85: Luo Chengan's Opportunity

Originally, they didn't want to come, but faced with the temptation of a pet egg, they couldn't refuse.

The combat capabilities of their spirit seeds were relatively low.

After their Awakening, they never dared to go outside to kill monsters.

For Cultivation resources, they could only work part-time in Starfall City.

If they had a beast companion, it would greatly compensate for their lack of combat power.

They would also be able to take on missions, kill monsters in the wild, and earn points and resources like other classmates.

To secure a future, they agreed to join Luo Chengan's team and explore Secret Realm No. 4399.

However, not long after entering the Secret Realm, the group encountered a pack of Shadow Cats.

These were a group of cruelMythical Beasts, skilled at launching sneak attacks from the shadows.

Looking at the dense pack of Shadow Cats before them, both their faces turned pale.

"It's over, it's over, we've stumbled into the Shadow Cats' lair!"

"I knew I shouldn't have been so greedy!"

Tang Xiaorou was full of regret now.

For a pet egg, she was about to lose her life here.

Her spirit seed could make surrounding creatures feel favorably towards her.

She desperately used this ability, trying to make the Shadow Cats feel good about her, and thus avoid being attacked.

However, it had no effect whatsoever.

This pack of Shadow Cats, for some unknown reason, was stimulated and attacked them frantically.

Although Luo Chengan and his companions were powerful, they were gradually stretched thin.

So many Shadow Cats were not something a mere few people could handle.

In just this short while, they had already sustained injuries.

The Shadow Cats were very fast and wouldn't give them a chance to escape.

Once they exposed their backs to the Shadow Cats, it would be even more dangerous... "Young Master, what should we do? Should we..."

The guard beside him looked at Luo Chengan.

Luo Chengan was the son of the Wanding Chamber of Commerce's chief blacksmith and had many life-saving Dao tools.

Any one of them could resolve the current crisis.

Hearing this, Luo Chengan shook his head.

"Let's observe the situation first!"

His spirit seed was the SS-grade Heaven-Peeking Mirror, which possessed Precognition Ability.

A few days ago, he saw some blurry fragments, saying that there was an Opportunity for him in Secret Realm No. 4399.

This Opportunity was very significant, and if he could seize it, he would stand at the Peak of the world in the future.

The prophecy was strange; it required him to give a stone to a very handsome person.

According to the prophecy, this stone would be of great use to that person.

This stone had been stored in a corner of his father's warehouse for a long time, and to this day, its purpose was unknown.

Luo Chengan had specifically asked his father.

His father said that the stone's Material was ordinary, but it contained a special energy.

This energy was very similar to Evil Qi, but also somewhat different.

As for its purpose, his father also didn't know.

Luo Chengan resisted the Shadow Cats while observing Tang Xiaorou and Xu Miao.

These two also appeared in the prophecy.

So when he came to Secret Realm No. 4399, he specifically brought Tang Xiaorou and Xu Miao along.

But he had observed for a long time and hadn't found anything special about them...

Just as Tang Xiaorou and Xu Miao were falling into despair, a buzzing sound suddenly came from their ears.

Immediately followed by overwhelming explosions.

"Boom boom boom—"

A large number of Shadow Cats were blown away, lying motionless on the ground.

Immediately after, many mechanical Puppets appeared nearby, launching an assault on the Shadow Cat pack.

For a time, the Shadow Cats fell into chaos, greatly reducing the threat to Tang Xiaorou and her companions...

"We're saved?"

Tang Xiaorou couldn't believe her eyes.

Just then, a familiar voice sounded beside her.

"Class Monitor Tang, long time no see!"

The fully armed Wang Ledian suddenly appeared before her, striking a handsome pose.

Just now, Wang Ledian and his companions arrived nearby.

He spotted Tang Xiaorou and Xu Miao at a glance.

Tang Xiaorou was their high school class monitor, and he heard she also got into Starfall Academy, but was placed in the regular class.

Xu Miao was Su Yingxue's best friend, no need to say more about that.

They were still First-Order One-Star, yet they dared to venture into Secret Realm No. 4399?

However, this just gave him an Opportunity to show off.

Hadn't his "many days of hard training" been for the sake of showing off in front of people?

Lin Xingyu and the others didn't come over to greet them, focusing on killing monsters nearby.

At this moment, the Puppet Army had surrounded the vicinity.

They planned to annihilate this entire pack of Shadow Cats, not letting a single one escape.

These were all Materials for generating evolution fruit, not a single bit could be wasted!

"Wang Ledian??"

Tang Xiaorou's eyes widened, looking at the figure before her in disbelief.

Wang Ledian had changed a lot now, no longer carrying his iconic wrench.

Instead, he was fully armed.

Armor, battle saber, shield, everything was complete.

For some reason, she always felt a green glow around Wang Ledian.

However, judging from the details of the equipment, these should all be C-grade spirit gear.

She had been working part-time at the Wanding Chamber of Commerce recently, so she had that much discernment.

From their last purchase of ordinary equipment to meeting today, how many days had passed?

And now they've upgraded so much?

This couldn't even be described as upgrading from a shotgun to a cannon; it was like upgrading from a shotgun to a battleship.

Just then, she suddenly noticed several figures nearby.

She knew all these people; Lin Xingyu and Wang Chiyao were former classmates.

Although she wasn't familiar with Li Hongyang, she had seen him at the Spirit Awakening Ritual.

They had one common characteristic: they were all top performers in the trials.

She didn't expect these few people to gather together; indeed, birds of a feather flock together.

Looking at their equipment, Tang Xiaorou felt a moment of dizziness.

Also C-grade spirit gear...

Did these people rob a bank?

She remembered that in the freshman trial, the first place only rewarded D-grade spirit gear, right?

A single C-grade spirit gear cost at least 60,000 units of spirit crystals, and they were fully equipped!

How much money would that be?

This world was too crazy!

...Wang Ledian looked at Tang Xiaorou's shocked expression and was very pleased.

"Class Monitor Tang, why are you here?"

"With your First-Order strength, it's very dangerous here; it's better not to take risks!"

Wang Ledian said with a concerned expression, deliberately emphasizing "First-Order."

"First-Order?"

Tang Xiaorou was a little confused; weren't all their classmates First-Order?

When she worked part-time at the Wanding Chamber of Commerce, she had seen many Family scions.

It was already very good if they could advance two or three stars using Heaven And Earth Treasure.

Could they really advance to Second-Order?

Not to mention that the Heaven And Earth Treasure for improving strength was very rare.

Even if they could raise their strength to the Peak of First-Order Nine-Star, advancing to Second-Order wasn't that easy.

It required them to independently kill anMythical Beasts and have a spirit seed drop.

Was this something that could just drop randomly?

Many times, you would painstakingly kill anMythical Beasts, but no spirit seed would drop.

Sometimes, a very low-level spirit seed would drop, which you wouldn't want to absorb.

Each advancement was equivalent to a trial.

Therefore, many people referred to this process as the "Advancement Trial."

"You're right, I'm already Second-Order!"

Wang Ledian nodded, striking a pose he thought was very handsome.

Tang Xiaorou: "..."

When did she say that?

Wang Ledian usually liked to play pranks; was he bragging again this time?
