Chapter 169: Chapter 101: The Bittersweet Training Ground

Barracks, training ground.

When Zhou Bai arrived, he found that many people were already at the entrance to the training ground.

Among them were several familiar figures.

Zhong Yongnian and Yun Juncai.

Especially Zhong Yongnian, although he was not part of the barracks, he had also formed a force in the territory, organizing his teams with clear roles: combat team, logistics team, gathering team, sales team... Essentially a one-stop service, with the Convenience Hall and the fresh food supermarkets being their products.

So, when it came to internal competition, they were the Kings of Competition.

Therefore, seeing them, Zhou Bai wasn’t surprised at all.

And they weren’t surprised to see Zhou Bai, either.

"Miss Zhou, you’re here too," Zhong Yongnian and the others greeted Zhou Bai enthusiastically.

"As soon as I got the message, I came over, but I didn’t expect you to be even quicker," Zhou Bai replied.

"We were just on a break today, and as soon as there was an update about being able to exchange Contribution for training ground slots, we hurried over," Zhong Yongnian said directly.

Getting stronger had seeped into their bones.

The training ground that required Contribution to access had to be useful.

This was seized from Beastman Territory, after all.

"Has anyone gone in yet?" Zhou Bai asked curiously.

"Yes," replied Zhong Yongnian.

Hearing this, Zhou Bai’s gaze also shifted towards the training ground, and then he got in line as well.

Before long, it was Zhou Bai’s turn.

Once inside the training ground, Zhou Bai immediately saw a row of training rooms.

In front of the training room where Zhou Bai stood, a person came out.

"How was it?" Zhou Bai asked instinctively.

The person glanced at Zhou Bai and shuddered with excitement, "It’s great, really great, it won’t disappoint you."

Zhou Bai, thinking of the scene of the other person coming out dejectedly, was skeptical of his words, but his curiosity intensified.

The next moment, Zhou Bai entered the room, and as soon as he did, the surroundings instantly changed into a holographic environment.

[Please choose Individual mode or Team mode?]

"Individual."

[Physical or Magic Series?]

"Physical."

[Duration selection: 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours.]

"1 hour."

[Please choose the type of opponent: currently available: Demon Beast]

"Demon Beast."

[Please choose the Level of the opponent? 0 to 10 / 10 to 20]

"10 to 20."

[Please choose the number of opponents? 1 to 10, 11 to 20, 21 to 30...]

"1 to 10."

[...]

After a series of settings, Zhou Bai pressed confirm.

[Settings complete, this simulation will cost 4 silver coins, do you want to proceed?]

"Yes."

There was even an extra charge.

But this small amount was worth it.

As soon as she confirmed, the place where Zhou Bai stood changed instantly.

She found herself in the wilderness, and before she could react, 10 Blood-toothed Demon Pigs popped up from behind, charging at her with their long sharp teeth.

"Thump thump thump"

Although Zhou Bai dodged the first wave, before she could steady herself, the second and third waves had already arrived, and Zhou Bai was sent flying, then...

[You have died, do you want to resurrect?]

"Yes."

This time, when she woke up, Zhou Bai was faced with 7 Blood-toothed Demon Pigs.

Similarly, she died again under the attack of the Blood-toothed Demon Pigs.

Death after death, and it felt like a hundred percent certainty each time; by the end, Zhou Bai didn’t even know how many times she had died. The only somewhat relaxed moment was when she encountered a single Blood-toothed Demon Pig.

However, after dying many times, when facing the attacks of the Blood-toothed Demon Pigs again, it was clear that her evasion speed had increased a lot. Most of the time, she would subconsciously dodge the attacks.

[Congratulations Host, after 200 life and death dodges, you have obtained the Flash Skill.]

[Congratulations Host, after 100 serious injuries, Defense +1.]

[...]

This took Zhou Bai by surprise.

In this training room, you could also acquire Skills through accumulated experience.

But the main thing was still the accumulation of previous experience.

Once enough had accumulated, then a breakthrough would come at the right moment.

And so, Zhou Bai gradually immersed herself in combat against the Demon Beasts.

[Time is up, would you like to extend the duration?]

"No."

[Your training time is over, please leave the training room as soon as possible.]

As the system notification sounded, the training room reverted back to holographic mode.

The simulated wilderness and the Demon Beasts vanished without a trace.

At the moment they disappeared, Zhou Bai lay on the ground, gasping heavily.

And when she got up, she felt a rush of soreness throughout her body, obviously, the simulation was artificial, but the physical state during the training was real.

After taking a moment to catch her breath, Zhou Bai finally climbed up from the ground.

When she opened the door, she was met with the curious eyes of the next person.

"How is it? Is it fun?"

Hearing this, Zhou Bai immediately perked up and calmly gave an answer, "It’s great, really great, it won’t disappoint you."

Then she turned to see that person stepping into the training room half in doubt, beginning to replicate history.

And after coming out of the training room, one could see that countless residents who had heard the news had gathered outside, asking those who had already participated about it, but basically, the suggestions from those who had participated were similar.

"It’s very helpful, really great."

"I even learned a new Skill because of it."

"I didn’t learn any new Skills, but my attribute points increased."

"As for time! The longer you choose, the better, you’ll definitely learn more."

"Later you can try the Team mode, there’s a Beast Tide in the Team mode, where the Experience will surely shoot up."

"Anyway, you really can learn a lot, all without risking your life."

"..."

Zhou Bai watched these people "deceive" others with all seriousness, a playful smile forming on her lips.

The pits one walked through were indeed more fun when more people stepped into them.

Although she died many times and the process was somewhat unpleasant, the effects were clearly significant; everyone should give it a try to experience what "painful yet joyful" really means.

Just like that, the training ground immediately became a hot topic within the territory, with discussions about it everywhere.

At night, when the Professionals and the soldier team returned from outside, they didn’t hesitate to throw themselves into the training ground as soon as they heard about it.

Especially for the soldier team, as a training ground attached to the barracks, it was even more accommodating to them. All the shortcomings of not being able to train in team combat during the hunting of Demon Beasts were directly compensated for in this training ground. That very night, Bayer summoned over three hundred people from the team, and in Team mode, they embarked on one simulated real battle after another.

The second Territory War brought a "population" and benefits to Hope Village, thus silently building strength within the territory, waiting for the next breakthrough.
