Yueyuan Community in Yangzhou City, early morning, the sun rising.
“Dad, be careful, take it slow,” Luo Feng supported his father, Luo Hongguo, who was walking unsteadily along the path in the community.
“Congressman Luo, good morning.” A young martial artist in the community saw Luo Feng, revealing a trace of admiration, and respectfully greeted him, thinking in amazement: “Congressman Luo is now a being surpassing a War God, equal in status to the presidents and leaders of the five major powers, yet he still personally supports his father.”
On the cobblestone path in the center of the lawn, Luo Feng supported his father.
“Xiaofeng, your status is different now; you don’t need to accompany me personally. Isn’t there specially assigned staff at home to take care of me?” Luo Hongguo lowered his voice, “You see, many old neighbors have secretly told me. Xiaofeng, you’re now a ‘congressman.’ Pay attention to your status.”
“I’m a congressman, you’re the ‘congressman’s father,’ and you’re still older than me.” Luo Feng smiled.
Luo Hongguo couldn’t help but shake his head and smile.
Seeing how difficult it was for his father to walk, Luo Feng felt helpless. Years ago, Li Yao and his parents had targeted his family, and his father had nearly lost his life. Though he narrowly escaped death, his father’s waist and spine were severely injured. Although Luo Feng had managed to obtain some medicine, its effects were limited.
Even now, his father’s legs still lacked strength.
“If I still had that millennium Heiwu root and let Dad take just a bit of it, he might recover completely. Unfortunately, my younger brother sold the ‘millennium Heiwu root’ to someone else.” Luo Feng didn’t blame his brother; if his brother hadn’t exchanged the ‘millennium Heiwu root’ for the eighth shareholder status in the Industrial and Commercial Bank, their family situation might have been even worse.
“Even as a Stellar-Level warrior, obtaining a Spirit Herb is no easy task.” Luo Feng was troubled, recalling his good fortune back then when he had acquired so many Spirit Herbs at once, which allowed him to confidently exchange for the ‘Dark Cloud Shuttle.’
…
At noon.
“Xiaofeng, can we watch the inauguration ceremony for the new Inspector on this channel?” In the living room at home, both of his parents, his younger brother Luo Hua and his girlfriend Zhen Nan, and even Zhen Nan’s parents were present.
“This exclusive channel.”
Luo Feng nodded with a smile, “The inauguration ceremony for the new Inspector will begin its live broadcast at 2 p.m.” Today was the day he would officially assume the role of Inspector, a significant event for the Pangua Martial Arts Academy, and it would be publicly announced! Although this event was described as public, it was essentially only open to high-level officials across nations.
Ordinary martial artists and the general public were largely unaware of the details regarding beings who had surpassed the War God level.
“Mom, Dad, I’m leaving first.”
At the same time, Luo Feng smiled and nodded toward Zhen Nan’s parents, who couldn’t help but feel their hearts race. The young man before them was a being who had surpassed the War God level, whose status was immeasurably higher than the CEOs of the companies where they worked.
…
At exactly 2 p.m. on January 5th, 2059, in the grand conference hall of the Global Pangua Martial Arts Academy headquarters, the Inspector Inauguration Ceremony officially began.
“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Global Pangua Martial Arts Academy Inspector Inauguration Ceremony. Today, those attending this ceremony include… the Grand Master of the Global Pangua Martial Arts Academy, ‘Hong.'” The host on the stage announced loudly, and immediately the cameras focused on ‘Hong,’ who was seated calmly in the central front row.
“Grand Master of the Global Thunder Martial Arts Academy, ‘Leishen.'”
“Third Chairman of the War Palace, ‘Mohanderson.'”
“Fourth Chairman of the War Palace, ‘East.'”
…
Each influential figure sat calmly in their seats, while the three-dimensional virtual projections on stage sequentially displayed the images of each introduced guest.
