• Wei Wen brought Chen Yuan and Luo Hai to the Training Camp, where instructor Jiang Fang assessed Chen Yuan and asked about his abilities.
• Chen Yuan explained that he had refined the Spirit Wind Sword Art into the Gale Sword Art, which could reach fivefold force exertion and double his movement and sword-drawing speeds at Completion Level.

• Jiang Fang explained that Chen Yuan would need to take the Trial Tower test, but Chen Yuan revealed that he had already scored 4.8.
• Jiang Fang checked the system and confirmed Chen Yuan's 4.8 Trial Tower score, leaving her shocked.

Chen Yuan and Luo Hai joined the Elite Training Camp, where Jiang Fang arranged their registration and explained the ranking system. After the rankings placed Chen Yuan fifth due to outdated test data, he corrected his Force Exertion Level and rose to second place behind Luo Hai.

• Jiang Fang agreed to submit Chen Yuan for official recruitment and asked him and Luo Hai to choose the final digits of their student numbers.
• Luo Hai explained that Training Camp rankings were based on Combat Power Amplitude rather than battle record points, and that he expected to rank first while Chen Yuan would place near the top.
• The Black Dragon Statue rankings updated with Luo Hai in first place and Chen Yuan in fifth, showing Chen Yuan's outdated Combat Power Amplitude of 14.4.
• Chen Yuan realized Jiang Fang had recorded his Force Exertion Level as three times, so he entered the Virtual Space and retook the test at 3.6 times.
• Chen Yuan's Combat Power Amplitude updated to 17.28, placing him second behind Luo Hai.

Chen Yuan and Luo Hai arrived at Jiangnan Pavilion, where they met Yu Qinglan and chose their rooms. Jiang Fang then summoned Chen Yuan to meet an inspector after Limit Dojo headquarters replied about his special contract.

• Luo Hai and Chen Yuan rose to the top of the Training Camp rankings, with Chen Yuan later moving into second place and pushing Lu Yuan to third.

• Jiang Fang told Chen Yuan that headquarters had replied about his special contract and took him to meet an inspector.
• Yu Qinglan learned from Luo Hai that the contract was Limit Dojo's Official Recruitment Contract and reacted with shock.

Chen Yuan met Inspector Wang to review and sign a contract offering major rewards for reaching three Combat Power Amplitude targets. Afterward, Jiang Fang asked how his Force Exertion Level had risen so quickly, and Chen Yuan said he had updated his information after entering the Trial Tower.

• Chen Yuan and Jiang Fang arrived at Inspector Wang’s villa, where he asked Chen Yuan to review the contract.
• Chen Yuan learned that meeting the first target had already qualified him for a 9-Series Battle Suit, weapons, a manual, and Jade Marrow.
• Chen Yuan read the rewards for reaching Combat Power Amplitudes of 18 and 25 and judged the targets achievable within two months.
• Inspector Wang explained that the contract’s omitted fourth reward was a Wood Bud Crystal, which the dojo removed because Inspector Wei had already promised Chen Yuan one.
• Chen Yuan signed both copies of the contract and left with Jiang Fang.
• Jiang Fang asked how Chen Yuan’s Force Exertion Level had reached 3.6, and he said he had hidden some strength and updated his information in the Trial Tower.

Jiang Fang explained the Training Camp’s facilities and arranged Gravity Chamber time for Chen Yuan and Luo Hai. Chen Yuan collected his first resource delivery and learned that Jade Marrow could double his Gene Origin Energy cultivation efficiency for a month, leaving him hopeful that he could reach the War God level soon.

• Jiang Fang explained the Training Camp’s facilities and told Chen Yuan he had 90 hours in the Gravity Chamber this month, while Luo Hai had 120 hours.
• Luo Hai asked to give his Gravity Chamber time to Chen Yuan, but Jiang Fang said she would have to apply for an exception.
• Chen Yuan said his resources would help him reach the War God level within two months, then received a delivery from Limit Dojo.
• Chen Yuan opened the lockbox and found a Series 9 combat uniform, a Streamer Battle Sword, the World Destroyer manual, and a tube of Jade Marrow.
• Chen Yuan read that Jade Marrow doubled Gene Origin Energy cultivation efficiency for a month and could not be combined with treasures that directly increased strength.

Chen Yuan followed an intense routine of gravity-assisted cultivation, manual study, and sword training, rapidly improving his strength and skills. Ten days after arriving at the Training Camp, he learned that his Jade Marrow had run out because he had absorbed its effects unusually quickly.

