I Truly Have Average Talents - Chapter 18

In the training base…

At this moment, a few people were sitting in Wu Chuanjiang’s office and conversing.

Wu Chuanjiang was leisurely leaning on the sofa. He squinted his eyes and said to someone opposite him, “Old Liu, why are you here instead of being a proper principal?”

“The students of Ping An High School are here for training. Can’t I come and take a look?”

It was Liu Guoqiang, who had not appeared at school for a long time.

“Oh, is that so? There’s a student in that poor hometown that’s worthy of your attention?” Wu Chuanjiang did not seem to believe it.

“Reporting to the Commander.”

At that moment, there was a knock on the door. It was the muscular man in the Federal uniform.

“Come in.”

“Reporting to the Commander, these are the materials you requested previously. It has been sorted out. There are ten extreme quasi-martial artists and one suspected quasi-martial artist. There are a total of 11 people.”

“Alright, thank you for your hard work. You may leave now.” Wu Chuanjiang picked up the document and started reading it, not caring that Liu Guoqiang was beside him.

“Yes.”

The materials contained detailed information about each student. Information from their identities to their family backgrounds had been thoroughly investigated. Even the cultivation techniques and physical attributes they had learned were recorded.

Wu Chuanjiang looked through the pages carefully until he reached the last page.

The following words were written: “Liu Chuan (Ping An High School) is suspected to be an extreme quasi-martial artist.”

“He had a conflict with Xiong Zhuoxing, who was ranked tenth, and defeated him.”

“He has awakened his summoning ability and can summon a wolf-type creature.”

“Overall Evaluation: Rank-S.”

“Ping An High School, huh.” Wu Chuanjiang was also slightly stunned when he saw the words Ping An High School. They actually had quite a good seedling.

Although Liu Guoqiang had no intention of peeking, Wu Chuanjiang was not on guard against him. Thus, with Liu Guoqiang’s eyesight, he could clearly see this document.

Actually, Liu Guoqiang was a little surprised as well. He had randomly come up with an excuse just now.

In the end, he saw Liu Chuan’s information.

This kid actually already had such strength? His improvement was really fast, and he was almost catching up to the current Wang Meng. It looked like the Returning to One technique was quite compatible with Liu Chuan.

“Tell me your purpose for coming here. I don’t believe that Liu Chuan’s presence is sufficient for you to come all the way here.” Although Wu Chuanjiang had seen Liu Chuan’s information, he still didn’t believe that Liu Guoqiang would specially look for him for the sake of a student. Did he want Wu Chuanjiang to open a backdoor for his student? That would be completely meaningless.

“I need something from you.”

“What is it?”

“Someone has mastered the Human Emperor’s Art. You should know what I’m here for.”

…

…

Meanwhile, Liu Chuan and his team were advancing with the high-tech map.

“Begin navigation.”

“The road ahead is rugged and difficult to traverse. Please be careful and take your time. The estimated travel time is 15 minutes.”

“Walk forward and turn left.”

…

Liu Chuan and company were shocked. This map was too awesome. Was this the world of the rich?

There was actually such a detailed map in the wilderness. This was definitely a customized map.

Liu Chuan and Monkey looked at Wu Zhixin with complicated expressions. Was this the legendary local tycoon?

“Why are you looking at me? Let’s go. It’s getting dark.” Wu Zhixin looked at Liu Chuan and Monkey with a puzzled expression. Why were they looking at her for no reason?

At this moment, even a fool would know that Wu Zhixin’s identity was not ordinary. After all, whose bag was filled with an endless supply of food?

No one else knew where they were going for the training, but Wu Zhixin actually had such a special map. If one said that her identity was ordinary, who would believe them?

“Up ahead, there’s a cave on the left that is suitable for resting.”

Liu Chuan was speechless.

This form of cheating was a little obvious.

However, it was already late. Thus, Liu Chuan was prepared to bring them to the cave to rest.

