Inside the room.

  "Our cultivation contract is absolutely better than the A-level contract of Xinghuo Martial Temple." The thin and tall officer surnamed Ji continued to throw out his terms, tempting Li Yuan.

  The conditions are indeed very favorable.

  "Senior Ji."

  "I have already signed with Xinghuo Wudian." Li Yuan shook his head and said.

  "Signing doesn't mean you can't breach." The tall and thin officer with the surname Ji smiled, "We'll pay the penalty for you, no need to spend your own money."

  "No."

  Li Yuan shook his head and said, "Ji senior, I was able to grow so quickly largely thanks to the help of Xinghuo Wudian. Everything else can be negotiated... but this matter is the only exception, forgive me for not being able to do it."

  Li Yuan has his own bottom line.

  At first, Wan Tiancheng signed himself with a C-level contract, which was already overpriced based on his performance.

  Later, Wu Dian arranged a series of resource cultivation, and his own abilities advanced so much in just half a year.

  As a human being, one cannot forget his origin.

  The most important thing is that after returning from here, I can try to reach the Meteorite rank on the Starry Sky Battle Network... At that time, my B-level contract in the Starfire Martial Hall can also be upgraded to an A-level contract.

  The special training contract of the university and the cultivation contract of the Martial Temple are independent of each other and do not interfere with each other.

  But like Xinghuo Wudian, Xingkong Wudian, Wudao Hall or some other large groups cultivate contracts, only one can be signed.

  These are explicitly stipulated in the Bushi Law.

  "Haha, alright then, I won't insist." said the tall and thin officer with the surname Ji, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes.

  He hopes Liyuan can agree.

  However, if Li Yuan really agreed immediately, he would instead look down on Li Yuan in his heart... This mentality is not contradictory.

  "Li Yuan, I'm increasingly appreciating you." The tall and thin officer with the surname Ji smiled and said: "Alright, on behalf of the Jiangbei Xing Sheng Military Region, I'll sponsor 1 million Blue Star Coins for you."

  "This time, don't refuse again." said the tall and thin officer with the surname Ji, smiling.

  "What? One million?" Li Yuan was slightly shocked.

  "Don't worry, there's no other requirement." The tall and thin officer with the surname Ji smiled: "This is a simple sponsorship. Although you can't join the military, if you can grow up and contribute to the country in the future, what does it matter whether or not you join the military?"

  Li Yuan felt a twinge of emotion and couldn't help but ask: "What about Wu Dongdong and the others?"

  "They? Not needed!" The tall and thin officer with the surname Ji shook his head, laughing: "Resources are given to us, we think it's worth it, won't be wasted."

  Li Yuan was silent, and he vaguely understood why only Tian Dazhuang and himself were called.

  The background is too prominent and overshadows everything else.

  "Come on, let's take a sponsored photo together." The tall and thin officer with the surname Ji smiled and said: "Don't worry, there will be a sponsorship contract sent to your virtual personal space later, don't worry, there won't be any restrictions."

  "One million Blue Star Coins, arriving within one week."

  ……

  After seeing Li Yuan off, a tall and thin officer with the surname Ji leisurely started drinking tea again and waited for another two minutes.

  A military officer with the surname Wang walked in, a smile on his face.

  "Is it done?" asked the tall and thin officer with the surname Ji.

  "It's settled." The officer with the surname Wang nodded: "The Martial Hall has signed a contract, in the future they will have to be assigned somewhere. Why can't we arrange for them to go to our military? I'll report it immediately and let the higher-ups make arrangements."

  "A martial arts genius like Tian Dazhuang is not easy to rob." The burly officer with the surname Wang smiled and said, "What about you?"

  "It didn't work out." A tall and thin officer with the surname Ji shook his head and sighed: "Li Yuan is a good kid, what a pity."

  "It's normal if it doesn't work out, after all, Xinghuo Wudian has already signed a contract."

  "If you casually promise a few words, he wants to breach the contract, then it's better to be cautious." The Wang surname officer smiled and said: "If you think it's okay, why not help him?"

  "How can we help? The highest sponsorship we have is only one million." The thin and tall officer with the surname Ji looked puzzled.

  "Haha, today I'm smarter than you." The officer with the surname Wang showed a smile: "Who says sponsorship is helping?"

