[Subscribe for the official version] âOf course, Mister Jia Yan, my invitation will only take effect once you achieve Stellar status.
You need not worry about it now.â
As Jia Yan was pondering, Longta spoke again, interrupting his thoughts.
âSo it is, I thought I could obtain Lordâs appreciation right now,â Jia Yan said with a faint smile upon hearing this.
âIâm not sure about your talent, but I am satisfied with your pace of advancement.
And this is just a preliminary notification.
I will submit your observation report right away.
The day you reach Stellar Level, it might not be someone of my level who comes to invite you.â
âA Strong One even mightier than Senior Longta to invite me?â
Jia Yan was startled for a moment, then shook his head indifferently.
He was just a Dignitary; achieving Stellar Level was quite uncertain.
âJia Yan, let me give you some advice.
Your talent is somewhat wasted on the fringes of the Genius Battlefield.
Moreover, you canât maximize your strength here.
You really must go to the center of the Genius Battlefield, where someone with your genius can truly shine.
Do you understand?â Longta, seeing Jia Yanâs respectful attitude, offered his counsel.
It was unprecedented for the officials of the Genius Battlefield to offer guidance to geniuses in the battlefield.
For Longta to make such a suggestion to Jia Yan was extraordinary.
âThe central region of the Genius Battlefield, huh?
Thank you, Senior Longta.
After I enhance my strength here in the 132 Star Zone and take care of some matters when I return to the 215 Star Zone, I will head to the central region.â Jia Yan nodded and accepted Longtaâs advice.
And indeed, that had been his plan all along.
âSince you intend to go to the central region, Iâll let you know to be prepared.
The central region is not like these outskirtsâit has more killing and power struggles than here.
I hope you can take good care of yourself by then.â
A large chest appeared in front of Longta, which held the rewards for the three champions.
âJia Yan, these are your rewards for this time.
Since you will still be in the 132 Star Zone for a while, perhaps weâll have the chance to meet again.
Farewell.â
After speaking, Longta quietly disappeared from Jia Yanâs sight, and even with such a huge body, Jia Yan did not notice how he vanished.
âSo powerful!â
Jia Yan gazed around blankly, and after sensing no presence, he resignedly withdrew his gaze.
He knew that compared to Stellar Level, his strength was still insufficient.
Even from Longtaâs words, if he were to fight a peer High-Level Genius, the outcome was uncertain, let alone facing the top geniuses who were even stronger.
âThe Genius Battlefield is indeed interesting.
And because it is, I must become stronger right here, isnât that right?â
No discouragement in his heart, Jia Yan was filled with fighting spirit instead.
The award was the usual variety, only more generous than the reward from Mighty Power.
Among them, what surprised Jia Yan was the inclusion of two space stones.
âVery well, with the energy from these rewards, plus some unique resources, my strength can greatly soar once more.â
Jia Yan, brimming with motivation, carried the chest and slowly flew back towards the territory of the Pingtian power.
In the space that he had left behind, unbeknownst to Jia Yan, a massive creature was watching from not far away, looking faintly as he departed.
It was Longta who had spoken to Jia Yan before.
âThis Jia YanâŠ
he is indeed from that place,â a trace of surprise flickered within Longtaâs eyes.
âThat place, a very long time ago, was where a powerful monster fought against several Predecessors of the Star River.
It is said that even at the end of its life, the monster still fought tempestuously with several Galaxy Level Powerhouses.
In the end, none could best the other, and those powerhouses swore never to enter that Star Zone again.â
Remembering the ancient rumors he had heard, Longtaâs eyes filled with amazement.
âIt is said that the powerful monster was of a species called theâŠ
Evolutionary Creature, right?
I wonder if this Jia Yan has any connection to that formidable being.
Though, probably there is no relation.â
âŠ
Jia Yan was unaware that Longta behind him was also cognizant of the name of the Evolutionary Creature.
He would never have imagined that once, an Evolutionary Creature held such stature throughout the entire Starry Sky.
Of course, Jia Yan knew that in ancient times, an Evolutionary Creature had emerged from the Orion Arm, and that was the reason for his transport from Earth by Ao Si.
Despite not having pieced it all together yet, this did not hinder him because nothing from the past in the Orion Arm could prevent his pursuit of strength.
âOh oh oh, look everyone, our three-time champion genius has returned.â
When Jia Yan returned to the racetrack, he hadnât expected that most of the audience there still hadnât dispersed, nor had the participants.
Instead, they waited in place for Jia Yanâs return.
Needless to say, they werenât going to welcome someone who once again relied on luck, or perhaps used some unknown method to obtain the championship, with open arms.
âThe Dignitary amidst controversy dares to return, huh?
If it were me, Iâd have slunk away in disgrace.â
âExactly, does he still want the reward from the Pingtian power?
