Chapter 34: Astounding Rate of Advancement

Elite Training Camp, the Nine‑Story Tower ancient civilization gravity chamber.

Zhou Yang, dressed in loose training robes, is thrusting his Long Spear forward at an extremely slow pace.

At this moment, he has set the gravity multiplier in the chamber to ten times!

Under such terrifying gravity, his muscles, bones, even tissues and cells endure immense pressure, and the Long Spear in his hand weighs over a thousand jin.

Continuously practicing spear thrusts under this massive pressure, his stamina is consumed at a frighteningly rapid rate.

Sweat drenches his head and face, and his whole body trembles lightly despite his movements.

An endless wave of fatigue surges, violently assaulting his consciousness.

Yet during this process, a mysterious clear stream, several times stronger than usual, continuously flows from the spot of his Meteor Tear on his chest.

Zhou Yang nods heavily.

That abnormal learning speed even surprises the irritable old Dong, and the pace of his instruction inevitably quickens by a few points.

Dong Dao smiles warmly at him.

This causes his ranking to fluctuate only around the 160th place.

"Eh! You kid can take a beating, so you can really let loose now."

A high‑rank Beast General‑level monster, worth 100 achievement points.

Since the last time a strange "resonance" formed with the Meteor Tear, its auxiliary ability has become increasingly powerful.

In less than half a month, his spear technique barely brushed the shadow of the specialist level.

"Unfortunately, I only have one hour of usage time this month; it would be great if I could stay in the gravity chamber continuously."

"Umm… ahhh~"

"Trainee Zhou Yang, your allotted time in the gravity chamber has ended; please leave promptly!"

Zhou Yang wipes his sweat as he swiftly walks out of the gravity chamber.

"Time to go find Teacher Dong for spear practice."

At this moment, Zhou Yang senses his physical condition soaring at a speed dozens of times faster than normal cultivation, while the Spiritual Thought Power in his Consciousness Sea continuously rises like water lifting a boat.

Since he just joined the Elite Training Camp, he ranks 181st, the last spot, on the Black Dragon List.

And Combat Power Amplitude comprises both the force‑output level and the Trial Tower level.

When the Spiritual Thought Power is further strengthened, it might allow him to surpass the threshold of the Primary War‑God level.

This mysterious clear stream continuously seeps into his flesh, blood, and even his Gene.

During his days at the training camp, Zhou Yang finds each day exceptionally fulfilling.

"Are you stupid? Spear technique and footwork are inseparable; why are you training them separately!"

Zhou Yang darts forward quickly.

While easily easing his bodily fatigue, it also continuously nourishes and strengthens his body, raising his endurance limit.

A primary‑rank Lord‑level monster, worth 1,000 achievement points.

"I never said anything bad about the Hall Master; I'm talking about this Zhou Yang, who entered the camp with the status of a Spiritual Thought Master, so his physical force output is bound to be average!"

But compared to that, his Combat Power Amplitude is a considerable hindrance.

"Want more usage time?"

A Black youth waiting in line nods at him and steps directly into the gravity chamber.

"Aaaah, aaaa~"

"That one just now must be the new arrival; I heard he's called Zhou Yang, a Spiritual Thought Master."

For many techniques, Teacher Dong Dao only demonstrates once, and he can swiftly grasp the key points and master them in a short time.

"Spear practice! I demand that whether in the training camp or when hunting monsters, you must not neglect your spear training!"

Beyond strengthening his flesh, it can also to some extent boost his soul's Amplitude, greatly enhancing his consciousness, perception, and so on.

"With you like this, don't even think about entering the Trial Tower; you won't get past the first floor!"

After staying inside for just a while, he feels the effect is better than several days of ordinary cultivation.

"Shut up, you dare to criticize the Hall Master!"

"Even when you're dreaming, you must think about spear practice!"

The remaining days are spent training spear techniques with the irritable old Dong Dao.

"Teacher!"

Among all 181 trainees in the camp, his monster‑hunting efficiency definitely ranks within the top fifty!

