C138 The Highest Level of Confidentiality

Lu Chong stayed in the Virtual Trials Tower for more than eight hours before he finally 'died' and was forced to leave.

He discovered that as long as he didn't die directly in the Virtual Trials Tower, he could continue fighting.

Even if his energy was exhausted or if he was seriously injured, he could still recover inside.

Of course, the Virtual Trials Tower would also set a time when it would be forced out. It wouldn't really make one drown in the endless cycle inside.

In general, the battle in the Virtual Tower was infinitely close to the battle in real life.

"I'm afraid that the original intention of this Virtual Trials Tower was to completely restore reality, or to be infinitely close to it." Lu Chong thought to himself and felt that it was actually quite scary.

If someone was immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves, they might really not be able to differentiate reality from reality, and eventually completely destroy themselves.

Lu Chong's vision refocused and only then did he feel a headache and emptiness, as if he had really experienced a few hours of battle and was exhausted.

Especially when he challenged the last mutated beast, the feeling of being slapped to death by the opponent was simply too real. It made Lu Chong experience the feeling of death for the first time.

In that instant, it was an indescribable silence and darkness, as if his soul was about to fall into a bottomless abyss.

Even though Lu Chong was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness and fear.

These feelings had completely exceeded the pain he felt when he died.

"Therefore, I can't let myself die so easily even if I'm in the virtual space in the future." Lu Chong made up his mind.

It wasn't because of fear, but because he didn't want to adapt to the feeling of facing death and lose the reverence of his life. He was used to fake death and was even numb to it.

He was very clear in his heart. Once he became numb to fake death, he would become a person who ignored life and became a killing machine.

From another angle, when he no longer feared death, when faced with a life and death situation in the future, would he still be able to unleash all of his combat strength?

Would he also develop the habit of being numb and lazy before his death?

Lu Chong had never tried it before, but he would rather never try it.

Lu Chong left the mechanical chair with lingering fear. He opened the cabin door and saw Vice-president Zhou waiting for him at the door.

However, Vice-president Zhou looked very serious at the moment. He said seriously, "I believe you have already experienced it."

"What I want to remind you is that even if it is a virtual battle, you should not put life and death aside so easily."

"You must distinguish between virtual and real life. In a real battle, you only have one life."

"Therefore, try your best to obtain the greatest victory at the smallest price possible. Do you understand?"

Lu Chong took a deep breath and his mind became clearer. He nodded solemnly and said, "Thank you for Vice-president Zhou's reminder. I will remember it."

Vice-president Zhou's reminder was timely and concise. It was in line with Lu Chong's thoughts.

"It is best that you understand." Vice-president Zhou was still serious. "Many people do not take this point seriously."

"In virtual space, they fought with their lives on the line, exchanging injuries for injuries, and even injured their enemies. They thought that they were very brave."

"Heh... It's all foolish behavior." Vice-president Zhou sneered.

He had seen too many such people. Even if he reminded them countless times, they wouldn't listen to him.

It was like a game that was easily addictive. Some people knew that they should stop when it was appropriate, but they would still be immersed in that kind of pleasure and would not be able to extricate themselves.

"You can go back first and reflect on what you lack."

"Those few teammates of yours have also woken up. Take a rest and don't forget our previous agreement." Vice-president Zhou waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Vice-president Zhou. We will do it."

Lu Chong knew that Vice-president Zhou was talking about maintaining the first place on the monthly ranking and participating in the National Martial Arts Competition at the end of the year.

However, after this huge increase in strength and the verification in the Tower of Trials, he was more confident.

...

Watching Lu Chong leave the Virtual Trials Tower, Vice-president Zhou's solemn face could no longer be tense. His face was filled with shock and joy.

"Abnormal! Abnormal! This kid is too abnormal! But, I like him! Abnormal! The more abnormal he is, the better!"

While muttering, Vice-president Zhou's figure flashed and returned to the main control room.

Old President Zheng and Prof. Xu were still waiting there, staring at the replay of the previous scene without blinking.

"Physical fitness, spiritual will, battle consciousness, experience and a dazzling combination of martial skills, tsk tsk... How long has it been since I have such a student under my tutelage?"

Old President Zheng's white beard had been cut in half by himself, but he could not care less about his heart anymore. He just kept praising.

Prof. Xu carefully said, "Cough cough, teacher, Lu Chong is my student."

"I also went to Hedong Base Province to dig him up."

Old President Zheng widened his eyes and his white beard exploded. "What about you? Don't tell me your student is not mine?"

"But, Little Xu, you did a good job this time."

"I don't dare to say anything else. If this little guy didn't die prematurely, he would still be a Martial King."

"Who knows, he might be able to catch up to me in the future."

Prof. Xu didn't dare refute, but he was also shocked by Old President Zheng's evaluation.

Martial King!

There were less than a hundred people in the Flame Country, and less than a hundred of them had been accumulated over the past hundred years. How small was the probability of this happening?

Even in the top martial institutions in the Jiangnan Martial Arts University, there were less than ten Martial King that had been nurtured over the years.

It could be seen how rare Martial King warriors were, and how difficult it was to break through to the next realm.

As an upper-stage Martial Grandmaster, Prof. Xu had experienced it personally.

If nothing unexpected happened, he would never be able to reach that step in his life.

Thinking back to that year, he was also a student who was praised as a genius by the old principal.

What about now?

It was true that talented people came out in every generation, and the previous waves died on the beach.

However, he didn't think that his teacher was exaggerating.

Because after seeing Lu Chong's performance in the virtual trial, Prof. Xu felt that he might not be a match for this kid anymore.

With a Martial Master Level 8 cultivation base, could he tear a Level 4 Level 5 mutated beast with his bare hands?1

"Say, do you think Lu Chong has used his full strength in the Virtual Trials Tower?" Vice-president Zhou suddenly interrupted.

Prof. Xu was slightly stunned and said hesitantly, "I... I don't think so."

"He risked his life in the end."

Old President Zheng stroked his beard again and shook his head. "It's hard to say, hard to say."

"However, there is still more than a month before the National Martial Arts Competition. Who knows if he will continue to grow?"

"For geniuses like Lu Chong and me, the most terrifying thing is not how strong they are at the moment, but how fast we are improving. We can never predict what will happen."

Vice-president Zhou and Prof. Xu looked at each other, and tacitly chose to lower their heads. They quickly changed the topic and said, "Then Lu Chong's results in the Virtual Trials Tower, do you need to announce it to the public?"

Old President Zheng immediately clapped his hands and said, "Of course not."

"It must be confidential. It must be confidential."

"The level of confidentiality for Lu Chong this time is the highest. No one is allowed to check it before the end of the martial arts competition."

"Hehe... After the competition begins, I'll give everyone a surprise."
