The next morning, when Luo Feng walked out of his room, he found his roommate with red eyes and a slightly haggard appearance, which made him curious. "Aaron, did you not sleep well last night? Is it because you're not used to the training camp yet?"

"Bullshit, it's all because of you!" Aaron cursed inwardly.

He was a very curious person, and because the carefully planned drama from the previous day didn't go as expected, Aaron spent the entire night thinking about the reasons, hypothesizing countless possibilities, but each one was eventually dismissed. His head was about to explode, yet he still couldn't find a reasonable explanation. Unconsciously, the night had passed, and his insomnia made him even more depressed.

This time, he didn't make another cup of beast milk for Luo Feng, as the same trick wouldn't be interesting the second time around.

Fortunately, he had a new good idea.

Thinking about it, Aaron's spirits lifted. "Luo Feng, where are you going for training later? Can I follow you?"

The training camp adopted a self-directed learning approach rather than forced course attendance. Each trainee could do anything beneficial to improve themselves, such as seeking advice from mentors, selecting certain subjects, or going to the arena to interact with other members, as long as they didn't violate the rules.

Luo Feng was a bit puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Well, to be honest, I'm a bit introverted and not good at socializing. If I go to learn alone, I'll be at a loss. It would be best to follow someone, but I don't know many friends..." Aaron rubbed the edge of his clothes, looking pitiful. "In the training camp, you're the only one I know, so, Luo Feng, can I follow you to learn?"

Luo Feng was a bit dazed, thinking that it was strange for someone to lack such independence. He was becoming more and more convinced that his roommate had suffered some tragic experiences that led to his introverted personality.

Hmm, it's rare for him to trust me so much and consider me a friend. If I refuse, Aaron will definitely be very sad.

Besides, this is a good opportunity to counsel him.

So Luo Feng nodded and said, "Okay, no problem."

"Great!" Aaron was overjoyed. "Thank you, Luo Feng. Don't worry, I won't be a bother!"

"Hehe, don't say such formal things, we're friends now!" Luo Feng extended his hand, wanting to pat his shoulder to show intimacy, but Aaron deliberately or unintentionally dodged. "Ah, some elective classes are about to start, let's go!"

Luo Feng didn't mind, thinking that his roommate was indeed wary of everyone, even him, and hadn't fully trusted him yet.

"Ah, Aaron, I forgot to tell you something."

"What is it?"

"Stop rubbing the edge of your clothes, it makes you look like a woman!"

"..."

That day, Luo Feng attended many elective courses. It must be said that the mentors in the training camp were all highly skilled experts with a deep understanding of the essence of power. They could explain complex concepts in simple terms, making them easy to understand. Although they were not as profound as the Supremes he had encountered in the spiritual world, they were still enough to make Luo Feng listen with great interest.

In stark contrast to him, Aaron was clearly not as focused. He often played with his pen and even started yawning during the last class in the evening, which made Luo Feng unable to bear it. "Aaron, don't take this the wrong way, but your attitude towards learning is a bit problematic. The training camp is a precious opportunity for us, and every second should be cherished. Moreover, the mentors' explanations are so vivid and interesting. Shouldn't we focus on listening?"

Aaron thought to himself that he had already mastered these things by the age of twelve, and was proficient to the point of perfection. What was the point of listening again? But he still smiled and said, "Oh, I didn't sleep well last night, so I'm a bit tired, you know."

Luo Feng nodded. "Yeah, be more careful in the future. You can't always be like this."

Aaron was very depressed, thinking that he had just escaped the old man's lectures, and now he had encountered another nagging, talkative guy. He had been lectured once during the assembly yesterday, and now again, which was really annoying.

The old man was one thing, but who did Luo Feng think he was? Apart from the old man and his grandfather, no one had ever dared to lecture him!

However, he had to play his role now, no longer the arrogant and unparalleled genius, so he could only suppress his anger.

Finally, the last elective class ended. After having dinner in the cafeteria, Aaron couldn't wait to say, "Alright, Luo Feng, let's go to the Energy Tower!"

The Energy Tower was an auxiliary training facility made of expensive enchanted materials. It could attract energy and improve the training environment, making martial artists' training more efficient. However, the more frequently the enchanted materials were used, the faster they aged and eventually became ineffective, requiring replacement at regular intervals. Therefore, the Energy Tower was a very luxurious auxiliary tool, and many wealthy families would build their own private Energy Towers. However, ordinary people, even those with some money, could not afford it.

