The next day, all the students who had passed the selection process arrived in the assembly hall, dressed in their exclusive outfits.
This time, the scenario of leaving them hanging at the beginning didn’t play out again. The six Tower Masters and six instructors were all there early, even Luo Xiang stood seriously behind several Tower Masters.
Seeing this, all the students also wiped the smiles off their faces and quickly fell into line.
Zhao Futu, looking at the sixty-odd students below, nodded and said, “Congratulations once again on successfully becoming special trainees. From today onwards, you will receive comprehensive training from the six instructors. I believe it will be an unforgettable experience for you.”
Then, Zhao Futu glanced at the other Tower Masters and said, “By the way, we, the six Tower Masters, will invite some of you to join the Six Tower based on your performance going forward. So, please do give it your all.”
“Well then, I wish you all the best in your training.”
With that, Zhao Futu was the first to disappear, and the other five Tower Masters also left one after the other. They weren’t keen to have a long conversation, but the students didn’t mind.
All their attention was now focused on another matter.
Joining the Six Tower!
Seeing the six Tower Masters appearing together and thinking that they were going to listen to a long monologue from Zhao Futu, Bai Qi was taken aback. He quietly asked Bai Qiucha beside him, “Is Chairman Zhao always so concise? Don’t the other Tower Masters have anything to say?”
Bai Qi clearly remembered that on every school opening ceremony, the principal and a host of other leaders would take an hour or more to speak, not wrap things up as hastily as Zhao Futu.
Bai Qiucha nodded and said, “The Chairman has always been like this. Moreover, didn’t Instructor Leng say everything that needed to be said yesterday? The appearance of the six Tower Masters today was just a formality. They showed up for the official opening ceremony of the training.”
“After all, the six Tower Masters are all very busy.”
It seemed true.
Bai Qi couldn’t help but think of how Xiang Li, the Master of the Holy Relic Tower, delegated the task of selecting legendary-level resources to someone else. They did indeed seem busy.
“I think my dad looks pretty idle…”
Hearing their conversation, Bai Yuxiao suddenly chimed in. Bai Qi turned his head to look at him, only to see that Bai Yuxiao had turned his head away.
This fellow couldn’t still be brooding over being defeated yesterday, could he?
“Ahem!”
Witnessing the students’ animated discussions, Leng Feifei cleared her throat lightly, and the hall quieted down immediately, with everyone looking in Leng Feifei’s direction.
“I know you are congratulating yourselves for passing the test, but I must tell you, you won’t think that way for long.”
Leng Feifei swept her gaze over the more than sixty remaining students and pointed at Luo Xiang and the others beside her, saying, “There’s no need for me to introduce myself. Now, let me introduce the instructors who will be training you for the next six months.”
“Luo Xiang, Master of the Sunrise Level, responsible for Rune Learning.”
“Zhang Shan, Master of the Sunrise Level, responsible for Combat Training.”
“Xiao Zhang, Master of the Sunrise Level, responsible for Resource Management.”
“Kong Huan, Master of the Sunrise Level, responsible for Ferocious Beast Theory.”
“Lv Lin, Master of the Sunrise Level, responsible for Beast Breeding.”
Leng Feifei paused, then added, “Of course, each instructor has a different teaching style, so I hope you all prepare yourselves.”
As soon as Leng Feifei said this, everyone instinctively looked at Luo Xiang.
Indeed, he was supposed to be the instructor for Rune Learning, a theoretical subject, yet he had turned it into an escape room scenario. Was that something a normal person would do?
“Now, I will announce the official training rules.”
Leng Feifei glanced at Zhang Shan, who immediately understood and pressed a button in his hand. A lengthy document was then projected onto the wall of the assembly hall.
“These are the rules you must follow during your training, even if you are fortunate enough to join the Six Tower after the screening.”
“Anyone who violates these will be sent directly to the Schizonepeta Tower.”
Bai Qi looked at the document, which was still scrolling, and saw that there were already hundreds of rules visible. Including the unseen part, there were probably more than a thousand.
So many rules, were they worried that the Schizonepeta Tower would be too quiet?
“Sister Zhou, have you memorized all of this?”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan immediately shook her head and said, “If I must memorize this, I’d rather be locked up in the Schizonepeta Tower.”
Well, that was indeed her style.
After asking Zhou Yan, Bai Qi looked at Bai Qiucha and Bai Yuxiao.
“Don’t bother. I had memorized all these things by the time I was in third grade.”
Without waiting for Bai Qi to speak, Bai Yuxiao immediately sneered, “Instead, you should hurry up and memorize them, or you’ll be in for a rough time.”
This kid was really asking for a beating!
Bai Qi’s eye twitched slightly, ignoring Bai Yuxiao. Seeing the students starting to talk again, Leng Feifei immediately signaled for everyone to be quiet.
“There’s no need to rush, you’ll memorize them sooner or later. Let’s start today’s training.”
