Infinite Awakening: My Exp Doubles Everyday novel Chapter 202

Chapter 202: Back To School [PART 1]

The fifth-grade defensive formation was truly impressive in its capabilities. It could completely withstand the combined attacks of a thousand Golden Core experts for an entire month. Even more remarkably, it could hold against a hundred Nascent Soul experts for a full week, and could take up to a hundred full-power strikes from a peak Soul Formation expert.

Xiang Yu was genuinely amazed by these specs. The defensive power was almost absurd when compared to the previous one that was just a rank below. It seemed just like how the difference in power grew higher the higher one cultivated, the formations and other props were the same.

The attacking formation proved equally impressive. This offensive array could deliver up to a hundred full-power strikes equivalent to those of a peak Soul Formation expert. And just like the previous sixth-grade one, if enhanced through the use of soul crystals, it could deliver another hundred soul-based attacks at the Soul Formation level.

Still, although the formations were undeniably impressive in their capabilities, they also came with significant downsides that couldn’t be ignored. The most crucial problem was the astronomical cost of maintaining them. The spirit stones required to keep these formations running was simply staggering.

Taking all his current wealth into consideration, Xiang Yu calculated that if he wanted to keep the formations always active and running at full capacity, he would drain his entire treasury in about a week. The maintenance costs were that enormous.

He sighed deeply as he carefully set the completed formations aside for future use. He thought to himself that luckily, they had successfully negotiated those lucrative deals with the five major sects, and wealth would be flowing in soon enough. When they delivered the first batch of requested resources and received payment, he would be able to maintain the formations for much longer periods without bankrupting the sect.

For now, he would keep them safely stored though. Fortunately, Li Yao was currently present at the sect, so there wasn’t nearly as much immediate danger as there would be when she was away.

Xiang Yu stood up from his crafting position and stretched his stiff muscles. It was time to practice some medicine as well as recruit members for the other schools of secondary professions.

...

At the bottom of the mountain, a large crowd had already gathered after completing their daily work of dangerous missions, waiting for the Grand Elder to check on their injuries and conditions. There was also another distinct group assembled by Liu Qing. It consisted of disciples who wanted to try entering the secondary professions schools, as well as those who had previously passed the test to join the School of Cooking.

Looking at the two separate groups, Xiang Yu thought to himself that he really needed a proper place for these people since he was establishing a pavilion. Although his junior sister had suggested giving him his own peak, he didn’t feel like having to constantly travel between different peaks. He much preferred if everything was in one location. He made a mental note to commission a building for the Secondary Professions Pavilion.

He walked up to the professions group first, his eyes scanning the eager faces before him. "Is this everyone?" he asked Liu Qing.

"Some people are out on missions and others haven’t shown up yet," Liu Qing replied, gesturing toward the assembled disciples.

Xiang Yu nodded thoughtfully. "Good. We can work with this number. For those who haven’t shown up yet, they can try again during the next recruitment period," he announced to the group.
