Chapter 328 Power Grind Begins

Sophie had planned to soak in the dimensional energy pool a bit longer. But under Joanna’s sharp questioning, she had no choice but to leave.
Marlon’s face darkened. A flash of killing intent crossed his eyes, but he held it back because of Sophie’s class.
Who would offend a healer?
Did they have a death wish?
Haul quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
“Then we’ll train our own way. I can heal too. As long as I’m here, no one’s getting hurt!”
Joanna spoke coldly, her voice steady. “I have Soul Storm for healing and defense. My fifth contract beast possesses water-type healing abilities.
“I also have four open skill slots to learn new skills.
“And resurrection skills aren’t limited to pastors. Any magic-class build can learn them.”
Her confidence surged, sharp and overwhelming.
Marlon, Samantha, Dax, and Haul all looked at Joanna with clear admiration.
Sophie, however, found Marlon’s way of thinking ridiculous.
That was exactly because she lacked the desire to be stronger; she couldn’t understand what he
meant.
Everyone present was a top student. They all knew it. What Joanna just showed wasn’t talk. It was the stance of a true powerhouse.
“We’re counting on you, Joanna!” Dax said.

“I don’t think Sophie wants to join the tournament,” Samantha added. “She just doesn’t dare against Mr. Reid. Let’s not pin our hope on her. We’ll train ourselves. Any issues with this training plan?”
Everyone shook their heads.

“Bang!”
Sophie slammed her fist onto the table.

“How does ImLurking know about this?” she snapped. “Are Marlon and the others trying to force me into training with public pressure? Dream on!”
Her anger flared even hotter. Now she wanted to train even less.
She had completely forgotten about Anya.
Still, the post hurt her reputation. She had no choice but to finish her livestreams and ad shoots first. Only then would she return to the training room.
That dimensional energy pool was valuable. Even though she didn’t plan to join the tournament, she wasn’t going to miss out on a power boost.
On Joanna’s side, everything followed Samantha’s plan strictly.
Not having to worry about planning at all felt great.
In the past, Samantha’s role had been Joanna’s own.
Now that someone else was doing the organizing, Joanna was more than happy to accept it.
Of course, she wasn’t like Lucas or Cedric-complaining about training being too hard and refusing to cooperate.
Joanna followed every instruction seriously.
First, everyone had to soak in the dimensional energy pool for two hours a day.
This was pure top-tier nourishment. Even with Joanna’s attributes already at 360,000, she could still absorb 1,000 attribute points per day. Thanks to Perfect Body (SSS Rank), those 1,000 points turned into 4,000.
Next, Joanna summoned her five contract beasts to absorb dimensional energy as well. Even though each beast fed back only 10% of their gains, that was another 500 attribute points total. With Perfect Body (SSS Rank), that became 2,000 more,
That meant a total daily gain of 6,000 attribute points. Strength, vitality, agility, and spirit eac increased by 1,500.

By far, Joanna was leveling the fastest in the entire team.
Inside the massive pool, everyone soaked together.
Marlon, Haul, and Dax stayed on the left.
Samantha, Anya, and Joanna were on the right.
Still, Samantha and Anya kept some distance from Joanna.

Joanna plus her five contract beasts were absolute energy vacuums, devouring power nonstop.
“So unfair. I’m jealous already,” Anya said, snapping a few photos. If she posted these on the forum, it would cause total chaos.
But she had standards. They were teammates now. She wouldn’t sabotage Joanna.
As for Sophie? She didn’t count.
Samantha activated Eye of Insight, monitoring everyone’s energy intake and calling out data.
“Joanna has the highest absorption rate. Dax, Haul-you two should absorb a bit more later. Anya… hmm. Anya, do whatever feels right.”.
Being able to sense others at all already showed how strong Samantha’s power was. Checking exact attribute values was still difficult. Everyone had their build system, and she couldn’t force control.
Two hours later, the water in the energy pool lost its glow.
It looked like plain water again.
The pool refilled with energy once per day.
Everyone stepped out and headed for the dungeon room.
Inside stood a NeuralCore, capable of controlling dungeon teleportation.
Samantha selected several Hell-Tier dungeons. In the tournament, only five players would enter together. But for Hell-Tier dungeon runs, all seven of them could grind at once.
