Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1181: Chapter 401: The Logistics Team, Ji Hong’s Impact, The Naturally Sociable Chen Qing, Arrival at Hongmen

......

Everyone was talking at once, almost revealing everything about Ji Hong.

The surrounding people, upon hearing this, didn’t show much shock on their faces.

Ji Hong broke through three days ago, which shook He Yin, Bashang, and all the stationed points within Jiuqu, so this matter is almost known to everyone.

"The price for the Jiao Long Blood has not yet been set by the Camp Supply Department, but with Ji Hong’s breakthrough, the final price should be on par with a Level 6 Spiritual Pill, with each pound expected to be at least 30,000 contribution points."

As Xiao Hen finished speaking, the eyes of the gathered young people suddenly lit up with interest.

30,000 contribution points is not a small amount. With their own finances, it certainly won’t do, but after all, they all have some background. If they can’t manage it on their own, they can rely on their fathers and brothers.

This Jiao Long Blood is something they absolutely cannot miss.

"I originally thought that having a top-level combat body qualification was good enough, but now I see I have been too easily satisfied. If I want to make a greater impact in the camp in the future, if I want to go further, a battle body qualification is the threshold. I must do my utmost to strive for a top-grade battle body qualification!"

A trace of determination flashed across Xiao Hen’s face, and he clenched his fist beneath his sleeve.

Not far from Xiao Hen, Zhao Yuankong thought about his current basic strength, which was just over 98,000 catties, still a bit short of a top-level combat body, and the skin membrane was beginning to be somewhat onerous, leaving him a little defeated. Turning to his sister Zhao Yuandao, he couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, "Sister, your basic strength is already 110,000 catties. Is there any hope to continue striving for a top-grade battle body qualification?"

Zhao Yuandao, upon hearing her brother’s question, showed a somewhat low expression, then shook her head and said, "Probably not much hope, but with Ji Hong as an example, I must do my utmost to delay my breakthrough time. This time it’s the Jiao Long Blood, and with the Lord’s impressive power, who knows what treasures he might place in the Camp Supply Department in the future. You and I should accumulate more contribution points for now, as opportunities may arise unexpectedly."

Upon hearing his sister’s words, Zhao Yuankong recalled how the lord Xia Hong had already transformed the defender-level Yuan Cheng, Lu Yang, and Xu Ning into top-grade battle body qualifications after their breakthroughs, and a glimmer of hope instantly rose in his heart, nodding heavily.

Yuan Bai glanced at his peers Xiao Hen, Zhao Yuandao, and the others, and he naturally understood what they were all thinking upon seeing the expressions on their faces.

"My basic strength is now 99,000 catties, just one step away from a top-level combat body. Before, I thought aiming for a top-level combat body was enough, but now I see it’s far from sufficient. A top-level combat body of 100,000 catties among peers can at most be considered excellent, but not outstanding. I too need to delay my breakthrough time, and although striving for a top-grade battle body qualification may be out of reach, I should at least make my battle body qualification as good as possible!"

After a moment of contemplation, Yuan Bai’s face was also filled with determination.

The sensation caused by Ji Hong’s breakthrough had clearly stimulated Zhao Yuandao, Zhao Yuankong, Xiao Hen, Yuan Bai, and their peers. After all, they’re of similar age, and even if the competitive spirit isn’t considered, vanity alone is enough to make them all look up to Ji Hong.

Xiao Hen and these people are all in their early twenties, slightly older, and tend to hide their inner thoughts. However, the likes of Luo An, Zou Ping, Lu Dong, Zhao Yuanshan, Hong Ye, Liu Peng, Xiao Yan, Luo Cheng, who are only sixteen or seventeen years old, tend to show it more bluntly.

"Zou Ping, I must strive for a top-grade battle body qualification!"

"Me too, my father told me without a top-grade battle body qualification, it will be hard to break through to Xianyang Level in the future!"

"I also want to strive!"

......

The steadfast voices of a group of teenagers rising and falling created a small disturbance within the group, and the older members of the group, hearing the enthusiastic shouts, showed faces of comfort mixed with sighs, unable to help but comment.

"Look, now even breaking through to Cold Resistance Level isn’t a big deal anymore; these kids are all aiming for top-grade battle body qualifications."

"These kids, they’re catching a good time. Back when I was at Five Ape Mountain, even getting a few in the Earth Digging Realm would make the whole camp celebrate!"

"Hahaha, indeed, I’m from Five Ape Mountain too. Back then, we couldn’t find a single Cold Resistance Level there—it was dismal!"

"Cold Resistance Level probably doesn’t mean much now, our Great Xia has at least five or six thousand at Cold Resistance Level, right?"

"Probably, with this Bashang population migration, I’ve heard another five hundred Cold Resistance Levels are to be merged in, around six thousand in total probably."

"Cold Resistance Level certainly doesn’t mean much now; it’s all about strength. We have 58 stationed points across the Great Xia Territory, and it’s said that any official at or above defender level basically has strength at fifteen levels or more. Just breaking through to Cold Resistance Level, unless, like Ji Hong, someone with outstanding qualifications gets noticed by the Dragon Martial Army, one would at most become a soldier in armies like Dragon Slayer or Tiger Leopard."

"Soon, you may not even qualify as a soldier. The Cold Resistance Level soldiers in the Dragon Slayer, Tiger Leopard, and other thirteen armies are increasing. I hear that in the newly established armies: Black Arrow, Qing Jiao, East Sun, and Fei Peng, each already has two hundred at Cold Resistance Level, and the other nine armies are estimated at least three hundred each."

"That’s not right! Just the Cold Resistance Level personnel in these fifteen armies add up to more than five thousand; how many Cold Resistance Levels does our Great Xia really have now?"

Upon hearing this final question, the ongoing heated discussion among them suddenly fell silent, and everyone, including Xiao Hen and Luo An’s group of young people, found themselves looking at each other in confusion.