“And finally, I will introduce the newly appointed Inspector of the Global Pangua Martial Arts Academy, Congressman Luo Feng!” Immediately, the three-dimensional virtual projection on stage displayed Luo Feng’s image.
“This is the first time I’ve remembered so many congressmen’s names,” Luo Feng whispered.
“The Inspector Inauguration Ceremony is a rare important gathering for the congressmen,” Liu He, sitting beside Luo Feng, whispered with a smile. “At such a ceremony, even the two Grand Masters will attend, along with the other three chairmen. Among the many congressmen… unless they have important matters, they will all come.”
Luo Feng nodded.
“Next, we welcome ‘Jiang Nian,’ the instructor from the Yian District Pangua Martial Arts Academy in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Base City, who was also Congressman Luo Feng’s very first instructor.” The host announced, and immediately music began to play. The somewhat nervous Instructor Jiang Nian quickly stood up from his seat at the back of the entire auditorium and hurried to the stage.
Seeing Jiang Nian, Luo Feng was somewhat surprised.
Even Instructor Jiang Nian had been invited?
“Liuhu, what exactly is the process of this ceremony?” Luo Feng quickly asked in a low voice, “Two days ago, Wu Tong, the chief instructor of the martial arts academy in Yangzhou City, and my brothers Chen Gu and Zhang Ke were also invited. Are they going to take the stage today as well?”
“The ceremony will introduce your ‘glorious achievements’ from start to finish,” Liu He whispered with a smile. “Don’t hurry; this is just the beginning! There will also be some musical and dance performances interspersed in between, featuring the most renowned singers and dancers from around the world.”
Indeed—
This so-called ceremony was essentially a retrospective of an Inspector’s ‘past achievements.’
From Luo Feng’s days of diligent training at the academy while living in low-income housing (Jiang Nian took the stage), to his first ‘martial artist practical assessment’ (Wu Tong took the stage), to his first venture into the wilderness with the Hammer Squad (all members of the Hammer Squad took the stage), and entering the elite training camp (his teacher Jiang Fang took the stage)…
All the achievements highlighted were positive.
The entire ceremony portrayed Luo Feng as the image of a ‘perfect genius martial artist.’
“Do you feel a bit great now?” Liu He whispered with a smile.
“A bit. I’m even starting to admire myself,” Luo Feng chuckled.
During the ceremony, various musical and dance performances were interspersed. All the performers were top-tier globally, and each of these masters would express their admiration, respect, or even subtle affection for ‘Congressman Luo’ while on stage. The entire ceremony was planned to last about two hours.
…
The Inspector Inauguration Ceremony was nearing its end.
“Congressman Luo, Congressman Luo,” a voice came from behind his seat.
“Hmm?”
Luo Feng turned in confusion. A gray-haired old man sitting in the back row smiled, “It’s me, Liu Yan.”
“Oh, Elder Liu, what’s going on?”
Luo Feng clearly remembered that when arranging the seating, Liu Yan wasn’t supposed to be sitting behind him… Obviously, someone had switched seats.
“Congressman Luo, do you still remember before you entered the ancient ruins of Site No. 9, you asked us to help find your parents’ relatives?” Liu Yan said.
“Oh, right.”
Luo Feng nodded immediately. His parents’ greatest wish was to find the many relatives and friends who had lost contact during the Great Nirvana. When he first became an inspector, he had asked for help. But it had taken over a year for this news to arrive.
“Did you find anything?” Luo Feng asked eagerly.
“We found a little,” Liu Yan spoke in a low voice, with an apologetic tone. “Due to the establishment of the base cities, many records were lost. It was indeed difficult to search. We spent a lot of effort initially… but then, during the search, you stayed inside Site No. 9’s ancient ruins for a long time, so the work was temporarily suspended. Only recently, after your power significantly increased, were we able to resume the search with greater resources.”
“I understand,” Luo Feng nodded.
