Chapter 1017 Passionate Online Battle

With a crash, a pile of blue and gold equipment fell onto the table.

"There are two blue-quality items, the Ironback Greatsword and the Shark Skin Water Armor, which you don't need. There's also a piece of golden leather armor, which is the same as your upper garments and you don't need it either. All three of these items can be put into the Heavenly Court's inventory."

Bai Pu gestured with his finger, "There are also five other pieces of equipment, three gold and two blue, which should improve your skills. I'll distribute them to you."

In the end, Wu Mingyue received three items: the gold-grade [Winged Tiger Leather Boots (Footwear)] and [Sand Scorpion Queen's Incubator (Accessory)], along with a blue weapon [Reinforced Tungsten Chromium Alloy Claw Blade].

Wu Qingyun took the blue ring, the [Steam Vanguard Ring], and only one piece of gold equipment, but it was the [Winged Tiger Twin Blades] that would greatly enhance her strength!
Gold-grade weapons with attack power bonuses can be considered minor gems.

These two winged tiger blades can increase attack power by 150 points. Wu Qingyun currently has 966 points of attack power, and with the addition, it could have reached 1116 points.

However, limited by the fact that gold equipment cannot break through the gap of lord-level strength, Wu Qingyun only has 1099 attack strength, which is the peak level of enhanced heroes.

However, raising the basic priority by even 1 point is already a significant achievement.

"Xiao Bai got a lot of equipment on his hunting trip to Babel Tower," Wu Qingyun said with a smile. "If only every Babel Tower challenge had such generous rewards."

"The equipment chest is only available for the first clear; it is not available for repeated clears."

Bai Pu shook his head and said, "Next time I challenge the Tower of Babel, I can carry over my progress from this time and go straight to room 3-3, or I can choose any room I have already cleared to hone my combat skills."

"Xiaobai, do you feel confident about clearing 3-3 now?" Wu Mingyue had seriously studied the information about the Tower of Babel. "3-3 and 3-2 are not fundamentally different. The monsters are both level 14. It's just that the final boss has changed from one to two."

Bai Pu said seriously, "I don't know either. If it's a boss that's countered by my fighting style, I'm not afraid of either of them. But if I'm unlucky and the two bosses I randomly get are the tough type, I'll most likely not be able to pass the level."

After a pause, Bai Pu continued, "After all, level 3-3 requires a payment of 500 spirit crystals. I'm not willing to gamble unless I'm absolutely certain of passing it."

Wu Qingyun asked, "Each room in the Tower of Babel requires spirit crystals, but what about the rooms I've already cleared? I need to pay spirit crystals to hone my combat skills too?"

Wu Mingyue sighed helplessly: "You didn't read the guide at all... It clearly states that for rooms that haven't been cleared yet, you need to pay spirit crystals in advance based on the floor and difficulty. For rooms that have already been cleared, there are no treasure chest rewards for challenging them again, but the corresponding spirit crystal cost will be reduced by 90%."

Wu Qingyun did the math: "If Xiaobai challenges room 3-2 again, will he have to pay 40 spirit crystals? That training fee is too expensive."

Bai Pu smiled slightly: "There's a reason why it's expensive. The battles inside the Tower of Babel are completely realistic. Dying inside the Tower of Babel is real death, but the challenger can stop at any time. Many evolvers enjoy the thrill of being on the brink of life and death, as it speeds up the accumulation of True Meaning and can even help them break through to the True Meaning Realm."

Wu Mingyue said, "Not everyone has a perfect combat training ground like Xiaobai's 'Void Realm True Image,' so we should cherish it."

"Of course I cherish it! I've spent much longer on meditation training than you have, Auntie!"

Wu Qingyun proved himself to be a hardcore gamer with his actions, "Little Bai, come on, let's continue our meditation training... I need to advance to the second level of True Meaning as soon as possible, and after I'm fully prepared, I'll go hunting at the Tower of Babel."

"I'm really scared of you... But cultivation requires a balance of tension and relaxation. I've just gone through a long battle, so I should relax for a bit first," Bai Pu said with a smile.

Wu Mingyue also raised her hand in agreement.

Wu Qingyun pouted: "Then you guys go relax. Anyway, as long as I'm near you, I can connect to the Void Realm."

Bai Pu swept her up in his arms: "You still want to run away?"

...The news that Bai Pu cleared room 3-2 and killed a level 14 boss spread like wildfire throughout the Gaia Network's communities.

The fact that Bai Pu was mostly dressed in migrant worker blue clothes adds an even more legendary touch to this achievement.

Luohua Media has put its efforts into pairing "Child of Light" Ellalos and "Exiled" Zoras to argue who is the greatest genius of the past twenty years. The article is detailed, rich in illustrations, and well-reasoned, making it convincing.

The main reason is that Bai Pu's performance was excellent; he passed level 3-2, which was even shorter than the previous two.

However, during the period when Bai Pu's live stream went black, people still seized the opportunity to criticize him, believing that Bai Pu must have used some unconventional methods to weaken the strength of the boss guarding the level in order to pass the level.

Those who make this argument are basically laymen who have never been exposed to the Tower of Babel and cannot imagine what the Tower of Babel is like.

Specifically, it mainly consists of fans of Ellaos and Zoras.

After all, these two prodigies have been ascending for several years, achieving many eye-catching feats and accumulating a large number of fans.

Bundled marketing can rapidly boost Bai Pu's brand awareness and make his insightful videos sell even better.

However, Bai Pu will also suffer some backlash from the other party's fans.

"Although Steelheart got the Lord template and had a great advantage at the start, the growth potential of the evolved individuals is different, and the starting template does not determine everything."

"Ayralos and Zolas are already level 15 evolvers, at the fifth level of True Meaning! What does Steel Heart have to offer in a pretense?"

"Steelheart's initial template was so good, yet his first attempt at the Tower of Babel only yielded results similar to Lord Elaros's."

So much so.

However, fans who like Bai Pu couldn't stand it.

Many of these fans had read the advertorials published by Luohua Media and knew that Bai Pu came from a humble background. They felt an inexplicable sense of identification with Bai Pu, and some even regarded him as a role model of grassroots success and a rising star who could break the rigid class structure of the Silver Heart World.

"Are you blind? Can't you see that the steel core is all blue like a migrant worker's blue? The true meaning is only one level high?"

"If Steelheart had the resources of Elaros and Zoras, a full set of gold equipment plus carefully selected dark gold equipment, and his True Meaning was fed to the second level with crystals... just based on the strength of his second-grade True Meaning, he would definitely crush those two."

"It seems that both Elalos and Zolas are striving to reach the second-grade True Meaning? So they don't have the second-grade True Meaning yet. Tsk tsk, with such an obvious gap, they still have people protecting them. They have no shame at all."

While the two sides engaged in a heated online debate, other netizens weren't idle either. Some even dug up and retaliated against comments made by Carlos's subordinate, "He Feng":

"Didn't you say you could clear level 3-2 with a steel core? Did you do a handstand and poop?"

"You went back on your word?"

The comments digging up the grave were piled up thousands of times.

The main reason is that "He Feng" has a certain degree of fame in the Silver Heart World, equivalent to a third-tier actor on Blue Star, a public figure to some extent. His humiliation is naturally something the onlookers are happy to see.
