Chapter 80: Imperial Newcomer, This One Is Limitless

~9 min read 1,643 words

When Jiang Chen looked up, he also saw Chu Yao standing not far away.

Chu Yao's arrival was timely, as Jiang Chen had several questions to ask her.

"Do you know which Instances give higher experience?"

Jiang Chen originally thought an Instance's experience depended mainly on its level; the higher the level, the more experience it should give.

However, it now seems that this is not the case.

For example, the Level 17 Mutated Forest Instance and the Level 20 Spider Nest Instance differ by only three levels, yet the experience gap is nearly threefold.

Moreover, once Jiang Chen is familiar with an Instance, his efficiency the next time will be even higher.

Chu Yao replied without surprise: "The Spider Nest Instance is called the Experience Sanctum; among Instances below Level 25, its experience is the highest."

"Experience Sanctum?"

Jiang Chen found this explanation rather interesting.

It is because there are many spiders; although each Small Spider yields little experience, the total adds up to a considerable amount.

Then Chu Yao continued: "But in my view, it isn't that simple; if you don't consider point consumption, the Spider Nest Instance's experience isn't actually high."

"Oh?"

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and understood Chu Yao's point.

The high experience is due to the large number of monsters, but locating and clearing them takes time.

This time Jiang Chen spent 1 hour 32 minutes to clear it; although the experience was abundant, it amounted to three times the experience of the Mutated Forest.

However, when he runs the Mutated Forest, each run only takes 20 minutes, so the time he would spend on the Spider Nest Instance is enough for four runs of the Mutated Forest.

Within the same amount of time, the Experience Value obtained is actually greater.

Then why do others say

the Spider Nest is an Experience Sanctum?

The key lies in points.

Repeatedly running the same Instance continuously consumes points, and for a Basic Dungeon like the Spider Nest, the entry ticket costs only 10 points, but the cooldown clearance requires 40 points.

Therefore, people regard the Spider Nest as an Experience Sanctum.

"Thank you for the explanation."

Jiang Chen sincerely thanked Chu Yao.

Chu Yao shook her head: "You're welcome; you'll understand sooner or later."

She could sense that Jiang Chen didn't seem to care much about points.

Jiang Chen then asked: "Are there any other Instances that are quick to run and give high experience?"

"Instances that are quick to run and give high experience?"

Chu Yao tilted her head and thought for a moment.

Jiang Chen thought such Instances should be few.

Chu Yao, after a moment of thought, had a flash of insight in her eyes: "You can form a team and go to the Large-scale Dungeon in the Tyrant Desert."

In the Dungeon Hall, there are three special types of Instances, including two Large-scale Dungeons and one Super-large Dungeon.

Typically, a Large-scale Dungeon requires a team of 40 to complete, while a Super-large Dungeon needs over a hundred participants.

If the equipment is good enough and the level is high, the required number for a Large-scale Dungeon can be reduced to 30, or even 25.

Thus, a new profession emerged, namely guiding.

Many trainees form teams to guide others in challenging Large-scale Dungeons, helping others level up.

Those being guided do not need to participate in combat themselves; they only need to pay a certain amount of points.

Because Large-scale Dungeons contain many monsters and abundant experience, leveling up inside them is very fast.

Chu Yao continued: "The school fears we might get into danger, so the level requirements for Instances are strictly limited, but Large-scale Dungeons are an exception."

"Tyrant Desert Inst

It is a Level 25 Large-scale Dungeon; you can enter from Level 20, and it can reach up to Level 30, a full ten-level span."

"When you reach Level 20, you can look for a team at the Team Center; after paying points, someone will guide you in leveling up."

"After all, the higher the Instance level, the harder a solo run, and the more dangerous it becomes.

Jiang Chen also understood her goodwill and whispered his thanks.

Chu Yao giggled: "No problem, no problem, I earned the points, you know."

"It's getting late, I'll go back and rest now."

"If you have any questions later, feel free to ask me again."

She used a Teleport Stone to leave the Dungeon Hall.

At that moment it was already dark; Jiang Chen glanced at the time—it was 9 p. m.

After a whole day of combat, he had to admit that he was a bit weary.

Although he had just leveled up, all his attributes had returned to their peak.

Even if there were injuries, they would be healed upon leveling up.

But the mental fatigue from prolonged battles cannot be erased.