As soon as her words fell, the wooden door that seemed to connect to the various worlds opened again, revealing the familiar passage to all the students. Running again?
The students looked at each other, thinking that the official training would involve some special exercises. Were things still going to be like this?
“I should add that during the upcoming training, you’re not allowed to carry any space-related equipment. However, this doesn’t include pets from the Space Department.”
As soon as Leng Feifei said this, everyone immediately turned to look at Bai Qi.
This rule was surely set against Bai Qi…
It definitely was!
Thinking of how Bai Qi couldn’t rely on the plethora of mechanical weapons stored in his Secret Realm Ring anymore to turn guerrilla warfare into a valley defense battle, a group of people led by Qiao Li and Ran Xu felt incredibly satisfied.
“No more bringing the Secret Realm Ring huh…”
Bai Qi, upon hearing this, momentarily froze, naturally understanding the origin of the rule. He looked at the wooden door in a trance.
“Alright, everyone follow my moves, this time you can summon your pet beasts.”
Leng Feifei was the first to enter the wooden door, striding forward towards it, and Zhou Yan, seemingly aware of what would occur, directly attached Soul of the General to her body and followed her through.
Upon witnessing this scene, even though the students didn’t understand the reasoning behind it, they imitated her actions, summoning their pet beasts.
Through the hardship of the past few days, it was clear that the instructor’s words and instructions could not be ignored.
Like the Rune Dictionary, for instance.
The ability to summon pet beasts…
Seeing everyone summoning their pet beasts conjured a strange smile on Bai Qi’s face, as he directly summoned Alpha, then took out some materials and tools which might come in handy from the Secret Realm Ring and stuffed them into Gamma.
“Gamma, remember, you can’t eat these,” he said.
Crunch crunch…
(But I am hungry…)
Gamma seemed a little disappointed.
“Don’t worry, you’ll get to eat later.”
Bai Qi patted the now nearly half his size Gamma, summoned out Alpha once again after giving it some thought, and then stepped through the wooden door.
“That works?”
Watching Bai Qi’s actions, Bai Yuxiao, who had never seen Bai Qi’s clever actions before, was completely stunned. It was clear she didn’t expect this kind of response.
“You’ll get used to it.”
Bai Qiucha gave a wry smile, patted Bai Yuxiao on the shoulder, summoned the Bone Dragon, and followed them through.
Walking through the wooden door, Bai Qi instantly felt a heavier burden than before, causing him to stumble.
“The gravity is stronger this time.”
Seeing Zhou Yan who was also struggling to move forward, Bai Qi knew that Leng Feifei must have amplified the gravity. If he hadn’t advanced to the third level, it would have been quite difficult for him.
Looking at the Beast Masters behind him who were complaining and struggling, Bai Qi felt a little relieved.
It was a good thing that the Evolution Egg could enhance physical fitness, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to endure Leng Feifei’s torment.
But Bai Qi still underestimated Leng Feifei. Not long after they started running, changes occurred in the corridor.
The flat ground suddenly became rugged and traps sprung up here and there. In just a few minutes, several people fell into traps and were eliminated.
With traps being set, ferocious beasts certainly weren’t lacking. The Bewitching Poison Bees that caused many people trouble before appeared from both sides of the corridor. Various spiders, snakes, and other venomous creatures crawled out from under their feet and attacked them.
“No wonder she asked us to summon our pet beasts, otherwise, we would have been sent to our deaths.”
Seeing various poisonous insects constantly emerging from the walls, Bai Qi immediately had Alpha clear the way with its dragon intimidation, and he closely followed behind.
Applying their pet beast’s intimidation skills, the remaining students started to get a hold of the situation.
Those who didn’t have a contract with lord-level beasts could only try to break through forcefully.
Nevertheless, some remained unaffected.
“I’ll go ahead first.”
The moment Yuxiao entered the corridor, she activated her talent-Dematerialization.
The amplified gravity and the attacks of ferocious beasts all passed right through Yuxiao’s body, leaving no impact whatsoever.
This fellow’s talent is so overpowered!
Watching Yuxiao move as though on flat ground through the corridor, Bai Qi and the others were filled with envy. Those beast masters who had the fusion gift or attached skill also followed suit, and their speed of advance increased dramatically.
Each and every one of them is way too much!
Bai Qi, watching the beast masters who were physically inferior to him, but who could merge with their beasts and quickly move away, couldn’t help but grumble.
“Doesn’t it just require a little creativity? I can do that too.”
Bai Qi smacked his lips, sending a command to Alpha. Alpha’s shape instantly changed, transforming into the shape of a sled.
Afterward, Bai Qi mounted Gamma on the chair of the sled, and had Alpha create a storage area at the back of it, completing the luxurious padded sled.
“It seems like something is still missing…”
Bai Qi, looking at the sled in front of him, pondered for a moment, then seeing the empty front of the sled, he suddenly understood.
Since it’s a sled, how could it be without a sled dog….?
