I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

While Reggae was still questioning his existence, Lin Qingyi's voice rang out at the right moment, like a bucket of ice water, precisely splashed onto Shen Tian's restless heart.

Don't get too excited yet.

Lin Qingyi sheathed her sword with a swift and precise movement, like a perfectly edited frame of a movie.

She turned around, her cool gaze falling on Shen Tian.

"Who told you that joining the Broken Army Division would immediately send you out on field missions to kill alien beasts?"

Lin Qingyi walked up to Shen Tian, ​​her tone calm yet exuding an undeniable authority.

"The Po Jun Division is a sharp blade, not a babysitter."

"Our missions often involve facing beast tides or high-level alien beasts."

"On that kind of battlefield, even first-tier martial artists are just cannon fodder."

"Only those who have reached the second-tier martial artist level, or who have demonstrated second-tier combat strength, are qualified to be included in the combat sequence and carry out field missions."

Lin Qingyi held up a finger and waved it in front of Shen Tian.

"As for you."

"The Mortal Realm is complete."

"While you may have a good knife, some talent, and a fighting spirit, that's for an ordinary hunter."

"If I threw you into the beast horde, you wouldn't even be enough to fill the teeth of those beasts."

"So what am I supposed to do?"

Shen Tian asked.

"Cultivation."

Lin Qingyi uttered two words.

"You are not allowed to go anywhere until you break through to the first level of martial arts."

"Stay in the base and practice the Great Sun Body Tempering Technique."

"We'll talk about killing alien beasts once we break through."

Shen Tian opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but seeing Lin Qingyi's unwavering eyes, he swallowed his words.

This woman is not easy to mess with.

And she's right.

My current strength is indeed a bit lacking.

With the help of sneak attacks and system-added points, he was barely able to kill a third-tier Wind Demon Wolf, and that was only because the wolf was injured before and had been weakened by Lei Gui and the others.

If I were to encounter a Tier 3 beast at its peak, I'd probably be doomed.

"Alright."

Shen Tian sighed, looking utterly hopeless.

"Then let's hurry up and go."

"Get on the job as soon as possible, and get the skills as soon as possible."

"I can't wait to go into seclusion and cultivate."

For kill points.

Just then.

The one-eyed man and the bald man, who had been hiding in the distance, slowly walked over.

Neither the Wind Demon Wolf nor the powerful figures of the Broken Army Division were people they could afford to provoke.

Especially when they saw that Shen Tian was actually going to join the Po Jun Division.

One-Eyed's mind immediately became active.

This is the Broken Army Division!

The most powerful violent organization in the Dragon Kingdom!

If you can get on the good side of this guy, everyone will give you face when you're out in the wilderness.

"Um...Brother Shen?"

The one-eyed man rubbed his hands together, his face plastered with a fawning smile.

That face, which was originally fierce and menacing, was now smiling like a chrysanthemum, looking somewhat comical.

Shen Tian glanced at him.

"What's up?"

He didn't feel any ill will towards these two opportunistic guys, but he didn't like them either.

That's the law of survival in the wilderness.

Might makes right.

One-Eyed pointed to the enormous corpse of the Wind Demon Wolf on the ground.

The fur, bones, claws, and teeth still constitute a considerable fortune.

Materials from third-tier beasts are highly sought-after items on the black market.

"Brother Shen, you've been promoted now, you should go to the Po Jun Division to enjoy your newfound wealth."

"But these spoils of war... it's not really appropriate to carry them all the way to the front lines, is it?"

One-Eyed cautiously probed.

Shen Tian was taken aback.

indeed.

This Wind Demon Wolf is huge, and it doesn't have any storage space. It can't possibly drag a bloody corpse into the city, can it?

That would attract more attention, but it would also make him more likely to be arrested by the city guards as a pervert.

"You have connections?"

Shen Tian asked.

"Yes! Absolutely!"

The one-eyed man patted his chest and guaranteed it.

"Baldy and I have been in this business for over a decade. We may not have any other skills, but we know exactly how to handle stolen goods... cough cough, we're experts at sales channels."

"Leave the materials from these Wind Demon Wolves to us."

"I guarantee you'll get a good price!"

Shen Tian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked the one-eyed man up and down.

"How much is the handling fee?"

Since it's business, we have to talk about money.

Even close brothers keep clear accounts.

The one-eyed man waved his hands repeatedly, shaking his head like a rattle drum.

