Senior Brother's Meeting Gift, Team Challenge

Silence filled the gap between the two of them for a long time. Lin Yi lowered his head and pondered, seeming to be digesting the huge amount of information and weighing something.

Cang Ming, on the other hand, didn't know what he was thinking of. He was looking at the starry sky in the distance and was lost in thought.

Finally, Lin Yi raised his head. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Cang Ming and asked:

"Senior Brother, if I assume. It's just a hypothesis, there is a Human Race genius who, on a certain Tiered Battlefield, has shown strength that is enough to rival, and even suppress to a certain extent, the genius of the peak race who came to experience. So that on this level of battlefield, we Human Race no longer need to humbly pray for help from the peak race. What impact will such a situation have?"

"In other words, will this genius be maliciously targeted by the peak race outside the rules of the battlefield?"

Cang Ming Hearing this, he was slightly startled at first, and then a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

There was understanding in that smile, as well as a hint of appreciation for the ambition behind Lin Yi's "hypothesis".

He laughed dumbly, shook his head, and said in a very definite tone:

"You can rest assured. No matter how amazingly talented the person is, even if it is a peerless genius who only emerges in millions of standard years, as long as he has not yet crossed the final threshold, his value is definitely not worth allowing any peak race to openly tear up the rules that are tacitly followed by the three peak races and many powerful races."

Cang Ming paused, seeming to be lost in memories. After a while, he explained seriously:

"You have to know that the value and stability of the rules that maintain the current set of wars are far higher than the victory or defeat of a specific battlefield and a specific era. As for the impact of individual geniuses, that is not worth mentioning. This is one of the cornerstones of maintaining the current relatively peaceful pattern of the universe, and no party will easily shake it. Even..."

There was an extremely brief pause in Cang Ming's words, as if he had touched a deeper taboo.

He did not continue speaking, but changed the topic and emphasized again:

"In short, you can rest assured. If you want to truly make the peak race feel threatened and be willing to take action, you must at least touch the edge of "Lord of Source Laws". So, as long as you have the ability, just use it within the rules and compete. The better you perform, to some extent, the peak race may have to thank you for helping to sharpen the spirit of their arrogant geniuses."

Then, Cang Ming seemed to remember something, and added, "Once upon a time, our Human Race territory also had births that overran contemporaries Spirit Race and Abyss Race Tianjiao is a peerless figure, whose sharpness makes his peers feel depressed. But in the end, that person is still stuck on the threshold to Lord of Source Laws. Talent is very important, but growing up and reaching the end is the key."

Lin Yi Listened carefully, a stone fell to the ground in my heart.

What he needs to confirm is the bottom line of safety when acting within the rules.

Now that he got the answer he wanted, Lin Yi nodded and expressed his knowledge. "I understand, thank you for informing me, senior brother."

After obtaining the information and dispelling all worries, Lin Yi no longer intends to stay any longer. Cultivation is the foundation.

He saluted Cang Ming again. "Senior Brother, if there are no other instructions, Junior Brother will go to practice first."

Cang Ming looked at the young junior brother in front of him who, after hearing the grand background and cruel truth, not only did not get discouraged, but his eyes became firmer, and even had a faint attitude of "I have to fight for Human Race on my own", I couldn't help but secretly shake my head, feeling quite emotional.

He seemed to see himself countless years ago, who was also very high-spirited after hearing the truth and wanted to compete with God.

Therefore, Cang Ming did not try to dampen Lin Yi's enthusiasm, and did not describe in detail the gulf-like gap between Human Race's genius and those real monsters who were stacked with endless resources by the peak races and inherited ancient terrifying bloodlines.

After all, it is a good thing for young people to have goals and drive.

Anyway, there are still thousands of years before those top geniuses enter the field on a large scale, and it will not be too late to find a way for this young junior brother to leave the core vortex of Tiered Battlefield.

Thinking of this, Cang Ming said in an encouraging tone, "Well, go ahead. Practice hard and lay a solid foundation. If there ever comes a day in the future, let those who have higher eyes take a closer look. Our Human Race territory is not a back garden where they can come and leave whenever they want!"

Lin Yi could hear the expectation in his senior brother's tone. He nodded seriously, saluted again, and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Cang Ming seemed to suddenly remember something, and quickly stopped the little guy who was about to immerse himself in hard work, "You are more anxious than me. Senior brother, I haven't given you the greeting gift yet, why are you anxious?"

