Gao Wu: I have a dimensional gate

The base has five floors, which are the resource exchange areas.

Lu Qiu stood in front of the screen for a long time, searching, but still couldn't find the crystallization disease antagonist.

Anyone who hasn't become a martial artist is at risk of developing crystallization disease. This kind of everyday medicine isn't very valuable, so the base should have it.

"Excuse me, do you need any help?" The person handling the exchange was still the female college student from Shilu University. Seeing Lu Qiu's confusion, she asked him kindly.

Lu Qiu looked up and said, "Aren't there any crystallization disease antagonists? My lungs feel a little uncomfortable."

"Pfft." Hearing Lu Qiu's words, she covered her mouth and laughed out loud. "Classmate, it's obvious you haven't read the training manual carefully."

"The base provides all daily medicines free of charge; just let us know."

As she spoke, she took out a box of twelve vials of crystalloid antagonist from under the counter. "Given your physical condition, you should be able to recover after taking one or two vials. Just to be on the safe side, I'll give you a box."

"Thank you." Lu Qiu picked up the antagonist and turned to leave.

The staff member at the exchange booth kept calling out behind her, "Hey student, why don't you consider Wuhan University in Shiluo?"

Ignoring the envious glances of others, Lu Qiu walked towards the dormitory on the fourth floor.

Back in his dorm, he carefully checked the crystallization disease antagonist and, after confirming that all twelve vials were safe, stored the medication in his personal space.

His expression was somewhat complicated.

After the Great Cataclysm, martial arts and energy technology developed rapidly in the main world, resulting in a mature system for training martial artists and greatly improving the quality of life for ordinary people.

Ordinary people without cultivation talent can support themselves by doing ordinary jobs in the resource city.

The quality of life may not be that high, but there's no need to worry about getting sick or dying. As long as the resource city exists, every ordinary person can live a peaceful life.

In the other world, Li Chun and his companions, without a martial arts system to strengthen their bodies or a medical system to support them, still struggle on the edge of life and death even after awakening their innate abilities.

Chaos, disorder, and the survival of the fittest are the main themes of the world behind the door.

After thinking it over, Lu Qiu glanced at the time: 10:12.

I went back to my dorm around 6 PM to study basic pharmaceutical manufacturing. I watched the videos carefully three times, which took about four hours.

With 192 points, Lu Qiu couldn't afford a standard muscle meal, so he had to exchange it for an internal injury medicine as a backup, leaving him with 92 points.

The base canteen provides regular meals made from the spoils of the monsters the students hunt.

The best parts are used to make various standard set meals, while the remaining ordinary parts are used to make everyday meals.

The taste is so-so, and the improvement in three dimensions is also very limited.

However, the Flesh and Blood Furnace also enhanced Luqiu's digestive function, which could make up for the quality gap with quantity.

After eating freely in the cafeteria for almost an hour, Lu Qiu sat in a blind spot of the cameras and kept putting meat into his personal space when the cafeteria staff weren't paying attention.

They ate over 100 kilograms and stored over 100 kilograms, leaving the staff dumbfounded.

However, Lu Qiu's three-dimensional average was over 9, and his appetite far exceeded that of ordinary people, so no one suspected anything, and the cafeteria lady would even give him extra food.

"No need, Auntie, I'm full after finishing this plate."

Lu Qiu looked at the large plate overflowing with wild boar meat in his hand, and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

After eating his fill, Lu Qiu went to the training area on the first floor.

It's 11:12 now, and there's still a while before the hunting area opens, so it's a good time to warm up in the training area.

As soon as Lu Qiu entered Training Room No. 1, he found a large crowd gathered in front of him, chattering noisily.

"Is this guy crazy? He keeps chasing after pretty girls just because he wants to spar with them?"

"Exactly, can't you tell that people don't want to talk to him?"

"Is this all the people in a level three resource city are like? They see someone with awakened talent abilities and immediately try to climb the social ladder?"

……

Currently, Xu Wen is the only one in the entire base who openly possesses talent.

As classmates for three years, Lu Qiu thought for a moment, parted the crowd and walked to the front, and sure enough, it was Xu Wen.

One student kept bowing to Xu Wen, but as soon as Xu Wen turned around, he ran to the opposite side of Xu Wen and continued bowing.

An impatience surfaced on Xu Wen's icy face: "I said, I don't want to spar right now."

"Senior Xu Wen, I just want to see the power of A-level talent. You are my goal to catch up with."

The man walked around to Xu Wen and bowed, saying, "Please guide me, thank you for your help!"

