I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

"Luo Yuan student." The electronic voice echoed across the entire grassland, "The C-level trial is to kill 200 wild bulls within 50 minutes. Among these 200 wild bull monsters, there are 190 low-level beast generals and 10 mid-level beast generals. Good luck! This is your first time entering the trial tower. You have five minutes to prepare."

Five minutes passed quickly!

"C-level trial, begin!" The electronic voice boomed like thunder throughout the entire grassland world. At the same time, a group of strong bovine monsters, each nearly three meters tall, appeared on the grass a hundred meters ahead. These were the Wild Bulls, known for their unity and herd mentality among bovine monsters! They had long, flowing hair, a pair of curved, sharp horns, and reddish eyes.

"Hum~~"

With a deafening roar echoing across the grassland, 190 low-level beast generals and 10 mid-level beast generals, their eyes red and white breath billowing from their nostrils, charged rapidly toward Luoyuan, their hooves pounding the grass!

"Hehe, little calves, Grandpa's going to play with you!"

Luo Yuan smiled and unleashed a perfect movement technique, slashing at the peak of the third level of the Ninefold Thunder Blade towards these savage bulls. Luo Yuan's current power level was close to 3.5, and with the body simulated in the virtual space, he could unleash the strength of a high-level warrior. Blood mist spewed from the necks of the savage bulls, but these bulls could not harm Luo Yuan in the slightest.

Time passed by, and Luo Yuan was having a great time on the first floor of the Trial Tower. Even the mid-level beast general, the Wild Bull, was left dizzy and disoriented by his perfect agility. The Wild Bull's screams and blood mist kept appearing, which excited him.

Chapter 47 Attribute Library

"Beep, Luo Yuan student, your C-level trial is complete. You have completed the trial in 9 minutes and 24 seconds. All 200 wild bulls have been killed. You have passed!" The electronic voice, as if from a deity, echoed across the entire grassland.

"What? That's it? I haven't had enough fun yet!" Luo Yuan regained his senses and took off his helmet with some annoyance.

"Luo Yuan, you finished so quickly? It's only been less than 10 minutes. By the way, what level of trial did you choose?" Yang Hui asked in surprise.

"It's alright, just the first level C-grade trial. The main thing is that this virtual space is very interesting, the experience is great, and there's no danger, which suits me perfectly," Luo Yuan said with a smile.

"What, a C-level trial?!" Yang Hui and Luo Feng were both shocked, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan did not explain.

Led by Yang Hui, the three of them walked out of the Nine-Story Tower together.

"What codenames are you going to choose?" Yang Hui said. "Today is March 29th, so you will officially join the training camp on April 1st, 2057... Therefore, the first four digits of your codenames must be '5704'. As for the last two digits, since only the two of you will be joining in April, you can choose any two numbers."

"Hmm... 03, I guess!" Luo Feng replied.

“03?” Yang Hui nodded. “Luo Feng’s student code is 570403. The other formalities will be completed soon.”

"Luo Yuan, what's your code name?" Yang Hui asked Luo Yuan.

"01, I guess," Luo Yuan said casually.

……

世界第一训练营的黑龙雕刻排行榜上，当天就出现了第183和第184个名字——“NO.183 罗源（570401），NO.184 罗峰（570403）”。

The news spread almost instantly to the world's five major powers and their various base cities. Special departments of government and military forces, as well as the nine core families of the HR Alliance and dozens of other important families, quickly received the information. Moreover, on the same day, each of these institutions and organizations received detailed information about Luo Yuan and Luo Feng!

From the moment they were born...

……

Governments, militaries, special organizations, conglomerates, and families around the world have all developed various plans to deal with Luo Yuan and Luo Feng, who have just entered the elite training camp! Similarly, as the CEO of the HR Alliance China Region, Vinina Bolenas naturally received this information almost immediately.

Jiangnan Mountain and Water Community, Huayao Peak Mountain Top Villa.

“Vinina, aren’t Luo Yuan and Luo Feng two of our many suspects?” Upon flipping through the first page of the document, Vulture Li Yao immediately thought of the two inconspicuous individuals among the many suspects.

“Especially this Luo Yuan, he’s very low-key, but his strength has increased too fast. In less than a year, he went from an ordinary person to a high-level warrior. He was one of the people who was close to Awei when Awei died. We should pay close attention to this person!” Vinina said through gritted teeth.

"How did he get into the elite training camp? Was it because he's a mentalist?" A cold glint flashed in Li Yao's eyes.

"I don't know, it seems like she was directly admitted early by the higher-ups at the Extreme Martial Arts Academy," Vinina said.

“Interesting. We should test him when we have the chance. That Luo Feng is also a suspect; we can’t let him go either!” Li Yao said coldly.

……

Luo Yuan and Luo Feng followed Yang Hui across a wooden arched bridge and arrived at a cluster of buildings. Yang Hui pointed to a garden not far away and said, "That garden over there is Jiangnan Pavilion. There are already two students living in Jiangnan Pavilion. You two are the third and fourth students living in Jiangnan Pavilion."

"Jiangnan Pavilion, what a wonderful name, it has a very classical feel!" Luo Yuan exclaimed.

