Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 345 The Third Limit
Chen Chuan could feel that as this heat flow spread, the alienated tissues in his body seemed to break free from the shackles and became active, with a constant flow of vital energy generated from within.

It seemed that this essence was originally hidden in the body and existed in all alienated tissues, but he had never been able to perceive it until this moment when he crossed that boundary and released it for his own use.

With every breath he took, the energy grew stronger, and he could feel it continuously strengthening the areas through which the heat flowed.

At the same time, he also felt that force extending upward from the back of the spine, from the occipital bone, over the top of the skull, and finally sinking into the center of the eyebrows and penetrating inside.

With a bang, it was as if some restrictions were opened. At this moment, just like the moment when he put on the credentials when he first entered the central city, countless lights, shadows and sounds returned to his eyes again.

The difference was that he felt his spirit was constantly rising and seemed to be separated from his body. He saw an infinitely vast vortex appearing in the sky, which seemed to contain many things that could not be seen or distinguished.

All kinds of noisy and indistinguishable sounds and lights surrounded him, as if trying desperately to squeeze into his mind, but he was not affected by them. Instead, he remained calm and remained himself, without any change in his emotions.

This was what Cao Guiqi had reminded him before. After breaking through the third limit using the old method, no matter what strange visions he saw, he should not pay attention to them and should try his best to keep his mind focused.

It seemed like a long time had passed, but in fact only a few breaths had passed. All the noise and disturbance disappeared together, and everything around returned to normal. Only at this moment, a ray of light seemed to flash in the depths of his dark eyes.

He bathed in the dazzling sunlight shining down from above, feeling the abundant power in his body, and realized that at this moment, he had truly entered the third limit.

At this moment, in the arena, the audience was looking at the scene on the giant screen in shock.

In the entire scene, only Chen Chuan was standing there steadily, facing the dazzling sunlight, his collar and hair swaying in the wind at the intersection, and wisps of white mist rising from his body.

Behind him, bright red blood overflowed from a shallow pit and flowed to his feet, as if merging with the shadow behind him.

The display on the giant screen ended with the arrival of the processing bureau and finally froze on this scene. The audience in the venue sighed with both satisfaction and regret.

Although the battle did not last long, only a few minutes, the ferocity, strength and impact shown by the third-level fighter made them feel very excited. At this moment, they were still not satisfied and were all asking who the young man who defeated Wei Wusheng was.

However, Chen Chuan was wearing the uniform of the Processing Bureau, and some people saw his wide-brimmed hat put aside, guessing that he was the expert sent by the Processing Bureau to deal with Wei Wusheng.

Why didn't they send out such a good player before? But it doesn't seem to be a bad thing? Otherwise, wouldn't they be able to see such an exciting battle?
At this moment, the screen above jumped and returned to the stadium. The host's high-pitched and passionate voice reverberated over the venue again. The audience suddenly realized that there was another game here.

However, most people were still immersed in the fierce battle just now and seemed to have no interest in the current game. It was only after the host's hard work that some atmosphere was barely created.

Yu Shen and Huo Yucheng came on the stage in a mediocre atmosphere, but their performance was actually quite good, especially Huo Yucheng, who was not much affected by his surroundings. On the contrary, Yu Shen was a little irritable, but at least he was still above standard.

But no matter how exciting the fight between the two people was, the response from the audience in the venue did not seem to be very enthusiastic. After watching the fight between the third-level fighters, and then looking at the fight between the second-level fighters in front of them, it always felt that something was missing.

The organizers of the competition also discovered this adverse effect, but they had of course considered this beforehand. By providing some drinks with added ingredients later, the emotions of most of the audience could be easily aroused and they would soon return to the previous frenzy atmosphere.

Moreover, during the first game, various companies launched timely advertisements for various combat implants, including some high-end combat implants that were under development.

Many companies later counted that during this period a large number of people came to consult about implant business and asked whether they could rely on high-end implants to achieve the performance level of a third-level fighter.

At the same time, in a secret underground building somewhere, those people were looking at Wei Wusheng who was beaten to death in the light curtain.

One of them felt a little regretful. "Wei Wusheng was still a little short after all. Fortunately, our people on the competition side cooperated very well, allowing most people in the central city to see it. The aggregation and sublimation was close to our requirements. Unfortunately, the time was still too short. It would be better if it was longer."

"Wei Wusheng actually died like this. How come this student was so strong?"

"Wu Yi's... a reserve law enforcement officer from the processing bureau?"

One of them said, "This person seems to meet our requirements better than Wei Wusheng. I suggest we send someone to contact him and see if we can get him to..."

At this moment, the light curtains of several resonance nests in the hall suddenly went out. Not only that, their boundary connections were also interrupted at the same time.

It was not until a moment later that the light curtain lit up again and the world gradually returned to normal.

