Chen Fan leaned back in his seat and said calmly, "This has never been a choice. There is only one Sect Master of Luomen, and that is Luo Sheng."
He stood up from his seat. "I've come today to make my intentions clear. I hope you won't bother me anymore."
Dai Wei's expression instantly turned cold. She hadn't expected Chen Fan to outright refuse her!
"Aren't you afraid that he, Luo Sheng, will be utterly defeated?"
Chen Fan showed no fear.
Though that kid still had some youthful impetuosity in front of him, Chen Fan knew he was fully capable of controlling Luomen.
Luo Sheng just needed time.
Chen Fan turned, about to leave, but Dai Wei stepped forward again with a cold face. "You'd better think it over!"
"If you walk out that door, you'll be my enemy, Dai Wei, from now on!"
Chen Fan chuckled, looking at the person before him with a hint of mockery in his eyes. "Do you think I'm afraid?"
Dai Wei was about to say more, but in the next moment, she suddenly turned and returned to the bed.
Her demeanor was no longer frivolous, but serious. "Get out."
At that moment, Chen Fan also felt an unfamiliar, powerful aura approaching. He frowned, his face solemn as he stepped out of Dai Wei's room.
Who was that person just now?
Judging by Dai Wei's demeanor, she seemed very respectful towards him?
The opponent's strength was unfathomable. Chen Fan didn't even feel he could win with 100% certainty if he faced him.
When did Luomen have such a figure?
As Chen Fan walked out, lost in thought, he unexpectedly ran into Chu Feng, who was returning from a mission.
"Mr. Chen?"
Ever since the incident at the Victor Party, Chu Feng's respect for Chen Fan was no less than his respect for Luo Sheng.
"Why are you at Luomen? Are you looking for the young master?"
Chen Fan thought for a moment, then nodded. "Is he here?"
Chu Feng replied, leading Chen Fan towards the backyard. "The young master has been cooped up in the training grounds all day and hasn't come out yet."
Chu Feng brought Chen Fan to the entrance. "I know the young master is anxious about the assessment in half a month, but haste makes waste. If he continues training like this, I'm worried his body won't be able to take it."
"The young master usually listens to you the most. If Mr. Chen is willing to persuade him, I'm sure he'll change."
Chen Fan waved his hand, indicating he had heard Chu Feng's words.
At the same time, he pushed open the door.
Chen Fan immediately saw Luo Sheng, who was on the ring, continuously practicing combat.
His outer garment was already soaked with sweat. Luo Er was his sparring partner.
Chen Fan had heard that Luo Er was the current captain of the Law Enforcement Hall, second only to Cheng Ji in strength.
Fighting him could indeed stimulate Luo Sheng's potential multiple times and help him find an opportunity for a breakthrough, but—
Luo Sheng currently had no power to fight back and looked like he was just taking a beating.
Chen Fan stepped forward, placing his hand on the railing by the edge of the ring. "How long have you been training like this?"
Only then did Luo Sheng notice him.
He seemed surprised to see Chen Fan here. "Brother Fan, why are you here today?"
"A few things."
Chen Fan dodged the main point and then pointed at the bruises on Luo Sheng's body, frowning. "If you continue training like this, by the day of the assessment, you won't achieve a breakthrough. You might even break a few bones."
Luo Sheng frowned. "Brother Fan, but time is tight, I..."
"Come down first."
Luo Sheng was quite obedient to Chen Fan.
He nimbly flipped down and landed beside Chen Fan. "Brother Fan, do you have a solution?"
Ever since he knew of Chen Fan's strength, Luo Sheng had a natural trust in him.
"Tell me about your assessment content first."
Luo Sheng pointed to the boxing testing machine nearby. "Everyone in Luomen will undergo an initial punch force assessment. Based on the punch force, a preliminary evaluation will be made. Those at the bottom can challenge higher ranks. There are no rules in the ring; defeating the opponent is enough."
As Luo Sheng spoke, he led Chen Fan towards the punch force testing machine.
It displayed three data points: "Highest Record," "This Machine's Highest Record," and "Test Value."
The highest record was 1150; this machine's highest record was 880.
Chen Fan had no prior experience with these and didn't understand their meaning.
Luo Er, standing nearby, quickly explained, "The punch force value range for ordinary people is generally between 600-900. This 1150, Luomen's highest record, was set by Cheng Ji. The record has stood for three years, and no one has surpassed it yet."
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow. "Is this level considered incredible?"
Luo Er thought for a moment, then channeled his energy into his fist and smashed it hard onto the sensing pad in the middle.
The testing machine went through a series of wild fluctuations.
After more than ten seconds, it settled: 1065.
Concurrently, this machine's highest record was also updated in real-time.
Luo Er nodded at Chen Fan. "Don't underestimate the difference of just ninety-odd points; it's a chasm that's truly insurmountable."
This result was indeed beyond Chen Fan's expectations.
He hadn't expected such a large gap between first and second place.
It seemed he had underestimated Cheng Ji's abilities.
Chen Fan looked up at Luo Sheng beside him. "You try."
Luo Sheng had been eager to try. He had known about the testing machine before but hadn't taken such things to heart, so he hadn't properly checked his own situation until now.
Luo Sheng took a deep breath. "Since Luo Er said the normal range is 600-900, it's not unreasonable for me to aim for over 800, right?"
Saying this, Luo Sheng adopted a horse stance in front of the testing machine and fiercely punched the sensing pad.