"Haha, it's named after the base city. The two students living in Jiangnan Pavilion are both from Jiangnan Base City, but they arrived earlier than you." Yang Hui said mysteriously, then suddenly lowered his voice, "I'm reminding you, one of the two students currently living in Jiangnan Pavilion is named Shi Jiang! He's extremely powerful; I'm not even confident I can beat him. It will be beneficial for you to get along with him."

"Teacher, if you are a mid-level War God, then Shi Jiang must be a high-level War God!" Luo Feng was taken aback, and Luo Yuan, who was standing next to him, also raised his eyebrows.

"Ah."

Yang Hui nodded. "Shi Jiang is one of the top five trainees in the training camp. Many trainees in this elite training camp already possess 'war god strength,' but they just don't pursue the title of war god! This way, they can stay in the training camp. In fact, almost every one of the top thirty trainees in the entire training camp has war god strength."

There are many geniuses here. In terms of mental energy masters, the entire elite training camp has dozens of them, and some can even exert four times their normal physical strength. As for movement techniques, swordsmanship, and saber techniques, several within the camp have reached the level of artistic conception.

"My God!" Luo Feng exclaimed, while Luo Yuan showed delight, it seemed they had come to the right place.

"Are there many people who have cultivated the Ninefold Thunder Blade to a high level?" Luo Yuan asked with interest.

“There are many practitioners of the Ninefold Thunder Blade, but not many have reached the fifth level or higher,” Yang Hui explained.

"They're all geniuses! I love being around geniuses!" Luo Yuan laughed. He found that this elite training camp was a great source of attribute experience and a safe place for him to break through to the planetary level.

The three arrived at Jiangnan Pavilion.

The courtyard of Jiangnan Pavilion is several tens of meters in circumference, with white walls and black tiles. There are even dragon carvings on the walls.

Push open the courtyard gate.

There are three pavilions in the Jiangnan Pavilion. When the three of them walked into the courtyard, the pavilions were very quiet. Yang Hui called out, "Shi Jiang, Zhao Ruo!" Immediately, a short-haired girl wearing a loose bathrobe stood on the balcony of the second floor of a pavilion on the left, while a figure jumped down from the pavilion directly in front of them. It was a young man wearing a black training uniform.

The young man was about 1.7 meters tall. Although he was rather thin, he gave off a very strong impression, as if his entire body was forged from steel. His eyes were reserved, but the occasional glint of light in them was startling.

Luo Yuan used his mental power to scan Shi Jiang's entire body. This person's physical fitness was indeed very strong, but it was still much worse than his own.

"New students have arrived?" An excited voice jumped down from upstairs. Zhao Ruo, holding an umbrella, looked excitedly at Luo Yuan and Luo Feng.

This senior student, named Zhao Ruo, has short hair and a petite figure. Her only flaws are her dark skin and small eyes. Therefore, Zhao Ruo cannot be considered a beauty, but her youthful energy makes her approachable.

"This is Luo Yuan, and this is Luo Feng. From today onwards, they will be living with you in Jiangnan Pavilion," Yang Hui said with a smile. "Shi Jiang, Zhao Ruo, you are their senior brothers and sisters. They have just arrived, so you must take good care of them."

"Don't worry, leave it to me." Zhao Ruo patted her chest. "With me, their senior sister, here, they won't suffer any losses."

"Okay, I'll be going now."

Yang Hui smiled, nodded to Luo Yuan and the other two, and then left.

P.S.: Dear readers, please consider giving me a reward, voting for me, and adding this to your favorites. Thank you so much!

Chapter 48 Invincible War God

Jiangnan Pavilion consists of three buildings. Shi Jiang lives in the central building, Zhao Ru lives on the left (west side), and Luo Yuan and Luo Feng live in the eastern building.

"Luo Yuan, Luo Feng, sit down, sit down." Zhao Ruo was very hospitable. At this moment, the four of them were in the living room of Zhao Ruo's residence.

After introducing themselves and exchanging pleasantries, the group became much closer to each other.

"When you go back to your rooms later, open the laptops that the training camp provided you with," Shi Jiang reminded you. "There is an e-book called 'Trainee Instructions' on this laptop. Please read it carefully."

"Senior brothers and sisters, could you tell us about this 'Black Dragon Ranking'?" Luo Yuan asked.

"That Black Dragon Ranking List is actually a points ranking list. The higher your points, the higher your ranking and the richer the rewards! From the 1st to the 28th of each month, it's time to earn points. The results are tallied on the 29th of each month, and the final ranking for that month is determined! At the beginning of the next month, everyone's points are reset to zero. Then everyone has to work hard again to earn points and compete for a higher ranking."

"The points are calculated by multiplying 'battle points' by 'combat power amplitude'. Battle points are obtained by hunting monsters! And 'combat power amplitude' is very simple, it is 'punch power level' multiplied by 'trial tower level'," Shi Jiang explained.

“Our elite training camp has three training rooms: the trial room, the challenge room, and the gravity room. The time you can use them is determined by your ranking. The higher your ranking, the longer you can use them,” Zhao Ruo interjected.

