'Ancient Civilization' Gravity Chamber and Trial Room

"From 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM, this hour is the 'rest period' for the Trial Room and Gravity Chamber. Usually, prospective student assessments or new student orientations take place during this time."

"Let's go. The Trial Room isn't urgent for now; I'll take you to experience the 'Ancient Civilization' Gravity Chamber."

Yang Hui led them to the ninth floor, walking along the main hall toward the very back.

The ninth-floor hall was furnished with sofas for students to rest and chat. Many students would come here to relax after training on the seventh or eighth floors before heading back to work out again.

This was the reason why the bar on the first floor was practically useless...

Seeing Yang Hui bring Xu Ai and the others to the ninth floor, the group of students was clearly puzzled, but they didn't think too much of it.

After all, it was already December, and everyone knew that the Elite Training Camp recruitment period was in February or March. They assumed these were just staff members coming to check the equipment in the three rooms.

A few students with better intelligence gathering skills, however, clearly recognized Xu Ai and Xu Xin—the disciples of the Ruthless Councilor!

Still, they didn't overthink it, assuming they were just visiting before enrolling next year.

They were welcoming toward Xu Ai and Xu Xin, regardless of which faction they belonged to.

After all, the training camp—or rather, this world—had a distinct characteristic: there were many wolves but little meat! Not to mention the beautiful ones!

The male students were certainly happy about Xu Ai and Xu Xin joining, and the female students were even more welcoming!

But when they noticed Luo Feng, their expressions shifted noticeably.

Is that guy also going to join the training camp in the future? What kind of background does he have to receive this kind of treatment!?

Regardless of what the students were thinking, Yang Hui had already led them to the very back.

A beam of light swept over Yang Hui and the others at the entrance of the Gravity Chamber, followed by a 'beep,' and the door slid open.

Xu Ai and the others walked inside.

The entire interior of the Gravity Chamber was constructed from an unknown yellow and black metal, with a control console at the entrance that looked incredibly high-tech.

After Yang Hui briefly introduced the 'great' feat of Hong 'leaving a fist print in the Gravity Chamber,' he finally got to the point.

"Xu Xin and Luo Feng are both Low-level War Generals, so your limit is 9 times gravity."

As he spoke, Yang Hui tapped the console, and numbers popped up on the screen: '1, 2, 3...'!

Luo Feng looked on, still a bit confused, but Xu Xin, having experienced this many times, immediately prepared herself.

When the number jumped to '9,' an invisible pressure slammed down on the four people in the room instantly.

Yang Hui and Xu Ai only felt an extra force on their bodies, but given their physical fitness, this 9x gravity had no effect on them.

But it was different for Xu Xin and Luo Feng. Xu Xin was fine, having prepared in advance, but Luo Feng was caught off guard and slammed down by the gravity, nearly collapsing to the floor.

"Hahaha..."

Apologies, but Yang Hui really couldn't help it; seeing new students get humbled always amused him.

Luo Feng didn't feel embarrassed at all; instead, he thought this Gravity Chamber was excellent!

"So this is the Gravity Chamber. It really is different from regular weighted training."

"Exactly. When you do weighted training, the areas you can train are always limited. How could that compare to the Gravity Chamber, which applies weight directly to every cell and every atom?"

Yang Hui nodded with a smile.

After Luo Feng trained for a little while, Yang Hui turned off the gravity.

"Alright, next we're going to the Trial Room. This place is the second most important room in the entire training camp."

The most important, naturally, was the Gravity Chamber.

Yang Hui opened the door to the Gravity Chamber and led them to the Trial Room.

"Although you are special recruits and don't need to participate in any assessments, you will eventually have to use the Trial Room, so let me give you a preview."

The Gravity Chamber, the Trial Room, and the Challenge Room were not far apart—just a few steps away.

Soon, Yang Hui and the others arrived at the Trial Room.

The door to the Trial Room opened to reveal two sofas, each with a deep blue helmet resting on it.

"These two helmets were painstakingly replicated by our human scientists, modeled after the consciousness sensors of the virtual space equipment unearthed from Ancient Civilization ruins."