One more thing, the Skeleton Warrior(s) in that recent battle were injured.

Although the injuries were minor, full recovery still requires some time.

Jiang Chen looked at the Instance and decided to come back tomorrow.

He activated the Teleport Stone and left the Dungeon Hall.

The university at night was silent, and Jiang Chen walked on the way back to his dormitory.

He never expected that after only two days at the university, so many things had already happened.

I have to say, this kind of life is far more exciting than my high school days.

In high school we learned only basic world knowledge, and most of the knowledge after a Job Change isn't taught; he can't find any extra material either.

Because the school doesn't know what type of profession you'll become after a Job Change.

It's combat

type—whether combat, support, or lifestyle.

So they only teach some basic universal knowledge.

Only after a Job Change to a combat type will one encounter more of the knowledge specific to combat professions.

Support types are the same.

Some support professions such as Prophet, Elf Elder, etc., also have to take part in combat, whereas alchemists or potion masters might never enter an Instance in their whole lives.

The knowledge is strictly stratified.

After a few days, professionals admitted by Shenlong University from everywhere will arrive.

Then the school will schedule unified lectures, and everyone will learn the knowledge that should be taught.

Jiang Chen is not in a hurry right now.

Back in his dorm, he grabbed some food and simply filled his stomach.

Before the Trial set off, Lin Cai'er bought a huge amount of food, and some of it was left here for him.

Summoned four Skeletons and threw them into the Summoning Space.

The number of Skeleton Warriors reached 116.

A moment later, a faint breathing sound rose, and Jiang Chen entered a Meditation State.

In a hidden area of Shenlong University.

The three of them sat opposite each other, drinking.

Hong Jishi smiled: "How about it? I told you this kid wasn't bad."

Li Xueru sat opposite him: "One person did a Solo Run of three rounds of the merfolk Instance, grabbed all three Merfolk Tears this year, gave the Shadow Transformation Nation folk a good smack, trampled a Yinyang Master, and made the Qianlong Xueyuan guys see how pathetic they really are."

"Don't think just because you have a university's training you're impressive; looking down on the National Top Scholar, you finally got a slap in the face this time, huh?"

Li Xueru wore a mischievous grin, glancing at Tie Shang while speaking.

Tie Shang is the dean of Qianlong Xueyuan; his students got slapped, so as dean he naturally wasn't pleased.

He let out a hum and ignored Li Xueru.

Hong

Jishi, chuckling beside him, said: "Actually I shoved him into this Trial to see the kid's ability; he talks so little, he can't even let out a sound for half a day."

Li Xueru took a sip of tea: "What's his talent? Did you ask him clearly?"

"I asked. It's Amplify, but I have no issue with how much Amplify, probably not little."

Li Xueru's gaze turned oddly as he looked over.

Hong Jishi took a sip of tea: "That's someone else's secret; asking isn't good. Did I ever ask about your talent? If someone digs into your talent, would you be happy?"

If anyone probed his own talent, Li Xueru thought he'd flip out.

"Indeed, then I won't ask. The Amplify talent is truly good; it's appeared before."

"If his Skill is strong enough, combined with this talent, the future looks promising."

Hong Jishi smiled: "I also think this kid's future is promising, and his sister Jiang Ruo is now a member of the Dragon Clan Academy, and she's been favored by the old guy, who is training her with full force."

Hiss!

Even the composed Li Xueru sucked in a gasp of cold air.

Being able to enter the Dragon Clan Academy didn't surprise him.

Although everyone there is a Heavenly Pride, it can't be said that every one will become a great figure in the end.

But if one is favored by the old guy…

Then it's a completely different story.

Hong Jishi slapped his thigh, laughing: "You must have been scared stiff; I was scared stiff too."

Li Xueru asked: "Do you know the reason?"

Hong Jishi shook his head: "Being favored by the old guy means there's something extraordinary; you know how high his standards are. A common person, would he even notice them?"

It seems my Human Race will soon again

need two more New Stars.

Li Xueru sipped tea, speaking slowly.

Tie Shang, who had never spoken, suddenly said: "It's a New Star, and also a Lone Wolf."

Jiang Chen talks so little, rarely interacting with others.

He really looks like a Lone Wolf.

"Imperial Newcomer, this child's future is bound to be limitless!"

Hong Jishi sighed.