The leader asked in a deep voice: "What happened just now?"

One of the resonators quickly replied: "We took the initiative to carry out emergency shielding of the field..."

The leader frowned and asked, "What's the reason?"

The person who resonated with him hesitated and said, "We followed your instructions and investigated the student further. We did find something. It seems to be related to... uh..."

"What does it involve?"

"The Bureau of General Affairs..." Everyone present fell silent. After a while, someone asked, "Have the traces been cleared?"

The resonator said hurriedly: "It's cleared. We interrupted the path and blocked the field connection before waiting for confirmation. The other side can't find us."

The leader said decisively: "From now on, when it comes to this student, you only need to pay attention to the surface information and don't investigate further."

In the Changsheng Hall of the Tianshu Gang, veteran Yu Hongming also saw the entire process of Wei Wusheng's death through the light screen of the resonator. Although it was his own disciple who died, his face remained calm throughout, without any unnecessary expression.

Only at the end, he took a deep look at Chen Chuan who was standing there.

He lowered his head and glanced at Guan Chengqi who was standing beside him with his fists clenched tightly. He said, "Kid, don't be so angry. This is the fate of us fighters. We must constantly defeat powerful opponents or be beaten to death by stronger opponents. This is the path Xiao Wu chose himself, and he should bear the consequences himself.

Hatred is useless. You have to figure out whether you are practicing for yourself or for someone else."

He waved his hand, and a servant came up and took Guan Chengqi out. He took two steps and said to a disciple following behind him: "Xiao Guang, go and bring back Xiao Wu's body. Although he is no longer a disciple of the Tianshu Gang, he is still my disciple. Any expenses should be paid from my account."

The disciple said in a deep voice: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter for Senior Brother Wei."

At the intersection, Chen Chuan heard the sound of vehicles approaching in the distance, followed by a series of rapid and sharp brake sounds, and hurried and chaotic footsteps gradually approaching.

Behind those messy and damaged vehicles, members of the processing bureau came out one by one. After arriving here, they all slowed down their pace. Many of them looked at Chen Chuan with eyes full of surprise and admiration.

The captain who led the team came to Chen Chuan and nodded solemnly to him. Then he quickly came to Wei Wusheng's body, looked at the body, bent over to check it, breathed a sigh of relief, put his hand on the fence, and said to the bureau: "Report, Wei Wusheng is dead..."

After waiting for a moment, he glanced at Chen Chuan in the distance and said, "Confirmed!"

Seeing that they had taken over, Chen Chuan did not stay where he was. He nodded to everyone and left. At this time, Ni Qianqian's call came.

Her voice was very bright and she was in a good mood. "Brother Chen, you are amazing! This time you have earned face for me and our bureau. Let those nosy people catch Wei Wusheng and try."

Chen Chuanshuo said, "Didn't you cause any trouble to Sister Ni?"

"What kind of trouble can it be? They can't even praise you right now," Ni Qianqian snorted, "You don't know, in just a short while, several old guys from above have contacted me and asked me to communicate with you more."

Chen Chuancheng said sincerely, "It seems that Sister Ni is very popular in the bureau."

Ni Qianqian couldn't help but giggle when she heard this.

Chen Chuan waited calmly. After a while, Ni Qianqian calmed down and said, "By the way, someone from above wants to see you. Brother Chen, please take some time to come to the bureau to deal with it. Well, focus on your own affairs first and don't be disturbed by the outside world. I will help you block the bureau first."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "I do have something to do. Thank you, Sister Ni."

"You're welcome," Ni Qianqian smiled, "It's because I have good relationships with people."

After Chen Chuan finished his call with Ni Qianqian, he walked aside. He first took back the Xuejun Sword and scabbard, put the sword back into the scabbard, and then went to get his clothes.

At this time, he found a man walking towards him, with his coat and hat in his hands. He recognized it as Mr. Bai, the teacher accompanying Wu Yi, who gestured to him: "Student Chen, your things are here."

Chen Chuan took two quick steps forward, took it with his hand, and thanked him politely: "Teacher Bai, thank you."

Teacher Bai smiled and said, "You're welcome." He looked him up and down and said, "You're really excellent. You're not even 20 years old yet? You're already a fighter of the third level. It's very rare to find students like you."

Some students will leave the academy after reaching the third limit and choose to graduate. Student Chen, can the teacher ask you what you personally think? "

Chen Chuan knew that this option was available, but those students usually had been in the academy for several years, and he was not in a hurry now. He had been in the central city for less than a year, and he could enjoy many resources in the school that he could not enjoy outside.

“Students still have a lot to learn,” he said.

Teacher Bai said, "Yes, you seem to have only been in school for half a year. My suggestion is to stay for a while and see how it goes." He said meaningfully, "And there are some things that are only easy to know and acquire in school. It won't take long for you to understand them."
