Chapter 90: Battle with the Dragon Gate Elder
"He... he is fifth grade? I tried it last time, and he was only seventh grade." Qiu Long was shocked and looked at Tang Wen in disbelief.
"Xiao Tang, there's no need to hide your skills from us. Show them what you have." Qiao Jingtian said.
Tang Wen smiled, and grabbed a glass cup four feet away from him, and the cup was sucked over steadily.
"Release the inner energy and attack from a distance." Suddenly, Qiu Long and Xiao Jinguo were stunned.
"The range of a sixth-grade cultivator who can injure people from a distance is only about three meters, and beyond three meters is the fifth-grade realm. Xiao Tang was able to grab the glass cup from five meters away, so he probably entered the middle stage of the fifth grade, so he is stronger than me." Qiao Jingtian said.
"Xiao Tang, you lied to us so badly." Qiu Long glared at Tang Wen viciously.
"Although I was badly deceived, I was the one who brought Xiao Tang here. I am happy. Hahaha." Xiao Jinguo laughed.
"Do you think I'm unhappy? No matter how strong he is, he is still a member of my Zhanlongmen." Qiu Long said with a smile.
“In fact, I had never entered the fifth rank before, but only reached the sixth rank.
However, one should be low-key. I dare not show off too much, for fear of being used as a guinea pig for research.
However, I recently changed to a heavenly level technique and got some gems, so I’m making rapid progress.” Tang Wen said.
"You have a heavenly-level technique?" Qiu Long suddenly became excited.
"I came here this time to give you the heavenly-level martial arts technique, and this." Tang Wen took out the martial arts technique and spirit stones.
"How did you take it out?" Xiao Jinguo asked in surprise.
"I have a magic weapon, they call it a void bag, which can hold some small items." Tang Wen patted his waist.
"Could it be the legendary Sumeru bag?" Qiu Long asked.
"You can say that." Tang Wen nodded.
"Boy, you have so many treasures." Qiu Long sighed.
“This is a spiritual stone that can be absorbed, refined and stored as internal energy.
Because of its pure texture, it has the same effect as elixir.
However, because it is the purest energy in the world, it has no side effects, and no elixir can compare to it. "Tang Wen distributed the spirit stone to the three people and said, "Hold it tightly and try to exert your power to feel it."
The three of them took it, held it tightly, and began to practice their Qi.
Soon, Qiao Jingtian said, "I feel it, as if pure air is coming in, just like taking medicine."
"Yes, it's good stuff." Qiu Long also nodded.
“These are three void bags, one for each of you. However, the space is not very large, only about one cubic meter.
After you drip blood to recognize the owner, you can move the things inside out and put them back in with your mind, which is convenient and easy to use.
There are still 300 low-grade spirit stones for the team. However, I have a small request. "Tang Wen said.
"You say." Qiao Jingtian nodded seriously.
"I need a thousand bulletproof helmets for practicing. I will give you the three void bags, but the three hundred low-grade spirit stones will be considered as the purchase cost." Tang Wen said.
"We should have made a lot of money." Xiao Jingguo nodded.
"That's true. One spirit stone requires ten taels of gold." Tang Wen said.
"That's three thousand taels, which is more than thirty million Dadong coins. This void bag is probably even more expensive, right?" Qiu Long asked with understanding.
"Indeed, one void bag costs one hundred spirit stones. Heaven-level skills are more expensive, and a set of skills costs several thousand spirit stones." Tang Wen nodded.
"Xiao Tang has made such a great contribution to the country, I believe he is patriotic. The bulletproof helmet is only for defense, I believe in Xiao Tang." Xiao Jinguo said.
"That's true. A bulletproof helmet is not an effective weapon for attack. Moreover, it cannot defend against many high-powered firearms, let alone artillery shells. It can't play much of a role." Qiu Long nodded.
"You guys go wait in the conference room outside for a while. I'll ask my superiors for instructions." Qiao Jingtian said, and the three of them left the office.
An hour later, Qiao Jingtian opened the door and walked in.
