"One punch to blow the Tiger Mastiff's head apart?"
"Three stones shot out of nowhere and instantly killed a Tiger Mastiff?"
"What kind of monster is this?!"
The officer stared at the replayed footage, his face a mask of shock. He immediately pressed the communication button in front of him: "Lock onto the white-robed Provisional Warrior at position 18!"
"Get his information to me immediately!"
"What, Iron Monkey, are you interested too?"
The burly man beside him looked at his good friend from the Northern Military District, a smile playing on his lips. "But you won't get a chance."
"Old Wang…"
The officer known as Iron Monkey was taken aback, his gaze filled with confusion as he looked at Old Wang. "What do you mean by that?"
"His name is Jiang Li, and damn it, he was taken by Limit Martial Arts School!"
The burly man was indeed Old Wang from Thunderbolt Martial Arts School, his face filled with frustration. "Even Inspector Lei came personally to recruit him, but he was rejected. Who would have thought the kid was also a Spiritualist!"
"If Zhuge Tao knew about this, he'd be laughing like a pig!"
"I can't let this stand!"
Old Wang became increasingly angry, slamming his hand on the table. "I have to report this again and try to snatch him!"
"Iron Monkey, aren't we brothers through thick and thin?"
"What do you want to do?!"
Iron Monkey glared, "I can't do anything illegal for you!"
"Illegal stuff? Keep this video confidential, don't let the people from Limit Martial Arts School see it, especially that Zhuge Tao!"
Old Wang finished speaking and immediately dialed the phone of a high-ranking official at Thunderbolt Martial Arts School.
Thunderbolt Martial Arts School Headquarters.
"Hmm? Little Wang from the Jiangnan branch?"
Lei Meng's voice was calm.
Under normal circumstances, the Jiangnan branch wouldn't contact him, the Inspector, directly. The only explanation was that something major had happened!
"Inspector Lei, it's like this, I discovered that this Jiang Li is not only a Warlord Level warrior, but also a Spiritualist!"
Old Wang's tone was very urgent.
"Understood, you don't have to worry about it."
After saying that, Lei Meng hung up the communication.
"What?"
Old Wang, after hanging up the communication, looked stunned. He thought carefully, and he'd made himself very clear!
Warlord Level, and a Spiritualist!
Such a freak, and they didn't need to bother?
But how could he know that after Jiang Li said, 'Ling Ling asked him to join Limit Martial Arts School', Lei Meng knew that Thunderbolt Martial Arts School was out of the running.
...
The night passed.
As the sky began to lighten, the Iron Monkey of the Northern Military District, having watched over the 18th surveillance position all night, was barely able to stay awake.
After Jiang Li had killed five Tiger Mastiffs, he simply went to the entrance of the town to cultivate. With his mental power covering the area, he didn't worry about monsters launching a surprise attack.
"Whoosh... whoosh!"
At this moment, a long, echoing sound rang out.
Simultaneously, a deep voice resonated throughout the entire town: "Time's up! All prospective warriors, immediately gather at the entrance of the town!"
"It's over."
Jiang Li stretched and sauntered from the collapsed building on the side towards the town entrance.
At this moment, a group of would-be martial artists gathered, almost every one stained with blood, perhaps from monsters, perhaps their own.
Some of the would-be martial artists were helped out by others.
"Jiang Li? Hmm, four monster left ears, not bad, next!"
Jiang Li walked out first. The officer in charge of the inspection nodded slightly when he saw the white clothes were completely unstained with blood.
"Lu Fei, four monster left ears, minor injury to the left arm, also not bad!"
Before long, Lu Fei came out as well, and quickly caught up to Jiang Li: "Jiang-ge, I killed four monsters, what about you? Forty or fifty?"
"Same as you."
Jiang Li shrugged. "Four, I should be able to pass."
"What?"
Lu Fei didn't believe it and was about to say something else.
"Look, it's Luo Feng!"
"That Luo Feng, the one recruited early by the Limit Martial Arts School. I wonder how many monsters he's hunted!"
"There are only three people recruited early this time. The top three on the points list will probably be them."
"Hmph, strong physical fitness doesn't mean strong combat ability!"
"Exactly! Maybe he'll faint at the sight of blood!"
"..."
At that moment, the gazes of numerous martial artists focused on Luo Feng, who had just arrived at the entrance.
"Thirty-six monster left ears, no injuries. You currently have the highest number of monster kills!"
The statistical officer's words caused an uproar at the scene!
"I have the most?"
Luo Feng was stunned. He had killed fewer monsters because he was focusing on honing his saber techniques and agility.
"Over here, you crazy guy!" Lu Fei waved at Luo Feng from a distance.
"Brother Lu! Brother Jiang!"
Luo Feng quickly ran over, "How many monsters have you guys killed?"
Hearing this.
Lu Fei chuckled, "Crazy, you might not believe it, but I hunted the same number as Jiang-ge, four! Impressive, right?!"
Jiang Li: "..."
Luo Feng: "..."
If you have to put it that way, it's not wrong.
Luo Feng looked at the spotless Jiang Li and asked, "Jiang-ge probably didn't go hunting, right? Yeah, with Jiang-ge's strength, killing more wouldn't make much difference."
"Luo Feng!"
At this moment, a burly, bearded officer walked over with a smile, "Come with me for a bit. I have an old friend who wants to meet you..."
"Me?"
Luo Feng was a little puzzled. It was normal for Jiang Li to want to see him.
See him?
This was a bit unexpected.
Thunderbolt Martial Arts School Headquarters.
In a large audio-visual room.
"Iceberg."
Lei Meng contacted the Limit Martial Arts School and asked, "How long is the school master expected to be gone this time, going to the Ancient Ruins with the First Elder?"
"Don't know."
The figure on the screen, Iceberg, answered without any expression, "The Head of the School has cut off all communications. This Ancient Ruin seems to be no simple matter. It will probably take some time before he comes out."
"Even the First Elder has cut off communications?"
Lei Meng's face showed a trace of helplessness, "Looks like we can only wait."
Strong individuals like Hong and Thunder God, a single closed-door cultivation could last for several years. Exploring Ancient Ruins was the same; sometimes it would be two or three months, sometimes a year and a half, before they would emerge.
On the other side.
Jiang Li didn't stay in the Northern Military District after finishing his registration. He took a train directly back to Yangzhou City.
"Wife!
Jiang Li had just gotten off the train when he saw Ling Ling staring expectantly at the exit.
"Honey!"
Seeing Jiang Li, a smile immediately bloomed on Ling Ling's pretty face. She hurried forward and, without regard for the people around them, embraced him. Then, the two walked home hand in hand.
That day, they spent their last night on the north side.
The next day.
Jiang Li and Ling Ling moved into Villa 99 in the Mingyue residential area.
This was a three-story villa, covering an area of more than five hundred square meters. Excluding the garden and terrace, each floor had a construction area of more than three hundred square meters.
"This will be our new home from now on."
Jiang Li, holding Ling Ling's hand, took her around, familiarizing themselves with the new surroundings. Only then did Jiang Li go up to the second-floor media room.
"Let's see what Limit Home has to offer!"
After joining the Limit Martial Arts School, one could log into the martial artist network: Limit Home.
Organizations like the HR Alliance, however, only required identity verification for access.
"Beep!"
After Jiang Li verified his fingerprint, a wall in the media room immediately displayed a 200-inch holographic projection, accompanied by a personal information page.
