A Light-Pillar Training Room cost ten million Xia currency to purchase.

For one like this, where even a Fourth-Realm powerhouse could not peer inside, the guaranteed minimum price was thirty million Xia currency per room.

Bringing out thirty of them at once meant spending at least nine hundred million Xia currency!

Even Ye Ling could not help showing surprise at such extravagance.

"When all thirty Light-Pillar Training Rooms have gone dark, this class will be over," Pei Xuan said.

Hearing that, Su Yuan estimated the time. It was around 1:40 in the afternoon.

"If any students are not afraid of revealing how they train their martial skills or their breathing techniques, you can voluntarily open your Light-Pillar Training Room and let us guide you."

Pei Xuan added that.

A small number of students hesitated, seemingly weighing the pros and cons.

But that had nothing to do with Su Yuan anymore. He could not wait to enter a Light-Pillar Training Room.

Ye Ling was the same, looking eager to train as he entered a Light-Pillar Training Room early.

Once inside, Su Yuan looked around and found the space quite large, enough for him to use the Thunder-Chasing Spear freely.

More importantly, the Light-Pillar Training Room even had a weapon rack. The moment Su Yuan entered, he saw all kinds of weapons.

"Excellent."

Su Yuan walked over to the weapon rack, picked up a spear, and prepared to train.

The instant Su Yuan took up the spear, his aura changed completely. His whole body became unstoppable, brimming with sharpness.

As the spear danced in his hands, Su Yuan's gaze was focused. Lightning flickered at the spear tip, as though it wanted to pierce the air.

Outside, Pei Xuan and the other three teachers sat separately, quietly watching the thirty Light-Pillar Training Rooms.

An hour later, half of the Light-Pillar Training Rooms had dimmed by half.

Two hours later, fifteen Light-Pillar Training Rooms had gone completely dark.

Three hours later, only two of the thirty Light-Pillar Training Rooms remained.

One had dimmed by eighty-five percent, while the other had dimmed by ninety-nine percent.

"Only Su Yuan and Ye Ling haven't come out. Those two have been training for a really long time."

"Yeah. Ye Ling is one thing, but how can Su Yuan endure for so long? Even Chu Tianche could only last two and a half hours."

"Could Su Yuan be slacking off in there?"

"That's possible..."

Several students had long since taken Intermediate Recovery Potions and were whispering among themselves nearby.

"The Light-Pillar Training Room has its own evaluation standards. Only by fully devoting yourself to training and putting your full strength into every strike can you make it dim."

"If someone slacks off instead of training, even resting for a single second, the dimmed portion of the pillar will refill and regain its glow, remaining exactly as it was before."

The moment Wang Zheng said that, embarrassment flashed across those students' faces, and they did not dare say another word.

After coming out, they had noticed that Su Yuan's Light-Pillar Training Room had been dimming at a slow but steady pace, and the dimmed portion had never refilled.

What did that mean? It meant Su Yuan's stamina, strength, endurance, and other attributes were beyond imagination.

Huang Yi'an stood to the side with his gaze lowered, lost in thought.

He was growing more and more shocked. As the Qianshan Class's lessons gradually unfolded, Su Yuan's potential was slowly being revealed.

In terms of sustained full-force training, Su Yuan could actually compare with Ye Ling. Huang Yi'an had still underestimated him.

If Su Yuan's Blood Qi Value were a little higher, the upper ranks of their faction probably would not be able to sit still.

Yuan Gang was Director Yuan, the director Su Yuan had encountered when he first entered Qianshan No. 1 High School.

He had not seen Su Yuan repel Bai Zhenhao. Otherwise, the news that Su Yuan had been hiding his strength would have long spread through Song Ping's faction.

Another half hour passed, and Ye Ling's Light-Pillar Training Room went completely dark.

Ye Ling walked out of the Light-Pillar Training Room with heavy steps. His clothes were thoroughly soaked in sweat, and he looked completely drained.

