Chapter 119 : Chapter 119 : Geniuses
The team leaders first distributed dormitory nameplates to all martial artists, not grouping people from the same base city together, but instead mixing them up and assigning them randomly.
Each dormitory had four people. Lin Zhen and Zhang Yue happened to be assigned to the same building and the same dormitory. In addition to the dormitory number plate, each person also received a book.
“This book is called the Star Fruit Tree Survival Guide, and it contains information about the Star Fruit Tree. Don’t think it’s easy to live on this tree and collect Star Crystals. Even climbing the tree is a huge test. You need to understand and grasp the content of the book in the next few days, or you’ll suffer in three days.”
Everyone carefully put away the book, preparing to study it late into the night.
“You can move around freely in the courtyard and interact with people from other base cities. The dining hall is downstairs, and meals are provided three times a day. From now on, you cannot contact the outside world through any communication tools. If you want to make a phone call home, you can come to me.”
After Guan Shanyue finished speaking, everyone took out their phones and saw that there was indeed no signal here. However, there was an internal network for the training camp that they could log into.
“You can log into the internal network to learn about everything here. Each person’s account is bound to their own phone, so no impersonation will happen. You can explore the details by yourselves. I hope you don’t disgrace me when climbing the Heavenly Ladder because it’s not just me you’ll be disgracing, but also your base city.”
Guan Shanyue left slowly, and the martial artists from Ice City went to find their own dormitories, returning to their rooms to learn about the Star Fruit Tree.
Of course, some people did not immediately read the book but walked around the area to familiarize themselves with the surroundings.
Lin Zhen did not go out, and Zhang Yue did not know where he had gone. He returned to the dormitory alone.
Lin Zhen found the dormitory building where he would be staying, located in the northern part of the training camp. His dormitory was room number 208 on the second floor. There were four people in a room, and when he entered, two people were already there.
One person was dressed in a fashionable golden leather jacket with an explosion hairstyle, looking like a non -mainstream Five-level War General.
Another person was a medium-built, flat-haired young man, a Four-level War General with unremarkable looks.
When the guy with the explosion hairstyle saw Lin Zhen enter, he whistled,
“Finally, we have a dorm mate who looks decent. What’s your name?” “My name is Lin Zhen, from Ice City. How about you?”
The guy with the explosion hairstyle said, ‘My name is Ma Mingxing, from
Demon Capital.”
Sun Tie said while tidying up his bed, his chosen spot was a lower bunk, and so was Ma Mingxing’s, with the two facing each other.
Ma Mingxing looked at Sun Tie with disdain, “Hey, can you not choose the lower bunk? If I see your face every day when I wake up, I might not be able to
eat. ”
Sun Tie looked at Ma Mingxing with anger on his face, “Then where should I
“You go to the upper bunk, above me. This way, I can’t see you.”
Sun Tie was unwilling, but Ma Mingxing immediately clenched his fists,
“What? You’re still not satisfied? I’m not looking down on you, but people from Tianfu like you can only show off in your own home. In front of martial artists from Demon Capital like us, you’re definitely not a match.”
The two stared at each other for a while, Sun Tie finally submitted. He had just entered the level four War General stage, while Ma Mingxing was already a Late stage Five-level War General. They had a significant gap between them, and he did not want to cause trouble.
“Lin Zhen, you live in the lower bunk across from me. This way, I can see you every day and be in a better mood.”
Lin Zhen felt somewhat speechless. This dorm mate was a bit of a handful, but Lin Zhen never liked to worry about trivial matters. It was different everywhere.
Everyone brought their own bedding and toiletries, Lin Zhen also took out a
few sets of clothes and simple toiletries from his Space Ring, hanging them around the room to tidy up.
At this moment, the door was suddenly knocked open, and Zhang Yue excitedly ran in.
“Who are you? So rude!” Ma Mingxing immediately looked at Zhang Yue with disdain when he realized he was fat.
“Who cares who I am? What’s wrong about being in this dormitory?” Zhang Yue rolled his eyes, not giving any face to Ma Mingxing.
“Damn! You’re looking for a fight, aren’t you!” Ma Mingxing immediately rolled up his sleeves.
Zhang Yue didn’t back down, rubbing his hands together while speaking to Lin Zhen, “Lin Zhen, I’ll handle this guy with the brain that looks like it’s been bombed.”
“What did you say? My head has been bombed? Do you know what fashion is? This is the most popular hairstyle in Demon Capital. One look at you, a fat guy who runs his mouth all day, and I know you’re no good. Lin Zhen, I… Wait! You know Lin Zhen?”
Lin Zhen turned to look at Ma Mingxing, ‘Mingxing, this is Zhang Yue, who is also from Ice City with me. He’s not a bad person. Let it go.”
Ma Mingxing didn’t continue causing trouble, he glanced at Zhang Yue, “Fatty, watch your words in the future. If you don’t understand fashion, don’t talk nonsense.”
Zhang Yue replied, “If we’re talking about head size, you’re way fatter than me.” “You…you bastard!” Ma Mingxing was so angry that his eyes rolled back.
Zhang Yue didn’t bother with Ma Mingxing, and instead jogged over to Lin Zhen, holding a book like a treasure: “Ta-da! Check it out, idol. I got this.” “What is it?” Lin Zhen took it from him.