Lin Yi paused, with a trace of embarrassment on his face.

Having just heard such big news, he was really busy thinking about the future and cultivation.

Cang Ming pondered and said, "Let me think about it. You are majoring in Metal Rule, and you are feeling Life Rule. Well, I have it."

He waved his hand lightly, as if calling up a list of items in the virtual space.

"I happen to still have a few shares of Life Source Fruit here. You can take one piece of this thing every fifty years. It will be quite beneficial to Star Domain level's understanding of Life Rule." He looked at Lin Yi, "I will ask my Intelligent Life to contact your Intelligent Life directly and send it to you through the encrypted logistics channel of Human Race Chamber of Commerce. It should be in your hands soon."

Soon?

Lin Yi thought to himself, based on senior brother's concept of seeing time, I don't know how long it will take soon...

And he captured another key message: "Only once every fifty years?"

"Not bad."

Cang Ming confirmed, "Life Source Fruit has mellow energy and contains a unique rhythm of life. It takes time to digest and absorb. Frequent consumption is tantamount to a waste of resources. The fifty-year interval is the proven best cycle."

Lin Yi quickly calculated in his mind that even if he got it right away, he would only eat one at most in the foreseeable future.

However, after all, it is senior brother's wish, and the extra can be used by Aurelia who also practices Life Rule, so it will not be wasted.

Although Lin Yi's newly established favorable impression of "Spirit Race" as a whole has been shattered due to the truth about the proxy war, he will not foolishly implicate his feelings about race on specific individuals.

Aurelia is Aurelia, Spirit Race is Spirit Race.

He has been a high-level civilized person for so long and has already seen it clearly.

Races and races are just like countries in previous lives. There are no eternal feelings, only eternal interests.

If the statuses of Human Race and Spirit Race were swapped and they were at the top of the race, the choices they would make would probably be the same.

What he has to do now is the same as when he led Blue Star Civilization to struggle for survival in the apocalypse, which is to strengthen himself.

Whether it is external assistance or internal unity, it is ultimately to enhance one's own strength.

After thinking about this, Lin Yi no longer struggled and sincerely thanked Cang Ming: "Thank you, senior brother, for the generous gift!"

Cang Ming waved his hand. "A little gadget, I hope it can be helpful to you. Go ahead and look forward to your performance in the training camp and on the battlefield."

The two said goodbye again, Lin Yi did not delay, and his consciousness immediately returned to reality.

He told Xuanji to pay attention to and receive the "Life Source Fruit" that was about to be delivered, and then devoted most of his energy to crazy cultivation.

Regarding Rule Comprehension, after forcibly increasing Life Rule to 82%, he did feel a sense of sluggishness that was beyond his capabilities. Apart from digesting the aftertaste of the rules of enlightenment, he did not plan to spend more time understanding the rules. Instead, he placed his main hope on the continued accumulation of Spiritual Enlightenment Qi, waiting for the opportunity for quantitative changes to lead to qualitative changes.

Therefore, he focused his current training on perfecting his skills.

Rule Comprehension is the foundation, the Spring of power, and combat skills are the key to perfect or even extraordinary use of this power.

Lin Yi has now discovered that having powerful rules without superb application methods is no different than a child wielding a sledgehammer. Not only is it inefficient to injure the enemy, but it is also more likely to injure oneself.

Therefore, he selected several high-level combat skills courses in a targeted manner in the virtual training camp.

<Rule Blade·Advanced Application>: In-depth explanation of how to highly compress the power of the field, change its form, and even learn some knowledge of attribute superposition, pursuing the ultimate lethality, which is exactly in line with his path of using Nine Luminaries Thunder Bead and integrating it with future rules.

<Starsea Flowing Shadow Movement Technique>: Focus on extreme dodge and high-speed maneuvering under complex cosmic environments, high-intensity energy and rule interference. Life-saving ability always comes first.

<Analysis of Multi-Dimensional Battlefield Tactics>: It is not about personal combat skills, but about teaching how to maximize the role of personal force in different dimensional battlefields such as starship battles, stronghold attack and defense, and team coordination.

Every day, he shuttles between major training areas.