Suddenly.

From the corner of his eye, Ye Ling caught sight of the third Light-Pillar Training Room to his left, and his gaze abruptly froze.

"Someone still hasn't come out of a Light-Pillar Training Room?"

Ye Ling seemed unable to believe it as he hurriedly looked straight at Chu Tianche and asked.

Chu Tianche's expression was somewhat strange. He had not expected anyone to surpass Ye Ling in training duration.

Faced with Ye Ling's question, Chu Tianche was silent for a moment before saying,

"Su Yuan."

"Su Yuan is still training. He hasn't come out."

"Su Yuan?" Ye Ling's mind was in disarray. He considered his willpower extraordinary, and the limit of each training session had always been around three and a half hours.

Every move was done at full strength, with no room held back.

It was precisely this ruthless attitude toward himself that had made him who he was today.

At a glance, Su Yuan's Light-Pillar Training Room had only dimmed by ninety percent. It would still take a long time before it went fully dark.

What was going on?

Could Su Yuan have been slacking off inside?

Just as he was about to voice his doubts, Pei Xuan spoke first.

"From the start until now, Su Yuan has trained at full force for three hours and thirty-three minutes."

"Without interruption."

The words set off raging waves in Ye Ling's heart, and he could not calm down for a long time.

Someone in Qianshan District had actually surpassed him in training duration, and it was a weakling whose Blood Qi Value was not even half his own.

Could it be that the martial skill or breathing technique he trained was too simple?

But even the simplest basic breathing technique should not allow someone to train for so long.

For the first time, Ye Ling firmly remembered the name Su Yuan.

Taking the Intermediate Recovery Potion Chu Tianche handed him, Ye Ling stared fixedly at Su Yuan's Light-Pillar Training Room, wanting to know just how long he could last.

Time slowly passed, and another hour went by.

Su Yuan's Light-Pillar Training Room was stuck at ninety-nine percent, stubbornly refusing to go completely dark.

Everyone, including Pei Xuan and the other three teachers, felt their scalps go numb.

Was this the limit a human could endure?

Amid everyone's numb stares and the agonizingly slow passage of time, Su Yuan's Light-Pillar Training Room finally went completely dark.

Su Yuan forced his exhausted body out of the Light-Pillar Training Room. His eyelids were fighting each other, and he desperately wanted to lie down on the floor and sleep.

However, relying on his incredible willpower, Su Yuan slowly made his way to Lin Jie's side.

Seeing this, Lin Jie hurriedly moved to support him.

"No."

But Su Yuan immediately stopped him and continued standing straight where he was.

"Gulp."

Bai Zhenhao's heart trembled. Ever since Ye Ling came out, he had silently been calculating how long Su Yuan had lasted.

Five hours and forty-two minutes!

That monster Su Yuan had endured for that long!

Pei Xuan silently glanced at the timer on his phone.

Five hours and forty-two minutes.

It was not even a minute off Bai Zhenhao's estimate.

"Su Yuan, do you need an Intermediate Recovery Potion?"

Pei Xuan could no longer hold back. In a flash, he appeared in front of Su Yuan and asked with concern.

"No."

Su Yuan's answer to Pei Xuan was still the same two words.

"Alright."

Pei Xuan did not try to persuade him, but judging by Su Yuan's exhaustion, he probably would not recover without at least half a day of rest.

Twenty minutes later, there was still the final class of the day.

As the last one to come out, Su Yuan was at the greatest disadvantage.

The others had more or less taken Intermediate Recovery Potions and rested for one or two hours. Su Yuan had only twenty minutes to rest.

When evening came, the most important class would still be waiting for them.

Without relying on an Intermediate Recovery Potion, could Su Yuan really hold on?

"Rest where you are for thirty minutes. Then the final class of the day will begin."

Remembering Li Youfeng's instructions, Pei Xuan directly broke the rules and gave them ten extra minutes of rest.

Hopefully, Su Yuan could hold on.
