Zhao Yong could not help but say, “In the beginning, we did rob others, but later… we were robbed. We barely obtained these Soul Nurturing Flowers after working hard…”

Yang Wei was instantly furious, “Trash! Fool!”

Zhao Yong said in a low voice, “We were originally very lucky and really obtained more than 600. However, we encountered a Gold Swallowing Lizard and got beat up. After beating us up, it ran away. In the end, Sun Zhiguo and the others happened to appear and snatched us away.”

“Brother Yang, believe me. That Gold Swallowing Lizard is really impressive. It’s at level nine Zero Realm and its attributes are comparable to a King Realm expert…”

Yang Wei was so furious that he slapped Zhao Yong, making him almost spin 360 degrees on the spot.

“Bullsh*t! The Gold Swallowing Lizard can at most grow to the level six Zero Realm. You’re at level nine Zero Realm. Even if the Gold Swallowing Lizard is difficult to kill, you can still chase it away! How can you think of such a lie?! Do you think I’m stupid?!”

Zhao Yong covered his face and was speechless.

He also felt that this was impossible.

However, that Gold Swallowing Lizard was really at the level nine level of the zero level. Its attributes were even more impressive than those of a mystic realm king.

“Hahahaha! Yang Wei, this wasteland reclaimer under you sure knows how to joke.” Manager Number Two could not help but laugh.

Yang Wei turned around and smiled apologetically, “Sir, I’m sorry for embarrassing you.”

Number Two was done laughing. “I don’t care if this is the truth or a lie. If you can’t complete the mission, everyone from District B, including you, will have to be punished.”

Yang Wei hurriedly nodded and said, “Don’t worry, other than Zhao Yong and the others, I still have other wasteland reclaimers. They definitely have enough!”

Zhao Yong also hurriedly said, “That’s right, that’s right. I believe that they will definitely be able to complete the mission. The way they looked at me just now was very confident! Brother Yang, don’t be anxious.”

The wasteland reclaimers were immediately anxious. “Zhao Yong! We saw the confidence in your eyes just now and thought that you had obtained enough!”

Yang Wei’s heart skipped a beat, and he was so furious that he almost fainted.

He roared, “Take it out, take it all out!”

These wasteland reclaimers could only hand over the items obediently.

Yang Wei counted and realized that the total number of items obtained by all the wasteland reclaimers under his command was only 205! They were far from meeting the requirements!

He was so furious that his entire body trembled. “You! What problem did you encounter again?!”

The wasteland reclaimers looked at each other. Finally, someone could not help but say, “Brother Yang, it was all because of a Gold Swallowing Lizard…”

Zhao Yong was dumbfounded. “Ah? You guys encountered it too?”

Yang Wei slapped that wasteland reclaimer away.

“Idiots! You should at least come up with a different lie! Do you really think I’m stupid?!”

Manager Number Two exclaimed softly, “It’s the Gold Swallowing Lizard again. Could it be true?”

Seeing Yang Wei’s furious expression multiple times, Lin Xuan finally could not help but laugh.

After the Gold Swallowing Lizard beat up Zhao Yong and the others, it immediately attacked the other wasteland reclaimers in District B under Lin Xuan’s special control. It beat them up until they cried for their parents. They were unable to obtain anything after that.

“Stop laughing, stop laughing!” Yang Wei berated.

Lu Luo flashed and appeared in front of Lin Xuan and the others. She frowned and said, “Looks like your skin is really itchy. Let’s go to the martial arts arena and fight later. I guarantee that your skin itchiness will be relieved.”

Yang Wei was so furious that his face and neck turned red, “…I’m scolding myself! Can’t I!”

Manager Number Two smiled playfully. “Looks like District B will be punished for not completing the mission.”

Yang Wei gritted his teeth.

Number Two looked at the pillar map on the big screen again. The inventory of all the wasteland reclaimers in District A and D had been calculated.

District A had 558, and District D had 538.

Only District C had not been completely calculated. However, currently, they only had 100. Including Lin Xuan and Sun Zhiguo, there were only 11 people left who had not handed in their items.

Under normal circumstances, the chances were slim.

Lu Luo did not have much emotion on her face, but her pale fingers that were clenched tightly revealed her inner turmoil.

