Chapter 23 The Inspector's Request
"Huh, you know me?" Wei Wen asked curiously, his question revealing his identity.
Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Wei Wen was a very famous person, Luo Feng's best friend, and a being who had climbed to immortality while lying down.
Having read the original work thoroughly, he understood Wei Wen's personality quite well and knew that Wei Wen wouldn't mind his offense.
He smiled and said, "I just happened to hear that Lord Luo Feng has a friend named Wei Wen, and the Inspector's surname is Wei. He also mentioned in his conversation that his friend's name is A Feng, so I made a guess."
"I see..." Wei Wen scratched his head, not caring where Chen Yuan had heard it from, and smiled. "Perfect timing. I heard about you from Chairman Zhou yesterday. I learned that another genius has emerged in Jiangnan City, so I thought I'd come and see for myself."
"Take the test carefully later. If your strength meets the requirements, I will personally apply to headquarters for a training camp spot for you." Wei Wen looked intently at Chen Yuan and made a promise to his face.
Chen Yuan sensed that Wei Wen had ulterior motives and could vaguely sense that it was related to his performance. But no matter what, it concerned a spot in the training camp, so Chen Yuan couldn't afford to be negligent.
More importantly, Chen Yuan chose to believe the description in the original work and gambled that Wei Wen would not harm him. After all, someone who could become Luo Feng's friend couldn't be that bad.
So everyone entered the hall and went to the testing area.
Because of Wei Wen's presence, Chen Yuan decided to reveal more of his strength, raising his power level to 3 and applying it to the speed test.
Therefore, Chen Yuan prepared to test the speed and strength twice.
Strength test, first time:
17910KG!
Chen Yuan didn't stop, and used his power-generating technique to throw another punch.
53730KG!
The punch elicited gasps from everyone, with Wang Tai exclaiming in disbelief, "Three times! You were holding back your strength yesterday!"
Upon seeing this result, Wei Wen nodded slightly.
The speed test results then came out: 163 meters per second.
Chen Yuan then gestured for another test, a move that sparked speculation among the crowd.
"Could it be that this little guy has already mastered the application of speed?" Chairman Zhou Zhengyong chuckled softly. "He's got good comprehension."
Chen Yuan's second test confirmed their suspicions.
With three times the force, Chen Yuan emitted a sonic boom at the start, and the testing system showed a speed of 366 meters per second, exceeding the speed of sound!
"366 meters per second, that means this little guy has perfectly applied three times the force to his movement." Zhuge Tao calculated and then exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone knows that although in theory the techniques of generating force can be perfectly applied to body movements, it is difficult to do and requires a lot of practice and exploration.
Even some war gods couldn't achieve perfect speed and power, but Chen Yuan, a mid-level general, did.
"Not bad, not bad." Wei Wen's eyes also showed appreciation, but then he seemed to remember something and frowned slightly.
Soon, Chen Yuan underwent the final neurological reaction test, and the results came out quickly: the intermediate-level warriors scored full marks, and the advanced-level warriors scored excellent.
After the test, everyone at the Extreme Martial Arts Academy was all smiles. It was clear that Chen Yuan's strength was enough to enter the elite training camp, which was a contribution from the Jiangnan branch.
Only Chen Yuan keenly noticed that although Wei Wen was smiling, he seemed dissatisfied.
So Chen Yuan waved his hand: "Inspector, there is still one ability of mine that I haven't tested. Let's test the speed again."
"Oh?" Wei Wen asked, intrigued. "What other abilities haven't been tested?"
"You'll see when you take a look," Chen Yuan said with a smile.
So everyone quieted down and waited for Chen Yuan's third test.
Chen Yuan arrived on the track, suddenly exerted force with his feet, and his body shot out like a swift gust of wind.
This time, Chen Yuan used the Wind Art, and his speed increased by 50% again. The test results came out quickly.
550 meters per second!
Upon seeing this result, everyone fell silent.
"The meaning, the artistic conception?" Someone noticed it and said in surprise, "And the level of understanding is so deep, it's definitely not just a superficial understanding."
Many people only grasp the essence of the art at a superficial level, applying it to movement techniques or attack skills, but they can only use it in one area.
