Seeing the collapsed Void Lizard, Zero Wingâs 1,000-man raid team breathed a sigh of relief, joy surfacing on their expressions.
The bountiful EXP the Mythic monster had granted wasnât the only reason for their joy; they also celebrated the loot the Boss had dropped. The dazzling mountain that had appeared beside the monstersâ colossal body made every member of the raid team drool.
At first glance, there were easily more than 50 items in the pile. Over a dozen among them were weapons and equipment that had the glow of Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold items.
However, the only item in the small mountain of loot that caught Shi Fengâs eye was the bottle of Void Blood. With this, he could craft a few more sets of Void Field Scrolls. As for the remaining items, the most valuable was the Resuscitation Potion Recipe. In Shi Fengâs opinion, the Level 60 Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold Weapons and Equipment were average at best. The best piece of equipment that had dropped was the Void Shoes, a set of Epic ranked cloth armor boots.
Shi Feng instantly handed the Void Shoes to Violet Cloud, increasing her Epic item count to five. With Deathâs Sigh, Violet Cloud could now easily contend with peak experts.
âIâm beat!â Cola complained as he let his body fall to the ground. âI never thought that fighting a higher-leveled Mythic monster would cost so much Stamina. Had the Boss lasted any longer, I wouldâve died from exhaustion.â
Compared to fighting the Void Lizard, the Grand Lords he had faced earlier were childâs play. The Void Lizard had lasted more than an hour, and he had stayed on high-alert throughout the fight due to the Bossâs high combat standard. If he had made the slightest mistake, he wouldâve taken a direct hit, and he had no doubt that one hit wouldâve been enough to end his life instantly.
Fighting the Void Lizard was more mentally exhausting than grinding monsters for ten hours without a break. Cola had lost Stamina at a severe rate, and although the system didnât provide an indicator for Stamina, Cola guessed that he had less than 20% remaining based on how tired he felt. Had the raid continued for any longer and his Stamina fallen below 10%, he would receive a penalty to his combat power. He wouldnât have been able to keep up with the Void Lizardâs attacks, and it definitely wouldâve instant-killed him.
Turtledove and Ye Wumian, who also rested on the ground, nodded in agreement.
Fighting a Mythic monster that was ten levels higher than they were was truly exhausting. In fact, this raid had been even more intense than raiding the Void Serpent.
Cola and the other Tier 2 MTs werenât the only ones exhausted. Everyone that participated in the raid practically had less than 30% Stamina remaining. Only Shi Feng didnât seem tired as he moved towards the pile of loot that had manifested beside the Bossâs feet. Every Zero Wing member was shocked.
Shi Feng had fought on the frontline during the entire raid. His total damage output had also topped the raid chart, exceeding second place by more than double. Occasionally, he had even helped the MTs tank. Shi Feng shouldâve used more Stamina than anyone in the raid, yet he looked as if he had done nothing but watch. Fire Dance, who had come in second for damage dealt, was drenched in sweat, clearly just as exhausted as the MTs.
âIs the Guild Leader a monster? Heâs not even tired after such a long, arduous battle?â Zero Wingâs Tier 2 experts were confused as they watched Shi Feng collect the loot
They were all Tier 2. Logically, there should not be much of a difference between their total Stamina, and Shi Feng had fought far harder than they had, yet they were nearly out of StaminaâŚ
âThatâs normal. You guys made too many excess movements during the fight Most importantly, you guys havenât adapted to the flow of battle, allowing you to fight at peak condition constantly. It is only natural that you run out of gas more quickly.â Shi Feng could not help but laugh when he overheard his teammatesâ conversation.
In truth, he was just as surprised by how much Stamina he still had. He had never expected the added benefit after reaching the Realms of Truth.
âGuild Leader, do you have any training methods?â Cola asked, desire flashing in his eyes.
Although Cola had reached the Refinement Realm and could reduce his Stamina consumption during fights a little, he was still leaps and bounds behind Shi Feng. He even wondered if Shi Feng had twice the Stamina he had.
Stamina was extremely important to expert players. If he could learn a technique that allowed him to reduce Stamina consumption, he could rely on his Stamina to whittle down an expert of equal standards in a fight. After all, fighting an expert player consumed Stamina much faster than fighting a Boss monster. Such a technique would be of great help whether he fought Boss monsters or expert players in the future.
âTraining, is it?â Upon hearing Colaâs question, Shi Feng realized how important it was to train his team in Stamina control.
Although controlling oneâs Stamina wouldnât improve their combat power, it would have a massive impact on the playerâs performance.
When grinding in the fields, playersâ grinding efficiency was largely dependent on their Stamina. If players had various tools to aid in their Stamina recovery, they could increase their grinding efficiency. However, such tools were very rare and valuable. Players simply couldnât afford to use them constantly.
However, if players entered the Realms of Truth, not only could they increase their combat power, but they could also increase their leveling speed. After all, the lower oneâs Stamina consumption was, the longer they could fight.
Thinking up to this point, Shi Feng decided that it was time to train Fire Dance and the others in the Lost Town.
Since the Guild had lacked powerful combatants previously, Tier 2 players like Fire Dance didnât have the leeway to leave the frontline, but now that Zero Wing had more than 1,000 Tier 2 players, Fire Dance and her companions could afford a break. Furthermore, the difference in the equipment standard of the various superpowersâ peak experts and Zero Wingâs core upper echelons shrunk as time passed. The various superpowers continued to collect more Epic items, and most of their peak experts had obtained Peak Legacies. If Zero Wing wanted to maintain its lead on the various superpowers in terms of peak combatants, it was imperative that Fire Dance and the others grow stronger.
The only reliable method Shi Feng could think of to increase Fire Dance and her companionâs combat power was to train at the Lost Townâs Extraordinary Tower.
If Fire Dance and the others could reach the Realms of Truth, they could help the Guild even more than they already did. In a situation where two players had equal Basic Attributes, a Refinement Realm expert that had entered the Realms of Truth as well could rival a Flowing Water Realm expert in terms of combat power, and the former would have even better control of their abilities.
âAqua, notify our main force members and have them gather in White River Cityâs Residence in two hours! Weâre going to participate in special Stamina training!â Shi Feng addressed Aqua Rose.
âStamina training? Iâll notify them right away!â Aqua Rose was ecstatic to hear Shi Fengâs latest order. However, after giving the matter some more thought, she could not help but ask, âGuild Leader, since weâre participating in special training, why donât we include the Guildâs other experts, as well?â

âI donât want too many people to know about this training method yet. Moreover, the Guild has many affairs that require Tier 2 experts to manage. Taking too many people at once isnât ideal,â Shi Feng said, shaking his head.
The Lost Town was a specialized training ground for the Realms of Truth. Its value was immeasurable. If the various superpowers found out about it, they would do everything in their power to take it from him. Hence, he had used the excuse of Stamina training. If too many people found out about his Lost Town, it would increase the chances of the secret getting out, and he couldnât afford for that to happen. Zero Wing didnât have the ability to defend the town properly yet.
Shi Feng didnât have to say more for Aqua Rose to understand what he was trying to say. She stopped asking questions and contacted the Guildâs main force members.
Following which, Shi Feng held an internal auction for the weapons and equipment the Void Lizard had dropped. He then left the two remaining sets of Void Field Scrolls with You Ziping and had him and the other Tier 2 internal members take charge of the grinding operation in the forbidden land. As long as they didnât provoke any Mythic Bosses, they wouldnât have any issues in the forbidden land with the Void Fieldâs assistance. Once Shi Feng had finished designating tasks, he left the forbidden land, pulling out a Return Scroll to teleport to White River City once teleportation was available again.
