Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 39 Contract

Zhou Yang curiously picked up the contract on the table.

The contract was very simple, consisting of only three pages.

The first two pages mainly discuss some agreements that need to be followed and daily expenses.

What's really important are the five limited-time reward terms on the last page!

"If Party B achieves a combat power amplification of 12 before December 5, 2057, Party B will receive a complete set of 9-series combat uniforms and weapons, a complete set of any secret manuals, and a portion of Dragon Blood worth 80 billion."

「乙方在2057年5月1号——2058年8月1号前，战力振幅达到12，可获得9系作战服、兵器全套，价值300亿玉髓一滴。」

"If Party B achieves a combat power amplification of 8 before December 1, 2059, Party B will receive a full set of SS-level combat uniforms and weapons, one share of Dragon Blood worth 80 billion, a complete set of any three secret manuals, and a set of the ancient civilization relic 'Black God'."

"Party B."

There are five reward clauses in total, and each one is very tempting.

Putting everything else aside, just the complete set of 9-series combat uniforms, weapons, and all the secret manuals would cost at least hundreds of billions of Chinese yuan if he were to buy them himself.

However, according to the contract, as long as the above requirements are met within the specified time, these items can be obtained for free.

Of course, the requirements are also daunting.

According to the student handbook issued by the War God Training Camp.

战力振幅1-2是初等，2-4是中等，4-8是高等，而8-16则是优等！

Among the more than 180 trainees in this training camp, the current number one trainee's combat power amplitude has only just reached 15.

Throughout history, those whose combat power amplitude can reach 16 are extremely rare.

Generally speaking, if your combat power amplitude reaches 12, you can probably get into the top 20 of the rankings!

With a combat power fluctuation of 13, a top-ten finish is practically guaranteed.

Zhou Yang has now mastered the second level of "World Destruction," with a power level of 3.

With the Trial Tower level increased to 3.1, the total combat power amplitude is 9.3.

So, it's not too far off from the first requirement of 12.

He can meet the requirements as long as he can master the third level of "World Destruction" or pass the third level of the Trial Tower.

However, according to the contract, there is a time limit to receive the contract rewards.

The sooner you meet the requirements, the greater the reward will be.

He could only receive the highest reward if he met the requirements before May 1, 1957.

He had only been practicing the third level of "World Destruction" for four months, but he was still somewhat unsure of himself.

"Have you finished watching?"

At this moment, Inspector Wang, sitting across from him at the tea table, asked a question with a faint smile.

"I've finished watching it."

Zhou Yang nodded in agreement, "Your Excellency Inspector, I have no problem."

Without further ado, he picked up a pen and neatly signed his name on the contract.

Seeing his decisiveness, Inspector Wang smiled.

"Very good, Zhou Yang, welcome to the Extreme Martial Arts Academy!"

December 57, 1.

In his residence at Jiangnan Pavilion, Zhou Yang was sitting on the sofa talking on the phone with his mother, Wang Shumei.

"Mom, you told Dad not to go to the wilderness anymore. I've signed a new contract with the martial arts school, and the annual funding is 50 billion, which is enough for our family's expenses."

"Your dad insists he can't stay idle at home and can't bear to part with his old buddies; I can't persuade him otherwise."

Wang Shumei's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yangyang, don't worry about home. Just listen to your teacher and don't be lazy. I heard from the martial artists in our neighborhood that the competition in that training camp is fierce."

"Okay, Mom, don't worry."

Zhou Yang chatted with Wang Shumei for a few more minutes before hanging up the phone.

"Everything's been arranged at home, so let's begin my training plan!"

January and February are the months when the elite training camp is on holiday.

By this time, most of the trainees had already left the training camp and returned to their homes.

Martial artists are, after all, human beings, and they all have their own family and friends, so it's impossible for them to truly immerse themselves solely in cultivation.

Of course, some people stayed.

Some are single and have no ties.

Some wanted to take advantage of this time to train intensively and strive for a good result in the March rankings.

Zhou Yang was one of them.

Having just signed a limited-reward contract with the martial arts school, he naturally had to work hard to obtain the highest reward!

In his plan, he will devote all his energy to practicing the "World Destroyer" spear technique, striving to successfully comprehend the third level of power exertion before May 1st.

When his power level increases to 4, his total combat power amplitude will exceed 12, which will meet the first reward requirement in the contract!

Just then, his phone, which he had just placed beside him, rang again.

"Huh, the teacher's on the phone?"

Zhou Yang was taken aback, but quickly answered the call.

"Hello, teacher, Nine-Story Tower? Okay, I'll be right there!"

He put down his phone, casually threw on a coat, and quickly left through the gate of Jiangnan Pavilion.

Most of the trainees have already gone home on vacation, and the roads around the training camp are rather deserted.

Zhou Yang jogged slowly and soon entered the towering nine-story building.

Upon reaching the ninth floor, he immediately spotted the gaunt old man with white hair, sitting leisurely on the sofa in the lobby with his eyes closed.

"teacher!"

He quickly stepped forward.

"You're here?"

Teacher Dong Dao, who looked like an old man, opened his eyes and glanced at him, a kind smile appearing on his face.

"Teacher, why did you call me here?"

Zhou Yang asked with a smile.

"It's nothing serious."

Teacher Dong Dao smiled with narrowed eyes, but asked in return:

"You signed a reward contract with the martial arts school a couple of days ago. How's it going? Are you confident about meeting the time requirements?"

When this was mentioned, Zhou Yang scratched his head and said truthfully:

"I'm not confident either. I've only just mastered the second level of 'World Destruction'. I'm not sure I can master the third level in four months. I'm planning to cram in these next few months."

"Hmm, it's good that you have this idea yourself."

Teacher Dong Dao nodded, "If you work hard, the teacher will also give you a push."

He looked at Zhou Yang with a smile, his face full of satisfaction.

"I've already applied to the martial arts school. For the next two months, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for one hour each day until February 28th. I hope this will be of some help to you."

"what?"

Upon hearing Dong Dao's words, Zhou Yang was instantly stunned.

"Teacher, isn't the gravity chamber closed to students for the next two months?"

"Haha, that's how it should be normally, but don't you know who your teacher is?"

Dong Dao, his white hair gleaming, grinned so hard his face was creased with wrinkles. He continued, a smug look on his face:

"Your teacher is a veteran of the martial arts school. Over the years, I've risked my life for the school and accumulated quite a few contribution points. Exchanging them for dozens of hours of gravity chamber usage time during this vacation is a piece of cake."

"teacher"

Hearing this, Zhou Yang was deeply moved.

He understood that although Teacher Dong spoke lightly, it must have actually cost a lot.

It's worth noting that the various ancient civilization facilities in the elite training camp are something that even the most powerful warriors would covet.

This elite training camp has at least dozens of instructors who are considered "gods of war."

These teachers can only use their contribution points to exchange for usage time in the Ancient Civilization Room during their annual vacation.

At least dozens of War God teachers are vying for the right to use the equipment for these two months, so the competition must be fierce.

Teacher Dong directly redeemed nearly sixty hours of gravity chamber usage time for himself, which must have cost a considerable amount.

"Alright, stop getting sentimental."

Dong Dao gently waved his hand, stopping Zhou Yang from saying anything more.

"I'm an old man and I don't have many children. It's not uncommon for me to run into a student like you, so it's only right that I help you out."

"So, you'll use up this one hour of your cultivation time before six o'clock every morning, and spend the rest of the time with me in the wilderness."

"Real combat, where life and death are the fastest way to improve marksmanship, is something that the virtual space of the battle room still lacks."

"Yes, teacher!"

Zhou Yang responded loudly.