Truly shameless.â
As Jia Yan descended, the audience seats erupted with voices of denouncement, and even some Strong Ones in the competitor seats were incited to speak coldly and sarcastically about Jia Yan.
Of course, Jia Yan acted as if he saw nothing.
He was also surprised by his own victory, but whether or not it was truly deserved, the championship was his, and he was certainly not going to miss out on the rewards offered by the Pingtian power.
âAlright, the reward from my power is here, Mister Jia Yan, please take it.â
A Semi-permanent Star Level Genius stepped onto the competition platform, looking somewhat sternly at Jia Yan: âHad I known earlier, I would have also registered for this competition and had the chance to witness Mister Jia Yanâs capabilities.â
ââŠâ
Jia Yan didnât care about the opponentâs words.
After receiving the reward, it, together with the prize from Longta, both chests emitted an enviable jewel-like sheen, giving off the feeling of a nouveau riche.
âThis is the championship reward for several Great Levels.
Can this Jia Yan, a Dignitary, really digest it?
Itâs simply a waste of heavenly materials.â
Somewhat sour comments began to spread.
The majority of spectators and competitors believed that a Dignitary did not deserve this kind of Level reward, but they had no thoughts of snatching it away either.
After all, the Genius Battlefield had just ended not long ago, and to start robbing now, let alone whether the officials of the genius battle domain would investigate, even the Pingtian power would not agree.
âSenior Tiejin, letâs go.
Iâm afraid if we stay here any longer, it will incite public anger.â Jia Yan returned to the Tornado Force and mentioned to Tai Jin with a touch of self-mockery.
âAlright.â
A group of genius strong ones from the Tornado Force soared together, heading towards the direction of the Fleet.
The other powersâ strong ones, as well as the spectators, though still grumbling, were unable to stop them.
Above the starry sky, the Tornado Forceâs creatures and the Adisa boarded by Jia Yan once again traveled for a full five to six days.
âAlright, weâve come this far, thereâs no worry of any power coming to encircle us now.â
Tai Jin from the Tornado Force looked at the starry sky behind with some helplessness and then burst into bitter laughter.
It turns out that after leaving from the Pingtian power, some of the powersâ battleships followed them.
Although they did not appear to take direct action, the pressure brought upon the Tornado Forceâs strong ones was immense.
The reward Jia Yan received was naturally not enough to provoke other powers into rash action, but whether their indignation over Jia Yanâs method of victory would lead to them taking action was unknown to anyone.
âWe originally planned to go to another powerâs Genius Battlefield, but it seems we have missed the timing.â
Tai Jin looked out at the view from the bridge, with the huge Adisa situated at the center of the entire fleet, while Jia Yan seemed not to have shown up at all these past few days.
Just as he was worried and about to send out a Brainwave Power enquiry about Jia Yanâs situation.
The Adisa suddenly erupted with a burst of fluctuation.
This fluctuation came very unexpectedly; no one knew that at this moment such a Brainwave Power fluctuation would explode so suddenly.
Moreover, this Brainwave Power moved at an extremely fast speed, with a bombardment that carried no attributes, no different than if a bomb had exploded.
The Adisa itself, of course, bore the brunt of it, with the entire body of the ship swaying.
Fortunately, there seemed to be defenses prepared in advance, and after just a shake, there were not too many repercussions.
A Warrior Warship that was extremely close to the Adisa wasnât so lucky.
At just over 700 meters in length, the Brainwave Power that burst forth directly smashed it against another Battleship, both ships emitting sparks and suffering damages.
A big repair bill was inevitable.
Of course, the Brainwave Power wasnât strong enough to destroy a battleship, but after sweeping through just once, it quieted down and there were no more disturbances.
âWhat happened?â
The strong ones of the Tornado Force were all shocked as they turned their gaze towards the Adisa where Jia Yan was.
âCould something have happened to Mister Jia Yan?â
Most expressing concern and amazement were the geniuses below the Secondary Powerhouse level, while the Semi-permanent Star Level experts, including Tai Jin, all had expressions as if they had seen a ghost.
âThis fluctuationâŠ
it must be the energy fluctuation of a promotion or breakthrough, right?
Could it beâŠâ
Tai Jin and a Semi-permanent Star Level colleague beside him exchanged a somewhat panic-stricken look.
They thought of a possibility.
The explosive fluctuation from earlier, in their view, had already surpassed that of an ordinary Secondary Powerhouse.
The previous Jia Yan, though powerful, was after all not too far from a regular Secondary Powerhouse in terms of Brainwave Power Level, but the Brainwave Power that had just exploded was like that of a powerful Secondary Powerhouse.
This only indicated one thing.
It was that Jia Yan had once again made a breakthrough!
Indeed, just as they were all astounded, a faintly amused voice transmitted from the Adisa.
âSenior Tai Jin and everyone else, I apologize for causing property loss to your power due to my breakthrough, I will compensate for it.â Jia Yanâs voice said so.