  "We just need to leak the news that we're recruiting Li Yuan with an 'S-level contract' and was rejected, then let the message spread to Xinghuo Martial Temple."

  "Xīnghuǒ Wǔ Diàn zhǐyào bù chún, zìrán zhīdào zěnme zuò." Wáng xìng jūn guān xiào dào.

  Translation:

  "As long as Xinghuo Martial Hall is not stupid, they will naturally know what to do." The Wang surname officer smiled and said.

  "I only promised an A-level contract, we don't have S-level contract authorization." The thin and tall officer with the surname Ji frowned.

  "Xīnghuǒ Wǔ Diàn yòu bù zhīdào wǒmen méi dé dào shàngmian shòuquán." Wáng xìng jūn guān bìng bù zài yì.

  Translation:

  "The Starfire Martial Hall doesn't know we didn't get the authorization from above." The Wang surname officer wasn't concerned.

  "If it gets out of hand, what will we say when the higher-ups ask us why we promised an 'S-level contract'?" The thin, tall officer with the surname Ji still had some concerns.

  "Somebody is spreading rumors! Besides, nobody asked about this little matter, it's under my dad's jurisdiction."

  ……

  On the playground.

  Li Yuan and Tian Dazhuang walked towards the distant train together.

  Li Yuan's height has reached 185, which is much higher than Tian Dazhuang.

  "Li Yuan, have you signed?" Tian Da Zhuang said in a low voice, unable to help but speak up.

  The two of them had remembered each other from a few days ago, but this was their first conversation.

  "No." Li Yuan shook his head and directly asked back: "Did you sign?"

  "Not entirely thought out, but I have a rough idea." Tian Da Zhuang smiled: "I was specially recruited by the Martial Arts Hall, and after graduating from university, I was supposed to be assigned anyway."

  Li Yuan nodded and said, "Joining the military is actually quite good."

  "Uh-huh."

  "But my dad wants me to return to the county in the future and strive to become the head of the Martial Arts Bureau." Tian Dazhuang said in a low voice: "He says it's not only safe, but also glorious for our ancestors."

  Li Yuan also said with a smile: "My aunt wanted me to be a martial arts school teacher before, saying that this life is safe and peaceful."

  After hearing each other, the two fell silent for two seconds at the same time. Then, they looked at each other and burst out laughing.

  Laughing very naturally and unrestrainedly.

  Then, the two of them strode towards the train together in big steps.

  No more words were needed; both of them understood each other's thoughts and aspirations.

  A young man's shaking of his clothes can be a banner for eternal style; A young man's glance can also be an idea for an eternally clear stream.

  Young man, always with hope in your heart and never retreat.

  This is what it means to be young.

  ……

  After passing through the Stellar Boundary Entrance, Li Yuan and Lin Lan Yue arrived at the underground train station of Jiangbei Wuda.

  Get off the bus and go upstairs.

  After returning their equipment and changing into new clothes, all the students walked out of the building, boarded the sightseeing bus, and headed towards the cafeteria.

  It's not yet six o'clock, the sun is slightly westward, and a gentle breeze blows by, making people feel very comfortable.

  "It feels great to be back." Wu Dongdong stretched his waist, feeling quite sentimental.

  Li Yuan couldn't help but smile.

  Indeed, after experiencing life and death struggles in the Devil Star Realm, one can truly appreciate the preciousness of peace and tranquility upon returning.

  "How is it? Li Yuan." Lin Lanyue asked softly beside him: "Have you agreed to join the military?"

  "I didn't agree." Li Yuan said: "But the military promised to sponsor me with one million Blue Star coins, no conditions were mentioned."

  Giving without seeking reward?

  To be honest, when Officer Ji spoke up, Li Yuan was somewhat skeptical in his heart, but the entire process indeed had no issues.

  Not even signing for myself, let alone e-signing on a virtual network immediately.

  "How did you know the military would look for me?" Li Yuan asked in a low voice.

  "The object of military sponsorship."

  "Usually there are three criteria." Lin Lan Yue said calmly: "First, the potential is great enough to have the hope of becoming a flying warrior."

  "Secondly, the family is not wealthy."

  "Thirdly, he preferred to sponsor students who had a sense of justice and patriotism."

  "You, perfectly matched." Lin Lanyue smiled and said: "The actual combat assessment is also the first, what the army admires most is the actual combat effectiveness, rather than the test scores. So I guess you will definitely be selected."

