The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

The training room on the 90th floor could be used for a month. For the next ten days or so, Lu Yuan practiced heat waves and solar winds.

Although they are the same combat technique, heat waves can be used directly, while solar winds require the condensation of meteorological solar energy.

"That's about it."

Provided you fully understand it, it's just a matter of honing muscle memory.

Compared to combat skills like Burst Step, which emphasize movement and power generation, mastering Earth-rank combat skills is actually easier.

Lu Yuan estimated that if a real battle were to break out, although he wouldn't be able to do it effortlessly or at will, he would already be proficient enough to handle most situations.

In that case, there's no need to continue wasting time on combat skills training.

Lu Yuan walked out of the special training room. He would continue to focus on Qi cultivation and strive to open his eighth and ninth martial meridians as soon as possible.

360!

Inside the elevator, I casually checked my mental state.

These days, Lu Yuan practiced his combat skills during the day and dealt with Li Wenxiu at night, and his mental strength continued to improve.

Only 40 points away from the 400 mark!

Based on previous experience, once the score exceeds 400, the performance should improve further.

It's just unknown whether it's simply enhancing perception, or whether it can transform mental energy into a higher-level energy form that can be directly used in combat.

At the same time, the Tao Te Ching has fixed two thousand loopholes and defects, and now only the last three thousand remain to be repaired!

As the repair progressed, no new abilities emerged from the Tao Te Ching. The true nature of this "secret manual" will likely only be known after its complete restoration.

With Lu Yuan's current mental strength, mainly due to his nightly "efforts," it shouldn't be long before he's recovered.

"Brother Yuan, the director is looking for you."

As soon as I got off the elevator, I saw Sun Baoyu waiting there.

By the way, he seems to really enjoy running errands and delivering messages.

"understood."

Lu Yuan nodded and left.

Wu Jianming is the director of the special operations team, and the highest and only person in charge of the team, but in reality, he is not in the special operations team most of the time.

The Special Operations Team is somewhat different from other departments of the Starry Sky Club. Once the rules are set, everyone just needs to follow them, and there is no need for much management.

After all, the special operations team is full of elites, and in addition to talent, elites often have a level of self-discipline that far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Not knowing why Wu Jianming suddenly wanted to see him, Lu Yuan didn't think much of it and went straight to the director's office, raising his hand to knock on the door.

"Enter."

With permission, Lu Yuan pushed open the office door.

To be honest, this is my first time in the director's office. As the highest authority in the special operations team, the office is quite simple and not very big, which is rather inconsistent with Wu Jianming's status.

But thinking about it, it makes sense, since he's not here most of the time.

"Please sit wherever you like."

Behind his desk, Wu Jianming leaned back lazily in his chair and casually pointed.

Lu Yuan looked around and sat down in the chair opposite Wu Jianming.

"Director, you wanted to see me."

"right."

Wu Jianming glanced at Lu Yuan, then spoke directly without further ado.

"I'm going to select you for the Star Dou Squad."

"The Starry Sky Squad?"

Lu Yuan's eyes widened slightly; he was indeed somewhat surprised.

Having been with the special operations team for some time, Lu Yuan knew almost everything that was going on within the team.

I learned about the Star Dou Squad from Sun Baoyu and Liu Jingfeng.

The so-called Star Squad can be simply understood as a team composed of elites selected from the Special Operations Team.

The Special Operations Team is an elite force that trains warriors, and the Star Dou Squad is the elite of the elite!

However, the Star Dou Squad is not fixed. It will only be formed if Wu Jianming believes that there are enough qualified people in the Special Operations Team.

According to Sun Baoyu and the others, there are currently eight or nine people waiting to be selected. Once they have thirteen people, they will officially form a team.

Lu Yuan didn't expect that Wu Jianming would suddenly contact him to invite him to join the Star Dou Squad.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. With Lu Yuan's current strength, he is indeed qualified to join Star Dou.

"Thank you for your kind words, Director, but to be honest, I don't know much about the Star Dou Squad."

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but did not agree immediately.

As the elite of the elite, the Star Dou Squad naturally enjoys extra benefits; to put it bluntly, their welfare and treatment are better. After all, for working people, welfare and treatment are definitely the top priority.

But similarly, isn't it said that with great power comes great responsibility? Higher wages mean more work. Lu Yuan had no idea what the Star Dou Squad was going to do, whether there was any danger involved, or exactly how dangerous it was.

Taking this into consideration, he dared not agree rashly.

"Heh, you are quite interesting."

Looking at Lu Yuan, Wu Jianming couldn't help but smile.

Whether it was this year's cohort or previous ones, whenever he extended an invitation, no matter how talented they were, their first reaction was almost always to excitedly accept on the spot.

After all, the Star Dou Squad is a sacred temple that the members of the Special Operations Team yearn for.

Only Lu Yuan seemed so hesitant.

"Take a look at this."

Wu Jianming thought for a moment, then rummaged through the drawer, found a document, and handed it to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan took the report, which was titled "Some Information Regarding the Construction of the Star Dou Squad." He couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly as he looked at Wu Jianming. Could this be the report from when the Star Dou Squad was formed?

"There's a detailed explanation here. Although some content has been changed, the impact is minimal."

Wu Jianming smiled and gestured for Lu Yuan to see for himself.

He didn't understand, so Wu Jianming was too lazy to explain. In fact, he himself couldn't remember many of the terms, so he simply gave the relevant information to Lu Yuan.

"Oh, I'll take a look first."

Lu Yuan nodded and began to read carefully.

It was about twenty pages long and took me about half an hour to read.

After reading it, Lu Yuan let out a soft sigh, his expression serious.

First of all, the Star Dou Squad is really well treated!

For example, a detached villa!

Joining the Starry Sky Club allows you to apply for a residence. While ordinary martial artists typically live in single apartments, members of the Special Operations Team own a large single-level apartment.

The members of the Star Dou Squad live in a villa!

Moreover, it's not just about living there; it's about owning full property rights, which means it's being given away for free!

Then it covers cars, home appliances, and various services such as medical care and insurance. Almost everything you need for daily life is included, and all of them are top-of-the-line.

This treatment surpasses that of many generals from various factions.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Since they were selected for the Star Dou Squad, it's only a matter of time before they become warriors.

In addition, as a member of the Star Dou Squad, you can receive a fixed 'salary' of 1,000 points every month!

One thousand points, that's enough to exchange for a low-grade Xuan-level combat skill.

It should be noted that Lu Yuan had previously won first place in the final test at the training camp, which earned him a low-grade Xuan-level combat skill as a reward.

Within the special operations team, there are actually cases where points are purchased with money. The price fluctuates slightly depending on the time period, with one point costing around several hundred yuan.

One thousand points, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands!

All things considered, the annual salary is nearly ten million.

Of course, as mentioned before, the reward will inevitably be proportional to the effort.

As members of the Star Dou Squad, they are required to carry out various missions unconditionally, and the level of danger they face is far beyond that of ordinary members of the Special Operations Team.

For example, hunting monsters outside the city was a common occurrence.

"Director, I..."

Bang~!

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but before he could finish speaking, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties and wore glasses rushed in.

"Old Wu! I need someone from you!"
