Chapter 116
Shangguan Ling laughed and looked at the indifferent young man beside him. He said, “Zhao Lie, three Grade 5 Exotic Marrow should be enough for your flame control talent to advance to the next level.”
The indifferent young man had a mocking smile on his face. Rings of red flames appeared around him.
“Of course. Zhao Lie thanks Instructor Dong Qingxue.”
“Elemental-type talent?!” Dong Qingxue’s pupils constricted and her face soured.
Qin Shaojun cursed, “Fuck you, Shangguan Ling. How dare you cheat! Elemental-type talent shouldn’t be written in the data!”
Shangguan Ling’s expression was extremely smug. He laughed and said, “Who said that everything must be written down? You’re stupid! Three Grade 5 Exotic Marrow, hahaha ...”
With that, Shangguan Ling left with the young man named Zhao Lie.
When the two figures were completely out of sight ...
Dong Qingxue, who had a hideous expression, and Qin Shaojun, who was so angry that his face was flushed red, returned to normal. They looked at the two figures and said the same word at the same time.
“Idiot!”
Lu Sheng, “...”
“What do you think? My performance just now was not bad, right? Did it feel like I was acting?” Qin Shaojun said to Lu Sheng with a grin.
Dong Qingxue’s face was also full of sarcasm. “It’s an unspoken rule to hide part of one’s strength in the data. Only an idiot like Shangguan Ling would think that I would do that. Elemental-type talent is powerful, indeed. I wonder how it compares to a Level 3 Spiritual Master?”
“Don’t say that. It makes me want to laugh again ... Hahaha ...” Qin Shaojun could not help but cover his mouth.
Lu Sheng looked at the two of them as if he was meeting them for the first time. He could not help but feel deep sympathy for Shangguan Ling, who was still immersed in his pride.
He did not know how that big idiot got to the position of a Colonel. Wasn’t he just a simpleton?
“The Shangguan family has never been on good terms with our Dong family and the Qin family. Shangguan Ling is also famous for his foul mouth. Every time we meet, he will say something sarcastic to us. Do your best, Lu Sheng. Whether we can smash his face this time depends on your performance ...”
Qin Shaojun patted Lu Sheng’s shoulder earnestly and said, “If you help us win this round, I’ll give you my Grade 5 Exotic Marrow.”
“I’ll try my best.” Lu Sheng said.
Qin Shaojun’s face fell instantly. “You don’t have any confidence in your words. I suddenly regret agreeing to Shangguan Ling’s bet.”
“Alright, we’re about to enter.” Dong Qingxue reminded him and then led the two of them forward.
A huge elevator column stood in the middle of the square. Almost every elevator had a combination of an officer and a young man standing in front of it. The young man walked into the elevator and went down.
It was obvious that the Qiming General Selection that Lu Sheng and the others were going to attend was to be held below the base.
Dong Qingxue and Qin Shaojun walked Lu Sheng to an elevator and pressed the button.
“We’ll leave you here. There will be people who will explain the rules of the selection to you ...”
“Kid from Dongning Province, good luck.”
“Thank you.” Lu Sheng replied softly.
Kacha —
The metal door closed completely. Lu Sheng spread out his spiritual power and clearly sensed that something was waiting for him in front.
Huff, huff, huff—
The sound of heavy breathing accompanied Lu Sheng’s slow approach. A two-meter-tall, five-meter-long beast appeared in front of him.
This beast looked a little like a wild boar, but its mouth was full of dense, one-foot-long protruding teeth.
Its body was covered in a dark gray mane, and its two-meter-long tail was almost entirely made of black poisonous spikes.
“Level 2 Black-toothed Saber Boar ...” Lu Sheng grinned at the monster, revealing a row of neat, snow-white teeth. “I’ve eaten your flesh!”
The next moment, Lu Sheng’s figure disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was right above the Black-toothed Saber Boar’s head.
Roar!
The Black-toothed Sabre Boar let out an ear-piercing growl. Its eyes were incomparably red, and its entire body emitted a cruel and tyrannical aura.
“Pegasus ...” Lu Sheng raised his right fist, his eyes blazing like stars, and softly uttered a name that only he could understand.
“Meteor Fist!*”
[*A Saint Seiya reference.]
Boom!
As the fist landed, the back half of the enormous Black-toothed Boar’s body exploded. It was like a black sack with the bottom leaking out.
The terrifying power of the fist penetrated its body and exploded, forming a fan-shaped bloody area behind the Black-toothed Sabre Boar.
It was a complete mess.
“So weak?” Lu Sheng landed lightly and looked at his fist.
Although it was only a Level 2 Exotic Beast, logically speaking, it shouldn’t be that weak.
“It seems like I’ve become stronger ...” Lu Sheng fell into deep thought.
During the battle just now, he naturally entered the first form of the Absolute Martial Path.
This was a very strange state.
Lu Sheng’s control over his own power had reached an unprecedented and unimaginable level. So much so that even without using any force exertion techniques, his basic fist strength had reached an astonishing level. One punch was enough to blow up a Level 2 Black-toothed Sabre Boar.
“Condensing power, exploding at a fixed point, identifying weaknesses ... It’s as if I’ve reached an omniscient and omnipotent state.”
“Omniscient, omnipotent.”
