Sacred Martial Hall? Qin Fen replied with an “oh”. A person who could keep up his appearance in front of a major general that held real power in the military system was obviously not someone ordinary. There was a rumor that many generals have gone to the Sacred Martial Hall for training. The Sacred Martial Hall was closely related to the army.
Bai Sheng’s eyes that were full of pride stared at Qin Fen, flashed a glimpse of discontent.
It was a basic condition for a martial artist to have the ability to concentrate so that he could reach the peak of martial arts. However, there should be a limit to the concentration. He should express some emotions, especially when he hears the three words “Sacred Martial Hall”.
Surprise, excitement, nervousness! Bai Sheng met many young people that expressed their excitement after seeing a person from the Sacred Martial Hall standing in front of them. Qin Fen was the first person to remain so calm after hearing Sacred Martial Hall.
Sacred Martial Hall was a place where members, new and old, would always be proud of. It was a holy sanctuary forever in each of their heart!
Bai Sheng’s proud face showed a bit of unsatisfaction. As a commissioner of the Sacred Martial Hall, there was no need to keep his emotions to himself. Being able to express their own thoughts freely was a demeanor which a martial artist should have supposedly.
“Qin Fen, can you explain your attitude?”
Bai Sheng raised his chin high, and the temperature in the room seemed to drop rapidly. Qin Fen’s hairs were suddenly standing again. It was not because of the cold temperature but rather, Bai Sheng’s vicious breath, that caused an instinctive change in Qin Fen’s body.
“It was expected, that is why there is nothing to be surprised.” Qin Fen suppressed his body’s reaction and looked calm as usual, “I have heard that Sacred Martial Hall does not give an invitation to selected people according to their strength. But I don’t think that I’m less competent than Little Dragon King Yang Lie or Sky Splitter Brooks. Since they’ve received an invitation, it’s unlikely that I don’t. I’m not surprised by your appearance, as I’ve already had good mental preparation. ”
Bai Sheng’s eyes narrowed into slits, like a poisonous snake staring at a toad that could not escape, “You are very arrogant.”
“I am very confident.” Qin Fen shook his head with a smile, “Confident punches can make strong momentum. Arrogant punches seem to be defiant, but they are very weak.”
Bai Sheng was stunned. He never thought that his invited candidate this time was not only aiming to pursue star-classes or realms. He had already noticed the nature of a genuine punch.
These words were often showed only after a person passed through the assessment and experienced many things in the Sacred Martial Hall. He did not expect someone to understand it before they entered.
Bai Sheng nodded lightly and threw a portable electronic projector without making a rebuttal. The projector slid on the table and stopped steadily in front of Qin Fen.
“Your performance was great, Sacred Martial Hall is here to sincerely invite you.” Bai Sheng pointed to the projection that had begun to appear, “Sacred Martial Hall is not an inhumane place. There are some rules here but you can choose your future path.”
Qin Fen nodded slowly, his eyes did not leave the rotating projection screen.
Looking at the lines, Qin Fen began to understand that the Sacred Martial Hall was still quite different from the rumors.
The real Sacred Martial Hall was a very hierarchical place, divided into the outer Sacred Martial Hall and the inner Sacred Martial Hall. Some people would enter the outer Sacred Martial Hall while some would enter the inner Sacred Martial Hall according to the different ways the person used to enter the Sacred Martial Hall.
By comparison, the inner Sacred Martial Hall enjoyed far more benefits than the outer Sacred Martial Hall. For example, medicinal herbs to keep living and help breakthroughs. The outer hall was incomparable to the inner hall in both quality and quantity.
The same goes for martial arts. Be it paleo martial arts or neo martial arts, the inner Sacred Martial Hall surpassed the outer Sacred Martial Hall.
As for the notes and classics, the outer Sacred Martial Hall was also incomparable to the inner Sacred Martial Hall.
Talent was not enough for a person to enter the inner Sacred Martial Hall. One should have the strength and understanding of martial arts to be able to enter the inner Sacred Martial Hall.
Aside from the strict assessment, there was also a document to sign before a person joins the inner Sacred Martial Hall. A person must never betray the Sacred Martial Hall and strictly obey their command.
Correspondingly, Sacred Martial Hall would also give the most generous rewards. The rewards were not merely medicinal power and martial arts. The family of the members could also enjoy a high income. It could be said that as long as they do not use drugs or gamble, they could easily live a well-off life.
As for the people who joined Sacred Martial Hall, they would earn a high income that was beyond the imagination of the people outside. If a person completed the work given by the Sacred Martial Hall and improved the strength of their martial art, he or she would also receive corresponding rewards.
However, if a member accomplished nothing for a long period of time, his martial arts would be abolished and be kicked out of the inner Sacred Martial Hall.
