Chapter 11: Assessment of Prospective Warriors (I)
July 1st.
Early in the morning, Luo Xia and his eldest brother Luo Feng left home, followed the No. 11 subway line to Zhong'an Road Station, and then transferred to the No. 1 line to the central area of Yangzhou City.
After exiting the subway station, the two brothers walked for another ten minutes before arriving at the headquarters of the Extreme Martial Arts Gym in Yangzhou City - the Extreme Club!
It was just after six in the morning when the two brothers came out from home, but now they arrived at their destination, but it was already eight in the morning.
"Is this the legendary Mingyue Community?"
Luo Feng looked at the gate of the quiet community in front of him and said with emotion.
The extreme club they want to enter is in this community called [Mingyue Community].
"The guards at the door are all soldiers with live ammunition."
Rorschach also muttered.
Luo Feng smiled and said to his third brother: "After all, the families of warriors live in this community, so security must be taken care of. Xiaoxia, let's go there."
Rorschach nodded and walked towards the door with his eldest brother.
"Sir, please stay back. Once you enter the yellow line area, we have the right to kill you directly!"
As soon as they approached the gate, a soldier warned Luo Feng and Luo Xia.
As the eldest brother, it was natural for Luo Feng to step forward at this time. He looked at the guarding soldiers on guard and said:
"Everyone, my brother and I are both senior students of the Extreme Martial Arts School. My name is Luo Feng, and this is my brother Luo Xia. I am here to take part in the quasi-martial arts examination."
"oh?"
In the guard lounge next to the community, an old man with gray hair walked out. He held a handheld computer in his hand, looked at the two brothers and said:
"You two young men came very early, before eight o'clock. You are taking the quasi-martial arts examination at a young age. You have a bright future!"
"Here, let me check your ID cards and senior student ID cards. If there are no problems, you two can go in."
Luo Xia and Luo Feng handed over their ID cards and senior student certificates.
Toot——
The ID card and senior student ID card were crossed out on the handheld computer respectively, and then the basic information of Luo Xia and Luo Feng appeared on the screen of the handheld computer.
"Um?"
Suddenly, the old man looked up at Luo Xia in surprise, "Are you only sixteen years old?"
As soon as this question came out, the surrounding soldiers looked at Rorschach with the same surprise.
Sixteen?
"You came to take the quasi-martial artist examination at the age of sixteen?"
the old man asked in disbelief.
Luo Xia blinked and asked: "Old man, is there an age limit for the assessment of prospective warriors?"
The old man shook his head subconsciously and replied: "There is no age limit for the quasi-martial artist assessment. As long as the physical fitness meets the requirements, everyone can participate, but..."
He looked Luo Xia up and down, and said with a smile: "The old man has been guarding here for half his life, and this is the first time that he has seen a child as young as you take part in the quasi-warrior assessment."
As he said that, the old man looked at Luo Feng and said, "Are you his brother? You are eighteen years old... You are still young enough. You two brothers are really surprising. I hope you can pass today's assessment smoothly."
He said, returning the ID card and senior student certificate to Luo Xia and Luo Feng.
"Thank you, old gentleman."
Luo Xia and Luo Feng saluted and thanked the old man.
The old man smiled and nodded, waved to the others and said, "Let them in."
The gate of the community slowly opened, and a soldier holding an assault rifle came forward and said to Luo Xia and Luo Feng:
"Two gentlemen, I will take you to the Extreme Club. Please don't run around after entering the community! You only have permission to enter the Extreme Club and are not allowed to enter the accommodation area of the warriors' families!"
With a serious face, he looked at Luo Xia and Luo Feng——
"If the rules are violated, even if I don't take action, other brothers patrolling the community will."
Luo Xia and Luo Feng looked at each other and nodded, indicating that they knew the rules.
Under the leadership of the soldier, the two walked into the community. What they saw were single-family villas that looked like small gardens. Various rockeries, pools, grasslands, and flowers made these villas extremely beautiful.
…
Mingyue Community Center is where the Extreme Club is located.
The soldiers who arrived with Luo Xia and Luo Feng had already left on their own.
Luo Xia looked at the behemoth in front of him and said to Luo Feng with emotion:
"This is the Extreme Martial Arts Hall. It's twice as big as the Extreme Martial Arts Hall where we train!"
Luo Feng nodded, feeling the same, and walked forward first, "Let's go in."
The two of them walked into the lobby of the guild hall, and a sweet-looking girl immediately stepped forward to serve with a smile, "Are you two gentlemen here to participate in the assessment of prospective warriors?"
"Well, yes."
Luo Feng nodded and answered the girl's question.
The girl bowed slightly, greeted her with her hand, and said to Luo Xia and Luo Feng: "In that case, please go to the small bar over there to rest first. The assessment for prospective warriors will not officially start until ten o'clock in the morning!"
Hearing this, Luo Xia nodded towards Luo Feng, said goodbye to the girl, and walked towards the bar next to her.
At this time, there were three people sitting in the bar, two of them were talking, and the other was sitting silently on the sofa.
The arrival of Luo Feng and Luo Xia attracted the attention of the three people. They looked over and nodded politely.
After Luo Xia sat down, he smiled at Luo Feng and said, "Brother, do you want to drink?"
Luo Feng patted Luo Xia, "Why drink? The test will start soon!"
Luo Xia leaned back on the sofa and said in a relaxed tone, "I see you are a little nervous. Maybe you won't be nervous if you drink some wine."
"I'm not nervous." Luo Feng answered simply, then closed his eyes and sat down, conserving his energy, and stopped talking to Luo Xia.
Luo Xia saw that his elder brother ignored him, so he looked at the other three people. Among these three people, except for the one in white clothes who looked young, the other two were probably over 30 years old.
The man in white clothes was talking to another man about the villa in Mingyue Community.
As time passed, three more people came to the bar.
Luo Xia and Luo Feng didn't know these three people. They were very old, and they all looked over 30 years old. One of them might even be 40 years old.
"Ha! Luo Feng! Xiao Xia!" Suddenly, a loud voice sounded.
Luo Xia and Luo Feng were startled. They turned around and saw Yang Wu, who had a scar on his face, coming over and asking them, "Are you here to take the quasi-warrior assessment as well?"
"Brother Yang."
Luo Xia and Luo Feng stood up to greet him.
Yang Wu patted Luo Feng and Luo Xia on the shoulders and said with a smile, "With the physical fitness you showed before, you will definitely pass today! Come on!"
Luo Xia smiled and said, "Brother Yang, you will definitely pass this time too!"
Yang Wu laughed and said, "Thank you for your good words. It's embarrassing to say that the last time I came to take the test, my speed was a little off, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me today."
"Be quiet."
At this time, a voice came from the center of the hall.
Luo Xia and the other eight people looked towards the center of the hall and saw a middle-aged man in loose training clothes standing there, saying to them:
"Let's go upstairs with me and take the quasi-warrior assessment immediately. Remember, after going upstairs, be well behaved. Today, an old friend of our chief instructor in Yangzhou City is here, so don't make trouble."
An old friend of the chief instructor?
Luo Xia and Luo Feng looked at each other, and then saw that the middle-aged man had already walked to the second floor, and they hurried to follow him.
Brothers, I was stung by a giant wasp today, and it hurts so much! I don’t know if it will be better tomorrow... Alas, a disaster has fallen from the sky!
