When they graduate from the training camp, the most likely outcome is dying on the battlefield.

How difficult it is to survive.

The Reverse Tide Army's warrior training system is like winnowing sands from the waves; only a very few can become top warriors.

The vast majority of warriors will meet their end after endlessly revolving wars.

In Ghost Pupil's eyes, the warrior's destination is to run wildly until they die, which left him somewhat uncomfortable.

In this time of interaction, he has come to consider not a few training camp participants as close friends, brothers, unwilling to see them walking towards death on the predetermined path.

Just now Ghost Pupil asked him why he wanted to cultivate "Force," what he didn't say out loud was his true thought:

"I want to become stronger, to take care of these brothers on the battlefield."

These words were too sentimental, speaking them aloud would definitely invite Tongzi's ridicule.

"It's getting late, rest early, tomorrow's battle transformation course is very important."

"You sleep first, let me be melancholic for a moment."

"Sentimental, if you can't learn it, then don't, no need to be stubborn." Ghost Pupil downed the liquor in the bottle, turned, and climbed into his bed.

Soon, snoring sounds arose.

Taking a large swig from the bottle, feeling a warm surge spread within, Li Zheng fell into contemplation.

What exactly should he do to save these brothers?

As a player, he fears no challenge.

But this invincible mindset is limited to himself; with his abilities, he simply cannot change the future of his brothers in the training camp.

Especially after witnessing Floating Tomb take action, he realized his power is too insignificant.

On an actual battlefield, he can't even alter a small-scale battle direction, let alone influence the course of an entire war.

"Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"

At this moment, the voice of Killing Heart asking was heard in the team chat channel.

"Thinking about the brothers in the training camp destined to die on the battlefield, it's a bit hard to bear."

Faced with the Liver Emperor Group brothers, Li Zheng didn't hide his feelings, speaking his thoughts truthfully.

"Hey, I've thought about this too, but with our strength, we simply can't change their fate." Chi Tu lifted the curtain, revealing his head.

"Honestly, if they truly went to the battlefield and encountered danger, I hope they'd become deserters; but they would rather die in battle than live in humiliation." Leopard Head Zero Charge also poked his head out, sighing.

"Actually, there's only one answer to this, and that's for us to become strong enough to protect their safety."

The Family Shared Godfather's response was precisely what Li Zheng was thinking.

"Family is right, let's sleep, and continue growing stronger tomorrow."

At this moment, Li Zheng had an endless thirst for power.

Just as the Family Shared Godfather said, there's only one correct answer to this question.

That is to become powerful enough to change others' Life Souls.

Even someone like Floating Tomb, in the Demigod Realm, is not his growth endpoint; he has to be stronger than Floating Tomb, possessing the strength to protect his training camp brothers.

...

Next day.

The morning sky hadn't fully brightened, the morning mist outside the floor-to-ceiling windows surged, shrouding the training camp in a thin layer of morning fog.

At this moment, the tranquility was shattered by a deafening drumbeat.

Subsequently, the drumbeat became rapid.

Dong—dong! Dong!

The drumbeat resembled claps of thunder, striking directly at every participant's heart, awakening all the training camp participants from their slumber.

"Get up, assemble."

As the captain of room 27, Ghost Pupil's shout promptly followed, a group of people quickly got up and charged in the direction of the training ground.

The mountain wind of the morning was fierce, carrying a chilling intensity.

But to the vigorous training camp participants, this bit of cold was insignificant.

They quickly lined up neatly on the grounds, waiting for the instructor to arrive.

Li Zheng's squad was in the 27th row.

After finding his position and standing firm, Li Zheng yawned, bleary-eyed.

In fact, with his current physical fitness, not sleeping for days in the game was no problem, he could totally endure it.

But with the inhumane high-intensity training in the camp, sleep became a necessary process for physical rest.

"Get spirited, be wary of the Stone Man suddenly flying over and hitting you later." Ghost Pupil glared at the languid-looking Li Zheng.

"Got it, got it." Li Zheng said, stretching and then straightening up.

While waiting, the silhouette of Chief Instructor Shi Xiuluo appeared above the formation, arrogantly standing in the air.

Glancing over the array of participants, Shi Xiuluo nodded sternly and said:

"Today's lesson is of extraordinary significance to you, concerning your future growth… After I have explained all about the combat transformation, you'll have a day to decide…"

Listening to Shi Xiuluo's explanation, Li Zheng was curious.

Combat transformation, this wasn't his first time hearing about it.

Before the course began, he had asked Ghost Pupil what exactly combat transformation as told by Shi Xiuluo was.

Ghost Pupil's answer was, a shortcut to growth.

Under normal circumstances, for a warrior to become strong, apart from gaining strength from the War God Seal in battles.

They also need to forge their bodies by absorbing spiritual particles, enhancing physical fitness.

This process is carried out in three synchronized steps.

First is flesh enhancement, letting spiritual power permeate the flesh, strengthening cells to make the body tougher.

Next is bone tempering, with spiritual power penetrating the bones, its hardness and density markedly boosted under the spiritual energy's refining, capable of withstanding greater impacts, also better supporting the fleshly body's movements.

Lastly is meridian expansion, nurturing the meridians with spiritual power, making spiritual power operate more smoothly.