Lin Xuan noticed this and smiled. “Sister Lu, don’t worry. The first place for this mystic realm mission belongs to our District C. No one can take it away.”

Lu Luo was stunned. This guy was called Lin… Lin what?

How could he be so bold?

Yang Wei also had a puzzled expression, but he was very cautious and did not say anything to ridicule. What if he got slapped in the face?

He had already been slapped twice today. If he was slapped again, he would not be able to handle it.

Lin Xuan, Sun Zhiguo, and the others looked at each other and took out the items on their bodies.

Crash.

In the pillar map, the pillars in District C soared crazily, instantly surpassing District A and District D and reaching an astonishing 748.

Lu Luo was pleasantly surprised and took a long time to calm down. “How did you guys get this?”

Sun Zhiguo glanced at the livid Zhao Yong and the others and smiled. “Sister Lu, we were first robbed by Zhao Yong and the others, but we ended up robbing them instead.”

“Lin Xuan overheard the conversation of Zhao Yong and the others and knew that they were going to a place where many Rock Belly Fruits grow. We followed behind and successfully reaped the benefits.”

The other martial artists also nodded. “Yes, Lin Xuan is definitely the best. Otherwise, our District C might very well be the last place.”

This time, Lu Luo finally looked at Lin Xuan seriously. “Lin Xuan, I’ve remembered you. Not bad.”

Lin Xuan smiled.

He had finally obtained the approval of the Overseer. In this way, he could find Lu Luo for help in the future.

Manager Number Two also looked at Lin Xuan with interest.

“I didn’t expect District C to get first place in the end. Very good!”

“The rewards will be given to you in at most an hour. As for Lu Luo, you can choose two precious purple equipment from the Equipment Department.”

Lu Luo nodded slightly at Manager Number Two. “Yes.”

The mystic realm mission ended with District C obtaining the first place, and District B becoming the last place. As a result, the wasteland reclaimers and the overseer were demoted and punished.

Lin Xuan’s star level in the Germinal Organization had increased from a four-star wasteland reclaimer to a five-star wasteland reclaimer.

…

After a month of fun, Lin Xuan had obtained a lot of experience points through the Steel Soldier Ants in the Demon Ant Nest and had successfully increased his martial artist’s level from level four to level nine of First Realm.

A First Realm martial artist could obtain three attribute points every time they leveled up. Thus, he naturally invested all of it into his Constitution. In this way, his Constitution increased by 27 points! His Constitution attribute increased from 51 to 78 points!

During this period of training, he had even obtained a set directly.

This set was called the “Steel Shield Set”. It was made of four parts of the head, upper body, belt, and arm. It was dropped after a Steel Soldier Ant died.

The effect of the four-piece set was that any attack that landed on one’s body would increase their physical resistance by 5%. At most, the effects could be stacked for 5 minutes.

This set of equipment was upgraded to level nine First Realm by Lin Xuan in a single breath. In any case, he had a lot of equipment essence to spare.

His Dragon Hunter Shield and Earth Dragon King Hammer Shield had also consumed a lot of equipment essence to advance to the level nine of the First Realm

Also, he had consumed a lot of experience points to advance to level nine First Realm.

Lastly, he obtained many attribute items in the Demon Ant Nest.

Flame Flower ,+1% Fire Damage.

Lightning Flower ,+1% Lightning Damage.

Poison Bag Fruit ,+1% poison damage.

Frost Grass Seed ,+1% Cold Ice Damage.

Fluorescent Mushroom ,+1% health recovery speed.

Needle-Eye Fruit ,+0.2% critical attack.

Explosion Fruit ,+1% critical damage.

Moonlight Grass ,+1% maximum magic power.

Flickering Root ,+1% maximum health.

Lin Xuan had already eaten all of these attribute items, but even so, he had still accumulated a lot of them in his consciousness space.

“It’s time to challenge the mystic realm king of the Demon Ant Nest.” Lin Xuan was satisfied. He changed into the equipment worn by the “Shield Ghost” and headed to the Giant Rock Cave. He then arrived at the Demon Ant Nest through the teleportation gate of the Giant Rock Cave.
