“Hello to the three teachers and Colonel Brock, how are you?”

Seeing the four people walking towards him, Jack Clark greeted them politely.

Emmitt Wesley laughed loudly: “Haha… Student Clark, it’s good to see you too. You’ve achieved another breakthrough in such a short time. It seems that we Eastern Summer people have quite a few talents.”

“Indeed, a dragon among men,” praised Jerrold West.

Cameron Raven smiled and said, “Jack, you should visit the military barracks more often when you have the time. The battle achievements of the soldiers during their cultivation might inspire you.”

“By the way, I remember that General Raven’s younger brother, Mr. Laurant Hawk, happens to be the head instructor at South Sky Martial Height. I guess we are all family.”

Jack Clark was puzzled and surprised by their enthusiasm and said, “…I did not expect the head instructor and the general to be brothers.”

Cameron Raven smiled, “It’s quite normal. The Federation’s military and colleges are both dedicated to cultivating the backbone of humanity, just with different focuses.”

“In such a situation, many strong cultivators will hold positions in both the military and colleges. Jack, if you’re ever interested in the military, feel free to join…”

Cough!

At this time, Sylvia Lyons interrupted Cameron Raven, stepping forward and said, “Jack, you’ve made good progress, but after your next breakthrough, remember to cover your body with your spirit will to keep your aura in check.”

As she spoke, Sylvia Lyons slapped her palm onto Jack, instantly sweeping his body with a fierce surge of her willpower, suppressing the invisible charm leaking from him.

The oppressive air that Jack unintentionally emitted disappeared, and he looked much more ordinary.

Sylvia Lyons waved her hand at him, “I remember your spirit seemed a bit exhausted when you returned yesterday. You’ve been training hard today, so go get some rest.”

I looked pretty lively when I returned last night, didn’t I?

Despite being puzzled, Jack sensed Sylvia’s intentions to have him leave and politely greeted the others before departing.

On the way back, recalling the behavior of the four people earlier, Jack whispered to himself, “It seems that they noticed something because I didn’t fully conceal my aura.”

After finishing his cultivation, Jack also tried to cover his body with Spirit Power, restraining the invisible oppressive air emitted, to prevent people from detecting it.

But he didn’t know whether it was because the breakthrough was too big or his simple aura restraining method didn’t work.

Pondering, Jack returned to the hotel.

It was already noon, so he went straight to the restaurant on the third floor.

Jack soon realized that many people were looking at him, which made him frown. What was wrong? Hadn’t Sylvia’s intervention fully concealed his breakthrough aura?

At this moment, Justin Welan came over, asking curiously, “Jack, what did you do? Your skin has suddenly become so good-looking?”

“Skin…?” Jack paused.

“Yeah.”

Justin said enviously, “You’re already handsome, and now your skin is suddenly looking great too. Don’t you see all those female students drooling?”

Now, Jack’s skin was as delicate as jade, and he had a calm and composed demeanor that drew attention.

This was also the reason he was being stared at.

So that was the reason. Jack’s eyes flickered, and he casually found an excuse: “It should be because of the Level 3 Life Crystal I received.”

“Level 3 Life Crystal has a beauty effect too?” Justin’s eyes lit up.

“I’m not sure. It could also be because of my Cultivation Methods,” Jack didn’t make any definite statement.

Actually, it should be due to his Dragon Elephant Power. The introduction of the cultivation method had mentioned that when Dragon Elephant Power is cultivated to the extreme, some unique effects might appear on the body.

One of them is having skin as tough as steel but with the form of jade.

However, he definitely couldn’t tell Justin this. After all, everyone thought he had just broken through the Third Layer Heaven not long ago, so suddenly cultivating his method to the extreme was too exaggerated.

As for whether or not Justin would exchange for the Level 3 Life Crystal just to look whiter, Jack didn’t care.

Even if he didn’t say anything, Justin would still exchange for the Level 3 Life Crystal to speed up his physique cultivation, so the truth wouldn’t have much impact.

After eating, Jack returned to his room and prepared to cultivate using the energy crystal he had exchanged for.

Compared to the Blue Crystal that Justin had given him, the crystal that could only be exchanged by Fourth Layer Heaven cultivators had a much lower energy purity and quantity.

With a deep breath, the Dragon Elephant Power circulated, and the formidable suction emanated from Jack, attracting the sparse, transcendent energy to converge towards him.

At the same time, a stream of pure energy flowed from the crystal into Jack’s body through his palm, which was rapidly refined by the overwhelming Dragon Elephant True Strength, resulting in almost no waste.

Once his internal cultivation was on track, Jack slowly divided half of his mind to where the Sword Armor Beast was.

As his Spirit Power grew stronger, he became more proficient with multitasking.

Under normal circumstances, he could now easily operate from two perspectives. Only when the Sword Armor Beast or his main body encountered a battle would he concentrate most of his attention.

The light was dim in the sea, more than 60 meters deep.

A Unique Beast, almost six meters long, swam slowly, carefully sensing the fluctuations and smells of the surrounding seawater, searching for prey to hunt.

At this depth, even the Sword Armor Beast couldn’t see far, and everything beyond 20 or 30 meters was vague and murky .The Sword Armor Beast swam in the water for half an hour, but the schools of fish it encountered were mostly 1 to 2 meters of “seafood.” There were no larger ferocious mutated fish.

It seems that most of the mutated fish in this area have been eaten. We’ll need to go further and deeper,” the Sword Armor Beast’s tail flicked, disappearing into the darkness.

