At the same time.
Ling Ling changed into a tight-fitting combat suit, her ponytail adding a touch of spirit to her appearance.
She took a King-class Battleship to the Limit Martial Arts Dojo Jiangnan Headquarters.
The staff members, upon seeing her, looked solemn and respectfully greeted, "My Lord!"
"Have Wang Meng come to see me!"
The staff member respectfully replied, "God of War Wang Meng is in the meeting room on the sixth floor. I will notify him immediately. Please wait a moment, My Lord!"
"Mm!"
On the other side, on the seventh floor of the Limit Martial Arts Dojo.
Wu Tong was about to report Jiang Li's situation to a Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man when he saw him answering a call, his tone extremely respectful: "Yes, yes, God of War, understood!"
God of War?!
Wu Tong's heart skipped a beat. The God of War was the pinnacle of martial artists, and there were only a few hundred in the entire world.
"Wu Tong, is there a trainee named Jiang Li?"
After hanging up the phone, the silver-haired man asked.
"Yes!"
Wu Tong's pupils shrank, and he said quickly, "Captain, I was just about to tell you, this trainee has reached the strength of a warrior level, and his footwork has reached the Subtle level!"
"Oh?"
The Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man revealed a look of sudden understanding. "No wonder the God of War himself called!"
"Captain, are you saying the God of War called specifically because of Jiang Li?"
Wu Tong stared at the Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man with disbelief.
Jiang Li had actually caught the attention of a God of War-level expert?
Meanwhile.
The other examinees participating in the assessment had also completed the nerve response tests.
"Alright, for this quasi-warrior assessment, a total of four people have passed. They are Jiang Li, Luo Feng…"
Jiang Nian announced the results with a smile.
Luo Feng and the others were overjoyed. If they weren't surrounded by a group of martial arts experts, they would have been shouting and cheering right now.
Becoming a warrior meant they could provide their families with better living conditions! Especially Luo Feng; he had long wanted to move his family into Bright Moon Estate.
"Everyone, the next step is to sign the practical combat assessment contracts. You can help with that!"
At this moment, Wu Tong and the Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man walked over. Wu Tong glanced at Jiang Li and said, "Captain, this is Jiang Li…"
"And that's Luo Feng, an eighteen-year-old warrior."
Upon hearing this, the Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man turned his gaze towards Jiang Li and the others. Luo Feng felt as if the silver-haired man's eyes held an endless starry sky, deep and mysterious, and he was instantly drawn into it.
Then, he shuddered and suddenly woke up, his heart filled with shock: How terrifying! A single glance made me blank out!
Afterward, he glanced at Jiang Li, but saw that he seemed unaffected, while the other two students who had passed the assessment had stiff expressions and blank stares.
So strong, the soul?
Not only was Luo Feng shocked, but even the Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man was astonished.
"Jiang Li?"
"Huh?!"
Jiang Li nonchalantly replied, "What is it?"
"Haha, nothing." The Silver-Haired Black-Robed Man smiled and said, "Not bad talent, keep up the good work!"
In this world, besides warriors, there was another, even rarer, existence.
Spiritualist!
To become a Spiritualist, one first needs a powerful soul and mental strength.
And Jiang Li possessed incredible comprehension, which was a manifestation of the human brain functioning at its peak.
Perfect recall was just child's play; what was terrifying was his unparalleled ability to deduce.
"What happened to me?"
The other two students finally regained their senses. They looked at each other and, recalling what had just happened, were frightened into a cold sweat.
"These are four applications for the martial artist practical combat assessment."
At that moment, a fat old man handed over four contracts: "The martial artist practical combat assessment. Once you participate, if you are killed by a monster during the process, it has nothing to do with our Limit Martial Arts Dojo! Of course, the death rate in the martial artist practical combat assessment is very low."
The four of them took the contracts and signed their names without any hesitation.
"Today is July 1st, and there's still a month until the practical assessment. You need to prepare yourselves well during this month!"
