"Captain, how long is their training period?"
Qingsheng glanced at the two people who were making strange noises under Xiang Qing's forbidden ability, and asked them with a bit of pity.
"Two months? What, you want to practice some more?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Rong smiled at Qing Sheng.
"No, no, no, I was just asking. Okay, two months is fine! The team is short-handed right now, I can't leave my post without permission. I'll definitely do it next time, next time!"
Upon seeing this, Qingsheng quickly waved his hands and shook his head vigorously.
Just kidding, let's do it again. He's celebrating his birthday, he's not a masochist!
"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that the enemy is too fierce!"
Qingsheng silently prayed for the two of them in her heart.
When Chi Chen and Lin Bai heard that this situation would last for two months, their lips trembled as if they were about to lodge a protest.
Then, with a sudden jerk, he fainted, which shows the inhuman torture they endured during those six hours this afternoon!
Even someone like Chi Chen, who had endured years of suffering, was finding it hard to bear.
"It's already broken after just one day? Looks like we need to increase the intensity, otherwise how will it ever be able to handle anything on its own in the future!"
Seeing this, Zhang Rong frowned slightly and muttered something to himself.
At that moment, even Chen Sheng, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but shiver.
Yes, this is the man known as the Blue-Faced Asura!
The other three cast another pitying glance at the unconscious Chi Chen and Lin Bai. If they were to cover the two with a white cloth now, they could start worshiping immediately.
...
Nearly two months later, in the underground training room.
In the center of the training field, Chi Chen stood shirtless, covered in sweat, revealing a gruesome wound on his chest.
Chi Chen's originally somewhat thin body was now much more muscular. Although his upper body muscles were not exaggerated, they looked very powerful.
"Bang! Bang!"
Chi Chen's expression was cold and stern. He swung two more leg whips at the tall and strong figure in front of him. Chi Chen's leg movements were so fast that they left several afterimages in the air.
Moreover, the explosive power contained in those two leg whips made the figure in front of him raise an eyebrow.
The person fighting against Chi Chen was Zhang Rong, the captain of the Green-Faced Squad.
Faced with the rapidly approaching leg whip, Zhang Rong also quickly raised one arm to block.
Chi Chen's calf collided with Zhang Rong's arm. Zhang Rong was actually pushed several meters by the force of Chi Chen's leg, while Chi Chen also felt a burning pain in his calf, as if he had kicked a hard iron plate.
No, even if it were a sheet of iron, I should be able to kick it through when I've activated my power!
However, Zhang Rong's arm was completely unharmed, demonstrating just how terrifying the captain's control over the use of strength was.
"Wow, that's incredibly fierce!"
Not far away, Lin Bai lay on the ground, exhausted like a dog, watching the battle between Chi Chen and Zhang Rong. Lin Bai felt that he had been completely abused by Chen Sheng earlier.
But Chi Chen was actually able to fight Zhang Rong to a standstill. Even though Zhang Rong suppressed his power to the same level as Chi Chen, the gap between himself and Chi Chen was still too great.
However, when Lin Bai recalled how he had almost blown up the entire training room, he felt slightly better.
"Fortunately, my Annihilation ability is no joke either!"
Chen Sheng, standing to the side, also had a complicated look in his eyes. In just two short months, Chi Chen had grown to this level.
While this is largely due to the strange energy within Chi Chen's body, everyone has witnessed Chi Chen's perseverance and progress over the past two months.
Aside from complaining a couple of times about Zhang Rong being inhuman during the first two days, later on, Chi Chen was the one chasing after Zhang Rong for extra training every day.
That action completely stunned everyone else, making them almost wonder if Chi Chen had become a masochist due to the suffering he had endured over the past five years.
Lin Bai, in particular, initially refused to practice with Chi Chen, but when he saw Chi Chen gradually widening the gap between them, Lin Bai gritted his teeth and frantically pestered Chen Sheng to practice with him.
All the growth that Chi Chen and Lin Bai have achieved in the past two months can be said to be the result of their own hard work and dedication.
