, Legendary Status Soars

The silver-gray "Mysterious Maiden-7" flying saucer fighter hovered on the top floor helipad of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall headquarters in Jiangnan Base City. A pale blue energy halo flowed around the edge of the fuselage, emitting a low hum.

Jiang Ming, carrying a specially made gun case, walked towards the gangway with Inspector Wang and Zhuge Tao.

Right at the edge of the tarmac, several people in dark blue uniforms were conducting final pre-flight checks.

One of the girls, who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, was looking down at her watch, her fingers rapidly tapping on the virtual keyboard.

Her name is Lin Xiaoyu, and she is a receptionist at the Extreme Martial Arts Academy. Today, she was assigned to assist with the operations at the helipad.

On the surface, she appeared as professional as the other staff members, with her head slightly bowed and her expression serious, as if she were checking some important data.

But in reality.....

Her heart was racing.

"Wow, wow, wow, I got a picture! Jiang Ming's unbeatable divine looks!!"

A photo was posted in a thread on the "Extreme Home" forum titled "[Live Coverage! Jiang Ming, the Strongest Rookie King in the History of Jiangnan Base City]".

In the afterglow of the setting sun, against the backdrop of silver-gray fighter jets, a young man in black with a gun holster on his back stands sideways, the fine silver lines between his brows faintly visible in the light.

As soon as the photo was posted, dozens of IDs that were squatting in the post and refreshing "Hurry up" immediately went wild.

"It really is Jiang Ming! May the poster live a long and peaceful life!"

"This photo! This profile! This aura! I declare myself a fan of Jiang Ming's looks and talent from today onwards!"

"The Mysterious Maiden-7... I heard even ordinary inspectors can't afford it. Is this the kind of influence Boss Jiang Ming has?"

"I've already saved the image. Also, be careful, OP, if you get caught taking photos without permission, you might have to write a self-criticism (doge emoji)."

"Hongning Base City! Elite Training Camp! Boss Jiang Ming, go for it! Give our Jiangnan Base City Mayor some face!"

"Our Jiangnan Base City has also produced a genius in the Elite Training Camp! This year, three geniuses from China have entered the Elite Training Camp, and the one with the highest talent is Boss Jiang Ming."

"Speaking of which, with such a genius going to the training camp, will our China produce an invincible war god in the future?"

"Invincible God of War..."

......

The post was receiving hundreds of replies per minute and was quickly featured and pinned by the moderator.

This speed is simply amazing!

It's important to know that "Extreme House" isn't a place anyone can log into; only martial artists and staff of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy are qualified to log in.

..........

"Bon Voyage."

Zhuge Tao patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder, his eyes full of expectation.

"Once you get to training camp, do your best and bring glory to our Jiangnan Base City!"

"I will."

Jiang Ming nodded and followed Inspector Wang up the gangway.

The cabin interior is more spacious than I expected, with a silver-white color scheme, streamlined design, and genuine leather seats that automatically conform to the body shape when you sit on them.

Through the circular observation window, you can see the city skyline gradually shrinking outside.

"Hold on tight, takeoff in five minutes."

The driver's voice came through the communicator.

Inspector Wang sat opposite Jiang Ming, his eyes closed as he meditated, his breathing as steady as a mountain.

Jiang Ming leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to regulate his breathing.

Not long after takeoff, information began to appear before Jiang Ming's eyes.

The news that you are about to enter the world's number one training camp, the "Elite Training Camp," is spreading rapidly within the Chinese martial arts community...

Your name and deeds are becoming known to more people; Legendary status in the Jiangnan Base City area +5.

Your name began to spread throughout China, and your past deeds were sought after...

[Legendary Status in the China Region +25]

Jiang Ming was startled.

"What's going on? 25 Legendary Points?"

Jiang Ming was startled by the sudden pop-up notification. He had worked hard to increase his legendary status in the practical assessment, but he had only managed to get 18 points of legendary status.

But at this moment, Jiang Ming did nothing, yet his legendary status surged by 30 points!

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming raised his communication watch and began to browse through it.

Jiang Ming estimates that only the internet could achieve such a rapid rate of dissemination.

As Jiang Ming had expected, he soon found the forum on "Extreme House".

They also figured out the source of these legendary statuses.

Jiang Ming looked at his photo in the post and chuckled.

"Great shot, I didn't even know I could be this handsome."

Jiang Ming replied below the post.

The "Extreme Home" forum requires real-name login, and Jiang Ming's reply exploded like a depth charge.

This immediately boosted the post's popularity even further.

........

When the post went viral, Lin Xiaoyu immediately regretted it; the matter of her secretly taking the photos could be a big deal or a small one.

The post went viral, instantly making Lin Xiaoyu a little uneasy, and she hesitated whether to delete it.

But just as Lin Xiaoyu was hesitating, Jiang Ming's reply made her heart soar.

"Ahhhh, Jiang Ming actually replied to my post! Looks like he's not angry yet!!!"

Lin Xiaoyu was so excited she almost cheered, and her previously anxious heart was no longer worried.

........

The UFO fighter jet flew smoothly above the clouds, with a rolling sea of ​​clouds and a gradually darkening sky outside the window.

Jiang Ming closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, his mind absorbed in the system interface.

"This time I got 30 regional legend points, plus the 2 points I had left before, for a total of 32 regional legend points, enough for me to do 32 gacha pulls."

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Ming began to extract the substance.

When consciousness touched the bottom of the altar, a burst of light instantly appeared.

[Consume 1 point of Regional Legendary Points to perform a draw from the Apprentice-level card pool...]

[Congratulations on obtaining: Concentration Incense x1 (High-grade Mortal Rank; when lit, it can calm the mind and increase cultivation efficiency by 15% for 3 hours)]

[Consumes 1 point of regional legend...]

Congratulations on obtaining: 1 bottle of Body Tempering Pill (High-grade Mortal Rank)

Congratulations on obtaining: Basic Movement Technique Insight Fragment x1

Congratulations on obtaining: Refined Alloy Ingot x1

Congratulations on receiving: 1 box of Healing Ointment (for rapid healing of external wounds and effective for minor internal injuries)

[Congratulations on obtaining: Swift Wind Talisman (One-time use, increases movement speed by 30% for 10 minutes)]

......

Lottery notifications kept refreshing before my eyes, and one item after another turned into streams of light and disappeared into the system space.

After 32 draws, Jiang Ming had become familiar with the output patterns of the apprentice-level card pool. Most of the items were basic cultivation resources, enlightenment fragments, and one-time consumables, with occasional special items like the Gale Talisman.

The final results are summarized as follows:

Eight bottles of Body Tempering Pills (80 pills in total)

6 fragments of basic movement technique insights

7 Refined Alloy Ingots

3 sticks of calming incense

3 boxes of healing ointment

2 Swift Wind Talismans

One bottle of Wind-Riding Pill (temporarily increases reaction speed by 20% for half an hour after ingestion)

One bottle of Bloodrage Pill (temporarily increases strength by 50% for 5 minutes, followed by a period of weakness).

One low-grade Lesser Enlightenment Pill

"A good harvest."

Jiang Ming was fairly satisfied with the results, especially the Lesser Enlightenment Pill, a magical pill that could permanently increase one's comprehension.

Although it was only a low-grade item with limited increase in comprehension, Jiang Ming was still pleasantly surprised to be able to draw such an item from the apprentice-level card pool.
