"When the inner scenery is as solid as a mountain and the will of the true self is as firm as Vajra, with just a thought, you can draw upon the power of the inner scenery, manifesting it outside of yourself..."
Fang Cheng listened carefully to the teachings, nodding thoughtfully.
Wei Zheng listened to the conversation between the two and felt increasingly that this young man before him was unfathomable. He couldn’t help but ask:
"Junior Brother Fang, has your Qigong cultivation already reached the level of ’True Essence Casting Cauldron’?"
Before Fang Cheng could answer, Ma Donghe had already started boasting for him:
"More than that, Brother Wei, let me tell you, Ah Cheng is definitely a martial arts genius that only comes around once in a century. His True Qi is as plentiful and powerful as if it costs nothing!"
Saying this, Ma Donghe rolled his eyes, showing a regretful expression, and let out a deep sigh:
"Ah, Ah Cheng, it would be great if you could join the Special Search Team. We could fight side by side and look out for each other."
Wei Zheng’s eyes lit up instantly and he quickly chimed in:
"Exactly, Junior Brother Fang, you should definitely consider it. Someone as strong as you can only fully realize your value in the Special Search Team."
Fang Cheng didn’t respond directly, instead asking somewhat hesitantly:
"Isn’t the initial test for the Special Search Team already over?"
"The initial test is only for those who are not from a professional background."
Wei Zheng then explained to him in detail:
"Our Special Search Team also has an affiliated Special Police School with a fixed number of enrollment slots each year."
"Donghe and the others passed the initial test to qualify for the official exam, and they will soon participate in the re-exam along with these elite police school students."
"During this period, if some individuals from society have already proven their strength and wish to participate, they can directly join the re-exam with the endorsement of a team affairs officer."
After speaking, he gazed fervently at Fang Cheng with considerable eagerness:
"With your skills, there’s no problem whatsoever, Junior Brother Fang. I’m now officially inviting you to participate in this re-exam as a Second Level Officer of the Special Search Team."
Fang Cheng thought about it and still politely declined for the previous reason:
"Forget it, I enjoy my freedom and can’t stand the constraints of rules and regulations. Fighting isn’t for me." Fınd the newest release on novel{f}ire.net
Ma Donghe chimed in to assist:
"Even if you’re willing to be a guarantor, Ah Cheng’s family situation is quite special. He might not pass the background check..."
Fang Cheng’s voice was not loud, yet it successfully made Ma Donghe close his mouth.
Wei Zheng nodded slightly at these words, a flash of understanding crossing his eyes, and he did not pursue the matter further.
As a seasoned member within the system, he was all too aware of the weight of the term "background check."
He seemed to forget about the previous discussion, continuing to chat and drink tea with everyone, sharing some anecdotes about the Special Search Team.
This also gave Fang Cheng a new understanding of the most mysterious force in the country.
Unnoticed, the sun had sunk toward the west, and it was already dusk.
Wei Zheng looked at the sky and suddenly got up to say goodbye.
Ma Donghe hurriedly tried to keep him:
"Brother Wei, didn’t you say you’d stay at my place for a few days? Why are you leaving so soon?"
Ma Jianguo also encouraged:
"Yes, Xiao Wei, you rarely come by. Stay a couple more days and let Donghe entertain you with a few more drinks."
Wei Zheng smiled: "I just remembered there’s something urgent at home that I must handle, so I have to rush back. I’ll come again to see you in a few days."
Speaking, his gaze lingered on Fang Cheng for a few seconds, looking somewhat complex.
Then he turned and left the room, driving away in his dark green Jeep toward the village entrance.
Inside the living room, Ma Donghe, feeling a bit embarrassed, apologized to Fang Cheng:
"Ah Cheng, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought up your family matters."
Fang Cheng waved his hand, indicating it didn’t bother him.
But unexpectedly, Ma Jianguo spoke up:
"Ah Cheng, about joining the Special Search Team, actually... you should consider it carefully and not worry about how this old man might feel."
