Lou Cheng was not a reckless person. After getting off the plane, he called "Dragon King" and "Luo Queen" respectively to avoid being caught blind by the club.
After confirmation, the "Dragon King" went to the military base, but the "Luo Queen" was in the office.
Not wanting to wait, Lou Cheng declined Ning Zitong's proposal to send members of the "assistant team" to pick him up, took a taxi to the Dragon Tiger Club, and walked through the door with a smile.
In the astonished look of the security personnel in the guard room, he followed the lines of the dark floor tiles, walked along the wide corridor, and stopped at the elevator door, habitually not registering, and the former also habitually allowed him to come in and out.
Ding dong!
The elevator arrived on the left, the metal doors opened to both sides, and a thin, dark young man with a three-quarter hairdo walked out slowly, clearly Huang Bin from the "Assistant Team".
He was lowering his head and looking through the information in his hand. As soon as he left the car, he suddenly felt something. He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the visitors in front of him who were about to take the elevator.
"Lou, Mr. Lou..." Huang Bin recognized Lou Cheng and was startled. The documents in his hand fell and scattered.
"Long time no see." Lou Cheng chuckled and helped Huang Bin grab the information.
His palm was nothing special, but it seemed to cover the surrounding area, preventing a page of paper from falling to the ground.
"Okay, long time no see..." Huang Bin took the information in a daze.
"Let's talk later." Lou Cheng stepped into the elevator and nodded in greeting.
Huang Bin nodded hurriedly and stared blankly at the metal door closing.
Just when Lou Cheng arrived on the fifth floor, walked through the corridor, and knocked on the door of "Luo Queen" Ning Zitong's office, the news of his sudden appearance in the club had spread through the radio waves.
"What? Lou Cheng is here?" In the "Assistant Team" office, Ouman and others were surprised.
"Has Lou Cheng come to the club?" At the "preparatory group" training ground, the dashing Lu Shaofei looked at the plump and masculine captain Tu Zheng and asked rhetorically.
Tu Zheng frowned slightly and said, "Someone from the assistant team met him."
A year has passed, and he is still stuck at a level close to Waigang, and the pressure on him is getting bigger and bigger.
Many of those who were as famous as him at the time had not yet broken through. Only Gou Wen of the Xuanwu Sect and Meng Liang of Shizhou Island succeeded. Whether it was Zhiren of Daxing Temple, Mingshi of Shangqing Zong, Qingfeng of Shushan Zhai, Wang Xuan of Yanzhao Hall,
Still stuck here, the dragon gate is not so easy to jump over.
"He really wants to return to the professional game..." Yu Wangyuan, a strong but round-faced man, said thoughtfully.
Lu Shaofei said "hmm" and said, "It seems that his sequelae have been resolved."
"With his initial momentum, without this year's delay, he might be at what level he would be now." Sun Jianlin, who looked like a passerby, said with emotion.
Jia Lu, who always had the feeling of watching the drama from the sidelines, rolled her moist eyes and said with a smile: "Anyway, he is back again. I thought it would be those who play in low-level professional competitions who come back first."
Tu Zheng frowned and said with dignity like a captain:
"Now that he is back, he is still our teammate. You should try not to mention his previous injury."
"Also, no matter what he has gone through, I believe his foundation is still there. You, including me, must keep your spirits up and not be compared to him!"
Lu Shaofei, Yu Wangyuan and others, as young high-ranking officials, had a competitive spirit and answered loudly when they heard the words:
"Yes, the slaughter team!"
…………
Dong-dong-dong, Lou Cheng knocked on the door of Ning Zitong's office rhythmically, and heard the clear and translucent voice like spring water:
"Please come in."
When he opened the door and stepped in, he saw Ning Zitong sitting behind a dark red desk. Her hair was let down and casually scattered, and her facial features were beautiful and elegant with a bit of a mixed race.
After taking a deep look at Lou Cheng, Ning Zitong shook his head and smiled:
"The geniuses of your generation are truly worthy of their reputation. No one is left behind..."
Two people jumped over the dragon gate at the age of twenty-three, and two became Waigang at the age of twenty-two. As for the Living Buddha, let alone that - Ren Li only turned twenty-two in July, which is five years younger than Lou Cheng.
Yue looks like, of course, she started practicing martial arts much earlier.
"Well, everyone worked hard." Because Empress Luo not only praised herself, but also praised Peng as a "Taoist priest" and a "Chihuahua", Lou Cheng couldn't be humble and had to say this casually.
Because they returned from Nile late, Peng Leyun and Ren Li were still practicing the Waigang Chapter of their respective sects, which had not yet been officially announced to the public.
Ning Zitong leaned back, outlined his lips and smiled:
"When I first learned about your breakthrough from the Dragon King, I almost thought it took him more than thirty years to finally learn to joke. But, hey, he's getting older and can't keep up with you young ones."
What's even more outrageous is that the kid in front of me has broken through the pass and jumped over the dragon gate by himself without any help from outside!
Without waiting for Lou Cheng to answer, she stood up and said:
"Let's go to the 'core group' to meet our future teammates. As for the contract, let your lawyer negotiate it later. I won't treat you badly."
"Okay." Lou Cheng smiled nonchalantly.
…………
At the "preparatory group" training ground, Yu Wangyuan started doing relaxing exercises and said casually:
"Lou Cheng has returned to the team, should we have another welcoming banquet?"
