Floating Island - Triple S Talent

Chapter 54: Inspecting Alliance Development

At this moment, the main gate leading to the training arena opened, and the gatekeeper welcomed the person entering with great respect, gesturing humbly with his right hand.

"Welcome to training arena #6, island owner," the gatekeeper said respectfully.

"Thank you..."

Lein expressed his gratitude and continued walking along the side of the training arena, observing the training activities of the students and instructors.

At that moment, Instructor Dohago and the students also noticed the young man who had entered. Especially Instructor Dohago, who immediately stopped his movements and approached Lein to greet him.

Instructor Dohago sensed Lein's powerful aura, although it was imperceptible to ordinary people with limited combat experience. Only because he was a former professional fighter on Earth, and now, could he sense Lein's overwhelming aura.

"No need, continue your training."

Lein raised his hand, allowing Instructor Dohago to proceed with his teaching plan.

His task this time was to personally inspect and ensure the progress of the World Market Alliance.

"Thank you, island owner. If there's anything I can do, please let me know and I will get it done."

"Everyone, salute the island leader."

Instructor Dohago shouted to all the students to salute Lein, who was watching from the sidelines.

"Salute to the island owner."

"Salute to the island owner..."

...

Seeing the greetings from hundreds of people like this gave Lein a feeling of being closer to them. The students before him were the future generation of his organization, and he was their leader at this moment.

"Thank you, continue your training. Don't mind me."

Lein waved his hand, feeling a bit shy inside but not showing it. This was the first time he had experienced such a feeling.

"Amazing... The island owner is still so young. He rarely appears in chat rooms and public spaces."

"Look at that sword, guess what level that weapon is."

"By the way, what level is the island owner now?"

"The island owner is very handsome. Is he married?"

The discussions among the hundreds of students were clearly audible to Lein, but he couldn't do anything about it.

The students before him had no ill intentions; they were just in awe of him, the leader of tens of thousands of people. Only a fool wouldn't admire someone like that.

"Hua..."

"Continue with your left foot, it must be strong and steady in position."

....

Instructor Dohago's training and the other students continued. Meanwhile, Lein kept watching from a distance.

In Lein's view, he noticed significant differences in several training arenas.

Among the students, there were always at least one or a few with strong determination to train. The dedication and firm resolve in their eyes were clear.

Just like what he was witnessing now.

A young man with straight black hair followed Instructor Dohago's movements with great enthusiasm, and every motion he made was precise.

Lein had previously asked one of the instructors about the current system for students.

The instructor had said that there were currently several levels of students. New students, official students, and main students.

New students were anyone who entered the World Market Alliance through initial selection and met the initial requirements.

Official students were those who had completed certain tasks and made sufficient contributions. By becoming official students, they would receive direct and tangible benefits from the alliance.

Finally, main students were those who were seriously mentored by the Alliance and had a certain level of loyalty. All main students were level 10, and there were currently about 100 of them.

Such arrangements had been explained by Nita previously, so he understood them well enough.

"It seems I should schedule some combat events to give hardworking students a chance."

Seeing the students seriously and determinedly following the instructor's movements, Lein felt a bit moved to reward their efforts. Of course, it couldn't be done directly, as it wouldn't have much effect in large numbers.

Lein watched training arena #6 for 5 minutes before moving to another area of the Alliance.

***

The room was filled with commotion, with small puffs of smoke rising from several tables.

The mixed aromas of fragrant and burnt substances filled the air.

"Each room is limited to a maximum of 20 alchemists, sir. They all have talents related to the medium at least."

A woman with long curly hair, wearing a white robe, explained the situation to Lein, who was beside her.

Lein was currently in the alchemist potion-making room. The potion-making room was very large, housing 20 alchemists with their respective potion cauldrons.

Lein initially thought potion-making would be like in games, like constructing buildings. As long as there were enough materials, the system would make them directly.

But now he saw a woman with glasses adding various strange herbs, which Lein had never seen before, into the potion cauldron. She added them with some consideration, Lein assumed. Occasionally, her face showed frustration when the potion's reaction didn't match her expectations.

Plup...

The last ingredient was added...

The woman stirred the potion slowly with a long wooden spoon. Her stirring movements were clockwise, precise, not too fast, nor too slow.

A few seconds passed... The woman stopped stirring.

A bottle appeared in her hand. She poured the entire potion from the cauldron into the glass bottle in her hand.

"What is the highest quality potion that can be made currently?" Seeing the woman succeed, Lein asked the woman in the white robe beside him.

"Currently, there is no definite ranking, sir. We are also examining the potion levels and alchemical knowledge from other realms and alliances."

"For now, the best potions we can produce are the Brave Potion 2 and High Health Potion."

The woman took something out of her bag.

(Brave Potion 2)

- Increases STR attribute by 2% for 10 seconds.

(High Health Potion)

- Increases HP by +1,000 and natural healing by 5% for 1 minute.

Lein observed both potions and tried them. They tasted like plain mineral water. However, he clearly felt some beneficial effects from the potions.

"Alright, continue..."
