Chapter 40: 40, New Combat Skill
“Of course, that’s only if you can truly master a new combat skill within fifteen days.”
The somewhat hoarse voice also carried a hint of laughter, its attitude noticeably better than before.
Lin Qing pondered for a moment and asked, “What if I can do it even faster?”
“It would be the same.”
The somewhat hoarse voice continued, “This is already the highest treatment the headquarters can offer, unless you are in the urban circle, nowhere else in the world could give you a better offer.”
Lin Qing nodded thoughtfully and said, “Alright, I understand. Then I will prove it using the ‘Speed’ from the Free Body series of combat skills.”
...
He wasn’t particularly worried in his heart.
As long as he could grasp the basics of the combat skill, he could directly advance.
Moreover, he had already trained the ‘Agility’ from the Free Body series to the level where it was integrated into his instincts, and training other techniques from the Free Body series would also grant him good bonuses!
Last time, he barely grasped the basics, but this time he should at least be able to enter that level right?
As long as he could enter, he could advance!
“‘Speed’?”
The slightly hoarse voice said, “This combat skill truly complements ‘Agility’.”
Lin Qing understood this as well, which is why he specifically chose ‘Speed.’
‘Agility’s most significant boost lies in nerve response speed and flexibility, with speed boost being just a secondary effect.
‘Velocity,’ on the other hand, is purely about enhancing speed.
Especially in terms of movement speed, it is far superior to ‘Agility.’
However, ‘Speed’ does not enhance reflexes, if one were to practice ‘Speed’ first, their reactions couldn’t keep up with their body.
Thus, these two combat skills are a perfect match.
“Close your eyes.”
The hoarse voice reminded him.
Lin Qing instantly closed his eyes, emptied his mind in the darkness, and calmly waited.
A moment later.
“Open your eyes.”
Upon opening his eyes, Lin Qing was greeted with a rugged terrain spread out before him, dotted with large and small caves.
Streams of invisible fierce wind were howling out from the cave entrances, the violent air currents sweeping up dust and sand towards the sky, free and rapid, racing between heaven and earth.
Then the view swiftly pulled back, and Lin Qing realized that the background of this scene was the same as what he had seen last time with ‘Agility’, a simplified human body diagram.
As for those numerous caves, could they be the skin’s pores?
Then the scene changed, and the entire background shifted to a single image.
It was a wild wind!
A hurricane almost sweeping through heaven and earth!
Wild and vast, it coiled up thousands of heavy clouds, its presence mighty, obscuring the sun and the sky, as if it wanted to sweep everything into it!
“Boom!”
The howling hurricane suddenly burst forth from the image, sweeping up Lin Qing within it, within the massive hurricane, he felt like a solitary, powerless leaf, trembling unstably, unable to control himself.
At the same time, the mysterious energy inside him also started to stir, seemingly about to evolve a new property.
After a while.
Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes and couldn’t help but look around, saying, “This naked-eye 3D even comes with real airflow?”
“Of course, it makes the Visualization much clearer,” the hoarse voice chuckled low.
“It is quite clear.” Lin Qing nodded his head.

Although he had regained consciousness, the spiritual image of the howling wind was still vividly imprinted in his mind.
“You’re waking up so quickly, your spiritual will is also quite strong, not bad.”
The hoarse voice praised, “This is also one of your advantages. At least when facing those peculiar Telekinesis Awakeners, your spiritual will can also play a significant role.”
“Telekinesis Awakeners?” Lin Qing asked.
The hoarse voice, now much friendlier than before, patiently explained, “You must have heard of the three types of awakenings, right?”
“Yes.”
Lin Qing nodded and said, “Genetic, telekinesis, and Authority, right?”
“Yes, the essence of the Sunrise Training Body Method is actually to increase the probability of genetic awakening, of course… I’m talking about the original version.”
“That hoarse voice said, “Telekinesis awakening is even rarer, and there are almost no training methods. It mainly depends on talent. If one is born with sharp enough spiritual perception, they might awaken just from getting excited.”
