The
next morning, they arrived early at the central square of Blazing City, in front of a building resembling a medieval church.
This was one of Blazing City's unique features: a fire-attribute simulated environment cultivation room!
Standing before the simulated cultivation room, Wang Qi couldn't help but marvel at the activity level of his soul power.
"As expected of Blazing City's unique feature, just standing outside, I felt my soul power circulating much faster, at least no worse than cultivating in the blacksmith's shop."
"If I had come directly to Blazing City after leaving home, I could have reached level ten in soul power at least six months earlier."
Yesterday, Wang Qi had talked a lot about Blazing City with Brother Fire Dragon. Among the things Wang Qi was most concerned about, fire-attribute herbs were immediately ruled out. Almost 80% of the soul masters in Blazing City were fire-attribute, and fire-attribute herbs were almost instantly sold out on the market. It would be difficult for an outsider like Wang Qi to buy fire-attribute herbs in Blazing City.
Of course, even without buying herbs helpful for fire-attribute soul master cultivation, one could still quickly increase their cultivation level.
To attract fire-attribute soul masters to reside there permanently, Blazing City specially built a simulated environment training room in the central square.
The simulated environment training room is divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The beginner level corresponds to soul warriors and soul masters, the intermediate level to great soul masters, soul venerables, and soul sect leaders, and the advanced level to those above soul king.
Since it's temporarily impossible to obtain medicinal herbs helpful for fire-attribute soul master cultivation, experiencing the simulated environment training room is a good idea.
"Hello, are you looking to rent your training room? What is your soul master level? What level of training room would you like to rent?"
A woman with a hot figure, wearing a red leather jacket, greeted Wang Qi as he entered.
"Level 13 soul master, first time in Blazing City, could you please explain the differences between these training rooms?"
"First time here? Xiao Meng, you go down first, I'll take care of this young man." A tall woman wearing a light red veil emerged from behind the bar.
"Young man, you must be quite young. Are you here in Blazing City to enroll in school or to cultivate?"
"Do I need this information to cultivate in the simulated environment training room?" Wang Qi frowned, looking at the beautiful woman who had approached him, a slight displeasure on his face.
"Of course not. But besides being the owner of the simulated environment training room, I'm also the admissions director of Blazing Academy. Alright, since you're not interested in this, then forget it. Xiao Meng, come over and explain the fees and precautions for the training room to the young man."
Seeing that Wang Qi wasn't interested in what she was saying, and even seemed somewhat resistant, the tall woman didn't bother making a scene and went back to the counter to apply her nail polish.
This kind of laid-back work attitude was something Wang Qi had loved in his previous life.
There were three levels of training rooms, corresponding to one silver soul coin per day, one gold soul coin per day, and to enter the advanced training room, one needed to join Blazing City.
Xiao Meng took down a plaque marked number 188 from the wall and handed it to Wang Qi before going to attend to other guests.
Holding the number tag, Wang Qi arrived at the corresponding training room. As soon as he pushed open the door, he felt an extremely rich fire-attribute energy rushing towards him. Feeling the active soul power within his body, Wang Qi knew that the money was well spent.
The training room was not large, less than five square meters. Apart from a futon, the only things inside were the rubies embedded in the walls, floor, and ceiling.
These rubies, as described by Xiao Meng, are an extremely precious and reusable resource. Once their internal energy is depleted, their fire-attribute energy can be restored through sunlight.
Not wanting to waste time, Wang Qi immediately sat on the futon and began meditating. This environment, with its extremely dense fire-attribute energy, was incredibly beneficial for fire-attribute soul masters.
He could visibly feel his soul power increasing, and Wang Qi even had a feeling that if he continued to cultivate here, he could break through to level 20 Great Soul Master by the age of eleven.
However, what Wang Qi didn't know was that other fire-attribute soul masters cultivating in this environment couldn't match his cultivation speed at all.
Even with the same aptitude, the difference in cultivation speed was at least 50%.
Thus, cultivating for the first time in such a dense fire-attribute energy environment, Wang Qi unknowingly fell into deep meditation.
Just as Wang Qi entered deep meditation, a boy and a girl, who looked six parts alike and wore the uniforms of the Blazing Fire Academy, entered the simulated environment cultivation room.
"Auntie, Huo Wu and I went to Blazing Fire Canyon to get our second spirit ring a while ago. By the way, have you found any promising talents here recently? Our Blazing Fire Academy team's strength in this year's All-Continent Elite Spirit Master Tournament isn't looking too good."
The person who came was none other than Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, the captain and vice-captain of the next All-Continent Elite Spirit Master Tournament.
"Promising talents? There aren't that many promising talents. Do you think everyone is like you two, able to break through to the Great Spirit Master level at the age of ten?" The tall woman didn't even look up, picking at her nails while inwardly complaining that she hadn't seen any promising talents, but had encountered an annoying brat.
Just thinking about Wang Qi's wary eyes made the tall woman angry.
"No one? If not, then so be it. Blazing Fire Academy has little hope in this year's All-Continent Elite Spirit Master Tournament. Everything depends on Huo Wushuang and me in the next one. When we break through to the Spirit Master level and take the fusion route, we should be able to get good results."
Huo Wushuang was a little helpless. He took two plaques from the bar and was about to go upstairs to cultivate when the tall woman called out to the two siblings.
"Next year? If your goal is the next year, then we've found a suitable candidate here today. Although his talent isn't as good as yours, if he trains at Blazing Academy in eight years, his strength will at least reach the level of a high-level Soul Venerable."
"As for whether you can persuade him to join Blazing Academy, that depends on your abilities. Let me warn you beforehand, that brat has a terrible temper, but the best way to deal with this kind of person is to beat him up. This crazy girl."
The sexy woman saw Huo Wu preparing to drag the person out of the training room after hearing the words "beat him up," and Huo Wushuang quickly stopped her.
"My goodness, you won't rest until you've thoroughly offended someone! Don't you know that disturbing someone during meditation is the worst thing you can do?"
"Auntie, could you please keep an eye on that person for me? We're short a few teammates this year who can help me and Huo Wu. If possible, I'd like to talk to him in person."
"Let's go, Huo Wu, we should go upstairs to cultivate. Don't forget our plan: to break through to Soul Master and obtain our third Soul Ring before we turn thirteen."
"Don't cry if I leave you behind then."