He placed himself in various extremely harsh environments and in front of powerful virtual opponents, repeatedly honing the new skills he had just learned, and turning the theories into muscle memory and fighting instincts.

Nine Luminaries Thunder Bead becomes more agile and unpredictable in his hands, sometimes splitting into nine shadows and covering all directions; sometimes they merge into one, turning into a thunder spear that penetrates everything; sometimes he activates Metal Rule, laying down a field filled with chilling energy.

His control of power has become more and more precise, and his energy utilization rate has improved significantly based on Star Firefly's previous reminder.

Time passed quickly due to the consumption of sweat and Points. In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

This day is the day the team has agreed to conduct the first team Endless Tower challenge.

When Lin Yi appeared under Endless Tower on time, the other six team members had already arrived.

After only half a month of absence, the aura exuding from everyone seemed to have changed slightly, their eyes were more focused, and the energy flowing around them seemed more smooth and smooth.

"Captain!"

Kenkes was the first to come up, and his colored hair seemed to be a little brighter with excitement. "The resources of this training camp are really awesome. I redeemed a course <Light Illusion Body-Confusing Art>. I have a new understanding of the application of transfiguration of the rules of light. I feel that I can hope to pass the tenth personal level."

Ai Wen·Qingyu nodded with a smile, "I have studied <Life Meridian Resonance Technique> in depth and have a deeper understanding of treatment and group assistance."

He looked at Lin Yi and said pointedly, "Perhaps Life Rule can better cooperate with the captain in team battles."

Lei Hao beat his chest hard, making a dull sound. His honest face was full of confidence. "I have practiced <Immovable as Mountain Seal> to a small level, and now I have the confidence to resist the full blow of Xingxuan's later image."

Mo Yuan is still concise and to the point, "I am stronger."

Star Firefly reported calmly, "Comprehensive data analysis shows that the team's average combat power is estimated to have increased by about 14.7%. I personally loaded the new combat calculation module, and the efficiency of battlefield Dynamic analysis and tactical suggestions increased by 12.1%."

Amber was the most excited. She waved her little fist and said, "Captain, I have learned a new force technique called "Star-Shattering Force". I will definitely be able to smash those hard shells faster next time."

Seeing the team members who were obviously improving, Lin Yi also felt a surge of pride in his heart.

This is the power of a team, promoting each other and growing together.

"Very good." Lin Yi glanced at everyone, "It seems that everyone has spent this time well. So, let us test how everyone's progress is."

As the captain, he represents the team to the team mode registration office of Endless Tower.

The entrance to the team mode is adjacent to the individual mode, but the information displayed on the light screen is more complex. In addition to the team name and queue sequence, the team's comprehensive rating and expected challenge level are also displayed.

Just when Lin Yi submitted the challenge application and the captain's name appeared on the team queue sequence light screen, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"Look, it's that Lin Yi!"

"They are finally going to challenge the team mode?"

"One 4-speed top, two excellent 4-speed, one accurate 4-speed, and three excellent 5-speed. This configuration is considered luxurious among the 4-speed team."

"I heard that their captain reached the 17th floor on his first day. His potential is amazing."

"Let's see how they work together as a team. Just because a strong individual is strong doesn't mean they can compete as a team."

Discussions came from all around, including some personnel sent by other Tier 4 teams to collect intelligence.

The emergence of the Lin Yi team has obviously been regarded as a new force that cannot be ignored.

Almost within a few minutes of Lin Yi's name appearing on the light screen, the news spread quickly through Virtual Network.

The first person to arrive was Qing Feng, the captain of the "White Fang" team. She was still looking like she was in a hurry. She led two core team members, nodded to Lin Yi from a distance, and stood aside with her arms folded, obviously wanting to evaluate the quality of this potential competitor or future partner at the first time.

Immediately afterwards, Deputy Captain Xing Yu of the "Star Radiance" team also appeared with a gentle smile.

He first greeted Lin Yi: "Captain Lin Yi, I wish you success in your first team challenge."

Then he stood quietly on the other side, his eyes sweeping over Kenkes, Mo Yuan and others, as if silently recording something.

The intelligence officer beside him even turned on the non-intrusive recording mode.

