Chapter 346: Breaking the Delusion
After chatting for a while, Teacher Bai waited for Chen Chuan to put his coat back on, then walked back with him and asked, "Student Chen, are you going to watch the competition later?"
Chen Chuan shook his head and said, "I'm not in the mood anymore."
"That's true, you don't need to see this."
Teacher Bai smiled and said, "Then you can go back first. If you are interested in the future, you can come to my class. It's free of charge, of course. I can't say what I can teach you, but maybe I can give you some inspiration."
Chen Chuan said seriously: "Thank you, Teacher Bai." The masters of the third level all have their own set of things, which can be easily demonstrated to him in the academy.
Teacher Bai showed admiration in his eyes. To be honest, he was not a practical fighter. Wei Wusheng was very strong in fighting. He basically could not win if he went up. It would be good enough if he could barely maintain an undefeated record.
But Chen Chuan actually killed Wei Wusheng with his fists, not to mention that Chen Chuan had such strength and record at such a young age.
But even so, Chen Chuan remains very low-key and humble, which is very rare. To be fair, if he had this ability at that time, he would have been showing off a long time ago.
As for now, the more I know, the less I can boast.
He sighed for a moment and said, "Classmate Chen, see you later."
Chen Chuan nodded and said goodbye to Teacher Bai. After Teacher Bai left, he thought about it, walked to the side and picked up Wei Wusheng's hammer. This thing was his trophy and he had to take it back.
Although this thing can be considered as evidence, what Wei Wusheng did was not without a hammer to prove it.
The people from the processing bureau saw it, but said nothing. When they learned that he was going back, they specially arranged a car for him.
The higher-ups in the bureau were very satisfied with Chen Chuan's performance and were already considering how to reward him.
Because Chen Chuan was the reserve law enforcer of the Bureau in any case, this time he came forward to kill Wei Wu and also clearly displayed the whole process in front of the people in the central city, which almost won back the negative reputation of the Bureau in one fell swoop.
Of course, what is more important is that Chen Chuan is already a fighter of the third level. For such a fighter, he cannot be treated simply as a student.
Especially for someone like Chen Chuan who was trained in the national system and entered this stage before the age of 20, everyone can see that he has unlimited prospects and can go anywhere.
To exaggerate a bit, there are countless people vying for it, so we must find a way to reward and treat him, and we must give him enough, because only in this way can we prove that Chen Chuan ended Wei Wusheng's life under the arrangement of the processing bureau.
After getting in the car, Chen Chuan headed back towards the academy. He noticed a lot of voice messages on Jie Ping. He clicked on one of them and heard Wu Bei's excited voice, "Brother Chen, that's amazing! So amazing! You know, at that time, I wanted to hit myself a few times..."
This time, Wu Bei rarely saw the third-level fighting scene. This time, he took advantage of the frequency adjustment of the arena and watched it from beginning to end from the first perspective. It was so exciting.
After listening to this, Chen Chuan clicked on another message and found it was from Pan Xiaode: "Mr. Chen, haven't we already fought once? I must fight you again when we reach the third level."
Then, some people who had contacted him and were acquainted with him left messages, including Zou Handan, saying that the Secret Snake Cult had a service program for third-level fighters and was willing to provide him with several free services.
At this time, he suddenly found that a large sum of money had been deposited into his account.
At the same time, I found Tan Zhi’s message:
"Student Chen, this bounty is for you. Because you killed Wei Wusheng, the team offering the bounty unanimously decided to give you the money. Also... the last time we encountered Wei Wusheng, it was you, Student Chen, who saved us, right?"
Chen Chuan sent a message back, saying, "Tan, I was just trying to save myself."
After a while, Tan Zhi sent another message back saying, "No matter what, I have to thank you, classmate Chen."
When Chen Chuan returned, the entire process of him hammering Wei Wusheng to death was not interrupted by the stop of the broadcast in the venue. Instead, it was recorded and continuously transmitted to the outside through various channels, and the influence was gradually spreading.
Inside a certain sentry post, An Cheng watched the whole process in a daze. He couldn't describe what he felt. Chen Chuan became a fighter of the third limit, and the spot was vacant. He would no longer compete with him, but he always felt a sense of frustration, a frustration of losing before the competition even started.
At this moment, a call suddenly rang from the network. He took a look and answered it, "Sun Rao?"
Sun Rao's voice came out: "Did you see it too?"
"I saw it." An Cheng replied.
