Capítulo 92: Training and Mission

---

After roaming the Organization Section for while, the group went back to the main room of the Multi-Purpose Building and continued with the tour.

They then entered a room that has a symbol of a meditating man.

Upon entering, the scenery changed once more and the group arrived at the wide room with many portals leading to god knows where. Aside from these portals, there are sets of tables and chairs, a small desk with a meditating elder, and a small shelf that contained several books.

"Please don't judge this room according to it's appearance, as this is probably one of the most useful section of this building." Alice hurriedly explained after seeing the confused expressions of the team.

"This is the Training Section of the Multi-Purpose Building." Alice pointed at the portals and continued: "Each of those portal lead to a Cultivation Environments. For example, the red portal leads to an environment rich with Fire energies. Anyone who has a fire affinity will greatly benefit from this room, it helps you raise your affinity with the said element as well a provide other benefits as well."

She then reached out for the shelf and once again provided some pamphlets to the team. "These contained all of the compiled benefits of each room, feel free to browse through them to get a clearer idea of how useful this section is going to be for you."

Doing what she said, Raven and the rest grabbed themselves a chair and read through the contents of the pamphlets.

And just like she said earlier, this Training Section is probably the one of, if not, the most useful section of this building.

Clearing harder missions would sometimes include, not only Merit Points, but also time for to enter of these portals. Based on what they entered, they will be transported into a zone filled with their chosen elements, this alone could raise the speed of their cultivation by at least 50%. Taking the element Fire for example, the more one is exposed to the environment inside the Fire Portal, the greater their achievements towards Fire based attacks could get.

Additionally, according to the records inside the pamphlets, man-made hot springs could also be found inside the portal. The waters on these ponds reaches a scalding temperature, but if one's careful enough, they could use the temperature to cleanse the remaining impurities on their bodies. The most common example of this scenario is dissolving the pill impurities to prevent it from leaving a deep impact to one's cultivation.

If one's perception is truly high, it said that one could even sense 'Aspects' inside. But records of those were extremely scarce.

Each of the rooms has several levels of intensity. Before one enters a portal, one has to talk with the resident elder here since they are the only one who could adjust them.

There are a variety of environments to choose from. Fire, water, earth, wood, lightning, wind, light, dark, metal, and so on. They also have multiple benefits that could aid one to become stronger. But as because of it's greatness, obtaining hours to use would be challenging.

Time could be earned through missions, or exchanging them with merit points. 1 hour of time inside is equivalent to 50 merit points. Those who have stayed long enough in the Inner Branch knew that this is exchange is extremely expensive, so even though they truly wanted to go here, they just can't afford to do so.

After reading the pamphlets, the team now had a better idea of the Training Section, since it wasn't time for them to experience the environments just yet, they decided to leave the section and go through the last room.

The door they entered had a symbol of an unfurled scroll on top.

Upon entering, they only saw a simple and spacious room and a huge board filled with papers pinned on them. There is a stationed elder in the room who's currently discussing something with another student. As per usual, Alice went ahead and introduced the last section of the Multi-Purpose Building.

"This is Mission Section. Just like the name implies, this is where we sign up for missions or submit completed missions." She then pointed at the mission board and added: "The mission board that you see is divided by mission grades, from F-grade missions all the way to S-class missions, everything is compiled in there."

"The rewards of each mission depends on it's grade. Of course the higher it's grade, the more rewards could be received, but that also applies for the dangers of the missions. Just to make you aware, you as part of Genius Class are not permitted to take in any F-grade missions."

When Alice said this, the team was surprised and confused at the same time, but before they could even ask, she was already explaining why.

"The Institute has high expectations from you, and they thought that it's below your level to participate in any of the lower grade missions. The lowest you could go is C-grade missions. I also want to inform you that aside from the Biannual Examination, your mission records would also be taken into perspective to see if you deserve stay in the Genius Class or not. So please take that into consideration."

"Sometimes, missions required a headcount before it could be taken. This applies for some higher grade missions. Only by fulfilling the necessary amount of people, could that mission be considered as taken. If the first batch of people failed to clear the mission, then they won't be able to take up that mission again for another month. This rule is made to give everyone a chance."

"On top of that, as part of Genius Class, you are required to clear an A-grade mission before the Biannual Examinations comes up. So please make sure to plan ahead."

'For someone who was too nervous to meet us before, this girl awfully knows a lot about our class. Who is she?' This is what's bugging Raven's mind for a while now.

It wasn't like she was doing a terrible job at being a tour guide, in fact she is doing an incredible job, and that's what makes him curious. Because she knows too much.

"Feel free to have a look around, we have at least 10 minutes to do so." Alice smiled and let the team gaze over to the mission board.

Raven decided that it's none of his business to think to much about it so he threw the notion at the back of his mind and curiously inspected the mission board.

These are only some of the missions that are currently available on the mission board. Looking at the panel where the C-grade missions are posted, there's at least 50 of them there, as for the higher grade missions, Raven didn't bother to look through them since there will be time for that anyway. He saw remembered what Alice said earlier, that organizations also hands out missions, so he was assuming that students are allowed to take multiple missions in.

Also, as he weighed the difficulty of the missions and compared it to the rewards, he could say that it's alright. It's not stingy but not generous as well. Plus, earning time for the training environments are really rare. It's almost seems like the Institute doesn't want anyone to use them. Though, Raven hadn't really looked at the higher difficulty missions to confirm his conjectures.

The ten minutes of free roam swiftly passed, Alice then lead the team outside of the Mission Section and gave them one more overview of the facilities that they saw just now.

The group then exited the Multi-Purpose Building. They went into the main road and went to the opposite side of the said building. They then arrived at a huge gates, being guarded by some Elders of the school. Confirming their identities, the team went inside and the view of a wide landmass greeted them.

The group different types of abodes, some looked like a villa, some followed a simplistic design, some was just outright strange. The only difference, is that the abodes are at least a few miles away from each other.

"Young Fairies, Young Masters, this place is where your abodes will be built. This space is specifically used by the Genius Class. Please follow me to meet the contractors so that you could discuss the details of your future abode with them."

This revelation truly astounded the group.
