Ruan Xiongfei’s question was intriguing, as he didn’t care about the 15-level standard at all and started by asking about level 20. In his eyes, level 20 was what he considered an excellent cannon fodder, worthy of his personal effort.
Mu Fan looked at the bald uncle in front of him with his bright black eyes and grinned, "Level 20."
His voice wasn’t loud, but the nonchalant tone and casual smile once again threw a bomb into the room.
Enduring level 20 punching power, and having Bald Ruan personally take action, it wasn’t going to be just an ordinary straight punch.
"Kid, I’m starting to appreciate you more and more." Ruan Xiongfei laughed heartily as this kid was more and more to his taste now.
However, there was no way he could hold back.
Ruan Xiongfei walked up to Mu Fan, and the people around them automatically made space for these two. At this point in the exam, a variable had appeared, though it was a variable everyone present was happy to see.
Outside the arena, Zhang Yuanren looked at Mu Fan inside the arena with cold eyes, that kid!
The appearance of this kid had shattered everything he painstakingly built today, and now everyone’s expressions clearly didn’t pay much attention to his previously brilliant performance.
Damn it!
"Kid, stand firm." Ruan Xiongfei suddenly threw a punch.
When he was in the middle of the action, Mu Fan truly felt the terror of this big bald head, the omnipresent sense of oppression was a kind of spiritual realm intimidation.
However...
Heh, Mu Fan crossed his hands over his chest with a muffled groan.
Ruan Xiongfei’s huge fist stopped 20 centimeters in front of Mu Fan’s chest, with Mu Fan firmly blocking it.
The people around saw this simple punch and simple defense, but the scene erupted in astonishment. They saw Mu Fan’s shoes suddenly burst open, the soles flattened first, then the uppers split apart with a bang.
Such strong power, this was the strength of a true powerhouse!
Ruan Xiongfei nonchalantly withdrew his fist but didn’t plan to step down, instead, he playfully said, "Kid, I didn’t take that punch seriously, how about another test?"
It didn’t count because he wasn’t serious?
The old rogue! Now the observers from other academies were feeling distressed, this was surely a prime candidate. What if you really injured him?
Mu Fan spread out his hands, rubbed his wrists, and looked at the bald uncle in front of him, still nonchalant in his tone.
"Whatever."
Whatever!? Truly fierce. Some candidates present began to admire Mu Fan from the bottom of their hearts, and finally, a group of people started to become Mu Fan’s supporters. When you are strong, you naturally earn respect!
This is an era where the strong reign supreme!
"Alright, catch this, kid," Ruan Xiongfei reached his hand out in front of Mu Fan and slowly clenched it into a fist, then gradually pulled it back.
His eyes narrowed, his body leaped forward half a step, and the punch charged forward like a cannon!
Small-step cannon fist!
Mu Fan suddenly recalled the final move Wen Zheming used on Loga Star, but this technique had a smaller posture range.
What appeared to others as a disappearing punch was, in Mu Fan’s eyes, a fist gradually magnifying.
Dark Breath activated, and under strong perception, Mu Fan’s vision rapidly began tracking the trajectory of the fist.
Huh? Spiritual Perception?
Ruan Xiongfei suddenly felt as if the kid in front of him had changed, and the spiritual state transformation in that moment hadn’t escaped his keen eyes.
Even more interesting, huh.
The fist charged like a cannonball, already over halfway, with the air slicing apart in fierce, unseen pressure.
The incoming fist made Mu Fan’s temples throb, that threatening sense...
Definitely more than level 20!
He increased his strength! The laughter in Ruan Xiongfei’s eyes was an open declaration that he was going all out, come and face it.
Blood colored his vision, the veins on his arms bulged, Mu Fan took a deep breath, his eyes fierce, his entire motion swift and fluid.
He clamped his right arm tightly and suddenly held it down with his left hand. With a twist, his body leaned forward into a half-kneeling stance with his left leg, right leg bracing at an angle behind him, his entire being surged upward like a barbaric bull with its horns ready to strike, right elbow spiraling upward into the air then suddenly holding steady! Power surged through his waist, channeling all his body’s strength at one point.
The elbow began pushing the forearm down, forming a perfect straight line standing in mid-air!
Half Arm Guard!
In that split second, Mu Fan instinctively replicated a move he had once used.
Bang!
Ruan Xiongfei’s heavy fist collided fiercely with Mu Fan’s forearm.
Mu Fan skidded half a meter backward, scraping the ground.
"What move is that!?"
"That kid actually knows defensive fighting skill!"
"It’s not right, using this move, why did he slide back half a meter, that last punch didn’t cause him to retreat at all?" Finally, someone noticed this detail.
Yes, Mu Fan didn’t retreat at all in the last move.
With someone pointing it out, everyone present realized it, and an unbelievable thought began to grow in their hearts...
"Not bad, Candidate No. 697, endurance 21. That’s it."
Finally, Bald Ruan spoke the result that they couldn’t believe.
Endurance 21!
If you included the output strength from the teenager during that moment, with some added effort, his peak punching power might also be around 21.
Therefore, the teenager’s physical level should be—
Level 21!
My Star! The observers began unknowingly scribbling in their hands, with Mu Fan’s candidate No. 697 name being scrawled into a pure black mark, still being written.
The candidates present finally understood what kind of monster had emerged among them.
Ruan Xiongfei tilted his head, sizing up the kid in front, and from Mu Fan’s eyes, he saw the steadfastness and fighting spirit akin to a highland snow wolf.
This kid hadn’t yet reached his limit.
Of everyone present, only Ruan Xiongfei, as the actual examiner, understood this result.
Heh heh, just won’t continue testing. Save it for the combat stage, see what other surprises this kid has in store.
"Strength 20, Endurance 21, Physical Level 20, determination for Candidate No. 697 completed." The lieutenant noticed the signal Ruan Xiongfei gave, immediately understanding, and shouted out the result loudly.
Mu Fan’s result was out, and it was undoubtedly crushing all other candidates at this D zone testing center. Even Ruan Xiongfei didn’t think there’d be more talents like this to come.
Such talent, hmm, extremely excellent cannon fodder, was indeed what the current Federation Army needed most.
"Just want to throw him into the 114 Ace Infantry Regiment, tsk tsk."
Mu Fan had no idea what thoughts were spinning in the mind of the uncle who had just turned and left. In fact, there was no intention whatsoever to pull Mu Fan into the academy. Who knew if the principal of Dingchuan Academy would be enraged upon finding out.
Was it over?
Mu Fan swung his arm back and clenched his hands.
At this moment, the young man stood in the center of the field, momentarily overshadowing the entire crowd with his momentum!
When the gap becomes a form of despair, no one dares to say idle words.
"Candidates 701 to 710, please enter the arena." The lieutenant continued to dutifully call out.
As Mu Fan stepped off the field, the people inside and outside began to move, and discovering a civilian genius of this caliber was undoubtedly an attraction for various powerful factions.
Representatives of major academies had already begun using their channels to investigate detailed information about Mu Fan.
In A zone, hundreds of kilometers away, the fat guy was completely unaware of Mu Fan’s situation there; instead, he was flashing an innocent look at the invigilating teacher with a face full of melancholy.
