The train was still traveling toward the site of the Warrior Assessment, the Jiangnan City North Military District.

Now...

Luo Feng had grown increasingly confident.

He cared deeply about his relationship with Senior Yun. In the less than a month they had spent together, whenever he completed a task, such as advancing to [Advanced Warrior] or attaining the [Minute Subtlety Level Movement Technique]... he received contribution points.

Sometimes Senior Yun also picked out treasures and resources.

Luo Feng could choose to exchange contribution points for them.

Sometimes Senior Yun even gave him extremely precious treasures.

They had greatly increased the speed of his growth.

I have to show what I can do in this Warrior Assessment and attract the Dojo of Limits' attention. That way, I can complete the important task Senior Yun gave me: "Obtain a place in the Dojo of Limits' Elite Training Camp."

Luo Feng had learned about the Elite Training Camp from the task information.

The Dojo of Limits' Elite Training Camp was also known as the War God Preparatory Camp. Anyone who joined it would... definitely become a Wargod someday, as long as they didn't die!

With that status, he would definitely be worthy of Xu Xin.

Xu Xin, I wonder what you think of me.

Xu Xin's figure had only just appeared in Luo Feng's mind when he pushed the thoughts away. He liked Xu Xin, but he also knew full well that a forcibly twisted melon wasn't sweet. There was no need to keep dwelling on these things...

He had no burdens now.

Since he wanted to know whether Xu Xin liked him, he could make time to see her and spend some time with her later. Then he would naturally find out.

"Bzzz~"

The train began to vibrate. Chen Yi looked out the window; the train was about to pull into the station. Just then, an announcement sounded.

"All passengers... please prepare to disembark."

Jiangnan City, Northern Military Region.

Near Monster Town.

Chen Yi got off the train and glanced at Luo Feng out of the corner of his eye before quickly looking away. He had to keep his cloud-raising identity as "Senior Yun" separate from his own identity.

Cloud-raising...

It was his greatest secret and trump card.

As long as no one discovered that the cloud-raiser behind the scenes was connected to him, the other side could freely issue all kinds of tasks without affecting him at all.

Around them.

The other Quasi-Martial Artists looked curiously at their surroundings. The military region was bustling...

"This is the Jiangnan City North Military District!"

"The location of your Warrior Assessment!"

A soldier explained.

Time passed bit by bit.

After the Quasi-Martial Artists had lunch in the military region.

In the afternoon.

The military region's soldiers called out in the square:

"When your name is called, come forward to collect the type of weapon and combat uniform you requested..."

Names immediately began to ring out, one after another.

Until...

"Luo Feng!"

Luo Feng stepped forward and collected the items he had requested: the heaviest Blood Shadow Battle Blade, weighing 98 kilograms, along with a combat uniform, combat boots, and some throwing knives.

The officer gave Luo Feng an extra look.

Because Luo Feng had actually requested throwing knives.

Few warriors used hidden weapons like throwing knives. Generally, only Spirit Readers used them.

Could he be a Spirit Reader? No... not very likely. The officer considered it for a moment, then dismissed the thought. The talent of Spirit Readers on Earth was innate, so Spirit Readers were extremely rare among warriors.

He was probably just a warrior who used hidden weapons.

But then he saw the next name, and the list of requested equipment behind it also included throwing knives...

"Chen Yi!"

Chen Yi heard his name and stepped forward to collect his equipment.

Monster Town.

Large numbers of "low-level monsters" had been released inside. Participants hunted monsters and removed their left ears to have their points recorded. Anyone ranked in the top 60% by points would pass the assessment.

Time for a killing spree.

That thought rang out in Luo Feng's and Chen Yi's minds at two different locations in the town. Both intended to display their talent as Spirit Readers here.

Throwing knives.

Under the control of their Spiritual Force.

They began harvesting monsters' lives, cutting off one monster's left ear after another.

The Warrior Assessment.

It was only a test of whether someone was qualified to become a warrior. For Chen Yi and Luo Feng, Spirit Readers who were a Junior War General and an Intermediate War General respectively, the difficulty here was, comparatively speaking, nothing more than a slaughter...

Under their massacre, monster after monster fled... but still couldn't escape the pursuing throwing knives. They were easily pierced and killed!

Inside a building in the sealed-off town.

Officers from the Northern Military Region watched the situation in the town through the monitors.

"Object control!"

"A Spirit Reader!"

An officer suddenly shouted. Judging by the speed of the throwing knife, the person was at least a War General-a War General Level Spirit Reader!

And judging by his face, he probably had only just come of age, hadn't he?

His future prospects were limitless...

From this, it followed that Jiangnan Base City had produced a genius who was practically certain to become a Wargod-and a Spirit Reader Wargod at that!

"Iron Monkey."

"You noticed the Spirit Reader too?"

"The young man on camera 27 is really something. He looks so young, yet he's already a War General Level Spirit Reader. That's a Spirit Reader we're talking about! Generally invincible against others of the same level." The burly man Wang Heng's eyes were also shining. He was a supervisor of the Thunder Dojo, on the same level as Zhuge Tao.

The officer nicknamed Iron Monkey was about to reply, but suddenly realized from Wang Heng's words that Wang Heng was watching "camera 27."

He, on the other hand, was watching "camera 4"!

The locations covered by the two cameras were far apart...

They couldn't possibly be filming the same person at the same time.

Iron Monkey looked at camera 27 and discovered an even more astonishing fact...

Jiangnan Base City.

Had produced two geniuses who were practically certain to become Wargods!

In Monster Town.

Jets of blood sprayed out.

Throwing knives harvested the monsters' lives.

When it came to hunting monsters, Spirit Readers completely outclassed warriors of the same level, let alone when the ones on a killing spree were two War General Level Spirit Readers.

As a result.

Monster Town was littered with the corpses of Iron-Furred Wild Boars, Shadow Cats, and Tiger Mastiffs, while the monsters' roars and cries of agony echoed throughout the town.

The monster corpses lay all over Monster Town, and the number of monsters was dwindling at an abnormal rate, making it especially obvious.

Naturally, a situation like this couldn't be kept hidden.

Soon, the news reached more than just the Thunder Dojo and the Military.

Even Zhuge Tao, one of the Dojo of Limits' four giants, quickly learned what had happened at the Quasi-Warrior Assessment.

"Spirit Readers?"

"And War General Level at that?"

"And there are two of them?!"

Zhuge Tao heard the report from Wu Tong, the Dojo of Limits' chief instructor. The genius Luo Feng, whom he had recruited, and Chen Yi, the second son of his old friend Chen Weilong, were both Spirit Readers-and both had already reached War General Level...

As the Dojo of Limits' supervisor in Jiangnan Base City, his main responsibility was nurturing warriors.

Two War General Level Spirit Readers had suddenly appeared within his jurisdiction.

And he had recruited both of them in advance.

In outsiders' eyes.

That undoubtedly showed that he, Zhuge Tao, had:

"Foresight"!

He had earned no small amount of credit this time...
