anwhile, outside the trial room, a group of people had already gathered to watch Michael’s desperate fight.
"This iron man! How can he keep going without stopping?"
"Shouldn’t he rest and reflect on why he failed?"
"Maybe this is his way."
Watching Michael pass the 1-star and 2-star trials, it seed he was relying purely on instinct, an instinct that could have evolved and sharpened through countless battles.
The more he was defeated, the stronger he beca.
"It’s honestly admirable. This is a real warrior."
"Haha, how long do you think he’ll take to finish the trial?"
"I bet 7 days!"
"I bet 15 days!"
"I bet 10 days!"
"I bet 20 days!"
"Let’s just watch and see..."

The next day, Nash woke up after a long night of rest.
Looking outside, instead of sunrise, the sun was already setting.
"Let’s just rest today," Nash decided.
Feeling lazy, he had no desire to return to the Dark Plane.
Taking his ti, Nash took a long shower, letting his body fully relax.
Then, without delay, he logged into the Virtual World.
An hour later, he had a tutor session scheduled with William.
Being early, Nash decided to check what the Verdant Group had sent him.
Opening his inbox, he was surprised to find six items:
[Basic Pharmaceutical Knowledge (Tier 1)]
[Herb Encyclopedia (Tier 1)]
[Advanced Healing Potion Formula (Tier 1) (Exclusive)]
[Advanced Void Blood Potion Formula (Tier 1) (Exclusive)]
[Advanced Dark Potion Formula (Tier 1) (Exclusive)]
[Verdant Group License ID]
"Three advanced potion formulas? How generous!"
Planning to study pharmacology, Nash already knew the basics.
Unlike what was sold on the market, which only detailed the process and exact amounts of each ingredient, the Advanced Formulas directly explained the properties needed to create the potion.
This ans that if he mastered these formulas, Nash wouldn’t be limited to fixed herbs and ingredients.
As long as he could extract or synthesize the required properties, he could create the potion.
These advanced potion formulas were usually secrets held tightly by major organizations. He didn’t expect the Verdant Group to hand them over so freely.
However, seeing the [Exclusive] tag, he realized he was the only one allowed to access them.
If it were ever discovered that he shared them in any way, he wouldn’t just be punished by the Verdant Group, he’d be hunted down by the Nova Governnt, too.
"It’s enough..."
Being able to study the essence of these three potions was more than enough for him.
Furthermore, with these advanced formulas, he could even create derivative potions, similar to those on the market.
Complete with precise processes and ingredient lists, he could directly sell it as a basic potion formula.
"This Verdant Group is really generous."
Setting the advanced formulas aside, Nash began browsing the Basic Pharmaceutical Knowledge and Herb Encyclopedia, inputting everything into his [mory Module System].
Saving all the data he could feel and even think of, it only took him half an hour to fully store all the information from the encyclopedia and the basic knowledge guide.
Although this wouldn’t allow him to use the knowledge flexibly yet, with the [mory Module System], it was like having an offline search engine in his mind.
Afterward, he did the sa for the advanced potion formulas, saving all their information to the [mory Module System].
Once he had more ti, he could slowly study them and build his pharmaceutical foundation.
Maybe, in the future, he could even sell potions in the Dark Plane. It would be a faster way to earn rits than fighting.
After sorting everything out, Nash took a walk in the Virtual World to relax.
Unfortunately, Camilla was away and couldn’t join him.
A while later, upon seeing a ssage from William, Nash entered his private virtual space.

William’s Private Virtual Space
"Do you still have the mood to train today?"
"Of course! Why not? Training never ends!"
Although he had already conquered the Lantern Shelter and received the initiation of the family, William was still unsatisfied.
He wanted to be as aweso as Nash in battle.
"Then what do you want to train today?"
"Um... can Boss just fight hand to hand?"
"No weapons?"
"Hmm."
Knowing he couldn’t be like Nash, dodging through a rain of attacks while countering with precision, William decided to focus on honing his basic hand-to-hand combat ability.
"If you say so. To make it more real, I won’t suppress your strength this ti."
Always suppressing William’s strength might make him forget his raw, overwhelming power.
If he got too used to holding back, it would do more harm than good.
"Haha, then I’m all in!"
Finally getting a chance to fight Nash using his full strength, William couldn’t help but feel excited.
"Then be prepared..."
Soon, their sparring turned into a brawl with Nash attacking William from every angle—front, back, left, right, even above and below.
Being hit by Nash’s attack was like a hamr hitting his flesh.
While it didn’t cause much damage thanks to his tough body, William was still overwheld by the pain.
Although Nash didn’t lower his strength, the pain threshold was still the sa as before.
Like a puppet being tossed around, William couldn’t even graze Nash’s clothes as he was beaten down again and again.

Three hours passed, and William found himself feeling the sa absurdity he did the first ti he sparred with Nash.
"Can you even get stronger than this, Boss?" William muttered dazedly.
"Haha, sooner or later, you’ll get used to it. Maybe in the future, you’ll even defeat ." Nash comforted.
"Really?! That’s great! I’ll be looking forward to that day!"
Thinking of the day he could finally defeat Nash, William couldn’t help but get excited.
"Alright, let’s et again tomorrow."
"Are we going to hunt again, Boss?"
"Nope. We’re going to one of the Nova Battlefield Main Shelters. Let’s go shopping!"
With over a million rits in his account, how could Nash not go shopping?
"Shopping? Then let’s celebrate, Boss!"
