Swallowing the Stars: I'll Destroy the Universe with My Talent Attributes

What do living people need to say to the person in the coffin?!

At this moment, Qin Yuan set a small goal for himself: when he has the strength in the future, he will help his grandmother reach the realm of immortality!

Chapter 46 Nine-Story Tower (Please continue reading)

Hongning Base City, the global headquarters of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy.

Qin Yuan, who was following behind the God of War Yang Hui, was immediately attracted by the magnificent scene in front of him as soon as he got off the plane.

The towering buildings, with their futuristic designs, are constantly visible above the base city, where uniquely shaped aircraft occasionally streak across the airspace.

Compared to the Jiangnan base city, this place is closer to the future.

In the center of the city stands a magnificent complex of buildings resembling a colossal black dragon—the headquarters of the Ultimate Martial Arts Academy.

"So, Qin Yuan? Isn't this place more magnificent than the Jiangnan Base City?"

As soon as he got off the plane, Yang Hui pointed to Hongning Base City in the distance, his tone filled with emotion.

“Hongning Base City was established by the Pavilion Master and a group of followers during the Great Nirvana period.”

"This place is located in West Asia and was originally a region where monsters gathered. However, with the Gym Leader here, powerful monsters never dare to attack on their own initiative, and weaker monsters that come are just delivering materials... To this day, Hongning Base City is the safest base city in the world."

Yang Hui proudly introduced the origins of Hongning Base City.

When the owner of the museum was mentioned, Yang Hui's eyes were filled with awe, just like the gods in the eyes of mortals in ancient times—mysterious, powerful, and inviolable.

The "master" Yang Hui mentioned is none other than Hong, the strongest person on Earth.

Only 'Hong' could command such respect from Yang Hui.

In fact, not only Yang Hui, but many martial artists in the Extreme Martial Arts Academy have an inexplicable admiration and awe for "Hong". The reason for this is partly due to Hong's strength, and partly due to "Hong's" personal charisma.

"It is indeed magnificent."

Beside Yang Hui, Qin Yuan looked at the Hongning Base City that came into view and gave a fair assessment.

Although Hongning Base City is good, in Qin Yuan's heart, it still can't compare to Yangzhou City in Jiangnan Base City, because his family is there.

"Hey, let's go, the training camp is just ahead."

Boom~ Boom~ Boom

After getting into the car from the airport to the training camp, Yang Hui soon brought Qin Yuan to a spacious gate.

In the center of the gate is a giant dragon sculpture, entirely black, with a body fifty meters long, staring at the gate with a pair of dark dragon eyes.

Yang Hui wasn't particularly bothered by being stared at by the black dragon sculpture because he was already used to it, but Qin Yuan was different. At this moment, the hairs on his body stood on end, and he almost transformed into a 'spiny dragon'.

This is the oppressive aura of the black dragon. When ordinary martial artists face the black dragon carving, they are at most scared and their faces turn pale. However, Qin Yuan, who has the talent attribute of [Beast Intuition (White)], reacts more than ten times better than ordinary martial artists.

At this moment, Qin Yuan felt as if he had been thrown into a 1000-degree Celsius heatwave, his whole body seemed to be roaring, urging him to leave this place as soon as possible.

At this moment, Qin Yuan realized that the effects of talent attributes were not always what he wanted.

"Haha, Qin Yuan, have you been lacking wilderness training? Why are you reacting so strongly? It's just a black dragon carving. Apart from the pair of SS-grade (King-grade) dragon eyes on the carving, which are intimidating, there's nothing else about it."

"Oh? Look at me, I'm getting old. I almost forgot that Zhuge reported that you have a perception of external threats that is beyond the reach of ordinary people. That was my oversight; I forgot to tell you beforehand."

Yang Hui, who had initially mocked Qin Yuan for his lack of wilderness experience, suddenly slapped his thigh and realized something.

That was his mistake!

"How are you, Qin Yuan? Do you need me to help you up?"

Noticing Qin Yuan's intense reaction, Yang Hui asked with a hint of apology.

"Whoo~"

Qin Yuan let out a long sigh, suppressing all the feedback from [Beast Intuition (White)], wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and slowly replied:

"You don't need to for now. You'll get used to it after a while."

"Will this affect the upcoming Level B assessment? If so, I'll try to negotiate and see if we can swap the test time with the trainees who come later."

A hint of worry flashed in Yang Hui's eyes.

After all, Qin Yuan's performance was affected by his negligence, and Yang Hui would feel bad if it affected Qin Yuan's assessment.

"It's alright."

Qin Yuan waved his hand to indicate that there was no problem before turning his gaze to the dragon's body carved from the black dragon.

Each scale on the fifty-meter-long black dragon's body is a small display screen.

Each display screen has a name.

"NO.1 Renates Bridge (530321)"

"NO.2 Chu Qiang (540601)"

......

"NO.180 Robert Nittang (560325)"

The display screen shows a total of 180 names arranged from top to bottom.

This is the current number of students in the elite training camp.

Generally, after entering the elite training camp, martial artists will receive five years of training. Therefore, every year there are graduates and new students joining, maintaining a dynamic balance overall.

