Chapter 29

"Grandpa, as long as you're okay, then there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."

"Drink less tonight, it's too late, just spend the night at Uncle Gu's place."

"Okay."

Chen Qiang nodded, understanding.

After hanging up the phone,

Chen Hao looked at the black ash on the ground.

He went directly to the restroom, found a mop, and cleaned the floor.

After cleaning up,

Chen Hao's brows were tightly locked.

"Must find a way."

He was an ability user now, barely having the power to protect himself.

But his grandfather was an ordinary person!

If he ran into someone from the Scorpion Brigade, wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's den?

Thinking of this, Chen Hao called Tian Wenjing.

"What's up? Why are you calling me so late?"

"Didn't we just part ways not long ago? You wouldn't have fallen for me, would you?"

Listening to Tian Wenjing's words, Chen Hao felt speechless.

"Didn't you want to recruit me before?"

"Yeah, have you thought it through?"

"Yeah."

Chen Hao's words made Tian Wenjing silent for a moment.

After a long while, she said, "Why?"

"I need protection."

"If I'm not mistaken, your organization should have protective measures for the families of members, right?"

Just as Chen Hao finished speaking, Tian Wenjing spoke up.

"Did you run into something?"

"Let me guess."

"It's the Scorpion Brigade, right?"

It must be said that Tian Wenjing was too smart.

"Just tell me if it's possible or not."

Chen Hao asked straight to the point.

"Yes, of course it's possible; I'll bring you to report tomorrow."

"Help you get hired."

"Okay, thank you."

The next day.

Tian Wenjing came to Chen Hao's home as promised.

She drove and brought Chen Hao to a high-rise building.

This high-rise seemed particularly busy, with many people in uniforms coming in and out.

Under Tian Wenjing's guidance,

Chen Hao arrived at a basement.

A strong man, 1.8 meters tall, had been waiting there for a long time.

The strong man was wearing a black tank top and green military trousers.

His whole body was full of explosive muscles, and those bell-like eyes stared fixedly at Chen Hao.

"You're Chen Hao?"

"I am."

"Hello, my name is Shi Jian!"

"I heard from Wenjing that you want to join our organization."

"But you know, our organization doesn't accept just any trash."

"So if you want to join our organization, you must go through our test."

"A test? What test?"

"Fight me."

"Fight you?"

Chen Hao's brows furrowed.

Shi Jian was a Stage Six General Realm expert.

Fighting him, Chen Hao feared he was like an old man eating arsenic—tired of living.

Shi Jian seemed to see through Chen Hao's thoughts.

"Don't worry, I won't attack."

"You just come and hit me."

"Remember, use all your strength."

"Whether you pass or not depends on your performance, kid."

"Okay."

Chen Hao condensed a ball of flame in his right hand.

"【Fire Control】?!"

Shi Jian was slightly stunned.

He hadn't expected Chen Hao to actually possess the Fire Control ability.

Boom!

The scorching flames sprayed toward Shi Jian.

Shi Jian hurriedly raised his arms to block.

Chen Hao discovered that Shi Jian's hands seemed to be wrapped in a layer of phantom image.

Blocking his flames.

"Kid, is that all the skill you have?"

Hearing this, Chen Hao lunged toward Shi Jian.

Launching a fierce attack on Shi Jian.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Chen Hao's fists, under the blessing of 【Strength Enhancement】, hit Shi Jian's body.

He didn't have the feeling of fists hitting flesh; instead, it felt like hitting cotton.

There was a thin film on the surface of Shi Jian's skin that dissipated all of Chen Hao's force.

"Such great strength, is this the 【Strength Enhancement】 ability?"

"This feeling, it should be C-grade 【Strength Enhancement】."

Seeing that 【Strength Enhancement】 was ineffective,

Chen Hao turned his hand into a blade, simultaneously using the 【Strength Enhancement】 and 【Knife Hand】 abilities.

Rip!

The sharp hand-blade cut Shi Jian's film just a little bit.

"Refreshing!"

Shi Jian couldn't help himself for a moment; his right hand turned into a fist and slammed toward Chen Hao.

Chen Hao had nowhere to hide and could only raise his arms to block.

Boom!

Shi Jian's fist slammed into Chen Hao's arms.

Chen Hao felt as if he had been hit by a heavy truck.

His body flew backward quickly. ===== CHAPTER 31 =====
