Ancheng.
One of the Wei Cities of Hua Zhong Base City.
On May 8th, in the Dojo of Limits at Tianfeng Community, He Yong, who was already a Mid-level Warlord, greeted other martial artists as usual when he suddenly caught sight of a familiar face.
He quickly walked over and warmly said, "Lao Hu, you've been coming to the Dojo more and more often lately.
What, are you planning to retire early like me?"
The martial artist surnamed Hu laughed, "I'm a bachelor, why retire so early?
Besides, I haven't killed enough monsters in the Wilderness Area yet."
He Yong couldn't help but feel strange.
"If you're not retiring, then what are you doing at the Dojo?
At our age, our potential is long exhausted, and training won't improve us.
With this time, you might as well go to the HR Alliance Mall and pick up a few girls; maybe you can even bring one home."
"You, you only know how to rush me into marriage."
The martial artist surnamed Hu glared at He Yong in annoyance.
"As for why I'm at the Dojo, of course, it's to test my punching power."
"Test your punching power?"
"Lao Hu, with your physical fitness that hasn't increased in months, is there really a need to test it?"
The two had a good relationship and often ribbed each other, neither taking offense.
If it were before, the martial artist surnamed Hu would definitely have ribbed him back, but this time he smiled mysteriously, "Whether there's a need or not, you'll know soon."
With that.
He walked towards the punching power testing machine.
He Yong wondered, "What's this guy up to?"
He mumbled and followed him.
Soon.
The martial artist surnamed Hu stood in front of the punching power testing machine, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
He wondered if the money he spent on continuous training in the Dojo and the Wilderness Area for the past two months was worth it, and this was the moment of truth.
Whoosh.
He took a deep breath.
He arched his body, lowered his waist, and then suddenly exerted force, slamming his fist heavily onto the punching target.
Boom!
Accompanied by the explosion of a sonic boom.
The data on the punching power testing machine surged, finally stopping at 35,100kg.
Seeing the data.
The martial artist surnamed Hu clenched his fists excitedly!
And beside him, He Yong's eyes instantly widened, staring fixedly at the number.
A punching power of thirty-five thousand.
This was already the punching power standard of an Advanced Warlord; although it was the lowest, it was still an Advanced Warlord!
Coming back to his senses.
He Yong looked at the martial artist surnamed Hu, his face filled with shock, "Lao Hu, you, what kind of powerful medicine did you take?
You actually crossed the Advanced Warlord standard.
Quick, hit two more punches."
Even if He Yong didn't say anything.
The martial artist surnamed Hu continued to test.
The data for the subsequent two punches were both around thirty-five thousand.
Seeing this.
He Yong couldn't stay calm.
His eyes gleamed as he asked, "Lao Hu, if I remember correctly, you tested your punching power a few months ago at the Dojo, and it was around twenty-six thousand, right?
In just a few months, it has skyrocketed by nearly ten thousand kilograms of punching power.
My goodness, what did you buy?"
The martial artist surnamed Hu laughed heartily, "Are you still ribbing me now?"
He Yong quickly said, "Lao Hu, hurry up.
At worst, I'll bring out that bottle of treasured old wine from home tonight."
The martial artist surnamed Hu's eyes lit up, and his inner craving for alcohol stirred.
"You said it, let's go find a quiet place."
The two sat down at a coffee shop near the community.
Seeing the martial artist surnamed Hu leisurely call the waiter, He Yong was so anxious his eyes almost popped out.
"I bought a Genetic Potion."
Upon hearing this.
He Yong frowned, "Lao Hu, I know about Genetic Potions, but their efficacy isn't that great, is it?"
Although Genetic Potions had side effects, most martial artists didn't care, because if they were buying such a thing, it meant they couldn't improve on their own.
The martial artist surnamed Hu lowered his voice, "It's not the kind you find on the market, but a new type of Genetic Potion.
It's said to have come from an ancient civilization ruin.
After consumption, it can elevate one to an Advanced Warlord within a year, and it's an Advanced Warlord close to a God of War."
He Yong's eyes widened, "A potion from an ancient civilization ruin?
Is it real or fake?"
The martial artist surnamed Hu shook his head, "How would I know, but its efficacy is truly strong.
Originally, I didn't believe it, but the one who gave me the potion was the captain of another team I've dealt with for many years.
He said we could sign a contract and try the potion first, so I took it with the idea of giving it a try, and who knew…"
At this point, his tone became excited, "In just two short months, I've surged by nearly ten thousand kilograms."
He Yong was completely moved by what he heard; the facts were laid bare before him.
He eagerly asked, "Is there more of this potion?
How much does it cost?"
"Not expensive, only two billion chinese yuan."
The martial artist surnamed Hu clenched his fists and grinned, "Originally, my heart ached, but now it seems the money was well spent.
Even if it doesn't increase further, with my current physical fitness, I can earn back the cost in at most one or two years!"
"Lao He, for the sake of our many years of friendship, I'm willing to tell you this.
The quantity of this potion is definitely not much, so buy it quickly.
If you don't have enough money, borrow it, or even take out a loan."
He Yong said without hesitation, "I'll buy it!"
…
Not only in Ancheng, but in other Wei Cities of Hua Zhong Base City, and within the city itself, two months after the news of the Genetic Potion spread in a small circle, it began to ferment at a hurricane-like speed.
After all, its efficacy was too strong, and martial artists simply couldn't resist it.
Any martial artist who learned of the news and had witnessed the potion's effects eagerly sought to purchase it, even if it meant losing everything.
Lishui District Villa.
Spacious balcony on the third floor.
Shen Ping was soaking in the swimming pool when he answered Qin Shan's call.
"Lao Shen, there are twenty martial artist orders today.
Do you have enough stock?"
Qin Shan said with a smile, from March until now, in just eight days, the number of martial artists seeking C-grade Genetic Potions had sharply increased.
Shen Ping replied, "Captain, don't worry, it's enough, definitely enough."
Hearing this.
Qin Shan felt much more at ease.
He hesitated for a moment, then reminded him, "The further we go, the more martial artists will seek to purchase it.
Lao Shen, you'd best be mentally prepared.
Money is secondary; the most crucial thing is that once the news completely spreads, various Global powers will likely come flocking, even those Councillor powerhouses."
"This potion will have a huge impact, and with our meager strength, we won't be able to protect it.
The best solution is to find a powerful force to cooperate with."
Shen Ping said solemnly, "I understand.
After some time, I plan to contact the military and the Dojo of Limits.
As long as we secure a cooperation, other Councillors won't dare to act recklessly."
Qin Shan nodded, "It's good that you understand."
Ending the call.
Shen Ping got out of the bath, changed his clothes, and went to the training hall.
The training hall in the Lishui District Villa was larger and better equipped than the one in Nanyuan Community.
He first practiced his blade techniques for two hours, reviewing the Ninefold Thunder Blade, which he had mastered, several times.
After expending a large amount of energy, he quickly cultivated the guiding technique to absorb the pure energy of the mu ya crystal.
Sizzle, sizzle.
The mu ya crystal energy, which was much higher in quality, not only nourished his body but also his spirit.
More than ten minutes passed.
His body cells reached a saturated state of absorption.
"As expected of the mu ya crystal.
At this rate of cultivation, in another one or two months, I'll be able to break through to Planetary Level Two, and then I'll reveal my true strength!"
