Universal Ascension: Starting with SSS-Level Talent

Chapter 16: Preparing for the Dungeon

These past few days, both of them had been busy practicing martial arts techniques.

They hadn’t kept up with their internal energy training.

Li Chengfeng had just finished washing the dishes and sat down on the simple sofa.

Shu Fuyao came to his side, counting on her fingers.

Her eyes wandered, her lips moving slightly. She seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Li Chengfeng saw that she had something to say but was holding back, so he spoke first:

“If you have something to say, just say it.”

Shu Fuyao lowered her head:

“We haven’t practiced our internal energy for a long time, and we’re going to the dungeon tomorrow. How about we… practice our internal energy again? Even if it’s last-minute, it might still help.”

There was nothing embarrassing about practicing, but their method of practice was special.

Practicing meant they had to be in close contact.

For her to bring it up herself was quite embarrassing. Practicing internal energy didn’t tire the muscles. It was just mentally exhausting.

Since they had nothing else to do in the evening, Li Chengfeng agreed:

“Alright, where should we practice? On your bed or mine?”

Shu Fuyao puffed out her cheeks slightly, looking quite cute:

“Can’t we do it on the sofa? Why do we have to go to the bed?”

Li Chengfeng was startled:

“Go to… the bed?”

Shu Fuyao quickly explained:

“I meant get on the bed!”

“Oh, because the bed is spacious. This sofa isn’t very good quality, and it’s narrow. We can’t even stretch our legs.”

The sofa they bought was a cheap one, costing only a few hundred yuan. It was just good enough to sit on.

“Then let’s use your bed.”

“Alright, I’ll go freshen up first. I sweated a lot today, don’t want to stink you out.”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you on the bed!”

“……”

Li Chengfeng was speechless.

Could she not say such provocative things?

School beauty, could you please be more mindful of your words?

You’re making it very easy for people to misunderstand!

After a night of practice, Li Chengfeng reached level 10.6.

Due to her slightly lesser talent, Shu Fuyao lagged behind at level 10.2.

——

Upon waking up early, the first thing Li Chengfeng did was,

“Sign in.”

【Ding! Weekly sign-in successful.】

【Received buff: Dungeon drop rate increased by 200%, internal energy progress increased by 100%, martial arts progress increased by 100%, duration 7 days. Applies to self.】

Hey!

You’ve really outdone yourself, system!

Li Chengfeng cheered.

This system was definitely intelligent.

Knowing he was going to tackle a dungeon, it gave him a drop rate buff. Additionally, both martial arts and internal energy were boosted.

That meant treasures, internal energy, and martial arts would all benefit.

Nothing could be more fitting.

Li Chengfeng washed his face and brushed his teeth.

The diligent Shu Fuyao woke up earlier than him and sensibly prepared breakfast.

After breakfast, Shu Fuyao bought some first aid supplies for treating injuries. It was inevitable to get hurt during battles in the dungeon.

The two of them then set off for the local Station 6108.

This station was the closest to them. It served a community of 10 million people in the surrounding area.

The dungeon had five difficulty levels:

Normal, Hard, Super, Hell, and Legendary.

Normal difficulty was the most commonly challenged level.

There were no entry requirements for this difficulty.

One could directly go to the station and teleport in.

For difficulties above Normal, one had to personally go to the dungeon entrance to teleport in.

Both of them had internal energy at level 10.

This level had a solo dungeon, a duo dungeon, a ten-person team dungeon, and a large 100-person raid dungeon.

The two of them were too lazy to team up with others and only planned to challenge the level 10 duo dungeon.

Li Chengfeng had already looked it up yesterday.

The level 10 duo dungeon was called “Braving the World Society.” It was a dungeon derived from “The Storm Riders.”

Li Chengfeng was familiar with the characters, having watched the TV series.

The dungeon had a total of two zones.

Zone One was the front courtyard of the World Society, guarded by Wind and Cloud.

That was, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.

Zone Two was the main hall of the World Society, guarded by the leader, Xiongba.

The dungeon’s storyline was set during the period when Wind and Cloud were sweeping the world for Xiongba.

Generally speaking, challenging the dungeon required wearing battle armor and carrying fine weapons.

But Li Chengfeng and Shu Fuyao were too poor.

Even a set of ordinary battle armor cost tens of thousands of yuan. The money they had together wasn’t enough to buy even one set of ordinary armor. And the ordinary weapons dropped in the dungeon were also priced in the tens of thousands of yuan.

So the two of them could only use the 1,000-yuan artificial weapons, and they were wearing sportswear and sneakers.

The two of them walked to the station, which was surrounded by a rainbow wall.

Following the navigation, they found the service area for levels 10-20.

They set up the dungeon they wanted to challenge: Braving the World Society.

They set the dungeon drop mode: Human.

They set the dungeon loot mode: Personal loot.

The two of them then walked towards the vortex-like portal.
