Chapter 284
It emphasizes burst and output technique.
Generally, in duels between professionals
or when clearing some high-difficulty dungeons, people look at this post.
The two leaderboards are divided into several profession change stages.
The first-turn stage, because there aren't many people
and it belongs to the newcomer stage where the professional system hasn't taken shape,
doesn't have a leaderboard.
20 to 40 levels, second-turn leaderboard.
40 to 60 levels, third-turn leaderboard.
60 to 80 levels, fourth-turn leaderboard.
80 to 100 levels, fifth-turn leaderboard.
Li Yao opens the second-turn leaderboard.
Apart from a special reminder, it is a simple numerical ranking.
Some people choose to hide, while others choose to make it public.
The top three didn't choose to hide, and they are all girls!
NO. 1: Xue Xue Jiulan (Level 37): Damage 4934/sec;
NO. 2: Qin Qin Xuejun (Level 29): Damage 4683/sec;
NO. 3: Gu Qingcheng (Level 34): Damage 3907/sec.
This Gu Qingcheng, Senior Sister Gu,
Li Yao has some impression of.
Among the captain-level students, she is one of the only two girls,
and the president of the 【Red Moon】 guild, one of the five major guilds.
It can be seen
that they don't care too much about the ranking.
The second-turn leaderboard can be attempted at any time before the Level 40 profession change.
That girl Qin Qin Xuejun made the list at Level 29,
so it was probably just something she did while training.
Li Yao continues to look down,
roughly understanding the output capability of second-turn professionals.
Later, when facing multiple enemies,
he can have a bottom line in his heart.
"Hmm?"
Li Yao suddenly notices
a special reminder next to the leaderboard.
Does it actually have his name?
Li Yao looks over,
and three black lines immediately appear on his forehead.
He finally understands
why the young lady at the counter earlier
said
the martial arts arena had a small 'restriction' for him.
【Special Reminder: Small business, please be understanding, Student Li Yao!】
The key is
there is a line of very small text below:
【All leaderboards in the Red Moon Martial Arts Arena are not effective for Student Li Yao! Doge head save life gif】
【Qingcheng expresses deep apologies for this; all facility expenses for Student Li Yao are waived, thank you for your cooperation! Doge head save life gif】
Li Yao walks out of the training room
and picks up his communicator to call Xiao Hei.
"Captain Li Yao," a voice comes from the other side.
"Have you received the Spirit-Communication Stone?" Li Yao asks.
"Not yet."
"The drop rate of the Spirit-Communication Stone is very low, and there aren't many students with the strength to clear the Purgatory-level Lookout Tower."
"Once a week, I estimate it will take about a month to get one,"
Xiao Hei analyzes.
"However, I have already released the news, so there should be news soon!"
"Is Captain Li Yao in a hurry to use it? Do you need me to increase the stakes?"
Li Yao: "You can increase it appropriately."
"Okay, I understand."
Hanging up the communicator,
Li Yao frowns slightly.
It seems the drop rate of the Spirit-Communication Stone is even lower than he imagined.
After Xiao Hei's publicity over these days,
at Some Jingyu Academy,
almost all capable students have gone to clear the Lookout Tower,
but it still hasn't dropped.
The Lookout Tower is a special dungeon,
and the dungeon cooldown cannot be refreshed.
Over the past ten days or so, Li Yao has also cleared it once.
It is a tower-defense dungeon,
and its difficulty is slightly lower than a general Purgatory-level one.
It doesn't drop equipment, nor does it give experience;
the rewards are some monster materials
used for refining equipment.
The Spirit-Communication Stone is a rare drop,
so it's normal that it didn't drop.
"Forget it, this isn't something I can be anxious about."
Li Yao shakes his head.
"As long as I can get one or two before the Border Trial to help Gainyatt learn the skill, that's enough."
Li Yao is just about to return to the training room,
but thinks for a moment and decides to wait a while longer.
Gainyatt is still inside outputting damage like crazy,
and the temperature in the entire training room is frighteningly high.
There's no need to go in and suffer.
Just then,
the communicator suddenly vibrates.
Li Yao takes it out and looks:
"Dad?"
He answers the call.
Li Yang's boisterous voice rings out: "I heard you're collecting Spirit-Communication Stones?"
"Yes," Li Yao responds.
Xiao Hei made the acquisition information public, so it's normal for his dad to know.
"Alright, your mom collected one for you, and Xiao Na also had a merchant get one for you."