Of course, the people in inner Sacred Martial Hall usually didn’t need to go out to work. As long as one had the strength, the person could even live in seclusion for ten years.
And there was even the opportunity to get the personal guidance of the beast-level master!
In martial arts, advice from a master was sometimes more useful than trying to find out yourself for ten years.
Overall, the inner Sacred Martial Hall was a very competitive place, but its benefits were also astonishingly large. Qin Fen was very tempted with the offer they provided.
If only there is no such condition similar to selling myself away… Qin Fen shook his head and smiled. I doubt they will give such good benefits without this condition, a condition that almost resembles selling your soul.
With a sigh, Qin Fen quickly gave up his thought to join the inner Sacred Martial Hall. He could not afford to play tricks with the Sacred Martial Hall that had stood for many years. His martial arts would be abolished if he tried to rebel against them.
The outer hall? Qin Fen found out that the outer Sacred Martial Hall also had different joining methods. The first was the reserved type that could allow one to retain equity. The members could retain some of their rights, and the remaining rights were given to the outer Sacred Martial Hall.
For example, if you go out and start a school after you finished your studies, then thirty percent of the income you receive will be paid to Sacred Martial Hall. The Sacred Martial Hall had the right to regain the martial arts if a person was found to be fiddling the account. His martial arts would be abolished if he tried to defy them.
Martial arts abolished! Qin Fen shivered, all martial artists have a few enemies. If their martial arts were abolished, then the fate of the martial artist would be really bad.
Although this was a society with a legal system, a hero would always break the law using martial arts. No one could guarantee what revenge the enemy of the martial artist would make.
The federation was not entirely a harmonious area today, for instance, Saturn… many killers would find a way to go to Saturn! It was a place with the name “Free World”.
Looking at the choice for the reserved type, Qin Fen began to understand that both the martial artists from the State of Korea’s Neo Taekwondo or the State of Japan’s neo Karate might have chosen this path. They went to Sacred Martial Hall to learn martial arts and selected this type of condition.
Qin Fen nodded slowly, this reserved type was considered fair. Sacred Martial Hall was not a charity hall. If you could not pay back anything for what you have learned, the Sacred Martial Hall might soon lose its prestige.
As for the last one, which was the preliminary type, almost all the rights were owned by martial artists, but the benefits that could be obtained from Sacred Martial Hall were also much lesser. Some people might think that it was a form of gold plating, so that it would be easier to look for jobs in the future.
After looking at the list of regulations, Qin Fen began to understand that most people would choose the reserved type. They could retain their equity and have freedom. They were only needed to pay part of their income and some subsidiary matters.
Qin Fen continued reading and realized that merely receiving the invitation to Sacred Martial Hall did not mean that you are a member of them. This was only the first assessment. A person was only considered qualified when he was given the projection display by the examiner.
After the initial test, there was another review and assessment. This assessment would take place upon arriving at Sacred Martial Hall.
Qualified people would become a member of Sacred Martial Hall and enjoy the benefits of the signed contract. Unqualified people would also receive a little compensation.
These compensations might not be a lot to wealthy families. But it meant a lot to ordinary families.
“What do you think?” Bai Sheng placed his chin on his hands and stared at Qin Fen with great interest, “Which plan do you choose? Young people, you must choose carefully. I have never given any opinions to the invitees, but you are an exceptional case. I think I need to talk about my opinion. You have great potential. If you joined us fully, there is no limit for your future.”
Zhao Huzi stared at Qin Fen, his eyes flashing with fiery excitement, as if he couldn’t wait for Qin Fen to agree to the invitation.
“Young people, Sacred Martial Hall do not only give you skills in martial arts.” Bai Sheng continued to say when he saw that Qin Fen remained silent, “I can also provide you with a guarantee that you can’t imagine. I have seen your profile. You went to the Golden Triangle and caused their honorary leader to not live in peace. He vowed to find you and kill you. You must understand that the power in the Golden Triangle is stronger than you think. It is likely that they will find you someday for revenge. If you join the Sacred Martial Hall, even the Golden Triangle would consider the consequences of being exterminated.”
Golden Triangle? Qin Fen’s eyes suddenly lit up. Was the killer that day sent out by the Golden Triangle?
“I heard that you also offended a high-ranking official in the army?” Bai Sheng spread his hands, “Any family with real power can deal with you easily now. Even though there are many drill instructors behind you, they can’t ensure your safety.”
Liang Tao? Qin Fen suddenly discovered that Bai Sheng from Sacred Martial Hall had investigated everything he did.
The conference room was once again quiet, and Bai Sheng stared confidently at Qin Fen’s thoughtful face.
The door of the African recruit conference room slowly opened.
“Reporting General! African lion mobile armor force captain, Colonel Clara came to report!”
