  “Hao Shuai is more talented than Ling Jiu.”

  The skinny old man had a proud smile on his face. “He has three top-notch arcana, namely Time Halt, Blink, and Super Physique.”

  “Time Halt?”

  “Blink?”

  “Which kid are you talking about, Zhang?”

  Everyone was stunned. “Has that guy not gone to the matriculation camp yet?”

  “Not yet.”

  The skinny old man smiled. “But this operation on Pandora will be his last action as a training camp trainee.”

  “I thought that kid had gone to the matriculation camp.”

  Wang Dalong’s lips curled up, looking upset. “He is still in the training camp with his talent and strength? This kid is more of a bully than Ling Jiu.”

  “Agree.”

  “Time Halt belongs to the Time-series Arcana, and Blink Arcana belongs to the Dimensional Arcana. He combines Time and Dimensional Arcanas in one, his talent makes people jealous.”

  “Is it not?”

  “More so because this kid has the same unfair advantage of Super Physique arcana: a hundred times energy, speed, agility, stamina, defenses, self-healing, eyesight……”

  “Comparisons are odious.”

  “Who wouldn’t agree?”

  Everyone marveled at Hao Shuai’s talent. In fact, Hao Shuai deserved all that admiration as he was good. His three arcana are all buggy.

  “No one else but Hao Shuai will be the champion in this hunting contest.

  Wang Dalong was not too happy. The reward was very generous this time. He had high hope of Francis at first. But now it seemed he had thought too much.

  Francis could not even compete with Ling Jiu, let alone beating Hao Shuai.

  “It is all about Ling Jiu and Hao Shuai again. Have you all forgotten about Bai Ya from Tianwei?

  A somewhat pissed voice came from a corner. Everyone followed the voice and saw a raunchy old man sitting in the corner.

  He was wearing a vest, a pair of sandals with a smoking pipe in his mouth. He was unshaven, looking as if he was a martial art freak who had just escaped from a mental hospital.

  Everyone knew this old man. He was Lao Ma, the person in charge of the training camp of Tianwei Arcana Combine.

  “Bai Ya?”

  Everyone frowned. They had heard about Hao Shuai and the others, but never of Bai Ya.

  “There are only a few talents awakened this year, Lao Ma. I know each of them. Never have I heard of Tianwei having any talents.” Wang Dalong sneered.

  \r \r \r

  “We Tianwei have recruited no one with exceptional talents, but we can nurture one. I don’t mind telling you all this.”

  The old man took a drag and smoke blew out of his mouth as rings. “When our Bai Ya attained Level Six last month, she grew a new ability out of her Thunder Arcana.”

  “What?”

  Everyone’s eyebrows raised. It was well known that many arcanists would derive new abilities when they attained Level 6.

  But the new abilities derived were of more conventional ones.

  Such as the Thunder Arcana, the new capabilities could boost the lightning voltage, make it more destructive, or generate electromagnetic fields.

  There were no other capabilities apart from these.

  “Do you all know what it is?” The old man let out a cheeky grin.

  “Stop keeping us in suspense, Lao Ma!”

  “What new ability has this little girl Bai Ya derived?”

  “Lao Ma, can’t you get straight to the point?”

  The old man had a smug face when he saw everyone became curious. “Annihilation Thunder!”

  “Annihilation Thunder?”

  Everyone was taken aback.

  “Her Thunder Arcana has mutated. It could annihilate everything. That’s right. It is annihilation.”

  The old man was very proud. “Whether it is the hardest alloy on earth, meteorites of outer space, or the bones of the Class-Nine Direbeasts, she can annihilate into nothingness!

  “In short, it is terrifying. I have no confidence to withstand this kind of lightning attack at least.”

  Everyone was amazed at hearing what the old man said. Even the hardest alloy on earth and meteorite from outer space were nothing to her.

  The most amazing thing was that this ability could annihilate the bones of the Class-9 direbeasts. Unbelievable.

  As the king of all Direbeasts, the Class-Nine Direbeast had the toughest bones on Earth—tougher than the hardest alloy, the most difficult thing to destroy.

  Even Level-9 arcanists like them would have a hard time destroying the bones of the direbeast king.

  Now, the Thunder Arcana of a Level-6 arcanist had such a characteristic?

  Was it a joke or something? ……

  Searching for the energy crystals was not a challenge at all for Ling Jiu. He had found them all in a short while.

  When he took them in his hands and studied them, those onlookers were drooling all over, their full of envy.

  A piece of energy crystal was worth at least 10,000 contribution points. Ling Jiu had just found dozens of them. This would be hundreds of thousands of contribution points. He became rich overnight.

  Others were so envious of him.

  “Weasel!”

  Francis was indignant. Those energy crystals were supposed to be his, but now Ling Jiu had taken them away.

  He hated him.

  “It’s done. Time to leave.”

  Ling Jiu carefully kept the energy crystals and looked at the Centipede Dragon’s body. “This Centipede Dragon belongs to me since I was the one who killed it. Do you all have any problem with that?”

  “Of course, not!”

  Everyone kept shaking their heads. Of course, they had no problem with that since they could not even beat him.

  “Then I will take it away!” ……

  “Two energy crystals per person. Is that enough?”

  Ling Jiu took out four energy crystals and handed them to Shi Gang and Dylon. “These are your rewards for the intel.”

  “It is more than enough!”

  Shi Gang quickly nodded. “If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have gotten even one piece, let alone two!”

  “Thank you.”

  Dylon could not hide his excitement. He was grateful for Ling Jiu. “With these two energy crystals, I am sure I can attain Level Six in the shortest time with these two energy crystals.”

  “You’re welcome. You deserve them.”

  Ling Jiu waved his hand. “If you encounter anything again and can’t solve it, just come to me. You can talk over it.”

  “Sure!”

  Shi Gang could not have been happier. “I didn’t expect to see such an amazing thing on this planet. How did this thing come about?”

  “Probably it forms naturally on this planet, I guess?”

  Dylon scratched his head. “People say that wherever there are energy crystals, there are usually energy crystal veins. The possibility of having energy crystal veins is very high since the Gene Arcana on this planet is so rich.”

  “Energy crystal veins?”

  Shi Gang’s eyes lit up. “Did you say this planet has energy crystal veins?”

  “I said it is possible!” Dylon said.

  “Damn! Then hurry and look for energy crystal veins. If we can find an energy crystal vein and dig a few energy crystals out, it will last us for a long time!”

  Shi Gang was green-eyed.

  “You think too much!”

  Ling Jiu’s mouth twitched. “Those people at the top would have taken those veins for themselves even if there are energy crystal veins on this planet. There will be nothing left for you and me.”

  “Err……” Shi Gang scratched his head. “I think you have a point.”

  A soft white glow suddenly burst out in front of him as soon as his voice trailed off. The three of them quickly went over and saw a massive sinkhole up ahead.

  A milky white light in the sinkhole radiated in all directions.

  “This glow……”

  The three of them exchanged a glance with each other, their breathing rapid.
