High-level martial arts: Contract cashback, invincible starting from the Zerg.

The following afternoon, Chen Feng returned to the Combat Academy.

After half a day of rest, Chen Feng's fatigue had eased somewhat, so he went to the Tower of Babel training room to begin practicing the "Soldier Body Tempering Technique".

The introduction to the "Soldier Body Forging Technique" mentioned that in the early days of the Great Xia Kingdom, there was an exceptionally fierce army. This army was founded by Liu Xu, a berserker of the Hong level, and most of the soldiers in the army practiced the "Soldier Body Forging Technique".

This unit not only possessed extremely strong physiques, but also had the best combat capabilities among all armies at the time, especially in extreme environments.

This legion was later known as the "Salamander Legion".

However, with the changes of the times and technology, the technological level of the people of the Great Xia Kingdom has been significantly improved, but their spiritual constitution has been gradually weakened. This has indirectly led to the gradual reduction of the number of people in the Fire Lizard Legion until it was finally disbanded, and the soldiers were assigned to other units.

The once renowned "Soldier's Body Forging Technique" has gradually been buried in the river of time.

[Sergeant Body Tempering Technique, Level 1: Armor Tempering (Levels 1-5 of Sergeant Body Tempering Technique)]

[Body Tempering Introduction: Through simulated high-pressure loads, iron sand impacts, and extreme environment adaptation, the cultivator's physical body undergoes initial strengthening and modification. It also uses faint spiritual energy to locate and activate the cultivator's spiritual energy nodes.]

【兵甲淬体效果：基础力量+200%、骨密度×5、基础敏捷+180%、灵能兼容度+300%、其他属性+80%±20%】

【修炼者的基础属性：力量53、敏捷40、感知43、智慧38、灵能73、】

【修炼完成的基础属性：力量106、敏捷72、感知82、智慧62、灵能146】

Seeing the explanation of the technique's effects on the screen, Chen Feng couldn't help but be a little surprised.

A normal man's physical attributes, such as strength and agility, are generally around 20 points, while his perception, intelligence, and psychic attributes are even lower.

If Chen Feng were to master the [Armor Tempering] technique within the Soldier's Body Tempering Art, his bone density would be greatly enhanced, and he would possess five times the strength of an adult man! He could then easily lift a car that's pinning someone down with his bare hands, quickly subdue multiple attackers, and even withstand the impact of small vehicles!

However, Chen Feng, who was once a national-level berserker, knew very well what price he would have to pay for such a powerful physique.

"Alright, we're going to start anyway."

As Chen Feng murmured to himself, he took a deep breath and pressed the button to start cultivating with his right hand.

Soon, the humming sound of machinery coming from above the training room came out, and an extremely heavy pressure instantly pressed down on Chen Feng, the powerful pressure instantly pressing Chen Feng's entire body towards the ground in front of him.

Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!

Chen Feng was breathing heavily. At this moment, his muscle fibers felt as if they were being pierced by dozens of steel needles, and each muscle contraction brought him excruciating pain.

To make matters worse, when the low-frequency psionic energy above the training room began to reshape his body, Chen Feng experienced an uncomfortable sensation of alternating ice and fire throughout his bones, as if lava and ice were circulating within his crevices.

At this moment, Chen Feng, who felt as if he were in purgatory, truly understood what it meant for each day to feel like an eternity...

However, Chen Feng did not back down. He simply gripped the ground tightly with his five fingers, his bloodshot eyes glaring at the earth, desperately holding on...

...

While Chen Feng was still training in the Tower of Babel training room.

Inside the main building of the Battle Academy, the combatant training room was thrown into turmoil by a strange rumor.

"Hey, have you heard? The special envoy from the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom has arrived in Starfish City."

"Oh? Is that so? I always thought the special envoy only went to first-tier cities."

"Unless something very important happens here, they won't come to our third-tier cities."

"Could it be related to our exam? Look, Luo Feng and the others don't seem to be in the classroom?" someone said.

Listening to the discussion among her comrades in Class A, Xiaoxue immediately looked at Jianyao's seat not far away with a puzzled expression.

It was discovered that, apart from Jian Yao, who was not valued by the Jian family, Jian Mei, Luo Feng, and Chao Yue had also disappeared.

Only Orochi Four Spears remained seated, with his long legs stretched across his deskmate's table, fast asleep in a domineering manner.

Xiaoxue immediately stood up and walked towards Xuenai's office, wanting to find out what was going on.

Inside the military attaché's office, Xue Nai held the receiver to her ear, her slender fingers unconsciously twirling the ends of her hair. However, her amber eyes, which should have been full of affection, were now frozen with frost, and her cherry lips were pressed into a sharp line.

It seems that the person Xuena is talking to on the phone is making Xuena increasingly irritable.

"So you can't even do the most basic material verification?"

Xue Nai's voice was like a silver bell that had been soaked in an icy spring, each word carrying a coldness of disappointment, and the response from the other end of the phone only aroused her deeper frustration.

At this moment, Xiaoxue carefully approached Xuenai's side and gently patted Xuenai's shoulder.

"Aunt Xuenai?"

Xue Nai turned to look at Xiao Xue, but unusually gave her a cold look. Instead, she made a shushing gesture, telling Xiao Xue to wait until she finished the call.

Seeing this, Xiaoxue could only stand obediently to the side and wait for Xuenai to finish her call.

Xue Nai made a phone call for more than ten minutes before finally losing all her patience.

"I want to see a complete solution to this by 8 a.m. tomorrow."

After saying that, Xue Nai slammed the phone shut, her hands trembling slightly.

The sunlight outside the window suddenly seemed to become dazzling. Xue Nai closed her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and sighed heavily.

However, before the sigh had subsided, her phone on the table vibrated again, the new call ringing like a sharp note piercing the stagnant air.

"Auntie, what exactly happened? Why did the special envoy come here?" Xiaoxue couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Xue Nai opened her eyes and looked at Xiao Xue.

"Has anyone in your team started discussing this?"

"Yes, I just found out too."

Xue Nai looked at Xiao Xue for a while, and her gaze unconsciously softened.

In the end, she decided to tell Xiaoxue the truth.

"Three of Starfish City's senior managers have recently died. People in the capital suspect that a powerful demon has infiltrated Starfish City. And as you know, we've also discovered the mark of a colossal beast. Now the capital is going to conduct a full investigation of us, and all the evidence and witnesses need to be prepared... I'm really annoyed."

"Not all senior managers are combatants, so killing them won't benefit the demons, will it?" Xiaoxue asked, puzzled.

Xue Nai chuckled helplessly, but a hint of doting affection appeared in her eyes.

"Don't leave the Combat Academy for the next few days. It's the safest place in the whole city right now."
