Chapter 118 The Martial Arts Association's Preliminary Investigation
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Three hours ago, Chen Lie was still soaking in a medicinal bath, refining his qi and blood, and didn't even notice the communicator ringing. But it's not too late now.
Chen Lie put away his communicator and immediately boarded the air shuttle bus at the bus stop next to the martial arts gym, which leads to the school.
It took less than twenty minutes for Chen Lie to get off the car at the school gate and then walk into the school.
Dozens of students were waiting in the plaza of the elite campus.
The instructor of Elite Class 5 paced back and forth in the square, looking very anxious.
Just then, he saw Chen Lie finally appear in the square, and Hong Chengshuo immediately went up to him: "Chen Lie, why are you only arriving now?"
Chen Lie said, "I'm sorry, mentor. I was practicing martial arts when you contacted me and didn't hear you."
"It's alright, the people from the Provincial Martial Arts Association haven't arrived yet, you can just wait here," Hong Chengshuo said.
"Okay." Chen Lie nodded, then asked, "Why are there so many people here?"
Hong Chengshuo explained, "There are forty people in total. These people are all the top ten in the martial arts competition from the four major martial arts high schools in Dongchuan Province."
The top ten in the martial arts competition can enter the talent training camp in advance. These students from other universities are all here to be assessed and evaluated by the provincial martial arts association.
Chen Lie then understood. He saw that the waiting students were divided into four groups, and the nine people at the very front were all from his school, so he walked directly in that direction.
When they returned to the team, the other students who were among the top ten in the school remained silent and simply looked at Chen Lie for a while.
Chen Lie intended to wait there for a while, but Lu Qingchan came out at that moment. She slowly walked towards Chen Lie and said, "Chen Lie, my cousin asked me about you yesterday."
Chen Lie hummed in response but did not speak.
Seeing that Chen Lie remained silent, Lu Qingchan continued, "I felt he had ill intentions, so I didn't tell him."
Chen Lie simply said, "It makes no difference. The sons of the powerful and wealthy can easily find out all my information by pulling some strings."
"Do you know who the woman was with Lu Qingyun yesterday?" Lu Qingchan suddenly asked.
Chen Lie shook his head: "I don't know."
Lu Qingchan looked around and whispered, "Her surname is Luo, and the governor of our Dongchuan Province is also surnamed Luo."
"understood."
"Are you sure you understood? Why aren't you excited at all?"
Lu Qingchan couldn't help but feel strange seeing Chen Lie's calm reaction.
The governor of Dongchuan Province is the person who stands at the pinnacle of power in Dongchuan Province. Chen Lie's reaction is the reaction of an ordinary citizen of Dongchuan Province after learning that he has interacted with the governor.
"What's there to be excited about? Anyone who can be seen with the sons of the powerful Lu family must also be powerful. You don't need to guess to know that," Chen Lie said.
Lu Qingchan felt that Chen Lie had changed a lot recently, and his temperament was not like that of an ordinary young man.
After waiting for nearly an hour, the Martial Arts Association members finally arrived at the square, accompanied by a group of school leaders.
The members of both martial arts associations were in their early thirties, in the prime of their lives.
At this moment, the principal of the provincial key high school spoke, accompanied by the school leaders of the other three martial arts high schools.
"Students, first of all, on behalf of all the teachers and students of the four schools, I congratulate you on being able to stand here today."
"The fact that you are standing here today shows that you have stood out from at least hundreds of thousands of martial arts students and are the elite of the elite."
Today, two deacons from the Martial Arts Association have come here specifically to test your strength, in order to hone your martial arts skills and prepare you for entering the Genius Training Camp later.
Now, please welcome the two deacons of the Martial Arts Association to speak.
After the principal finished speaking, he stepped back.
One of the two deacons from the Martial Arts Association stepped forward.
"Congratulations, students, on entering the Genius Training Camp. You have now joined the ranks of martial arts geniuses on Blue Star."
My name is Li Xiaofeng, and I am the steward of the Provincial Martial Arts Association in charge of recruiting for the Genius Training Camp.
I'm here today simply to take the place of your martial arts instructors at the Genius Training Camp and get a preliminary assessment of your martial arts prowess.
In a moment, we will conduct a strength test and a blood circulation test for you on site.
"You don't need to be nervous. The fact that you're standing here today already qualifies you for the genius training camp. So just be yourself, don't hide your abilities or hold back."
"I won't take up any more of your time. Let's start testing your Qi and Blood levels now, and then immediately test your Strength level."
After speaking, Li Xiaofeng directed the school staff to disrupt the order of students from different schools.
Forty students were lined up in two rows, and each of them had their qi and blood and strength tested.
Chen Lie was in the middle of the first group, about ten people ahead of him.
"Dude, which martial arts high school are you from?"
At this moment, a student behind Chen Lie suddenly spoke to him.
"The top high school in the province," Chen Lie said.
