Inner division
Xia Fei had taken a day off from Qin Mangs. Firstly, he had to go to the inner division for twenty-four hours of special training the next day. Secondly, he had already obtained the Amber Ice Crystal needed for concocting medicine, so he needed to focus on concocting the medicine.
After arranging the concocting equipment, Xia Fei swiped his finger across his ring and took out a milky-white stone.
This stone had not been carved, and its edges were clear. It was translucent and looked very pure.
This was the legendary Amber Ice Crystal, and Xia Fei had paid a rather painful price to obtain it.
The last time Xia Fei won the extreme hovercar race, he had earned a total of three thousand points and that four-cubic meter spatial ring in exchange for this small white stone.
Xia Fei looked at the Amber Ice Crystal in his hand and sighed. He placed it on the table and took out the Luan Spirit as well.
These two high-grade medicine, one had an extreme cold attribute, while the other had an extreme heat attribute. The two were like water and fire, incompatible with each other.
Trying to combine these two medicinal ingredients with extreme medicinal properties required a huge risk, and the slightest mistake could result in a violent explosion.
This was the essence of Phantoms alchemy, always choosing medicinal ingredients that countered each other to combine, cleverly combining these seemingly impossible medicines to create pharmacological miracles.
After several hours of meticulous concocting, Xia Fei had an additional bottle of transparent medicine in his ring. Now, all he had to do was wait for the medicinal residue in his body to dissipate before he could consume it.
Early in the morning, Xia Fei, Chen Dong, Moon Song, and the others were waiting outside the dormitory.
Moon Song had been looking forward to this trip to the inner division for a long time. She had been chattering non-stop, her excitement evident on her face. Manjun and Beihai were the same.
After chatting for a while, a medium-sized shuttle flew over from afar and landed in an empty space in front of the dormitory.
The hatch opened, and two people walked out. Xia Fei took a closer look and recognized both of them. One was the leader of Team 13, Xiao Haili, and the other was the long-legged beauty, Ye Xiaohan.
Xiao Haili said with a smile, Xiaohan and I are honored to bring you all around the inner division. Feel free to ask if there's anything you don't understand. I'll do my best to satisfy your requests.
Xiaohan? That's quite an intimate way to address her, Xia Fei thought to himself.
Ye Xiaohan frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
The shuttle rose into the air and flew towards the western mountains. Ten minutes later, a stretch of white buildings appeared in the middle of the mountains. A narrow river flowed through the middle of the training camp, dividing it into two. Seven or eight bridges were erected over the river.
Compared to the Outer Camp, the buildings here were shorter, with the tallest being no more than three stories.
The most eye-catching was the circular building in the center of the inner camp. The building occupied a large area, and its exterior was smooth and bright. Its shape was round, like a pearl that had fallen to the ground.
The shuttle landed on an empty plot of land, and everyone followed Xiao Haili and Ye Xiaohan to a square-shaped building.
Not a single person could be seen outside the room. The large inner camp seemed empty and quiet, with only the rustling of leaves and the chirping of birds.
"You guys haven't had breakfast yet, right? This is the inner division's dining hall. Our first stop will be here," Xiao Haili said politely.
The dining hall was very luxurious. All the seats were spacious and comfortable sofas, and they even came with an automatic massage function. Eating and drinking in the dining hall after training was not a bad choice.
After a simple breakfast and a few casual strolls around the training camp, Xiao Haili and Ye Xiaohan led everyone to the eye-catching circular building. Six large golden words were carved on the building: 'Stygian Training Center.'
"This is the core of the inner division, the Stygian Training Center, the true essence of the inner division. We didn't meet anyone when we walked around the training camp a few times, and that's because everyone in the inner division is here. The competition in the inner division is very intense, and no one is willing to waste any time. Most of them even eat and sleep in the training center. Now, I'll bring you guys in to take a look," Xiao Haili said.
The moment they stepped into the Stygian Training Center, Xia Fei immediately felt an unusual atmosphere. The air here was very strange, as if it was filled with energy everywhere. Walking around made one feel excited.
"The energy here is very thick." Phantom poked his head out of the Moore Stone and sniffed the surroundings.
For some reason, Xia Fei felt a vague sense of unease. There seemed to be something strange about this training center, but Xia Fei could not put his finger on it.
Right in the middle of the hall was a huge, deep well, with a narrow metal bridge spanning across it. It was several hundred meters deep, and the circular corridor had rooms one after another.
Xia Fei did a mental count. There were twelve rooms on each floor, and there were fifty floors in total. This meant that there were a total of six hundred training rooms under this well, which could accommodate six hundred cadets at the same time.
"Back in the day, I, too, struggled here. I remember the longest time I stayed here was five whole months," Xiao Haili said as he reminisced.