Teacher Dong Dao smiles with his eyes narrowed, the wrinkles on his face forming a daisy‑like pattern.

"Hmm, is the gravity chamber time up?"

With the aid of the Meteor Tear, his five senses can be amplified nearly dozens of times in a short span, and his comprehension ability can reach a terrifying level.

A primary‑rank Beast General‑level monster, worth 1 achievement point.

That's not bad, that's quite good!

That's at least several tens of times faster training speed.

The next moment, the training ground echoes with Zhou Yang's scream.

"If you think so, then you must double your effort!"

Zhou Yang checks the time, rushes downstairs, and heads toward a combat hall in the Elite Training Camp.

Thus he immediately receives a thunderous roar from that irritable old man!

"160th place? Aren't you ashamed!"

"Damn it, I haven't taken a student for years; finally I get you, and if you make me lose face, just watch how I deal with you!"

"Your current force‑output level is only double, which places you at a merely average level among the 181 trainees in the camp."

"Don't talk to me about gun technique; your gun technique doesn't even reach specialization, it's downright battle trash, trash among trash!"

Soon after he left, the few male and female trainees with white skin and Jin Shu hair waiting on the ninth floor began to argue quickly.

A medium Beast General‑rank monster, worth 10 battle points.

"Tsk, what's so great about a Spiritual Thought Master? Spiritual Thought Power can't be used in the Trial Tower. Just wait and see; his ranking at the end of the month isn't high at all."

"Your body technique and footwork are even trash; they barely reach the Subtle level and are straight at the bottom!"

If he can keep strengthening at this speed, it should only take a few days for his physical quality to easily break through to the intermediate Battle General rank!

Occasionally, one or two startled exclamations from the old man were interspersed.

Zhou Yang naturally couldn't hear the discussion behind him; after more than ten minutes, he arrived at a very spacious outdoor training ground.

Nevertheless, he still forced himself to nod heavily.

"Think!"

Under Teacher Dong Dao's "Patience" guidance, his gun technique and body technique realms improved rapidly.

A beginner Battle God‑level Spiritual Thought Master is definitely a highly coveted prize that every major power would scramble for!

By then, neither the Sakura Nation's Battle God nor the Li family of Jiangnan Base City will be any threat.

However, that exhilarating feeling of rapid improvement didn't last long; a burst of electronic beeps pulled his scattered thoughts back.

Zhou Yang cultivated the first tier of Extinction, allowing a 2× power output; the power‑output level is 2.

He hasn't yet undergone a Trial Tower test, so the Trial Tower level defaults to 1.

Combat Amplitude equals power‑output level 2 multiplied by Trial Tower level 1, resulting in 2.

As a Spiritual Thought Master, Zhou Yang undoubtedly has a huge advantage in hunting monsters.

The Black Dragon Ranking's point calculation rule multiplies each month's base battle points from monster hunting by the Combat Amplitude.

According to the rules, on his designated day each month he, along with the other 180 trainees, heads to a city in the wilderness about three hundred kilometers from the training camp—City No. 1001—to hunt monsters.

"How's it going, the effect's not bad, right?"

Hunting monsters, practicing gun, refining Gene primal energy, day after day, yet he doesn't find it boring at all.

At this moment, a white‑bearded and white‑haired "amiable" old man was already waiting there in the training ground—he was Dong Dao, Zhou Yang's teacher from the Elite Training Camp.

"Hmm, he's a Huaxia person; Huaxia people are truly fortunate—the Hall Master comes from Huaxia and looks after them greatly!"

Seeing his expression, Zhou Yang instinctively felt a hint of danger.

"That person is also a Spiritual Thought Master, a highly coveted prize that every major power wants to snatch!"

Zhou Yang's wail grew increasingly high‑pitched.

In the days that followed, Zhou Yang's life became extremely regular.

Amid this intensive cultivation and improvement, time quickly reached December 28th.

This day is also the final day of the Black Dragon Ranking cutoff!
