After obtaining the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method, there wasn't much else to do.
The instructor, Jiang Nian, said to Luo Xia and the others:
"Alright, that's all for today's Provisional Warrior assessment. The four of you can go home now.
Your Provisional Warrior certificates need to be stamped and your citizen ID information entered into the system. It'll take a few days. You'll be notified when they're ready. Okay, you can all leave now."
"Yes, Instructor."
Luo Xia and the others bid farewell to the instructor and left the training hall. At the entrance of the Limit Hall, they were watched as they left the residential area by soldiers armed with firearms.
Next, Luo Xia and the other three who passed the assessment had a meal together in the commercial district near Mingyue Residential Area. It was a way of making friends. Then, they parted ways and went home.
On the way back, the two brothers still took the subway.
"I didn't expect that Bai Yang was from Jiangnan No. 1 Military Academy."
On the subway, Luo Xia and his elder brother, Luo Feng, were chatting.
Having finally passed the Provisional Warrior assessment, they were in high spirits and looked forward to their future as warriors.
Luo Feng smiled and said, "Yeah, it's a pity I was a few points short, otherwise, I'd be classmates with Bai Yang."
Luo Xia added, "Bai Yang said that in the Elite Class of their military academy, not many become warriors."
Luo Feng sighed, "There are so few people who can become warriors, yet warriors are the most crucial force in resisting Monsters. That's why warriors are so respected in our era."
The two of them talked as they quickly returned home.
Now that their father, Luo Hongguo, and mother, Gong Xinlan, didn't need to go out to work, they were both at home waiting for Luo Xia and Luo Feng to return. As for Luo Hua, he was also at home since it was summer vacation.
"Dad, Mom, Second Brother, we're back!"
Luo Feng announced with a big smile as he pushed open the door.
Luo Hongguo and the others turned their heads at the sound. Luo Hua couldn't help but stand up and ask directly, "Big Brother, Third Brother, how was your Provisional Warrior assessment?"
Luo Xia and Luo Feng exchanged a glance, then smiled slightly at their family.
Luo Feng said, "Dad, Mom, Second Brother, both my Provisional Warrior assessment and Third Brother's passed!"
"Really?" His mother, Gong Xinlan, teared up with excitement, still finding it hard to believe.
Luo Xia stepped forward, putting his arm around his mother's shoulder, and smiled affectionately, "Really. In a few days, Big Brother's and my Provisional Warrior certificates will be delivered to the house!"
"Great! That's wonderful!"
Father Luo Hongguo's smile was so wide that his mouth was practically splitting. He waved his hand and instructed his wife, Gong Xinlan, "Xinlan, go buy some groceries quickly. We'll have a proper celebration tonight as a family!"
"I know, I know!"
Mother Gong Xinlan nodded repeatedly. Since Luo Xia and Luo Hua were now doing well, the family wasn't short on money. They could buy whatever they wanted to eat. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and looked at her eldest and third sons, asking:
"Right, Xiaofeng, Xia, have you eaten? If not, I'll make you some noodles first. When I get back from buying groceries, I'll cook something else for you!"
Luo Xia smiled and shook his head, saying, "We, the ones who passed the assessment, had a meal together before coming home, so we're not hungry yet."
"Okay, then I'll go buy groceries!"
Mother Gong Xinlan said, heading towards the kitchen and then coming out with a basket specifically for holding groceries.
Father Luo Hongguo said, "Xinlan, I'll go with you!"
He took the basket from Gong Xinlan's hands, and the two elders walked out of the house with smiles.
Luo Xia looked at his second brother, Luo Hua, and said, "Second Brother, later, Big Brother and I will be cultivating in our rooms. We'll come down for dinner."
"Alright, go ahead!"
Luo Hua nodded.
Luo Xia and Luo Feng each returned to their own rooms.
Having just obtained the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method, both of them wanted to try cultivating.
Although the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method was the most basic cultivation method, it wasn't easy to get started. Some people might be able to successfully sense the energy of the universe and begin cultivating on the first day, while others might need ten days, half a month, or even several months to sense the energy of the universe.
It varies from person to person.
Of course, those with better talent can get started more quickly.
"The Body Tempering Technique is, after all, not a cultivation method, but a way to exercise the body. The limit should be Advanced Warrior..."
In the room, Luo Xia murmured to himself.
"Now that my body has built an extremely solid foundation through the Body Tempering Technique, it's time to cultivate the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method."
"I wonder if my strength can break through to the Commander Level in one fell swoop after cultivating Genetic Energy..."
It's not easy to break through to the Commander Level.
Because the fist force requirement for a Beginner Commander is 8000kg!
Luo Xia's previous punch strength was just over 4000kg.
Luo Xia sat cross-legged on the carpet, with his Baihui Acupoint, palms, and soles of his feet all facing towards the sky, and began to cultivate.
He wanted to cultivate Genetic Energy.
The most important step was to [sense] the energy in the universe.
This kind of energy permeated the entire globe, and even existed in the starry sky of the universe.
But most people couldn't even detect the existence of this energy.
Almost the moment Luo Xia calmed his mind, he sensed the cosmic energy that permeated his surroundings.
He naturally absorbed this energy into his body. Wisps of energy flowed through his soles, palms, and Baihui Acupoint, surging into his body with the momentum of the Yellow River flowing into the sea.
Boom, boom, boom…
The entire room vibrated in an instant.
It was visible that Luo Xia's five hearts were all glowing, a strange phenomenon caused by the overflow of gathered energy.
If instructors like Wu Tong saw this, they would probably be shocked, their eyes widening in disbelief.
They had lived for decades, and they probably had never seen anyone absorb so much cosmic energy the first time they practiced the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method!
It was simply terrifying!
"Ah…"
A shudder that originated deep within his bone marrow caused Luo Xia's body to tremble involuntarily.
After this invisible and colorless cosmic energy entered Luo Xia's body, it was devoured ravenously by every cell of his long-starved body.
Time ticked by, minute by minute…
Luo Xia's body was constantly changing. From the surface of his skin to the muscles, bones, and even the deepest cells, his genes were undergoing subtle alterations.
This change was an evolution of life, an optimization of his genetic code!
At the same time, within Luo Xia's mind, his Mental Power, which had been superficially awakened during his childhood, was slowly unlocking as cosmic energy entered.
His body as a child couldn't have withstood such a vast amount of Mental Power.
Thus, under the instinctive protection of his body's systems, Luo Xia's Mental Power awakening was only the most basic level. Currently, all he could manage was telekinesis. Although he'd trained to control ten objects simultaneously, it still wasn't a complete awakening.
According to Luo Xia's estimate, to fully awaken his Mental Power, his physical condition likely needed to reach the level of an Elementary Commander, or even an Intermediate Commander, before it would be possible!
Dong, dong, dong…
He didn't know how much time had passed.
Luo Xia, who had been immersed in his cultivation, suddenly heard a knock on the door. He withdrew from his meditative state and realized that his cells were almost reaching a state of saturation.
He got up and opened the door.
Standing at the door was his older brother, Luo Feng. Seeing Luo Xia open the door, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xia, did you sense the cosmic energy? It's already past eight in the evening."
Luo Xia was taken aback. Was it already past eight?
He remembered that they had returned home around three in the afternoon. Now it was eight in the evening. Didn't that mean he had cultivated for over five hours in his first attempt?
This was even longer than the time his older brother, Luo Feng, took during his first cultivation in the original novel!
