Chapter 30
After Wan Changan awarded Zhang Yuan the military rank, he teleported away with his personal guards.
As the commander-in-chief of the Great Xia National Defense Army, Wan Changan was busy with important matters, and it was already the limit for him to take a short period of time to meet with Zhang Yuan.
After Wan Changan left, Xia Chaoyang took Zhang Yuan to the military cafeteria for dinner, and at the same time introduced Zhang Yuan to the situation in the army and the many benefits of the soldiers.
When Xia Chaoyang talked about the skill training hall, Zhang Yuan was particularly curious and asked,"What is the skill training hall?"
"The Skill Training Hall is where our soldiers improve their skill levels. The efficiency of practicing skills in it will be greatly improved. The Skill Training Hall is a unique facility of our army and cannot be found in other places."
"Improve skill level?" A hint of surprise flashed in Zhang Yuan's eyes.
He is already level 18, but his sword formation and sword-controlling skills are only level 3, and he doesn't know when he will be able to upgrade to the next level.
If the skill training hall can improve his skill level, it will be a huge leap for his combat power.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan couldn't wait to ask:"Can I go to the skill training hall?"
"Of course, this is your benefit."Xia Chaoyang smiled,"But we only have a primary skill training hall here, which can quickly increase your skill level to level 5 at most. If you want to use a more advanced skill training hall, you can only report to the Qianlong Detachment in Kyoto."
"It would be great if I could upgrade to level 5." Zhang Yuan replied in surprise,"My skills are only level 3 now, and it will be a big improvement if I upgrade to level 5."
"Well, I'll take you there after we finish our meal."
""Okay!"
Zhang Yuan swept the food on the plate clean like a whirlwind, and then followed Xia Chaoyang to an independent cubic building.
Xia Chaoyang turned to Zhang Yuan and said,"After you go in, the skill training hall will teleport you to a separate closed room. You can't come out until the training is completed or you give up. You have to be mentally prepared for this."
"But you don't have to worry about your own food, drink, defecation and urination. The training hall is fully equipped and there are nutritious meals prepared by a dedicated person every day."
""Thank you for letting me know." Zhang Yuan thanked Xia Chaoyang, and then walked into the skill training hall impatiently.
The soldiers outside the skill training hall saw Zhang Yuan go in, and asked Xia Chaoyang with a smile:"Captain Xia, how long do you think that kid can last in the training hall?"
Xia Chaoyang stretched out five fingers and said confidently:"5 days."
The soldier was surprised and said:"He is still a student, right? Wouldn't people go crazy after staying in that damn place for five days?"
Xia Chaoyang smiled slightly:"He is the hope of our empire's future, he does have this ability. If you don't believe it, how about we make a bet?"
"Let's bet!"
While Xia Chaoyang was betting with the soldiers, Zhang Yuan had already teleported into a small room of 50 square meters.
The space was neither too big nor too small, enough for training.
"Welcome to the Primary Skills Training Hall. Do you need a tailor-made training package?"
As soon as Zhang Yuan came in, he heard an AI-synthesized female voice.
"Can you customize a training package?"
Zhang Yuan's eyes flashed with surprise. Everything here was new to him, so he answered yes immediately.
Then, Zhang Yuan felt a strange light wave scanning his body.
"Scan completed. Currently upgradeable skills are Sword Formation (Level 3), Sword Control (Level 3), Attribute Conversion (Level 1). Training 16 hours a day, estimated upgrade time is 20 days. Do you want to start training?"
"So long?"
After hearing the time required to upgrade his skills, Zhang Yuan finally understood why Xia Chaoyang suddenly mentioned eating, drinking, defecating and urinating in the training hall. It turned out that the battle line was so long!
Zhang Yuan thought for a moment. There were still 27 days before the national college entrance examination. He was already level 18. Even if he trained in this training hall for 20 days, he still had a week to level up. Even if he kept soloing the Luosha River dungeon, it would be enough to reach level 19. As for the 16 hours of training every day, with his current mental strength of more than 3,000, it should not be difficult to stick to it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan took out the communicator and sent a message to his grandmother and aunt, explaining his current situation and that he would not go home within 20 days.
After all, he was not alone. If he suddenly disappeared for 20 days, his grandmother and aunt would be worried.
After reporting to his family, Zhang Yuan chose to start training.
