Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Primordial God and Demon Avatar
Chapter 6 An Invitation from the Thunder Martial Arts School
"Xu Qiankun, stop! Continuing this will only make us a laughingstock."
While wielding his battle sword to deflect the flying knives, Yun Cang spoke to Xu Qiankun, who was flying in the sky.
"You think you can just stop whenever you want? Who do you think you are?"
Xu Qiankun's expression was icy. Now that he had started, he had no intention of stopping easily.
It's just the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, right? I can just quit. Anyway, the contract I signed with the Extreme Martial Arts Academy was signed by the predecessor, so there's no penalty for breach of contract.
Two throwing knives attacked Yun Cang from two different directions. Although Yun Cang was experienced in combat, he was forced to fight in a flustered manner, and a hideous wound appeared on his face.
If Xu Qiankun hadn't actually wanted to kill him, he probably would have been a corpse long ago.
When a mentalist faces a martial artist, and the difference in strength is not significant, they do indeed have a clear advantage.
"Judging from his age, this kid should be under twenty. He's managed to fight Yun Cang to this extent. His future is limitless. Have someone check his information."
"Yun Cang, who has already been promoted to the God of War, was actually suppressed by a young man. Go and investigate what happened."
Outside the Linlang residential area, two senior warriors stood on the rooftops of two tall buildings, watching the battle between Xu Qiankun and Yun Cang from over a thousand meters away. They quickly took photos and videos with their smartwatches and sent their men to investigate Xu Qiankun's identity.
In less than two minutes, two similar documents were sent to the two men's watches.
Qin Ming, the manager of the Thunder Martial Arts School in Dongyang City, reviewed the information.
Xu Qiankun was born on February 18, 2034, in Dongyang City. His father, Xu Wen, and mother, Mu Wanyi, passed away six years ago, leaving behind his young sister. He later lived with his uncle Xu Wu's family and attended Dongyang No. 2 High School. His college entrance examination scores were...
He obtained his quasi-martial artist certificate on February 11, 2053. His strength increased by 2356kg during his first gene energy training. Later, he signed a contract with the Extreme Martial Arts Academy and received 20 million Chinese yuan and 50 million yuan in secret techniques funding. He cultivated the secret technique "Dripping Water" and his movement technique reached the microscopic level.
He later joined the Kamikaze Squad and worked together to hunt down the mid-level Beast General Two-Headed Bloodthirsty Beast. He completed his Advanced Warrior certification on July 22, 2053, and was sent to the hospital on the night of August 10.
"Was there any mention of him being a spiritualist?"
Qin Ming frowned slightly after reading the information.
There is no information about Xu Qiankun being a mentalist, which means that he probably hadn't shown his mentalist skills in public before today.
"It was hidden quite well."
"Go and find out why he fought with Yun Cang."
Qin Ming sent out another message.
This time it was much slower; it took almost ten minutes for the news to come.
"Is that so?"
Qin Ming's eyes lit up immediately after he opened the message and took a look.
"In that case, wouldn't my Thunder Martial Arts School also have a chance to take this person under my wing? Anyway, the law stipulates that the penalty for breach of contract for martial artists cannot exceed 300 million. As long as he is willing, it is entirely worthwhile to pay the maximum penalty."
On the other side, Colonel Lei Peng from the military saw the message from his subordinates and his face turned ugly. "Hmph, the Limit Martial Arts Academy is really something. The children of the fallen martial artists have their assets seized by outsiders and are being abused. They can't even get enough to eat, and they just turn a blind eye to it."
Why were martial artists granted special privileges in this era? Because martial artists were needed to hunt and eliminate monsters in the wild, and more and stronger martial artists were needed to emerge from battles to protect humanity's small living space.
Where there is battle, there will be sacrifice. That's why martial artists are given special privileges and various protection mechanisms are established for their families. This is the bottom line and fundamental interest of all martial artists.
But...
The orphaned children of martial artists living in the martial arts community of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy were robbed of their property and abused, but the Extreme Martial Arts Academy did not stand up for them.
This kind of thing was simply unbelievable to Lei Peng, a soldier. In the military family martial arts community, the children of martyrs' families were not necessarily superior, but if they were bullied, the entire community of martial arts practitioners would be in an uproar.
