In the training room, Xia Fei was drenched in sweat!

The Large Scarlet Peak Steel chains on his back made it difficult for him to breathe.

Unlike the cultivation of other clans, Xia Laoshi had arranged for Xia Fei to have a lot of strength training in his curriculum. Scarlet Peak Steel was one of the densest metals in the universe. A piece the size of a fist weighed an entire ton! Xia Fei was training with several dozen tons on his back!

"Speed isn't just about ability. Law force is also a factor, and even more critical is the body's toughness!" Xia Laoshi walked back and forth in front of Xia Fei as he coldly said, "Without a tough body, you can't endure the immense pressures of high speed. The truly strong can travel at hundreds of thousands of meters per seconds, perhaps even a million, without wearing armor! I don't demand that you have this speed right now, but you must make a tough body one of your lifelong pursuits!"

Xia Fei was stunned. The truly strong could travel at high speeds without armor? What sort of freakish body was that?

He had many questions, but he did not ask. This was because the pressure he was feeling was so heavy that he felt like he could not even talk!

Hellish training! Xia Laoshi's training was crueler than hell!

Xia Fei had barely been holding on this entire time. Every day when he returned to his room, he would simply collapse onto his bed, so tired that he found even taking a bath to be difficult. Even raising his arms caused them to ache!

...

The one month of special training passed by in this extremely exhausting torment. Today was the twenty-seventh. Starting from yesterday, Xia Laoshi had stopped asking too much from Xia Fei, instead having him start doing some recovery exercises in preparation for the mortal clash to come.

At noon, Xia Fei woke up. This was the longest he had slept since coming to Windrider Pavilion, a whole eighteen hours.

The energy restoration system was a wondrous thing. In one night of rest, Origin Energy had endlessly flowed into his body, making him once more as lively as a tiger.

After lunch, Xia Laoshi took Xia Fei down the mountain and looked admiringly at him.

"Few students can endure this old man's strict training, and even fewer can be like you and endure it all without a single complaint. Very good! These four weeks of special training ends today; now is the time to see your results!"

Xia Laoshi smiled and stroked a finger across his spatial ring, taking out a suit of combat armor.

Xia Fei was startled, his eyes flashing. This black suit of armor was much more exquisite than the Edgeless he had previously worn. Edgeless had been like a product of nature, seamless from head to toe. In contrast, this suit of armor was like a sharp spike! The helmet in particular had a short and sharp three-pointed spike which carried an astonishing visual impact!

Moreover, the Fig Corporation's mark could be found on the shoulder of this armor! This was a product of the Law Realm's most formidable tech company!

Xia Laoshi asked with a smile, "What do you think? This Monohorn Ogre armor doesn't lose out to Edgeless, does it? Edgeless was cast away by that Dragon Ascension Martial Hall Law Overlord Busey. We Skywings either choose not to provide, or we provide only the best! Monohorn Ogre is stronger than Edgeless in terms of functions; it's also of a higher rank!"

"A higher rank?! Even higher than Edgeless?!"

Xia Laoshi declared, "Correct! Monohorn Ogre is ranked as Great Law Emperor! One rank higher than Edgeless! If you have this, you can advance all the way to Law Overlord without needing to worry about a suitable suit of armor. Moreover, Fig Corporation's products are half a rank better than ordinary products, so you can even use it as a level 1 Law Overlord."

Oro nodded in agreement. "Xia Laoshi is right. The Fig Corporation's products are all much better than ordinary products. This suit of armor can last you all the way to Law Overlord. There should be no problems with the quality."

Xia Fei was delighted. The Fig Corporation's combat armors were hot products. The Skywings were able to take out a Great Law Emperor armor, a sign that they had a deep reserve of resources!

Just when he was about to reach out and take it, Xia Laoshi suddenly put the Monohorn Ogre away with a flick of his wrist.

"I'm merely showing it to you, not giving it to you." Xia Laoshi naughtily smiled. "If you can reach level 9 in your speed ability today, your speed surpassing 120,000 meters per second, then this Monohorn Ogre will be yours. Otherwise, you've got no hope of getting it. The clan isn't running a charity here, and we aren't in the habit of giving out treasures for others to play around with. You must prove that you're worthy of it."

Xia Fei clenched his teeth. "Alright! Deal! Let's get started! It's only 120,000 meters per second. I've been getting very close over the last few days! There's no guarantee that I can't break through the threshold!"

Xia Laoshi smugly smiled. It seemed that physical rewards were rather effective on Xia Fei, though the fact that the grand ancestor had ordered him to take out the Monohorn Ogre left his heart aching. After all, the Skywing Clan had only three suits of Fig Corporation combat armor. Other than Monohorn Ogre, the other two were worn by Xia Tian and Xia Buyun, and Monohorn Ogre was the most impressive of them! This complete suit of armor exuded a monstrous air!

...

It was not long before the final assessment began!

Whether or not Xia Fei could get the Monohorn Ogre combat armor, whether or not he could reach the apex of the speed ability, entirely hinged on his performance this morning!

After checking over his equipment, Xia Fei leaned forward and then his legs propelled him off the ground!

He accelerated faster and faster. When he broke the thirty-thousand threshold, Xia Fei felt his entire body tremble a little. This was a sign. As he accelerated, sound would grow weaker and weaker and the surrounding scenery would fade away like mist. Xia Fei had entered the almost tranquil world of high speed!