"Haven't I already sparred three times? Aren't you all satisfied yet?"

The man's tone was extremely respectful: "I wish to spar with someone who possesses exceptional talent, to see the difference between myself and a true master. Please help me!"

With a buzz, the students who had been watching the commotion erupted, and some even urged Xu Wen to agree.

But Lu Qiu noticed that Xu Wen's face had a sickly paleness.

Like the Li Chun sisters, it is a consequence of overusing their natural talents.

She had already sparred with three different people, but this person was still relentless, clearly not the kind of "pursuit" the students were thinking of.

He was exhausting Xu Wen's energy.

After awakening her innate abilities, Xu Wen's three-dimensional average values ​​dropped below 9, and she has not yet recovered to the level before the training.

Without the ability to use his innate skills, let alone efficiently hunting exotic beasts, even fighting a wild boar alone would be extremely dangerous.

These despicable guys, after the head instructor forbade the use of unconventional methods to accumulate points, devised a way to slow down others' progress.

Please advise!

That person's movement skills seemed to be much better than Xu Wen's; he was always able to block her path before she could turn.

A chill emanated from Xu Wen, and the students watching took several steps back before Lu Qiu could finally see the person's face clearly.

It was the last one to return to the base yesterday, Qingtian Zhuangtai from Resource City No. 931.

Lu Qiu used the White Crane Step and stood directly between the two: "You are Qing Tian Zhuang Tai, ranked sixty-seventh? Come and spar with me."

Aota Sota straightened up, and when he saw Lu Qiu, his eyes darted around: "Lu-kun, ranked fifty-one? I accept your challenge."

Lu Qiu said indifferently, "A challenge? You're not worthy."

A hint of resentment flashed in Aota Sota's eyes, but he quickly put on an extremely obsequious smile: "Mr. Lu is right, but the three-dimensional average is not everything."

"Then let me see where your confidence comes from."

Xu Wen hesitated, but Lu Qiu shook his head at her and had no choice but to step back with the other students watching, making room for the two of them.

Within seconds, only Lu Qiu and Qing Tian Zhuangtai remained within a ten-meter radius.

Please give me your guidance.

The moment he finished speaking, Qingtian Zhuangtai transformed into a blur, changing direction several times, his five fingers forming claws as he went straight for Lu Qiu's eyes.

"Wow, that's fast!"

"Was that guy hiding his true abilities just now?"

"My god, even a level 3 resource city has such fast movement speed?"

Wang Hao, ranked 99th, has a three-dimensional average of 8.93, while Qingtian Zhuangtai, ranked 71st, has a three-dimensional average of just over 9.

The maximum speed with full three-dimensional mean is 30 m/s, and the speed with mean 9 exceeds 25 m/s.

However, Aota Sota's speed was even faster, approaching the limit of 30m/s, which is why it surprised everyone.

The White Crane Stance does not emphasize speed, but rather focuses on quick maneuvering within a small area and the application of integrated power in combat.

In terms of pure speed, Aota Sota may have already surpassed Lu Qiu.

Moreover, their first move was to attack the eyes, which was extremely ruthless and vicious.

If the eyes are damaged, although there are medications that can speed up recovery, the hunting operations in the afternoon and evening will definitely be affected.

Many people's gaze towards Aota Sota has changed.

However, the battlefield for the sparring was not large. This was Lu Qiu's home turf. He only slightly turned his body to dodge when the attack was still three centimeters away from his eyes.

As Qingtian Zhuangtai's attack failed and he was about to retreat, he saw a hand rapidly enlarging in his field of vision.

Snapped!

Lu Qiu slapped him, not with much force, but Qing Tian Zhuangtai staggered backward, his cheek swelling up at a visible speed.

"Baka!"

He cursed and lunged at Lu Qiu again.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Four times in a row, Lu Qiu's left hand landed accurately on Qing Tian Zhuangtai's right cheek. His right eye's vision had begun to blur, but he still gritted his teeth and wanted to pounce.

Lu Qiu raised his left hand, spreading his five fingers.

Aota Sota stopped abruptly and instinctively covered his face.

"Shall we continue?"

The students' whispers reached Aota Sota's ears, but he couldn't care less.

The plan targeting the genius students of Resource City 032 has failed; staying any longer will only bring more humiliation.

"I admit defeat, please give me your guidance." He bowed respectfully, covered his face, and slunk away.

The students looked at Lu Qiu with admiration, never expecting that such a master was hidden in a level-two resource city.

The top 50 students were mostly from Resource City No. 9, and those from Level 1 Resource City were already far superior to the other students.