The importance of one's background was evident. Even with the same talent, if someone had better training conditions, their achievements would be higher. Even with hard work, it was difficult to make up for the difference.

Luo Feng had never enjoyed the Energy Tower in Tianwei City, as the entire city, including the Gavin family, lacked the conditions to build one. However, after coming to the training camp, he had the opportunity. As long as he was a member of the training camp, he could spend an hour in the Energy Tower every day.

Luo Feng couldn't miss this half-hour. However, many people who hadn't been in the Energy Tower before would be eager to try it out, and the limited capacity of the Energy Tower might result in long queues, wasting time. Moreover, Luo Feng didn't want to miss the daytime classes, so he planned to go at night. After all, his Taigu Niantian Decision had no specific time restrictions, and its effects were the same at any time, unlike the fire-based cultivation methods, which were best practiced at noon, or the wood-based methods, which were best in the morning, and the earth-based methods, which were best in the evening.

Now that Aaron mentioned it, Luo Feng was also eager to try. He stood up and said, "Alright, let's go!"

The Energy Tower was located in the center of the camp, towering over fifty meters high. Such a scale was rare, and the construction cost was undoubtedly astronomical. The Glory Federation spared no expense in cultivating talent, and the money spent on the Energy Tower alone each year was considerable.

When Luo Feng and Aaron arrived, there were only a few people queuing outside the tower. Those who were eager to try had already come during the day, and among the various elements, only the dark element was suitable for nighttime cultivation. Dark, light, and space were the most special elements, and there were few practitioners, so it wasn't surprising that only a few people were queuing outside the Energy Tower.

After waiting for about ten minutes, people started coming out of the tower, and it was soon Luo Feng and Aaron's turn.

After registering with the administrator, the two entered the tower.

Of course, Aaron wasn't really there to try out the Energy Tower. This luxurious auxiliary tool, which was a luxury for most people in the Federation, was nothing new to him. From the beginning of his martial arts training, he had the opportunity to practice in the Energy Tower, and it was the best one, taller and using better enchanted materials than the one in the training camp, with no time restrictions. He could stay as long as he wanted, so it wasn't at all rare to him.

He had his own intentions: "Luo Feng, can I use the meditation room next to yours?"

Luo Feng was speechless. "Really? You need me to accompany you even in different meditation rooms?"

"Anyway, I'll feel more at ease if I'm closer to you, Luo Feng, okay?" Aaron used his trump card, looking at Luo Feng with his big, pitiful eyes. "Otherwise, in this unfamiliar environment, I'll feel lost, anxious, and restless, which will greatly affect my cultivation. Please, I won't disturb you."

"Alright, I give up!" Luo Feng was embarrassed, but he understood. After all, it was only the first day, and Aaron would gradually get used to it.

Before entering the meditation room, he added, "But, Aaron, don't use that coquettish way of speaking to me in the future. Two grown men, it gives me the creeps!"

Aaron was stunned, thinking that in Victoria City, if he just showed a bit of favor to those same-age males, including the young masters of the major families, they would be excited for days. If he were to act coquettishly, those guys would probably faint from happiness. But now he was being rejected, which made Aaron almost depressed to death.

"Hmph, damn Luo Feng, you dare to make me feel humiliated, I'll make you pay for it later!"

The two found two empty meditation rooms. Time was precious, and they could only stay in the tower for an hour. Luo Feng cherished every second and immediately began cultivating with the Taigu Niantian Decision.

Aaron in the adjacent meditation room wasn't as diligent. A wicked smile appeared on his face again.

A dazzling multicolored light burst forth, and Aaron had transformed.

A layer of multicolored energy surrounded his body, about two meters thick, making him look much larger and exuding a massive pressure.

Demon Energy!

Luo Feng would never have guessed that this delicate-looking roommate had reached the Demon Energy stage!

Moreover, this wasn't ordinary Demon Energy!

The nearly meter-thick layer of multicolored energy resembled a rainbow, with parts of it being a deep blue like water, parts being translucent and flowing like wind, and parts being silver currents and a milky white glow like the sun...

Based on its multiple attributes, it could be determined that Aaron's martial energy possessed seven attributes!
