Swallowed Star: Drawing Talents

Elite Training Camp.

The scorching sun hanging high in the sky constantly showers down dazzling light.

Yang Wu and Yang Hui exited the virtual space, chatting as they walked out of the Nine-storied Tower and returned to the two-story阁楼 where they were temporarily residing.

“Ding Ling Ling…”

A pleasant and melodious ringtone sounded. Yang Hui opened his communication watch, quickly wiped away the beaming smile on his face, and solemnly pressed the answer button.

“Inspector Wang!”

A slightly hoarse voice came from the communication watch, paused, and then added.

“Yang Hui, bring Yang Wu to my place for a visit.”

“Right now!”

“Yes.”

Yang Hui quickly responded. Yang Wu's excellent performance in the virtual space would inevitably lead to a summons from above sooner or later.

However, he didn't expect the summons to come so quickly, almost immediately after leaving the virtual space.

When did the higher-ups become so efficient with their meetings?

“Yang Wu, let's go!”

“Inspector Wang wants to see you.”

Yang Hui waved his hand, immediately changed direction, and led Yang Wu to the next filming location.

Of the five great inspectors of the Limit Martial Arts Hall, only two were stationed in Hongning Base City. Among them, Inspector Liu was at the headquarters, mainly responsible for diplomacy.

As for Inspector Wang, due to his personality, he was stationed at the Elite Training Camp for a long time, mainly responsible for the training of geniuses.

Always stationed at the training camp?

No wonder he is the the ever-present Inspector Wang, and the protagonist come and go…

Passing through layers of small woods, the two entered the teacher building area and arrived at a seemingly ordinary villa.

After entering the villa, Yang Hui waited on the first floor, while Yang Wu followed the butler upstairs and soon stopped in front of a reception room.

“Mr. Yang Wu, the inspector is inside.”

Yang Wu pushed the door open and walked in, the door behind him gently closed by the old butler.

The reception room was large and empty.

In the center was a tea table, with no other furniture or plants.

Opposite the tea table, a thin man with a figure-eight mustache was sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, constantly turning a string of Buddhist beads in his hand.

On the tea table in front of him were scattered a few pages of paper, a purple clay teapot, and a cup of steaming tea.

The fragrance of the tea was overflowing, moistening the heart and lungs.

Yang Wu glanced around and quickly made a judgment: this was a otaku, and a senior one at that.

“Inspector.” Yang Wu bowed slightly.

The thin man stopped turning the Buddhist beads, opened his eyes, and looked at Yang Wu. When Yang Wu met those eyes, an invisible pressure suddenly enveloped his heart.

This pressure was not intentional, but a natural suppression from the life level.

The suppression was not very strong, as long as they didn't make eye contact, there was basically no problem.

“Sit.”

After sizing up Yang Wu, Inspector Wang smiled slightly, his attitude better than expected.

Yang Wu was not polite, and sat cross-legged on the floor, imitating Inspector Wang.

“This contract is the formal recruitment contract of my Limit Martial Arts Hall. Take a look and see if there are any problems.”

Inspector Wang pointed to the contract on the table and said indifferently.

Yang Wu picked up the contract and carefully looked at it.

Ordinary martial artists who join the Limit Martial Arts Hall do not receive any salary, but they also do not have any responsibilities. The Limit Martial Arts Hall does not have many requirements for them.

They are free to come and go!

Joining the martial arts hall and becoming a free martial artist is where this term comes from.

A formal recruitment contract is for recruiting the true core members of the Limit Martial Arts Hall, who receive more power and benefits, but also bear more obligations and responsibilities.

The previous genius training contract that Yang Wu signed with the Limit Martial Arts Hall allowed him to join other forces if he paid the contract penalty.

But after signing this contract, it means that he can no longer join other forces.

The contract mainly covers several aspects.

First, Yang Wu can receive 10 billion Chinese currency in activity funds every year, a treatment comparable to that of an inspector stationed in a base city.

Second, after Yang Wu formally signs the contract, he will immediately be assigned a separate cultivation room in the training camp, with the usage period tentatively set at three years.

What really surprised Yang Wu was the third page of the contract.

【If Party B reaches a force exertion amplitude of 4 times before September 1, 2056, they will receive: any set of secret manuals, a complete set, an S-grade weapon, and a complete set of S-grade combat suit.】

【If Party B reaches a force exertion amplitude of 5 times before December 1, 2056, and any one of their spear techniques or body techniques reaches the artistic conception level, they will receive: any three sets of secret manuals, a complete set of Black God Suit (must be repaid).】

【If Party B reaches a force exertion amplitude of 6 times before March 1, 2057, and their spear techniques and body techniques all reach the artistic conception level, they will receive: a plant and tree spirit, and a King-level intelligent fighter jet.】

【If Party B reaches level 5 of the Trial Tower before June 1, 2057, they will receive: a complete set of Black God Suit (no need to repay).】

【If Party B reaches level 6 of the Trial Tower before September 1, 2057, they will receive: a ancient civilization gravity chamber.】

Plant and tree spirit, King-level intelligent fighter jet, Black God Suit, ancient civilization gravity chamber.

Such generous conditions made it difficult for Yang Wu to refuse. Even if he had some expectations in his heart, he still did not expect the Limit Martial Arts Hall to offer such amazing treatment.

He was also familiar with the plant and tree spirit, after all, he had already taken it twice, and there were still a lot of residual medicinal effects in his body.

Moreover, the limit of physical fitness improved by the plant and tree spirit is only the peak of the advanced War God, which is not very attractive to him.

Most importantly, the rewards behind were more enviable and explosive than the last.

And now, he only needs to move his finger slightly and sign his name on the contract, and this free benefit will be his.

“What are your doubts?”

Inspector Wang stopped turning the Buddhist beads as he saw Yang Wu's hesitation, and slowly asked.

“Inspector, this first reward clause…”

Yang Wu expressed his doubts. How did this first reward clause feel like it was being given away for free?

As long as he signed his name, he could immediately receive any set of secret manuals, a complete set, an S-grade weapon, and a complete set of S-grade combat suit.

“You're right, it's being given away for free!”

“This first reward clause was temporarily modified by Hall Master Hong when you reached the 4th floor of the Trial Tower, as an extra reward for you.”

“This entire contract was personally drafted by the hall master. When it was issued, it caused quite a bit of disagreement from other inspectors.”

“Among them, the ancient civilization gravity chamber is so precious that even our inspectors are extremely jealous, and this reward is also personally issued to you by the hall master.”

Yang Wu nodded. The rewards were rich, but the conditions were not simple either.

Even if Luo Feng came, he would not be able to complete these conditions, but for a cheater like himself, it was simply a freebie.

Yang Wu no longer hesitated and immediately signed his name on the contract. Signing the formal recruitment contract meant that he was a true core member of the Limit Martial Arts Hall.

“Well, the first contract reward will be delivered to your hand tonight, you go back and wait!”

Inspector Wang took the contract, nodded, then closed his eyes again, turning the ancient Buddhist beads in his hand, signaling that Yang Wu could leave.