Sun Rao said: "Don't think too much, some people are destined to be different."
An Cheng was a little surprised and asked in surprise: "Are you comforting me?"
"No, I'm just asking you to accept the reality."
An Cheng grinned, but thought in his heart that this was normal.
Sun Rao added, "It's not a bad thing to recognize it early. The bureau will probably arrange a formal position for Chen, and they might even find a newcomer from the academy to replace him. Don't let the newcomer surpass you again."
An Cheng sneered, "Will I be surpassed by a newcomer?"
However, after the call ended, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Because talent is something that cannot be explained by logic. Although he spoke very confidently in front of Sun Rao, if someone like Chen Chuan came along, he would really doubt himself.
Central City, somewhere in the underground area.
In a two-story building built with scrap metal and simple planks, Lu Ke was wiping some exercise equipment under an old lighting fixture.
At this moment, an irregular projection screen outside the window suddenly lit up.
He couldn't help but be attracted by it, so he took the things to the window and pulled the curtains up a little.
As residents of the lower city, even if they have some credentials, it is still impossible for them to directly obtain news from the central city through normal channels, because the central city will shield the underground location.
But this does not mean that the lower city and the upper city are completely isolated. Some important information will be transferred in through certain technical means by some people who resonate with it.
Many of these resonators serve the gangs and groups in the underground city, but some also selflessly share what they see with the people in the underground city.
These people call themselves the Lamplighters, and ironically, no one in Central City intervenes to control their actions, but they are often hunted by fellow Downtown gangs and the Group Awareness.
For example, this one should be like this.
Lu Ke was just curious at first. He wasn't really interested in what was happening in the central city above. But after seeing the specific situation and the people in the scene, he suddenly became excited. "Master, it's Brother Chen! It's Brother Chen!"
There was a knocking sound outside the room, and Yu Gang walked in. He was leaning on a crutch. One of his feet had been replaced by a limb implant, but the other foot was still empty. He also only had one arm, and the other sleeve was still empty.
He came to the window, looked at the scene on the screen, and said with emotion: "It's him."
Lu Ke said excitedly, "Senior Sister always didn't believe what I said about how great Brother Chen was. Now she won't say I was bragging anymore."
He watched the scene where Chen Chuan casually deflected a flying car, and the exaggerated speed and destructive power during the fight, and said in a daze, "Master, is Brother Chen's destructive power... the third limit?"
Yu Gang said in a deep voice: "It's the third limit, there's no mistake about it." He looked upwards and added in his mind that it might not be an ordinary third limit.
Lu Ke put his hand on the wall and said, "I want to show this to my senior sister." Then he put down the thing in his hand and ran downstairs.
After being sent back to school by car, Chen Chuan went back to the dormitory to wash up and change his clothes. He decided to go to Motie Mountain later.
Because even after achieving the third limit, he still felt that there were some questions in his heart that needed to be answered.
Half an hour later, he went out again and drove a Gard car to Cao's manor.
Uncle Ding's attitude towards him this time was completely different from before. If before he just treated him like an ordinary guest, only maintaining basic courtesy and even a little distant, this time he was very respectful to him and his attitude was also a little more enthusiastic.
Once inside, he met Cao Guiqi and was invited to sit down. Cao Guiqi asked Uncle Ding to make tea and then said, "I just watched your fight. You've only just reached the third level, and you've already shown such performance. Your talent is even higher than I thought."
Chen Chuan said, "Senior, although I have entered this stage, I still have more questions in my mind. I would like to ask you for advice on how to proceed."
Cao Guiqi said, "No rush. We have time today, so we can talk slowly. You broke through the third limit using the old methods. So, are you familiar with some of the old-time sayings about combat training?"
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "One of my teachers once explained that, in the words of the old times, the first level is called 'accumulating the true seed', and the second level is called 'guarding the important destiny'."
Cao Guiqi nodded and said, "Well said. Your teacher clearly understands the old ways. When it comes to the third level, the old saying is 'breaking delusion'!"
He said in a deep voice: "When fighters reach this level, those with talent can see what ordinary people have never seen, hear what ordinary people have never heard, and feel what ordinary people have never felt.
Some of these often subverted conventional wisdom, and were therefore viewed by ordinary people in the past as those who communicated with the gods. This is also why many fighters of the past were associated with esoteric sects."
When Chen Chuan heard this, his heart moved slightly. He suddenly thought of the strange scene he had seen before. Obviously, this was it.