Although it may not be outwardly expressed, that disdain cannot be completely hidden.

Xu Wen relied on her natural talent, while Ogawa Hideaki probably received all the city's resources to cultivate her, so they were somewhat resentful.

Sota Aota was the first to shatter their preconceived notions.

His ghostly speed was comparable to that of a half-source energy martial arts master, and he was just a student from a level three resource city.

Many people couldn't even imagine how they would break through Aota Sota's ghostly movements if they were facing him.

Lu Qiu taught everyone a lesson.

With his incredibly accurate judgment and agile movements like dancing on a knife's edge, Qing Tian Zhuangtai was defeated by Lu Qiu in an extremely humiliating manner without even touching a single part of him.

"Thanks," Xu Wen said as she walked over.

"You're too kind. 032 needs two top-ten finishes to avoid relegation, and you're a key player," Lu Qiu said. "You're too polite, that's why these guys are taking advantage of you."

Xu Wen paused for a moment, then clenched and unclenched her fist.

From a young age, she was strictly required by her family to undergo rigorous training with the goal of becoming a top-tier university.

Attending classes during the day, hiring tutors after school, eating according to the gram, sleeping according to the minute, being serious, hardworking, and disciplined.

Even when they treated me to barbecue last time, it was my parents who repeatedly told me to get along well with my classmates.

Aside from cultivation and rest, she had almost no social activities. She had a good relationship with Xu Fang, but almost no other interactions with others.

They had never faced this group of despicable people from 931 Resource City before.

Lu Qiu's reminder left her somewhat bewildered.

"Lu Qiu is right. The first person to challenge you should be crippled."

Another voice came, and the two turned their heads at the same time. It was Longk.

He crossed his arms, making his large, double-door-like pectoral muscles appear even more exaggerated, and smiled: "Martial artists speak with strength, not rules."

He glanced at Xu Wen, then his gaze fell on Lu Qiu.

"Her A-level ability is indeed very strong, but I'm more interested in you, Lu Qiu."

"We don't seem to be that close yet." Lu Qiu was a little uncomfortable with this overly familiar attitude.

"Hey!" He slapped Lu Qiu hard on the shoulder. "You were the one who blasted down a concrete wall on the roof that day, weren't you? You've mastered the power of penetration so early. I look forward to your performance in four days."

After saying that, he put his hands in his pockets, hummed a little tune, and left, his relaxed demeanor unlike any of the other students.

Lu Qiu's eyes darkened as he watched his retreating figure disappear.

Longke is very strong, even stronger than he appeared. When Lu Qiu was patted on the shoulder just now, he subconsciously tried to dodge using the White Crane Step, but he couldn't.

Longke filmed the direction he wanted to dodge.

This person's understanding of the White Crane Stance seems to be no less than mine.

Xu Wen asked in confusion, "You two know each other?"

Lu Qiu thought for a moment and said, "Not very familiar."

"The ranking challenge starts in four days, and I should be facing him."

"Are you confident?"

Xu Wen shook her head, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, smiled and said, "We can't just follow the rules and only fight if I can win."

"And whether 032 can avoid relegation depends on you."

After Xu Wen finished speaking, she went to the other side of the training room, took a training longsword, and began practicing her new swordsmanship.

Lu Qiu had never seen the sword technique before, but the moves were exquisite and should be a semi-source energy martial art.

Lu Qiu stood there lost in thought.

On the sixth day of the training, which is the first Saturday, students will be able to participate in the ranking challenge after five days of improvement.

He is currently ranked 51st. To enter the top 50, he only needs to win once to earn 1,000 points.

Further up, each win earns a corresponding number of points, which is currently the highest amount of points earned.

The base's resource exchange is gradually opening up. The C-level items in the list are still grayed out, but the points required for each one are several times or even ten times that of the D-level items.

Even for him now, the points he earns each day are barely enough to cover the cost of potions.

Moreover, as the three-dimensional average increases, the consumption of potions will become greater and greater, not to mention that the source energy guidance technique will be opened later.

Only guiding techniques can enable a cultivator's body to accept source energy and guide it into the blood, bones, and muscles. In addition, a considerable amount of breakthrough materials are required.

The lowest level of guiding technique requires 10,000 points and can only guide the lowest quality source energy to cleanse the body.

The price of more advanced guiding techniques was not listed.

However, given the base's straightforward pricing practices, 30,000, 50,000, or even 100,000 points are all possible.

I still need to work hard to improve myself.

During his sparring session with Aota Sota today, Lu Qiu discovered some issues.

