347: Chapter 227: Accelerate 347: Chapter 227: Accelerate The Flowing Universe, an A-level semi-plane that belongs to Ancient City University, isn’t very big in size.
If we wanted to make a comparison that’s easy to understand, the living area is about the equivalent size of three or four ten-story buildings stacked together, just like a small neighborhood.
But as the top semi-plane students can obtain, it’s already considered quite impressive.
The accommodation section has twelve floors, having gone through a relatively complete modern renovation, it can comfortably accommodate a couple of hundred people.
However, this “resource base”, acquired through so much effort, naturally has its unique features.
“Rule Facilities” is the biggest selling point of this kind of semi-plane, it could revise the “natural rules” of a certain level’s small area.
The Flowing Universe has two rule facilities.
The first is the most common “Healing Hot Spring”; most professionals need it to recover from injuries and physical strength.
For novice students, this is the most concrete rule building.
This one is a bit larger in size, actually, it’s an open-air swimming pool, complete with a hot water pool and a cold water pool.
Their functions are the sa, but the number of users at the sa ti can significantly increase.
With it at the center, a significant water belt surrounds the entire club residence.
On ordinary days, you can leisurely sail a small boat or contemplate upon it; this is where the na of the semi-plane cos from.
The other Rule Building is the “Library”.
Apart from storing and sealing various taboo books, it is said to be quite helpful to Scholars and their derivative professions up to a certain degree.
Including but not limited to “stabilizing the spirit”, “avoiding further contamination”, “gaining inspiration”, and if there is a high-level Scholar acting as the manager of the library, the full functionality of the library will be open.
Incidentally, Lu Ping’an’s courtyard also has this option, and its functions are much more powerful.
However, he can’t afford it….the initial construction cost of 2000 clearly shows its preciousness and rarity.
Of course, the “construction” of this semi-plane can’t be compared with that of Lu Ping’an’s.
In his view, this thing at best is just a Decree-level “additional rule for the world”.
The higher-level real Rule-level “I am the world” has no comparison at all.
But for students who don’t even have Decree-level yet, it’s enough.
Their strength is not enough to resist the self-correcting effect of the “Decree-level Rule Building”.
“What Decree-level, at most third-tier, it’s far from enough.” The cat gave even a lower evaluation.
But looking at the girls playing happily in the “swimming pool”, Lu Ping’an could only cough lightly to hint that a male is arriving.
After all, when they play in the water, they wear rather skimpy clothes, and they haven’t brought swimsuits…
“New mbers, why are they all female?” Lu Ping’an was a bit puzzled.
But the scene was chaotic, he didn’t have ti to think much.
For the sake of further work, he, as a gentleman, briefly retreated and waited outside for a while.
Once a blushing girl ca out, he went back in.
When everything cald down, it’s the other party who apologized first.
“I’m sorry, we didn’t know you were coming today…”
“Just call Lu Ping’an.
We are classmates, there’s no need to be so formal,” Lu Ping’an laughed as if nothing had happened…because he, anyway, had nothing to lose.
This semi-plane was the prize of the last competition, directly given to the Rebirth Comrce for use.
Now, as the school term has just started, other official mbers are too busy, naturally, they wouldn’t co here to rest…if they really needed to use the Land of Rules, the “courtyard” would be a better choice indeed.
Xue En did co once, but seeing that it was full of young girls, he didn’t co again.
This left vacant “sanctuary” naturally beca the gathering place for Ghost Club mbers.
Compared to the unpleasant living conditions of the preparatory class, this place is much better.
Just the feature of speeding up the physical recovery alone can place them ahead of their classmates.
The early lead will keep being amplified psychologically and practically.
When Lu Ping’an first invited them to beco Ghost Club mbers, he promised that the “club residence” was theirs to use freely.
Once they confird that Lu Ping’an was not going to break his promise, they naturally moved in….except for i Yuge, who stubbornly refused, she ntioned so confusing words about “sweet honey in the trap, what a brilliant strategy”.
They also knew that their position was relatively embarrassing.
They were clearly just making up for the numbers, but in the end, beca the only recipients of the “reward”.
Although they had been enjoying the benefits of the club for the past few days, they felt a bit uneasy inside.
Now that their “host” was back, the “guests” were caught as if they were holding a dance party at his ho, which made them feel even more embarrassed.
At that mont, the casual manner in which Lu Ping’an let it slide brought them relief and also earned him quite a few favourable impressions.
But as soon as he started speaking, everyone was stunned.
“….Do you all, want to beco stronger?”
Lu Ping’an had no intention of beating around the bush; he asked directly.
These few people, he did a little investigation on them, were all outstanding students from average families.
As it seed, they had good conduct, and their intelligence should be in a normal range.
For so matters, it’s easier if they just lay them out bare.
“You all enrolled for the combat profession class, didn’t you?
The basic hand-to-hand combat one.”
The group looked at each other, they didn’t know what he ant, but they responded honestly.
“Well, it’s a compulsory course, but our progress…..is quite ordinary.” Xiir, the mixed-race girl, nodded.
She seed to be very active in the small team.
“That’s true, it’s so tiring.
After one class, we’re all breaking down.