  "Awesome." Li Yuan said sincerely.

  Li Yuan realized that Lin Lan Yue seemed to have a grasp of everything in the Moon Demon Realm, even military matters were clear to her.

  The background is so grand, it's probably beyond one's own imagination.

  "What is the military's goal?" Li Yuan was slightly puzzled: "And no demands were made."

  "If in the future one day you become a flying warrior, and the military has an action that needs the help of a flying warrior, they will invite you to come." Lin Lan Yue smiled: "Will you come?"

  Li Yuan was taken aback.

  "The flying warriors, in a certain sense, their personal power has surpassed the secular world and cannot be constrained by simple laws, but rather need to be restrained by emotions." Lin Lan Yue continued.

  Li Yuan nodded, understanding Lin Lan Yue's meaning.

  What if the military encounters a major crisis and needs some flying warriors to go into battle?

  It's not like issuing an order and the Flying Swordsmen will strictly enforce it.

  The strength of the flying warriors gives them the qualification to say 'no'.

  The military operation made Li Yuan think of the reward from Jiangbei Wudao University, which is essentially "tying a good knot".

  However.

  Kanbuk University is a wide net, while the military selects only from among the very top students.

  "Let's go."

  "Go eat first." Lin Lan Yue smiled and said: "You've consumed so much during the day, you have to eat more at night."

  "Good food! Good food!" Next to him, Wu Dongdong got excited: "Today I'm going to have six portions."

  Several people laughed.

  Li Yuan had long discovered that Wu Dongdong, although born into a noble family, never picked at his food when eating.

  Like a gourmet reincarnated, I welcome all who come.

  ……

  Night fell, after dinner, Li Yuan and Gu Qiang returned to their dormitory.

  Ouch!

  Li Yuan directly took out the large gun from the armory cabinet.

  "Huh? Li Yuan, aren't you tired? You still want to practice today?" Gu Jian looked at Li Yuan as if he was a monster.

  "Let's practice some more." Li Yuan said with a smile.

  Are you tired? Of course I'm tired.

  Can't practice? Can't.

  "Alright, alright." Gu Qiang said with a shake of his head: "You continue practicing, I'm going to sleep now."

  He slammed his bedroom door shut.

  Li Yuan smiled faintly and his gaze fell back on the long spear. His smile faded and he practiced with the spear in silence.

  Hush! Hush!

  Gun shadows flicker like stars, rolling unstoppable, body like a swimming dragon, changing unpredictably like the wind.

  Xīng chén qiāng fǎ, lóng xíng shēn fǎ, bǐ cǐ pèi hé zhe xiū liàn.

  Translation:

  Stellar Gun Method and Dragon Stride Body Method, mutually complementing each other in cultivation.

  For Li Yuan, although his body was exhausted, his physical skills had just broken through the fourth stage today, and it was time to consolidate his cultivation.

  Any improvement is good.

  Qualitative change comes from quantitative change.

  "The four-stage cultivation is based on the unity of body and mind, step by step excavating the greater potential of the body." Li Yuan thought to himself: "The speed of progress is obviously much slower than that of the three stages."

  This practice went on until after nine o'clock, with sweat dripping onto the ground. Li Yuan's body was exhausted to the extreme.

  This is where it truly stops.

  "【Your Body Technique Boundary has been upgraded from 4th stage 1% to 4th stage 2%】" Li Yuan glanced over the prompt from half an hour ago.

  "It's past midnight."

  "The seven-day cooling period for the promotion tournament is over, and I can try again for the 'Meteor Promotion Tournament'. Li Yuan was quite looking forward to it: "Last time when I broke into the global top 1000, my skills were only three segments complete."

  How about now?

  Whether it's marksmanship or close combat skills, they have all entered the fourth stage, and their strength has surged greatly compared to last time.

  "At that time, there were still 5 million Blue Star Coins."

  ……

  At ten o'clock, Li Yuan took a bath and changed into his pajamas, feeling extremely comfortable all over.

  Sitting cross-legged on the soft bed.

  The sound insulation system in the room is very good.

  "Gu Qianghan should be asleep."

  "Now let's take a look at what 'Source Energy Entering the Body' is." Li Yuan gently closed his eyes, and his consciousness had already entered the spiritual world.
