Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1389: Sunrise Inner City Part 6

The Training Hall Inner Section had turned completely relaxing when Xu Feng started teasing a few members and joking around.

Nobody felt suffocated or nervous anymore.

This kind of rapid shift in the atmosphere took Carmen by surprise. In fact, some other aware members were also stupefied, but kept quiet to avoid ruining the vibe.

After all, they realized Xu Feng was creating a lively and learning environment for them to actually study properly.

Who could learn under an oppressive environment?

"By the way, Guild Leader. Are you really going to wear the novice gear to take the test?" A member got the confidence to raise their hand and ask a question.

Xu Feng turned his attention to the person who asked the question.

"You’re Vaxer, right? A Gunner Class with high agility. What do you think is your strength?"

"Uh, speed?"

Vaxer wasn’t sure why the Guild Leader gave him the answer before asking the question.

Alas, the so-called answer was actually a bait.

"Incorrect!" Xu Feng smiled. "Your class has high agility, but can you move if you get locked down by a warrior class?"

Sure enough, Vaxer’s mouth was left agape when he heard his words. If the warrior class were to lock him down and shackle him, then his speed would indeed be useless.

How can one run away if one’s legs are bound?

"Please enlighten me, Guild Leader." Vaxer cupped his fist and asked respectfully.

Nodding, Xu Feng suddenly curled his lips upward and grinned.

"The correct answer is also speed." He revealed cheekily. And before anyone could voice their opinions, he began to clarify the answer.

"When you said speed, you only thought about being faster than your opponent, right?"

Vaxer nodded his head. That was the norm. As long as he was faster than his enemy, he could easily wipe them out.

"But what happens if your speed gets debuffed or the enemy anticipates your intention already and sets up a trap in advance? Do you have a counter method for that situation?"

"I can use my skills to disrupt and dispel them."

"What if you got silenced?"

"I-I can use utility tools."

"And what would happen if there was a formation that denied utility tools?"

After this series of questioning, Vaxer was finally stumped and incapable of responding.

A moment of silence occurred before Xu Feng resumed his explanation.

"What I said about speed isn’t revolving movement, but critical thinking. As a Swordsman, your speed is inherently faster than most. And it’s precisely so that your brain must also operate two times faster." His tone was solemn and full of authority.

In any MMOs, many players often never calculated their plans many steps ahead and only tried to face them at first glance.

However, real pros made sure to calculate the scenario and have an imaginary simulation regarding the situation. This is why their mental strain was heavy, and they always seemed fatigued despite not actually physically moving.

And this was the main objective of the Training Hall Session 3.1.

It was never about strength, tiers, or even one’s class. It had always been about how one utilized their thinking speed, their surroundings, and attention to detail.

"I know everyone might be confused or even lost, but I hope you can keep what I said in mind." Xu Feng clasped his hands and glanced at Carmen.

"I will now enter the arena to commence session 3.1. With the lecture from earlier, may everyone receive some enlightenment or clues on what I’m doing."

Shortly after saying so, he directly leapt to the arena, whereas Carmen was already on the control panel to start the Training Hall Session 3.1 test.

Because it was a test that required certain authorization to trigger, and only Carmen was available at present to assist him.

"It’s happening."

"Who’s recording this now?"

"Crap, you’re right!"

Just when some were about to pay the fee to record the video, they were suddenly hit with a system warning.

[System Notification: The area is temporarily restricted to any recording devices or tools! Repeated attempts in doing so could result in a penalty!]

"Eh, we’re prohibited from recording?"

"This is depressing!"

While the guild members were ready to cry a river of tears from not being able to rewind to check the demonstration, Carmen suddenly cleared her throat.

"Ahem, to prevent any form of leakage from the demonstration to outsiders. A private recording would be available strictly to members who passed session 3.0 and pay a small amount of GMP to view." She explained.

Realization quickly dawned upon the rest when they heard this explanation.

It sounded nice in general, but almost everyone realized this was another scheme to take away their GMP.

Who could have imagined GMP to be such a precious currency?

The exchange rate nowadays is crazy. Even if you have gold coins, nobody would trade them off.

Still, none of them complained about the arrangement. It was good enough that they even have a demonstration video to reference from now on.

Those who passed after multiple struggles were definitely going to be extra sour. They spent so much effort on what?

However, their teasing was only momentarily when Carmen dropped another bombshell at them.

"Because there will now be a demonstration video to reference from, those who passed the session by themselves were eligible to redeem a certain amount of GMP attributed to their results. Do make sure to check in on Razor or Brutus for that." Carmen announced loudly.

"All hail the Guild Commander!"

"Phew, at least we didn’t go through hell for naught!"

In the blink of an eye, those who passed but still came to check the situation out were relieved that their struggle didn’t go to waste. It would have been a bitter pill to swallow if they struggled hard while others got an easy pass.

"Alright, no more talking. The session is beginning." Carmen made a shushing action and signaled for the rest to look at Xu Feng.

Having said that, Xu Feng had already closed his eyes in preparation for session 3.1, which tests his reaction speed.
