Chapter 394: Sapphire Star Field

“The three of you participated in the previous combat trial, right?” Chu Nan asked, “I haven’t had the chance to ask how the exact situation of the combat trial is?”

Although Chu Nan was stripped of his qualifications to participate in the combat trial because he was suspected of cheating, this did not stop the three of them.

For the large number of points rewarded by the combat trial, the three of them signed up to participate in the test. In the end, not only did Saar smoothly obtain the qualifications to participate, but even Tanaka Iyoko, who should be the weakest, actually won three consecutive rounds and directly obtained the qualifications.

As for Mondeo, although he fell into the loser’s bracket because he encountered Feng Mingxi from the beginning, he still tenaciously fought his way out and also obtained the qualifications to participate.

In the end, among the four people in this dormitory, the other three had all participated in this precious first combat trial. On the contrary, Chu Nan, the strongest, could not go.

“Heh, I’ve wanted to tell you for a long time, but I’ve always been stopped by Saar. He said that it’s not good to mention this in front of you…” When he heard Chu Nan ask about the actual combat trial, Mondeo immediately became excited and even became taller, “Let me tell you, going out to the actual combat trial is much more fun than staying in the academy. Do you know where we went?”

“Hmm?” Chu Nan was a little surprised, “From the sound of it, you went very far?”

It was indeed as Mondeo had said. Perhaps because of Chu Nan’s feelings, no one had mentioned the combat trial in front of him recently, so he still did not know what was going on.

Originally, he was only curious to inquire in order to prepare for the next time he went to the Combat Trial. Now that he heard Mondeo say this, he was really interested.

“It’s not very far. It’s only more than a thousand light-years,” Mondeo replied with a despicable smile.

“More than a thousand light-years? Didn’t that mean that they had all left the federation?” Chu Nan was stunned.

“Hmph, that’s right. We left the federation.” Mondeo looked proud. “You didn’t expect this, did you? The first combat trial we participated in was held in the Sapphire Star Field!”

“Sapphire Star Field?” Chu Nan was even more stunned.

The so-called Sapphire Star Field was definitely not as beautiful as its name sounded.

In fact, this was a Star Field located outside the border of the United States of Melaita and at the outermost edge of the Orion Arm.

Because the location was too remote and there were no rich resources, although this Star Field had long been discovered, it had never been developed and used. Even the nearest United States of Melaita could not be bothered to pay attention to this Star Field. They could not even be bothered to take it under their name.

However, such a Star Field had a stargate that could directly cross tens of thousands of light-years and connect the Orion Arm and the Perseus Arm. It became the best passageway from the Orion Arm to the Perseus Arm outside the Galactic Center.

However, it was because of the existence of this stargate that this Star Field had become extremely chaotic.

The Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance controlled the entire Perseus Arm, but it was far from being as enthusiastic as the Noctem Chamber of Commerce in communicating with the outside world. Under normal circumstances, the people on the other two arms were not welcome to head to the Perseus Arm. Therefore, it was not a good choice to head to the Perseus Arm from this stargate.

On the contrary, some fugitives and cosmic pirates often flowed over from the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance, causing this Star Field to be in chaos.

According to some of the comments circulating in the several countries outside the Orion Arm, these guys were actually supported by the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance and were deliberately let to cause trouble.

Of course, there was never any evidence, so the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance would never admit it.

Chu Nan did not expect that the first combat test Star Cloud Academy chose for the new students would be to come to this chaotic Star Field.

“Then… what did you do in the actual combat trial?” Chu Nan could not help but ask curiously.

“About that… there’s actually nothing fun about it…” At this point, Mondeo was a little discouraged, “The academy threw us over. I originally thought that they would let us see how powerful that Star Field is and see if we can encounter all kinds of strange things like in the legends. In the end, they still sent us to fight ferocious beasts.”

“Hmm? Fighting ferocious beasts? Running so far to fight ferocious beasts?” Chu Nan was a little puzzled, “Are there many monsters in the Sapphire Star Field?”

“Yes, there are a total of four pleasant habitable planets in that Star Field. There are also three planets with modification values. Two of them are temporarily uninhabited and are all ferocious beasts. The academy threw us there to play with the ferocious beasts,” Mondeo said.

“If you’re only fighting ferocious beasts, isn’t the Beast Garden Planet during the entrance test very good? Why did you have to run so far?” Chu Nan felt very strange.

“Who knows what the academy is thinking?” Mondeo shrugged, “However, the level of the ferocious beasts on that planet is not very high. They’re only slightly stronger than the ones we encountered in the entrance examination. We’ve encountered many C-rank ferocious beasts, but most of them are still D-rank ferocious beasts, so there’s no danger.”

“Then? The 50 of you returned after fighting ferocious beasts for more than a week? There’s nothing else?”

“No.” This time, Saar shook his head before Mondeo could. “The arrangements of the academy are quite simple. The rules are basically according to the entrance test. I guess… the academy probably hasn’t done this many times. They’re using us to experiment.”

“That’s not right, right? The academy must have had combat trials in the past. Could it be that those senior students are like this every time?”

“I’ve asked a few senior students. They said that this is considered the rule of Star Cloud Academy. The first combat trial of new students is to fight ferocious beasts and nothing else. It’s possible that you’ll do something else in the future trial, but no one knows now.” Saar paused for a moment and asked, “What? Chu Nan, do you want to participate in the next combat trial? With your ability to improve martial techniques, just the martial technique database can increase your points much faster than participating in the combat trial, right?”

“That’s right. Chu Nan, you can easily find an F-rank martial technique to modify and earn dozens of points. If you get dozens of them a day, it’s comparable to us painstakingly fighting ferocious beasts for a week.” Mondeo looked at Chu Nan with envy, “If I were you, I might as well stay in the martial technique information. In any case, I can obtain the points quickly and there’s no danger. I can also study martial techniques. How good is that?”

“If only it was that simple.” Chu Nan shook his head.

In fact, when the ultimate arbitration announced his victory, Chu Nan had indeed thought of quickly increasing his points.

However, after Sun Xiangren’s reminder, Chu Nan also discovered that if he continued to do this, he would definitely waste too much time studying martial techniques that were not very meaningful to him. It would not be worth it.

As a martial artist, the most important way to improve was naturally to participate in actual combat.

Therefore, he would definitely participate in the next combat trial.
