Chapter 409 - 203: Are We Lacking Merit?_2
Recently, everyone had been immersed in the enhancement of withstanding the pressure from the Evil Eye Tyrant, so much so that they had somewhat forgotten about the third stage.
"Instructor, can we attempt the third stage without passing the second one?" someone asked.
The Devil Instructor shook his head, said, "Absolutely not. Unless you guys give up on the second stage. Oh, if you fail to pass the second stage, deduct one thousand merits as well."
Everyone was speechless. But the various teams immediately gathered together and began to discuss countermeasures. It’s a matter of a thousand-plus merits! A deduction that no one could bear. Especially for one particular team that had previously lost over a thousand merits.
"What should we do?" The partners also gathered around Long Dangdang.
Long Dangdang gave a faint smile and said, "I want to ask you all a question. Is one thousand merit important, or the opportunity to greatly enhance spiritual power is essential? Moreover, do we lack one thousand merits?"
After hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, but the next instant, their expressions became somewhat odd. Right, for other teams, they were worried about having negative merit, which could affect the final results of this three-month training and lead to their elimination. But for them, there was no such concern at all. Their merit was not only the highest among all reserve demon hunting teams, but it was also far higher than other demon hunting teams, and the gap was not small. Let alone a thousand, even if they lost two thousand merits, they would probably still be the first.
"You mean, we give up on the third stage and continue training with the second stage?" Ling Menglu asked.
Long Dangdang shook his head and said, "There’s no need to give up, but we can train here until the last two days and then rest for a day. All we need to do is to challenge the instructors once. If we could pass, naturally it’s the best. If we can’t, we accept it. We should progress quite well by being pressured in the real battles with the instructors within these few days. But such progress through real battles can be found, as we could find formidable opponents after we go back. However, the enhancement of spiritual power is too hard. We don’t have another Evil Eye Tyrant for us to find."