Of course, there was no need to expend too much effort for a deceased War God.
But once Luo Feng became a ‘Congressman-level warrior,’ the national special departments immediately mobilized greater forces to search, and the efficiency was much higher.
“I want to know how many of my parents’ cousins and second cousins are still alive,” Luo Feng pressed.
Both of his parents were born after the year 2000.
They were only children, so their relatives and friends naturally included cousins and second cousins.
“We have found two so far,” Liu Yan whispered. “One is your father’s cousin ‘Tang Cheng,’ and the other is your mother’s niece ‘Gong Xinhua.’ The mother of your father’s cousin ‘Tang Cheng’ is also still alive—that is your father’s aunt ‘Luo Hongqin,’ who is also your father’s paternal aunt and thus your own paternal great-aunt, Congressman Luo.”
Luo Feng was stunned.
When he was a child, his parents often mentioned this great-aunt ‘Luo Hongqin’ when talking about their relatives and friends. Great-aunt’s age wasn’t much older than his father ‘Luo Hongguo,’ and she often played with his father and bought him snacks.
He never expected that Great-aunt was still alive.
As for his mother’s niece ‘Gong Xinhua,’ Luo Feng had heard his mother mention her, though his mother didn’t talk about her much.
“We are still searching for the other relatives,” Liu Yan said.
“Thank you,” Luo Feng nodded.
“Later, I will send the information to Congressman Luo,” Liu Yan smiled.
Indeed—
Although many people had died during the Great Nirvana, many of his parents’ relatives had survived; it was impossible for all of them to have perished. Now, two families had indeed been found. His parents would surely be very excited when they heard this.
“Ladies and gentlemen.”
“This is the most important moment of today’s ceremony. Now, let’s welcome Congressman Luo Feng!” The host announced loudly.
Luo Feng immediately stood up, and under the music, walked onto the stage amidst the gaze of people from around the world in the conference hall. The host slightly bowed to Luo Feng and continued, “Next, we will invite our global number one figure, the Grand Master of our Pangua Martial Arts Academy, ‘Hong,’ to personally appoint Mr. Luo Feng as the sixth Inspector of the Pangua Martial Arts Academy.” Immediately, applause erupted from the audience below.
Hong, dressed in black, walked onto the stage.
Hong stood in front of Luo Feng.
“Master,” Luo Feng looked at Hong.
Hong slightly flipped his hand, and a ‘Pangua Inspection Order,’ symbolizing the privileges of the Inspector, appeared out of nowhere in his hand. When Hong looked at Luo Feng carefully, he couldn’t help but be slightly surprised: “Luo Feng, you’ve broken through?”
Under the gaze of many powerful figures below the stage.
Hong and Luo Feng’s surrounding space slightly distorted, completely soundproofing them.
“Not long ago,” Luo Feng answered with a smile.
“Stellar-Level mentalist, flying at a very fast speed. You also have the Dark Cloud Shuttle, so your speed should be even more astonishing. How fast exactly?” Hong’s eyes gleamed.
“Master, what’s ‘Stellar-Level’?” Luo Feng pretended to be curious.
“I’ll tell you later,” Hong asked eagerly, “What’s your current flying speed?”
Luo Feng didn’t hide it: “Over 2400 meters per second.”
“Wow, over 2400 meters per second? Faster than the Fourth Chairman ‘East’! In terms of aerial flying speed, you’re third on Earth. Only slightly slower than me and Thunder God.” Hong nodded slightly, “After this ceremony, you’ll prepare to come with me to the Fog Island. With your current speed, you can definitely protect yourself.”
“Fog Island?” Luo Feng was even more puzzled.
“We’ll talk about it after the ceremony.” With that, Hong handed the ‘Pangua Inspection Order’ in his hand to Luo Feng.
Luo Feng solemnly accepted it!
From this moment on, Luo Feng officially became one of the six Inspectors of the Pangua Martial Arts Academy!
