Chapter 57 Job
“Enmity arises from the intentions I have in my mind. I’ll just call the intention applied to the sword the Heart Sword,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.
Next, Chen Yiming started to test the power of the Heart Sword.
The forest began to get destroyed. Boulders taller than a human were broken into small pieces, and trees were chopped in half no matter how thick their trunks were.
After slashing out nearly a hundred times,
Chen Yiming suddenly stopped. He felt a little dizzy and he was thoroughly exhausted.
“The result of the test is that the limit should be 100 slashes, and the range is about an inch.
The range of one inch is very short, but it’s enough to be a secret finishing move in fights,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.
After completing this simple test, the sky had already turned completely bright.
Chen Yiming waited for Chen Yingying to finish her morning practice before sending her home. He then set off for the headquarters of the Mantis Snake Sword School.
On the second floor of the Mantis Snake Sword School’s headquarters was the head, Wan Rong’s, room.
Chen Yiming, Wang Bowen, and Wan Rong were sitting around a tea table. Each of them had a cup of tea in front of them. Steam was rising slowly from the cups.
Wang Bowen had told him the day before that there was an important matter to settle, and that was to bring him to see the head of the school, Wan Rong.
“Bowen has done a very good job at teaching. He has unearthed another student with strong potential,” Wan Rong said as he stroked his beard.
“No, it’s all because of your discerning eyes, Master. You could tell Yiming’s potential at a glance and directly took him in,” Wang Bowen said humbly.
“Yiming, I’ve already heard about what happened last night. I’m very satisfied with it You managed to kill two enemies who had undergone four transformations with your strength from the third transformation,” Wan Rong praised.
“The Mantis Snake Sword Technique is powerful to begin with. I’m just displaying what I’ve learned,” Chen Yiming said humbly.
“Haha, that’s right. The Mantis Snake Sword Technique has always been known for its lethality. As long as the gap in cultivation isn’t too great, killing enemies of a higher level isn’t impossible,” Wan Rong said with a smile.
He urged Chen Yiming and Wang Bowen to drink the tea.
“Yiming, you have already reached the level of the third transformation. I have arranged a job for you. What do you think?” Wan Rong asked.
“I’ll follow Master’s arrangements,” Chen Yiming replied.
“Having undergone three transformations, the strength of your body’s muscles is already worlds apart from that of an ordinary person. Ordinary blades can’t even pierce through your skin, so the effect of simply training is very poor,” Wan Rong explained. “At this time, you need stronger external factors to stimulate your body to continue improving. Therefore, I plan to arrange for you to work as a consultant at the Anteng Transportation Company. You can accumulate experience from your job of transporting supplies in the wilderness to prepare for your upcoming training in the wilderness.”
Chen Yiming remained silent as he thought to himself, “I have been relying solely on training and have reached the sixth transformation. I don’t think the effect is bad.”
Wang Bowen was afraid that Chen Yiming would overthink things, so he said, “Junior Brother Chen, don’t worry. The Anteng Transportation Company is a company under the Mantis Snake Sword School. Every time they leave the city to transport supplies, there are experts who have undergone six transformations leading the way. I went through this as well.”
Chen Yiming didn’t take the initiative to publicize his breakthroughs, so Wang Bowen had the impression that he was keeping too low a profile.
“Yiming, in the wilderness surrounding East Lake City, no one dares to openly attack the transport team from the Mantis Snake Sword School.” Wan Rong glanced at Chen Yiming and became absorbed in thought.
“…I didn’t say I wouldn’t dare to go. Senior Brother Wang has damaged my reputation.” Chen Yiming felt bitter about it but couldn’t say anything. It seemed that he would be leaving an impression of being a bit of a coward on the head.
Wan Rong then gave some instructions and passed the token representing his status as a core disciple to Chen Yiming.
Chen Yiming’s name was carved on it.
Chen Yiming and Wang Bowen left after everything was settled.
They exited from the Mantis Snake Sword School’s headquarters.
“Junior Brother Chen, Master’s arrangements are specially made with the disciples in mind, and are suited to the stage we are in. Don’t worry about it.
For example, I’m not far from the ninth transformation. After breaking through to the warrior realm, it’s no longer useful to fight and train in the wilderness. Therefore, Master arranged for me to do some teaching at the branch school,” Wang Bowen explained once again.
“Got it.” Chen Yiming nodded.
Wang Bowen, who had undergone eight transformations, was teaching in the branch school. Of course, Chen Yiming believed that Wan Rong was doing this for his own good.
After the two of them parted ways, Chen Yiming headed straight to the Anteng Transportation Company.
…
The Anteng Transport Company was located in an open area near the city gate on the west side of the city.
Most transportation companies in East Lake City were located here.
There was a huge parking lot nearby, filled with all kinds of large trucks.
When Chen Yiming found the company, he saw more than ten men practicing in the main hall. They were treating the main hall as a training ground.
After Chen Yiming took out his token to verify his identity,
Wang Jianyan called for the people to gather. “Everyone, come over quickly. Let’s welcome our new colleague.”
He was one of the three team leaders who had undergone six transformations in the Anteng Transportation Company. In the morning, he had already received a notice from the headquarters. He knew that a new core disciple would be coming to work, so he specially went to the company to pick him up.
“Brother, your figure looks a little thin.” Xiong Kai walked over and cracked a smile.
This person was nearly 2.2 meters tall, and his shoulders were more than twice as wide as an ordinary person’s. His entire body was covered in tanned muscle, and the ground trembled when he walked.
“Newcomer, don’t listen to his nonsense. This guy is always thinking about muscles.” Wei Chaoyuan gave Xiong Kai a push as he laughed.
Although he was not as strong as Xiong Kai, he was only a size smaller and was also over two meters tall.
“My name is Chen Yiming. I don’t have any experience in the wilderness, and I’m a newcomer. Please take care of me in the future,” Chen Yiming said.
He was here to accumulate survival experience in the wilderness, so there was nothing to hide.
“You’re direct enough. That’s how we like it,” Wang Jianyan said bluntly. “The first thing you need to know today is that the most important thing in a team working in the wilderness is to work well together and trust each other. The biggest taboo is to be selfish and not listen to orders. Everyone here is frank and straightforward.”
These words instantly brought their relationship closer. Chen Yiming quickly got to know more than ten of the men present.
These men were all members of the transport team. Each of them had at least the strength of three transformations, and a few had reached the level of five transformations.
“Brother Yiming, why don’t we spar?” Xiong Kai waited for the others to disperse before looking for Chen Yiming.
“Alright,” Chen Yiming agreed with a nod.
In the wilderness, strength spoke louder than words. They could face danger at any time.
When the time came, as teammates, they had to understand each other’s strength so that they could better cooperate in dealing with the danger.
Chen Yiming also had the intention to test the strength of his teammates. After all, even if they were at the same level, the difference in their cultivation techniques would result in a difference in their strength.
For example, those who practiced martial arts independently would often have the lowest strength among those of the same cultivation level. This was because most of the cultivation techniques they practiced were those that were made common knowledge.
As for those who came from a high-level faction in East Lake City, the cultivation techniques they cultivated could basically be used till they reached the sixth transformation. Their strength was relatively more stable.
Lastly, those who came from the top factions in East Lake City, such as the 13 martial arts school and the seven martial arts clans, practiced cultivation techniques that led straight to the warrior realm, and had the best combat power among their peers from the same realm.
