Swallowed Star: Top Comprehension

Chapter 14: Meeting the Inspector and Practicing Swordsmanship

Early the next morning, New Year’s Day.

The chill of the night has not yet been completely dispelled, and a thin mist has already lingered on the quiet streets.

However, this tranquility did not last long.

"Crackling——"

As the sky gradually turned white, the houses on both sides of the street began to be awakened by the continuous sound of firecrackers.

The sound of these firecrackers, like fierce drumbeats, announces the arrival of the New Year to passers-by.

At this time, Chen Yue had already packed his bags and was heading to the Extreme Club in Jiangnan Base City by car.

He looked serious because Inspector Wang would arrive as promised today.

"drop--"

With the beeping sound of the access control system, Chen Yue swiped his card to enter the empty martial arts hall, went directly to the training ground on the 19th floor reserved for general-level warriors, and began to practice swordsmanship with great concentration.

Although he was confident in his own strength, Chen Yue still took it very seriously and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

When a lion fights a rabbit, he also uses all his strength.

--------

At the same time, in the main urban area of ​​Jiangnan Base City and the airport.

Zhou Zhengyong and three supervisors including Zhuge Tao gathered in the terminal hall, waiting for the arrival of Inspector Wang.

Zhuge Tao asked in confusion, "Why didn't Inspector Wang take his own fighter plane, but instead took a passenger plane?"

As martial arts hall inspectors and councillor-level strongmen, they can exchange many rare materials with their contribution points.

These include fighter jets that fly at speeds several times the speed of sound.

Not only is it fast, it's also very cool.

Zhou Zhengyong looked at him with a hint of displeasure. "Does the inspector need to explain to you the reasons for his actions?"

"I was just asking casually." Zhuge Tao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Ever since he made Zhou Zhengyong lose face in front of Chen Yue last time.

Zhou Zhengyong then found his brother, the God of War Zhuge Shan, and severely complained to him, leaving Zhuge Tao quite helpless.

At this moment——

Whoosh!
A figure cut through the sky like a phantom, and then slowly landed on the ground next to the terminal.

As the plane door opened, a thin man with a mustache walked out. He looked to be in his forties.

"Inspector Wang!" Zhou Zhengyong stepped forward and saluted respectfully, and the other three supervisors followed suit.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting. My fighter jet had some minor problems recently, so I can only come here by passenger plane temporarily." Inspector Wang explained with a slight nod.

"Let's go and head directly to the Jiangnan Extreme Gymnasium." Inspector Wang was the first to step into the business car that the martial arts gym had prepared in advance.

After everyone was on board, the vehicle accelerated smoothly and drove onto the airport highway.

In the carriage, Zhou Zhengyong tried to inquire, "Inspector, is the owner still in seclusion?"

"You kid, you are still the same, so impatient." Inspector Wang laughed and scolded, then he glanced at the driver in front of him.

"Please rest assured, Inspector, there are trustworthy people on board." Zhou Zhengyong quickly assured.

Inspector Wang nodded with satisfaction. "I have always been concerned about Chen Yue's situation. I contacted the museum owner yesterday."

"The museum owner ordered me to take Chen Yue to the headquarters first. He wants to personally evaluate Chen Yue."

"What?" Zhou Zhengyong was surprised.

I thought that to join the elite training camp, I only needed to pass the A-level assessment, but now the owner of the camp has to do the assessment himself.

"I knew you would be surprised." Inspector Wang nodded and continued, "If Chen Yue only wanted to join the elite training camp, I could make the decision alone. But the skills created by Chen Yue involve matters that are too serious..."

Zhou Zhengyong and others suddenly understood.

"Ever since I uploaded the video of Chen Yue's exercises to the headquarters, the top brass almost caused a small earthquake."

Inspector Wang joked, "Because of Chen Yue's incident, we didn't even have New Year's Eve last night. Instead, we discussed the matter at a round table meeting."

————————Soon after, the vehicle successfully arrived at the Jiangnan Base City Extreme Club.

Inspector Wang took the lead and got out of the car. He said, "Let's call Chen Yue. Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year, and the young people are probably still sleeping."

Zhou Zhengyong responded with a smile: "Inspector, Chen Yue came to the martial arts hall early in the morning. He is currently practicing martial arts on the 19th floor."

Inspector Wang was a little surprised and replied, "Yes!" Then he quickly walked upstairs.

"drink!"

Walking through the corridor, you can hear the shouts of warriors practicing their skills coming from the training ground.

There is no need to guess, you know it is Chen Yue's voice.

"Chen..." Just as Zhou Zhengyong was about to call Chen Yue, Inspector Wang waved his hand, signaling him not to make any sound.

Inspector Wang stood outside the door of the martial arts training ground, his eyes watching Chen Yue's every move through the half-open door.

There was a flash of appreciation in his eyes.

He is extremely talented, but not arrogant or impatient.

Such young people are indeed rare.

He didn't want to disturb him, so he just observed quietly, feeling the power and artistic conception contained in Chen Yue's swordsmanship.

Chen Yue didn't know all this, he was concentrating on his swordsmanship.

In the center of the martial arts training ground, Chen Yue's feet were firmly rooted on the ground.

His eyes were as sharp as a knife, staring intently at the space ahead. The air in the training ground seemed to become heavy because of his concentration.

The noise around him gradually dissipated, leaving only the sound of Chen Yue's breathing and heartbeat.

He gripped the sword tightly. The blade was thick and flashing with cold light, as if it could cut through the air.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yue tensed all his muscles and burst out with amazing strength.

His movements suddenly accelerated, the blade drew a sharp arc, and every swing was accompanied by a whistling sound.

The sword energy is so sharp that it seems to be able to cut through all obstacles!
As the sword technique unfolded, a hint of determination appeared between Chen Yue's brows.

The amplitude of his movements became larger, but the speed of his sword swinging did not decrease at all, and he carried out each move and each style with even more astonishing power.

Every time he swung his sword, it was so powerful that even the air was cut by the wind from his sword.

However, during this intense movement, Chen Yue had no distractions, and all his attention was focused on the sword in his hand and the sword techniques he was performing.

Inspector Wang looked at Chen Yue and nodded secretly in his heart.

He could feel that every time Chen Yue swung his sword, it was not a simple repetition, but a constant exploration and experimentation.

Finally, Chen Yue stopped the sword in his hand.

Although his forehead was covered with sweat and his breathing was a little rapid, his eyes were still clear and bright.

He shook his head slightly, feeling somewhat unwilling.

Just now, I seemed to have vaguely felt a hint of the sword intent, but I failed to grasp it at the last moment.

But this slight progress was enough to satisfy him.

Inspector Wang gently opened the door and walked in. He said calmly, "Chen Yue."

Chen Yue came back to his senses and saw Inspector Wang and his group. He instantly guessed Inspector Wang's identity.

He then took a step forward and bowed respectfully: "Inspector Wang! Sorry, I was too focused on practicing swordsmanship just now..."

Inspector Wang smiled slightly and nodded: "No problem!"

"I also want to see how you, a genius who almost caused a stir among the martial arts school's top brass, perform." Inspector Wang looked at Chen Yue with admiration in his eyes.

"Just now I saw that your swordsmanship contained a hint of sword spirit, which is very good! I don't think it is necessary to carry out the test I prepared for you today."

Chen Yue felt warm in his heart. Hearing such words was undoubtedly the greatest recognition of his efforts!
Inspector Wang thought for a moment and continued, "Go back and pack your things. Follow me to the martial arts school's global headquarters at noon tomorrow."

Chen Yue nodded firmly, "Thank you, Inspector Wang, I will definitely not let you down!"