Lin Qing’s eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, “Sharp perception? Are you referring to instinct?”
“You could say that.”
The hoarse voice continued, “Those with telekinesis awakening can sense everything around them with their minds even without using their eyes. Even before awakening, they possess strong intuition and perception.”
Lin Qing remembered the sudden intuitions he had during his recent missions and couldn’t help but feel stirred.
He immediately asked, “Is this intuition somewhat unstable? Fluctuating in strength?”
“Unstable?”
The hoarse voice sounded puzzled, “I’m not too sure myself. After all, I’m just a supervisor at the Inspection Supervision Department. I only know the basics.”
“Okay…” Lin Qing sighed lightly.
“Don’t think too much.”
The hoarse voice added, “If you can earn a First-class Merit, you’ll be able to learn three special awakening skills, including the Telekinesis Awakening Method. As long as you truly meet the standards for telekinesis awakening, you can use it to awaken on the spot.”
Lin Qing nodded slightly.
He had heard Coach Tan Yanwen mention this when he was learning the 77-version of the practice method.
But…
A First-class Merit still seemed far-fetched.
In his memory, only Yuan Anping, the General Captain of the City Patrol Bureau, had received a First-class Merit. The captains from other branches, especially those with less experience, might not even have a Second-class Merit.
There was no way around it; the difficulty of achieving a First-class Merit was immense.
Unless he was investigating and clearing out major criminal organizations like the Yuanhong Society, even if he discovered Yuanhong’s Underground Boxing Arena, that would only be a part of Yuanhong’s dark industries and certainly not sufficient for a First-class Merit.
After all, the fugitives from Qinghu Island were so formidable that, theoretically, one of them could easily take down an underground force like the Yuanhong Society alone, and even that was only for a First-class Merit.
This showed the immense challenge of achieving a First-class Merit.
“There’s no other way; one must earn their merits to learn Combat Skills. That’s a strict rule set by Chaoyang Martial Arts Hall.”
The hoarse voice said, “But as long as your combat talent is genuine and you’re willing to work hard, with the training at our Inspection Headquarters, there is hope for you to achieve a First-class Merit in the future.”
Lin Qing nodded slightly.
He suddenly asked, “You mentioned the global Elite Patrol Department just now. What level of ability is needed to join?”
“Once your abilities are sufficient to promote you to Patrol Chief, you’ll qualify.”
The hoarse voice explained, “That means the strength of Yuan Anping, the General Captain at Lin’an City Patrol Headquarters.”
“What exactly does that level entail?” Lin Qing was still unclear.
“Mastering a series of Combat Skills, plus the foundation of the original Chaoyang Training Method,” the hoarse voice replied. “I believe you have the potential.”
Lin Qing suddenly understood.
No wonder his cousin had said that General Captain Yuan Anping and the fugitives from Qinghu Island, such formidable opponents, could defeat her in a single move.
The gap was indeed astoundingly large.
“You can leave now.”
The hoarse voice instructed, “Remember, you must master the new Combat Skill within fifteen days, or you’ll lose this opportunity.”
“Alright.” Lin Qing immediately turned and left.
…
After leaving the chamber where he learned the Combat Skill, Lin Qing had just returned to the second floor and was about to head downstairs when he saw Xiao Peidong coming down from the third floor.
“Lin Qing.”
Xiao Peidong glanced toward the chamber’s direction and smiled, “Were you just learning a Combat Skill?”
“Yes.” Lin Qing nodded.
“Quite good.”
Xiao Peidong smiled, admiringly saying, “I heard it was your first time learning a Combat Skill, and you mastered it in less than a month. That’s really impressive.”
“Just luck,” Lin Qing shook his head and said, “Team Xiao, I have something else to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.”
“Sure, you go ahead.” Xiao Peidong smiled and nodded.
Once Lin Qing had gone downstairs, Xiao’s expression suddenly darkened. He took a deep breath to regain his usual demeanor.
“I can’t wait any longer…”
