"Many martial artists from other bases have come today, as well as the diplomatic representatives from the Borneo base. All of you must perform well!" instructed Sikou Nanbo.
After that, he returned to the audience seats with the other instructors.
"First, Vitality and combat strength test!"
A loud voice spread throughout the gymnasium from all directions.
There were machines specialized in testing Vitality and combat strength placed in front of the recruits.
"Lin Ye!"
The first person whose name was called was one of Su Hei's gang.
Martial artists with Swordsman Class talent were quite strong.
"Relax."
Su Hei comforted.
Lin Ye nodded and walked forward confidently, placing his palm on the machine.
In the next second, a bright light started to shine.
Soon, the result was out.
"Vitality 39!"
The instructor in charge of announcing the results shouted out the data displayed on the machine.
Lin Ye's expression did not change as he turned to the other machine beside him.
He raised his hand and threw a punch.
Boom!
On the machine, the numbers quickly changed and stopped.
"Combat strength 3,610, intermediate-level martial artist!"
Applause sounded from all directions.
The purpose of boot camp was to allow martial artists who entered the martial arts world to adapt to the changes in their strength and learn how to cultivate and fight.
Those who could reach the intermediate-level martial artist level at the end of the boot camp period were already very outstanding martial artists.
Most of them were only beginner-level martial artists.
Next, the recruits whose names were called went forward to the testing machines.
Compared to a month ago, everyone had made considerable progress.
Other than Lin Ye, Wang Dong, Jiang Jinyu, and Chu Chen were all intermediate-level martial artists. Li Hua was only one step away from becoming an advanced-level martial artist!

"Next, Bai Tiantian!"
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Team Three.
Bai Tiantian was the only girl among the many geniuses in this recruit tournament. Her rare Beast Tamer Class talent, coupled with her adorable looks, naturally attracted a lot of attention.
"The only female team leader. I wonder if her strength has become stronger compared to the recruitment examination."
"This is Bai Tiantian you're talking about! She's known as a genius. How could she not become stronger after so long?"
"I just don't know if she can maintain her position as the third team leader."
Under the burning gazes of hundreds of thousands of spectators, Bai Tiantian walked to the testing machine.
She placed her palm on it, and after a while, the results appeared on the monitor.
"Vitality 150!"
As soon as the results were out, the entire venue was in an uproar.
"A Vitality of 150 is already extremely powerful among Perfected martial artists."
"Just as expected of a genius teenage girl!"
"But it's common for a beast tamer to have high Vitality. The most important thing is her combat strength."
Right on the heels of that, Bai Tiantian threw a punch at the combat strength testing machine.
"Combat strength 20,480, Perfected martial artist!"
Looking at the numbers displayed on the machine, Bai Tiantian was very satisfied.
Although the increase in her combat strength was slightly lower than what she had expected, as a beast tamer, her Vitality was higher than her combat strength.
For an outstanding beast tamer, the combination of the two could produce an effect that was greater than the two alone.
The audience was full of praise for Bai Tiantian.
Everyone looked at her with a mixture of envy and admiration.

"Next, Zhang Xiaofan!"
Zhang Xiaofan was the unexpected dark horse in the recruitment examination.
Hence, as soon as he appeared, many people cast him curious glances.
They all wanted to know if this ordinary-looking youth would give an outstanding performance again.
Zhang Xiaofan placed his palm on the Vitality testing machine.
"Vitality 145!"
The result was announced.
The audience immediately cried out in surprise.
"As usual, he's the dark horse again!"
"His class talent is Swordsman. His Vitality doesn't have an innate advantage, but he can rival Bai Tiantian."
"A dark horse, he's definitely a dark horse!"
However, that was not all.
Zhang Xiaofan turned to the combat strength test machine and waved his palm gently.
A powerful wind erupted from his palm, tearing through the air.
Swoosh!
The machine trembled violently under the force of his attack, and the numbers on it quickly changed.
"Combat strength 20,480, Perfected martial artist!"
The unbelievable result stunned everyone. Following that, their faces were filled with shock.
"I thought everyone said that Zhang Xiaofan's martial arts talent is below Bai Tiantian's? Why is his score higher than hers?"
"21,886. It's more than 12,000 pounds higher than his result in the previous combat strength test!"
"In just a month, his combat strength has doubled!"
"From the looks of it, he's the one who improved the most among the five team leaders!"
In the audience seats.
Zhan Kong and Tang Guosheng were also shocked by Zhang Xiaofan's test results.
"From the information listed about him, Zhang Xiaofan seems to be an ordinary person, yet he can continuously give us surprises. It's commendable!"
"Mr. Sikou has managed to bring out this student's full potential. How incredible!"
Two people were talking. One of them was an important member of the Quilton Base's internal affairs, and the other was the person with the highest rank in the City Defense Team.
The fact that he could get their approval was enough to show how shocking Zhang Xiaofan's performance was.
-
The test continued.
After Zhang Xiaofan, Cao Guangning went on stage to accept the test.
"The glory of this recruit tournament will definitely belong to me, Cao Guangning!" he thought to himself.
Cao Guangning glanced at Su Hei and walked straight to the testing machine.
There was no doubt that Su Hei was very strong, but he also believed that with his martial arts talent, it would be easy for him to surpass Su Hei.
"Vitality 127!"
The Warrior class talent focused on strength, so it was normal for his Vitality to be slightly lower.
Seeing his result, Cao Guangning did not show any dissatisfaction.
Right on the heels of that, he turned around to face the combat strength testing machine.
His desire to be the most outstanding person overwhelmed him and all the strength in his body gathered in his right fist. His eyes were blazing with determination.
Boom!
He unleashed all of his power.
"Combat strength 20,480, Perfected martial artist!"
This result got the crowd murmuring amongst themselves.
"Not bad. It's enough to crush other martial artists."
"These team leaders are really terrifying. The boot camp has just ended, and each of them already has the strength of a Perfected martial artist."
"What an enviable genius!"
In a month, Cao Guangning's combat strength had almost doubled.
Other than Zhang Xiaofan, he was the fastest to improve.
Cao Guangning was secretly delighted. At the same time, he looked at Su Hei—who was waiting for his turn—with disdain in his eyes.
"So what if your starting point is high? With my cultivation speed, it won't be long before I defeat you with my own hands!" he thought.

"Next, Li Burou!"
Even under such circumstances, Li Burou still took his time.
After a few months, everyone understood his personality and did not find it strange.
However, some of the audience who had only heard of Li Burou's name and did not know of his personality had quite an agitated reaction to his behavior.
"Why does this guy look so smug?"
"Most of the new recruits are more serious than others. He's the only one who's still smiling. He deserves a beating."
"What do you know? This is the confidence of an expert."
"Two of the five team leaders of the boot camp are second only to that genius with the monstrous talent. If it was me, I'd also be that calm."
"Hehe, I think he knows that he's going to lose the title of second team leader, so he's putting on a show here."
"That's right. The other team leaders who have already appeared did very well. I think Li Burou is just so-so."
Just as everyone was discussing, the results of Li Burou's Vitality test had already been announced.
"Vitality 189!"
Instantly, the audience who were complaining about Li Burou earlier fell silent.
