Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

When they returned from the tunnel and reached the entrance, Yu Yang showed his pass again and they were able to enter the city.

"It went pretty smoothly this time. I'm back so soon." Xie Jianfeng said with a smile.

“It went quite smoothly.”

Yu Yang looked at Jiang Cheng and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, this mission is completed. The next step is your own time. You can return to the base or go to the academy. In a week, we will carry out the mission again, just like this time. I will notify you one or two days in advance."

"Okay, thank you, Captain. I'll go back first."

Jiang Cheng said.

"Okay, be safe."

Yu Yang smiled and waved.

After Jiang Cheng walked away completely, he turned around to look at the other members of the team and said, "How was it? Did he perform well this time? His temper doesn't seem to be as bad as the rumors say?"

"So what? We didn't encounter any special situation this time. If we really did, it would be strange if he didn't hold us back." There was a hint of disgust in the curly-haired girl's eyes.

"Yes, captain, if possible, it is better to replace him." The deputy captain also said.

Xie Jianfeng didn't say anything, just nodded, obviously agreeing with the other two.

"alright."

Yu Yang felt helpless.

Although he is the captain, he also has to listen to everyone's opinions. Changing someone else might be better than Jiang Cheng.

On the other side, Jiang Cheng was on his way to the base.

He was not blind. Except for the team leader Yu Yang, the attitudes of the others towards him were somewhat cold. Even Xie Jianfeng seemed enthusiastic but was actually hypocritical.

However, he doesn't care too much about these things, because no matter where you are, your own strength is the first priority. If you are weak, others will look down on you. If you are strong, others will treat you differently and even take the initiative to curry favor with you.

This is human nature, there is nothing to say.

After walking a few dozen meters, the cell phone on his body vibrated slightly. Jiang Cheng took out the phone curiously and took a look. His pupils dilated unconsciously.

Because the person who called him was actually Chu Feng!
"Why would the leader contact me?"

Jiang Cheng began to murmur in his heart.

Could it be because of the Calming Bead? I also need to ask myself if I have encountered any problems in my cultivation?
Thinking of this, he felt a little helpless and immediately answered the phone.

"Hey, Chief."

"Well, Brother Jiang, I received news from the entrance. Have you returned after completing the mission?" Chu Feng asked with a smile.

"Yes, I just returned to the city not long ago, and I plan to go to the base to practice for a while." Jiang Cheng said truthfully.

"Okay, I happen to be in the base as well. Let me have someone wait for you at the door. When you arrive, just follow her to find me. The chief wants to see you, so remember to behave well."

"The chief wants to see me?"

Jiang Cheng was shocked. It was really unexpected.

"Yeah, don't worry, this is not the first time you meet her. Okay, come quickly." Chu Feng said and hung up the phone.

"Why does the big boss suddenly want to see me? Is it because I defeated her in the challenge mode that she wants to see me?"

Jiang Cheng felt that this was most likely the reason.

Then I felt a little amused and helpless.

They quickly arrived at the entrance of the base. A staff member was standing at the entrance and recognized Jiang Cheng at a glance.

Under her leadership, Jiang Cheng followed her to the outside of a training room.

"Here?" Jiang Cheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Just then, the door opened, revealing Chu Feng's figure.

"Come on, come in, Master has been waiting for you."

Jiang Cheng nodded, walked in, and looked up. Sure enough, an old woman with a cane was in the room, looking at him with a smile. "Click."

With a slight sound, Chu Feng closed the door.

It was this sound that made Jiang Cheng react. He bowed and said, "Jiang Cheng greets the great leader!"

"Hehe, no need to be so polite."

Wan Lin waved his hand and walked towards Jiang Cheng, saying, "You are quite good. You can actually defeat me, who is at the level of a Force Warrior."

"I'm just lucky." Jiang Cheng said hurriedly.

"Lucky?" Wan Lin showed a meaningful smile on his face. "Not necessarily? I've watched all your battle videos. Your speed of improvement is second to none in our base."

"This one……"

Jiang Cheng was speechless.

"Would you like to have a sparring match with the old lady?"

"?"

Jiang Cheng opened his eyes wide and looked at the other person.

So, the chief asked me to come here to test my strength personally?
"Of course, I won't take advantage of you, old lady."

Wan Lin turned around and looked at the screen in front of him. "You and I are both fighting with the strength of a level 10 Force Warrior. If you win, you can tell me what you want. As long as it's not too much, I can agree to it."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up.

"Of course, there is only one."

"One is pretty good," Jiang Cheng said hurriedly, and then asked, "What if I lose?"

"If you lose, then you have to refine twice as many pills every day for a month. How about that?" Wan Lin turned around and asked with a smile, "That should be fair, right?"

"unfair."

Jiang Cheng shook his head.

"?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng, who had been smiling, froze his smile.

Shouldn't it?

Based on his understanding of Jiang Cheng, the latter is not the kind of person who would take advantage of others.

"Oh? How is that unfair?"

The expression on Wan Lin's face didn't seem to have changed. Instead, she asked with interest.

"It's unfair to you, Chief." Jiang Cheng said.

There was silence in the room at first, and then Wan Lin and Chu Feng both started laughing.

"You kid are quite cunning." Wan Lin scolded with a smile.

"I am just telling the truth." Jiang Cheng shook his head again. "If I lose, I will just spend two more hours refining pills every day. I won't suffer any loss, and the contribution points I get will not decrease at all. But if I win, at least I can get another real martial art from you, the great leader. If it is a treasure, it will be even more valuable."

"Brother Jiang, you are really cunning." Chu Feng said with a smile.

At first glance, it seemed that Jiang Cheng was trying to flatter Wan Lin and make her happy.

In fact, he was secretly inquiring about how much benefit he could get from the latter.

Wan Lin naturally heard it and said with a smile: "There are not many treasures in the base, but there are also many. What do you want? Wait until you defeat me first."

"Junior will definitely try his best." A gleam of light flashed in Jiang Cheng's eyes. Since the last time he defeated the big leader in the virtual combat system, he is now more proficient in telekinetic weapons and has reached the perfect level.

In addition, he has already perfected his physical skills, so he is not afraid even if he faces a real-life version of the big boss.
