Tempest of the Stellar War

Chapter 586: Tricked

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

After a day of classes, Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan could not wait to go back to student Zhang’s dorm. During lunchtime, Mo Ling had asked them about their class monitor, but both Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan were not interested about that at all. She was the class monitor of Class Huang-1, and a member of the student union, and that was why she was interested about the issue. And Zhang Shan’s narcissism was for nothing at all.

After listening to Lia’s introduction, they were both already itching to get on with it. Zhang Shan even more exhilarated. In school, everyone would still be more cautious as after all, it was be a huge embarrassment if one fight hand in hand and was defeated. However, in the World of Saints, there would not be such apprehension.

However, not all trials were completed smoothly by Wang Zheng.

But amongst these uncompleted trials, Wang Zheng had a special liking for the Atomic Burst. In addition, it was getting more and more interesting.

Stones could be broken into pieces, but it did not shatter point by point. Wang Zheng was very sure that he had unintentionally mastered the King Kong Finger Strike plus the King Kong Palm Strike. And if he continued training, he might even master the King Kong Punch at the rate he was going.

While he continued with his trainings unceasingly, Wang Zheng also found a thread of inspiration to follow. All things had a central cause and the Atomic Burst destroyed the balance of the this cause, disrupting its very existence. This balance of the cause, was a little similar to the center point for geometry.

Just that it was easy to say, but hard to do. Different substances had different causes, just like humans. Of course, all living things had their own law of behaviors. And Wang Zheng felt that even though it was not easy, but he was still going to do it. There was a possibility of mastering this.

This time round, Wang Zheng was indeed obsessed. How could one be able to understand thoroughly the causes and cores of all living things?

Experience? Perhaps it might be useful, but there would come a time where relying experience could result in errors.

There should be other methods, that would be able to accomplish it 100% of the time.

After practicing Atomic Burst for a long time, Wang Zheng also needed some rest. It consumed too much energy, and the more one rushed something, the longer it would take for one to accomplish it. And continuously fighting with machines was also not real practice for his King Kong Punch. What he was lacking now was not his own strength, but how to see through the “cause” of substances. Sometimes, it would be better to stop and think through carefully instead of reckless practice.

Wang Zheng did not hide this matter. He discussed the theory behind Atomic Burst with Zhang Shan, as the so-called cause actually had similarities with physics.

Zhang Shan expressed his sympathy for Wang Zheng’s hard work and diligent training on the Atomic Burst. “You are actually training on that gross explosion? What’s the use of that? Is it not enough to stab someone to death, you even want to cause them to disintegrate into powder to feel happy?” This was definitely a waste of time. Only Wang Zheng would be interested in such a “stupid” trial. With his genius IQ, if he ever came across such thing, he would have immediately ignored it.

“There aren’t significant limitations to the technique. For example, even if the opponent was to wear a five-centimeter thick armour.”

“Man, why didn’t I think of that. Directly turning an armour into a coffin by blowing it up... but unfortunately, if I had any idea, I would have told you about it. It feels that this “cause” of each thing’s existence, is a little like one’s Achilles’ Heel, but it is even more in depth. Let’s forget about it, it is still better for me to not make any irresponsible remarks, it would be bad if you go in the wrong direction.”

Zhang Shan tweaked his ears and scratched his cheeks. To be honest, what Wang Zheng had said was too mysterious. However, it indeed had a little bit of relation to physics, and he would find it too embarrassing to say that he had no idea about it at all...

Wang Zheng nodded his head. “What you just said was very helpful, let me go think about it more.”

“What I feel is that if you have the time to think about this, it might be even more useful for you to think about ways to gather some special skills methods.” Actually, Zhang Shan was still not too approving of Wang Zheng spending his time on this Atomic Burst.

Atomic Burst might appear to be very powerful. However, there were always a myriad of changes in an instant during battles. Between experts, more often it was a competition on who was more accurate, who made mistakes and who would die. Atomic Burst was not too stable, it was not too suitable in the fights of experts. Moreover, whether Atomic Burst could be brought out of World of Saints was still a big question mark. Maybe it was just an entertaining trial. For them, entering World of Saints was not just for playing games. Their goal ought to be focused on cultivation technique trials that would have the effect of boosting their ability X.

Especially when it came to Cultivation Techniques. Now that Zhang Shan had already experienced the sweet taste of power, he would be frantically practicing in the World of Saints every day.

“Let me try again alright?” Wang Zheng gave a faint smile. What Zhang Shan said was actually also right. However, he always felt that Atomic Burst was not so simple, and this was definitely not some game.

Throughout all the trials, there were quite many that were extremely challenging that even he felt knotty. However, there was absolutely none that was like Atomic Burst where he had still yet to succeed after practicing it for a month. Other trials, regardless of how challenging they were, he would still be able to come up with ways to resolve them. But Atomic Burst had been giving him an unrealistic rosy view all along. Even when he felt that he had touched the edge of understanding, but in reality, it was actually all useless.

Entering the World of Saints once again, Wang Zheng did not go into the Atomic Burst trial. Today, he had decided to challenge some other things. Having done the same thing for too long, his brain was also getting a little numb, it was necessary for him to catch a breath.

Looking at his buddy list, Tentacles was online.

He immediately sent a question over to Tentacles. “Are you here?”

In the trial room, Tentacles suddenly quivered, news about Charcoal!

Over the past few days, Charcoal had fell into a silent state. Tentacles was actually a little nervous in his heart, he really hoped that these things would pass. But unfortunately, it did not. And Charcoal appeared once again.

Especially after seeing more than 200 rounds of consecutive wins by Charcoal, Tentacles was starting to regret.

