Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 18 Movement Techniques and Recruiting Talent

Yang Wu's cry of pain at this moment naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Many people had seen Luo Feng standing with them before, so he had garnered a lot of attention.

Bai Yang knew when to stop. This kind of help to Yang Wu would have taken a long time to absorb, and today was enough.

Yang Wu was soaked to the bone, panting heavily and looking extremely tired, but his eyes were full of joy.

Not only was he outwardly unharmed and painless, but he could also feel a tremendous change in his body!

His physical exertion also recovered extremely quickly; the actual test was coming up soon, and he would know the results immediately.

He quickly smiled and responded to the inquiring glances from those around him, indicating that he was fine.

Bai Yang glanced at him and said with satisfaction, "Go and do the practical test yourself in a bit. Be careful not to push yourself too hard, understand?"

Yang Wu, filled with awe, readily agreed, saying he would immediately inform him of any problems he might have with his body.

Seeing that he was so sensible, Bai Yang realized that some things didn't need explaining, and that he had helped the right person.

Luo Feng returned quickly, and the two of them tacitly avoided mentioning the matter.

They were just waiting to move forward with the others, officially enter the wilderness area, and arrive at a small town completely enclosed by barbed wire.

The martial artist's practical assessment involves facing the weakest H-rank monsters, equivalent to the "beginner warrior level" among martial artists.

Iron-haired wild boars, shadow cats, and tiger mastiffs are the enemies they will have to face in this monster town.

For quasi-martial artists who have not acquired genetic energy, there is still considerable danger.

That's why so many people fail each time, and some even lose their lives.

As with previous years, they need to start the assessment at 6:30 p.m. tonight and it won't end until 6:30 a.m. tomorrow.

The more monsters you kill during the event, the more points you earn.

For every monster killed, its left ear must be cut off as proof.

The prospective martial artists are forbidden from killing each other. All activities of the examinees are under surveillance, and violators will be executed on the spot!

Only those who rank in the top 60% of the final points will qualify as martial artists.

That is to say, out of 1681 people, approximately 1009 passed and 672 were eliminated.

Generally, you can pass the test by hunting down a three-headed monster.

The ranking is then determined based on the time spent killing monsters and the extent of injuries sustained.

Therefore, once you've killed a certain number of monsters, you can usually leave the town as soon as possible.

If someone is seriously injured, they can press the SOS button on their communication watch.

Someone will provide immediate assistance, but this also signifies the end of the assessment.

After everyone entered, most of them quickly dispersed and began hunting their prey.

"Brother Yang, are you going to venture into this monster town all by yourself?" Luo Feng and Yang Wu stood by the wall of a dilapidated small supermarket.

Yang Wu nodded solemnly and said, "Madman, this martial arts combat assessment is not just an exam, but more importantly, a test of courage! When you actually enter dangerous areas alone in the future, the dangers you encounter will be ten or a hundred times greater than this. If we need your help even for this monster town, what will become of us in the future?"

Luo Feng nodded: "That's right, Brother Yang, be careful. Brother Bai Yang disappeared as soon as we came in, but he'll definitely be alright."

"Of course, we'll meet outside the town at dawn tomorrow." After saying that, Yang Wu carefully looked around, then quickly ran away.

Luo Feng also quickly darted into the shadows.

-

Bai Yang was strolling around the heart of the town, which was, after all, a wilderness area.

He has too many things he wants to do, and it's not worth wasting time hiding himself. Being alone is much more convenient.

With his strength, he naturally arrived at the center of the town with incredible speed.

Whether it's the "Shadow Cat" among feline monsters that wins with speed, the "Iron-haired Boar" that wins with powerful defense, or the "Tiger Mastiff" among canine monsters that is extremely fast and strong.

They were like paper stakes in front of him; as he rampaged through the road, he was bound to encounter a few of them.

After a flash of sword light, the world became quiet again, and he casually cut off their ears.

At this moment, many people in the monitoring hall outside the town witnessed this scene.

"How...how long?" an officer asked in a dry voice.

"This Bai Yang, from entering the room to defeating 5 monsters and ensuring his advancement, took... 3 minutes and 27 seconds! His assessment is over!"

The clerk responsible for monitoring Bai Yang's monitor screen spoke cautiously.

A burly man watched all this and whispered, "What was the fastest speed you've ever reached before?"

The clerk then pulled up the historical records and read aloud, "Two hours and twenty..."

"That's enough, we know." The officer and the burly man waved their hands to interrupt at the same time, indicating that there was no need to listen any further.

The burly Wang Heng looked at his good brother and murmured, "Iron Monkey, how long did it take us back then?"

The officer waved his hand impatiently and said, "Why bother with this? What's the point? Who is this guy?"

"permission denied!?"

A standard prompt silenced the two powerful figures instantly.

If you can't stand him, then look at the others.

But then, the aspiring martial artists from all over the town demonstrated what "normal level" meant.

The two of them didn't notice anything particularly remarkable until they got so bored that they started drinking.

Around 8 p.m., the two finally discovered some fun on screen number 21.

"A microscopic movement technique!" Wang Heng's eyes gleamed as he stared intently at Luo Feng, who was under attack from the five shadow cat monsters.

Luo Feng's movements were small each time he dodged, and he skillfully and easily avoided the attacks of each shadow cat. His leisurely and carefree demeanor completely won him over!

Even many warrior-level experts cannot achieve the level of microscopic movement techniques.

"His movement technique has actually reached the 'Subtlety' level. Unbelievable, unbelievable!" He gasped. "He's only 18 years old. Movement technique is different from physical fitness. If you have good talent, your physical fitness will be strong. But movement technique requires accumulating experience through repeated battles and building a solid foundation before you can gradually reach the 'Subtlety' level."

"How do you know he's 18?" the officer asked, startled. "Do you know him?"

"His name is Luo Feng. Damn it, he got recruited by the Limitless Martial Arts Academy ahead of schedule," Wang Heng said angrily. "The Limitless Martial Arts Academy really got incredibly lucky. This Luo Feng is only 18 years old, and not only is his physical fitness outstanding, but his movement technique is also astonishing! It's at the Microscopic Level! So young, and his movement technique has already reached the Microscopic Level. What will he be like in the future?"

"What are you planning to do?" the officer asked with a smile.

"What? Poaching him!" Wang Heng of Thunder Martial Arts School glared. "Poaching him! Limit Martial Arts School probably hasn't realized how amazing this young man's agility is yet. I'm poaching him first! It's just money, right? Hmph! What luck! This year, such a powerful kid has emerged. Compared to him, Wan Dong is a million miles away!"

At this moment, the officer suddenly asked in confusion, "Then what kind of movement technique did Bai Yang use?"

Wang Heng was also taken aback, and quickly said, "Retrieve Bai Yang's video recording again and zoom in on the screen!"

The clerk immediately operated the system, projecting the process of Bai Yang killing the monster onto the main screen.

At this moment, everyone in the hall couldn't help but look over.
