People are devouring everything; I have a bucket list.

Rewind 3 minutes.

Inside the training room.

Having just obtained the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, Xiao Yang couldn't wait to open the silver briefcase and take out the secret manual inside.

Inside was a beautifully crafted book, three centimeters thick, and four USB drives containing practice tutorials.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Yang plugged the USB drive into the tablet to read it, and then began to peruse the Nine-fold Thunder Blade.

Of all martial arts techniques in the world, none are invincible except speed!

After glancing at the introductory text written by Thor, Xiao Yang immediately flipped through the manual for the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade.

The core of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade technique is "speed".

The core of power generation, body movement, and guiding techniques all lies in the word "speed".

While delivering a punch with a hidden force equal to about 0.7 times one's own punching power, another punch is delivered.

The combined force of the two attacks results in 1.4 times the hidden power, which is equivalent to mastering the first level of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade.

Mastering the three hidden strengths is the second level, which allows for 2.1 times the force.

Xiao Yang knew very well that the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade created by Thor was not considered anything special in the entire universe.

However, on Earth today, the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, capable of achieving ten layers of internal force and generating a force amplitude of seven times, is the most advanced secret technique.

Xiao Yang glanced at the core of the Nine-fold Thunder Blade.

The movement technique is "Flowing Light", the guiding technique is "Ninefold Chaotic Origin", and the power amplitude is "Ninefold Thunder Blade".

These are the three core elements.

"I can understand it."

Xiao Yang breathed a sigh of relief after finishing scanning the manual.

He didn't consider himself a genius, and he tended to have a somewhat idealized view of things like martial arts manuals.

Now that he has seen the original Nine-fold Thunder Blade, he feels that it is not that difficult.

However, Xiao Yang did not underestimate the difficulty of the Ninefold Thunder Blade. After confirming that he could understand it, Xiao Yang took the initiative to activate the Origin Amplification.

This primordial amplitude, which can only be activated after fulfilling Xiao Yang's last wish and inheriting the legacy of all the heavens and myriad realms, can comprehensively enhance Xiao Yang's essence.

Life level, enlightenment, soul—everything doubles when the 'Original Amplitude' is activated.

It was at this moment that Xiao Yang "again" understood the Ninefold Thunder Blade.

He combined Garp's Iron Fist training, the Navy's Six Powers manual, illustrations and texts of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, and training videos.

Xiao Yang immediately "understood" how the Ninefold Thunder Blade exerted its power.

Isn't this just a 'shave' used on a knife or on the body?

The principle of shaving is to stomp on the ground dozens of times at high speed within 0.36 seconds, thereby obtaining explosive reaction force and moving at high speed.

The Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, on the other hand, involves multiple layers of internal energy bursting and overlapping at high speed within the body, thereby achieving amplification in power output.

Combining the strengths of both worlds, Xiao Yang, having activated the amplitude, instantly understood the amplitude method of exerting force.

Without the slightest hesitation, he stood up and, using the power of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, threw a punch at the punching power tester.

77495KG.

84448KG.

95784KG

126111KG.

The four increasingly higher punching power data made Xiao Yang's eyes light up quickly.

This also caused Zhuge Tao and the others standing at the door to look on with disbelief.

After throwing a dozen more punches, Xiao Yang, whose punching power was fluctuating between 126,000 and 127,000, finally stopped and breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, an incredulous voice came from behind Xiao Yang:

"Brother Xiao, no, Brother Xiao Yang, what's wrong with you...?"

At this moment, Xiao Yang turned around and glanced at Zhuge Tao, who had returned, with surprise. Then he hesitated and said:

"Pretty much, I guess I've mastered the Ninefold Thunder Blade technique?"

"Which level?"

Zhuge Tao pressed him for an answer, and then, after finishing, he slapped himself hard on the back.

"I'm sorry, Brother Xiao Yang, I didn't mean to pry into your secrets, I'm just... just too shocked."

It hasn't been that long, and Xiao Yang has already mastered the Ninefold Thunder Blade!

Moreover, judging from the looks of it, this isn't even the first level of the beginner's level; it's at least the second or third level.