However, what’s done cannot be undone. Furthermore, it was clear that the Shadow Organisation would not just leave the matter at that. The command that the corporation had given him was to “maintain their relationship, and wait for the opportunity to act”.

“Here, of course I am here. Brother Charcoal finally has some free time? Do not hesitate to ask me if you need anything.”

Tentacles straightened his state of mind and opened up his audio chat to reply.

Wang Zheng laughed. “Are there any new trials recently that I can challenge? With a higher difficulty level.”

The trials of World of Saints were not always the same. It would be changed frequently, for some it was only the difficulty level that increased, while for others it would be replaced by new trials. With regards to this, the updates for World of Saints were always very frequent and diligent.

Tentacles blinked his eyes, he had a sudden plan in his mind. “Brother Char, are you sure you want a high difficulty level?”

“Yes, it’s for me to change my mood.” Wang Zheng gave a faint smile. The practices of Atomic Burst had caused him to crack up and overload his brain. He wanted to do something different to invigorate himself.

Tentacles sighed. “There is a Hail Cloud trial, with a very high difficulty level.”

“Where is it?”

“In the Ice Cold Forest.” Tentacles shook his head silently. You refused to take the road to heaven, but instead choose to push yourself to hell where there is no door. Charcoal, do not blame me. You were asking for it yourself.

For the Hail Cloud trial, it was evident that there was important information which Tentacles did not explain.

Acolytes’ region, Ice Cold Forest.

Over here, it was an open snowfield for combats and trials. There were quite many people gathered above the campsite that was surrounding the forest.

At the same time, this was also the base camp of people with ice abilities X.

Hail Cloud League was in charge of everything in the campsite.

Hail Cloud League, from its name you would have known that most of its members were from Hail Cloud Alliance. Of course, there were also people with abilities X from other places. The chief of the Hail Cloud League was Snow Li, the number one genius from Hail Cloud who was born in the year of the Ice Dragon Dance. And her ID in the World of Saints was Promise.

Long before participating in the IG, Snow Li had already obtained the World of Saints, and she built the Hail Cloud League all by herself.

After IG had ended, Snow Li had spent most of her energy in the World of Saints, and she was striving her best to gain the method that would allow her to further advance her ability X.

Currently, the Hail Cloud League was already deeply rooted in the Acolytes’ level. The next step would be to enter the Saints’ level. However, before entering the Saints’ level, there was one thing that Snow Li must accomplish.

And that was the Hail Cloud trial that was hidden deep inside the Ice Cloud Forest!

She had already tried three times and put in her utmost efforts for the three battles!

In the end, the result was three defeats for all three battles!

Today, she had made thorough preparations to go for the Hail Cloud trial for the fourth time.

Arriving at the deep part of the Ice Cloud forest, there were already people from the Hail Cloud League who were keeping watch.

However, just as she walked over, Snow Li realized that something was not right. The faces of the three persons who were keeping watch of the trial entrance were unusually weird.

“What’s wrong?”

Snow Li frowned.

“There is someone inside...”

Snow Li laughed. “Then I shall wait here for a while.”

Hail Cloud trial was a special trial where only one person was allowed to enter into the trial area at any one time.

There were not many people who knew about the Hail Cloud trial. However, every once in a while, there would still be people who would come with the trial key to try it out. But there was no one who had been able to succeed.

Majority of the people would only be able to last for three minutes before getting kicked out of the trial. For those with slightly better strength, at most five minutes. Over here, you would only be allowed to use Sixteen Point Techniques. Even for Snow Li, on her third attempt, she had also only lasted for ten minutes.

Snow Li opened up an information card and was about to record something down. She looked up and saw that her three subordinates’ faces were still unusually weird. She could not help but to ask. “You guys saw someone going in?”

The three of them nodded at the same time. One of them replied, “It’s Charcoal.”

Charcoal?

Snow Li’s glance shifted slightly. With regards to Charcoal, she also knew quite a lot about him. He had started more than 200 consecutives round of life and death games, yet he did not suffer any defeats at all. The strength was there, but hearing this news, Snow Li was not bothered about it at all. The reason why some people had come here was to make a name for themselves, or even to become one of the 5 Saints and so on. However, all these did not hold much significance to her. She came here to find ways to improve her ability X. And it was not just here, many people from the Elite Academy X were also like this. Actually, blindly improving your level was meaningless. Instead, it might even cause you to overlook the essences of the different types of trials. If we had really wanted to talk about strength, the individuals from the Xuan, Earth and Heaven grades of the Elite Academy X would be sufficient to sweep away everything over here.

As for money..., that was something that Snow Li had no need to worry about.

Of course, it would not have occurred to her that student Charcoal being so high profile was really just to earn a little more money for spending.

But it was even more unexpected that Charcoal would actually come for the Hail Cloud trial...

Wait a minute, there should only be three keys to the Hail Cloud that were recently issued. She had one, and the other two recipients were also members of the Hail Cloud League.

How did Charcoal go in?

“He did not use the ice key?” Snow Li’s eyes were wide open. “Is he an idiot?”

Hail Cloud trial, as a special trial, it had a complete trial sequence. Before entering, you must obtain the key to the Hail Cloud. With the key to the Hail Cloud, if you fail, at most you would lose some time and equipment. However, if you had entered into the trial without a key to the Hail Cloud, if you die, you might not only suffer from psychological trauma. At the same time, you would also be kicked straight out of the World of Saints.

There was this type of special trials that existed in the World of Saints, and the reason was to prevent anyone from passing the trial through the method of repeating the trial over and over again just because they wanted to pass the trial.

“Chief, he...”

“He has already gone in for fifteen minutes.”

“What!”

Snow Li’s eyes widened even further.
