No one is perfect! Many warriors around the world can rapidly improve their physical fitness.
For example, during the Great Nirvana Period, it took only a few years for Hong, the world's strongest man, and Thor, the second strongest man, to break through and become planet-level powerhouses. Their growth to such formidable levels in just a few years suggests that there are indeed many super geniuses in the world. Of course, this doesn't imply that Wei Wen is any less impressive than them!
However, mastering micro-level body skills hinges on one's comprehension and understanding. Wei Wen's physical fitness is improving at an extraordinary rate, clearly showcasing his genetic gifts. The fact that he could reach the micro level at the age of 18 speaks volumes about his talent.
Ordinary geniuses like Zhou Zhengyong, the God of War, might not be overly concerned with someone like Wei Wen. Still, those who aspire to join the 'Elite Training Camp' are highly sought after, and even Zhou Zhengyong is 'thirsty for talent.' The 'Elite Training Camp,' also known as the 'God of War Reserve,' is the premier training base for warriors worldwide.
However, the 'Elite Training Camp' only recruits ten students globally each year, and those who gain entry are undoubtedly super geniuses. In the original work, Luo Feng, at 19 years old, had a junior warrior-level physique and achieved the third level of swordsmanship with the "Nine Levels of Thunder Sword," which earned him a chance at the assessment.
While Wei Wen might not seem as accomplished as Luo Feng was at that age, there are not many exceptional talents with both intelligence and innate ability like Wei Wen in the world. With Wei Wen's talent and potential, even if he cannot enter the elite training camp, he would certainly qualify for the basic training camp.
With a few years of dedicated effort in the basic training camp, graduation would easily put him at the God of War level. Should Wei Wen's fortune align and he manages to enter the elite training camp, he would undoubtedly become a God of War—not just any God of War, but an extraordinary one.
Given that Wei Wen hails from Jiangnan Base City, he represents the performance of the Jiangnan Extreme General Hall. How could Zhou Zhengyong not pay attention to him?
"Lao Bai, are you certain about what Jiang Nian reported regarding Wei Wen?" Zhou Zhengyong asked, a hint of expectation creeping into his voice.
"I know what Jiang Nian is like. Besides, if he were to lie, we could find out later. There's no reason for him to fabricate anything," the white-haired old man replied, shaking his head slightly.
"Good. Have you arranged for Jiang Nian to bring him to headquarters?" Zhou Zhengyong pressed, his anticipation growing.
"Yes, I've taken care of it. Go and prepare now. I'll conduct an assessment and record everything about this kid later," Zhou Zhengyong instructed.
"Understood, President. I'll get ready immediately," the white-haired old man said respectfully.
Instructor Jiang Nian used his privileges as a warrior to take Wei Wen directly to the main urban area of Jiangnan City via train. An hour later, they arrived at Jiangnan Base City, one of only six base cities in China.
Afterward, they took a special bus from the Extreme Martial Arts Gym to the Ultimate Martial Arts Gym Headquarters.
"This is the Ultimate Martial Arts General Hall, the headquarters of Ultimate Martial Arts in our Jiangnan base city," Jiang Nian explained simply. "Come with me!"
Upon entering the headquarters, Jiang Nian began to introduce Wei Wen to various aspects of the facility and the strength of the warriors.
Warriors are categorized into levels: warrior level, war general level, and war god level. Each level is further divided into elementary, intermediate, and advanced, resulting in a total of nine distinct tiers.
However, the so-called warriors, generals, and gods of war are titles given by people on Earth. Outside of Earth, these nine levels are referred to as apprentice level one through nine.
Above the apprentice level are the planet-level beings, known as parliamentarians on Earth. There are probably only a few dozen of them, and they currently represent the pinnacle of strength on the planet.
As they walked, Jiang Nian provided Wei Wen with a general introduction to the Extreme Martial Arts General Hall, leading them to their destination on the 31st floor of the headquarters building.
"Ding!"
The elevator doors opened, and Wei Wen followed Jiang Nian into the expansive martial arts training hall before him. As he stepped inside, Wei Wen's gaze was immediately drawn to a man clad in white training clothes.
From his understanding of the plot, this man should be Zhou Zhengyong, a mid-level God of War.
"Is this the one?" The white-haired old man smiled upon spotting Jiang Nian. "Jiang Nian, is this Wei Wen?"
"That's right," Jiang Nian confirmed with a nod.
Hearing Jiang Nian's words, Zhou Zhengyong, who had been sitting cross-legged, stood up to scrutinize Wei Wen.
"I've heard that you utilized micro-level body skills during the quasi-martial arts examination?" Zhou Zhengyong inquired, his primary interest lying in Wei Wen's understanding of combat techniques.
"Yes," Wei Wen replied confidently.
"Very good. Your situation is special, and you have every hope of entering the basic training camp. So you must give your all in this test," Zhou Zhengyong stated seriously.