In the afternoon, Luo Yuan and Luo Feng left Zhao Ruo's attic and went to the small building on the east side. Luo Yuan stayed upstairs and Luo Feng stayed downstairs.

Luo Yuan glanced at the 'Student Guidelines' in his bedroom, then lay down on the bed to rest. He also spread his mental energy, instantly taking in everything within a 10,000-meter radius. He saw many students cultivating, with attribute bubbles constantly falling. Luo Yuan directly collected these with his mental energy, and his strength grew stronger and stronger.

"Power generation technique proficiency +1"

"Power generation technique proficiency +1"

"Power generation technique proficiency +1"

……

Suddenly, a stream of knowledge entered Luo Yuan's mind. After merging with it, Luo Yuan was overjoyed. He used to use the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade directly with the blade, but the power generation techniques he received taught him to integrate the power generation method of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade into every part of his body. In other words, he could use any part of his body to generate the hidden power of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade. Suddenly, his attribute system notified him that his Nine-Fold Thunder Blade had finally broken through to the fourth level, which meant a 3.5 times power generation level.

"Picking up attributes is so satisfying!" Luo Yuan thought to himself with delight.

The next day, Luo Yuan went to the Nine-Story Tower to collect attributes. He knew that breaking through to the Planetary level was not easy, and he only had the realm, but his actual combat strength was hard to say. At least in terms of swordsmanship, movement, power generation skills and level, there were many people in the Nine-Story Tower who were stronger than him. So he decided to enrich his foundation.

Upon arriving at the ninth floor of the Nine-Story Tower, Luo Yuan sat cross-legged on a futon. While cultivating his gene source energy, he used his mental power to cover the entire floor. Immediately, the sound of attribute fusion kept ringing in his mind. This was much faster than picking up attributes at the Limitless Hall, and he obtained more things.

"Mental Strength +20"

Strength +20

"speed +20"

"Dodge technique proficiency +20"

"Ninefold Thunder Blade Proficiency +20"

"Power generation technique proficiency +20"

"Swordsmanship proficiency +20"

……

Luo Yuan felt his strength growing stronger and stronger, and his various skills were constantly improving. His swordsmanship and saber techniques were divided into four levels: basic, specialized, perfect, and artistic conception. Luo Yuan's saber technique was currently only at the specialized level. If he were to fight someone at the same martial arts level as himself, he estimated that he would lose. This was also why he was worried about Li Yao's retaliation. His actual combat strength needed to be improved. In order to gain attributes, Luo Yuan even refused the training camp's offer of a teacher to guide him.

The Trial Tower can test his actual combat strength, the Gravity Chamber can train every cell in his body and increase the amount of genetic energy absorbed by his cells. Moreover, as long as he ranks high, he can obtain various resources, such as a complete set of top-level manuals, a complete set of SS-level equipment, or even the Black God Set. If he only relied on picking up attributes, his improvement speed could not be so fast.

On April 1st, Luo Yuan, along with the other trainees, traveled to a city in the wilderness about 300 kilometers from the training camp—City 1001. This number was personally assigned by 'Hong,' the founder of Hongning Base City. All trainees were required to hunt monsters in this city.

After Luo Yuan arrived, he immediately unleashed his full power, killing the high-level beast generals with a single strike. As for the lord-level monsters, he hadn't hunted them yet. In the end, the trainees in the training camp witnessed the bizarre scene of Luo Yuan chasing a large group of high-level beast generals in a sorry state, leaving them all dumbfounded. This made the trainees realize that Luo Yuan was a ruthless person who had been hiding his strength.

Finally, the training camp had to send special personnel with dozens of large trucks to collect the corpses of the high-level beast generals killed by Luo Yuan. Luo Yuan's points were also rising steadily. On the Black Dragon Ranking, Luo Yuan had reached 16th place, and his Trial Tower level had also broken through to the third level, reaching 3.6. In addition, with his current power level of 4.5 for the fifth level of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, it means that his combat power amplitude was 16.2, reaching the super level. All of this took less than a month, which also attracted the special attention of the five inspectors. Even the headmaster Hong said that he wanted to come and see Luo Yuan in person.

One day at noon, Luo Yuan had just come out of the gravity chamber when Yang Hui, the God of War, came to find him, saying that Inspector Wang had invited him.

Upon arriving at Inspector Wang's house, the two sat facing each other, the tea room filled with the aroma of tea.

"Luo Yuan, you've been hiding this well. You should have broken through to the God of War level long ago, right?" Inspector Wang's slightly hoarse voice rang out.

Luo Yuan nodded. He wasn't surprised, since he wasn't going to hide it anymore. He had found that the training camp was becoming less and less effective for him, and his current strength was just one step away from reaching the planetary level.

"Haha, not bad, we all underestimated you. It seems you're not going to hide it anymore. This is a contract personally drafted for you by the headmaster. After you sign it, the corresponding rewards will be issued to you. However, we only have one set of the Black God Set here. After you get it, you'll need to go to the Ninth Civilization Ruins to get another set to sell to the martial arts school." Inspector Wang stared into Luo Yuan's eyes and said seriously.
