209: This is the best result so far!
Three familiar, glowing items immediately appeared.
Lin Shu felt a sense of anticipation, wondering what treasures awaited him this time.
The light soon dissipated, revealing the treasures.
They were: a large bag of Spirit Coins, a floating silver stone, and finally, a scroll titled 'Iron Cavalry Feather Eagle Evolution Content'.
It was indeed extraordinary; the previous rewards had already reached the ninth rank, and now this silver stone was a Spirit Origin Level item.
Although it was only a low-grade Spirit Origin existence, it was already quite good.
Lin Shu decisively looked towards it; the other two items wouldn't be of much help to him.
He had already chosen many Spirit Coins in previous rewards, and the evolution method was useless to Lin Shu.
Not to mention, this was just a lower-tier Iron Cavalry Feather Eagle, a perfect-grade evolution method.
The information about the silver stone was clearly visible, and Lin Shu immediately understood its function and effect.
It was called the Stone of Emptiness, a rare space-attribute item that could not only provide a large amount of energy for beasts but also served as an evolution material for certain space-type beasts.
Lin Shu no longer hesitated, reaching out his left hand to place it on the stone, gripping it and taking it.
Regardless of whether it was the evolution material that Night needed, choosing this one was definitely not a problem.
The other two items then dissipated. Lin Shu placed the Stone of Emptiness in front of Night, letting it feel it properly.
In response, Night leaned forward, carefully sensing the changes in its body.
Unfortunately, it didn't seem to have much attraction, only the spatial energy within its body was pulled by the Stone of Emptiness.
There were no other fluctuations.
It was far from the uncontrollable feeling it had last time when it encountered the dark abyss magic stone in the Treasure Pavilion.
But this didn't necessarily mean it was useless. After all, these materials needed to be combined, and everything would become clear once the evolution path was unlocked.
As he placed it into his spatial ring, the starry sky scene before him immediately vanished like a bubble.
The scene became vibrant again, quickly condensing into a rough outline.
This also meant that he was about to enter the ninth act.
Lin Shu had no confidence in this; the difficulty of each act would skyrocket, and this time, the opponent would only be stronger.
He had only barely managed to pass the eighth act by luck.
But he would first assess the situation... Outside the Inheritance Land, all students who had entered, except for Lin Shu, had already come out.
Nearly twenty hours had passed since they first entered.
Many had already gone back to rest, accumulating Mental energy, preparing for their second entry.
They wouldn't just wait here.
Regarding the second entry, it was actually just a training opportunity, giving those students who were slightly unlucky another chance.
Originally, rewards obtained from passing acts would not be reissued; only by clearing a new act would rewards continue.
Such obvious loopholes would not exist; although these alien forces had deep foundations, they couldn't withstand such repeated exploitation.
However, many people were still waiting outside, their gaze fixed on the water curtain.
Evidently, these people were all waiting for Lin Shu to appear, especially since even Yu Liyan had already failed.
The fact that he hadn't appeared yet was truly surprising.
This made everyone very curious about his performance.
Yu Liyan stopped at the eighth act, a score similar to Liang Qingmu's, but he was somewhat distressed.
Because his luck wasn't very good; the environment in the scene he encountered, as well as his opponent's beast, were very unfavorable to him.
It was a heavy rain environment, and the clear condition was one of the more difficult ones, requiring him to hijack a convoy escorted by an eighth-rank Beastmaster.
This left him with an untold bitterness.
Even with the enhancement of various means, he was still one step short, regretfully losing.
Fortunately, there was still a second chance. As long as he encountered a suitable scene and opponent, entering the ninth act would be very easy.
However, he was very interested in Lin Shu's performance. The other party had been inside for such a long time.
He thought that his score wouldn't be bad, probably the same as his own, also at the eighth act. As for going further, that was unlikely, after all, even he had fallen here, let alone Lin Shu, whose strength was inferior to his.
This could be considered a normal thought, after all, the enemies in the eighth act were all at the eighth rank.
Lin Shu's current strength was only at the seventh rank.
At this moment, on the other side, was where Gu Li and his group were located.
Not only him, but Li Wen Chu Yu, Zhang Hongyi, Gong Min, and many other classmates were waiting there.
Everyone was interested in Lin Shu's performance.
Among them, Zhang Hongyi was the best, with relatively good luck, failing in the seventh act.
Li Wen and Chu Yu's scores were somewhat unsatisfactory, both falling in the fifth act.
Everyone looked forward with expectant eyes, waiting.
They didn't have to wait long, just over ten minutes later.
The water curtain glowed with a translucent light, and a figure appeared directly outside.
And this person was Lin Shu.
At this moment, he squinted one eye; the difficulty of the ninth act had left him speechless.
The opponent's strength had directly risen to the ninth rank, the scene was completely one-sided, and even the conditions for passing were increasingly stringent. Lin Shu was shattered and ejected in just three minutes.
It seemed he would need to explore it later. Lin Shu estimated that there might only be ten acts in total, after all, with such an exaggerated upward trend in difficulty, any more would be impossible for a 19-year-old Beastmaster to complete.
He then stopped thinking about it and headed towards Gu Li's direction.
He had seen everyone's eager gazes.
Yu Liyan also hurried over, wanting to see the excitement.
He soon arrived among them.
Gu Li said with a smile:
"How was it? Which act did you reach?"
"Everyone is very excited."
After he finished speaking, everyone nodded, indicating, "Hurry up and tell us, we're dying of impatience."
Seeing this, Lin Shu didn't dare to delay, taking out a silver-glowing iron plate.
The number on it was clearly visible: a "Nine."
Immediately, everyone was dumbfounded, letting out exclamations. "Brother, you really didn't cheat, did you?"
You have to know that even Yu Liyan, with his nearly eighth-rank strength, only reached the eighth act, and you reached the ninth act!
"Holy cow! Awesome!"
"As expected of Brother Shu."
"That's incredible, this is currently the best score!"
At such a score, even Chu Yu couldn't help but curse, while Li Wen had an expression of course, completely like a fanboy.
Yu Liyan's eyes widened, his heart already surging with tumultuous waves.
This isn't right, how could he reach the ninth act?
Does he have the strength to kill an eighth-rank beast?
After analysis, he came to an even more terrifying conclusion.
A Beastmaster who had just entered the seventh rank had the ability to kill an eighth-rank beast. Does that even make sense?
If someone said such a thing, most Beastmasters would just treat it as a joke.
His eyes flickered; the other party's strength was actually comparable to his own. Lin Shu had hidden his strength too deeply.
His already high evaluation of him rose again in his heart.
He then silently withdrew from the crowd and began to leave alone.
Clearly, Lin Shu's performance this time had a huge impact on him.
It was also the first time he felt such great pressure and urgency from a Beastmaster younger than himself.
Gu Li laughed heartily. Lin Shu's score after coming out indeed did not disappoint him, giving him a huge surprise.
As for why, there was no need to consider any of that.
Wasn't it normal for such a thing to happen to his good student?
Seeing everyone's varied expressions, all somewhat exaggerated.
Lin Shu had no choice but to speak up.
"Just by luck."
"The scene in the eighth act gave me a great advantage."
Regarding these, the crowd paid no mind; no one cared about the process.
Everyone only saw the result.
Even if it was luck, it still required strength to back it up.
Otherwise, everything would just be fleeting clouds.
After everyone chatted and laughed for a few more sentences, the conversation ended.
It was already late, and after such a long scene battle, the Mental consumption was still very high, so it was better to go back and rest well first.
These things could be discussed at other times...