"Old Bai, you can begin the assessment. First, check how strong he is after cultivating his genetic power," Zhou Zhengyong instructed.
"Understood," the white-haired old man replied, activating a camera nearby to record Wei Wen's evaluation.
Wei Wen didn't waste any time. After taking a deep breath, he quickly approached the boxing strength testing machine. Jiang Nian, Uncle Bai, and Chairman Zhou Zhengyong all watched him with eager anticipation.
With a sudden surge of power, Wei Wen unleashed a powerful punch on the testing machine.
"Pong!"
The sound of impact echoed as his fist struck the boxing target. The target shook momentarily before a line of data flashed on the display screen: "6406kg."
"6406kg?" Jiang Nian gasped, turning to stare at Wei Wen as if he were an otherworldly creature.
According to the previous assessment during the quasi-martial arts examination, Wei Wen's punching strength was around 1000 kilograms. Now, after cultivating his genetic energy for the first time, his strength had skyrocketed by an astonishing 5000 kilograms—an unbelievable feat.
It was the first time he absorbed genetic energy; few geniuses like Luo Feng had managed to increase their punching power by 2000 kilograms in the entire Jiangnan Base City. Individuals like Wei Wen were truly rare in the world.
"It seems that another monster has emerged in our Jiangnan Base City," Zhou Zhengyong remarked, astonished. "Let's proceed to test your speed and nerve response time."
Wei Wen stepped out of the red circle of the neural response test machine and let out a sigh of relief upon seeing that the results had displayed normally.
"Fortunately, the chain didn't slip at the critical moment," Jiang Nian, the instructor beside him, also relaxed. Psychological pressure often hindered people from displaying their true strength during crucial moments.
Soon, Wei Wen's final test results were revealed:
Boxing Strength: 6406 kg
Speed: 80 m/s
Nerve Reaction Test: Excellent at the advanced warrior level, passing at the junior warrior level.
"The results of the three physical fitness tests, especially your nerve response speed, surpassed the others," Zhou Zhengyong remarked with a smile.
"Jiang Nian, you deserve a lot of credit for discovering such a genius in Yi'an District."
"The main reason is that this young man, Wei Wen, has worked hard and possesses both talent and understanding," Jiang Nian replied, clearly pleased.
"Wei Wen, given your improved strength and your performance in micro-level body skills, our Extreme Martial Arts Gym can definitely allow you to join the martial arts program in advance," Zhou Zhengyong stated with a smile.
"Rest assured, the conditions offered by our Extreme Martial Arts Gym will not be low. You will at least secure a place in the basic training camp!"
"As for other benefits... Lao Bai, go and draw up a contract, following the usual terms... No, make some modifications."
"Wei Wen's startup capital will be increased to 10 billion, and the free cheat code limit for selecting any movement, guidance, and attack methods will also rise to 10 billion. Any additional costs will be covered by me."
Given Wei Wen's performance level, he normally wouldn't qualify for such a substantial startup capital. However, the sudden improvement in his abilities clearly indicated that Chairman Zhou Zhengyong held Wei Wen in high regard.
"Thank you, President, for your support in my cultivation!" Wei Wen expressed gratefully.
"When you reach the level of God of War, you'll realize that this amount is trivial to me as a God of War," Zhou Zhengyong replied with a calm smile.
"But remember, while talent and understanding are crucial, they are only part of the equation. You must work harder in the future to go even further."
"Additionally, if you can continue to show significant improvement during this time... perhaps I can even secure you a spot in the elite training camp."
"Don't worry, Supervisor! I will definitely become a God of War in the future, and I'll work even harder during this period!" Wei Wen declared, exuding confidence.
"It's only July 2nd, and there's still a month before the actual combat assessment. Is it possible for me to buy cheat books in advance to practice and improve my strength?"
Wei Wen had developed a strong phobia of lacking strength ever since he gained recognition. Regardless of whether his talent was sufficient, he planned to make every effort to enhance his abilities.
Moreover, he had another reason for wanting to obtain warrior status ahead of time: the opportunity to train Luo Feng and, in turn, indirectly bolster his own strength.
However, Wei Wen did not anticipate that his desire would lead to Luo Feng receiving warrior status early.
"This is easy," Zhou Zhengyong replied with a nod. "With your current strength, you can easily pass the actual combat assessment. I can use my authority as president to grant you the status of an Extreme Martial Arts Master in advance."
Zhou Zhengyong's willingness to help was evident; he believed in Wei Wen's potential and didn't see it as troublesome. By allowing Wei Wen to obtain warrior status early, he would have the freedom to purchase secret books and body skills.
"Thank you, President! I won't let you down!" Wei Wen replied, determination shining in his eyes. With this new opportunity, he felt even more motivated to enhance his skills and reach the level of God of War.
