183: Chapter 183 Twenty Million Pay-to-Win Points
Facing Instructor Shi Yan's earth-shattering axe strike, which was enough to make any Sixth-Rank expert feel despair, Wang Pingan showed no panic.
In his pitch-black eyes, there was even a flash of excitement!
Come on!
He wanted to test exactly how much his strength had increased after breaking through to the Sixth-Rank!
Starfall Flowing Light Body!
Activate!
Hum—
A faint, starlight-like silver halo instantly appeared on the surface of Wang Pingan's body!
His figure swayed slightly in place.
The next second.
He had silently appeared a hundred meters away!
He had narrowly dodged that world-destroying axe strike!
Boom—!!
Instructor Shi Yan's battle axe landed on empty space.
The violent axe wind, however, had forcibly carved a dark space crack several kilometers long into the void of the starry sky!
"Hmm?"
Instructor Shi Yan looked at the space crack that was slowly healing, then looked at the unscathed youth not far away.
A trace of imperceptible surprise flashed through his sharp eyes.
What incredible speed!
This was no longer speed on a purely physical level.
This was a higher-level movement technique, bordering on "spatial teleportation"!
This little monster really had another trick up his sleeve!
"Interesting." A smile full of fighting spirit curled up at the corners of Instructor Shi Yan's mouth.
He did not give Wang Pingan any chance to catch his breath!
His tall figure turned into a bolt of black lightning once again!
The battle axe in his hand danced into a dense, black storm filled with an aura of destruction!
It descended upon Wang Pingan's head!
In an instant.
The entire virtual starry battlefield was completely shrouded by the violent axe shadows and the brilliant silver flowing light!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Muffled, thunder-like energy explosions sounded continuously!
Every collision caused the entire space to tremble violently!
Wang Pingan was like a small boat swaying crazily in a Category 12 typhoon.
It looked precarious, as if he could be completely swallowed by the black storm at any moment.
Yet, at the most critical and fatal moments, he could always use a bizarre, inconceivable footwork that completely defied all physical laws to narrowly weave through the impenetrable axe shadows!
He felt like a dancer dancing wildly on the tip of a blade!
Every dodge, every shift, made him feel an unprecedented sense of stimulation and excitement!
Awesome!
This is fucking awesome!
This is a real battle!
This is a hearty duel between experts!
Time passed second by second.
Five minutes.
Eight minutes.
Ten minutes.
The moment the timer on the virtual battlefield finally jumped to "10:00".
Instructor Shi Yan's storm-like offensive came to an abrupt halt.
He hovered quietly in the starry sky, looking at the youth not far away who, despite having somewhat chaotic breathing, didn't have a single scratch on him.
A look of "shock" appeared on his tough face for the first time.
He actually... really lasted ten minutes!
And that was under his all-out, unreserved onslaught!
Although from the scene, Wang Pingan was passively beaten and in a sorry state the whole time.
But Instructor Shi Yan knew better than anyone.
To be able to persist for ten minutes without injury under his "Mad Demon Dancing Axe," which was enough to give even a Seventh-Rank Grandmaster of the same level a headache, was in itself a miracle!
This kid's movement technique was simply too bizarre!
"Did I... pass? Instructor?" Wang Pingan asked, panting while using a tone of "lingering fear."
"..." Instructor Shi Yan fell silent.
He looked at Wang Pingan's face, which was written with "lingering fear" and "exhaustion."
He recalled that ghostly, completely unreasonable movement technique from just a moment ago.
He felt a tightness in his chest.
After a long while.
He squeezed two words out through his teeth.
"Passed."
After saying that, he directly exited the virtual battlefield.
He was afraid that if he stayed for one more second, he wouldn't be able to help but beat this infuriating little monster to death on the spot.
...
Heaven Character Number One Villa, simulation battle room.
Wang Pingan sat up from the silver-white holographic simulation device.
Where was there any sign of the "exhaustion" from just a moment ago on his face?
Replacing it was a flushed look of satisfaction and excitement!
"Awesome! So awesome!" He couldn't help but whisper.
Fighting against a true top expert like Instructor Shi Yan, although the pressure was immense, the benefits to him were immeasurable!
He felt that his understanding and application of the Starfall Flowing Light Body had reached a brand new level!
Just then.
His personal terminal vibrated gently.
A system message from the Exchange Center popped up.
【 Ding! Your 'S+' level strength certification has been passed. 】
【 Your personal authorization has been upgraded to the highest level. 】
【 Now, you can exchange for all 'S-level' controlled items within the academy. 】
Seeing this message, a "conspiracy succeeded" smile appeared on Wang Pingan's face.
Without hesitation, he opened the Exchange Center again.
He found those two Ninth-Rank divine arts that he had been longing for for a long time.
【 Great Sun Furnace Scripture, exchange price: 3,000,000 credits. 】
【 Grand Void Contemplation Scripture, exchange price: 2,000,000 credits. 】
This time, there were no more obstacles.
"Exchange!"
【 credits - 5,000,000 】
【 Congratulations, exchange successful! Rubbing copies of the two cultivation techniques have been sent to your personal inbox. 】
Done!
Wang Pingan nodded with satisfaction.
He closed the Exchange Center, preparing to learn these two newly acquired divine arts.
His gaze inadvertently swept over his system panel.
Then, his movements froze.
He stared fixedly at the string of numbers on the system panel that made him feel a little dizzy and were full of infinite temptation.
【 pay-to-win points: 23,218,765 】
Twenty-three million, two hundred and eighteen thousand, seven hundred and sixty-five points!
Looking at this number, Wang Pingan's heart started beating wildly again.
A crazy thought, one that even he felt was somewhat unrealistic, sprouted frantically in his mind!
His current cultivation level was Sixth-Rank Early Stage.
There was still an extremely long distance to the Sixth-Rank Peak.
According to the normal cultivation speed, even if he had top-tier resources and cultivation techniques, it would take at least several years, or even more than a decade, of hard cultivation to reach the Sixth-Rank Peak.
But now...
He had money!
He had plenty of money!
"System!" A light called "craziness" flashed in Wang Pingan's eyes!
"Query how many pay-to-win points it takes to upgrade from Sixth-Rank Early Stage to Sixth-Rank Peak!"
【 Receiving command... 】
【 Calculating based on the host's current physical data... 】
【 Calculation complete. 】
【 host's current realm: Sixth-Rank Early Stage (San Jiao Master). 】
【 The five basic attributes of Strength, speed, Physique, spirit, and recovery are all: 2000.0 】
【 The basic attributes required for the Sixth-Rank Peak realm are: 10000.0 】
【 Each attribute needs to be increased by: 8000.0 points. 】
【 According to the ratio of 200 pay-to-win points consumed for every 1 point of attribute increased for a Sixth-Rank martial artist. 】
【 Total pay-to-win points required for this upgrade: 8000x5x200 = 8,000,000 points. 】
Eight million points!
Looking at this number, Wang Pingan's breathing became a bit rapid.
But immediately after, a stronger, irrepressible ecstasy rushed to his head like a volcanic eruption!
Eight million!
He was now a "God-tier rich man" with a net worth of 23 million!
A mere eight million was nothing!
"System!"
"Fill it up for me!"