This is the ultimate secret technique, the Ninefold Thunder Blade! How long has he been learning it?!

"It's not a big secret. I just learned the second level and increased my power by 2.1 times."

Xiao Yang did not hide his idea of ​​increasing his strength. After all, in the early stages, when Hong was in charge of the Limit Martial Arts Academy, the better his talent was, the easier it was for him to obtain resources.

Xiao Yang did indeed reach the second level of the Thunder Blade.

Ignoring the amplitude of his punches, Xiao Yang's basic punching power is only about 60 tons, which is very close to the 64 tons of a beginner-level war god.

However, if the Nine-fold Thunder Blade is used, the amplitude of its power will be over 126 tons, comparable to a mid-level War God.

If he were to combine his Haki and transform into an Ancient Zoan, Xiao Yang would now be an invincible God of War standing at the pinnacle of the God of War realm. With the Flame-Flame Fruit, even if the opponent were a planetary-level being surpassed by the God of War, Xiao Yang would have the confidence to put up a fight.

After realizing that his hidden strength already placed him among the top few dozen people on Earth, Xiao Yang relaxed considerably, even joking with Zhuge Tao:

"Speaking of which, how much power is Brother Zhuge exerting now?"

"It's not as good as my brother's, but it's enough, it's enough."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Tao's lips twitched. His power was not high, and the manual he practiced only had a 0.5x amplitude per level. When he reached the fourth level, it was exactly 2x amplitude, which was a little less than Xiao Yang's 2.1x.

The thought that he could be Xiao Yang's senior one second and now be called "Little Zhu" by Xiao Yang made Zhuge Tao unable to keep his expression in check.

However, compared to this trivial matter, Zhuge Tao was preoccupied with something far more important:

"Brother Xiao Yang, is this really your first time practicing the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade?"

Xiao Yang raised an eyebrow, but before he could answer, Zhuge Tao began to speak to himself:

"Whether it's the first time or not doesn't matter. A 24-year-old advanced warrior with the second level of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade is already qualified to apply for the Ultimate Talent Cultivation Program."

Realizing this, Zhuge Tao gritted his teeth and said to Xiao Yang:

"Brother Xiao Yang, stay in Jiangnan Base City for the next few days and don't wander around. I'll go find the inspectors and apply for a tremendous opportunity for you!"

"An opportunity that could increase your current strength by two or three times."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang looked at Zhuge Tao in surprise:

"You mean, dragon's blood?"

"You know that?"

Zhuge Tao stared at Xiao Yang in shock, then his expression became quite subtle:

"Brother Xiao Yang...you...sigh, I really don't know what to say about you like this."

"Your file says you're a 24-year-old auxiliary police officer at the local police station, how come you even know about dragon blood?"

"Everyone has their own secrets~ You hear it by chance from someone else, or you see a scoop online, and that's pretty much what it means."

Xiao Yang then said with a relaxed expression:

"Anyway, Brother Zhuge, I've already spent most of your investment. If you want to withdraw your investment, I don't have the money to pay you back."

"This isn't about money!" Zhuge Tao scratched his head anxiously. "It's a background check issue, which can determine whether you can get the Dragon Blood Investment from the main branch."

Zhuge Tao hesitated for a moment, then sighed:

"In short, don't leave Jiangnan Base City for the next couple of days. Wait for my news first."

In response, Xiao Yang simply shrugged and said:

"It's alright, I have things to do today and tomorrow, so I won't be leaving for a while."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Tao asked curiously:

What are you going to do these next couple of days?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang looked at Zhuge Tao speechlessly:

"What else could it be? Resigning from the Yi'an District Police Station and moving to Mingyue Residential Area!"

"Does this mean a high-ranking combatant like me should continue working as a police auxiliary officer and living in an apartment building?"

Zhuge Tao paused for a moment, then gave an awkward laugh.

It seems that's indeed the case...

"In that case, go ahead, and remember to keep in touch."

"OK!"

Xiao Yang nodded, packed his things, and prepared to leave.

As for the goal...

It's time to go back to the police station and "return home in glory".

Well, we can also take a look at what Luo Feng, the suspect he arrested, is doing now!