• Chen Yuan trained for at least six hours a day in the Gravity Chamber, studied martial arts manuals, and practiced the Gale Sword Art in the Trial Tower.
• Chen Yuan studied Thunder Blade and World Destroyer, concluding that their later levels focused on orthodox force exertion and bodily control.
• Luo Hai repeatedly challenged Chen Yuan to spar, while Jiang Fang stopped guiding him closely after his Force Exertion Level exceeded four times.
• By December 10th, Chen Yuan's Gale Sword Art proficiency reached 83%, his Force Exertion Level reached 4.6 times, and his Meditation Method proficiency reached 74%.
• Chen Yuan told Jiang Fang that Jade Marrow had stopped working after ten days and that his strength had reached about 37,180 kilograms.
• Jiang Fang explained that Chen Yuan had consumed the Jade Marrow's limited medicinal effects through his exceptional cultivation speed, leaving him free to use Dragon Blood.

Chen Yuan received the rewards for meeting the second condition of his martial arts hall contract and tested the Black God Set before applying the Dragon Blood. After enduring its pain through meditation, he completed the Crystal Meditation method and greatly strengthened his consciousness.

• Chen Yuan verified that his Combat Power Amplitude met the contract’s second condition and claimed an SS-class combat uniform, weapons, a Black God Set, Dragon Blood, and three secret manuals.
• Chen Yuan bonded with the Black God Set, tested its protection with his Streamer Battle Sword, and stored it as a wristband.
• Chen Yuan applied the Dragon Blood and endured its increasingly severe pain instead of passing out.
• Chen Yuan meditated through the pain, raising the Meditation Method’s proficiency until it reached completion and entered stillness.
• Two hours later, Chen Yuan checked his status and found his consciousness strength at Peak Planetary Level and his life gene level at 1.1.

After breaking through the Meditation Method’s limit into Entering Stillness, Chen Yuan gained a huge increase in Consciousness Strength and learned to sense his body and affect others with Mental Radiation. He began searching for a suitable meditation object for an Entering Stillness method and realized that Earth itself might be the answer.

• Chen Yuan discovered that the Meditation Method had reached Entering Stillness, raising his Brain Domain Width by two points and his Consciousness Strength to Planetary Level Peak.
• Chen Yuan learned to use his mental power to sense individual cells, though he could not control them, and to perceive and hypnotize people within a 500-meter radius.
• Chen Yuan considered using Mental Radiation against enemies in a monster tide, while resolving not to abuse the ability.
• Chen Yuan tried to optimize the Hibernation Method for Entering Stillness, but the system rejected the task because he lacked a meditation object.
• Chen Yuan ruled out meditating on a person and other treasures before deciding that Earth itself could serve as the meditation object.

Chen Yuan realized he needed to observe Earth firsthand, including from space, to optimize a cultivation method using the planet as a meditation object. After Jiang Fang approved his leave and Wei Wen lent him a Primordial-class Smart Fighter Jet, Chen Yuan boarded it to begin his journey.

• Chen Yuan learned that the system needed him to observe Earth in detail, including viewing the whole planet from space, before it could optimize his cultivation method.
• Chen Yuan asked Jiang Fang for indefinite leave to travel around Earth, and she approved ten days with the option to extend it.
• Jiang Fang told Chen Yuan that Wei Wen owned a Primordial-class Smart Fighter Jet and suggested he ask to borrow it.
• Wei Wen agreed to lend Chen Yuan the fighter jet and said it would fly back on its own when Chen Yuan finished.
• Chen Yuan collected his belongings, waited at the Training Camp entrance, and boarded Wei Wen's fighter jet when it arrived.

Chen Yuan completed the system’s collection of Earth’s macro-level and terrain data, then used 118 Kill Points to begin optimizing the Hibernation Method into a personalized cultivation method for the Entering Stillness realm. The optimization was expected to take seventy-two hours as the fighter jet carried him back to the Training Camp.

• Chen Yuan observed Earth from orbit for three days until the system finished collecting its macro-level data.
• Chen Yuan visited more than a hundred locations with unique terrain, completing the system’s terrain data collection after five days.
• Chen Yuan asked Primordial to return him to the Training Camp after thanking it for its help.
• Chen Yuan created an optimization task for the Hibernation Method, tailored to his circumstances and focused on strengthening his consciousness and spiritual realm.
• Chen Yuan added the extra 110 Kill Points the system required, bringing the cost to 118, and started an optimization expected to take seventy-two hours.

Chen Yuan returned to the Training Camp and agreed to spar with Luo Hai in reality. He easily dodged Luo Hai’s attacks, and the match ended when Luo Hai broke their agreement by using excessive strength.

• Chen Yuan returned to the Training Camp, canceled his leave with Jiang Fang, and reunited with Luo Hai at Jiangnan Pavilion.
• Luo Hai told Chen Yuan that Yu Qinglan could exchange thirty moves with him and used fighting techniques remarkably similar to Chen Yuan’s.
• Chen Yuan proposed a real-world spar, and he and Luo Hai went to the Training Ground wearing Black God Sets.
• Chen Yuan dodged Luo Hai’s attacks with Micro Level movements, even as Luo Hai used Hundred Fierce Blades and Thousand Calamities.
• Luo Hai used strength beyond their agreement, and the referee declared Chen Yuan the winner.