Not only that, several other team representatives who had exchanged Contact Mark with Lin Yi after that personal tower invasion, such as Spirit Race's adjutant of "Eye of the Stars", Shadow Race's genius of team "Shadow Shuttle", etc., also appeared one after another.

They came alone, or with one or two team members, and nodded from a distance to say hello and show their concern.

There were even a few geniuses whom Lin Yi didn't know, but who had blue halos under their feet, also appeared around Tower Base. Most of their eyes were focused on Lin Yi, with curiosity and scrutiny, and perhaps a hint of competition that was not easy to detect.

Obviously, Lin Yi's "17th floor on the first day" result has attracted the attention of some higher-level geniuses, and they also want to know how this new team performs in team collaboration.

For a moment, the entrance area of Team Endless Tower, which was originally just a regular queue, had a vague atmosphere of a small viewing party.

All kinds of eyes intertwined on the seven people, including curiosity, scrutiny, expectation, and a touch of pressure.

Kenkes felt the gazes around him. Instead of being nervous, he straightened his back and whispered, "Captain, let's warm up before fighting."

Mo Yuan frowned slightly, as if he didn't like getting too much attention, but his hand holding the gun became more stable.

Lei Hao grinned, as if the surrounding eyes were some kind of encouragement.

Ai Wen and Star Firefly are still calm, one is focusing on adjusting his own state, and the other is quickly analyzing the reactions of the people around him.

Amber looked around excitedly, showing no signs of stage fright at all the looks coming his way.

Lin Yi had a clear view of the team members' reactions and felt calm.

This kind of attention will come sooner or later.

He took a deep breath and looked at the grand entrance of team Endless Tower.

The rules of team Endless Tower are completely different from those of individual towers.

It is not simply a test of the depth of an individual's Rule Comprehension, but more focused on the complementary rules, tactical coordination and collaborative explosiveness among team members when their cultivation is limited to Star Core level. Its core is - leapfrog challenge.

The mirror enemy in the tower, starting from the first floor, is a standard Star Vortex level first level.

The second floor is the two-digit Star Vortex level second level.

Moreover, it is no longer a single military unit, but will have mirror combinations with different rule tendencies and different combat functions.

As the number of layers increases, the number, type, coordination, and rule strength of enemies will increase.

Until the tenth floor, what you need to face is the Star Vortex level peak mirror team, which is composed of ten Star Vortex levels, who are skilled in cooperation and perfect in the application of rules.

Moreover, starting from the eleventh floor, the enemy will no longer be Star Vortex level, but the real first-order mirror image of Star Domain level.

Although it is just the most common Star Domain level, its life level and rule control are a qualitative change from the previous Star Vortex level, and the difficulty of the challenge has increased exponentially.

This also means that being able to pass the tenth level in team mode proves that this Star Core level team has the ability to compete with or even defeat the ordinary Star Vortex level perfect team.

And if they can get through the eleventh floor, it means that they have the possibility to defeat the most common Star Domain level existence.

This is the miracle created by teamwork and the support of rules.

As time passed, soon it was Lin Yi's turn.

Around Tower Base, more and more eyes are focusing on it.

Many other team members who were queuing or taking a break stopped what they were doing and watched curiously as this new team made its debut.

Lin Yi took a deep breath and looked at the six teammates standing side by side.

Kenkes put away his laughter and focused his eyes; Mo Yuan pressed the hidden gun with his hand, his breath was sharp; Lei Hao took a step forward, like a mountain; Ai Wen's fingertips were filled with emerald green light; Star Firefly's face was calm, and the data flow was silently surging; Amber licked his lips excitedly, with fighting spirit boiling.

"Everyone." Lin Yi did not make any lengthy speech in front of the station. He just gave a final reminder, "Remember the formation and coordination of our drill. Our goal is not only to clear the level, but also to find out the limits of our team."

"Understood!" Everyone shouted in unison, with overwhelming momentum.

A huge light door lit up at the team's entrance, emitting a hazy light.

Lin Yi no longer hesitated, took the lead and stepped into the light door.

The other team members followed closely behind, and seven figures disappeared into the entrance that represented challenges and hardships.

As the last person entered, the light door trembled slightly, then stabilized.

At the same time, outside team Endless Tower, the huge light ring corresponding to the first layer suddenly lit up with white light.

The first team challenge has officially begun.
