Chapter 131 Unspoken Rules Of The Training Camp (1/2)
After the first day of familiarization, Lin Huang headed straight to the training tower right after breakfast the next morning. To him, the acc.u.mulation of points nothing as he was not lacking equipment or combat skills. At most, he would need a minimal amount of points to get some food but most importantly, he only had one goal when he entered the training tower - obtaining more Life Power.
The training tower was a giant tower located in the middle of a small foothold. Aside from Scarface's office on the top floor, there was a total of 12 floors with training areas beneath it. The first to third floor contained monsters from iron-level rank-1 to rank-3. The fourth to sixth floor contained monsters from bronze-level rank-1 to rank-3. The seventh to ninth floor contained monsters from silver-level rank-1 to rank-3 while the 10th to 12th floor contained monsters from gold-level rank-1 to rank-3.
Lin Huang got up to the sixth floor using the stairs and looked for a room that was unoccupied. He chose the sixth floor because acc.u.mulating Life Power by killing bronze-level monsters was not much different from killing silver-level monsters. At the same time, Lin Huang could focus on his training as well. With Bai’s ability, he could totally go straight to the ninth or tenth floor but to Lin Huang, the monsters on the ninth and tenth floor would be too strong for him to handle alone and all he would be able to do was watch Bai do all the killing.
There were 300 doors on each floor, each of them leading to a training room. If the training room was occupied, there would be a red light above the entrance. If it was vacant, there would be a green light above the entrance. They would have to scan their ident.i.ty tags before entering. It took Lin Huang awhile to find a door with a green light and he entered it immediately after scanning his ident.i.ty code.
Once he stepped in through the door, he was teleported into the wild. In his field of vision, there were groups of bronze-level rank-3 monsters of all forms. He was stunned.
”Is this real life or virtual reality?” Lin Huang thought but he could not tell at that moment. He had never seen so many monsters at once in any of the wild zones in the safe zones. As he summoned Bai, the Blood Spirit wings sliced the first monster’s head and Life Light was transferred from the monster to his Life Wheel, he realized that this was real life.
”Where is this place?” he wondered. Without a moment's hesitation, Lin Huang and Bai began killing. Partic.i.p.ants would usually stay in the training room for two to three hours as their Life Power would be drained from such intense battles. However, since Lin Huang’s Life Wheel was connected to Bai’s, his Life Power was replenished continuously so he would be able to stay there for extended periods of time - easily up to eight hours.
Lin Huang got out of the training s.p.a.ce at five in the evening. Within eight hours, Bai and himself managed to kill up approximately 1,000 monsters. He leveled up from bronze-level rank-1 to rank-3 and the Life Power had filled up the sixth circle in his Life Wheel. He was close to filling up his Life Wheels. For the next couple of days, he spent most of his time in the training tower. Three days later, the three Life Wheels in his body were all filled up. Lin Huang and Bai managed to kill almost 4,000 bronze-level rank-3 monsters, allowing him to acc.u.mulate more than 160,000 points within three days.
The acc.u.mulated points would reset every 100 days. With the points he had acc.u.mulated, he would be able to rank top 10 on the leaderboard. However, he only managed to make it to No.297 on the leaderboard. He had garnered attention from many for the number of points he managed to acc.u.mulate in such short period of time. Ever since he completely filled up his Life Wheels, he stopped going to the training tower. He stayed in his room to practice his Life Skills as well as stabilize his Life Power. He hardly left his room after that.
His ranking had been dropping during the next couple of days but he did not care at all. On the third day he stopped going to the training tower, he had planned to take a breather outside after breakfast before practicing his Life Skills. However, just when he stepped out of the residential area, he was stopped by a young man with blonde hair.
”Are you Lin Huang?”
”Can I help you?” Lin Huang had no idea who he was.
”I want to challenge you!” the man shouted. Lin Huang thought the man was being absurd.
”Not interested,” Lin Huang said and turned away. He could tell that the man was bronze-level rank-2 and fighting him would be a waste of time.
”I think you meant you don’t have the guts to challenge me?” The man instigated.
”Whatever,” Lin Huang replied. He did not bother and walked towards the residential area.
”If that’s the case, I shall start a deathmatch then,” the man yelled at Lin Huang.
A notification box popped up before Lin Huang from his Emperor’s Heart Ring.
”Li Zihao has requested to carry out a deathmatch with you.”
”Deathmatch will start in 10, 9, 8…”
”What the h.e.l.l?” Lin Huang thought. Could the man be really that ridiculous?
”You forced me to do this. If you accepted my challenge, the most I would get was half of your points. Now that you have forced me to initiate a deathmatch, the only thing I can do is to kill you and take all your points,” the man shouted at Lin Huang while transforming two equipment rings into two short blades.
Lin Huang finally understood what was happening. He was quiet as he took out his bronze-level battle sword. A crowd had surrounded them to watch the show. Once the countdown was over, the man ran towards Lin Huang. He moved amazingly fast and he was before Lin Huang in an instant. His blades were aimed at Lin Huang's throat and his heart. Many cheered for his tactics.
