Unlike the Martial Arts Department, the Martial Arts Association is a global organization with branches all over the world, including four locations in Jingcheng alone.
As Shen Qian walked out of the Martial Arts Association's branch in Beicheng, he felt that the world was different now.
The reason stemmed from the badge with magnetic card authentication that he was holding in his hand.
The badge is made of bronze and features the ancient Chinese character "武" (wu, meaning martial arts) in the center, symbolizing the formal identity of a martial artist before the war.
Once you advance to the intermediate martial artist level before sinking, you can exchange your badge for a silver one, then gold, platinum, diamond...
"Explosive power 150.63Kg, instantaneous speed 9.96s."
This data was obtained from a test conducted half an hour before the sinking.
He felt a great sense of accomplishment before sinking, because this time he didn't summon his system daddy.
Of course, Shen Qian had not actually reached the level of a beginner martial artist. His physique was equivalent to that of an ordinary person with an explosive strength of about 145 kg.
After learning the systematic way of exerting force, he was able to unleash even greater power.
Although it's far from being as perfect as the system, it's more than enough to pass the certification of a beginner martial artist.
To be on the safe side, Shen Qian even went to the North City branch of the Martial Arts Association for verification. Although there were countless strong people in North City, a seventeen-year-old beginner martial artist still attracted a lot of attention from the staff.
However, as long as you're in the North City, everyone can understand it.
...The only pity is that the big-eyed girl who helped him register before the sinking didn't get his contact information. I guess she was worried that he was trying to climb too high?
He clicked his tongue in regret before sinking.
Having obtained the martial artist certification badge is not enough. Before sinking, you need to make another trip to the Martial Arts Department, because the Martial Arts Association only handles certification, while the Martial Arts Department is the real source of income.
So Shen Qian took a taxi to the headquarters of the Jingcheng Martial Arts Bureau, located in the center of Jingcheng City.
Compared to the martial arts association branches tucked away on street corners, the headquarters of the martial arts bureau in front of us is much more impressive. In the city center where land is extremely valuable, the Jingcheng Martial Arts Bureau occupies a lakeside area. Around the shore of Jingcheng Lake, there are more than a dozen buildings of varying heights, all belonging to the Jingcheng Martial Arts Bureau.
The martial arts department in China holds great power and influence. It not only manages all Chinese martial artists, but also has a corresponding department for everything related to martial arts.
Whether it's military affairs, education, science and technology, medicine, diplomacy... everything revolves around the Martial Arts Department.
There's no way around it, because this is a world where martial arts are the foundation.
Today, Shen Qian, who has officially registered as a martial artist, walked into this place with his bank card, which was eagerly awaiting payment.
The Martial Arts Bureau was so large that Chen Qian wandered around inside, asking for directions several times, before finally finding the Martial Arts Logistics and Welfare Department.
After queuing, filling out forms, and verifying his identity, half an hour later, Shen Qian walked out satisfied after successfully linking his bank card.
According to the woman who just mentioned it, the first subsidy payment would be deposited into his account within three working days.
"If I count the time, my birthday was just in January, which means I can still get 10,000 yuan for 10 months. The road to a better life finally has a goal."
He was secretly pleased, but when he came to his senses, he found himself lost again.
Since he had nothing else to do, Shen Qian was too lazy to ask for directions and just wandered around the Martial Arts Bureau aimlessly.
A moment later, Shen Qian suddenly saw a familiar face appear in front of him.
They weren't really acquaintances; Shen Qian had only met him once, but he remembered asking for a business card from him.
Canglang Pharmaceutical, Ding Anbai!
Ding Anbai, dressed impeccably, walked with a group of equally impeccably dressed people, heading towards a courtyard in the southwest. They all seemed to be wearing some kind of identification badge, but it was too far away to see clearly at first glance.
Since it was such a coincidence, Shen Qian decided to go and check it out.
He had always harbored a vague idea in his heart: to monetize the formula for the "Physical Fitness Enhancement". After using Lao Wang as a guinea pig last time, Shen Qian became even more certain that the "Physical Fitness Enhancement" would absolutely crush all existing physical enhancement enhancements on the market.
Unfortunately, due to various concerns, Shen Qian was unable to make up his mind. If he could have more contact with Ding Anbai and understand his character and background, it would have been more helpful for him to make the right judgment.
Shen Qian arrived at the courtyard and glanced up.
"Martial Arts Medical and Pharmaceutical Research Institute".
This is the plaque hanging at the entrance of the courtyard.
Two banners were also hanging nearby. One read, "Warmly welcome experts from Beidu to Jingcheng Medical Institute," and the other read, "Grandly celebrate the successful convening of the 7th Jingcheng Medical Industry Summit."
Shen Qian glanced through the doorway and saw four young ladies dressed in cheongsams and two imposing security guards standing there.
"Hello, please show your identification." A security guard reached out and stopped Shen Qian, who was walking inside.
"I'm from Canglang Pharmaceuticals, I forgot to bring it," Shen said without changing his expression.
The security guard frowned, about to speak, when Shen Qian called out, "Mr. Ding!"
Ding Anbai, who had just followed the crowd inside, turned around when he heard the shout. He was taken aback when he saw Shen Qian and showed a surprised expression.
Huh, he seems to remember me. I really am a handsome young man who easily leaves a deep impression on others...
Of course, regardless of whether Ding Anbai remembered him or not, Shen Qian had already strode over, and the security guards did not stop him again.
"you……"
As Shen Qian walked in, Ding Anbai had just opened his mouth when Shen Qian coughed, "Mr. Ding, if you don't mind, shall we walk a little further in?"
Ding Anbai was taken aback. He glanced at the security guard who was still staring at them, then understood. He chuckled but didn't expose Shen Qian. He turned and walked inside.
"You knew I was coming to the summit today, so you waited here on purpose?" Ding Anbai asked casually.
"No, I came to the Martial Arts Bureau on some business and happened to see Mr. Ding, so I came over to say hello," Shen Qian shook his head and said truthfully.
Ding Anbai remained noncommittal, only shaking his head inwardly. What could a seventeen-year-old student like you possibly do at the Martial Arts Bureau?
However, given his status, he was too lazy to argue with Shen Qian, and his expression became even more indifferent.
Just as Shen Qian was thinking about how to start a conversation, Ding Anbai suddenly stopped. After everyone around him had moved on, he turned around and looked directly at Shen Qian.
"Young man, I think I know what you're thinking. To be honest, I didn't dislike you before. After all, I was once that age too. I also came from a poor background, and everything I have now is the result of my hard work step by step."
There are no shortcuts in life.
"One last piece of advice..."
Ding Anbai shook his head, looked at Shen Qian who seemed too shocked to speak, and said calmly:
"One should not underestimate oneself, but one should not be overly ambitious either. That's all I have to say. Go back now, and don't bother looking for me anymore. It will only deepen my dislike for you."
After saying that, Ding Anbai turned and left.
Chen Qian: "???"
