1321!
No one around the boxing machine on the training ground responded.
Even Jerry, who had just spoken, was still stunned. Everyone around the machine fell into a strange silence.
1321. It was four hundred points higher than Cheng Shui's record.
It was of a completely different world from the scores 0 to 400. With any score above 400, 50 points made a world of difference.
Cheng Shui's boxing power generally varied between 880 and 910 and was also in a bottleneck period. His strength was extremely terrifying and nobody had managed to surpass it for so many years. But someone had surpassed it now and even scored 1321?!
Tang Qing, who had scored 700, had yet to respond.
She had hit with all her strength just now to make a first impression on the people of the manor, so now her wrists and arms were numb.
This was already her limit, so she hadn't tried another punch.
Only those who had tested their full force knew what a terrifying number 1321 was.
"Jer- Jerry..." A man beside Jerry couldn't help but pull on his arm and swallow hard."Who... who hit this..."
Jerry also took a deep breath and continued staring at the machine."With this score, it was probably Boss..."
Other than Cheng Juan, Jerry really couldn't think of anyone else who could make such a nature-defying achievement.
Hearing this, everyone else on the field sighed in relief.
If it was really Cheng Juan, then it wasn't that astonishing.
But the score of 1321... they still couldn't help but look away.

In the training room on the first floor.
Qin Ran finished her blow and blew on her fists.
Beside her, Cheng Juan walked over with his hands in his pocket and raised an eyebrow."1321, not bad."
Cheng Mu and Shi Liming closed their gaping mouths and were speechless.
Not, not bad?
The two men had seen how fierce Qin Ran was. She hadn't used many skills when fighting the mercenaries, so it was unexpectedly reasonable for her to score 1321 on strength.
"1321. This force can even destroy all the wooden tables...." Shi Liming said quietly.
Cheng Mu glanced down at his own body. Although he had already been tortured badly by her, it seemed she had really gone easy on him.
He pursed his lips and said, "Miss Qin, again!"
Shi Liming held a pen and notebook in his hands and recorded Cheng Mu's physical condition.
He wasn't a doctor and had never studied medical sciences before, but he had learned kungfu and had suffered several injuries from wrestling before, so he was considered well-versed in injuries.
Hearing this, he frowned."Brother Cheng Mu, aren't you being too hard on yourself? Why don't you take a break first and fight in the afternoon, or tomorrow? Can you even move now?"
Qin Ran had been vicious just now. Even if he didn't suffer an internal injury, he definitely suffered physical pain.
Shi Liming could tell the extent of Cheng Mu's injury.
"Of course." Cheng Mu raised his arm and took two steps forward to swing a fist."I feel just like in the past, and my body doesn't hurt terribly anymore."
He demonstrated to Shi Liming.
An hour ago, he clearly couldn't lift his arms, but now, he could even turn it around at will...
Shi Liming subconsciously glanced at the pile of medicine on the ground and suddenly realized something.
The origin of these medicines was probably not simple... With this kind of magical medicine, coupled with the constant training of being on the edge of life and death with a ferocious trainer, as long as he wasn't a blockhead, any man could become a master.
Thinking of this, Shi Liming recorded in his notebook and glanced at Cheng Mu. He was really jealous at this moment...
Qin Ran told Cheng Mu to wait, then reached out and took a look at Shi Liming's notebook.
"By the way, Gu Xichi asked me." Qin Ran suddenly remembered something and glanced at Cheng Juan."When are you going to the medical organization?"
Cheng Juan looked down and pondered for a while before replying, "When are you done playing?"
"At least until the next month?" Qin Ran glanced at Cheng Mu. He had a solid foundation, but his potential was still untapped. One month of uninterrupted special training would probably do it for him.
"Then we'll wait, there's no hurry, " Cheng Juan said slowly."You don't have to bother about it, I'll tell him personally."
Qin Ran nodded and continued to beat Cheng Mu.
Cheng Juan stood aside and left after watching Qin Ran happily beat Cheng Mu.

