Swallowed Star: Drawing Talents

Hong's sudden arrival surprised him greatly.

However, what astonished him was that the head director had come to Jiangnan City specifically for someone who had just passed the martial artist assessment.

Initially, Zhuge Tao hadn't included Yang Wu's advanced warrior-level physical fitness in the uploaded data.

However, he forgot that the Extreme Martial Arts Hall's testing machine was connected to the Extreme Main Hall's data, and the Extreme Main Hall's punching force testing machine data was naturally connected to the headquarters.

Once Yang Wu's data was uploaded.

Micro-level movement technique, less than a month of gene energy cultivation, and advanced warrior-level physical fitness, this unusual set of data immediately attracted the attention of the headquarters' AI.

It was then reported to Hong, and less than two months later, Hong issued a strange order to the higher-ups of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall.

Maintain attention! Maintain distance! Maintain silence!

"The head director's decision is indeed wise, not letting anyone interfere with your progress and allowing you to develop on your own."

"What I didn't expect was that in just a few months, your strength has reached this level."

Yang Wu's growth rate was truly beyond Supervisor Liu's expectations.

In just a few months, in the blink of an eye, Yang Wu had grown from a small sapling into a towering tree.

Advanced God of War!

His strength is almost on par with mine!

"Yang Wu, you purchased the third level of Annihilation half a month ago, could it be that you…"

Supervisor Liu was also curious about this, knowing that he also cultivated the Annihilation spear technique.

Over the past decade, he had already cultivated the Annihilation spear technique to the fourth level and was now touching the edge of the fifth level.

"Yes, I broke through to the third level."

"Indeed, you have broken through to the third… what?"

"The third level?"

Supervisor Liu was directly stunned, successfully breaking through to the third level in half a month. Comparing it to his own snail-like cultivation speed, he felt utterly inadequate.

"No wonder the director didn't use the machine to test you when he arrived."

"With the talent and comprehension you've shown, even if you've taken treasures to improve your physical fitness, it doesn't matter anymore."

For a moment, Supervisor Liu felt a bit emotional. Looking back, he was once considered a genius himself, and over the years, he had seen many geniuses.

But no one had grown as rapidly as Yang Wu, not even the head director Hong had such a fast cultivation speed.

"Yang Wu, you should have wondered why no other forces have come to recruit you during this time, given the amazing talent you've shown."

After a long while, Supervisor Liu calmed down and slowly brought up this issue.

And this was indeed something Yang Wu had wondered about.

Since he revealed his talent at the Extreme Main Hall and accepted Director Zhuge Tao's first investment, he had prepared himself for the challenges that would come his way.

As a result, his life was still the same as before, and nothing had changed at all.

Thinking about those super geniuses, after their talents were displayed, various forces came to poach them.

Government armies came to recruit, special organizations came to recruit, or some families from the HR alliance came to recruit…

Perhaps using money to corrupt, perhaps using beauties to seduce, perhaps using power to attract… In short, they would try every means to poach such super geniuses.

Others were experiencing all sorts of changes, but when it came to him, it was calm and peaceful.

It felt a bit like—

Single player mode!

"That's because the head director personally ordered that you be designated as a core member of our Extreme Martial Arts Hall."

"Otherwise, with your monstrous talent, how could no one have come to poach you?"

Generally speaking, even if someone joins a certain force, as long as they are not an internal core member or involved in its core secrets.

Then the current force will not force the member to stay, but you may need to pay liquidated damages for terminating the contract.

Therefore, even members of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall, as long as they have not become core members, other forces have the opportunity to poach them.

Of course, this is just a general situation. For some powerful forces, they don't care whether you are a core member or have been exposed to core secrets.

What they want is you!

But at least in the Extreme Martial Arts Hall, especially regarding Hong's decision, no one dares to stroke the tiger's whiskers.

Seeing Yang Wu's confusion, Supervisor Liu slowly explained these reasons.

With Hong's special order, other forces naturally did not dare to stroke the tiger's whiskers, but because of this, he received even more attention.

And his itinerary, his past, were probably also in the hands of those forces that were paying attention to him.

However, one thing Yang Wu did not expect was.

The testing machine in his villa was just something Zhuge Tao had installed specifically for him to test his strength.

With Director Zhuge Tao's authority, installing some high-end testing machines was not an act of overreach.

……

Jiangnan City, main urban area, airport.

Just as Supervisor Liu was answering Yang Wu's questions, this airport welcomed a special passenger.

In the airport waiting area were the president of the Extreme Main Hall, Zhou Zhengyong, and his three directors.

The four giants gathered here to welcome a guest from afar.

Soon, a giant saucer-shaped passenger plane, entirely dark blue, passed through the city's defense system and slowly landed at the airport.

The cabin door opened, extending a staircase passage, and passengers filed out of the plane.

"Old Yang!"

Upon seeing a familiar figure, the president of the Extreme Main Hall, Zhou Zhengyong, immediately shouted.

"Haha, Iron Hand, long time no see."

A middle-aged man in a gray robe walked over with a smile.

"Old Yang, in the blink of an eye, it's been almost eight years since we last met. The headquarters sent you here this time for that Yang Wu, right?"

After hugging the middle-aged man, Iron Hand Zhou Zhengyong asked with a smile.

"Mr. Yang!"

The three directors next to him, including Zhuge Tao, also called out respectfully.

The special envoy Yang Hui, who came from headquarters, was a middle-level God of War martial artist. Whether in terms of martial strength or status, he was comparable to Zhou Zhengyong, known as Iron Hand.

"It has been eight years since we last met."

"I'm here this time mainly to take Yang Wu to headquarters. This is what the hall master personally ordered."

Hall Master!

The word came from the mouth of special envoy Yang Hui, and the expressions of the three directors next to him, including Zhou Zhengyong, immediately became solemn.

"I didn't expect that Yang Wu could alarm the hall master."

Zhou Zhengyong said with some emotion.

"Yes, you don't know, when the hall master's order was issued, the people at headquarters were almost in an uproar."

"Enough said, I'll go pay my respects to the supervisor first."

Seemingly thinking of the faces of some people at headquarters, Yang Hui shook his head and said.

"Let's go, the supervisor is at the Extreme Main Hall, we'll go pay our respects together."

Immediately, headquarters special envoy Yang Hui and the four giants of the Jiangnan City Extreme Martial Arts Hall left the airport together.

Heading to the Extreme Main Hall.
