Shen Ping knew that Senior Brother Chu Qiang was a prominent figure in the Training Camp, often ranking in the top five of the Black Dragon List. At the same time, the latter was also from the military, with the military providing over 10 billion in annual activity funds alone!
The purpose of his banquet, besides his own strength, was also to recruit new members.
"Senior Brother Chu!"
He called out.
Chu Qiang smiled, "Shen Ping, among new members, fewer than five in previous sessions have managed to break into the top 100 in their first month. You just entered the Training Camp and can easily pass the B-Rank difficulty. I believe your Fist Force and movement techniques are not weak, so I think highly of you..."
"You should know that I am from the military, so how about it, do you want to join the military? As long as you are willing to come, the military will provide 10 billion in annual funding for your five years in the Training Camp!"
Shen Ping was surprised.
10 billion?
This was a significant sum. It was known that when Luo Feng entered the Training Camp, Chu Qiang only offered 5 billion.
And an elementary God of War could only earn that much money annually.
Unfortunately.
He would not join the military.
Because no force or consortium on Global could compare to the Dojo of Limits in terms of Cultivation resources.
During the Great Nirvana period, Hong was the fastest rising powerhouse, and similarly, many Ancient Civilization Ruins resources on Earth were all collected by Hong.
"Senior Brother Chu, I just arrived at the Training Camp and currently have no plans to join other forces. I will consider it in a year or two!" Shen Ping said tactfully.
Hearing this, Senior Brother Chu Qiang did not insist and said with a smile, "Alright, if you are interested, you are welcome to come find me anytime!"
In fact, not only Chu Qiang, but other forces, consortia, and the Thunder Martial Hall from Global also extended olive branches through other China members at this banquet.
But Shen Ping refused them all.
He did need money, it was true.
But what he truly needed were Cultivation resources.
Two days passed in a flash.
October 19th, early morning.
The sky was faintly bright.
Shen Ping emerged from the basement, took a shower, and then stood by the back window on the second floor of the pavilion.
From there, he could see the artificial lake and the beautiful scenery of the large palace complex nearby, which made him feel refreshed.
Whoosh.
A puff of hot air escaped his mouth.
It was already quite cold in Hongning Base City in October.
If it were ordinary people, they would have to change into thick clothes in this month. Only Martial Artists like Shen Ping could wear thin clothes.
He opened the virtual frame.
He looked at the panel slowly appearing in his vision.
Comprehension Ability Points: 970
Exchange Count: 19
Exchange Count (Silver): 0
The silver exchange had still not accumulated.
He still needed to continue accumulating.
However, Shen Ping was not at all anxious. After all, by next month, he would be able to go out and hunt monsters. At that time, all three methods of accumulating Comprehension Ability would be maxed out!
After admiring the beautiful scenery for a while,
Cheng Jin's voice came in.
"Shen Ping, time for breakfast!"
Hearing the call, a trace of helplessness appeared on Shen Ping's face.
These past two or three days, he had truly experienced Senior Brother Cheng Jin's enthusiasm. Perhaps it was because the latter had been too lonely for the past three years; every day for breakfast, the latter would definitely order double portions and then call him to eat together in the long pavilion in the courtyard.
"Coming!"
Shen Ping was also too embarrassed to refuse and could only let him be. Fortunately, the other party only pulled him along for breakfast; lunch and dinner would be eaten at the restaurant.
"Teacher Jiang Fang has a good figure, doesn't she? Hehe, you're a lucky kid. You practice saber techniques, and Teacher Jiang Fang is the most skilled in saber techniques among the Training Camp teachers. As soon as you arrived, she directly became your direct teacher!"
Cheng Jin said with a mischievous smile, his eyes full of ill intent.
Shen Ping was speechless and ignored Cheng Jin. In fact, Jiang Fang becoming his teacher was not surprising. After all, among the Training Camp teachers skilled in saber techniques, Jiang Fang's saber technique Realm was the highest.
The other teachers also practiced saber techniques, but their main expertise was in other weapons.
When Luo Feng came next year, it was likely that Jiang Fang would also teach him.
Martial Artists use a variety of weapons. For example, Cheng Jin uses a long spear, while the prominent figure Chu Qiang uses an axe.
After breakfast, Shen Ping headed towards the Nine Heavens Tower.
Today is the 19th, an odd-numbered day. Those with odd-numbered rankings could go out and hunt monsters today.
Those with even-numbered rankings could only stay in the Training Camp, but most members who stayed in the Training Camp would Cultivate in the Nine Heavens Tower.
He arrived at a simulated gravity room on the seventh floor.
Teacher Jiang Fang, dressed in loose white Cultivation clothes, was already there.
Seeing Shen Ping, Jiang Fang smiled. Although she had only taught for two days, in these two days, she discovered that Shen Ping's blade technique Realm was terrifyingly high.
If she hadn't practiced the blade since childhood, she might not have anything left to teach him now.
Additionally, she already knew Shen Ping's punching power level, so she naturally understood that Shen Ping would likely rise quickly in the Training Camp.
"Teacher!"
Shen Ping said respectfully.
Jiang Fang nodded, indicating, "Shen Ping, your blade technique is fluid, and your Realm is close to Perfection. Logically, with such a Realm, you don't need to learn any more blade techniques, but if you want to go further, you must be patient and immerse yourself in it, not becoming complacent because of your achievements."
"Yes!"
Shen Ping said seriously.
His blade technique Realm was so high entirely because of a forced Epiphany. Others learned blade techniques through videos, focusing on movement techniques and power exertion techniques, but he was different; during his Epiphany, his blade technique improved as well.
However, the Flowing Wind blade technique, after all, focuses on movement and power exertion techniques, so his blade technique was only close to the Perfection Realm.
And Teacher Jiang Fang in front of him had already touched upon the fourth level, Concept.
Swish, swish, swish.
Soon, Jiang Fang began to demonstrate her blade technique in the simulated gravity room.
Her blade technique, besides being continuous, subtly merged with the surrounding environment. As she demonstrated, her entire being seemed to transform into a blade, exuding endless sharpness.
The simulated gravity room could reach 3 times gravity.
Practicing the blade in such an environment led to rapid improvement.
Time flowed silently, and unknowingly, more than ten days passed.
During this period, besides training in the basement, Shen Ping spent the rest of his time Cultivating blade techniques with Teacher Jiang Fang. Even without exchanging for Epiphany, his blade technique improved rapidly.
In just over ten days, his blade technique was only a hair's breadth away from the Perfection Realm.
However, although every day was fulfilling, Shen Ping occasionally wondered why no 'money-scattering boys' had come to challenge him to a bet fight, even though he had been in the Training Camp for over ten days!
One must know that when new members first arrived, many older members would challenge them to bet fights, partly to give the newcomers a show of force, and partly to seize the opportunity to earn some money.
When Luo Feng came in, William from Europe immediately challenged Luo Feng to a bet fight and ended up losing terribly.
Finally, Shen Ping could only conclude that he passed the B-level assessment too quickly. Anyone not foolish would guess that his punching power and movement techniques were quite formidable, surpassing most newcomers.
So, without knowing his specific strength, no one would foolishly come to challenge him to a bet fight.
That night.
In the study, Shen Ping looked at his laptop.
The computer screen showed a girl wearing only pajamas...
