Chapter 24 - Chapter 24. Glory In truth

Wong had not harbored high expectations for acquiring mental force upon visiting Luo Fangs home. After all, he had previously attempted sign-ins in the residences of ordinary martial artists, only to be met with disappointing results. Thus, he had not anticipated any significant rewards from what appeared to be a mere run-down house. Yet, Luong had surprised him with an unexpected boon. It seemed that sign-ins were indeed possible, likely contingent upon certain underlying conditions. Perhaps the caliber of the occupants or some unique attribute of the location. Wong amused. Could it be that the residences of other superpower figures on Earth like the first ranked Hong and the second ranked thunder god also yield remarkable rewards? Wongi did not linger long at Luo Fangs home. After a brief exchange, he took his leave. Luo Fangs family, now aware of Wong Yis membership in the Extreme Martial Arts Academy and his status as a martial artist, requested that he look after their son, Lu Fo, to which Wong he readily agreed. He understood that in the eyes of Luo Fangs family, he had ascended to the esteemed rank of a martial artist, and they hoped he might assist their son. However, Wong recognized that given Luo Fang's innate talent, even without his intervention, Luongo would undoubtedly rise rapidly and soon become one of the strongest individuals on Earth. The Luo family would soon soar to greatness, transforming into one of the most legendary families on the planet with descendants scattered throughout the galaxy. Luo Fang's rise would serve as a testament to the adage that when one person succeeds, all associated with them thrive. Thinking of Luo Fong naturally led Wong it to su exine and subsequently to his own circumstances. He wondered if he and Chun Yin might one day establish a formidable family lineage. Shaking his head, he reminded himself, "Wake up. You don't even have a wife yet." On June 3rd, Wongi arrived at the Thunderbolt Pavilion in Yona City. Sign in. Ding. Congratulations, host on successful signin. Reward to proficiency in swordsmanship. Your swordsmanship has reached the level of specialization. This location's sign-in attempts remaining. Zero. H. My swordsmanship has improved. Wong was taken aback. He had visited the two major pavilions in Jo Jang City before, but the rewards have been lackluster, often feeling inferior to those from district martial artsmies. Yet, in just 3 days in Yona City, he had received three tremendous surprises. Swordsmanship, like body techniques, is divided into four levels: foundational, specialized, and advanced. The journey to improve one's swordsmanship is hardly easier than that of body techniques. Wong had spent countless hours searching for and practicing basic sword techniques online, barely reaching a solid foundation. Each subsequent step had proven exceedingly challenging. Yet now, through the sign-in panel, his swordsmanship had swiftly progressed from basic to specialized within a mere 2 months, a feat remarkable in its rapidity. He felt a wealth of knowledge and insights flooding his mind. Seamlessly integrating into his being, transforming into an instinctive ability. Now, with a mere swing of his sword, Wong Yi strikes bore significantly greater power than before. This is the effect brought about by the enhancement of swordsmanship. Wongi couldn't help but marvel internally. At this rate, he felt disincclined to strive any further. Currently, his physical strength ranged from 5,000 to 6,000 kg, while his mental prowess had reached the foundational threshold of the primary battle god level at 64,000 kg. His swordsmanship had attained a specialization level, and his agility had reached a meticulous level. And Wong, he was only 18 years old. He was quite frankly a prodigy. Although his strength had significantly increased, it seemed he had overlooked something, his ability to exert force. Wongi suddenly recalled then the world of the devouring starry sky there existed a concept of exerting force through certain specialized techniques one could amplify their physical power for instance a force of 10,000 kg could be increased to 20 or even 30,000 kg through these techniques which is precisely what exerting force entails he remembered that the strongest force exertion manual on earth the 9-fold thunderblade could achieve a seven-fold increase my martial artist certification was issued food yesterday. It must have already been delivered to my home. I can also log into the internal network of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall, Extreme Home, to purchase manuals and various items. With this thought, Wongi felt an overwhelming sense of anticipation as he hurried toward the subway station. Furthermore, his family should be moving into their new villa soon. A smile radiated from Wong Yi's face after spending so long in this world. This was the most relaxed he had ever felt. Meanwhile, in the affordable housing district of Guing, Joe Jong City, the news regarding building D23 had spread like wildfire. Have you heard the son of the Wong family in building 23 has become a martial artist? The Wong family? You're referring to Wong Shan Son, aren't you? Isn't he still a high school student? Who told you this? My uncle lives over there in building 23 and he said he saw someone from the martial arts hall personally deliver Wong Yei's martial artist qualification certificate to Wong Shan's home yesterday. Is that true? Isn't Wongi only 18? How could he possibly become a martial artist? Each person who heard this news was struck with disbelief. In this era, being a martial artist holds a unique significance, symbolizing strength, status, wealth, and glory. Countless young individuals dream of becoming martial artists. Yet, the vast majority fall short of realizing this ambition, making those who do achieve it exceedingly rare, especially in affordable housing areas, which are typically inhabited by ordinary people. The emergence of a martial artist naturally attracts immense attention. The Wong family suddenly became a hot topic. Once it was confirmed that Wongi indeed had become a martial artist, the Wong family transformed into the most sought-after entity in the entire Guang Yuan community. From yesterday to today, countless individuals flocked to the Wong residence to catch a glimpse. The Wong family's door remained tightly shut as Wong Shan found himself overwhelmed by the deluge of visitors eager to inquire about his son's newfound status. Even his own relatives and neighbors, as well as colleagues from work, had come knocking, which was rather excessive and left Wong Shan struggling to cope. Despite feeling physically and mentally drained, Wong Sean's heart brimmed with excitement and joy. When his son had initially expressed his desire to participate in the preliminary martial artist assessment, Wong Shan had been reluctant to consent. In his view, the notion of becoming a martial artist seemed too abstract. The college entrance examination was far more critical. It was only through his son's insistence that he reluctantly agreed. Yet to his astonishment, his son not only passed the preliminary assessment, but was also valued by the extreme martial arts hall, directly obtaining his martial artist qualification. This was no ordinary achievement. Even the leaders of their district had a treat with utmost respect. And in their community, there had never been a family that produced a martial artist. Those who aspired to become martial artists had long since moved away, leaving no one behind in affordable housing. Wong Shans heart was flooded with boundless joy, and he could hear his wife speaking in the room with their married eldest daughter. A conversation that had persisted for over an hour. When would it come to an end? Even now, Wong Sean felt as though he were in a dream. The surprise his son had brought him was so immense that it felt somewhat unreal. Suddenly, the phone in his hand rang. Wong Sean hardly picked it up, seeing that it was his son calling, and quickly answered, "Dad, I'm back." Came Wong Yi's cheerful voice from the other end.
