Chapter 146 - The Forgotten Mystic Realm
Chapter 146: The Forgotten Mystic Realm
After a few days of hellish training, the surviving students felt fortunate and proud of their achievements. Their abilities constantly improved, and their knowledge grew increasingly deeper.
When the second week of the training program arrived, the students began improving themselves in the Mystic Realm. They were excited when they heard about the Mystic Realm training.
“We’re lucky this time. We all know how famous the elite training program’s Mystic Realms are.”
“There’s another benefit to the Mystic Realm training. The instructors will choose different realms for various classes to achieve better training results.”
“That’s good because there are higher chances of getting injured when training in a Mystic Realm.”
“That’s right. Although it’s not life-threatening, getting injured would significantly affect one’s subsequent results in the upcoming tests.”
Hearing the others’ discussions, the Guardians also started chatting.
“It would be foolish of us not to go into the Mystic Realm! Not to mention it’s a realm that’s most suited for the classes we awakened,” Alan sneered lowly.
“When I heard the news, I got so excited that I couldn’t sleep last night!” Baylon rubbed his hands together as he smiled brightly.
“Yeah, training in a Mystic Realm means we can level up quicker. It’s an excellent opportunity to accumulate power!” Mill was also unusually excited and couldn’t hold it in any longer and immediately wanted to go to the training ground to prepare.
“That’s also true, but it’s also a time where injuries and illnesses frequently occur. We must be more vigilant,” Bass carefully reminded Mill.
“I agree with Bass. The instructors will select the most efficient realm for everyone according to their awakened classes, but it also means we won’t be together when we train.
“There are people here with varying intentions in the training camp. We’ll inevitably end up training alongside people with evil intentions,” Moss looked at Mark as he spoke, “Please, be careful during training, guys. Stay close to the other students at all times.”
After that, Moss looked at Mill meaningfully.
Mill noticed Moss’s gaze and completely understood what he meant. She nodded heavily and responded with a smile.
Mill felt she was getting increasingly in sync with Moss after being close to him since they arrived at the training camp. It was as if the two shared an understanding.
Seeing that it was almost time to train, the Guardians exited the dorm while chatting and laughing. However, just as Mill stood up, a pair of eyes locked onto her.
…
It was exceptionally lively on the training ground that day. Numerous bronze doors, small and large, suddenly appeared overnight like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. The students broke into heated discussions when they saw the bronze doors.
“Leave it to the elite training camp to show off like this.”
“I reckon I can’t conquer all the Mystic Realms in front of us even after a year.”
“It’s truly dazzling.”
Beep, beep!
The students gathered under the sound of the whistle. However, Old Mur did not appear this time.
Flying Wolf looked at the time and said in a crisp voice, “I’m glad to see so many from the opening ceremony still here. I hope you can survive another week. But for that to happen, you must risk your lives.
“From today onward, you will have the best opportunity to improve yourselves until the final assessment. The 450 Mystic Realms behind me are open to you!”
“Wow!”
“Awesome!”
The students instantly burst into an uproar, and their applause was endless.
Flying Wolf cupped his hands and continued, “Since there are too many Mystic Realms, your instructors will select a specific one for each of you to train in and assign tasks to you.
“However, if you feel the training wasn’t enough, you can challenge higher-level realms based on your instructor’s suggestions to activate your potential further. Now, you can approach your instructors and get your assigned realms!”
A long line of eighty to ninety students appeared before each bronze door as soon as Flying Wolf finished speaking.
Flying Wolf could not help but look at Red Spider when he saw the scene before him. He asked, “Spider, who do you favor most in this semester’s training program?”
Seeing that Red Spider did not respond, Flying Wolf prepared to leave. He was already used to Red Spider’s coldness.
“B-666!” A brief and indifferent voice sounded.
Flying Wolf was shocked. He had already gotten up halfway but sat back down.
“That knight kid?! He’s only at level 15. He can’t compare to A-110!” Flying Wolf was flabbergasted.
“Do you remember Black Spider’s father?” Red Spider said with her sexy lips.
“Safin. He’s the one who set the highest record in the training camp when we graduated. He’s that level 25 knight. Of course, I remember him. But that was ages ago, Red Spider!” Flying Wolf frowned and looked at Red Spider in puzzlement.
Flying Wolf felt something off about Red Spider ever since she answered his question. However, he couldn’t put his finger on what was off about her.
“Spider, are you testing me?”
“Don’t you think B-666 might be the next Safin?” Red Spider said firmly.
“Don’t fall for the knight’s disease, Red Spider. I understand it’s been many years since a knight has attended the training camp, and if there were one, you’d think he’s the second coming of Safin, but B-666 still can’t activate his potential. I think even your record is an unclimbable peak for him.”
Red Spider did not respond at that time. She only looked toward the students in Zone B and left without uttering a word.
Flying Wolf felt embarrassed and smiled helplessly.
…
After Moss received his Mystic Realm number from Kevin, he immersed himself in training. However, when he checked the dynamic ranking display, he discovered that although his ranking had improved, it wasn’t by much.
That day, he completed two two-and-a-half-star Mystic Realms, three three-star Mystic Realms, and two three-and-a-half-star Mystic Realms. After some much-needed rest, he summarized the training he had done over the past few days.
According to Hank and Lloyd, knights had the easiest time activating their potential. However, after training in the Mystic Realms for the past few days, Moss could only activate a minuscule amount of his potential.
Moreover, he continued practicing the qi gathering technique Hank taught him. Although Moss could not master or use it skillfully, his speed and agility had improved. Still, the effects of his level up were not apparent.
Thinking of Hank, Moss felt he should look to him for answers.
…
“Thank you, Mr. Hank. If I have any more doubts, I will come to you again,” Moss bowed to Hank and turned around to leave.
Seeing Moss turn around to leave, Hank nodded with satisfaction, his eyes shining. Then he picked up his phone from the table and dialed a number. “Hello, is this Commander Murphy?”
“Hello, Hank,” Old Mur’s respectful tone sounded from the other end of the call.
“I suggest reopening the ancient knight Mystic Realm for B-666. I also want to collect data on his training. Would you agree?”
“Of course, that’s no problem at all! I’ll arrange that right away, Mr. Hank.
Hank was beaming after hanging up the phone. He quickly turned on his computer and found a thesis he had started decades ago but had yet to finish.
…
As soon as Moss returned to the training ground, someone called, “Moss, where did you go? Instructor Kevin was looking up and down for you. Hurry up and go to him”
Noticing Alan’s terrified expression, Moss was unsure why Kevin was looking for him. Still, he quickly went to Kevin.
