Chapter 438: Chapter 220: Training Camp! Qing Yu’s Challenge! (2)

"Oh, then I’ll just send it to the group."

"No, no, no, please, sis, have some dignity."

Qing Yu hurriedly said.

"Then... send a red envelope with 1000 Spiritual Points, if I don’t get the most, keep sending until I get the most, how about that?" Tang Ruobing said eagerly.

"I might as well just transfer 100,000 to you."

"You’re insulting me!"

"Ahaha..."

Qing Yu chuckled lightly and diverted the topic, "You all should be nearing the Tier One Limit in strength by now, have you thought ahead about how to advance and maximize your gains?"

"Are you trying to recruit us?"

Ye Mingqiu raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Yes, I’m from the Time Race. If you’re willing to join us, we can offer you the best support." Qing Yu replied with a smile.

"Not interested."

"Count me in too."

"I knew you wouldn’t be interested. The invitation just goes through the motions. You can refuse, but I couldn’t just not ask, otherwise it would look bad on me, right?" Qing Yu said.

"Mmhmm."

Ye Mingqiu nodded slightly.

"Your recommendation should be secure. Want to join me for some fun at the training camp? Although their resources are somewhat modest, they’re generous, and you’ll get some good stuff inside."

Training camp?

Ye Mingqiu was unaware but didn’t show any sign of confusion, just maintained a timely silence.

Soon, Tang Ruobing spoke up, asking curiously, "What is the training camp? I don’t think I’ve heard of it before."

From Qing Yu’s perspective, Ye Mingqiu is a mysterious strong figure, inappropriate to ask questions, which is clear to Tang Ruobing as well. So, she proactively asked Qing Yu.

"The training camp is a place where we undergo special training before successfully advancing to Tier Two. It has professional teachers to guide us on how to break through to Tier Two and maximize benefits. While the tuition is a bit expensive, it’s worth it."

"And what did you mean earlier by being generous?"

"In the training camp, various ranking lists are set up. If you can secure a ranking, you get special rewards from the camp, which is essentially what our tuition gets turned into."

Qing Yu chuckled with arms crossed, "The training camp attracts top-tier talents. These top talents all think they can rank high, getting a return or even a big win through the ranking. Even if they don’t, the knowledge gained and connections made are totally worthwhile."

"I see."

Tang Ruobing nodded slightly, then asked, "In this training camp, will there be any Legendary Level Spiritualists outside of Ladder Ranking?"

"Of course, the Ladder Ranking finds Spiritualists with the strongest Tier One combat power, while Legendary Support Systems can’t even make the rankings. By the way, I heard there’s a Legendary Support System in this training camp."

"Really?"

Ye Mingqiu felt somewhat surprised.

Legendary Support System Spiritualists are treasures to major forces, usually cultivated meticulously as they’re extremely rare. Top-tier Support is crucially important.

Under such circumstances, it’s rare for top Legendary Support to join a training camp.

Unless...

"Could it be... that person’s a lone wolf?" Ye Mingqiu tentatively asked.

"Mmm, it’s a rare case. Indeed, a lone wolf Support System, mostly acts alone, yet grows rapidly... that guy’s quite the fierce one."

Speaking of which, Qing Yu seemed lost in memory, with a slightly strange expression as if unsure how to comment. He looked at them and asked, "So, care to join the training camp together?"

Ye Mingqiu glanced at Tang Ruobing, who slightly raised the corners of her mouth and said, "Then let’s go."

"Alright, do you know how to sign up? If not, I can send you a link."

"Thank you."

"No need, no need."

Qing Yu said with a smile while standing up, forwarded the link through Spirit Realm friends, then looked at Ye Mingqiu with burning eyes, "Captain, during our last duel, my dagger broke, which is why I lost. Now I’ve found a stronger weapon! Will you accept my challenge again?"

"Sure."

Ye Mingqiu replied.

At this moment, he couldn’t sense any threat from Qing Yu, but that was normal too. If an Assassin allows others to feel danger, then that Assassin is somewhat failing. A truly powerful Assassin shouldn’t stand out too much.

So there shouldn’t be a threat on Qing Yu, right?

"Wait, before you rush to challenge, let me ask you a question. Is your dagger easy to repair?" Tang Ruobing suddenly asked.

Qing Yu showed a hint of displeasure, feeling that the question poked at an old wound, as his dagger broke last time, which was quite humiliating.

Now, he has an Overlord-level Weapon and is confident in winning, yet Tang Ruobing still asks if the broken weapon can be repaired, which felt somewhat taunting. Strangely, there wasn’t any mockery on Tang Ruobing’s face.

Was she seriously asking?

Am I really that bad?

Qing Yu felt aggrieved but replied politely, "Yes, it’s a special Overlord-level weapon that can restore state by absorbing metal, which means it’s not afraid of breaking or wearing out during battle."

"That’s good."

Tang Ruobing smiled reassuringly.

"...."

Qing Yu felt something was off, but thinking about his Dominator Dagger’s unique trait, he felt reassured. His weapon is specialized without any extraneous abilities, possessing only pure Sharpness and Attack Power, with top-tier values.

This weapon perfectly complements his Assassin talent of [Time Acceleration], allowing the simplest attacks to have the most terrifying Effect.

Now, even if faced with Zhen Yue, he has some confidence in breaking its defense frontally.

’Hehehe, I’ve strengthened this weapon to +12! I poured quite a lot of resources into it, and as a result, this Dominator Dagger, already powerful with sharpness and Attack Power, has now reached new heights!’

’Now, my power is fearsome, capable of slaying a top-tier Hero Tank in one slash. Even if I can’t defeat the Captain, I should be able to show some good results.’

’Show me your power!’

...

Martial Arts Hall

In the best battleground at Chenghai Second Middle School, Ye Mingqiu and Qing Yu stood on opposite sides, with a sparse audience of school higher-ups and students aware of rumors.

This was a battle between Legendary Spiritualists. They watched intently; the number of Legendary Spiritualists is extremely rare, and opportunities to witness such a battle even more so. Missing this might mean they never see it again.

’Such a strong sense of oppression.’

Qing Yu squinted, feeling a slight trembling within. Previously, he met Ye Mingqiu at Level 4, but now his Level has increased to Level 8, presumably with a significant increase in strength.

Given Ye Mingqiu is a ’Rebuilder,’ reliant on the Blood Spear for Basic Attributes, his post-promotion Attributes, while strong, shouldn’t be excessively overpowering (Qing Yu thought).

However...

Standing before Ye Mingqiu, a terrifying feeling surged endlessly from within Qing Yu. An intangible pressure akin to being crushed by the deep sea continued to grind him down, tormenting both his body and Will.

Why does this aura feel so wrong? Why is every cell in my body on high alert?

Cold sweat soaked Qing Yu’s clothes, dripping steadily from his cheeks. Despite holding adequate confidence, despite having an Overlord-level weapon, despite possessing the top-tier Talent of [Time Acceleration], he still found this moment terrifying.

"Come on."

Ye Mingqiu beckoned, a hint of bloodthirst flickering in his dark pupils, with a crimson, menacing Killing Intent swirling silently around him, forming winds sharp enough to rend the sky, spiraling endlessly.
