Extreme Martial Arts Home

Wang Heng's offer had reached its limit, and he watched Luo Feng with anticipation. “My apologies.” Luo Feng bowed slightly. “I appreciate the Thunder Dojo's offer, but I've already joined the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo and haven't considered switching. I'm truly sorry.” Wang Heng was taken aback. He refused? “Are you sure you don't want to reconsider?” the burly man asked, frowning with a glare. “No need.” Luo Feng stood up and bowed slightly. “Mr. Wang, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave.” Luo Feng knew well that since he had already refused the offer, sitting together any longer would only increase the awkwardness. Wang Heng scrutinized Luo Feng. Faced with such temptation, the young man remained completely unshaken. Wang Heng couldn't help but sigh inwardly, then waved his hand and smiled, “Alright, I won't try to persuade you further. If you ever change your mind, the doors of my Thunder Dojo will always be open for you.” “Thank you, Mr. Wang.” Luo Feng smiled and promptly exited. As soon as Luo Feng left, Wang Heng's expression darkened. He called out, “Send Wan Dong in.” “Yes, Supervisor.” The subordinate outside immediately went to inform Wan Dong. “I didn't expect the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo to snatch another talent this time.” Wang Heng stroked his chin, his tiger-like eyes narrowing slightly. “Ever since the 'Phantom War God' was severely injured and retired, my Thunder Dojo has always been at a disadvantage compared to the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo in Jiangnan Base City. Sigh!” Wang Heng was also anxious! Globally, the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo and the Thunder Dojo were the two largest Martial Arts Halls! Their founders were, respectively, the world's strongest and second strongest individuals! Naturally, the high-ranking members of both Dojos would greet each other with smiles on the surface. However, beneath the facade, they were constantly at odds, each striving to gain an advantage over the other! Among the many Base Cities worldwide, in some, the Thunder Dojo's influence surpassed that of the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo! However, in Jiangnan Base City, the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo held a slight advantage. “Supervisor.” The cold, young Wan Dong walked in. As Wan Dong looked around, he exuded confidence! Clearly, his performance in this Warrior Combat Assessment, where he had hunted more monsters than Luo Feng and ranked first, had made him even more self-assured. “Ah, Wan Dong.” Wang Heng offered a slight smile. “You are the most outstanding new Warrior in this batch from our Thunder Dojo! However… your current strength still has some gap compared to Luo Feng.” “Supervisor.” Wan Dong grew anxious. He still had a gap compared to Luo Feng? “Are you doubting my words?” Wang Heng frowned. Wan Dong shook his head. He knew that the Supervisor before him had once been a high-level Warlord-tier Warrior, and his position as 'Supervisor' also granted him various special powers. In terms of status, he was no less than a War God-tier expert. How could such a person lie? “Let me tell you clearly, your physical fitness is no worse than his. But in actual combat, even three of you wouldn't be able to match one Luo Feng.” Wang Heng stated solemnly. “However, while the gap between you and him is significant now, it doesn't mean you'll be weaker than him in the future. What you need to do now is work hard and surpass him.” “I've seen many geniuses, but many have also fallen into obscurity!” “Warriors walk on the edge of life and death! Your talent only means you got an earlier start. You've just become a Warrior… this path, you've only just begun! Never slack off. Luo Feng is just the first opponent you need to surpass. In the future, you'll have to surpass many more.” Wang Heng encouraged. “I hope that one day, I'll witness the birth of a new War God!” Wan Dong's blood boiled with excitement from his words. Yes, Luo Feng was just the first opponent. In the future, he would surpass many more, until he became a War God! “Alright, you may go. You've been killing all night, you should get some good rest.” Wang Heng smiled. “Yes, Supervisor.” Wan Dong respectfully withdrew. Wang Heng shook his head, picked up his teacup, and took a small sip. For many years, ever since he took on the position of 'Supervisor,' he had constantly tried various methods to cultivate talented individuals. Whether it was by putting pressure on them, enticing them with money or secret techniques, or other means. The more experts he cultivated in his faction, the more solidified Wang Heng's position became. “This Wan Dong might give me a surprise in the future.” Wang Heng chuckled self-deprecatingly. “However, I don't expect too much from him; it would be good enough if he could catch up to Luo Feng. Tsk tsk… an 18-year-old at the 'Insightful' level, with excellent physical fitness. What a promising talent.” Wang Heng shook his head, drank his