“Xiao Tang, we all believe in you, and you are sincere.
So, your request was granted.
However, you have to stay here for a while and train a group of senior teachers for us." Qiao Jingtian said.
"How long?" Tang Wen asked.
"About three months." Qiao Jingtian said.
"I can only stay here for two months because I have other things to do," said Tang Wen.
"Okay!" Qiao Jingtian agreed. Soon, the logistics minister Cui Zhifeng came in.
Tang Wen discovered that the two soldiers behind Minister Cui were holding two sets of brand new camouflage uniforms.
"Comrade Tang Wen, in view of your special abilities and performance, the higher-ups attach great importance to you and have approved your promotion to the position of elder and consultant of Zhanlongmen. Minister Cui, please bring your clothes and ID here." Qiao Jingtian said with a serious face.
Alas, Tang Wen had to accept it even if he didn't want to.
After putting on his clothes, Qiao Jingtian said, "Get ready, the class will start in two days.
The classes offered this time are taught entirely by senior instructors , and there are even a few top-notch instructors.
Including the head coach and deputy head coach of the southern training ground, they all have to receive training."
"Elder Tang, please teach us how to use the void bag now." Qiu Long asked anxiously.
"Don't be in a hurry." Qiao Jingtian said.
"Why are you not busy? I really want to experience it right away." Qiu Long was anxious.
"Comrade Qiu Long, I have also reported the matter of the void bags. The higher-ups mean that all of them must be confiscated. They will be distributed uniformly by the higher-ups. Of course, the higher-ups have approved it and given me one." Qiao Jingtian said.
"Hey, Qiao Tou'er, aren't you too cruel?" Qiu Long was anxious.
"Yes, Boss Qiao, this is a personal item given to us by Xiao Tang." Xiao Jinguo was also annoyed.
"I'm giving it to you as a personal gift. It's a valuable item worth 10 million. Do you dare to accept it?" Qiao Jingtian looked at the two of them with a serious face.
"You never said this before, but today you are serious. It will be fine if you don't report it to your superiors." Qiu Long said.
"This is official business, of course I have to report it. Otherwise, wouldn't I, Qiao Jingtian, be enriching myself?" Qiao Jingtian said.
"Forget it, whatever you say is right. It's just my bad luck." Qiu Long said angrily.
"Deputy Hall Qiu, don't be anxious. Next time if there is any left, I will sell it to you. Then it won't be considered bribery." Tang Wen said with a smile.
"More than 10 million, how can I afford it?" Qiu Long said unhappily.
"Hehe, I can give you a 10% discount. Of course, there will be one for Brother Xiao as well." Tang Wen laughed dryly.
"Qiao Tou, does this count as bribery?" Qiu Long gritted his teeth.
"Not really!" Qiao Jingtian nodded affirmatively.
"I won't bother with you." Qiu Long said .
"Xiao Tang, I'll transfer one million to you and place the order first." Xiao Jinguo immediately took out his mobile phone and was about to transfer the money.
"There's no rush. It won't be too late to give it to you once you get the things." Tang Wen said hurriedly.
"Who said I'm not in a hurry? I'm getting really anxious. I'll transfer one million to you right away ." Qiu Long also took out his mobile phone, and the two of them transferred the money quickly, while Qiao Jingtian pretended not to see it.
"Hehehe, you made two million in one go and got promoted. You treat us to dinner tonight." In a blink of an eye, Qiu Long said with a dry laugh.
"Of course you should. You know, it takes us several years to save one million, and you took it all in one go. We have to pay you a heavy price." Xiao Jinguo also nodded repeatedly.
"Fuck! I've given you two a 10% discount, you should be the ones treating us." Tang Wen said.
“We have no money.”
"I've given you all the money. There's only cloth left in my pocket."
Oh my god...
Faced with these two shameless old thieves, Tang Wen was completely speechless.
"Master Qiao, I'm afraid they won't be convinced if you raise Tang Wen's position so high all of a sudden." After Tang Wen left, Xiao Jinguo said with a little concern.
"This is a good thing." Qiao Jingtian said.
