Chapter 17 Life Energy Levels
"Ding"

We arrived at the 65th floor, which seemed to be a place for exercise. There were many busy people in each room. Virtual projections and large screens could be seen everywhere, quantifying body data so as to find the best way to exercise.

There are several special training rooms, the scenes inside of which cannot be seen from the outside.

Their group made such a big noise that they attracted a lot of people's attention. Someone familiar came up and asked what happened. Then they looked at Li Ming with a look of gloating.

"The feud between Zhao Xiong and Yang Peng has been going on for a long time, and this guy has run into the crossfire."

"... "

"This is it." Zhao Xiong took Li Ming to an empty training room, where there was a long track and a punching machine.

"If you want to join the City Defense Department, your minimum energy level must be 0.5G." Zhao Xiong looked around and saw so many people here. He was very satisfied here.

When this matter is over, it won’t take half a day for everyone in the city’s defense department to know about it.

"0.5G?" Li Ming frowned slightly. Is this a measurement method? His predecessor really had no memory of this aspect.

"Ha..." Seeing his reaction, the people behind Zhao Xiong burst into laughter.

"This is a method for calculating the energy levels of living organisms, and it is universal across the stars." Li Ning came over hurriedly and whispered, "First, try to delay time. Some of these people have a good relationship with us, and they should have already informed Captain Yang."

"Energy level calculation method..." Li Ming nodded thoughtfully and said calmly: "I'm sorry, I was bullied at school before, so I applied for home study. No one has taught me systematically."

The sound in the entire training room was stagnant again, and everyone looked at each other. No one dared to laugh this time. This was another extremely tricky and sensitive topic.

Who dares to laugh? Get out tomorrow!

Li Ning beside him looked at him in amazement. No, where did those old hands get this information?

Is this cowardice? Which reason is not the most sensitive of the sensitive, a fatal blow.

It's quieter here now than when the ministers are in a meeting!

The corners of Zhao Xiong's mouth twitched slightly, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but in the end he could only say: "Let's start."

"Captain Zhao, I was bullied at home before and have never been exposed to these things, so I want to familiarize myself with them first. Is that ok?" Li Ming showed an inquiring look.

No, brother, is there anyone who dares to bully you? Everyone looked at him strangely, are you bullying us?

Zhao Xiong took a deep breath. No matter whether what Li Ming said was true or false, at least he couldn't refuse now.

"can."

Li Ming walked to the target machine, pondered for a moment, and finally threw a simple punch.

boom!
"Ding"

On the big screen above the punch target machine, a huge number appeared - 0.3G
"About that. A kid of his age, without systematic training, has just this much strength." The surroundings became noisy again, with people discussing in low voices.

No one was surprised, except Zhao Xiong, who had a look of suspicion. The boy's posture when he attacked did not look like that of an untrained person.

"0.3 is not bad. With some practice, I should be able to raise it to 0.5 within two months..." Li Ning thought subconsciously. As long as he could get by today, he would have time to make up for it.

"Have you tried it?" Zhao Xiong's voice became much deeper, with a look of urgency in his eyes.

"Captain Zhao... Li Ming he..." Li Ning opened his mouth, trying to delay time, but heard a muffled sound from behind.

boom!
"Ding!"

Li Ning suddenly realized that the surroundings had become quiet again. Everyone's eyes were filled with surprise and shock, and Zhao Xiong's eyes, which were already sinister, looked even more sinister. Li Ning turned around subconsciously and his pupils suddenly contracted. He saw a number appear on the screen above the punching target machine again - 0.6G.

.........

"Captain Yang, if Zhao Xiong gets the chance this time, I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome. The review team of the Interstellar Alliance and the accompanying personnel from Blue Star are coming soon. Now is a sensitive moment, and this kind of violation will be magnified."

Yang Peng hurried into the gate of the City Guard Department with a gloomy face, and the people around him were chattering.

"There is still time. Please contact the section chief and have him cross out his name. It is probably a system error at best."

"Lao Dao, now that Zhao Xiong has run into us, it won't be that simple. There are so many people in the training room, it will be useless even if we cross them out." Yang Peng shook his head, knowing that the matter would not be resolved so easily.

"But shouldn't Li Ming be here this morning? I'm lucky. Zhao Xiong had a mission in the morning, so how come he bumped into me in the afternoon?"

"I don't know. Xiao Li is still a bit rough in doing things." Lao Dao sighed, turned around and sat up. The two of them had already got on the elevator.

"Zhao Xiong!" As soon as the elevator door opened, Yang Peng's stern shout echoed throughout the training room, and everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look.

However, what surprised Yang Peng was that he did not see mockery or gloating in the eyes of the people present, but instead another kind of indescribable expression.

Ok?
Zhao Xiong walked straight over, looking grim, staring coldly at Yang Peng, "You picked the right timing, Yang Peng, I underestimated you."

Yang Peng was puzzled. Lao Dao beside him felt his throat twitch and said hesitantly, "Captain Yang, look."

Yang Peng looked in the direction he pointed, and in the transparent glass room, the eye-catching 0.6g on the punch target machine was clearly visible.

Standing in front of the punching machine was the thin-looking Li Ming, and next to him was Li Ning, with a wide grin on his face.

How can it be! ?
Yang Peng subconsciously didn't believe it. He knew Li Ming inside and out. Let alone 0.6, even 0.3 would be difficult, after all, he had never had systematic training since childhood.

But he soon realized what was happening and sneered, "Zhao Xiong, you've crossed the line this time. What does our team's newcomers have to do with you?"

"I just want to help Captain Yang avoid some trouble." Zhao Xiong snorted.

"Whether it is true or not, the section chief will make his own judgment." Yang Peng responded sharply, and the two exchanged glances. Zhao Xiong quickly moved away and left with his men.

"This... is this Captain Zhao being tricked by Captain Yang?"

"Isn't it obvious? Captain Yang acted in violation of regulations and deliberately let Captain Zhao find out. But now he is fine. Captain Zhao has become a clown."

"Just wait, this matter will soon spread throughout the city guard department..."

I'm so awesome?
Yang Peng muttered to himself and walked straight towards Li Ming and the other man.

"Captain Yang..." Li Ning was very excited and came forward, but what he received was a barrage of scolding: "What's going on? Shouldn't the formalities have been completed this morning? How did Zhao Xiong catch us?!"

"Captain Yang, I was delayed by something this morning." Li Ming took the initiative to say, and Li Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone around curled their lips and said, "Go on, act now, do the whole thing, right? And you still say you didn't let Zhao Xiong catch you on purpose?"
"Be careful next time." Yang Peng scolded, and then looked at the punch target machine, "Is this your strength?"

"Well, I tried my best to play it out." Li Ming explained.

"When did you start exercising?" Yang Peng asked casually.

"It's been a while. My father forced me to start it." Li Ming explained, putting all the blame on Li Changhai.

"Yeah." Yang Peng didn't know whether to believe it or not, so he didn't chat much here, and they went to the 223rd floor.
