Chapter 87: Soul World Training grounds

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Liu Feng butted in. “Soul World simulates the mother land’s Soul Land in its ancient times. There are many cities, risky regions, and war zones. You can treat this place as a game world and treat it as a special training grounds too. The simulation is extremely high here, where the lowest pain sensitivity is at 30% so you have to be careful here. If you’re careless, our real bodies will sustain some degree of injury as well. All our real-time figures and the data of our bodies are transmitted in here. That means that the stronger you are in the real world, the stronger you are here. At the same time, the fighting experience one can earn here is bountiful, which will help us a lot in the real world.”

“In normal circumstances, only Spirit Masters aged 12 and above have the qualifications to enter the Soul World but our Elite Junior class has special admissions here. At the moment, we are restricted from moving about in this small town and unless we have a mission, it will not be easy to get out of town. Only when our individual strength reaches an adequate level will we be approved to move around.”

Lan Xuanyu was in truth at a loss. Although Qian Lei and Liu Feng had gone through the introductions, the world was too foreign to him.

“Let’s go. Once you explore this town, you’ll understand what we mean. Everyone likes the place here, although it is considered training, it is extremely fun and new! When we have nothing to do, everyone prefers to come here. What’s more, if we were to gain some achievements here, there are rewards that can be redeemed in the real world. This town was specially established for our Heaven Luo Institute, and it is said that they spent a lot of money and resources for it.”

“Where do we go now?” Lan Xuanyu saw that he had been robed properly and asked Qian Lei.

“Obviously to train. There’s a training ground here. We should coordinate and get familiarised amongst ourselves!” Qian Lei laughed.

“Nice!”

The town did not appear too large with buildings stretched alongside each other between clean streets.

Under Qian Lei and Liu Feng’s guide, the three arrived before a building that had a sign at its entrance — Training ground.

‘This small house is a training ground?’

Before he could express his skepticism, Qian Lei and Liu Feng pulled him in. It was only after they entered did Lan Xuanyu discover that the building had its own dimension.

The interior boasted a wide hall with 10 lofty counters forming a line. The width of the interior was far wider than what the exterior of the shop appeared to be. A virtual world was truly different!

The three arrived at a counter. Qian Lei then said, “Sorry to trouble you, please set us up for a junior training scenario.”

“That will be one soul coin,” the beauty behind the counter replied.

“There you go.” Qian Lei reluctantly grasped for a shiny coin and handed it over.

Lan Xuanyu was shocked. “We need money here?”

“You can say that this is the most realistic simulation of the world. The Soul coin used here can only be earned by doing things in Soul World, by working, etc. Or you can even join competitions to win some rewards, or people can gift them to you. In any case, you can use the methods you use in the real world to earn money here as well. It isn’t easy to earn soul coins here as well too, so in the future, we will split the cost for the training grounds,” Liu Feng replied.

“En en.” Lan Xuanyu nodded his head.

“The junior training scenario is ready, please enter.” Upon hearing the cold digital voice, Lan Xuanyu felt his eyes go blurry. The three of them were immediately teleported to a wide and empty area.

It was a place where the spectator’s seats surrounded them in a circle, it even had muffled cheers coming out from it. After observing his surroundings, Lan Xuanyu discovered four steel doors along the four sides of the walls.

“This is the colosseum for the junior training scenario, we will be up against at least 50 10-year spirit beasts and 3 100-year spirit beasts. If we fail, we lose our coin. If we win, we will earn our coin back with an additional coin as a reward. So we have to win!” Qian Lei quickly explained the situation they were in.

“50 10-year spirit beasts and 3 100-year spirit beasts?” Lan Xuanyu was taken aback, although he had faced against 100-year and even a 1,000-year spirit beast in the simulation test previously, there were not as many of them.

Right then, the four steel doors around him opened simultaneously as low howls resounded in their ears. One after another, a wave of shadows rushed out like lightning into the open.