To be safe, Liu Chuan still summoned Dogshit to go into the cave and check. After a moment, Liu Guoqiang jumped out of the cave and howled at Liu Chuan.

Dogshit was saying, “The cave is safe and there are no mutated beasts, Everyone, please come in.”

Upon seeing everyone looking at him in confusion, Liu Chuan knew that everyone wanted him to translate what Dogshit was saying.

Liu Chuan could only say, “It means that there is no danger inside and it wants us to enter.”

“Brother Chuan, how impressive. I didn’t expect you to know beast language.” Monkey gave him a thumbs up after saying this.

The corners of Liu Chuan’s mouth twitched. Just as he was about to explain that he did not understand beast language, he realized that Monkey had already walked forward quickly and arrived in front of the cave.

“What do I know about beast language? I simply relied on the connection between master and servant, right?” Liu Chuan thought to himself.

Seeing that the others had already reached the cave, he did not explain further and just took it that he knew beast language.

As he followed the others to the cave, he saw that the mouth of the cave was overgrown with green moss and some thatch. On the top of the five-foot-tall cave, a large cluster of dead tree branches and vines drooped down to cover the entrance of the cave.

“I’ll go in first.”

Although Dogshit had already gone in to take a look, Liu Chuan saw that the mouth of the cave wasn’t very big. Thus, he was prepared to go in and take a look.

Everyone was very assured of Liu Chuan’s strength, so they nodded in agreement.

Liu Chuan held the flashlight that Wu Zhixin had just passed to him. He pushed aside the dead branches and vines before bending down to walk into the cave entrance. Then, Liu Chuan immediately felt a gust of cold air blowing against his face.

“There’s wind. Is this cave connected to another place?”

After entering, he realized that although the entrance of the cave was only about five feet tall, which was about 170 centimeters. However, there was actually another world inside. The space inside the cave was especially large.

Then, he took a closer look. There were indeed no mutated beasts or auras that indicated that mutated beasts had lived here before. He shone his flashlight around and found stone walls everywhere. Except for some moss growing between the cracks of the stone walls, there was nothing else.

“Come in, it’s safe inside.” Liu Chuan came to the entrance of the cave and said to the people outside.

With that said, the others walked in.

It was getting late, so they decided to rest in the cave tonight.

Wu Zhixin started digging around in her bag…

“Let’s eat noodles with fried bean sauce tonight. Monkey, you boil the water. We can eat after you cook the noodles.” Saying that, Wu Zhixin took out another big pot, an energy stove, and some food.

The others were already used to it. For the past ten days, Wu Zhixin had been able to dig out new things every day.

Monkey was already used to boiling water too. It was Monkey who did the boiling every time.

Meanwhile, Wu Zhixin and Lin Sisi were in charge of chatting. Of course, Lin Sisi was in charge of listening, while Wu Zhixin was in charge of talking.

As for Liu Chuan, he was in charge of cultivating. After all, he was always at the forefront when there were dangers along the way.

As a result, Liu Chuan’s appearance of seizing the moment to cultivate didn’t make the others feel any displeasure. Instead, they felt even more at ease.

After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Liu Chuan continued to temper his body and cultivate as usual. His progress also became faster and faster. Due to the fact that he could not use up all his vitality, he could temper his body for as long as he wanted every day.

Ordinary people usually spent between two months and100 days on body tempering. Meanwhile, Liu Chuan could complete body tempering within two weeks and enter the quasi-martial artist realm. If other cultivators saw this speed, they would be so angry they would spit out a mouthful of blood.

After a long time, Liu Chuan let out a breath of turbid air as the sounds produced by the muscles and bones in his body stopped. He had completed another round of body tempering cultivation.

Then, he looked around at his surroundings and saw that everyone else was cultivating in peace. Just as he was about to close his eyes and continue, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

What was that black shadow in the depths of the cave? Why hadn’t he discovered it earlier?

It seemed to be moving.
