Jiang Fang originally wanted to give this newly recruited student a good beating. Although he had just arrived and had already defeated an older student, she also knew that the Elite Training Camp was a place where hidden talents were everywhere, and the students here were all geniuses among geniuses. They should not be underestimated.

Now, Jiang Fang couldn't bring herself to say anything negative about suppressing him. Zhang Junbao's understanding of combat seemed to surpass even hers as his teacher, leaving her with no opportunity for guidance. On the contrary, Jiang Fang desperately wanted Zhang Junbao's instruction. What kind of situation was this?

The only thing that pleased Jiang Fang was that Zhang Junbao seemed to have a strong interest in these ancient civilization's cultivation instruments.

According to Jiang Fang's introduction, Zhang Junbao learned that the usage time of the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber and the Trial Room was allocated according to the previous month's points ranking.

"Ranked first, in April, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for 90 hours and the Trial Room for 90 hours."

"Ranked second, in April, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for 60 hours and the Trial Room for 60 hours."

"Ranked 11th-30th, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for 6 hours and the Trial Room for 6 hours."

"Ranked 31-50, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for 4 hours and the Trial Room for 4 hours."

"Ranked 51-100, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for 2 hours and the Trial Room for 2 hours."

"Ranked 101st to the bottom, you can use the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber for 1 hour and the Trial Room for 1 hour."

"Teacher Jiang, is the cultivation time in this Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber only obtainable through ranking?" Zhang Junbao asked.

"Um, theoretically speaking, that's how it is." Jiang Fang's eyelids twitched, a bad feeling creeping into her heart. What was he planning to do?

"Theoretically? So that means there are other ways to obtain it?"

As you described, I just arrived this month and my ranking hasn't been determined yet, which means I'm basically ranked last and only get one hour of training time each month.

To get a new ranking, you'll have to wait until next month.

But this month is very precious, and I don't want to waste it.

"If I were to gamble with other trainees, with the stakes being time spent in the Gravity Chamber and the Trial Room, would the Training Camp forbid it?" Zhang Junbao looked around, somewhat reluctant to part with such a wonderful Gravity Chamber.

According to Zhang Junbao's ranking, he only has one hour of access to the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber this month. Seeing such a good cultivation environment that he can't use, Zhang Junbao pondered the possibility of increasing his usage time.

So he asked.

" Training Camp generally don't prohibit it as long as it doesn't involve the safety of the trainees. As long as the two sides agree on the stakes, it's fine."

"However, if the stakes are points, maliciously racking up points will be prohibited," Jiang Fang explained, already guessing Zhang Junbao's intentions.

"What's so great about gambling points? I can earn those myself if I want them. But the training time in the Gravity Chamber and Trial Room is something that can be directly converted into strength. What I need now is to quickly improve my physical fitness. Those are the real good things."

You want to gamble on the usage time of Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber? Are you crazy?

You only have one hour of time to use the Gravity Chamber this month. If you lose both times, do you know how big the gap will be?

"Teacher Jiang, according to the rules of the Challenge Room, using the same physical abilities, how many people in the Training Camp do you think could reliably beat me?" Zhang Junbao smiled and asked Jiang Fang, who looked completely astonished.

"Uh... this..."

Jiang Fang suddenly realized that she really couldn't answer this question. The previous battles hadn't allowed her to figure out Zhang Junbao's fighting techniques and how strong he was. And in the Challenge Room, with the same physical abilities, Jiang Fang felt that she might not be able to reliably defeat Zhang Junbao. She had lost her previous tests in a very confusing way.

The training effect in the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber is excellent. Ordinary weight training can only exercise the muscles and bones of the body, but the Gravity Chamber treats every cell equally, and the effect on improving physical fitness is far greater than that of the outside world.

In the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber, spending just two hours a day is equivalent to ten days of arduous training outside. No wonder everyone wants to obtain such a valuable resource.

Jiang Fang felt she couldn't quite keep up with Zhang Junbao's thinking. Among all the students in the Elite Training Camp, most of their bets were about money, and no one had ever imagined that Zhang Junbao would want to directly seize the time to use the ancient civilization's resources.

Soon, Jiang Fang finished introducing the Nine-Story Tower to Zhang Junbao. Opening the Gravity Chamber earlier was Jiang Fang's privilege as a teacher, but it was just for Zhang Junbao to experience and did not count towards his cultivation time.

After leaving, Jiang Fang, who was supposed to give Zhang Junbao training instructions, suddenly didn't know what to say. She only saw Zhang Junbao preoccupied with his own thoughts, ignoring her, and leaving on his own.

Jiang Fang smiled wryly. Who, really, is the teacher?

Students ranked below 100th only have one hour of training time per month, and Zhang Junbao felt it was better to reserve some for them.

Leave a way out for others, so you can meet again in the future.

The top 100 are Zhang Junbao's real target.

Although the Elite Training Camp is said to gather the world's top geniuses, Zhang Junbao felt it was too comfortable. This kind of Training Camp, which was conducted entirely in an academy style, could produce geniuses, but not strong individuals.

Which true powerhouse didn't forge their own path through mountains of corpses and seas of blood?

Since that's the case, I might as well be a catfish that stumbles into a sardine school and stirs up some trouble.

It's time to let these young people in the Elite Training Camp experience what despair truly means!

The next day, a rumor that shocked everyone emerged in the Elite Training Camp.

A Madman came to the Training Camp and started challenging people everywhere.

Jiangnan Pavilion, Shi Jiang stared at Zhang Junbao in shock, unsure how to describe his new junior brother.

" Junbao, you're betting against so many people? And the stake is your training time in the Ancient Civilization Gravity Chamber. You only have one hour of training time this month!"

Zhang Junbao nodded and said, "Yes, one hour is far from enough. I can't wait until next month when the rankings are reset to get more time; otherwise, I would have wasted a whole month."

Since the Training Camp doesn't prohibit it, I might as well just 'borrow' some time from others.

"But what if you lose?"

"Isn't it enough to just not lose?"

"Not losing?" Shi Jiang was speechless. Zhang Junbao made it sound so easy, but how many people in the entire Training Camp would dare to say that?

It's important to understand that everyone in the Challenge Room has the same physical abilities. This means that no matter if you're Wargod or Warlord in the outside world, once you're in the training room, you'll be tested on your combat skills and Force Application Technique.

While it's true that stronger individuals generally exert more force than weaker ones, this is Elite Training Camp, a place where miracles happen most often. Without a unique skill, how can you survive in Elite Training Camp? You'd be eliminated long ago!

"You want to gamble against those ranked around your level? Well, your power and fighting skills far exceed your ranking, so you might not lose at this level."

"No, I'm not interested in students ranked below 100. Besides, they only have one hour. It would be bad if they lost everything. You should always leave yourself some options."

Only the top 100 students have the resources to gamble on the time spent in the Gravity Chamber.

"And I plan to challenge everyone from the top 100 one by one until I reach the top spot. Don't refuse when that happens!" Zhang Junbao explained.

"You're even challenging me?"

Shi Jiang was astonished. Although he knew Zhang Junbao was strong, he, Shi Jiang, was a long-time top-five player in the Training Camp. For a newcomer to challenge him, it was hard to tell whether to call it confidence or arrogance.

Even among the ordinary Wargod instructors in the Training Camp, few dared to say they could reliably defeat him. Wargod Yang Hui, who brought Zhang Junbao into the Training Camp, once said that he was not confident in defeating Shi Jiang.
