My short trip to H City has come to an end.

I encountered two zombie hordes during the trip, but fortunately there was only one mid-level zombie among them, so they were dealt with relatively easily.

However, Lin Xi was surprised that Lu Nan actually joined the battle.

When they returned to the Wind Eagle Regiment to report, they only had two days of vacation left.

However, Lu Nan did not rest these past two days, but went directly to find Yun.

"I want to practice more."

Yun raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise in her eyes. "What? You've figured it out?"

Lu Nan nodded. "I want to become stronger."

Yun looked at him with curiosity, "Who provoked you?"

He hadn't forgotten how unhappy the guy looked when he first joined the elite team. He had to beat him up to make him behave a little.

Looking back, Yun was still a little envious, because with the existence of the Lu Nan simulator, every attack he made was weakened by at least fifty percent.

So he didn't hold back that day, otherwise he would have been looked down upon by him.

A hint of confusion flashed across Lu Nan's face, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why are those newcomers so amazing?"

Yun thought about it seriously. "First of all, their abilities are quite special. Actually, your abilities aren't bad either, but they work much, much harder than you. Lu Nan, you've wasted too much time."

Lu Nan clenched his fist. "I want to practice more."

"I just heard it."

"No, what I mean is, I want to use the entire rest week next week for extra training."

Hearing this, Yun was a little embarrassed, "If you want to practice more, won't that waste my rest time?"

"What do you want? Crystal cores or money? I can give you either!"

The organization gave them an extra reward upon their return.

He still has some money and two mid-level zombie crystal cores on him.

Yun smiled and said, "I want a disciple who satisfies me. Can you do that?"

Lu Nan was taken aback by his response and was momentarily at a loss for how to react.

Yun continued, "Lu Nan, you have a criminal record. You say one thing and do another. It's hard for me to trust you."

Lu Nan's eyes darkened. Indeed, he had been too self-destructive before, and he felt that everyone around him was gradually losing faith in him...

Just when he thought all hope was lost, Yun spoke up again, "How about this, go back and think it over carefully these next two days. Once you've made up your mind, tell me during training next week. After all, I don't want my apprentice, whom I've sacrificed my rest time and painstakingly trained, to encounter some setback halfway through training and then come to me saying he wants to give up."

Yun looked at him seriously, "I don't like this kind of apprentice, Lu Nan. Next week, please come and tell me decisively if you can do it, then I will agree to give it a try with you."

“No need to wait until next week, I can make a decision now.” Lu Nan’s eyes were full of determination.

Yun stared into his eyes, scrutinizing them for a few seconds, then smiled.

For the next three months, the five of them trained together and worked together to improve their teamwork, which greatly enhanced Lu Nan's close-combat skills.

It's a new week again.

Inside the elevator.

"I feel like I can beat him today!" Chen Jin said confidently.

Cheng Sheng was still a little confused. "What?"

"That opponent from the simulation battle!"

Cheng Sheng's eyes widened. "Don't brag!"

Jiang Chuan spoke up, "I also think we can have a different opponent today."

"Have you leveled up to level five yet?" Cheng Sheng was so busy he couldn't keep up, bragging to himself on one side and then continuing to brag on the other.

Jiang Chuan replied calmly, "No."

Cheng Sheng finally felt a little relieved. She thought to herself, "I knew it! They practiced together, so why did they level up so much faster?"

"You think you're cultivating immortality? Trying to challenge opponents far above your level!"

Jiang Chuan crossed his arms and said matter-of-factly, "My ability is high-damage type, so it's not surprising that I could defeat someone of a higher level, right?"

That's definitely the truth, and Cheng Sheng was instantly speechless!

No, she needs to work even harder!

I heard that Lu Nan has been practicing like crazy lately, like he's going to die. If they all pass this test and he's the only one left behind, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?

Lin Xi remained silent.

However, since they brought up the matter, Lin Xi also started to have some ideas.

Actually, it's alright. After all, they've been doing one-on-one sparring for so long that they've pretty much figured out each other's weaknesses. Today, they can definitely give it a try.

However, the opponent's special ability is indeed a bit troublesome.

The advanced version of the metal-based enhancement makes it difficult for him to feel pain.

Upon reaching the sixth floor, the group put on their glasses and began their battle.

The training instructors were waiting here in advance, as always.

The group started fighting as soon as they entered!

On the open lawn not far from the building, Lu Nan and Yun were practicing their moves.

Lu Nan kept dodging, but Yun finally couldn't help but stop.

"You've already forgotten what I told you yesterday?"

Lu Nan stopped. "I haven't forgotten. You said we should find every opportunity and angle to attack, and launch an attack first. Even if we can't seize the initiative, it will be enough to distract the opponent and weaken their attack."

"Since you remember, why don't you attack?" Yun said very seriously. "You keep dodging, which only gives your opponent the opportunity to concentrate on attacking you. This is a vicious cycle. It only depletes your own energy and does nothing to help you. In the end, you may even die from your opponent's attack because you have no energy left to escape."

Lu Nan began with difficulty, "Because I simulated various attack plans in the simulator..."

"What was the result?"

"At most, my success rate is only 12%."

"So you're giving up the attack just because the success rate is too low?"

Lu Nan lowered his head, acquiescing.

Twelve percent, less than half of half. He really didn't understand how such an attack could achieve his stated goal.

He raised his voice and continued, "Again!"

Lu Nan closed his eyes and re-entered the simulation space...

The people on this virtual battlefield went all out, leaving the opposing sparring partners stunned. In particular, the other members of the Gold Badge team who had been holding back were quickly overtaken.

"Great job, Jiang Chuan, you've made great progress."

Jiang Chuan smiled. He used to keep his distance from him, which meant that when they got close and fought, the other man didn't even have time to react before taking several hits.

A gash was cut open near his heart, and he squinted at Jiang Chuan's Han sword.

Jiang Chuan had previously used this knife as a medium for his superpowers, which made him overlook the fact that the knife itself was a sharp weapon, and one could easily have their throat slit if they weren't careful.

"Looks like I have no choice but to take it seriously."