With that, Instructor Jiang Nian walked over to the keyboard and quickly pressed a few keys. An article immediately appeared on the huge screen.
""Gene Yuan Energy Cultivation Method"!"
Seeing the first seven words of the article, everyone's pupils shrank slightly.
The reason why martial artists are so powerful, even to the point where some top-tier martial artists can move faster than the speed of sound, split mountains with a single blade, and destroy fighter jets with a single punch, is all thanks to Gene Yuan Energy!
"When your genes are optimized to a certain degree, you can absorb energy from the universe and integrate it into every cell in your body!"
Jiang Nian patiently explained, "During this process, your bones, internal organs, blood, cells, and so on will continuously improve and evolve!"
"All of this depends on you absorbing energy from the universe, integrating it into every cell, and then making it your own energy!"
"And this 'Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method' is the only method in the world to cultivate Gene Yuan Energy!"
Jiang Li carefully read through the 'Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method' and immediately memorized it.
"You can start cultivating Gene Yuan Energy in a month." Instructor Jiang Nian said with a smile. "As for the most precious 'Guidance Techniques', you can only obtain them after you become true martial artists and join our Limit Martial Arts Dojo or other factions!"
There is only one method to cultivate Gene Yuan Energy, but there are tens of thousands of Guidance Techniques.
Different Guidance Techniques can greatly affect the speed of Gene Yuan Energy cultivation, by several times or even dozens of times. Therefore, Guidance Techniques are the most precious cultivation methods of major forces.
"Instructor!"
Bai Yang couldn't help but ask, "How amazing are Guidance Techniques? How can they increase the speed of Gene Yuan Energy cultivation?"
"Let me put it this way: if you only use the 'Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method' to cultivate, and you refine for five minutes a day, your body's cells will already be saturated and unable to absorb any more cosmic Yuan Energy."
Yan Kuan walked to Jiang Nian's side and explained, "But with the 'Guidance Techniques,' the capacity of your body's cells increases significantly, allowing you to train for ten minutes, an hour, or even longer."
"Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded in understanding.
It was like the amount of food one could eat. A normal person might eat three bowls of rice a day, but with the 'Guidance Techniques,' they could eat ten bowls or more.
It seems Gene Yuan Energy is the fundamental breakthrough in this world.
Jiang Li understood that the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method might allow one to cultivate to the level of Universe Master, but he didn't know how many epochs it would take.
"Speaking of Guidance Techniques, the world's strongest, our Limit Martial Arts Dojo's global head, 'Hong,' has created nine top-tier Guidance Techniques. If you join our Limit Martial Arts Dojo and have enough contribution points, you'll have the chance to learn the best Guidance Techniques!"
The martial artists present were all trying to entice Jiang Li and the other three.
The major powers in the world all hope that their warriors will increase in number, especially the talented ones!
"Instructor, how powerful was that silver-haired warrior who just left with the chief instructor? He made us unable to resist with just a look?!"
At this moment, Luo Feng asked the question that was on his mind.
"Hahaha, Luo Feng, that person is a Spiritualist, and they are much rarer than our warriors!"
Yan Kuan explained with a smile, "Spiritualists are also warriors, but they are the most terrifying existence among warriors!"
"But come to think of it..."
After Luo Feng mentioned it, Jiang Nian's gaze fell on Jiang Li: "Jiang Li, you didn't seem to feel anything just now?"
"Didn't feel anything?!"
Jiang Nian's words startled the other warriors present.
Even martial artists of the same level would experience a momentary lapse in concentration when facing a Spiritualist's mental attack. In a battle between strong individuals, this momentary lapse could often turn the tide.
This was the most terrifying aspect of being a Spiritualist.
"I can still feel it."
Jiang Li casually brushed it off.
Hearing Jiang Li's words, many martial artists rolled their eyes.
If you're going to brush it off, at least put some effort into it!
