Chapter 45: Assessment with the Special Recruitment of the Extreme Martial Arts School
“After all this twists and turns, do I still have to join the elite training camp?” Lin Zhan thought to himself, “Well, I sold the spot because I needed money to buy the Water of Life for Brother Hu. Now, I can go in and play around and pick up some goods.”

Lin Zhan is very confident in his own strength. I heard that as long as he can pass the 5th floor of the Trial Tower, he will be accepted as a disciple by the Thunder God. I don’t know what their expressions will be when I pass the 6th or even the 7th floor.

That day, Lin Zhan was training in the wilderness as usual. He felt that he would soon master the sixth form of the Falling Blade Sword Technique. It was so fast. On the one hand, he had the foundation of the 19th-level basic sword technique, plus the sword intent he had comprehended, and the accumulation of insights from many life-and-death battles with monsters in the wilderness, which made his understanding of the Falling Blade Sword Technique advance by leaps and bounds.

After returning to the city, Lin Lujie washed up and was invited by Zhu Cong to a quiet room.

At this time, an old man with a tall and strong figure, obvious muscle lines, and a solid feeling, was sitting on a chair, flipping through the files one by one. When he saw something he was satisfied with, he smiled and nodded, raised the green tea in his hand, and took a sip from time to time.

"This is a powerful warrior, a very powerful warrior!" The old man just sat there quietly, but Lin Zhan felt like he was looking up to a mountain. His restrained aura was as profound as a mountain and as deep as an abyss. Once it erupted, Lin Zhan believed it would be like a storm.

"Grandpa, this is Lin Zhan, my savior. You promised me to invite him to join the 'Elite Training Camp'!" Zhu Cong twisted his chubby body, came closer, and said in a flattering manner.

At the same time, he turned around and introduced Lin Zhan, "Brother Lin, this is my grandfather Zhu Yuan, the inspector of the Thunder and Lightning Martial Arts School."

There was no need for Zhu Cong to introduce him. From the first time Lin Zhan saw the old man, he had a vague guess in his heart that this was a powerful person beyond the level of a god of war.

There is no reason, just based on feeling, this is the feeling between strong people. If you insist on saying the reason, it is that Lin Zhan vaguely felt the crisis of death from him. Yes, that's right, Lin Zhan now comprehends the sword meaning and is very sensitive to the aura of the strong.

You know, if he uses the Falling Flowers Sword Technique normally now, he has reached the combat power of a medium-level God of War. If he uses the sword intent and activates the Sword One Dragon Snake, he can enter the threshold of a high-level God of War. With this strength, the old man actually made him feel a life-and-death crisis, which is enough to show how terrifying the old man is.

"Hello, Inspector Zhu, I am Lin."

"Your name is Lin Zhan, I know you!" The old man turned and looked at Lin Zhan and said, his face showing no emotion, only calmness.

"Do you know me?" Lin Zhan was a little confused. If the old man knew him, then there was nothing to be confused about. Zhu Cong must have introduced him or had read his file information. But knowing him made him a little confused.

Even Zhu Cong, who was standing by, turned his head suspiciously and looked Lin Zhan up and down with a scrutinizing look. His expression seemed to be saying, "You still say you are not my grandfather's illegitimate son?"

Lin Zhan didn't bother to pay attention to Zhu Cong, the funny guy, and bowed to the old man solemnly, "Inspector Zhu knows me, but I have never met Inspector Zhu before."

The old man still stared at Lin Zhan, his tone calm, with a hint of self-mockery, "Yes, I know you, but how can you, the great genius Lin Zhan, know an old man like me?"

Lin Zhan: “.”

This didn't make sense. He was very sure that he didn't know this Inspector Zhu, but why was he speaking to him in the tone of an acquaintance or even a friend?

If you don't know, it's best to say less and make fewer mistakes, and remain silent.

Seeing Lin Zhan's silence and his expression of 'a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water', Zhu Yuan became even more angry, "The great genius Lin is indeed forgetful. A dozen days ago, did you get a place in the 'elite training camp'? But I heard that the useless Huang Huang actually allowed you to sell this place in exchange for the Water of Life?!" After a pause, his tone suddenly became higher, "In your eyes, a place in the elite training camp is not worth the value of a bottle of Water of Life? Moreover, you didn't use it for yourself, but on a fellow general. You, you really are..."

Seeing the old man getting more and more excited, Lin Zhan quickly explained, "Inspector Zhu, I didn't mean to sell the elite training camp quota. It was mainly because the Wang family gave too much, 500 billion Chinese yuan, and I couldn't resist the temptation, so I sold it! Yes, that's it!"

Lin Zhan now knew the identity of Zhu Yuan, the inspector. This person was obviously the teacher of Huang Huang, the director of the Jingdu Base City Thunder Martial Arts School, and the one who contacted the teacher to get him a place in the elite training camp. No wonder the other party was angry. If he met this kind of "ungrateful" little guy, he would also be angry, even angrier than him.

In order to reduce the other party's anger, he could only pour the "dirty water" on the head of the Kyoto royal family in the hope of sharing some of the burden.

Zhu Cong's eyes widened when he heard this. "A spot in an elite training camp was sold for 500 billion? Then Grandpa, you have a special invitation spot every year, so don't you make 500 billion every year?"

"Shut up! Can that spot be bought and sold casually?!" The old man first scolded his grandson to shut up, then turned to look at Lin Zhan, "Lin Zhan, don't interrupt. The Wang family actually dared to do this in private. They simply didn't take me seriously. I will find them to solve their problems later. Now I'm talking to you. I ask you solemnly, there is still a special invitation spot for the training camp. Will you sell it to others?"

Judging from the situation, if Lin Zhan dared to nod, the other party would dare to walk away directly. What was there to hesitate about? Lin Zhan nodded vigorously and said firmly, "Of course not, I will definitely not sell it again. Everyone says that the elite training camp is so powerful and there are so many geniuses in it. I just want to join it and see it for myself."

"Well, then, you should get ready. I just heard that the Extreme Martial Arts School has also invited a genius to take the test. You two can do it at the same time." Zhu Yuan said this and looked at Lin Zhan meaningfully. "I don't need to say anything else, right?"

Lin Zhan nodded, "Don't worry, no matter who the Extreme Martial Arts School recruits, I can crush him."

Seeing Zhu Yuan's expression eased a lot, Lin Zhan smiled even more, "Inspector Zhu Yuan, I wonder if there are any extra rewards for my outstanding performance?"

"You want extra rewards? This is a necessary process for you to join the elite training camp, and you still want rewards?" Zhu Yuan turned to look at Lin Zhan as if he heard incredible words.

"Mr. Inspector, what you said is not quite right. I am not an ordinary genius. If I were an ordinary genius, I would be proud to join the elite training camp. But with my talent, the elite training camp will be proud of me in the future!" Lin Zhan said confidently.

"You" Zhu Yuan was really shocked by Lin Zhan's shamelessness and arrogance.

Listen, what are you talking about? Let the elite training camp be proud of him, but that is the elite training camp, the place where talented war gods gather. Even if you become an invincible war god, or even a strong man beyond the war god level, you will never feel that the elite training camp should be proud of him.

"Okay, if you can pass the third level of the Trial Tower this time, I will reward you. The more levels you pass, the richer the reward." Zhu Yuan set an impossible task.

Are you kidding? There are so many beings who surpass the God of War and have to accumulate for decades to reach the third level. Lin Zhan, a little guy who is just an ordinary God of War, can hardly reach the second level, let alone the third level.

"Good!" Lin Zhan was overjoyed.
