Jiang Li wasn't in a rush to claim the red packet.
After all, he wasn't particularly desperate for the Three Points Return to Origin Energy.
[Devourer Lord: Heh… To be honest, I really don't want to help someone like you who killed their teacher and senior brother. But, as I said before, you've gotten lucky and joined the chat group! Your ending is simple: You will die twice! You will be abandoned by everyone, and your own daughter Youruo and son Bushen will both die! Your ambition will ultimately be a dream, and the Tianxia Hui will soon change hands!]
Xiongba's pupils constricted, and he instantly felt his scalp tingle!
He was superstitious by nature and believed in fortune-telling above all else; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so determined to find Nipusa.
Previously, he had his doubts about Jiang Li, but the fact that he spoke of his son and daughter's names proved beyond any doubt that he wasn't lying!
Jiang Li's words about his ambition failing and the Tianxia Hui changing hands weren't meant to scare him!
[Xiongba: @Devourer Lord, please enlighten me, who is it that ruins my ambition, and who takes over the Tianxia Hui? Please, great one, show me how to change my fate!]
[Jiang Li has claimed your exclusive red packet!]
Just then, a notification suddenly popped up on the chat interface!
Xiongba was overjoyed; now that he had received the items, things would be easier to handle.
[Devourer Lord: @Xiongba, I've said all I need to. You should go save your son, Bushen, as soon as possible, or else… everything will be too late.]
[Devourer Lord: Everyone, I'm logging off.]
Fengyun World.
Tianxia Hui, Xiongba stood up, his face filled with terror.
His son was going to die?
Xiongba was greatly alarmed and immediately shouted towards the outside:
"Wen ChouChou, immediately send out all the disciples and search for Bushen's whereabouts with all your might! Notify me immediately if there's any news!"
"Tell everyone, whoever finds Bushen first, I will reward them handsomely!"
"Also, notify everyone! Protect Bushen at all costs!"
"Anyone who dares to harm Bushen, kill them!"
Bushen is Xiongba's son!
However, this secret, besides Xiongba and Bushen, and his daughter Youruo, no one else knows.
Hearing that his son was about to die, Xiongba didn't care that such an order might make people suspect their relationship!
He didn't dare to doubt Jiang Li's words.
[You comprehend Three Points Return to Origin Energy, analyze Wind God Leg, Cloud Dispelling Palm, Sky Frost Fist, you combine what you have learned before, with your understanding, you comprehend Return to Origin Scripture]
"Not bad, this Three Points Return to Origin Energy is, after all, a top-tier martial art in the Fengyun World, much stronger than the martial arts of other worlds," Shi Jiang thought to himself.
Shi Jiang seized the opportunity and went to the store to exchange for more cultivation techniques.
Then, he entered a state of enlightenment.
[You comprehend the Nine Yang Divine Skill, understand the Dao of the Sun, and with a sudden inspiration, you create the Solar Breathing Technique!] [You combine the Yin and Yang Dao, understand the principle of Yin and Yang coordination, of complementing each other, and you perfect the Yin Yang Hunyuan Taiji Skill.]
Shi Jiang didn't stop there.
He continued to immerse himself, and bought the techniques uploaded by Zhang Sanfeng!
[You comprehend the Heaven and Earth Great Shift, understand the method of deflecting force, and combining it with the Dao of Taiji, you comprehend the divine ability: Using Four Ounces to Deflect a Thousand Pounds!]
[You comprehended the Flying Willow Catkin Smoke Skill, understood the Way of Speed, and combined it with the principle of Using Four Ounces to Deflect a Thousand Pounds. You have comprehended a movement technique—Leaping Technique.]
However, he wasn't in a rush to upload it, and instead went straight to sleep.
After all, he was inevitably tired after just experiencing a great battle.
The next day.
Jiang Li followed Yang Hui into the Elite Training Camp.
The entire Elite Training Camp, while called a training camp, actually felt like an ancient palace.
All sorts of precious flowers, plants, trees, elegant pavilions with unique stones, small bridges over flowing water, were all present.
"The Nine Heavens Pavilion is ahead. That's where all the students study and train, and some of the special training rooms are also located there."
Yang Hui explained patiently to Shi Jiang as they walked, "There are 182 students in total. Over thirty students graduate each year, and we recruit about the same number annually."
"However, two-thirds of our recruits come from the Elite Training Camp of the Limit Martial Arts School."
"Only one-third are recruited from other places around the world, so I could only get you a B-rank assessment slot!"