Drip
Just then, another message came in. Lei Peng quickly opened it. It was about Xu Qiankun being hit head-on by a beast general in a battle in the wild. He was seriously injured and on the verge of death. He was sent to the hospital and what happened next.
The more he looked at Lei Peng, the uglier his expression became.
"His uncle and aunt actually wanted to give up treatment and even demand the medical expenses paid by his teammates. How greedy!"
"Hmm? A spirit of plants and trees, what is this?"
Lei Peng frowned slightly, thought for a moment, made a phone call, and then hung up the phone in shock.
"This kid's luck is truly enviable; he actually managed to come across such a good thing."
"It makes sense that he has the strength to fight against a low-level war god."
"Most importantly, he is only nineteen years old, and he has a lot of room for improvement in the future. His future is limitless."
"It's a pity that such a genius wasn't born in a military dependents' community."
Lei Peng secretly regretted it.
The military has more rules and regulations, making it less free than organizations like the Limitless Martial Arts School, Thunder Martial Arts School, and HR Alliance. Therefore, most martial artists outside the military are not willing to join.
Otherwise, he really would have liked to invite Xu Qiankun.
With careful nurturing, they may have the opportunity to become pillars of the nation like Jia Yi and Zhu Xi in the future.
"My mental energy is running out."
In the sky, Xu Qiankun's face was slightly pale due to excessive mental exertion.
After manipulating the throwing knife to cut a gash on Yun Cang's cheek once more, he finally withdrew the knife and landed on the ground, no longer making a move.
Yun Cang also stopped in place, holding his battle sword, and looked at Xu Qiankun with a complicated expression.
He could only be thankful that he had just completed his War God certification; otherwise, being beaten by a nineteen-year-old boy while holding the status of a War God would definitely become a legendary tale.
The good story belongs to Xu Qiankun, while he was just a pitiful stepping stone.
It's just that the more you don't want something, the more likely it is to happen.
Before he could finish celebrating, a hearty laugh came from afar, and then a tall man appeared not far from the two of them. "Haha, Yun Cang, I didn't expect that even though you've advanced to the God of War, you still got beaten so badly."
"What? Manager Yun Cang has been promoted to War God? That means..."
Sure enough, as soon as Qin Ming finished speaking, the martial artists who had been drawn to watch the spectacle all stared at Xu Qiankun in shock.
Xu Minghui's family, in particular, felt utterly hopeless, as offending a warrior-level martial artist and offending a war god were completely different things.
Warriors would have to consider various legal and regulatory issues to deal with them, but the God of War wouldn't even need to lift a finger to deal with them.
"Qin Ming, this is my Extreme Martial Arts Academy's territory. What are you doing here?"
"And you, Lei Peng, when did your military start breaking the rules too?"
Yun Cang looked at the two people who appeared one after the other with a grim expression.
Qin Ming completely ignored him and instead looked at Xu Qiankun, a fawning smile suddenly appearing on his face. "Um, War God Xu, I see you're not happy at this Extreme Martial Arts Academy. Have you considered switching affiliations and coming to my Thunder Martial Arts Academy?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely introduce you to the main branch. With your abilities, you should be able to become a high-ranking member of the martial arts school very soon."
"Qin Ming, you've gone too far."
Seeing Qin Ming dare to poach people right in front of him, Yun Cang wished he could grab his sword and go up and chop him down.
If Xu Qiankun, a nineteen-year-old advanced warrior-level martial artist and advanced mentalist, were poached right in front of him, he would be in big trouble.
What worries him even more is that Xu Qiankun has indeed been oppressed over the years. Although Yun Cang doesn't think it's a problem with the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, it doesn't stop others from having the idea of switching schools.
To Yun Cang's surprise, Xu Qiankun actually declined Qin Ming's invitation, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Manager Qin, but I have no intention of going to the Thunder Martial Arts School for the time being."
"No, they've treated you like this, what are you still doing at the Extreme Martial Arts Academy?"
Qin Ming immediately became anxious. If he could find such a genius for the martial arts school, his performance record this year would definitely be excellent.
"I don't intend to stay at the Extreme Martial Arts Academy any longer," Xu Qiankun said with a smile, then looked at Lei Peng and said, "Commander Lei, I'm planning to join your military. I wonder if you'd accept me?"
"What?"
Lei Peng's mind went blank for a moment.
