Chapter 60: Lu Sheng Would Fade into the Crowd

Chapter 60 — Lu Sheng Would Fade into the Crowd

"Nope."

Lu Sheng picked up a piece of pink meat and stuffed it into his mouth without looking up. He did not know what kind of meat it was, but the texture was much firmer than he had imagined, and it tasted quite good.

Yang Yuan's mind was not on the food at all.

"I know a little about it. Do you want to know?"

Silence.

“…”

Yang Yuan stared at Lu Sheng for a while, hoping that Lu Sheng would react. However, Lu Sheng only buried his head in his food, which made her feel rather awkward.

She did not know if she should continue.

Fortunately, Lu Sheng quickly realized this. He nodded symbolically and said, "Go on."

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of rib from an unknown animal and took a big bite. It was delicious.

Yang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "The Prodigy Training Camp this time is jointly organized by the Dongning Department of Education, the Martial Arts Association, and the Eastern Military Region.

“Lieutenant Colonel Dong Qingxue of the Eastern Military Region is the person in charge of this training camp. It is said that Dong Qingxue is from the Dong family …"

Yang Yuan spoke for a while and realized that Lu Sheng was not interested in this at all. She quickly changed the topic and continued, "I've asked the seniors who participated in the training camp in the last few batches. I learned from them that the most difficult part of this training camp is not how to get in, but … How to stay."

"What do you mean?" Lu Sheng's interest was finally piqued. He slowed down eating a little.

Yang Yuan saw that Lu Sheng was finally interested in her topic. She straightened her back and continued, "What I mean is, there are conditions for people like us to stay in this training camp."

"What conditions?" Lu Sheng asked.

Yang Yuan replied, "It's something like points. According to the seniors from the previous batch, we have to spend a certain amount of points every day in the training camp. For example, we have to pay for lodging, food, and ask the teachers in the training camp for questions …"

"There are conditions for food?" Lu Sheng frowned.

"Yes." Yang Yuan replied bitterly, "Do you think we're eating ordinary food now?

“Most of this meat are from exotic beasts. After special processing, it's cooked into food that helps us martial artists cultivate.

“Long-term consumption is good for martial artists to increase their vitality (BQV). It can also strengthen their physique in all aspects without developing resistance to supplements.

“However, they are ridiculously expensive. For example, the Rank 2 Black Toothed Sword Pork that you are eating right now, in the outside world, a single serving would cost at least 10,000 yuan.

“Moreover, that’s only the price for the dishes that haven’t been processed and cooked. If it was properly prepared and cooked, the price could reach more than 50,000 yuan. If it wasn't for the training camp, how could someone from an average family afford to eat it every day? Unless your father is the richest man in Baihe City.

“Not to mention that a lot of the meat can't even be bought outside, it's all specially supplied by the military …"

"I see …" Lu Sheng looked at the piece of meat in his hand and was rather surprised. He didn't expect such a piece of meat to be so expensive. In other words, he had eaten at least a hundred to two hundred thousand yuan worth of meat for his meal.

Originally, he had thought that he was quite rich after receiving the one million yuan prize from the Baihe Martial Arts Association.

Only now did he realize that he didn't even have enough to eat and wear.

"… Other than that, there are many special training rooms in the training camp that are very helpful for martial arts training. They are also very difficult to use outside, or rather, one has to pay a huge price to use them."

Yang Yuan said with a worried expression. It could be said that the longer you stay in this training camp, the more benefits you will gain.

And the condition for staying was points.

“Earning points is very difficult! "

"How difficult is it?" Lu Sheng felt a little full. The exotic beast meat was indeed full of energy. One gram was equivalent to a few pounds of ordinary beef and mutton. But when he thought of the frightening price of the meat, he still insisted on eating.

"Very, very difficult …" Yang Yuan smiled bitterly. "Let's put it this way. So far, there are only three people in the training camp with points. The others are still at 0 for the time being. In other words, if we don't earn a certain amount of points soon, we will be kicked out tomorrow."

"Which three? How did they get their points?" Lu Sheng couldn't help but be curious.

Yang Yuan explained, "It's the entrance examination today. Those who clear the exams will be rewarded with points. And I heard that only three people cleared the exam."

"One is Cao Yong from Yanglin City, a Level 2 Martial Artist with Stone Skin Constitution that can greatly increase his defense. He cleared the examination.

"The other is Meng Jinhe from Donggang City, also a Level 2 Martial Artist with a speed-type talent. He also cleared it.

"And the last one … Hey, it's her …" Yang Yuan suddenly looked in a direction.

Lu Sheng followed Yang Yuan's gaze and saw a girl with a cold temperament walking in to the mess area with a bowl of rice.

"It's her?" Lu Sheng was a little surprised. He remembered this girl.

When he came out of the passageway, it was this girl who used her spiritual power to detect him. Then, she was frightened by him and hid in the passage in fear.

As if sensing Lu Sheng's gaze, the girl looked at him. The moment she saw Lu Sheng, the girl was stunned. Her face suddenly turned pale, and then she turned around and walked away without hesitation. Her footsteps were fast and unfaltering.

"You know her? Indeed, it's normal for you to know her. Many people know her.

"Although Xia Lin, from Baoding City, is not a Level 2 Martial Artist, she is indeed a spiritual master who is rarer than Gifted Martial Artists. She should be the most talented and the strongest in this training camp. I heard that the training camp's higher-ups have been paying attention to her for a long time …"

“Only 3 people cleared the exam. It was simply too difficult, even more difficult than the previous one. Didn't you see Xia Lin’s face after she cleared the examination? She even left in such a hurry. I guess she was also tortured during the exam …"

Lu Sheng was speechless.

Yang Yuan's expression was full of emotion.

Before entering the training camp, she had thought that her martial arts talent was not bad and could be considered as genius.

But after entering, she knew what a real genius was! A monster! A demon!

She had been a little complacent when she passed the Level 1 Martial Artist Assessment some time ago. But after entering the training camp, she realized that there were Level 1 Martial Artists around her age everywhere.

There were even Level 2 Martial Artists who had awakened their talents.

Above the Gifted Martial Artists (those who have special talents), there were even more rare and powerful spiritual masters.

Each one was stronger than the next. Even if it was Lu Sheng …

Yang Yuan could not help but think to herself as she looked at the genius in front of her who had once shocked the entire Baihe City.

Even if it was Lu Sheng, he too would soon fade into the crowd.