"Free of charge! Not a penny!"

"It's our honor to be able to help Brother Shen."

"Besides, if Brother Shen becomes successful in the Po Jun Division in the future, a little help to the brothers would be an immense favor."

The bald man chimed in from the side:

"Yes, yes, free service, satisfaction guaranteed!"

The two of them were calculating their moves very quickly.

How much is the handling fee?

If we could connect with a rising star of the Po Jun Si (破军司), that would be a long-term business.

Shen Tian touched his chin.

Free labor?

That's great!

But he's not the kind of naive person who gets sold out and then helps the seller count the money.

"OK."

Shen Tian nodded and took out the broken phone with a cracked screen from his pocket.

"But let me make this clear from the start."

"The market prices for these materials are available online."

"I will look into it."

One-Eyed and Bald Man broke out in a cold sweat.

How come this kid is even more cunning than those unscrupulous merchants?

"I wouldn't dare! Absolutely not!"

One-Eyed thumped his chest loudly.

"Don't worry, Brother Shen, if I dare to embezzle even a single penny, may I be struck by lightning!"

"I'll transfer the money to your account as soon as I get the goods!"

Shen Tian nodded in satisfaction.

"sensible."

"Alright, then you can have this pile of materials."

After saying that, Shen Tian handed over all the materials he had obtained from killing the alien beasts to them.

Then he turned and walked towards Lin Qingyi.

After watching the one-eyed man and the bald man disappear into the bushes like foxes who had stolen a chicken, carrying large bags of materials, Shen Tian finally looked away.

Free porters, might as well use them.

As for whether the two will abscond with the money?

Shen Tian wasn't worried at all.

In this wilderness, offending someone from the Po Jun Si is worse than jumping directly into a beast tide.

Unless they want to make their home inside the monster's belly.

Shen Tian dusted off his hands and turned back to Lin Qingyi.

at this time.

The atmosphere at the scene was a little strange.

"Is it all done?"

Lin Qingyi asked casually.

She didn't seem to dislike Shen Tian's "plucking feathers from a passing goose" behavior; in fact, her eyes even revealed a hint of approval.

In the wilderness, wasting resources is shameful.

Knowing how to utilize everything available is a basic quality of a qualified soldier.

"It's over."

Shen Tian grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth.

Lin Qingyi raised her wrist and looked at the sophisticated tactical watch.

"The mission is complete. We need to return to headquarters immediately to report."

"You'll need to go back to the base to complete the onboarding procedures."

Done.

Lin Qingyi pointed to the enormous shadow that stretched across the sky and earth in the distance.

At the edge of the horizon, under a hazy sky, stands a towering wall.

That is the [cliff].

Humanity spent a century building a super defense line against the invasion of alien beasts, using countless steel and blood.

"There's a supply depot at the bottom of the cliff; military transport vehicles will pass by there."

Lin Qingyi continued.

"We need to get back at full speed."

"We'll go first."

"We'll be waiting for you at outpost number 3, down the cliff."

Lin Qingyi's tone was very calm; she was simply stating a fact.

In her understanding.

There is an insurmountable gap between martial artists and those in the mortal realm.

It's not just a difference in strength.

It is an all-round crushing victory in terms of physical function, endurance, and speed.

She can easily reach speeds exceeding 80 kilometers per hour when she accelerates at full speed, and can maintain that speed for a long time.

Reggae and Afei were a little slower than her.

But at least it won't hold her back.

"Alright."

Shen Tian shrugged and didn't argue.

"Then it's settled."

Lin Qingyi nodded.

next second.

Her figure suddenly blurred.

boom!

The ground trembled slightly.

Shen Tian only felt a blur before his eyes, and Lin Qingyi shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

There was no running start, no power build-up.

Pure explosive power!

In the blink of an eye, she had already appeared a hundred meters away, leaving only a cold and aloof figure.

"Hehe, kid, take it slow, don't exhaust yourself!"

Afei winked and grinned at Shen Tian.

Then, he exerted force with both legs.

Boom!

He stepped into a shallow pit in the ground.

Similarly.

Reggae, this towering giant, charged with the ferocity of a tank, leaving a trail of dust as he rumbled after Lin Qingyi.

The three of them were incredibly fast.

They left two long trails of dust across the wilderness and quickly disappeared into the distance.

"No, who said we can't catch up with you?"
