In the morning, Liu Fang and Hang Cong was walking to school while browsing the web.There was news of Midnight Walker"s death. Also, there"s another news that caught their attention.
They were on the news!
The article read as "Two Vigilantes: The Black Fox and The Phantom Raven"
They then read through and their lips crept upwards. They were laughing inwardly.
"Do you see this?" Liu Fang said while laughing.
"Yes, yes!" Hang Cong said while also laughing.
...
At night, Huang Chen and Liu Fang were given new gear as their rewards.
This time, it was a cube that looks extremely futuristic.
"That is a piece of Origin Technology that serves as a piece of armor. It is made using nanites." Huang Chen explained as he controlled the nanites.
"This is called the Nanite Cuboid Armor, which can be easily manipulated into different types of armor. It is also made of Jarganium, but with higher concentrations." Huang Chen then formed a light futuristic looking armor using the nanites.
"It absorbs damage and World Essence alike to enhance your strength. It"s a type of Origin Armor and is one of the best ones for non-cultivators like you." Huang Chen then threw two pieces of Nanite Cuboid Armor into their hands.
"It can be controlled through this." Huang Chen then threw a forehead headband-looking thing but looks futuristic. "That cube is composed of millions of microscopic nanites and is almost indestructible in the Transcension Tier. Here"s another one."
All in all, Liu Fang got a new pair of guns that upgrades his already devastating enough Dark Destroyers, but this time it was a sniper rifle. It was the Dark Hunter series, one of the most powerful sniper rifles in the production of SOW and can kill an S+ Rank Demon Beast instantly at full power.
Liu Fang also got new gauntlets called Master Utility Gauntlets. They have five functions, First: shoots grappling hooks in each gauntlet. Second Function: shoots out silent projectiles of three different types: Neutralizer, Instakill and Immobilizer. Third Function: Both gauntlets can function as a Holographic Device. Fourth Function: They enhance punching strength by 10 times. Fifth function: Can form a Hexagonal Force Shield, which can withstand ten full-on attacks from an Early Threshold Palace Tier cultivator.
Hang Cong"s rewards were also on par with Liu Fang"s rewards. He also had gauntlets, but is called the Master a.s.sa.s.sin Gauntlets, which also has five functions, grappling hook, hidden knife with three modes (Heat, Poison, and Regular), claws, shoot projectiles with three types of projectiles as well (Same as Liu Fang"s) and both can also function as a Holographic Device.
He also gained new boots which allows him to run on water, on air and on walls. Lastly, his knives and the system that pulls it was upgraded. His knives are now made from the tooth of an Earth Burrowing Wyrm, which is an S+ Demon Beast. The pulling system"s wires are also now made out of higher concentration of Jarganium, like their Nanite Cuboid Armors and can now carry much more voltages when shocking opponents.
They were excited to immediately try their new gear out but controlled it as they returned to train.
After training they then once again patrolled the night, but with their Nanite Cuboid Armor instead of their original armor.
Hang Cong tried his boots and ran in the air, as for Liu Fang, he imitated spider-man and was using his grappling hooks to patrol the city, of course, while using his OIC, so as to not get detected.
After that there were nothing special that happened in Main City 19 and one and half a month quickly pa.s.sed by.
...
April 2, NA 1000.
"Okay, try out your physical and mental abilities." Huang Chen said.
Liu Fang and Hang Cong then went into the Testing Chambers door (TC) on the 75th mark of floor CTF.

...
After testing their PMAS, Huang Chen checked it. He checked Hang Cong"s PMAS first and nodded in approval. He knew that Hang Cong had exceptional talent to be a non-cultivator and already have a combat prowess of an average 2nd Stage Transcension Tier cultivator.
But when he looked at Liu Fang, an unknown feeling flooded him. When he saw his combat prowess, Huang Chen was extremely surprised, and when he saw Liu Fang"s observational skills, his jaw dropped. With his ability on, he has an observational skill points of 1080! That was the equivalent of an observational skills of a Peak Threshold Transcension Tier cultivator!
"Liu Fang, try the Observational Skill test again." Huang Chen said and thought that there was only a bug on the testing machines (1).
Liu Fang was confused but still did as his master told him.
When Liu Fang got outside, Huang Chen looked at his PMAS again. What surprised him is that his Observational Skills did not drop, and stayed the exact same!
"What a monster!" Huang Chen looked at Liu Fang with envy and admiration. But of course, Liu Fang can"t still beat Huang Chen at his level.
"Okay, your PMAS are already acceptable and are all at the yellow level. You can now go cultivate." Huang Chen regained his bearings and said to the two of his disciples without showing them their PMAS.
When Hang Cong and Liu Fang heard this they were excited!

Testing Machines used:
Strength Measuring Slab (Reread chapter 1 if you don"t know).
Speed Measuring Treadmills: The same as a Strength Measuring Slab but in the form of a treadmill and measures speed. Speed is measured in kilometers per hour, colors are the same as the Strength Measuring Slab.
Toughness Measuring Hammer: An automatic hammer that slams into the user"s abdomen to measure their toughness. When the hammer makes impact, the user will not feel anything. Toughness is measured by points only and colors are the same as the Strength Measuring Slab.
Dream Simulation Observational Orb: An orb that is touched and sends the user into a dream where they test their own observational skills. Colors are the same as the Strength Measuring Slab.
Combat Simulation Headphones: The same as modern VR headsets, but puts the user into an immovable state and transports them into an actual virtual world. In the virtual world, the machine will test the user"s decision making skills in combat. Also the same machine that tests Mental Reflexes and Overall Combat Ability. Measured in points and colors are the same as the Strength Measuring Slab.
Environmental Adaptation Chamber: A chamber that is mainly used for training and testing one"s own adaptation to different environmental conditions. There are five levels each color (Colors are also the same as the Strength Measuring Slab), Weak, Mediocre, High, Perfection and Absolute. The higher the grade, the larger the survival chance of the user in surviving in different environmental conditions.
