Chapter 34 City
Chapter 34 City
Soon, Ailiji and his group were taken to the foot of a mountain. Sure enough, Zhou's training involved digging into mountains.
"Starting today, you'll dig through this mountain from here! You have one week," Bisky said with a wicked grin. This location was one he had carefully chosen.
At this moment, Ailiji only felt a little tired!
Even if Eligi and his group knew Nen, when they ran while carrying a hundred pounds of weight, their bodies would instinctively mobilize their Nen, keeping it in a relatively abundant state.
This feeling is, for some reason, even more tiring than simply "practicing" in one place.
Now that it's confirmed that I really have to be a miner, the mental exhaustion is immense; it's like starting work with a double negative buff.
"What else is there to say? Let's start digging!" Without asking any questions, Ailiji led his men to begin digging into the mountain.
When the shovel hits the ground, sparks fly out, and the force of the impact makes your hands numb, which proves that there are a lot of solid rocks under the soil.
Seeing this, Ailiji did not dig hard, but tried to wrap his qi around the shovel. Because his control skills were not very good, the shovel looked like it was in a "refining" state.
It was obvious that this would consume a lot of energy, but Eligi didn't care and just started shoveling.
Sure enough, those originally hard stones were scooped up like tofu blocks by the shovel empowered by Eliji's Nen, which greatly increased the speed of digging the hole.
When Hinata and her two companions saw this, they followed suit and started digging the tunnel much faster.
As for Gaara, he did not participate in training. If it weren't for the limitation of his Nen limit, Gaara would probably be considered a master as well.
Besides, digging mountains is just like playing around for Gaara, isn't it?
Bisky felt something was off about the way Eligi was mining. She wondered if Eligi knew anything, but he was condensing so much energy into the shovel. It didn't feel like Zhou; it felt more like Ning.
As if Ailiji didn't understand, Ailiji didn't need any explanation. The first thing he thought of was treating the shovel as part of his body and attaching his Qi to it.
"What a strange guy. I wonder where he got all that theoretical knowledge about Nen from," Bisky muttered to herself.
Tsunade, standing beside her, asked curiously, "Didn't you say that?"
"I didn't say that." Bisky paused for a moment after saying that, then suddenly remembered Eligi's act of collecting stones. That was a little trick she came up with to train enhancement abilities. Could it really be that she said it?
But soon, Bisky shook her head, certain that she hadn't said that.
And so, Ailiji began his daily training: digging through mountains during the day and pulling a rope tied to his forehead with a rock at night.
Bisky figured that since Eligi came from Meteor City, pulling the rope wouldn't be a difficult thing for him.
But who knew that Eligi would perform the worst, getting a big bump on his head every night, followed by this guy Ya.
Hinata and Shino were very alert and were not hit by any stones.
As for Gaara, it was mentioned before that he did not participate in the training, so naturally he wouldn't be hit by the rock.
Even if Gaara participates in training, he probably won't get hit by a rock, because Gaara never sleeps, as you can tell from his dark circles under his eyes.
Thus, a week of training had passed.
The small hill was finally dug through by Ailiji and his group.
"Phew! Even the air tastes sweet!" Eligi exclaimed, then sat down to rest and casually asked, "By the way, how did Xiao Jie's match go?"
"It seems he was injured by a guy named Jidou, and I heard he needs to rest for a month," Hinata said, holding a shovel.
Jidou? Eligi was surprised to hear this name. Jidou, Tanuki, and Dazo had all had their Nen abilities awakened by the malicious baptism of a Nen user with two hundred layers of Nen power.
However, the price of activating it was quite high. Jidou lost both legs, and Libeiduo was also crippled and could only sit in a wheelchair.
The best that could be done is to kill Da Suo, but that would only result in losing an arm.
The three of them banded together for warmth and became the gatekeepers of the 200th floor, specifically targeting those who had just reached the 200th floor to achieve victory.
I dream of becoming a landlord and achieving financial freedom directly.
So it's not surprising that Xiao Jie encountered this group of people again. These people are considered wild Nen users, and their strength is not very powerful.
After two or three months of training, Xiao Jie was able to easily defeat the trio.
"Speaking of which, our competition deadline is almost here, isn't it?" Eligi said.
There is a three-month rest period after reaching the 200th floor. If there are no matches during the three months, the arena will count as a bye, which is also considered a loss. If you lose four matches in a row, you will have to start from the first floor and climb back to the 200th floor.
The rest period below the 200th floor is even shorter, only one month.
If Eligi doesn't participate in battles for a month, the arena will reclaim the building and demote the player.
"Yes, Kiba and I have about six days left, Eligi and Gaara have seven days, and Shino has eight days." Hinata remembered all of this very clearly.
Just as Eligi was chatting, Bisky suddenly appeared. Seeing the rubble all over the ground, she pointed a finger. Eligi and her group immediately used "Focus" to look over and shouted, "Twenty-one!"
"Very good, 'Ning,' 'Zhou,' and 'Yin,' you've now entered the basics. From here on out, it's just a matter of patience and gradual improvement. Now, spend another week digging back." Bisky was quite satisfied with the group's progress.
The practice of "condensation," "cycle," and "concealment" cannot be fully mastered in just one week. It requires at least two or three months of repeated practice to allow the body to form muscle memory before one can be considered to have truly mastered the basics.
Only with a solid foundation can one proceed to practice advanced techniques.
"Our lease on the arena is about to expire, so we need to go back and participate in some matches," Eligi reminded us.
After hearing this, Bisky stroked her chin and thought for a moment before saying, "Alright then, you guys go back to the arena and clear two hundred floors within a week, then come find me here."
For some reason, Bisky added, "Oh, by the way, give me one of those soldier's rations."
"What do you need that for?" Eligi asked, quite puzzled. This thing seemed to only be useful to his spirit beast, and he didn't seem to have mentioned the soldier pills to Bisji. How did she know about it? It was really strange.
"Why are you so long-winded, kid!" Bisky said, pointing her finger.
"Thirty-two!" Eligi said a second too late, just as Bisky tapped him on the forehead.
Ailiji couldn't help but think to himself, this guy is definitely trying to mess with me on purpose, but I'm under his roof, so I might as well not ask.
In the end, Eligi took out a soldier's ration pill and gave it to Bisky. Bisky took the soldier's ration pill, which was in a box, and turned to leave.
Only a bewildered Aliji and his group were left behind. Fortunately, they still knew the way back, otherwise they might have starved in the wilderness.
Soon, Ailiji led the team and jogged more than 30 kilometers back to the city, but unexpectedly encountered some minor problems as soon as they returned.
An invisible hand grabbed Ailiji, and three figures appeared in a small alley, blocking the group of five.
Seeing this, Eligi asked, somewhat speechless, "We don't seem to know each other, so why are you attacking us?"
If it were anyone else, Eligi wouldn't hesitate at all, assuming they were someone sent by the elders of Meteor City.
However, Eligi recognized the three people in front of him who had very distinctive appearances, which is why he felt it was strange that they would attack his group.
That's right, the three people who appeared on the street were Ji Dou, Li Bei Duo, and Sha Da Suo.
I was just talking about the three of them, and now I'm seeing them in person. It's all fate.