For example, when someone is practicing swordsmanship, they may perceive a trace of the essence of lightning, and from then on, the power of their swordsmanship will greatly increase, reaching the "essence level". However, in terms of movement techniques, this person may still only be at the subtle or perfect level.
Chen Yuan, however, was different. He had a deep understanding of the essence of wind, to the point that both his swordsmanship and movement techniques had reached the essence level.
This means that Chen Yuan's movement techniques, enhanced by the conception, are stronger than those of ordinary conception-level practitioners.
"Clap clap clap".
Wei Wen clapped his hands, a broad smile on his face, clearly very satisfied with Chen Yuan's performance: "To possess such profound artistic conception, you are indeed a genius."
"In that case, I will personally report to the 'Global Headquarters' so that they know that another genius has emerged from our Jiangnan Base City," Wei Wen said to Chen Yuan with a smile. "I believe we will receive a reply soon. With your performance, you are more than qualified to enter the elite training camp."
In response to Wei Wen's praise, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for the recommendation, Inspector."
He was genuinely grateful. After all, if the Jiangnan branch had reported it, the headquarters would have compared him with other geniuses recommended from other places. Although Chen Yuan was confident that he could stand out, there might have been some setbacks, such as his spot being taken or the headquarters suddenly requiring him to pass an additional trial.
The original Luo Feng was in this situation. He was talented enough to enter the elite training camp, but because there were no spots available, he had to pass the B-level trial to get in.
However, having a recommendation from an inspector makes all the difference. Moreover, Wei Wen is the inspector of the Jiangnan Base City, which is Luo Feng's hometown. Without a certain amount of connections and backing, one cannot be selected from here.
Of course, Chen Yuan knew that Wei Wen's backer was Luo Feng, so he felt even more at ease.
"That's all for today." Wei Wen said. "Chen Yuan, come with me to Yangzhou City to rest today. Stay at my house so I can notify you as soon as headquarters replies."
Chen Yuan was surprised that Wei Wen would suddenly invite him, which made him even more certain that the other party must have something to ask for, but he didn't know what it was.
After all, he is Wei Wen. With his status, would he have any difficulties that require the help of a mid-level general like myself?
But it shouldn't be anything dangerous, otherwise he wouldn't have said it in such a public place.
So after hesitating for a moment, Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Okay."
When Wei Wen saw that Chen Yuan had agreed, he breathed a sigh of relief and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
So Chen Yuan followed Wei Wen out of the martial arts school. With a wave of Wei Wen's hand, the intelligent fighter jet that had been hovering in the sky slowly landed in front of the two of them. Wei Wen took the lead and entered the fighter jet, and Chen Yuan followed closely behind.
The fighter jets slowly took off, and after reaching high altitude, they began to fly towards Yangzhou City.
Chen Yuan followed Wei Wen into the cabin, where there was a lounge with several sofas and tables.
"Sit down," Wei Wen said, gesturing for Chen Yuan to sit down.
The two then sat facing each other on the sofa. Chen Yuan looked at Wei Wen, thinking that he should now know why Wei Wen had come to him.
However, several minutes passed, and Wei Wen remained completely silent.
Chen Yuan waited for a long time, but Wei Wen still looked hesitant to speak, so he couldn't help but ask, "Is there something the Inspector wants to see me about?"
"Ah." Wei Wen was startled and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
It was written all over his face. Chen Yuan was speechless. Wei Wen had been the Inspector for so many years, holding a high position and great power, but he was still the same as before.
Perhaps this is also a kind of childlike innocence, Chen Yuan thought to himself, those who can become Luo Feng's friends are indeed not ordinary people.
Wei Wen quickly realized that this was a good opportunity to confront Chen Yuan, so he looked at Chen Yuan and said seriously, "It's like this, the main reason I'm looking for you this time is because I need your help with a personal matter."
Chen Yuan had anticipated this and nodded: "Please speak."
Wei Wen said, "With my recommendation, your entry into the training camp is a done deal."
"And coincidentally, I need someone I can trust to go into the training camp in my place..."
Wei Wen took a deep breath: "Help me take care of a child."