Although it appears to be overwhelming, it actually benefits from the higher average three dimensions and a smaller combat range.

If the battlefield expands further, Aota Sota could wear down his opponent by stalling for time, and then deliver a fatal blow when his stamina is depleted and he exposes an opening.

Aota Sota was only ranked sixty-seventh, but Lu Qiu already felt that he was a bit troublesome. He still couldn't underestimate any opponent.

After thinking it over, he randomly found a training post and practiced the first move of Tiger Form Fist, Tiger Roar.

……

At exactly twelve o'clock, Lu Qiu turned off the alarm he had set in advance and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

A perfect Tiger Roar is ten levels of accumulated power, enough to unleash twice the power of a maximum exertion, but he currently only has five levels.

I tried the sixth level several times, but not only did I fail, I also broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

He can no longer improve his Tiger Form Fist by practicing on training stakes; he can only do so by hunting exotic beasts.

The other one is the flesh furnace.

After awakening the Flesh and Blood Furnace, his body was able to initially contain source energy, and his powerful regenerative ability allowed him to unleash the fifth level of power accumulation.

The method to upgrade the Flesh Furnace is still being explored. It is unknown to what extent the effect of the Flesh Furnace will be enhanced after the 2% on the panel increases to 100%.

Another point is that the meager source energy accumulated in his body can only be used as energy to start the flesh-and-blood furnace. He has no idea how to use this source energy.

The creators of Tiger Style Fist, Lin Yue and Lu Xiaotao, did not yet know what source energy was at that time. The manuscript only regarded it as an unknown energy and attempted to explain it using the scientific system at that time.

However, as his martial arts skills improved, Lu Qiu found it difficult to understand. Perhaps he should exchange for a brand new semi-source energy martial art as a reference.

However, accumulating points is the top priority.

He went back to his dorm, changed his gear, and was just about to leave when his phone vibrated.

It is the training student group of 032 Resource City.

The group owner was our old classmate Li Qiaowei. I don't know when Wang Hao became an administrator. He tagged everyone and sent a long message.

It includes the new allocation of exotic beast areas and introductions to various exotic beasts.

Lu Qiu directly flipped to the section on variant species in zone 2.

[Shadow-Patterned Leopard: A Tier 1 mutated species, 2.2 meters in length and 0.9 meters in shoulder height. Its speed is comparable to that of a Tier 2 ordinary mutant beast, and it possesses mimicry abilities.]

[Iron-beaked jay: Wingspan 4 meters, beak iron-gray, hardness exceeding D-grade metal, gregarious, capable of coordinated attacks through calls.]

[Stone-Armored Pangolin: 1.8 meters long, its entire body is covered with grayish-brown stone plates, providing defense comparable to a Class C combat suit, and its forepaws are sharp.]

……

There are seven or eight newly released Tier 1 mutated beasts, which are much stronger than the Iron-haired Wild Boar and the like. Correspondingly, the points for one of them have increased to fifty.

Lu Qiu had already planned to go to District 2, and now he was even more certain of his choice.

These alien beasts are all mutated from common alien beasts. If they can produce source energy organs and make resonance agents, will it speed up the progress of the flesh furnace?

Lu Qiu put away his phone, picked up his long sword, and walked towards the base exit.

The hunting area reopened, and students poured out like a tide, with a large portion heading towards Zones 3 and 4. After all, ordinary Tier 1 beasts wouldn't cause fatal damage under the protection of D-grade equipment.

There are also a small number of people in the fifth district who, although they have few points for low-level alien beasts, are no longer difficult to hunt.

There were almost no people in Zones 1 and 2.

Half an hour later, Lu Qiu arrived at the entrance of Zone 2.

This is typical terrain of the 032 Wilderness Area, a valley nearly 300 kilometers long, with the entrance on the edge of a cliff.

Thick fog shrouded the valley, surrounded by towering forests, with a huge river running through the center, dividing the entire area into two halves.

The security guard checked his identification and repeatedly reminded him to seek help immediately if he encountered any danger he couldn't handle, before letting him pass without hesitation.

Lu Qiu swayed and leaped across the exposed rocks on the cliff into the valley.

In the valley.

Giant trees, some ten meters or even tens of meters tall, so large that several people could hardly encircle them, intertwine and cover the area.

Huge, sturdy branches intertwined among the trees, and the shrubs on the ground were as tall as a person, making it difficult to pass quickly.

Lu Qiu wielded his knife and continued hacking through the bushes, venturing deeper into the valley.

Just ten minutes later, he paused, and a soft rustling sound entered his ears.