"No need, isn't this to remind him and stimulate him?" Lu Shaofei shook his head and replied, looking forward to it, "I don't know how far he has recovered. Team Tu, why don't we advance the team practice to tomorrow?"
These words made Jia Lu, Sun Jianlin and others eager to give it a try.
Tu Zheng finished his exercise, held his cell phone, thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let him adapt for a few days."
At this moment, there was a sudden vibration in his palm, and news came in.
Tu Zheng looked down, his expression suddenly changed, and he blurted out:
"Lou Cheng has gone to the 'core group'..."
…………
"He? New teammate?" "Optimus Prime" Long Zhen, who was called out from the individual practice field by Luo Hou, was startled when he saw Lou Cheng.
He just heard that a new Wai Gang had joined. He racked his brains and couldn't figure out who it would be. He was full of curiosity and had questions - the number of Wai Gang was limited. Even if they had no friendship with each other, they were familiar with each other. Long Zhen believed that
, if someone really "changes jobs", he will definitely get the news in advance. As for those who have just made a breakthrough, there are only a few, or even none, every year, and no one treats them as treasures.
Not only Long Zhen was surprised, but "Martial Arts Madman" Guo Jie was also shocked. If Lou Cheng continued his momentum from a year ago and said that he had broken through Waigang now, he would believe it, but he had been seriously injured for a year and suffered from the sequelae for a long time.
Why did you suddenly jump over the dragon gate?
Next to her, team member and coach Lu Yan's eyes flashed, and he looked at Lou Cheng with a hint of astonishment, half-believing and half-suspicious.
He is just middle-aged, but his hair is half white, and his facial features are handsome and deep. But just by looking at his face, you can detect his unruly nature. Once, because of the extraordinary treatment given to Lou Cheng by the Dragon King, he always had a crush on this current man.
The genius shunned him.
Ning Zitong was very satisfied with the current results and said with a sweet smile:
"He broke through at the Nile in early August."
After speaking concisely and concisely, she looked at Lou Cheng, raised her chin and made a gesture.
Lou Cheng smiled slightly, took half a step forward, relaxed his mind, and highlighted the connection. The surrounding area suddenly darkened, a chill grew on its own, soaking into the bones, while little bits of fire appeared one after another, each warming the surrounding area.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yan, Long Zhen and Guo Jie no longer had any doubts, but fell into their own emotions and were speechless for a while.
"Amazing, amazing! It's really amazing to be able to break through after a year of serious injuries and delays!" Long Zhen was the first to give a thumbs up, "I have the Dragon King in front of me and followers behind me. If I want to sit on the top spot in the club, I don't have to
It’s easy!”
He never ignores the real achievements of others and will sincerely admire them, but he will never admit defeat and will not let others easily surpass him.
Without this year of serious injuries and delays, it might have taken me another two or three years, or four or five years before I could break through, or I might never even be able to break through... Lou Cheng thought calmly.
Guo Jie's eyebrows relaxed, she nodded and said:
"Let's discuss it later."
He is indeed a "martial arts idiot"... Lou Cheng chuckled secretly.
Lu Yan maintained his dignity, nodded to him and said:
"I did underestimate you at the beginning. Now that you have jumped over the dragon gate, you are a well-deserved member of the 'core group'."
At this time, Ning Zitong turned his wrist and looked at his watch: "Okay, I'll take him to meet the reporters. He should be here by now."
Lou Cheng got off the plane and after making the call, she ordered the foreign affairs team to contact the media in Huacheng.
…………
In the large conference room of the Longhu Club, the foreign affairs team has completed the arrangements for the press conference.
"Is it related to Lou Cheng?" a reporter asked his colleagues sideways.
The woman with maroon hair nodded and said, "That's what I heard."
"Lou Cheng previously claimed that he would be able to return to the ring in four to five months. It was early April at that time, and it is almost the same now. Has he joined the Dragon Tiger Club again?" the reporter who first asked the question guessed.
He wears narrow-rimmed glasses and is very fashionable.
"The word 'again' is used well!" Another journalist with a literary bent said with a smile, "Lou Cheng is recreating Feng Fu!"
The idiom means to return to old business.
"It's a pity that after wasting this year, Lou Cheng has fallen behind among the geniuses of the world..." the female reporter with maroon hair sighed.
At this moment, Ning Zitong and Lou Cheng came in from the door of the conference room and sat behind the press table.
"Hey, that's not enough attention. There is only Luo Hou." The reporter with narrow-rimmed glasses was keenly aware of the abnormality.
The artistic reporter nodded in agreement: "Indeed... Lou Cheng hasn't changed much, he's just a little more restrained."
At this time, Lou Cheng had put on the navy blue Dragon Tiger Club martial arts uniform. He was calm and masculine, without any trace of student spirit.
Ning Zitong raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and said with a smile:
"I am the only one accompanying Lou Cheng this time because he no longer needs Wai Gang's support and support. He is already qualified enough to sit here."
With clicks and clicks and flashes of light, the reporters quickly recorded Luo Hou's words, but they had not yet tasted the true meaning contained in them.
Ning Zitong cleared his throat and said:
"I will announce something now."
"Lou Cheng rejoined the Dragon Tiger Club and officially entered the 'core group'!"
Sure enough, it was back to Longhu... The reporters were stunned at first and took notes. Then they realized that there was something wrong with those words. They suddenly raised their heads and shifted their focus back and forth on Ning Zitong and Lou Cheng.
Core group?
Official member of the core group of Dragon Tiger Club?
