The next day, in Bright Moon Estate, Xu Feng found Luo Feng, who also lived in the estate.
"It's been a while since you went to the training camp; this is the first time we've gotten together," Luo Feng said, feeling the unpredictability of life.
"What's the Elite Training Camp really like?" he asked, a mixture of longing and curiosity in his voice.
Xu Feng didn't answer directly, instead giving a mysterious smile. "You'll find out when you go."
Luo Feng didn't press the matter, chuckling heartily. "Then I really have to go and take a look someday."
They drank ice-cold beer and ate barbecue, casually reminiscing about the past. Xu Feng, having experienced several life-or-death crises and now a War God, found it a rare and enjoyable experience to eat and chat freely with an old friend.
Looking at the familiar yet slightly unfamiliar young man across from him, Xu Feng felt a strange sensation.
He suddenly remembered a saying: you think you're the protagonist, but in the eyes of others, you're just a supporting character.
Everyone is the protagonist of their own life, and each has their own unique story.
"Speaking of which, this Ninefold Thunderblade is really difficult to train. I still can't instantly unleash a strand of Hidden Force," Luo Feng shook his head helplessly.
"I only bought the first three levels. It's hard to imagine how to unleash the second, third, or even the ninth level of Hidden Force!
"Xu Feng, how's your Ninefold Thunderblade training going?"
"Me?" Xu Feng casually picked up the A7 Bloodshadow Battleblade next to him, intending to give Luo Feng some pointers. "You'll know when you see it!"
Seeing the advanced equipment Xu Feng had bought, Luo Feng was filled with envy. However, he believed he would catch up to and surpass Xu Feng, becoming a War God-level powerhouse!
But when he saw Xu Feng's swordsmanship, Luo Feng was completely stunned.
In Luo Feng's incredulous gaze, the air was cleaved by Xu Feng's casual slash, emitting five consecutive sonic booms, so rapid they sounded like a single "crack."
Through this characteristic, Luo Feng instantly realized that Xu Feng had mastered the fourth level of the Ninefold Thunderblade.
He was completely stunned at this moment, speechless, his expression exceedingly complex.
Recalling the scene that had just unfolded, Luo Feng revealed a look of disbelief.
Immediately afterward, Luo Feng sat cross-legged, closing his eyes in contemplation.
The scene of Xu Feng's blade strokes flashed through his mind, the trajectory of the blade constantly appearing in Luo Feng's thoughts.
Many previously unclear and perplexing aspects of the Ninefold Thunderblade's eighteen moves were now, one by one, being deciphered by Luo Feng!
Clearly, after witnessing Xu Feng's fourth level of the Ninefold Thunderblade's profoundness, he had entered a state of enlightenment, beginning to comprehend the first level.
Combined with Luo Feng's exceptionally high comprehension and the benefit of this enlightenment, along with his previous training...
With mutual verification, one layer of doubt after another was constantly overcome by Luo Feng… Numerous insights emerged, causing a smile to involuntarily appear on Luo Feng's face.
"Is this the protagonist, Luo Feng?" Xu Feng's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but gasp, "Truly terrifying indeed!"
To be honest, Xu Feng had spent half a month just to comprehend the first layer.
But what about Luo Feng?
He seemed ready to break through after just watching Xu Feng's Ninefold Thunderblade first layer once.
"So it's like this, so it's like this!" Luo Feng, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
After standing up, Luo Feng threw a punch, and simultaneously, two layers of Hidden Force erupted.
The first layer of Ninefold Thunderblade had been achieved just like that…
"Seriously?" Xu Feng looked speechless.
"Xu Feng, thank you. If it weren't for your demonstration, I wouldn't have known how long it would take me to comprehend the first level of the Ninefold Thunderblade," Luo Feng said gratefully.
"You achieved enlightenment; that's due to your own skill and comprehension. No need to thank me," Xu Feng said, looking as if he had no will to live.
"I thought my comprehension was already pretty good, but I didn't expect you to be even more terrifying than me. You grasped the first level of the Ninefold Thunderblade in just a few days," Xu Feng chuckled.
"Luo Feng, work hard and strive to enter the War God Reserve Camp. I believe you have the potential," Xu Feng's eyes narrowed. Looking at the determined Luo Feng, Xu Feng seemed to see himself in the past.
He and Luo Feng were essentially no different, except that he had simply walked a bit further down the path of a martial artist.
"Oh, right, I have something for you."
Xu Feng took out the Water of Life he had prepared and handed it to Luo Feng, saying it casually.
"This is for you, you should need it recently."
"What is it?"
Luo Feng took the small bottle in confusion. Inside was only a little bit of green liquid.
"Water of Life. It can regenerate severed limbs."
"No, no, no, this is too precious! I can't accept it!"
Hearing that it could regenerate severed limbs, Luo Feng immediately wanted to return it to Xu Feng.
Although he didn't know the value of the item, he knew it wouldn't be cheap based on its effect.
"Take it. Think about your younger brother."
"This, this…"
Luo Feng hesitated as he listened to his younger brother.
His younger brother had been confined to a wheelchair for years due to an accident.
If that was all, Luo Feng wouldn't hesitate. The key was that after the accident, his younger brother had been severely affected and often contemplated suicide.
Because of this, his mother and father were also very worried.
He had also complained to Xu Feng a few times before.
He never expected that during this meeting, Xu Feng would bring him something that could help Luo Hua stand up.
Now, the opportunity to change this was in his hands.
The words he'd used to refuse it moments ago were now impossible to utter.
But this was too precious. Luo Feng couldn't accept it without feeling uneasy, and he was deeply conflicted.
"Just take it. It's not worth much. If you feel bad, just pay me back later."
"Alright, no problem. How much is it?" Luo Feng remembered the 20 million Chinese Yuan in his account. It was the initial investment from Zhuge Tao when he'd become a warrior.
The Water of Life actually had the effect of regrowing a severed limb, so it shouldn't be cheap. For his younger brother, Luo Hua, he'd have to buy fewer supplies and go into the wilderness to train.
"Not much. Just 13 billion Chinese Yuan," Xu Feng said casually.
"13 billion Chinese Yuan!"
Hearing this number, Luo Feng clenched his hand, almost crushing the small bottle of Water of Life.
Scared, Luo Feng immediately examined the bottle in his hand, carefully confirming there were no cracks before his racing heart calmed down.
13 billion Chinese Yuan… he didn't know if he'd ever be able to earn that much money in his lifetime…
Xu Feng, seeing that Luo Feng hadn't accepted the bottle for a long time and looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, could only speak again to comfort Luo Feng.
Then, without waiting for Luo Feng to refuse, he turned and left.
Watching Xu Feng leave, Luo Feng sighed deeply and could only silently accept the gift.