In the past two days, many people had discussed Tang Qing.
She had scored 700+, which was rare and much higher than the usual explosive power of girls.
It should have been the main topic of discussion for everyone, but the sudden score of 1321 had stolen the limelight instead. People from all halls in the manor who received this news went to the nearest training ground to witness the 1321 score on the boxing machine.
Some people even took pictures and posted them.
After an hour.
Shi Liming's EA3 robot finally passed the test and was sent to the meeting room.
Hearing this, Cheng Huo rushed over. There was only one EA3 robot in the package, and he turned it over for half a day but couldn't find a manual or the like inside.
He turned the robot over and didn't dare to act rashly.
Such high-tech things would lock themselves if messed with, so Cheng Huo scratched his head and instructed his men."Get Tang Qing here."
Jerry and the others had long heard of the robot. They followed Tang Qing to witness the legendary first-generation intelligence system.
"This is the EA3?" Tang Qing walked over to Cheng Huo and carefully observed the robot.
EA3 hadn't been fully popularized yet, but the Hacker Alliance already received news that the EA series robots ran on a system that was completely artificial intelligence.
Modern technology had reached its peak. As long as they were well-versed in the computer, nobody wouldn't want an EA robot to study.
The people of the information hall surrounded the EA3 robot all afternoon, but no one dared to act rashly. Cheng Huo sent the news to the President of the Hacker Alliance and tried to contact the insiders of the Yunguang Consortium.
He wanted to ask them, did this intelligence robot come with instructions?
"Do you have the contact information of the insiders of the Yunguang Consortium?" Cheng Huo glanced at Cheng Shui.
Speaking of this, Cheng Huo remembered how the Yunguang Consortium had sent a package to Qin Ran in the morning. He would ask her about it at dinner.
Cheng Shui thought for a moment and shook his head."We don't have any business with Yunguang at all."
Most of the Yunguang Consortium's business was in Asia and they barely extended their reach here. On the other hand, the manor's business was generally in Western countries.
Tang Qing, who had been looking down at the robot, heard this and suddenly looked up, her eyes flashing."I actually know the manager of the Yunguang Consortium. He's in Continent M..."
"You know an insider of the Yunguang Consortium?" Cheng Huo glanced at Tang Qing in surprise. This secret had been hidden deep enough.
Even Cheng Shui and the others gave Tang Qing a few more glances.
"He's my uncle, but we rarely meet and he doesn't mention the internal affairs of the Yunguang Consortium. My uncle is in the IT industry. If you want to see him, I can try inviting him to the manor. But don't be too expectant, I'm not sure if he'll come." Tang Qing smiled.

At dinner in the evening.
Cheng Mu's face was a little swollen as he sat at the dining table.
He ate very quickly and didn't chat much.
"That Tang Qing's boxing strength hit 700 today. She's not bad." Cheng Shui reported to Cheng Juan. The people of the information hall didn't really require high strength as long as their IT skills were passable. Furthermore, men from the law enforcement hall were always sent to protect them, so there were few people like Tang Qing who were skilled in both technology and strength.
When Cheng Mu heard that even Tang Qing had scored 700, he lowered his head and ate faster.
Cheng Juan ate casually and remained silent.
Grabbing a piece of meat, Cheng Huo suddenly remembered something and turned to Qin Ran."Miss Qin, do you know someone from the Yunguang Consortium?"
Qin Ran was eating slowly with her chopsticks. She looked up when she heard this and asked, "Why?"
"Last time, the people from the procurement hall bid for a robot on the aircraft parking ground. The robot came with no manual, so I wanted to contact the Yunguang Consortium and ask them how to use it, " Cheng Huo explained.
They had spent ten million M coins on the robot and they only had one, so Cheng Huo didn't dare to dismantle it irrespective of its parts. He basically treated it like a treasure.
Qin Ran glanced blankly at him.
Her brows were relaxed and she was expressionless, but Cheng Huo felt like she was looking at him like he was stupid.
He froze for a moment and coughed. His young face looked even more apprehensive."Miss Qin?"
"Nothing, get someone to bring the robot over." Qin Ran lowered her head to eat.
Although it was strange for Qin Ran to ask him to get the robot, Cheng Huo didn't ask more. Without finishing his meal, he put down his chopsticks and returned to the information hall to let his men carefully bring EA3 over.
"Miss Qin, it's here. Do you want to look at it yourself?" Cheng Huo glanced at her.
He thought Qin Ran wanted to see the EA3 robot's style.
Qin Ran was about done with her meal. She reached out to wipe the corners of her mouth with a tissue before walking over to the robot.
Cheng Shui also looked over, not knowing what she was about to do.
Only Cheng Juan stared at this scene lazily with one hand on his chin.
"Miss Qin, just look at it first. Once we've found a way to activate EA3, we'll bring it here again..." Cheng Huo introduced the robot to Qin Ran.
Glancing at Cheng Huo, Qin Ran simply said blankly, "EA3 intelligent system, activate."
Cheng Huo said, "It can't be activated..."
But before he finished his sentence, the EA3 robot's eyes and several blue lights on his body lit up. At the same time, a machine voice sounded, "EA3 system is loading..."