"The inner division has prepared five training rooms for all of you. Now, you can all go in and experience the effects of a real high-level training room. After twenty-four hours, even if you don't wish to come out, I'll kick you all out one by one," Xiao Haili joked.
Taking the elevator down to the fifteenth floor, Xiao Haili took out five numbered cards and handed them to everyone.
Ye Xiaohan hesitated for a moment before she bit her lip and said, "Xia Fei, come with me."
Moon Song, who always liked to fool around, made a funny face at Xia Fei and whispered, "Look, someone's going to enjoy special treatment."
Beihai and Manjun covered their mouths in delight, while Xiao Haili felt very upset inside, though he did not show it on his face. He was still grinning from ear to ear.
Ye Xiaohan did not care about the teasing of others. She caught up to Xia Fei in a few steps, and the two of them walked side by side to room 1512.
Ye Xiaohan reached out and took the card from Xia Fei's hand, sticking it into the door and opening it.
"Come in. I have something to tell you," Ye Xiaohan whispered.
In this enclosed space, sound could easily travel. Though her voice was not loud, Moon Song and the others could still hear her clearly, and the few of them let out yet another burst of mischievous laughter.
Xiao Haili gritted his teeth, coldly staring at Xia Fei and Ye Xiaohan from afar.
Xia Fei helplessly walked into the room, and the moment he stepped inside, Ye Xiaohan slammed the door shut with a bang.
"The training room in the Stygian Training Center is very special. There's an abundance of energy here, which can continuously replenish the energy consumed during training, and it even has the effect of improving your body's functions. However, you must remember that you mustn't adjust the energy to the maximum in the beginning. You must do it step by step," Ye Xiaohan explained to Xia Fei.
"Didn't I already tell you all this?" Xia Fei asked suspiciously.
Ye Xiaohan lowered her head and pondered for a moment. "Am I being very unreasonable?"
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback, but he soon smiled and said, "To be honest, a little. It's nothing too serious."
Ye Xiaohan appeared somewhat disappointed. She lightly nodded her head and turned to leave the room.
Xia Fei circled the room, familiarizing himself with the environment.
The room was divided into an inner and outer room. The outer room was the living area, with a smart computer, sofa, table, chairs, and a bed. There was even a place for bathing.
The walls and ceiling of the inner room had circular holes, which looked a little like a beehive. There was a soft carpet on the floor, but there was nothing else.
Xia Fei walked into the inner room and turned a knob on the wall according to Ye Xiaohan's instructions.
The moment he turned it a little, a strong energy wave surged into the room from all directions, like an endless sea.
The energy wave was very unusual. It was as if it could penetrate the surface of the skin and penetrate deep into the human body.
It was like inflating a balloon, with a steady flow of energy entering the body. Soon, Xia Fei's skin began to turn red.
Spiritshadow tiptoed around the room a few times. As he walked, he kept observing the room.
"Do you still remember the Heart of Spirit?" Phantom asked.
Xia Fei nodded. "That thing we got when we explored Atlantis. I remember you saying that it's a pure form of energy, filled with the power of the universe's origin."
"That's right. I'm certain that this energy is the same as the energy of the Heart of Spirit. However, what I don't understand is how they managed to convert this energy into a waveform that the human body can absorb."
Xia Fei had once read in a book that energy was divided into two types: waveform and linear. Linear energy could provide power for machines, but the human body was unable to absorb it. Due to the special structure of the human body, it could only absorb dispersed waveform energy.
The technology of converting the linear energy of the Heart of Spirit into waveform energy that the human body could absorb was simply unheard of.
If this technology was mastered, humans would not need to rely on eating to replenish their energy. They could just directly use a piece of ore that contained energy to replenish their body.
Not only would this solve the problem of the low energy conversion rate of relying on food, but it could also greatly strengthen the human body's constitution.
"This is truly amazing. No wonder the Adjudicator Union is able to achieve what they have today. It turns out that they have already mastered such advanced technology," Phantom excitedly muttered to himself.
After a while, Xia Fei was already feeling uncomfortable all over. It was as if there were countless silver needles piercing his body. It was extremely painful and itchy.
"Will this energy help me increase my rank?" Xia Fei asked.
"Nope." Phantom very straightforwardly said, "Your body's functions have already been destroyed. This energy is useless to you. At most, it will make you feel full of energy."
Xia Fei was speechless, feeling somewhat disappointed in his heart.
"However, this energy can accelerate the movement of your cells, which is very good for your absorption of medicine. If you stay in such an environment for a long time, you can accelerate the absorption rate of medicine, which can also be considered as helping you increase your rank in disguise."
Xia Fei was slightly stunned. "Accelerate medicine absorption?"
