Chapter 70

"Please choose any base from number 100 to 1000. All base environments and facilities are identical; only the number of people in the base differs, which will not affect battlefield teleportation."

A mechanical, indifferent voice rang out.

"Number 100," Zhao Xing chose one at random.

"Teleportation will begin shortly. After arriving at Base 100, you will automatically possess a place of residence."

Hum~

The next moment, Zhao Xing's figure disappeared from the beginner zone.

From this point on, he could no longer enter the beginner zone base or the beginner battlefield.

He could only remain in the intermediate zone.

Intermediate zone, Base 100.

Zhao Xing's figure appeared inside a spacious hall.

The house and its facilities were no different from the rooms in the beginner zone, only larger, and the room number was different.

"Let me study the rules of the intermediate zone first and watch the battle videos of other intermediate lords."

Zhao Xing didn't immediately teleport into the battlefield.

The intermediate zone battlefield still had some differences from the beginner zone battlefield.

The email sent by Primal City contained detailed explanations.

Sharpening the axe doesn't delay the woodcutting; Zhao Xing naturally had to familiarize himself with it first.

…………

Azure Star, Military Department.

"Junior Brother has entered the intermediate zone," Lieutenant Helian Lie looked at the notification on his light-brain and smiled slightly.

He had set up friend alerts to keep an eye on Zhao Xing's every move.

"In the intermediate zone, alien lords are stronger; some have even lived in the Primal Realm for decades."

"The rules are also different. Earning points from them will be much more difficult," Lieutenant Helian Lie thought to himself.

Even among intermediate lords, there were huge differences between them.

Some alien lords had lived for decades and had rich combat experience.

Meanwhile, the students had only just entered the Primal Realm.

As for the advanced zone?

The difficulty was even greater; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to match higher point rewards.

"Little Junior Brother has great potential. I estimate that after familiarizing himself for a while, he'll be able to adapt."

Lieutenant Helian Lie still had high expectations for Zhao Xing.

………………

In the virtual world, within an independent space, a piece of land floated in the void.

On the land sat a magnificent manor.

Chen Qing lay in the swimming pool, watching various battle videos.

In the virtual world, owning such a large independent manor with luxurious decor required an expensive fee.

But for Chen Qing, this was just pocket change.

Suddenly, her smart light-brain popped up a notification.

The friend she was following, Zhao Xing, had entered the virtual world.

"Hmm? Zhao Xing is online," Chen Qing immediately perked up. "He rarely comes online."

Ever since she added Zhao Xing as a friend, Chen Qing had rarely seen him online in the virtual world.

Without livestreaming battles, his login frequency was even lower.

The vast majority of students would choose to enter the virtual world to relax their minds after experiencing intense battles.

Someone like Zhao Xing, who entered the battlefield twenty or thirty times a day, was actually very rare.

"The opportunity has come. He just entered the intermediate zone; I'm afraid he won't be in a rush to enter the battlefield."

"Now is a good time to get to know him better and meet up."

Chen Qing had watched Zhao Xing's livestreams for a while; he truly had no spare time.

"If I wait any longer, I'm afraid Zhao Xing won't be online much, and I won't have a way to go to the intermediate zone to find him."

After pondering for a moment, Chen Qing sent a message to Zhao Xing.

On a floating landmass.

Hum~

A tall figure wearing cyan battle armor and holding a battle saber appeared at one end of the floating land.

The armor enveloped his entire body, with mysterious energy patterns circling the surface, light flowing through them.

At the other end of the wasteland was a lord with a human-beast-insect body and an enchanting face.

Zhao Xing looked down from high in the sky.

This was the virtual world; the floating continent below was a replay of a battle between two lords.

At the same time, there was commentary from the virtual world in his ears.

Entering the virtual world, Zhao Xing spent 50,000 star coins to watch this duel between transcendent lords.

One side was an insectoid lord from the exotic beast category.

The other side was a martial arts lord!

"My name is 'Gao Er', a transcendent martial arts lord."

"This is an alien enemy I encountered by chance on the Myriad Races Battlefield, a transcendent-level insectoid lord."

A voice echoed in Zhao Xing's ears; it was clearly the Imperial powerhouse named 'Gao Er' at the other end of the wasteland.

"Although we are both transcendent-level lords, my strength completely crushes hers."

"But in order for friends who bought my battle analysis to gain some insight, I will only use half my strength in the upcoming battle."

The voice continued to echo, and Zhao Xing's eyes were filled with astonishment.

"A martial arts lord, fighting an insectoid lord of the same realm, actually claims to completely crush them?"

"And he's only using half his strength? No wonder his battle analysis video has over 100,000 views!" Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Entering the intermediate lord level, the aliens in the intermediate zone all had extremely rich combat experience.

To make up for his own shortcomings, Zhao Xing had also entered the virtual world.

He came to experience this kind of immersive battle analysis replay.

He chose the battle replay of a transcendent martial arts lord, 'Gao Er'.

This person was very popular in the 'Battle Analysis' transcendent-level section.

A single fee of 50,000 star coins, with over 100,000 paid views!

What kind of concept was that?

Relying on this one video, he earned 5 billion star coins!

Of course, the actual income couldn't be that high. First, this was a sales function provided by the virtual world officials, and the revenue was split 50/50.

Gao Er could only get 2.5 billion star coins. Secondly, according to Imperial law,

every citizen, even if they were a Solar-level lord, needed to pay taxes.

The higher the income, the more tax one had to pay, up to 60%!

What Gao Er actually got was probably around 1.2 billion star coins.

However, this was still quite exaggerated.

After all, this was just one of the battle videos Gao Er had recorded.

He had many more battle analysis replays.

It was enough to show the earning power of transcendent-level lords.

"It's starting."

Zhao Xing saw the static image on the wasteland turn dynamic and immediately watched with focused attention.

At the same time, the battle commentary began.

"For a martial arts lord, the inner world is a pure energy state."

"It is the only category among all lords that has no troops."