The next moment, a training wooden man rose from the center of the room.
"The training started. First, use the sword formation skill, then use the flying sword skill to attack the wooden man, repeat 100 times."
As the AI voice gave the training plan, Zhang Yuan also began to deploy the sword formation, summoning ten iron swords from the sword formation space to attack the wooden man in the room.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhang Yuan felt that he was more comfortable using the flying sword skill in this room than outside.
Soon, 100 trainings were completed, and Zhang Yuan tried to control the iron sword again and found that it was a little smoother.
"It seems to be more efficient than training in the wild."Zhang Yuan tasted the sweetness and was immediately full of energy, and began to practice his skills continuously.
The training intensity in the skill training hall was much greater than Zhang Yuan had imagined. When he finished the first day of training, he was almost exhausted. He didn't even have the energy to wash up and fell asleep directly.
Although the training here was intense, the results were also gratifying. On the first day alone, Zhang Yuan's sword-controlling skill level was raised to level 4.
The next morning, Zhang Yuan, who was still in a sweet dream, was awakened by a basin of cold water, and then he was horrified to see that a mechanical arm holding a basin of water stretched out from the ceiling of the training hall.
"The next day, training begins. Use the sword-controlling skill to attack the wooden man 1,000 times."
Zhang Yuan listened to the emotionless AI voice, looked at the wooden man in the center of the room, and couldn't help asking,"Is this a skill training hall or a prison?"
The AI voice sounded again:"Please start training within ten seconds, otherwise it will be considered as giving up training. This skill training hall will be closed and will no longer be open to you."
"Who wants to give up? I want to upgrade my skills to the maximum here!"
Zhang Yuan was immediately aroused by his competitive spirit. He directly summoned his flying sword and started high-intensity repetitive training.
During these twenty days, Zhang Yuan ate, drank, defecated and urinated in this training hall. He ate when he was hungry, slept when he was tired, and continued to train when he woke up. He kept repeating skill exercises mechanically to improve his skill proficiency.
As Zhang Yuan's skill level continued to rise, he gradually realized that nothing can be achieved overnight.
Even if he has a strong profession and skills, the only way to become stronger is to keep training.
Gradually, Zhang Yuan became addicted to practicing skills.
Twenty days passed in a flash.
Zhang Yuan ran out of an afterimage in the room, and finally stopped in the center of the room and pressed the button in the middle.
"Congratulations on completing this training package. This skill training hall can no longer improve your skill level. If you want to continue to improve, please go to the advanced skill training hall."
The AI voice sounded, and Zhang Yuan checked his skill information.
【Skill: Sword Formation (Level 5), deploys a sword formation, continuously consumes mental power, within a radius of 50 meters, critical hit damage increases by 140%】
【Sword Control (Level 5): Control a flying sword and attack from mid-air. The power depends on the quality of the sword, your own mental strength, and skill level.】
【Attribute Conversion (Level 5): In the sword formation, you can convert mental power into strength, agility, and physical attributes, with a conversion increase of 5 times.】
""Huh... It's finally over."
Zhang Yuan smiled with relief when he saw that his three skills had all been upgraded to level 5.
It actually took him three days to upgrade the sword formation and sword control skills to level 5. He spent the rest of the time practicing the attribute conversion skill.
And if he wants to practice this skill, he has to exercise intensively, which is equivalent to doing an enhanced triathlon in the training hall every day.
Before Zhang Yuan entered the skill training hall, he didn't have any abdominal muscles... But when he came out, he already had six abdominal muscles!
The intensity of this training can be imagined!
When Zhang Yuan left the training hall, he saw a group of soldiers surrounding him outside, and everyone looked at him with admiration.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yuan was stunned, looked at Xia Chaoyang who was also waiting outside, and asked:"What's going on? Why are you all here?"
At this time, Xia Chaoyang couldn't help but give Zhang Yuan a thumbs up,"Boy, you are really awesome. You can actually stay in the training hall for 20 days!"
Zhang Yuan was surprised:"What's wrong with staying for 20 days? Isn't that a system-customized training package?"
Xia Chaoyang looked at Zhang Yuan as if he were a freak and said,"Do you know that before you, the longest training record in this training hall was seven days!"
"You are awesome, you know that?"
Zhang Yuan:"Huh?"
