"Iron Hand, it seems Jiangnan Base City really has produced a genius this time!"
Yang Hui said to Zhou Zhengyong beside him, his face full of shock.
At this moment, Zhou Zhengyong's own shock hadn't yet faded, and a surge of immense joy welled up in his eyes.
"Hahaha!"
"This shows that Jiangnan Base City is truly a land of extraordinary talent!"
"Luo Fan, you're impressive!"
Hearing this, Luo Fan didn't feel proud, but casually mentioned his angel investor.
"Not at all, just a bit of luck."
"I also have to thank Director Zhuge, Chief Instructor Wu Tong, and Instructor Jiang Nian for their guidance."
"If it weren't for the contract Director Zhuge gave me, I wouldn't even be able to afford the Ninefold Thunder Blade now."
Hearing this, Zhou Zhengyong immediately understood Luo Fan's meaning.
He looked at Zhuge Tao standing nearby, his face glowing with pride.
"Zhuge, you did well this time. I'll be sure to report this properly to the higher-ups."
Hearing that, Zhuge Tao's face showed even more excitement.
"This is all Luo Fan's own achievement."
"I only provided a trivial amount of help."
"I'm just following the president's example—fully cultivating the genius of Jiangnan Base City!"
At that moment, Yang Hui suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Luo Fan, you have a younger brother named Luo Feng, right?"
"Luo Feng also seems to be a Spiritual Force Master with the potential to become an invincible Warlord?"
The last sentence was directed at Zhuge Tao.
Hearing this, Zhuge Tao immediately explained Luo Feng's situation.
Everyone present was a bit shocked.
Two Spiritual Force Masters in one family.
And both possessing the potential to become invincible Wargods.
How could such a situation not be astonishing?
After a brief discussion, the group decided to consult on whether they should also send Luo Feng over.
After reporting to headquarters, a decision was made.
As long as Luo Feng could pass the A-level test, he could enter the camp.
So, Yang Hui and Zhuge Tao took a fighter craft to the wilderness zone to bring back Luo Feng, who was hunting monsters with the members of the Fire Hammer Squad.
During this time, Luo Fan was saying goodbye to Fang Xueyi.
However, Luo Fan knew that he would be back very soon.
Before long, Luo Feng was brought over.
Seeing the fighter craft in the wilderness, Luo Feng was still a bit stunned.
If he hadn't seen Zhuge Tao, he would have thought he was being kidnapped.
Now, seeing his older brother Luo Fan here, he felt a little relieved.
Soon, the group conducted tests on Luo Feng.
Thanks to Luo Fan, Luo Feng had already mastered the first layer of the Ninefold Thunder Blade.
During his time in the wilderness, Luo Feng had also comprehended the second layer of the Ninefold Thunder Blade.
This was because Luo Fan occasionally called Luo Feng.
He shared all his insights with Luo Feng, including the fact that force could be applied to the legs to increase speed.
In the original story, Luo Feng only learned this after entering the Elite Training Camp.
Since the Fire Hammer Squad members were nearby when he used the communication watch, Luo Fan hadn't taught Luo Feng the Ninety-Ninefold Thunder Blade yet.
He had planned to teach it to him once he returned, mainly to gain a bit of fortune and comprehension points.
Fortune, in the universe, was probably very important.
After all, once Luo Fan's fortune increased, he might randomly encounter inheritances or other opportunities while walking along his path.
This time, if Luo Feng passed the assessment, Luo Fan could wait until he entered the Elite Training Camp to teach him.
Soon, Luo Feng passed the test.
After signing the contract and saying goodbye to Fang Xueyi, the two of them boarded Yang Hui's fighter craft and headed toward the Elite Training Camp.
It was almost the end of July.
Upon entering the camp, they did not need to be ranked for the time being.
As for this year's life-and-death assessment, they could choose not to participate.
Before long, Yang Hui brought the two of them into the Elite Training Camp.
As soon as they passed through the gates, Luo Fan saw a massive dragon-shaped sculpture.
Nearly fifty meters tall, the colossal black dragon's enormous eyes stared down at them.
An endless aura of darkness instantly pressed down, making Luo Feng beside him feel suffocated.
Luo Fan, however, only hesitated for a moment before regaining his composure.
After all, he had prepared himself, and he was a Warlord-level Spiritual Force Master.
"Wake up!"
He shouted loudly, snapping Luo Feng back to attention.
Yang Hui, standing nearby, looked at Luo Fan in surprise.
He had expected that the aura from the black dragon's eyes would intimidate Luo Fan.
"Luo Fan has a strong will,"
Yang Hui said appreciatively.
At this moment, Luo Fan and Luo Feng turned their gaze to the dragon's scales.
Rankings were inscribed on them.
NO.1 Renatus Bridge (530321)
NO.2 Chu Qiang (540601)
NO.3 Eben Pass (520316)
…
NO.171 Huang Yi (560311)
Yang Hui explained further.
"Currently, there are 171 students in the Elite Training Camp."
"Once Luo Feng passes the A-level assessment, both of you will enter together."
"Rankings are based on combat power points, from highest to lowest."
"Every single person here is a genius."
As he spoke, Yang Hui also explained the purpose of the rankings.
However, Luo Fan didn't care much about it.
Only by ranking first consecutively could one obtain some rewards.
That was a waste of time.
What mattered to him was directly challenging the Trial Tower or signing contracts with the Dojo to gain rewards.
He also noticed that there were slightly fewer students than in the original timeline.
This made sense, as the entry time for this session was eight months later than when Luo Feng entered in the original timeline.
Before long, Yang Hui took advantage of the noon break to bring the two of them to the Trial Tower.
Luo Fan tried to create a task to enter the Elite Training Camp.
However, he couldn't create it at all.
It seemed the system considered it too easy.
Then, Luo Fan tested his force again inside the Training Tower, achieving 42,033 kg.
Luo Feng went to take the A-level assessment.
Although Luo Feng wasn't as strong as in the original timeline,
He was only taking the A-level assessment.
With micro-level movement techniques and 2.1 times force, he smoothly passed the A-level test.
After completing the formalities, the two of them finally entered the camp smoothly.
"Big brother, there are so many amazing things in this training camp!"
"I think we'll definitely be able to improve our strength a lot here!"
At this moment, Luo Feng was in Luo Fan's room, speaking excitedly.
They were looking through the student guidelines for the training camp.
Luo Fan looked at the gravity chambers, challenge rooms, and the Trial Tower listed in the guidelines with no reaction at all.
It wasn't until Luo Feng flipped to the section about the rewards for reaching certain force levels and Training Tower levels that Luo Fan's eyes focused.
"When your force level reaches 4, you can receive a piece of jadeite as a reward."
Luo Feng's eyes lit up when he saw this.
"Big brother, doesn't this mean you can get a piece of jadeite?"
"Quickly follow the instructions above and apply for it!"
Luo Fan didn't speak; he was staring intently at the line below.
"When your punching force reaches level 6, you can receive: a batch of Dragon Blood worth 80 billion, an SS-level combat suit, a full set of weapons, and any three complete sets of manuals."
(PS: In the original story, the level 6 force reward listed the full set of weapons followed by an ellipsis, so I added the three complete sets of manuals. As for the Black God set, judging from the rewards on the fifth floor of the Training Tower, it also included two inspector positions and a Black God, so I didn't include the Black God set for punching force level 6.)
TL/N: The above is the author's note, not mine.
