With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 408 Reunion with Lu Ang: Special Battle Merits and the Great Sage's Teachings!

There's not much of a problem with the general public, influenced by the "Lu Zu" faith statue.

It will only consume more mental energy, but it will not damage the foundation of the body.

The government subsequently provided corresponding subsidies for this incident.

However, the demonic forces that own the Divine Martial Arts School are not fools; if they drag this out any longer, they will eventually realize what's going on.

There's no time to lose; things could change. A tight net has already been set up around Fucheng. But the demonic forces might use the people as leverage, leading to a desperate, all-or-nothing situation.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ang nodded and said:

"Tomorrow, I think. A few days ago, a little guy's information was going through the process of being entered into the national talent pool."

I just checked, and the data entry was successful. We can publish it tomorrow.

"understood."

Commander Qin seemed to be deep in thought.

Judging from what Commander Lu said, this mission seemed to be specifically designed to "open a back door" for someone.
He couldn't help but ask:

"May I ask who this young genius is who guards this place?"

He suspected that this person, who was recently added to the national talent pool, was...

Besides being exceptionally talented, he is also a descendant of a Heavenly King or even the Great Sage.

Otherwise, why would Commander Lu act in this way?

Lu Ang laughed;
“You’ve definitely heard his name before. He’s from your hometown of Yong’an. This guy is often on TV.”

"Could it be Meng Chuan?"

"Exactly."

Commander Qin was somewhat puzzled.

Meng Chuan is the most prominent new martial arts talent in the area he manages.

He naturally knew the other party's name.

Moreover, they also have information on Meng Chuan.

The other party comes from an ordinary family, not a martial arts family.

But unexpectedly, he actually had some connection with Garrison Commander Lu.

This deepened his impression of Meng Chuan.

Finally, Commander Qin secretly made a mental note of this matter, intending to take better care of this young man in the future.

After all, a promising talent who can be given preferential treatment by the Martial Arts King has unlimited potential.

Two o'clock in the morning, Mount Li.

The martial arts arena area of ​​the United Nations University was still brightly lit.

Lu Zhuxiao looked at Meng Chuan, who was standing casually opposite him, and was on high alert.

"After this kid advanced and mastered the power of martial arts, the magnetic field around him is terrifying."

Momentum is the foundation of martial arts momentum.

Unbeknownst to him, Meng Chuan's aura had already been boosted twice before he broke through the second limit.

Now that I have mastered the power of martial arts, I am naturally much stronger than ordinary people.

Especially when it was displayed externally, it gave Lu Zhuxiao the illusion of "a deep abyss like a prison, and a pressure as vast as the sea".

The more relaxed Meng Chuan's arms became, the more tense Lu Zhuxiao became.

Because, in his perception, a domineering and unquestionable aura suddenly emanated from Meng Chuan.

Moreover, he clearly heard Meng Chuan's heart and lungs start to work, and the loud "thump-thump" sound entered his ears.

He knew that Meng Chuan was beginning to combine martial arts techniques with boxing, assuming a stance.

Once a martial arts master reaches the second limit, their body will transmit corresponding information to the outside world as soon as they circulate their internal energy.

Just like a person from the Xingyi School who is proficient in the element of fire, when regulating the fire in their heart.

Standing outside in the icy and snowy landscape, it felt like being surrounded by a giant furnace, melting the snow and dissolving the solid ice.

This is the rudimentary form of the "artistic conception" that uses one's own martial arts to alter celestial phenomena on a small scale.

Meng Chuan adopted the starting stance of the Eight Extremes of the Shaking River, and slowly approached with his feet stepping on the leaping waves.

The eight extremes of the Dao, the great Dao is simple.

There are no complicated or flashy "attack effects," just arm vibration and force, a long punch straight forward.

The Hammer of Surging Waves!
He threw a punch at Master Lu's chest, and the force of his punch created a terrifying gust of wind that spun violently in the air.

Like a strangling vortex of energy, like a vacuum being drawn out, the air almost completely blocked out.

In an instant, most of the arena was plunged into a vacuum.

Lu Zhuxiao felt the suffocating sensation and suddenly woke up!
The fist came hurtling towards his chest, its terrifying force like a meteorite falling from the sky.

With terrifying acceleration, it crashed heavily to the ground.

This feeling is something you can't avoid or resist.

Lu Zhuxiao felt helpless.

"Xiao Meng has only just reached the second level of cultivation, yet he can already wield the power of martial arts to this extent."

He had no choice but to meet the punch head-on, his rounded arm and pointed hand, the knuckles gleaming with a golden light.

Driven by the full force of his true energy, it gathered all the power of martial arts, like an incomparably sharp tiger-headed spear.

Bang!
Even from just one punch, Lu Zhuxiao felt extremely uneasy.

Blood began to seep from the web of his hand, and his two legs bore most of the impact, causing his tendons to twist and throb with pain.

"Fortunately, at least it blocked it for a moment."

The thought vanished in an instant. Lu Zhuxiao took a deep breath, mustered all his strength, and charged towards Meng Chuan.
Back in the courtyard, Meng Chuan practiced standing meditation.

Just now, Master Lu unleashed a burst of power, relying on his true skills and killing moves, and finally managed to break through his own black membrane.

He was merely using the Eight Extremes Technique, and after a dozen or so collisions, Master Lu couldn't take it anymore and called for a stop.

Meng Chuan felt the intensity of the sparring was even lower than his warm-up routine before boxing practice.
He was filled with emotion, realizing how strong he had become without even realizing it.

Looking back, when I first entered the preparatory high school at the United Nations University.