After all, at Zhang Rong's instruction, these two devilish instructors were really going all out to torture him!
"Indeed, your control over your power is now extremely precise, and you can also maintain it for much longer!"
Finally, after another twenty minutes or so, the two players on the field gradually stopped.
Chi Chen lay on the ground, his sweat soaking a large area of the ground, and he was weak and powerless.
He is now able to fight for up to forty minutes at a time, using all the power he can muster!
According to Zhang Rong's assessment of his combat strength, Chi Chen can easily defeat any ability user below the Solid Realm unless he encounters a forbidden ability that is extremely effective against him!
This is what Chi Chen has gained by risking half his life over the past two months!
"It would be great if the weapon's capabilities could be improved as well!"
Chi Chen recalled Qing Sheng shaking his head repeatedly over the past two months, and couldn't help but feel a little troubled. As long as he didn't activate his power state, no matter what gun he used, it seemed to grow crooked in his hands.
However, after two months of training, Chi Chen was already a master swordsman even without being in a state of high alert. It was as if his body had memorized the feeling of man and sword becoming one after he entered that state.
As for firearms, Chi Chen could only think that he might have had a grudge against firearms in his past life.
...
"Captain, you mean you're going to Shangjing District too?"
Inside the fried chicken shop, Chen Sheng glanced at the departing figures of Chi Chen and Lin Bai, then looked at Zhang Rong with some disbelief.
"Hmm! The Secret Archives in Shangjing District contain many records that are not available to the outside world. I want to see if I can find any records about the mysterious scar on Chi Chen's chest. Also, I have a vague feeling that after two months of silence, they are about to make a move against Chi Chen again!"
Zhang Rong's expression was somewhat solemn. In the past two months, in addition to training Chi Chen and Lin Bai, they had also been searching for the manipulator behind the ghost horn that appeared that night.
But the other party was more cautious than they had imagined, and Zhang Rong had a feeling that the people behind them were definitely not just the forces of Luan Ning District.
Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng said no more. However, he also understood how much Zhang Rong valued Chi Chen, since the captain actually harbored deep resentment towards the Shangjing District.
This time, he was actually willing to go to the capital for Chi Chen's sake. Chen Sheng understood that this was not only because Zhang Rong valued Chi Chen's mysterious abilities, but also because of the mystery surrounding him.
More importantly, Zhang Rong recognized the character that Chi Chen had shown over the past two months.
After all, the Green-Faced Asura, who once refused the invitation to join the strongest secret-slaying team in the capital region, never valued talent the most when choosing people.
"Alright, you stay here, I should catch up!"
Zhang Rong stepped out of the fried chicken shop and walked in the direction where Chi Chen and Lin Bai had left. Today was the first time those two newcomers were carrying out a mission alone, and as the captain, he naturally wanted to witness their performance firsthand.
...
On a street in the Luanning District, Chi Chen and Lin Bai ran towards a dark alley.
"Chi Chen, are you nervous?"
While running quickly, Lin Bai looked ahead and asked.
"good!"
Chi Chen replied without any change in expression.
Seeing this, Lin Bai's tension eased slightly.
After all, this was their first mission, and according to Chen Sheng, the mysterious creature was a Radiant Realm being, or even possibly a Solid Realm being.
Although Lin Bai was confident in his growth over the past two months, he still couldn't help feeling a little nervous this time without any veteran teammates by his side.
However, seeing the calm Chi Chen beside him, Lin Bai gradually calmed down as well.
"arrive!"
Chi Chen and Lin Bai arrived at an abandoned, dilapidated factory, which was the hiding place of the creature known as the Claw Demon.
A common characteristic of the mysterious is that they prefer to operate at night because their power is stronger in the darkness. Many people speculate that this is due to the red moon in the sky.
During the day, they almost always find a dark place to hide.
However, this condition only applies to mystical beings below the Ascension Realm.
"Let's go! It's time to test the results of our training!"
Chi Chen and Lin Bai exchanged a glance, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes.
Today marks the beginning of their true journey into another world!