tea, and stopped overthinking. No matter what, Luo Feng and Wan Dong were just 'promising talents' for now. … In the Northern Military Region of Jiangnan Base City, Luo Feng and Yang Wu, now changed into their own clothes, were walking and chatting cheerfully. “Crazy, that Wan Dong's gaze towards you just now was a bit off. He even said… he wanted to compete with you to see who would become a Warlord-tier Warrior first.” Yang Wu said, puzzled. “Who knows what's going on? That Wan Dong seemed to see me as a rival.” Luo Feng was also puzzled by Wan Dong's earlier words. What he didn't know was that, after Wang Heng's words, Wan Dong had already set Luo Feng as his first rival! “I passed the combat assessment, I should let my family know.” Luo Feng smiled, taking out his phone from his pocket. “Brother Yang, you should also inform your family.” “Mm.” Yang Wu nodded with a chuckle. Luo Feng and Yang Wu both dialed their families. … Inside Mingyue Residential District, Yangzhou City, one of the Eight Great Guardian Cities of Jiangnan Base City. “Hong Guo, your Luo Feng will surely pass this Warrior Combat Assessment.” Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan, pushing their younger son Luo Hua's wheelchair, were conversing with a white-haired elder nearby. “Is this combat assessment dangerous?” Gong Xinlan couldn't help but ask. “My Xiao Feng said it wasn't dangerous, but we saw online that it is.” “Yes, there's still some danger.” The white-haired elder nodded. “According to my son, the Warrior Combat Assessment generally has a 3% to 5% mortality rate. The disability rate is around 5% to 8%. This means that typically, one Warrior Combat Assessment will cripple over a hundred prospective Warriors.” Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan exchanged glances, their hearts filled with tension. “Your Xiao Feng will be perfectly fine, don't worry.” The white-haired elder smiled. “Mm, mm.” Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan nodded. Although they appeared calm on the surface, the couple remained very uneasy deep down. Luo Hua, sitting in his wheelchair, remained silent, but his fists were tightly clenched. Suddenly— A cheerful phone ringtone sounded. Mother Gong Xinlan took out her phone from her pocket, a hint of joy appearing on her face, and quickly looked to the side, saying, “It's Xiao Feng's call.” “Answer it quickly!” Luo Hongguo urged. Luo Hua also stared at the phone, and the white-haired elder beside them watched with a smile. “Hello.” Gong Xinlan answered the call and put it on speaker. “Mom, I passed the Warrior Combat Assessment! I'll be home tonight, so make sure to prepare some good food!” The voice from the phone was heard by everyone around. Father Luo Hongguo smiled, and Luo Hua, who had been clenching his fists in his wheelchair, finally relaxed them and smiled too. “Good, good, Mom will definitely prepare lots of delicious food!” Gong Xinlan was overjoyed. … August 2nd, evening, Mingyue Residential District, Yangzhou City. “Luo Feng's back, congratulations!” “Congratulations my ass, that Warrior Combat Assessment was no challenge for Luo Feng at all.” Walking along the Residential District road, Luo Feng smiled and greeted the Warriors he saw. In human society, the number of Warriors was far fewer compared to ordinary people. In this Mingyue Residential District, all residents were Warrior families, and all of them had joined the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo, so their relationships were naturally very good. “Mom, Dad.” Luo Feng immediately saw his parents and the family's nanny already standing at their doorstep. “Time to eat, time to eat.” Father Luo Hongguo immediately smiled. That evening, Luo Feng and his family were very happy, as from this moment on, legally speaking, Luo Feng was officially a Warrior! After eleven o'clock at night. In the audio-visual room on the second floor of Luo Feng's home. “They say that once you officially become a Warrior, you can access the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo's internal Warrior network!” Luo Feng was a little excited. Some special internal networks required specific identities to enter. Only Warriors of the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo were qualified to enter its internal Warrior network—the Extreme Martial Arts Home! As for the HR Alliance platform, any Warrior could log in. “Extreme Martial Arts Home.” Luo Feng typed the website address via the keyboard. Immediately, a massive 200-inch screen appeared on one wall of the audio-visual room, and the website 'Extreme Martial Arts Home' loaded onto it. “Beep.” Luo Feng verified his fingerprint. Beautiful music flowed through the audio-visual room like a babbling brook. At the same time, a personal profile page appeared on the giant screen, displaying a photo of Luo Feng and some information tables below— Name: Luo Feng Gender: Male Address: Jiangnan Base City, Huaxia Nation Warrior ID Number: 426123205608010002 Rank: Soldier-tier (Beginner) Contribution Points: 0 Currency Balance: 20,000,000 Huaxia Coins