If it weren't for his master, Master Lu's second-limit strength would have been far beyond his comprehension.

Later, when he entered the university, Professor Lu stood up for him.

The dazzling golden light emanating from the spear tip was equally unstoppable. Things are different now.

In Lu Shi's words:
"They've grown up, their wings have hardened."

After thinking about it, Meng Chuan felt quite regretful.

Having just finished sparring, he shared some tips on stance training with Master Lu based on his own situation, hoping they would be helpful.

Meng Chuan also hoped that the other party could break through the third level as soon as possible and advance to the level of martial arts master.

Four hours passed, and dawn broke.

After finishing his standing meditation and preparing to complete his mental cultivation, Meng Chuan bid farewell and set off to "study abroad".

At eight o'clock in the morning, the phone on the table vibrated, drawing Meng Chuan's attention out of his body.

"Special concern, who called me?"

Meng Chuan was somewhat surprised.

As his reputation in the Great Chu grew, he received countless phone calls every day.

Some people wanted him to be their spokesperson, others wanted to get to know him, and still others were selling their houses and cars.
Because martial arts are demanding, Meng Chuan specifically set up a do-not-disturb mode.

Only a handful of people, including family, teachers, and friends, can make the call.

He answered, and a long-unheard, unrestrained voice entered his ears:

[Meng Chuan, this is Lu Ang. Congratulations on your successful selection into the National Talent Pool.]

Down the mountain, in Yong'an, there is a private club.

Meng Chuan sat opposite Lu Angtian, his posture upright, listening to the other party explain matters related to the "National Talent Pool".

The two figures looked remarkably alike from a distance.

In his normal state, without being released or compressed, Meng Chuan's body is a full two meters and three or four meters tall.

Lu Ang was larger, like a magnified version of Meng Chuan.

As expected of a man as strong as a bear, he's even bigger than me!
He heard that on that day, King Lu used the [Dharma Body Unity] technique in Ling Nu's lair.

Its body transformed into an ancient celestial bear, standing a thousand meters tall, truly deserving of the title "Dharma Form of Heaven and Earth".

After listening to the other party's explanation, Meng Chuan finally understood.

From the moment I found the Temple, I had already passed the talent pool assessment.

The subsequent review and resubmission process has been ongoing and has now been completed.

Lu Ang happened to be nearby, so he came to inform him on his way.

Meng Chuan thanked him repeatedly.

Lu Ang is the governor of the entire northern region. The fact that he took the time out of his busy schedule to inform him shows how much he values ​​him.

Lu Ang patted Meng Chuan on the shoulder and smiled:
"The nation has seen your talent and hard work. If you continue to train diligently, becoming a Five-Limit Venerable is within your reach, and you also have a great chance of becoming a Martial Arts King."

Upon hearing this, Meng quickly replied humbly:

"Lord Lu, you flatter me. I was just lucky to receive careful guidance from my teachers."

I still have a long way to go, and I will definitely continue to study diligently and practice assiduously as the country has nurtured me.

Meng Chuan took the Heavenly King's praise with a grain of salt, showing no sign of arrogance.

Lu Ang waved his hand and said:
"I'm serious, I'm not joking. This is based on a comprehensive national assessment, which concludes that you have the potential."

Okay, I'll send you an encrypted file about the talent pool in a bit, you can check it yourself.

I'll mainly explain the relevant benefits and obligations to you. I believe that's what you're most concerned about.

Meng Chuan nodded, agreeing.

"For you geniuses who have been included in the talent pool, everything will revolve around [special battle achievements]."

"clear."

Meng Chuan understood.

He was well aware of how useful special combat achievements were.

Five hundred special battle merits can be exchanged for the [Minor Creation White Bone Pill], which is considered a top-grade rare pill.

Not to mention all sorts of rare and precious materials, magical weapons, and other items that are not available on the market.

All of these can be obtained through special military achievements.

Meng Chuan was a little excited because he needed the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus and the Immortal Tear Gold.

The Special Forces section within the Armory of Merit has them readily available, just sitting there waiting for the right person to claim them.

Lu Ang continued:

"Don't get excited. There's no such thing as a free lunch. You know that principle."

The purpose of establishing special military merits by the state is to make the strong even stronger and to enable those with talent to realize their potential more quickly.

We must focus on both ends, doing our utmost to cultivate top-tier martial artists who can lead humanity in a counterattack against the Heavenly Demons.

Within the talent pool system, you can earn a large number of special combat merits by accepting missions.

In addition, the government provides special subsidies and benefits; as long as one holds the title of "National Talent," they receive a monthly government subsidy of 20 points.

Meng Chuan nodded, understanding the task; there is no reward without effort.

Regarding the second point, the monthly benefits are quite generous; the government isn't stingy at all.

He worked hard for nearly a year and won a national championship before receiving 500 special merits.

By being added to the talent pool, you can earn 20 points every month even if you just stay at home and do nothing.

Two years is enough to earn the same reward as his first national championship.

Seeing Meng Chuan's eyes light up, Lu Ang smiled and explained:

"Aside from the special ways to obtain meritorious service, the biggest benefit is the opportunity to listen to the Great Sage preach once a year."

Two months in advance, the system will notify you of the time, location, and which great sage will be giving the sermon.

Click on it and take a look; I remember the announcement for this year's Great Sage's Sermon has already been released.

"it is good."

Meng Chuan opened the page on his phone displaying citizens' personal information.

A new small icon has been updated in the upper left corner.

Upon entering the National Talent Pool System page, you will see a pop-up message for "[Great Sage Preaching]" at the top.
