Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 10 A Great Joy

"What?"

Looking at the numbers displayed on the screen in front of him, Wu Tong's eyes trembled violently, and his heart pounded like a drum.

Jiang Lan, on the other hand, simply pushed open the door and walked out of the testing room.

He knows his own achievements all too well.

once.

In the advanced warrior's neural reaction test, he was hit only once in sixty seconds.

This time, Jiang Lan was caught off guard and hit when he relaxed at the last moment.

If I had focused a little more, I probably would have gotten a perfect score this time.

Upon arriving beside Wu Tong, Jiang Lan saw the results displayed on the light screen.

[Advanced Warrior Reaction Speed Test: Within 60 seconds, hit once, touched the red light 0 times, Excellent+.]

Jiang Lan looked away. It wasn't perfect; there was a slight sense of regret.

He looked at Wu Tong, but before he could speak, Wu Tong grabbed his hand and said urgently:

"You wait here, I'll call headquarters right now!"

At this moment, Wu Tong's heart was practically pounding out of his chest.

Jiang Lan's surprise was so great that he could hardly believe it was really happening.

Based on Jiang Lan's performance just now, if he can successfully join the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, Wu Tong will definitely have made a great contribution. He might even get a three-level promotion because of this.

Not only that, he can also gain a considerable amount of contribution points because of this.

Contribution points are extremely important to every member of the martial arts school. Whether it's buying secret manuals or getting promoted in the future, contribution points can play a role.

Yang Wei, who was standing in the corner, had been in a daze ever since Jiang Lan started the advanced warrior trial.

He couldn't understand how Jiang Lan, who was just an unknown person a month ago, could suddenly become so outrageous.

Yang Wei entered the martial arts school at the age of sixteen and has been training ever since, but at the age of thirty-six, his strength is only at the level of a high-level warrior, still a bit far from that of a general.

Twenty years of effort couldn't even compare to someone else's twenty days. Yang Wei felt that the worldview he had built up since childhood had completely collapsed at this moment.

Wu Tong took out his phone, his hand trembling slightly, and tried to tap the right spot several times but failed.

After a long while, he finally managed to dial a number.

A sweet female voice came from the speaker.

"Hello, this is the Ultimate Martial Arts Academy. How can I help you?"

"I am Wu Tong, the head coach of Yangzhou City Extreme Sports Club. Help me connect to headquarters."

Wu Tong forced down his excitement, but his voice still trembled slightly.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

A moment later, an elderly man with white hair appeared on Wu Tong's phone screen, sitting upright in a wooden chair.

Upon seeing the person, Wu Tongdao said:

"Uncle Bai, a genius has emerged from my area."

"A genius?" The old man's voice was calm and composed. "Someone who would make you call me must be no ordinary genius, right? Tell me, how strong are you?"

Wu Tong had already memorized Jiang Lan's test data. Hearing Bai Bo's question, he replied:

"Jiang Lan, seventeen years old, punching power 14288 kg, speed 143.25 meters per second, advanced warrior's neural reaction test, hit once within 60 seconds, did not go out of the circle."

Every time Wu Tong reported a set of data, the old man on the other side of his phone screen would widen his eyes even more.

Upon hearing the data from the neurological response test, the old man slammed his hand on the table and abruptly stood up.

"What did you say? A high-level warrior's neural reaction test? Are you sure?"

Seeing Bai Bo's surprised expression, Wu Tong not only didn't find it strange, but also felt it was perfectly normal.

It seems that it's not that he has a poor tolerance for stress, but rather that Jiang Lan is indeed a bit too outrageous.

Wu Tong repeated:

"I am 100% certain of the advanced-level general-level neural response test."

Uncle Bai on the other end of the phone stared wide-eyed, as if he wanted to ask something.

But he quickly gave up the idea of asking.

He and Wu Tong had known each other for a long time. Unless Wu Tong was tired of working at the Extreme Martial Arts Academy and didn't want to continue, he wouldn't use this method to make a joke.

After a long pause, Uncle Bai continued to ask:

"Is this genius one of our martial arts school's members?"

"Yes." Long before Jiang Lan arrived, Wu Tong had already thoroughly investigated his information. He replied, "He was a junior student at our martial arts school before."

Uncle Bai: "?"

Even though Bai Bo believed that Wu Tong would not joke about such a thing, he couldn't help but have doubts.

No, are you just messing around here?

Seventeen years old, a former junior student, and now he's at the level of a mid-level warrior? His movement techniques have even surpassed those of a mid-level warrior?

What kind of interstellar joke is this?

"You...no, I'm going there now. You absolutely must keep a close eye on him. If anything goes wrong during this time, I'll hold you responsible!"

Before Wu Tong could reply, Bai Bo hurriedly hung up the phone.

Wu Tong sighed, his gaze towards Jiang Lan somewhat complicated.

He began:

"I was in the elevator at the time, and I was thinking about asking you to join the Extreme Martial Arts Academy."

As he spoke, he glanced in Yang Wei's direction and continued, "But I'm afraid you don't actually have the strength that Xiao Wei said you have. That kid is just making fun of me, so I wanted to wait until you've been tested before bringing it up."

"Now... I guess Uncle Bai thinks the same way I did before, right? No, maybe he thinks I'm crazy..."

After saying this, Wu Tong gave a wry smile, "After telling you about your test results, I also feel like I might be going crazy."

Jiang Lan didn't say anything, she just shrugged.

Even he himself finds it hard to believe his current physical condition.

Even with prior preparation, it's unimaginable what would happen if Wu Tong and Yang Wei were to appear unexpectedly.

Wu Tong's current state already demonstrates a very strong mental fortitude.

If things had gone slightly differently, it wouldn't have been impossible for him to faint on the spot.

"Let's go downstairs and wait for the people from headquarters." Wu Tong added, "By the way, have you eaten? If not, I'll have the cafeteria send some down."

"I haven't eaten yet," Jiang Lan replied honestly.

People need food to live; nothing is more important than having enough to eat.

Wu Tong chuckled, "Then let's go, I'll take you downstairs."

Jiang Lan nodded, and the two walked towards the elevator together.

At the elevator entrance, Wu Tong glanced at Yang Wei, who stood there somewhat bewildered. "Let's go together, are you stupid?"

"Oh?" Yang Wei paused for a moment before realizing what was happening and quickly said, "Ah! Coming, coming!"

After saying that, he took three steps at a time and ran to the elevator.

Take the elevator to the first floor.

Inside the main hall, there is a small pub-like area where a bartender stands behind the counter.

Seeing Wu Tong's delighted expression, the bartender asked:

"Chief Instructor Wu, is this some good news?"

"What a joyous occasion!"