"I'm from No. 1 High School in the city. This year, the first place winner in our city's martial arts competition had a Qi and Blood value of over 270. How many Qi and Blood values did you have in the martial arts competition at your provincial key high school?" the student asked.
Chen Lie replied, "A little over two hundred."
"Two hundred and a half? That's so low? Your class seems to be lacking. In previous years, the top high school in the province has always been a clear winner over the other three major martial arts high schools." Chen Lie hummed in agreement and said, "Maybe."
"However, I heard that two outstanding individuals emerged from the second-highest provincial high school this year."
The school's martial arts champion had a blood energy value of 350 calories, and even the second-place winner had a blood energy value of 330 calories.
Even if your top-ranked high school in the province maintains its usual standard, it certainly won't be as good as theirs," the student added.
"It's just a few dozen units of Qi and Blood; Qi and Blood doesn't mean anything," Chen Lie simply said.
"Dude, you're absolutely right!"
Let me tell you, one of my cousins is in the genius training camp. He told me that after entering the genius training camp, the instructors no longer really care about one's Qi and Blood stats.
What they value most is their strength.
Strength represents a person's future potential at the Qi and Blood stage.
In the genius training camp, unless there's a significant difference in their Qi and Blood values, instructors differentiate students based on their Qi and Strength values.
"The way the talent training camp identifies the good and the bad is correct; it should be like this."
Chen Lie knew that once the Qi and Blood value broke through three digits, the body's functions were greatly enhanced, and increasing the Qi and Blood value became very easy and simple. At this time, the level of Qi and Blood no longer reflected a person's aptitude, so the purity of Qi and Blood and the manifestation of Qi strength became crucial.
The student lowered his voice and said, "So I bought a banned drug on the black market in advance, which can temporarily boost one's strength."
However, after using this type of medicine, the body will be weak for a few days.
"There's such a thing?" Chen Lie asked. "It's just a preliminary investigation, isn't it unnecessary?"
"No need? Dude, if you ask me, you're still too naive. Do you think today is just a simple preliminary assessment?"
Today, the two deacons sent down by the Martial Arts Association were there to check our scores and present them to the instructors at the Genius Training Camp, so that they could determine how much importance they should place on us based on our performance.
The genius training camp is full of geniuses, and the competition is ten times fiercer than when you were in school.
You can be far ahead in school, but can you still stay ahead in a place like a gifted training camp where there are geniuses everywhere?
If you make a bad first impression on the instructors at the gifted youth training camp, then you're doomed.
Chen Lie hadn't expected there to be so many twists and turns in a small preliminary investigation, but he couldn't be bothered with them. He had to hide his strength; otherwise, his nearly seven times the strength would probably shake the entire planet.
"Dude, can you cover for me while I inject myself with a temporary stamina booster?" the student said again.
"Alright."
Chen Lie nodded.
Soon, the student behind Chen Lie finished injecting himself with the potion. He glanced at Chen Lie and said, "Dude, I still have one-fifth of my stamina potion left. Do you want to use it?"
"No need," Chen Lie shook his head.
"Are you sure you don't need it? This potion is worth over two million star coins on the black market." The student shook his head.
Chen Lie simply shook his head and remained silent.
Soon, the students in front of them had all finished testing their strength.
Meanwhile, in the second testing team next to them.
A strikingly beautiful girl entered the testing device.
The staff member next to her began reporting the test results: "Song Yixuan, a senior high school student from the second province, is 17 years old. Her blood energy value is 334.16 calories. Her strength value is 1108.88 jun. The values have been recorded."
The girl walked out of the scanning area of the detector, looked at Chen Lie, and smiled slightly.
"Wow, over 330 calories of Qi and Blood, and such a high Strength value, that's really awesome!"
The student behind Chen Lie sighed.
Soon, the people in front of Chen Lie finished their tests, and it was Chen Lie's turn.
Chen Lie stepped forward, and the staff reminded him, "Let's test your Qi and blood first."
Chen Lie arrived at the scanning area of the blood and qi detector and began scanning his blood and qi while standing still.
Soon, the detector announced the test results.
"Beep, test complete, blood energy level 253.71 calories!"
After the test was completed, Chen Lie walked out of the scanning area of the blood and qi detector.
"Come here to check your stamina!"
After Chen Lie finished testing his blood and qi, the staff directed him to the qi strength testing device.
Chen Lie stood in front of the target of the strength testing device. He secretly controlled his strength and pretended to punch the device with all his might.
With a loud bang, the pneumatic strength detector instantly displayed a set of values.
"937.63 jun (a unit of weight)".
"Um?"
Upon seeing the blood and qi values measured by Chen Lie, the martial arts association deacon who was supervising nearby stood up from his seat, his face showing surprise.
Meanwhile, the staff member standing nearby began reporting the test results to the supervising martial arts association deacon: "First Provincial Senior High School student Chen Lie, age 17, Qi and Blood value: 253.71 calories. Strength value: 937.63 jun. Values recorded."