“Hehe, this is good stuff. It’s a collection of the popular individuals in this training camp. It covers all the talented individuals from various Base Cities, as well as the most beautiful girls. I spent 300,000 on it.”
Lin Zhen looked at Zhang Yue. The kid dressed quite ordinarily, so it was surprising that he was willing to spend so much money on such trivial gossip. Truly, one cannot judge a book by its cover.
“Let me see, I must be on the list! With my abilities and looks, I should be on there.” Ma Mingxing, upon hearing this, became interested and squeezed in closer.
“Nope, you can’t see. I can tell you; your name isn’t in it.”
Zhang Yue didn’t give in, instead using his large buttocks to push against Ma Mingxing.
Ma Mingxing was no pushover either. Since the book was bought by Zhang Yue, he didn’t have the guts to forcefully snatch it. However, he didn’t want to back down either, so he stayed put, using his buttocks to push against Zhang Yue. Neither one would yield, making it impossible to tell who had the upper hand.
Lin Zhen paid no attention to the duo that seemed like a comedic act and began flipping through the book.
The first page featured a woman dressed in white, with an aura as elegant as an orchid and a beauty as ethereal as a fairy.
There were also two lines written on the page: “If there were no Su Mingyue in the world, who else could wear white so impeccably?”
There was more information: “Su Mingyue, a disciple of God’s Grace Cathedral from the Capital Base City, is regarded as a saintess. Though female Martial Artists are rare, Su Mingyue is a gifted genius and a Level Eight War General. Some even say she is a born Divine Speedster, not even 20 years old yet. In addition to her abilities, her ethereal beauty attracts even more attention.
When you see her in white, can you help but feel she is your dream woman?”
The final comment was, “Number one on the list of newcomers to watch, Su Mingyue, a goddess of both beauty and power.”
Upon seeing this woman, Lin Zhen’s expression became slightly serious.
In his previous life, Lin Zhen had met Su Mingyue. As a believer of the Deity, Su Mingyue was regarded as a saintess. During the Second Cataclysm, she had even reached the Star Realm level of power.
However, the Second Cataclysm had made her see the true face of the Deity, turning her from the most devout believer into the first member of the religious sect to rebel against the Deity.
During the invasion of the Extraterrestrial Civilization, the Gods Clan was originally the target to be subjugated. However, Su Mingyue’s rebellion led to a large group of people in the Capital Base City fighting back, though ultimately they were defeated.
Su Mingyue died in the ensuing battle, taking an enemy master down with her in the process. The battle was earth-shattering, and Lin Zhen, who was in the crowd watching, had been deeply moved by Su Mingyue’s bravery.
Lin Zhen hadn’t expected to meet Su Mingyue from this time period at the God Generals Training Camp. He took a deep breath; in this life, without any accidents, she might still be on her old path.
After turning the page on Su Mingyue, the second page showed a smiling man holding a long sword. He wasn’t particularly handsome but had a good temperament, and it was clear he was well-cultured.
“Who else dares to wander the world with a sword? Only the lone chivalrous Jiang Huai!”
Comment: “Jiang Huai, the lone chivalrous man from Demon Capital Base City, is a Level Nine War General and Spiritual Mind Master. His unparalleled strength allowed him to kill an A-level monster by himself, creating a miracle at the War General level. He’s currently recognized as the strongest person in the War General Stage.”
Lin Zhen vaguely had some memory as he looked at this page. He seemed to have heard Jiang Huai’s name in his previous life but couldn’t remember where. In theory, someone who could kill an A-level Mutated Beast at the War General level should be considered a genius among geniuses. Lin Zhen recalled that Bai Feng and other two War Gods in Yi Lan County were chased by the A-level Mutant Beast Giant Palm Bear, causing chaos wherever they went.
However, why didn’t Lin Zhen have a stronger memory of such a genius? Could it be that this person had perished? Lin Zhen wondered.
On the third page was a man in black armor, exuding an unrestrained and majestic aura.
“With Li Changying guarding the northwest, no enemy shall pass the border!”
Comment: “Li Changying, the top War General from the Northwestern Military Academy, is a Level Nine War General with innate divine power and speed. He wields a long spear and often battles against Martial Artists from the European Union and Russia. His fame in the Outland even surpasses that of the Northwestern Base City, being called the War God among War Generals. He is a strong contender for the top three in this Ladder Tournament.”
Lin Zhen remembered this person, a powerful Martial Artist from the Northwest region. However, Lin Zhen had never been to the Northwest in his previous life, so he didn’t know the exact details.
Continuing to the fourth page, there was another Martial Artist from themagic
Capital Base City named Zhou Xiangbei who was also a Level Nine War General. Lin Zhen only had a vague impression of him but, according to the introduction, he was also very powerful.
When Lin Zhen opened the fifth page, an incredibly handsome man dressed in a priest’s robe appeared.
“People like jade appear on the far shore; you outshine even the ten-mile spring breeze.”
Comment: “After being last for three consecutive times, the Ice City Base City has finally welcomed a talented leader in Tang Yu, a direct disciple of the Great Divine Sect in St. Sophia Cathedral. He’s a Level Eight War General and Spiritual Mind Master. It’s up to him whether Ice City can make a difference this time.”
“Additionally, the editor believes that both in terms of strength and looks, Tang Yu is the perfect match for Su Mingyue. Since both of them are disciples of the Divine Sect, the editor sincerely hopes that they can end up together..”