They were all meter long dog-type spirit beasts and Lan Xuanyu immediately recognized them. Lava hounds, a relatively strong dog-type spirit beast with innate fire abilities and their bodies blazed with flames as they sprinted out from the gate.

Lava hounds were by nature spirit beasts that stayed in packs and in the blink of an eye, over 50 10-year lava hounds had charged out and increased the ground’s temperature rapidly.

Lava hounds were fast and strong. Although they lacked in terms of long-range attacks, they were fearless and had flaming immolation that raged at burning temperatures. It was a challenge to face against so many of them!

Right at this time, Liu Feng and Qian Lei started reacting. It was obviously not their first time being in such a situation. Liu Feng raised his right hand as a yellow spirit ring rose from his feet and at the same time, a brilliance of white light flashed in his palm and blossomed into a spear.

The spear shaft was snow-white with visible scale patterns. The head of the spear formed a dragon head that had the spear tip as its tongue. It was his spirit, the white dragon spear.

Qian Lei released his spirit at the same time and summoned a yellow spirit ring that surged from his feet. Simultaneously, his pupils suddenly turned moss-green. The aura around him suddenly became bizarre, as though some unique energy undulation was being released from his body.

He flipped his right palm, revealing a gold coin — that was the coin of summoning.

The three assumed a triangle formation when Qian Lei shouted out. “It is time to test my character. Come, Gate of Summoning.”

The yellow spirit ring above his body brimmed with light as he threw the coin of summoning into the air.

Instantly, the coin unleashed a green light and enlarged in size. It flowed downwards until the ground took the form of a door. The entire coin unleashed the same bizarre energy undulation, causing the door to instantly turn into an abyss.

Lan Xuanyu turned his head and glanced at him while unleashing the silver patterned Blue Silver Grass on his left hand, where the leaves folded backward and wrapped his entire arm.

As though intimidated by the Gate of Summoning, the lava hounds charging towards them from all directions suddenly slowed down and instead surrounded the three of them.

“We will charge through in one direction first to prevent being attacked by all sides,” the more experienced Liu Feng shouted out before taking the lead.

An individual 10-year lava hound was not strong, but their strength increased in numbers.

And this time, Liu Feng’s speed was revealed to Lan Xuanyu. A brilliance of white light flickered on his entire body and he took a step out. His speed was truly incredible. With a flicker, he was already seven to eight meters away and he used the white dragon spear to flick an incoming lava hound straight into the sky.

Liu Feng disappeared again and appeared above the lava hound who was suspended in midair. He then slashed downwards, smashing the lava hound into the ground. He didn’t dare to think twice about relying on his momentum, he continued to charge ahead.

The battleground’s entire diameter was only about 50 meters or so, and just by two consecutive charges, he was almost close to the wall.

But…

He was simply too fast to the point that his charge instantly pulled himself away from Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei. At the same time, Qian Lei’s Gate of Summoning has been completed. Lan Xuanyu heard ‘meow meow’ and saw a white cat barely 20 cm long strut out of the gate.

The white cat probed around the instant it came out of the Gate of Summoning and upon seeing the incoming lava hounds, it screeched and quickly rushed back into the gate. With that, the Gate of Summoning disappeared, and the coin flew awkwardly back into Qian Lei’s hand.

“This…, I didn’t expect…” Qian Lei tried to explain himself defensively.

Lan Xuanyu’s expression was truly not too well, not too good. These two roommates of mine are my teammates, but they truly aren’t reliable! And they were not just regular unreliable people…

One was overloaded with energy and launches away without any considerations. Let’s not talk about the other one, to summon a little cat that even turned and ran, what is going on…

But their predicament left him no time to think because the lava hounds around were charging towards them again. Apart from a number of them that chased after Liu Feng, the majority of the rest were pouncing towards them.

Even a swarm of ants could bite an elephant to death, much less a pack of dogs.
