Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

This is indeed the truth. With Great Xia's currently abundant supply of beast meat, Xiang Liang will definitely reach the peak of the Logging Realm by June next year, so the hope of hitting the top hundred will be great.

"Got it, father. This time, it's just for gaining experience. Next year, I'll definitely strive to get into the top hundred. No, the top ten!"

Xiang Liang was slightly energized, raising his goals considerably.

Not just the top ten; given my age, if I want to catch up with the most outstanding people in the camp, I need to be in the top three by next year, at least!

"You have ambition!"

Noticing the determination in his son's eyes, Xiang Ping naturally encouraged him, and then took his three children to watch the other arenas and enjoy the excitement.

The more he watched, the more he felt alarmed!

"Those who just broke through to the Earth-digging Realm are simply making up the numbers, those who can win ten matches consecutively, all have a basic strength exceeding the three thousand jin limit, some with bad luck at the Earth-digging Realm limit even lost in the ninth match, no wonder Zhou Yingkai earlier said he had no hope of advancing."

After watching over ten arenas, an unresolved confusion gradually arose in Xiang Ping's mind, prompting him to turn and ask Xiang Liang.

"Ping'er, how many people do we have in Great Xia now, who have a basic strength exceeding three thousand jin at the Earth-digging Realm limit, do you have any idea?"

Xiang Liang thought for a moment and then shook his head: "I don't know, probably only Qiu Sizheng and a few other adults are aware..."

At this point, he paused, then continued: "It should be above two hundred!"

.........

After all, being employed in the Camp Supply Department, Xiang Liang's guess actually has some basis, although he didn't account for the impact the martial arts competition would bring.

When dawn broke, in the grand hall on the top floor of the main building, Qiu Peng was exuberantly reporting to Xia Hong about the wave of breakthroughs brought by the martial arts competition the previous night, detailing how remarkable it was.

"Leader, it's terrifying! In the Logging Realm group alone, in Xia City here, 172 groups, over 800 people broke through to the Earth-digging Realm, Wuyuan has 232 people, Mirror Valley has 167 people, people from Longyou's three stationed points are not yet counted, I estimate newly added Earth-digging Realm overnight, at least over 1700 people, this is just the first night, following this trend, by the end of the martial arts competition, total newly added Earth-digging Realm will minimally exceed 3000 people."

As Qiu Peng spoke, his face beamed with joy, noting Xia Hong's subtle reaction, he continued: "The situation in the Earth-digging Realm group is also shocking, last night eight people broke through to the Cold Resistance Level, they are Ying Xuan, Ying Yi, Zou Yuankai, Tong Xinglong, Zhu Shun, Lu Sheng, Li Longkai, Xiao Kangcheng; those breaking through the three thousand jin limit, that's a lot more, grand total of 242 people, including those previously, currently in Xia City, Earth-digging Realm limit already has 504 people, if counting Longyou's side, it will surely exceed 600."

Upon hearing this, Xia Hong finally showed some reaction, a slight surprise flashing across his eyes.

Earlier on his return to Xia City, he had estimated currently Great Xia's Earth-digging Realm limit had only over 200, now hearing this, clearly was an underestimate.

"Exceeding 600, not bad, how many days do you estimate to complete the martial arts competition for the two groups?"

Qiu Peng promptly replied, "The second round selection of the Logging Realm group starts directly when night falls, people from Longyou's side should arrive in the second half of the night, predicted to select the top 128 by tonight, and complete by the next night's first half;

The Earth-digging Realm competed over half last night, should conclude by the first half of tonight, continue with seven-round elimination match in the second half, this will be fast, I predict results can be out before dawn tomorrow."

Earth-digging Realm top ten, results can be out before dawn on June third;

Logging Realm group has too many people, plus needing to decide the top hundred, so consuming slightly more time is normal, outcomes can be available by night on June third.

Xia Hong nodded, then said, "The martial arts competition for the Cold Resistance Level group is scheduled for the second half of June third, after Earth-digging Realm top ten, and Logging Realm top hundred rankings are all confirmed, I'll choose a place, and officially start."

Upon hearing that the Cold Resistance Level martial arts competition would commence in the second half of June third, Qiu Peng's expression immediately became more solemn, as he was in this group, naturally he must be attentive.

"How many do you predict will surpass the Earth-digging Realm limit in subsequent breakthroughs?"

Upon hearing this question, Qiu Peng first pondered for a moment, the Camp Supply Department roughly outlines the cultivation situation of camp population, he as the Director is naturally clearer than others, quickly relayed a rough number to Xia Hong.

"I predict there should be over 200 more people here in Xia City, as for the 2000 people in Longyou, I'm not too clear recently, need to wait for the selection situation to come out on that side, only then will I know."

600 plus 200, that's over 800.

Adding Longyou's, around 1000 people should be just about right.

Xia Hong slightly relaxed, waved his hand: "Go and rest, strive to complete the martial arts competition promptly after nightfall."

"Yes, subordinate takes leave!"

After Qiu Peng left, not long after, a series of information prompts emerged in Xia Hong's mind.

[Green Lotus Grass: Beast-type Spiritual Medicine, assists beasts in gaining intelligence and boosting strength, also usable for human alchemy, currently no synthesis recipe]

"It's the five woody plants I brought from Xing River's banks!"

Xia Hong immediately reacted, then confirmed the information once again, revealing a realization on his face.

"No wonder that Red Carp was so mad, beast-type spiritual medicine, meaning specifically for Cold Beasts? Can also be used for alchemy, no synthesis recipe indicates the Medicine Workshop's recorded ingredients don't match for use with it."

After pondering for a moment, Xia Hong suddenly thought of something, his eyes instantly sparkled.