"Two in total, I'll send them to your school in a while."
"Which dormitory was it again?"
Hearing this, Li Yao is slightly surprised.
Something that even the massive Some Jingyu Academy couldn't drop, his mom actually managed to get one?
The merchant is one thing;
as the richest family in Qinghai City, they might have a few in stock.
But since when
did the Silver Wolf Guild have such great power?
"Dormitory No. 1," Li Yao asks, "Where did Mom collect it from?"
"Dormitory No. 1? Some Jingyu is treating you pretty well, kid?" Li Yang laughs, "The Spirit-Communication Stone wasn't collected."
"After your mom and I released the news, it was sent to us by an old-established guild in Sangyu City."
"We discussed it and accepted it; it counts as protection money."
Li Yao: "???"
"No,"
"Oh, don't overthink it," Li Yang interrupts with a laugh, "Your mom and I wouldn't bully people. Their guild members want to clear the Life-Breath Pool, so naturally, they have to pay, and we just deduct it from that part."
"You don't know how much profit that Life-Breath Pool you brought back has brought us!" As he speaks, Li Yang seems to get excited.
"How about it, do you want me to send you a few hundred million Dragon coins to spend?"
Li Yao: "Is profit just money?"
Li Yang knows his son is asking about serious matters and says earnestly:
"Of course not. Money is just the foundation, a string of numbers. The most important thing is professional resources."
"Relying on these resources, we've traded for a lot of top-tier equipment and skills, and absorbed many fourth-turn professionals. Fifth-turn professionals also wanted to come, but your mom and I didn't agree."
"After all, your mom and I are only fourth-turn; if the level is too high, we can't suppress them."
"Hmm, you guys handle it."
Li Yang continues: "Silver Wolf is now a B-grade guild. In terms of strength, it's enough to reach A-grade, but we need to clear more dungeons to get guild points. Your mom calculated that it will take about three months."
"Mom, Mom... why is it always Mom?" Li Yao raises an eyebrow.
He seriously suspects
that his bad habit of being a hands-off manager
was caught from his dad.
"Hehe!" Li Yang laughs guiltily, "As for me, I'm naturally clearing dungeons every day, opening up new territory for the guild!"
"Alright, I have things to do, hanging up."
Li Yao looks at the disconnected communicator in silence.
A few seconds later,
a smile appears on his face again.
It sounds like
the Silver Wolf Guild can be considered officially developed.
The Life-Breath Pool solves the problem of insufficient foundation,
and there are merchants and teachers protecting the path.
As long as they keep moving forward, they can keep developing.
In the Dragon Kingdom, there are almost no bottlenecks.
Now, even for a prop like the Spirit-Communication Stone,
as long as he puts the word out,
other guilds will send it over.
Development should be good!
Thinking of this,
Li Yao chuckles.
The 'lofty aspirations' he made at the trading society
can be considered initially fulfilled.
He opens the door
and walks into the laboratory.
A wave of heat hits his face.
Li Yao quickly lets the Blue Bird out to cool things down.
In an instant,
the room is filled with steam,
and the temperature finally drops.
Li Yao looks at the position of the metal post
and suddenly turns his head.
"No way!"
He looks at Gainyatt.
"Where's the metal post?!"
Gainyatt tilts its head,
Little master, there is more to this chapter, please click the next page to continue reading, it gets even more exciting!
as if to say, how would it know?
Li Yao runs to the console
to check the DPS Gainyatt dealt.
Li Yao's name
has replaced Xue Xue Jiulan's at the top.
NO. 1: Li Yao (Level 36): 【Data Error】/sec
So high?
No,
it's even more than that!
The metal post was burned away,
so the damage must have exceeded the limit,
and it wasn't displayed specifically.
"Hmm."
Li Yao looks at the pool of silver liquid left after the metal post melted
and remains silent for a while.
"It should be fine, right?"
"Didn't Senior Sister Gu say that all facility expenses are waived?"
"A metal post is also a facility, right?"
Li Yao goes downstairs to find the young lady at the counter.
Seeing the miserable state of the metal post,
the young lady's heart skips a beat.
Li Yao says sheepishly: "Help me change rooms."
"How much is this? I'll compensate you."
The young lady looks at Li Yao with dull eyes: "Captain Li Yao, you aren't going to destroy another piece of equipment, are you?"
"Not necessarily," Li Yao shakes his head.