Shi Jiang nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.
Although Yang Hui was a special envoy, he was still just a special envoy.
Managing to secure a B-rank assessment slot already meant he had done his best.
"The Jiangnan Pavilion is up ahead."
"And this Jiangnan Pavilion is named after the Jiangnan Base City."
Yang Hui led Jiang Li across a wooden arch bridge and arrived at a complex of buildings. Pointing at a nearby garden, he said, "There are currently two students in Jiangnan Pavilion, and you are the third."
"Shi Jiang, Zhao Ruo!"
Yang Hui pushed open the garden gate and called out.
From the balcony on the second floor of a pavilion on the left, a short-haired girl wearing a loose bathrobe walked out, while a muscular man in training clothes emerged from the pavilion directly in front. His entire body seemed to be forged from steel.
Seeing Jiang Li, his restrained eyes suddenly flashed with light: "You are the Invincible War God?"
Jiang Li: "..."
"Wow, wow, wow! Invincible War God Jiang Li?"
Hearing Shi Jiang's voice, Zhao Ruo, who had been somewhat sleepy, instantly became excited. With a Leaping Technique, she jumped directly from the second floor in front of Jiang Li, sizing him up.
"So it seems you all know him?"
Yang Hui asked in surprise.
"Teacher Yang, eighty percent of the War God Forum is about Jiang Li. Now, there's probably no one in the War God circle who doesn't know Jiang Li's name."
Shi Jiang sighed, his gaze towards Jiang Li filled with admiration.
Warriors have always spoken with their strength, let alone War Gods.
With Jiang Li's record, it can't be said that no one will come after him, but he is definitely the first of his kind.
"Jiang Li, it seems I don't need to introduce him."
Yang Hui smiled: "Shi Jiang, Zhao Ruo, Jiang Li just arrived. You two need to take care of him. I'll go handle some procedures first."
"He's also a trainee?"
Shi Jiang and Zhao Ruo exchanged glances, both showing surprised expressions.
This wasn't the time for recruiting trainees, and they'd never heard of the Elite Training Camp accepting mid-term enrollees.
"Otherwise, what do you think he's here for?"
"Isn't he supposed to be a teacher?"
Zhao Ruo responded blankly, which in turn stunned Yang Hui.
Yang Hui didn't know whether to consider Jiang Li a trainee, after all, Hong had only instructed him to make arrangements!
If it was a general War God, then he was definitely a trainee.
But Jiang Li?
"Senior sister is joking."
Jiang Li smiled slightly and asked, "Teacher Yang Hui, can I ask you for a favor?"
Yang Hui was one of the teachers at the Elite Training Camp, so it was correct for Shi Jiang to address him as Teacher Yang Hui, as a sign of respect.
"Hmm?"
"I have eleven weapons here, some are S-rank, and there might even be SS-rank ones, plus combat suits, arm guards, leg guards, and so on..."
"I'm not very clear on the grades."
Shi Jiang opened his backpack and handed it to Yang Hui, asking, "Could you help me deal with these?"
The three of them looked at the weapons and equipment still stained with blood, and couldn't help but look at each other, then widened their eyes at Shi Jiang.
Yang Hui directly gasped, "Shi Jiang..."
"Go on."
"How many War Gods have you killed, exactly?"
Jiang Li: "(O▼O)?!"
While others hunt monsters to make money, you, Jiang Li, are getting rich by killing War Gods?
That's a bit much!
The Jiangnan Pavilion has only three pavilions. Shi Jiang lives in the main one, Zhao Ruo's is on the left, and Jiang Li naturally lives in the one on the right.
"Teacher Yang's face changed just now!"
Zhao Ruo was very enthusiastic. She greeted Jiang Li and Shi Jiang to sit in the living room of her residence, and then laughed, "Judging by his expression, he doesn't seem to believe that these weapons and equipment were found in the Iron Armored Dragon's lair!"
After all, War Gods are humanity's main force against monsters. No matter who randomly kills War Gods for no reason, Hong won't stand idly by.
So the War God Palace strictly forbids existences exceeding the War God from attacking War Gods.
"...Jiang Li, which city in Jiangnan are you from?"
Zhao Ruo asked curiously, "I'm from Suchang, sent here by the military."
"Yangzhou City."
Jiang Li smiled, "I'm also considered a recommendation."
"Hehe, my grandfather is also from Yangzhou!"
Shi Jiang said with a laugh, "But I'm from the main city area."
