Swallowing the Stars Starts with the Brewing Master

Chapter 20 The Real Purpose of the Assessment
At the end of August this year, it was revealed that a large number of plant spirits were discovered in Australia's Misty Island.

Ordinary people may not know much about this matter, but as the director of the Thunder Martial Arts School in Northeast Base City, Zhou Haichao naturally knows the ins and outs of the Australian Kirishima incident very clearly.

Although he, a high-ranking general, was already on par with an ordinary god of war in terms of status, he could only envy Luo Feng's role and gains.

But not everyone can survive safely under the hunting of a god of war and discover so many plant spirits!

Moreover, due to the relationship between the Thunder and Extreme Martial Arts School, he even vaguely knew that Master Hong of the Extreme Martial Arts School had captured a vine plant in Kirishima.

In September, an elite team of warriors from the Thunder Martial Arts School in Northeast Base City encountered an accident in the wilderness area.

In the report submitted by the last surviving machine gunner of the squad, the machine gunner clearly wrote:

While chasing a frost deer, their team strayed into an upscale residential area shrouded in mist. Deep within the mist, a vine-like plant seemed to possess intelligence.

However, Zhou Haichao had visited the Thunderbolt Martial Arts School headquarters in New Delhi, India, two months ago. It wasn't until he returned a few days ago that he stumbled upon this report.

He immediately fell into ecstasy.

Mist, vines, and intelligence...

Combined with the recent Australian Kirishima incident, how could Zhou Haichao not feel hot-headed?

Therefore, after seeing the report, he immediately contacted a familiar god of war and sold the news about the suspected plant spirit.

Even if he did this, if there was only one plant spirit, it would most likely not be his turn to possess it.

But with his current strength as a high-level general, even if he was sure that this was a plant spirit...

He didn't dare to face the spirit of plants and trees that had the strength of a god of war alone.

By doing so, he could get the guarantee from the war god-level strongman.

Regardless of whether there are plant spirits or not, he can make a huge profit from this.

Moreover, you pay in advance before heading to the destination to ensure the profits you can get!
Perhaps, he can use this to break through to the God of War level!

By then, it would be Zhou Haichao's turn to take the position of president of the Thunder Martial Arts School in Northeast Base City.

In a good mood, Zhou Haichao immediately saw the relevant information about Chu He and Zhao Changkong's evaluation...

Whether it was due to his love for the house and his family or the influence of his good mood, Zhou Haichao came to a completely different, even diametrically opposed conclusion from Zhao Changkong:
This kid is a genius!

After checking Chu He's recent news, I learned that Chu He had been training alone in the wilderness for more than a month and had gained a lot.

With the idea of ​​breaking through to the God of War level and becoming the president, Zhou Haichao felt that he needed to cultivate more confidants.

It was perfect that Chu He appeared in his sight at this time.

Therefore, Zhou Haichao offered an extremely generous condition.

Of course, it is impossible to give the spirit of plants and trees to Chu He, and even he himself cannot keep the spirit of plants and trees.

However, in Zhou Haichao's opinion, being able to obtain the training resources of the War God Training Camp of the Thunder and Lightning Martial Arts School is already a very generous condition.

At this moment, Zhou Haichao, who had put forward his own conditions, was waiting for Chu He's answer with full confidence.

"President Zhou, is the ownership of this plant spirit... included in the assessment rewards?" Chu He's eyes sparkled.

If there is a plant spirit, and the corresponding materials to brew it into spirit wine can be gathered, then Chu He is confident that he can reach the planetary level within a year, let alone the god of war.

"Hahahaha!" Zhou Haichao burst into laughter when he heard this question.

"I blame you for not explaining it clearly," Zhou Haichao said with a smile. "Did you know that within that fog, there's a vine plant suspected to have combat power at least at the level of a War God?" "Even a team of elite warriors from my Thunderbolt Martial Arts School got trapped in it after chasing a Frost Shadow Deer, and they never emerged."

"With your current combat power, wanting to obtain the spirit of plants under the protection of this vine..." Zhou Haichao smiled and shook his head.

"So, the exact scope of your assessment this time is what I mentioned before: confirming whether there are any plant or tree spirits among them? And, if so, what kind of plant or tree spirits are they?"

Hearing this, Chu He suddenly understood.

It turns out that the mark they found on the Frost Shadow Deer was left by the team that was trapped in it!

But after hearing what he said, Chu He was full of doubts again and asked, "Manager Zhou, didn't you just say that there was a vine-like plant in there that was also intelligent? Isn't this the spirit of plants and trees?"

Today on Earth, the definition of the spirit of plants and trees is [spiritual intelligence].

The way to determine whether a plant has intelligence is naturally its simple attack or self-protection consciousness.

The stronger this attack consciousness is, the more intelligent the plant spirit is and the more valuable it is.

"No, you didn't hear clearly. I said 'suspected'. The reason the machine gunner from that squad survived was because he didn't even enter the fog. He only vaguely saw the vines attacking."

"He doesn't know for sure whether it is or not. Perhaps, it could just be a giant python."

Although he said so, Zhou Haichao knew in his heart that unless the fog had the effect of confusing the mind, otherwise, it was most likely the spirit of a plant.

The reason why he set up such an assessment was naturally because he wanted to see Chu He's combat process with his own eyes.

Neither Zhao Changkong's previous evaluation nor the news that Chu He had reaped great rewards alone in the wilderness area was true proof of his combat power.

Therefore, this time he will go with Chu He to witness with his own eyes whether Chu He has strong fighting power.

If he has fighting ability, he is naturally a genius and is worthy of being trained by him as a confidant.

But if not, then he wouldn't be a guarantor for a mediocre person for nothing.

This is Zhou Haichao’s real purpose!

The prerequisite for everything is to sell this suspected plant spirit at a good enough price.

Assessing Chu He, cultivating confidants, etc., were all sudden ideas based on this.

Chu He recalled what he had seen and heard in County Town 0316 with the Jackal Squad.

At that time, they had indeed not entered the fog to investigate. The so-called long vines were only vaguely visible outside the fog.

"Okay, then, when does Director Zhou plan to start this assessment?"

"It's up to you to decide." Manager Zhou looked at Chu He with a smile. "As for your assessment, we'll naturally wait until you're ready and in good shape before we begin."

"Why, are you planning to go now? I have no objection, let's just leave now."

Zhou Haichao was just saying this. He didn't even lift his butt, still sitting firmly on the sofa.

Not to mention that Chu He has been in the wilderness for more than a month, and his physical and mental conditions are not at their peak.

Even if Chu He didn't need to prepare, he himself needed to prepare.

Without that War God-level expert, he, a high-level general, plus Chu He, a high-level warrior...

How dare you enter that foggy area!