For safety, the Sword Armor Beast has been active within a 50-kilometer range of the coast this week, with the deepest place being only 70 meters, covering the surrounding hunting range.

However, the number of mutated fish in a sea area is limited. Under its constant hunting, those more than 5 meters long and reaching the mutated level have been almost eaten up.

This time, the Sword Armor Beast swam out several dozens of kilometers in one breath before slowing down.

It was already more than 100 kilometers away from the coast, and the sea below was pitch black, with no way of knowing how deep it was.

The reason the Sword Armor Beast stopped was that it had a keen sense of out-of-placeness when it arrived here. The heavenly energy contained in the sea was much denser.

“Strange, is there something good nearby?” The Sword Armor Beast’s eyes scanned the surroundings, its golden vertical pupils revealing caution.

It was because it found the place to be eerily quiet, with no marine life visible at all.

Just then, the Sword Armor Beast suddenly looked towards the bottom left, where a massive shadow flashed by, and the water waves caused by its movement rippled far away.

Interesting. The Sword Armor Beast flicked its tail and chased after the massive shadow.

Under the combination of power, defense, and agility, it was confident that as long as it did not provoke the marine giant beasts, it could escape any danger from ordinary mutated fish.

Soon, the Sword Armor Beast caught up to the depths of 200 meters, 300 meters. The intense water pressure from all directions forced it to slow down.

However, at this moment, a faint light emerged from the dark depths in the distance. The Sword Armor Beast could not help but become cautious, slowly approaching.

At the bottom of the sea, about 500 meters down, a volcano-like small hill emerged, but instead of magma in the crater, it was covered with red and blue corals.

These corals emanated a faint blue and red glow, bringing some light to the surrounding pitch-black sea area.

At this moment, around the crater, seven-meter, ten-meter, and even more than ten or twenty-meter mutated fish slowly swam around, their huge mouths slightly open, swallowing something.

These mutated fish resembled giant groupers with a short blue horn on their heads. Their entire bodies, scales, and fins were blue and crystal-clear, looking like beautiful blue crystals.

Looking at the group of about twenty mutated fish, the Sword Armor Beast almost drooled.

However, it didn’t rush forward recklessly. It hid in the dark sea, quietly waiting and observing.

This was its first encounter with mutated fish schools, so it was unsure what differences there were between them and other mutated fish species.

As the Sword Armor Beast patiently waited, half an hour later, one by one, the 7-meter Crystal Horn Fish turned away, followed by the second and third.

After the 7-meter ones left, the 8-meter and 9-meter ones followed, leaving only three fishes over 15 meters long, circling around the crater.

The Sword Armor Beast lay low on the pitch-black ocean floor, waiting for another half-hour. Seeing that the three massive Crystal Horn Fish had no intention of leaving, it gave up the idea of going over to take a look.

In the darkness, the Sword Armor Beast slowly retreated along the bottom of the sea, avoiding causing too much water disturbance that would be detected.

After it exited the sea area for several kilometers, it flicked its tail and quickly swam to the upper-left direction, where some 7-meter long Crystal Horn Fish were.

In the water, the Sword Armor Beast was very fast, swimming more than 10 kilometers in a short time, and caught up with a Crystal Horn Fish at a depth of over 100 meters.

The mutated fish was hunting at this time. Its target was a school of more than 1-meter long mackerel with faint traces of mutation, its enormous body charging wildly and devouring nonstop.

Occasionally, the blue crystal on the fish’s head would shoot out a weak blue light beam, reaching more than 10 meters away. All the mackerel hit by the blue light beam would stiffen up.

The seawater was even frozen and turned into an arm-thick, more than

10-meter long ice crystal before being shattered and melted by the swaying water.

This scene caused the Sword Armor Beast’s eyes to narrow.

It was a mutated fish capable of energy attacks. According to the official classification of mutated beasts, this mutated fish had reached at least Level 4.

However, in the Sword Armor Beast’s perception, this “Level 4” Crystal Horn Fish seemed a bit weak, as the danger it emitted was not even comparable to that of the mutated fat fish?

Strange.

In its confusion, the Sword Armor Beast revealed cold and ruthless eyes, as its black and hideous body silently approached.

When the distance between them was less than 20 meters, the Sword Armor Beast’s tail suddenly flicked, explosively bursting forth with terrifying speed. Like a black shadow, it tore through the water.

Bang!

The pouncing Sword Armor Beast struck the back of the Crystal Horn Fish’s brain with a single claw swipe. In that instant, the water under the claw exploded, and the terrifying force and speed of the swipe almost created a vacuum.

With such a horrifying attack and such terrifying speed, the Crystal Horn mutated fish had not yet reacted, and half of its brain was shattered like a watermelon.

Blood mixed with white matter splattered everywhere, turning the surrounding seawater red, and the thick bloody smell made the black mutant beast seem even more terrifying.

The surrounding mackerel school burst apart in the invisible murderous aura, frantically fleeing.

The Sword Armor Beast was not interested in the mackerel with only faint traces of mutation. It excitedly grabbed the Crystal Horn Fish’s body and bit down on the back.

Crack!

Sharp teeth tore through the fish scales, ripping off a large chunk of flesh and blood. More blood spewed out, rendering the surrounding seawater within a range of tens of meters even redder.

The Sword Armor Beast’s eyes lit up as it tasted the rich energy contained in the mutated fish’s flesh and blood..
