Chapter 186 - 101: Revising the Martial Dao System
"PHEW!!"
"Thank goodness!"
"What a relief!"
The moment Zhao Jun finished speaking,
a wave of relieved sighs and quiet cheers erupted throughout the classroom.
The tense atmosphere instantly relaxed.
Being able to buy resources with money from the outside world meant they could save their precious points for the training camp’s exclusive items—the good stuff that money couldn’t buy!
Like those mysterious Cultivation Rooms!
That was where the true value of the points lay!
"Any other questions?" Zhao Jun confirmed one last time.
The students all shook their heads, their faces a mixture of satisfaction and eagerness.
"Good!" Zhao Jun said crisply. "Since there are no more questions, that’s all for today! Your dorm assignments and training camp access permissions have been synced to your personal communicators. Remember, your first official day at the camp begins at midnight tomorrow, and that’s when points will start being distributed! Dismissed!"
With that,
Instructor Zhao Jun wasted no time.
He turned and strode out of the classroom.
Even though the instructor had left,
none of the students in the classroom moved.
It was only seven in the evening.
For these young Martial Artists, bursting with energy and overflowing with Qi and Blood, it was far too early to sleep.
More importantly,
the points wouldn’t be distributed until midnight tomorrow.
Right now, everyone’s pockets were empty.
They weren’t even qualified to try out the Cultivation Rooms that required points.
And so,
the classroom quickly transformed into a large social gathering.
The geniuses from the various cities of Nanjiang Province began to move about, mingling and getting to know one another.
After all, anyone who could enter this elite training camp had the potential to become a prominent figure in the world of the Martial Dao. Building connections and expanding their networks early on was an indispensable part of their cultivation journey.
Lin Yi didn’t leave either.
He took out the special communicator issued by the training camp.
He skillfully used his fingerprint to unlock it and opened his personal profile.
[Student]: Lin Yi.
[Points]: 1000.
[Gravity Room Record]: Not Tested.
[Body Technique Room Record]: Not Tested.
[Combat Room Record]: Not Tested.
The 1,000-point reward for grasping Wave Intent had already been deposited!
He didn’t hesitate for a second.
He went straight to the [Points Exchange] section of the training camp’s system.
A dazzling array of options popped up:
[Cultivation Resources], [Combat Technique Secret Manuals], [Spiritual Weapon Treasures]...
Lin Yi’s goal was crystal clear—
A combat technique!
He had come all this way to the training camp,
and one of his most important goals was to obtain a more powerful Intent-based combat technique!
With a light tap of his finger, he entered the [Combat Technique Secret Manuals] section.
A massive stream of information on combat techniques scrolled past the screen.
His gaze sharp, Lin Yi quickly locked onto the target he had his heart set on long ago.
[Flaming Brilliance Spear]: Lower-Grade Intent-based combat technique.
[Exchange Requirement]: 3,000 points.
’It’s only three thousand points?!’
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat, his eyes flashing with delighted surprise.
The price was much lower than he had expected!
After all,
in the outside world, combat techniques that contained the mysteries of an Intent were practically priceless and impossible to find on the market.
Even if one did appear, it would be for an astronomical price!
He did a quick mental calculation.
He already had 1,000 points. Even if he only relied on the "basic living allowance" of 50 points distributed by the training camp each day, he could easily save up enough by just staying here for a steady 40 days!
Or...
if he could get tested in the Cultivation Rooms, display sufficient talent and strength, and pass a stage like the fifth floor of the Combat Room, he might just earn enough in one go!
’This training camp... I really made the right choice coming here!’
’Its value is far beyond my imagination!’
Suppressing his excitement,
Lin Yi opened the [Cultivation Resources] exchange section with a hint of curiosity.
[Bone Tempering Pill]: 1 point/pill.
"Huh?"
Lin Yi’s brows furrowed instantly, his finger freezing on the screen.
’One point for a Bone Tempering Pill? This price... is a little outrageous!’
Even though the training camp gave them 50 points for free every day, which was equivalent to a free 500,000 yuan,
using points to exchange for Bone Tempering Pills seemed like a total sucker’s move.
After all, you could easily buy one of those for 10,000 yuan outside!
And yet, an Intent-based combat technique like the *Flaming Brilliance Spear* only cost 3,000 points.
Outside, could you buy an Intent-based combat technique like the *Flaming Brilliance Spear* for thirty million?
Absolutely not!
You’d have to add another zero, at least!
Three hundred million would be closer to the mark!
And even if you had the money, it would be extremely difficult to find a channel to purchase it.
Just as Lin Yi was silently complaining about the exchange rates,
a wave of even louder gasps and discussions erupted from other corners of the classroom.
"Holy shit! A Bone Tempering Pill costs 1 point? This is daylight robbery!"
"Fifty points a day isn’t even a drop in the bucket for cultivation resources!"
"Are you stupid, bro? The instructor already said we can buy them from outside! Whoever uses points for this stuff is an idiot!"
"Look! Look at this! Golden Body Liquid! You can get a vial for just 20 points! It’s for medicinal baths!"
"Golden Body Liquid? What’s its relationship to the Golden Body Pill?"
"Look at the description! It says it’s a weaker version of the Golden Body Pill! The effects are weaker, but it’s easier to absorb and has minimal requirements for one’s physical constitution!"
"Damn! Twenty points?! Is the training camp insane?! This is practically a giveaway!"
"The Golden Body Pill? That’s a Fourth-Grade Pill! A single one costs thirty million! And the key is, you can’t buy it even if you have the money! Fourth-Grade Spirit Medicines are just too rare. Countless Fourth-Grade Martial Artists beg for a single pill and come up empty! Even if this weaker Golden Body Liquid only has one percent of the Golden Body Pill’s effect, it would still fetch an astronomical price outside! And you’d never be able to buy it!"
"That settles it! Of my 50 daily points, I’m spending at least 40 on this Golden Body Liquid! I’ll just buy my Bone Tempering Pills from the outside!"
"Shit! There’s a purchase limit! You can only buy one vial of Golden Body Liquid per day! First come, first served!"
𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Listening to the frenzied, excited discussions of the students around him,
the last trace of doubt in Lin Yi’s eyes completely vanished.
In its place was a deep, burning understanding!
He understood now!
The training camp’s points were never meant for buying "common goods" like Bone Tempering Pills!
Those basic resources could be taken care of entirely with money from the outside world.
The true value of points lay in exchanging them for rare resources that money couldn’t buy.
Like this Golden Body Liquid, with its astonishing effects and ridiculously low price!
And more importantly, it lay in using the training camp’s unique and expensive cultivation facilities.
The Spiritual Energy Room, the Gravity Room, the Body Technique Room, the Combat Room...
These were the training camp’s greatest advantages!
It was said that even building the smallest, most basic Gravity Room would cost over a hundred million on the outside!
But the facilities in the training camp were larger, more technologically advanced, and had even more terrifying effects!
An hour of cultivation here might be equivalent to several days of bitter training in the outside world!
’So that’s how it is... The points are the key to unlocking these treasures!’
Lin Yi clenched the communicator in his hand, the screen’s glow illuminating the fighting spirit burning in his eyes.
At midnight tomorrow, a new journey would officially begin!
He had to earn more points as quickly as possible, to experience those legendary Cultivation Rooms and to exchange for the *Flaming Brilliance Spear* he had been dreaming of!
