considering it was close to the Limit Martial Hall and located in the heart of Yi'an District.

The warehouse, on the other hand, was much more expensive. Its monthly rent was 120,000 Chinese Yuan, despite being in a relatively remote location.

It could not be helped. Land resources were what every major base city lacked most right now.

Jiangnan Base City alone had nearly two hundred million people. Of course it was crowded.

After settling the warehouse, Luo Wen snapped his fingers and returned to the Marvel world through a black-blue vortex.

When he returned to his room once more, there was already a silver suitcase in his hand.