Yang Hui briefly introduced the Consciousness Induction Helmet to Xu Xin and Luo Feng.

"Once you put on the Consciousness Induction Helmet, your consciousness will enter a virtual space with 100% simulation accuracy, identical to the real world. The trials take place within this virtual space."

"100% simulation accuracy?"

Luo Feng asked curiously. Xu Xin was also intrigued; Xu Ai and the Ruthless Councilor both had such helmets, but she hadn't been able to use one.

"Yes. It really makes you wonder how advanced the technology of the Ancient Civilization was, and how they were wiped out..."

Yang Hui sighed.

"Anyway, don't think too much about it. There are only two Consciousness Induction Helmets here. Luo Feng, you go first; Xu Xin, you wait a moment."

"Luo Feng, follow my lead."

Luo Feng watched as Yang Hui lay down on the sofa, so he followed suit.

"Then put on the helmet, and your consciousness will enter the virtual space. You don't need to panic."

At Yang Hui's signal, Luo Feng put on the Consciousness Induction Helmet. He felt a sudden buzz in his head, and by the time his vision refocused, he had arrived on a vast, silver-white plain.

Yang Hui did not rush to put on his own helmet, instead looking toward Xu Ai and the others.

"Xu Xin, wait for me a moment. Once I finish explaining things to Luo Feng, I'll give the spot to you."

He had no intention of letting Xu Ai try it out, and the reason was simple: Xu Ai was a War God who was already eligible to join the War God Palace.

She had long since possessed a Consciousness Induction Helmet and could log directly into the Trial Tower to challenge it, so there was no need for her to experience this.

After speaking, Yang Hui put on his helmet and entered the virtual space as well.

Xu Ai waited with Xu Xin for a while before Yang Hui took off his helmet and stood up.

"Alright, Xu Xin, it's your turn."

Yang Hui placed the helmet back on the sofa and gestured for Xu Xin to come over.

Under Yang Hui's guidance, Xu Xin lay down and put on the helmet, her consciousness immediately entering the virtual space.

"It's half an hour until one o'clock. I wonder if they'll be able to pass the first stage of the first floor."

Though he said that, he was actually only referring to Xu Xin; after all, Yang Hui was quite clear on Luo Feng's strength.

The fourth layer of the Nine-Layered Thunder Blade provided a 3.2x force amplification, and combined with his perfect-level movement technique, only his blade technique was slightly lacking, but passing the first stage of the first floor shouldn't be difficult.

The first stage of the first floor was exactly the A-level test from the original work: kill 50 low-level Beast General-level Reckless Bulls surrounding you within 30 minutes!

"Luo Feng can pass it, but my sister might not."

Xu Ai said helplessly.

There was no other reason; Xu Xin's combat experience was simply too poor...

Meanwhile, in the virtual space, Xu Xin had already arrived at the Trial Tower.

"I'm heading in then. See you in a bit."

Luo Feng said, then entered the Trial Tower, leaving Xu Xin speechless.

Xu Xin couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"If you miss this chance, you'll realize next time just how hard it is to get some alone time."

Given her sister's level of sister-obsession, she wouldn't easily give her "enemy for life" a chance...

In any case, she wouldn't reject her own sister for the sake of Luo Feng; after all, she was a sister-con herself...

Xu Xin stated the combat suit and weapons she needed, and the equipment she requested descended from the sky.

She put on the combat suit, picked up her longsword, and entered the Trial Tower as well.

"Student Xu Xin, please kill the 50 low-level Beast General-level Reckless Bulls surrounding you within 30 minutes! If you die during the process, you fail! If you fail to kill the required number of Reckless Bulls after 30 minutes, you also fail! As this is your first time entering the Trial Tower, you have five minutes of preparation time."

Knowing her lack of combat experience, Xu Xin stretched her body slightly and then waited calmly for the time to end.

The moment the five minutes were up, in a single instant, fifty Reckless Bulls appeared on the grassland in the distance.

The battle began...