If it wasn’t for this pool, we wouldn’t have been able to stick it out.” Tian Xi, the short one with a long ponytail, frowned as she thought of her poor skin.
“The instructors are like devils.
They don’t treat us like human beings at all, always shouting and yelling.” Geng Xiaoling, who seed mature, raised her hand and made a devil’s horn sign over her head.
“Just look, our skin’s turned dark.
It’s only been a few days, and I’ve used two bottles of sunscreen already, my skin’s still all red…”
As soon as training was ntioned, they all started to chatter with a barrage of complaints.
In their courses, not only did they have battle-profession classes, but they also had to go through the compulsory road of ordinary university – military training.
However, the intensity and cruelty of it were definitely not sothing an ordinary university student could endure.
This was a real military training likened to special forces training, which was harsh enough to drive people to their limits.
Lu Ping’an nodded, he could understand.
Previously, these “pride sons of the heavens” were innocent tower life creatures.
Forget about experiencing hardship and bloody battles, they might not even have been scolded or beaten by their parents.
However, Ancient City University’s special majors aid to train professional warriors, or logistics with qualities of a warrior.
Their willpower needed to be tempered and polished to truly be useful.
Their bodies needed to be tornted and tested to bring out their real potential.
At the very least, they had to completely sweep away the notions of “this is a peaceful society” and “this is a civilized era” so they wouldn’t et an untily death on their first mission.
Of course, this was also a way to weed out so “unqualified products”.
There were no mass exits yet, only because they had just undergone a life-and-death test, and hardship was still ahead…
Lu Ping’an took a sip of tea; he didn’t intend to pour cold water on their aspirations, nor to criticize or look down on them.
Even though he also felt that these girls were still in a state of being ordinary students.
However, he knew even better that he didn’t need to listen to what they said, just watch what they did.
Ti would give him the most truthful answer.
Those who complain can beco reliable veterans, while those who seem strong can collapse overnight.
He doesn’t need to think too much about others’ futures.
“Any of you not planning to work part-ti in a battle-profession?”
Everyone looked at each other and all of them shook their heads.
Among the professionals Lu Ping’an had dealt with, except for a few rare cases, they basically all had one or two battle-professions…
They had to survive in order to have everything, the dead had no future.
Their hard work was also in the hope of quickly advancing to the first tier, becoming real professionals, stepping into a higher realm, and gaining more resources and opportunities.
“Have you chosen a specialization in weapons?”
Lu Ping’an asked, and received unanimous shakes of heads.
The curriculum of the preparatory class was much slower than that of an ordinary class.
Although they were currently exhausted, they were still in the “foundation laying” stage.
This devil-like instructor and hell-like training course were just shaping their physique and spirit, preparing for real extraordinariness.
Want to play with weapons?
First, practice running, drilling, jumping rope, and weightlifting for a year or two.
After understanding the situation, Lu Ping’an was sowhat surprised.
This progress was too slow, wouldn’t the first batch of first-tier professionals only appear in their junior or senior years?
“Starting from scratch, becoming an official first-tier within two years is considered good talent coupled with enough hard work…
It’s not that they are slow, but Lu Ping’an, you are just too exceptional.” Big Cat, however, spoke the truth.
Lu Ping’an pondered for a mont, it seed like everyone around him was like this.
Then, perhaps the bargaining chip he could offer was simply irresistible for them.
As he was pondering, his subconscious tapping of his finger on the table brought considerable pressure to those facing him.
When the dominant party in the conversation fell silent, the other party naturally beca quiet too, making the atmosphere a bit awkward.
But Lu Ping’an ca back to his senses quickly.
He nodded and made a promise.
“I have a way to make you beco a first-tier warrior within half a year, stepping into the real world of professionals.
But in return, I will be in charge of your battle-profession planning and training.”
The words spoken by Lu Ping’an, would be considered a wild boast by any professional with a little bit of “common sense”.
Let a complete novice without any foundation turn into a first-tier warrior within half a year?
Isn’t that catching up with the progress of ordinary professionals in an instant?
But wouldn’t the counter-intuitiveness be similar to the scam of “I, Emperor Qin, print money”?
“I’m not lying, contractors can’t lie.
My ability is very special, it greatly accelerates the growth of professionals.
As for the speed of growth…
you may not believe it, but three months ago, I was just a mortal, an ordinary person even less capable than you.”
What Lu Ping’an threw out was a bomb that shattered all common sense.
Without a doubt, everyone was shocked.
But Lu Ping’an took the opportunity to offer a more tantalizing bargaining chip.
“Three people.
My ability has a limit on the number of users.
I can only guarantee that three mbers will advance to first-tier within half a year.”
What’s more irresistible than good stuff is the limit!
“I can do it, please let participate!” The mixed-race Xiier imdiately responded.
“I can do it too!
I am a hard worker!
And my talent abilities are also very strong.” Tian Xi imdiately followed up.
“I…
I can also do it, no matter how much I have to give up.”
In an instant, all the private agreents they had like “girls can’t casually make promises”, “no matter what the club president says, we have to stick together”, “the club president is a contractor, be careful not to make a contract with him” vanished.
What’s even more irresistible than the limited quantity is the frenzied competition that follows after a certain number of positions was confird!
