Chapter 13: The Martial Arts Assessment

“I heard that once you pass the assessment and obtain the Martial Artist Card, you can accept a mission from the Martial Arts Administration and receive a reward.

“After the assessment is over, I’ll go and see what mission is suitable for me.”

Andrew thought as he handed in the completed form.

After the receptionist checked the information, he led Andrew to the second floor.

When they reached the second floor, another employee was waiting at the stairway. He smiled and said, “Hello, Mr. Andrew. Are you starting the Martial Arts Assessment now?”

“Yes.”

“Well, please follow me.”

Andrew followed behind the staff and stopped in front of the door of Assessment Room No. 2.

As they waited for some time, the door of the exam room suddenly opened, and a scream came out from inside.

“No!

“Give me another chance. I made a mistake just now.

“If I perform normally, I will definitely pass the exam!”

A middle-aged man wearing a combat uniform with a cold expression held a gray-haired youth in one hand.

No matter how the gray-haired youth struggled and explained, the man’s expression did not change at all.

He directly threw the gray-haired youth out of the assessment room.

“Your Blood Qi has barely reached the standard, and your speed is still passable, but your reaction speed is slightly below average. However, you have no grasp of battle techniques at all.

“Familiarize yourself with your battle techniques and train properly for some time. Then come back for the assessment.”

The gray-haired youth fiercely hammered the ground before getting to his feet.

When he was dusting himself, he noticed that there were two people beside him.

“What are you looking at? Brat, do you think you can pass the assessment?”

The gray-haired youth glared at Andrew and cursed.

Andrew shook his head. “Your viciousness is too strong. Even if you become a fighter, you will only bully the weak.”

When the middle-aged man in the assessment room heard this, his eyes lit up.

“You are Andrew?”

Andrew nodded.

“I am Edward, the staff in charge of the assessment. Come in.”

The middle-aged man closed the door and explained to Andrew, “The Martial Arts Assessment has four requirements: Blood Qi, speed, reaction, and battle technique.

“As for the cultivation of a martial artist, once the Blood Qi reaches 150, one can begin to refine their bones. There are 206 bones in the human body, including 29 in the skull, 51 in the torso, and 126 in limbs and legs.

“Once the torso bones and the limb bones are all tempered, one can be considered to have entered the ranks of martial artists.

“The minimum Blood Qi standard for a first-grade martial artist is 500.”

The man pointed at an instrument and said, “If you use your full strength and attack the punching target three times, the testing instrument will judge your Blood Qi based on your explosive power. The highest score of the three times will be the final result.”

Andrew walked to the Blood Qi testing instrument. This was the second time he had seen such a thing.

There were many circuits behind the punching target, which were connected to a computer.

In the last school martial arts assessment, he did not have time to test his own strength.

Looking at the other students, even if they used their full strength, they would only be able to get around 100 Blood Qi points.

“However, why do I feel that I can blow up this punching target?

“Illusion, this must be an illusion. After people obtain great power, they will think that they are invincible in the world. Just as Sister said, the path of martial arts can not be underestimated. There are Ultimate powerhouses above the Grandmaster realm, not to mention that I am only at Qi Formation Second Grade.

“Above the Qi Formation realm, there’s still the Spirit Refinement realm, Primordial Spirit realm, and Earth Immortal realm. After that, only when one undergoes the Thunder Tribulation can one be considered a Heaven Immortal. I must not be proud.”

Andrew calmed his heart and circulated his Qi.

He did not hold back at all, gathering all the Qi in his body. Andrew stepped forward with his left foot and attacked with all his strength. He threw a punch at the target.

Bang!

Just as he threw his punch, a muffled explosion sounded in the air.

When his fist came into contact with the boxing target, a violent sound reverberated in the assessment room for a long time.

Edward, who was standing behind Andrew, narrowed his eyes. He was forced to take two steps back.

His face was full of shock!

The target shook violently, causing the body of the machine to tremble incessantly. However, it did not explode.

After one or two minutes, the vibrating target finally stopped.

“I was still thinking of blowing up the target with one punch.

“As expected, this is all an illusion. Fortunately, I woke up in time and did not become proud.”

Andrew steadied his posture and threw two more punches. The power was even stronger than the first punch.

Bang!

Crack!

The two loud sounds were not the same.

When the third punch hit the target, the target directly exploded.

This???

Andrew’s face suddenly became stiff. Looking at the exploding target, he was a little speechless.

“That… the quality of your equipment is too poor, right?

“Also, you asked me to use all my strength. If this thing is broken, I won’t be responsible for the compensation!”

The assessment fee alone was 500. God knew how expensive this set of equipment would be.

He wouldn’t ask him to use the B-grade composite metal blade as collateral, right?

He hadn’t even had the time to use it.

Edward didn’t hear what Andrew said at all.

After a long while, he came back to his senses. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the computer screen connected to the Blood Qi testing machine.

Blood Qi value: 3560, 3640, 3700!

He turned his head and looked at Andrew with confusion.
