307: Three months of intensive training

“Soul Devouring Bees!”

Hearing that Huang Chen intended to leave the Soul Devouring Bee Swarm behind, all the Elf Clan members present exclaimed in excitement.

What kind of combat power do Soul Devouring Bees possess?

Although a million-strong army bombarding them rhythmically could still withstand the Soul Devouring Bees' charge, if Trial Takers were involved and you couldn't continuously stack thousands of skills to block the Bee Swarm, then as long as the Soul Devouring Bees broke through, even a ten-million-strong army would be wiped out in an instant.

Elia's eyes were slightly red with excitement. She rose again, leading the elders in a deep bow: “God Huang’s great kindness, the Elf Clan will never forget! With the Bee Swarm guarding us, we have no more worries!”

Elise was even more moved beyond words. She quietly squeezed Huang Chen's hand under the table, her eyes glistening with tears, and whispered, “Husband… thank you.”

The Soul Devouring Bee Swarm, no matter which area it was placed in, could directly change the situation, and Huang Chen directly left it behind.

This protection was not only for her people but also for her.

Huang Chen turned his hand to hold her soft little hand, smiling gently at her, everything unspoken.

The atmosphere of the banquet instantly reached its peak, filled with hope and joy.

After the banquet, Huang Chen placed Little Hu's beehive in the wilderness outside Satellite City No. 1 of the Elf Clan, allowing it to develop freely.

That night, Huang Chen and his group also moved into the City Lord's Mansion in Satellite City No. 1. Huang Chen did not plan to stay in the Elf Clan for the full 48 hours; he intended to spend one night with Elise and leave tomorrow.

After all, there were still many bosses waiting for him at the Mirror Shadow Tower to improve his strength. The unchanging truth in this world was that as long as you had money, power, and strength, anything you desired would be easily obtained.

However, that night, when Huang Chen found Elise, she indicated she couldn't make it at all.

Immediately, she thought of her grandmother's suggestion.

So, she called her three cousins: Eliza, Ilins, and Imenglu.

After system evaluation, all three scored 99 points.

Although 99 points could not currently increase the goddess record level, it could increase Huang Chen's potential points. Huang Chen, of course, accepted them with tears... The next day, when Huang Chen saw the 12,480 potential points added to his panel (the Elf Clan's entire family had a base bone structure of 80, and the three women were level 53), he felt it was all worth it.

But when he saw Elia smiling so widely her mouth couldn't close, Huang Chen felt as if he had lost out... Soon, as 8 o'clock arrived, the Asura Battlefield opened on time.

Huang Chen furiously accumulated another 150,000 points, bringing his total points to 330,000.

As soon as he left the Asura Battlefield, Huang Chen immediately led his people back to Area 49101, continuing to bring the 110,000 Forbidden City inner disciples and above to the Mirror Shadow Tower.

After Zi Han set up the Five Elements Deceiving Heaven Grand Array, the 110,000 people began their special training again, just as arranged last time.

Time passed day by day in the Asura Battlefield and special training.

Three months later.

The skill realms of the 110,000 Forbidden City Legion members undergoing special training had basically reached the Great Accomplishment realm a month ago.

According to Tie Shengnan's feedback, in the past month, the specially trained Forbidden City Legion seemed to have reached a bottleneck in terms of attack power, defense power, and evasion ability. It seemed that after all skills reached the Great Accomplishment realm, the Legion's improvement entered a bottleneck, and progress became extremely slow.

However, Huang Chen and his Harem members continued to make significant progress this month. Tie Shengnan even elevated her Returning Wind Falling Goose technique to the pinnacle of perfection, as if she had endless potential... Inside the Five Elements Deceiving Heaven Grand Array, Huang Chen was currently fighting four bosses alone.

Two months ago, he could barely retreat unscathed under the siege of three bosses. To increase the pressure, Zi Han introduced another boss.

The addition of this boss was not a simple 3+1=4 effect; it directly reset Huang Chen, leaving him bruised and battered after every special training session.

“Boom!” The Ice Soul Demon Bear King's punch grazed Huang Chen's body and directly smashed a deep pit into the hard ground.

Just as Huang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, the Earth-Splitting Mammoth behind him suddenly launched a Savage Charge.

Huang Chen caught a glimpse of the enormous figure behind him from the corner of his eye. At this point, with his current abilities, dodging was no longer possible.

“I can only take it head-on!”

“Black and Yellow Body!”

“Golden Bell Shield!”

The neural reflexes honed over three months of special training immediately allowed Huang Chen to make the most appropriate response.

A massive force slammed into Huang Chen's back. In that instant, the gold element within Huang Chen's body seemed to be activated and ignited. A golden energy, more refined and potent than when skills were previously activated, surged and flowed through all his meridians, bones, and flesh with unprecedented smoothness and intensity, then perfectly merged with the circulating patterns of the Black and Yellow Body and Golden Bell Shield.

“Boom!”

Huang Chen was directly sent flying dozens of meters by the Earth-Splitting Mammoth. However, the Savage Charge, which originally would have dealt 800,000 damage to him, now only took about 400,000 of his health.

【Ding! Congratulations, your Black and Yellow Body has reached the pinnacle of perfection! You are undergoing marrow cleansing and bone tempering, bone structure +30!】

【Ding! Congratulations, your Golden Bell Shield has reached the pinnacle of perfection! You are undergoing marrow cleansing and bone tempering, bone structure +35!】

Two system prompts sounded one after another in Huang Chen's mind, and a look of great joy appeared on his face.

“Finally... Great Accomplishment!”

For these three months of special training, he was beaten black and blue almost every day. The more he was beaten, the faster his defensive skills improved naturally.

Just two months ago, he had vaguely felt he was touching the bottleneck of his two defensive skills, but he had been unable to break through.

Today, his wish was finally granted, so how could he not be excited?

Before he could lament, the Frost Demon Wolf had already opened its bloody maw and was biting at him.

Huang Chen clenched his fist, feeling the surging gold element within him.

“Let me have a good fight with you all!”

Then, he moved three steps to the left, simultaneously drawing his demon slayer, and directly swung a Returning Wind Falling Goose at the demon wolf's waist.

Huang Chen struck and retreated, dodging the Ice Soul Demon Bear King's claw attack, then followed with a Soul Severing Stab connected to Blood Battle in Eight Directions, taking away nearly 60 million health from the Ice Soul Demon Bear King.

However, this strike also exposed Huang Chen directly to the fists of the Mountain-Moving Demonic Ape... Half an hour later, with the Frost Demon Wolf falling, all four bosses were killed by Huang Chen.

Huang Chen fought this battle with great exhilaration. This was the first time he had counterattacked since the special training began. Although he was still bruised and battered, there was an unspeakable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

After killing the four bosses, Huang Chen flew to Zi Han's side, looking at her proudly. His expression was like a child who scored 100 points, waiting for praise from their parents.

“Hmph!” Zi Han snorted disdainfully, and said indifferently, “Noobs pecking at each other…”

Although she said that, a trace of almost imperceptible admiration flashed in Zi Han's eyes.

“You…”

Huang Chen silently swung his demon slayer, let out a frustrated sigh, and then said seriously, “I think the people below seem to have hit a bottleneck... it seems hard to improve further even if they continue training!”

Zi Han blinked her large eyes upon hearing this and said, “I know... they have indeed reached a bottleneck. It would be hard to progress even if they trained for another hundred years like this.”

“Holy crap!” Huang Chen cursed loudly, “You knew and didn't say anything earlier, letting them waste a month's time for nothing here?!”

“I only care if you can improve and not hold me back! As for your subordinates, whether they waste time or not, what does that have to do with me?”
