First Meeting with Luo Feng, Everyone's Shock

"The Basic Ten Forms truly deserved to be the Limit Martial Hall's time-tested foundational training method," Luo Wen marveled inwardly.

If he hadn't obtained the Basic Ten Forms, his speed couldn't possibly have improved so much.

"Luo Wen, your speed has improved tremendously as well. You're already very close to becoming a Quasi-Martial Artist!"

After finally digesting his inner shock, Instructor Wu spoke.

"It's all thanks to your guidance, Instructor Wu."

Luo Wen thanked him sincerely.

"No, I only gave you a little help. It mainly depended on your own efforts."

Instructor Wu grinned.

The reason he had been so enthusiastic in helping Luo Wen was simply to hear those words from him—or rather, to forge this good connection.

Now that Luo Wen acknowledged this favor, that was enough.

Moreover, Luo Wen's humble, unassuming attitude made him feel comfortable.

"Luo Wen, from now on, you're an Advanced Student of our martial hall. I'll report your situation to Jiang Nian. He should personally guide you then."

Instructor Wu said with a smile.

Throughout Yangzhou City, there was one Limit Hall and twelve Limit Martial Halls.

The person in charge of a Limit Hall was called the Chief Instructor.

The person in charge of a Limit Martial Hall was called an Instructor.

The head of the Yi'an District Limit Martial Hall was Jiang Nian.

Jiang Nian had six instructors under him, and Instructor Wu was one of them.

"Alright, thank you, Instructor Wu."

After saying that, Instructor Wu didn't waste any time and directly led Luo Wen to the Advanced Student Building.

The Advanced Student Building had a similar layout: the first and second floors were large lecture halls, while the third floor was a training hall, except it also had a fourth floor.

The fourth floor was a place only Martial Artists could enter to train.

Instructor Wu brought Luo Wen to the training hall on the third floor.

There were clearly far fewer people in the Advanced Student training hall, with only eight or nine people present.

It wasn't that the Yi'an District Limit Martial Hall had only this many Advanced Students. In reality, there were over a hundred Advanced Students in Yi'an District. It was just that most of them only came when instructors were teaching classes, usually training at home.

Only Advanced Students from poorer families who lacked dedicated training rooms came to the martial hall to train every day.

The eight or nine people in the third-floor training hall were clearly Advanced Students from relatively ordinary family backgrounds.

"Hello, Instructor Wu!"

Seeing Instructor Wu bring an unfamiliar student to the third floor, the eight or nine Advanced Students who had been training all stopped. They looked over curiously and greeted him politely.

"Hello."

"This is Luo Wen. He just passed the Advanced Student test. You'll be seeing each other often in the future."

Instructor Wu introduced Luo Wen to everyone.

"Hello, everyone." Luo Wen greeted them politely.

"So young? Brother Luo Wen, how old are you this year?"

Noticing that Luo Wen was handsome but still somewhat youthful, the Advanced Students couldn't help asking curiously.

Hearing this question, Instructor Wu's lips curved slightly.

"I'm sixteen this year," Luo Wen replied.

"What? Six... teen?"

The Advanced Student who had asked the question froze, and so did everyone else.

"Holy shit! Madman, did you see that? This little brother is even more incredible than you! A sixteen-year-old Advanced Student of the martial hall! My mentality is shattered!"

A burly, muscular man over 1.9 meters tall, with a vicious scar on his face, patted the companion beside him and exclaimed in amazement.

"Yeah, Madman, Brother Luo Wen has broken the record you set! Becoming an Advanced Student at sixteen—terrifying!"

The other Advanced Students also cried out in amazement.

The young man everyone called Madman smiled and scratched his head. "Brother Luo Wen just got here. Don't call me by my nickname. Leave me some dignity!"

Hearing their words, Luo Wen immediately looked toward the Madman they had mentioned.

The man wore an ordinary blue tracksuit. He was about 1.75 meters tall and rather lean, with sharply defined features and a somewhat handsome face. His black eyes were steady and calm.

"Hello, I'm Luo Feng." Noticing Luo Wen looking at him, Luo Feng smiled and greeted him.

Luo Feng!

Luo Wen's heart surged with excitement.

He had never expected to run into Luo Feng so unexpectedly today.

"Hello, Senior Brother Luo."

Luo Wen's expression remained unchanged as he greeted Luo Feng.

Luo Feng was only in his second year of high school now. Like Luo Wen, he was merely an Advanced Student at the martial hall, and they would have plenty of chances to interact in the future.

Luo Feng also gave Luo Wen a careful once-over.

He had many guesses about this newly promoted Advanced Student, who was even a year younger than himself.

First of all, judging by Luo Wen's appearance—tall, straight-backed, with deep Western features and an extraordinary bearing—it was obvious that his family was well-off.

Luo Feng had never seen him before, which meant Luo Wen did not come to the martial hall often to train.

And for someone to become an Advanced Student at the age of sixteen, either he had a "strange headache illness" like Luo Feng, or his family was wealthy.

Luo Feng felt that Luo Wen was most likely from a wealthy family.

But no matter how wealthy he was, becoming an Advanced Student at sixteen still required extraordinary effort.

Moreover, Luo Wen lacked even the slightest sense of superiority that rich young masters like Zhang Haobai possessed, which made Luo Feng view him somewhat more favorably.

Just as Luo Wen and Luo Feng finished speaking, the students all turned to look in one direction.

"Instructor Jiang."

"Instructor."

"Hall Master."

Everyone greeted him in unison.

Luo Wen turned his head as well and saw a bald, middle-aged man dressed in black walking over.

Clearly, this man was Jiang Nian, the Hall Master and instructor of Yi'an District's Limit Martial Hall.

"Hall Master."

Instructor Wu nodded to the black-clothed middle-aged man, then looked at Luo Wen and said to him.

"Luo Wen, this is the Hall Master of our Yi'an District Limit Martial Hall, Instructor Jiang Nian."

"Hello, Instructor Jiang."

Luo Wen nodded slightly and bowed in greeting.

"Mm, hello." Jiang Nian nodded with a faint smile, then looked at Instructor Wu. "Wu Kuan, what was it you called me about?"

Luo Wen silently noted that Instructor Wu's full name was Wu Kuan.

Instructor Wu stepped forward and whispered a few words into Jiang Nian's ear. Jiang Nian's expression changed drastically, and he looked Luo Wen over again in disbelief.

"You're saying Luo Wen's punching strength reached 786 kg, and his speed is 3 meters per second? And he's only sixteen?"

Jiang Nian looked at Wu Kuan in disbelief.

Instructor Wu nodded seriously.

Jiang Nian immediately sucked in a breath.

Jiang Nian had not deliberately lowered his voice, so all the Advanced Students present heard him. They, too, sucked in sharp breaths and fell into a daze.

Luo Feng included.

They had originally thought that Luo Wen had only just met the threshold for becoming an Advanced Student at the martial hall, which was why Instructor Wu had brought him to the Advanced Student building.

Who would have thought that Luo Wen was even stronger than they had imagined.

The threshold for an Advanced Student at the martial hall was 600 kg of punching strength and a speed of 15 meters per second.

Yet Luo Wen's punching strength was 786 kg, and his speed was 3 meters per second.

How the hell was this someone who had just become an Advanced Student at the martial hall? He was practically at the Quasi-Martial Artist level!