"Ninety thousand! One hundred thousand! One hundred ten thousand!" Xia Laoshi, who was observing the speed tracker in his hand, excitedly shouted this. Xia Fei had been stuck at one hundred and ten thousand meters per second for three days now, unable to break past it. With the battle imminent, Xia Fei did not have any time left!

Whenever the speed ability encountered a threshold, it was like running into an invisible wall. He only needed to bust through it for him to see a whole new world!

Breaking the threshold was not easy, but Xia Fei gritted his teeth and endured.

His body was in particularly good condition today. He had maintained the speed of one hundred ten thousand meters per second for a whole ten seconds now, yet he was not feeling even the slightest bit of fatigue.

This was probably the greatest advantage of getting a good sleep. All of the accumulated fatigue had been swept away, and Xia Fei was like his brand-new self!

"Break for me!"

With a roar, Xia Fei charged forward with all his strength, his mind going completely blank as he focused all his senses on avoiding potential obstacles.

He had only one thing on his mind: getting past the threshold!

*Beng!*

Clear and fine weather!

At that 0.001 second, when he broke through the one hundred twenty thousand meter per second threshold, as he crossed that pit, all obstacles ceased to exist!

His surroundings became empty, and Xia Fei felt like he was a lone comet streaking through the sea of stars!

This was the euphoric sensation that came from speed!

A sense of freedom, unbound and unconstrained by anyone!

Nothing could stop him!

"One hundred twenty thousand! Twenty-one thousand! Twenty-two thousand!" Xia Laoshi felt so excited that he nearly jumped for joy!

Xia Fei had not just punched through the limit; he had continued to accelerate, getting faster and faster!

"Broke it! He broke it! My Skywing Clan finally has another speedster at level 9!" Xia Laoshi's face turned red as he shouted this!

...

The flying Xia Fei forgot time, forgot where he was, and forgot what he was doing. He was utterly intoxicated by the sensation of flying like a lightning bolt.

About a dozen or so minutes later, Xia Fei finally returned to Windrider Pavilion, leaving the planet on which the Skywing Clan dwelled covered in his footprints.

"One hundred twenty-three thousand sixty-six meters per second! 123,066! Level 9! A max level ability user!" Xia Laoshi excitedly showed Xia Fei the speed tracker.

"With max level as your starting point, your potential is limitless. This is all because you're starting off a little higher than anyone else."

Xia Laoshi smiled like a blooming flower. This was also the first time Xia Laoshi had ever trained a max-level speed ability user in one month! It was simply unprecedented!

"Take it!"

*Zing~*

Xia Laoshi threw the Monohorn Ogre combat armor to Xia Fei. "This Great Law Emperor armor is yours starting from today!"

...

Not just Xia Laoshi, even Xia Fei was very happy to hit max level.

After taking some time to take a bath and organize his thoughts, Xia Fei walked out of Windrider Pavilion's side courtyard, preparing to return to the Galewind Garden. Tomorrow was the appointed day of battle between their Skywing Clan and the Moonward Clan. The Galewind Garden was probably already ready at this time.

Xia Laoshi came out personally to send off Xia Fei, a ruddy glow to his face.

"Let's settle the bill before you go down, yes?" Xia Laoshi smiled as he took out the bill and gave it to Xia Fei.

Xia Fei frowned. It turned out that Xia Laoshi was waiting outside not merely to send him off but for fear that Xia Fei would run off without paying the bill?

"A total of 1,754,000!" Xia Fei glanced at the bill and was instantly dumbfounded. He had stayed at Windrider Pavilion for only one month, but he had spent so much money! This was worse than the worst extortionist hotel!

Xia Laoshi waved his hand and casually said, "I even gave you a ten percent discount. This is my special treatment."

Xia Fei started to sweat as he looked over the items on the bill. A slipper fee, a drinking water fee, and even a toilet fee! All were listed out on the bill, and though the prices were excessively high, they all added up.

Xia Fei sighed. He felt like he could see the ashen complexions of Xia Zonghai and the others as they tried to negotiate with Xia Laoshi. There was nothing to be done. All Skywing warriors had to pass through this hellish checkpoint, and not even Patriarch Xia Buyun was an exception. After all, Xia Laoshi was an energy artificer. Without him, they really might have been unable to achieve their levels of success.

"Will you pay now or charge it to your account? If you charge it to your account, there's an interest charge," Xia Laoshi said with a wicked smile.

Xia Fei gritted his teeth. "I'll pay now. If you charge it to my account, I may be unable to pay it off even for the rest of my life."

Xia Laoshi was startled. He really did not think that Xia Fei had the ability to pay everything in full. After all, he had not been in the Law Realm for very long. How could he have that much money?

Oro suddenly said to Xia Fei, "1.75 million? Not that expensive. When I was cultivating my ability to max level, I spent ten times that amount. Moreover, you're a Law Emperor now, so the second tier of the Atlantis treasury is open to you now. Why do you care about such a trifling amount of money?"

Xia Fei ignored him. Oro was the emperor of the Lionheart Royalty, a king of kings. He had never had to worry about money in his life, so how could he understand the hardships of the poor?

Xia Fei sighed and took out his credit card from the Rock Private Bank, preparing to pay the bill.

"A dark gold credit card!" Xia Laoshi was stunned, and his eyes began to dart around frantically. Anyone who was just a little in the know knew that this card meant that Xia Fei had a fortune of at least five million grade 4 Origin Crystals at Rock Private Bank!

He grabbed Xia Fei and excitedly said, "Hold on! I suddenly have an idea—an idea that's extremely important for your future! You'll definitely be interested!"

"What do you want?" Xia Fei helplessly asked.