Of course, if you don't want to stay in the elite training camp for five years and want to end your training early, it's simple: become a War God and you can graduate early.

However, the trainees in the elite training camp generally stay for the full five years before leaving, because the training environment here is indeed far superior to the outside world, and the improvement in combat power is very significant.

Therefore, during their five-year training program, improving their physical fitness was secondary; the core objective was to conquer the Trial Tower and hone their combat skills in order to gain a greater boost in combat power.

"Qin Yuan, these are all the trainees in the current elite training camp. If you pass the B-level assessment, you will also become one of them, and your name will appear on this list."

"The higher your ranking on this list, the better the benefits you'll enjoy. So, Qin Yuan, keep it up!"

Following Yang Hui, Qin Yuan stepped through the gate.

The training camp is furnished in a retro style, with pavilions, terraces, rockeries, and flowing water.

Every now and then, young men and women dressed in training clothes would enter the pavilion for the first time. The aura emanating from each of them was much stronger than that of Captain Rock, who had the strength of a senior intermediate-level warrior.

"These young people are all formal trainees of the elite training camp."

"Look over there."

After identifying these young men, Yang Hui pointed to a massive nine-story training tower not far away and said:

"That nine-story tower is also called the 'Nine-Story Tower'. The official trainees of the elite training camp will conduct their daily training, studies, and special assessments there, except for sleeping and resting."

"The Nine-Story Tower is also the location of our assessment this time."

"Let's go, before the appointment time arrives, let's get your Level B assessment done first."

As Yang Hui spoke, he led Qin Yuan to the top floor of the Nine-Story Building.

Inside the ninth-floor lobby, there was a straight corridor with rows of large rooms on both sides. Yang Hui led Qin Yuan straight to the innermost part of the corridor.

Squeak~

As the door at the far end of the corridor was pushed open, a slightly dimly lit little house came into view.

Chapter 47 Level B Assessment (Seeking monthly votes)

slap~

Yang Hui reached out and turned on the light, revealing the furnishings of the small room.

There are only two sofas here, and on each sofa sits a helmet with a dark blue hue.

Knowing the plot, Qin Yuan understood that these two helmets were consciousness sensors for virtual space devices developed by human scientists by imitating the technology of ancient civilizations, and they had extremely high strategic value.

The entire elite training camp has 180 trainees, and these two helmets are used in rotation, which is why there is a time reservation requirement.

If Qin Yuan misses today's appointment, the timing will be difficult to control.

As long as he doesn't pass the B-level assessment, he can't be considered a formal student of the elite training camp, which is a very awkward situation that Qin Yuan doesn't want to wait for.

"Qin Yuan, lie down and put on the consciousness-sensing helmet."

In the dimly lit room, Yang Hui pointed to the sofa in front of him and gestured.

"Have you heard of virtual reality games? This helmet functions similarly to a game-connecting helmet, but the virtuality of this consciousness sensor is extremely high, reaching 100%!"

"The Level B assessment you'll be taking later will be in the Trial Tower in the virtual space. I've already submitted your information on the way here, so just focus on the assessment."

As if sensing that Qin Yuan might not easily accept the helmet in front of him, Yang Hui offered a few explanations.

Following Yang Hui's instructions, Qin Yuan put on the helmet and lay half-reclined on the sofa. The moment his consciousness calmed down, he felt dizzy and disoriented.

shuh~

Qin Yuan's vision shifted from darkness to light, revealing a vast expanse of silver land beneath a sky of cosmic stars.

In this vast expanse of land, only a seven-story trial tower in the distance resembles a wild and savage beast lying across the silvery horizon, which looks like an alloy.

The Trial Tower is about three or four hundred meters high. The tower body adopts a retro Chinese style tower design, and the walls of each floor are carved with different animal patterns.

Just as Qin Yuan was observing his surroundings, Yang Hui appeared beside him.

"Qin Yuan, do you see this? This is the ancient civilization-inspired technological creation that the elite training camp prepared for you trainees. It can perfectly integrate with human consciousness. Except for weapons, combat suits, and other external items that cannot be brought in, your marksmanship, your physical fitness, and even your combat skills can be perfectly reproduced."

"To become a strong person, to become an elite martial artist of the same or even higher generation, life-or-death battles are inevitable, and there is no place on Earth more suitable for fighting than here."

“Even if you die during the B-level assessment here, it will not affect your physical body in the outside world.”

Yang Hui, who followed Qin Yuan into the Trial Tower, looked at the seven-story tower in the distance with a sigh in his eyes.

It is precisely because of the ancient civilization relics unearthed by humankind that martial artists are able to gain a certain advantage in the war against land monsters.

Yang Hui continued his introduction, but felt something was missing. When he glanced at Qin Yuan, who was adapting to his virtual body, he knew what was missing.

Shock!

What was missing was the shock from Qin Yuan.

Yang Hui also felt that Qin Yuan had been too 'unconcerned with external things' throughout the journey, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Qin Yuan, didn't you feel surprised, and then realize how vast the world is and how insignificant you are?"
