While Jack Clark “retreated” for crafting extraordinary weapons and battle armor, a heavy figure oozing insanity walked into the base square.
His height of 2.2 meters, his dark red armor barely held in place by tensed muscles, and the four-meter-long steel bar thicker than his thigh he carried on his shoulder were all giving off a king-like presence.
It was indeed Howard Lee, who had been in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range for more than half a month.
A slow stride brought him under the big screen on the side. After inputting his student ID, he rested his hand on the sensor below, pouring in his True Strength.
Soon, red large characters emerged on dozens of screens around the Martial Height Base.
“Howard Lee, South Sky Martial Height, early stage of Fourth Layer Heaven, breakthrough on the sixteenth of February, 25th in the First-Grade Talent Rankings!”
“Damn it! South Sky Martial Height again.”
“Are there so many monsters in this year’s South Sky Martial Heights? Three people have already broken through the Fourth Layer and entered the genius list in such a short period,”
“It’s not just the genius list, two of them have killed their way to the top 1,000 in the achievement list.”
At this moment, many two third-grade senior students in the South Sky Martial Height Base also looked up at the large characters on the screen.
Seeing another monster breaking through the Fourth Layer Heaven in half a year, they suddenly feel fatigued.
A student at the initial stage of the Third Layer said in annoyance: “When will these days end? Every day, we have to watch others show off.”
A person next to him nodded in agreement: “Yeah, although we are all ‘geniuses,’ we have been cultivating for a year or two and still struggling at the Second or Third Layer. Why can they breakthrough at such a swift speed?”
“Nonsense, if you dare to go into the mountains to hunt mutated beasts, squeezing your potential by fighting every day, you might have already broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven.”
“Cough! Forget it then, it’s too dangerous to go deep into the mountains. I think it’s fine as it is now. Steady cultivation every day can also gradually make me stronger.”
“Exactly, those guys are experiencing life-and-death battles every day. Their minds are always tense. Their subconscious will be crazy for strength.”
“Under such circumstances, both the focus of cultivation, the activity of True Strength, and the efficiency of resource transformation are several times ours.”
“However, there are pros and cons. Their casualty rate is also high. I heard that Frank Carlson from Class 5 passed away a few days ago.”
“What? Frank Carlson from Class 5 is dead? Didn’t he already break through to the mid-stage of Fourth Layer Heaven?”
“Yes, reportedly, he was killed by a Level 5 mutated beast. Even the corpse is untraceable.”
“After receiving the notice, a teacher has departed to find and kill that Level 5 mutated beast in the hope of finding components of Frank Carlson.”
“Another one has perished. It is fortunate that we had initially chosen the conservative route.” Several seniors chatting on the steps suddenly sighed, glad that they had made the right decision back then.
After all, no matter how fast the progress, you have to stay alive to enjoy it. Over the past year, they have seen many familiar names disappearing.
“Only 25th rank!?”
Howard Lee looked up at his rank shown on the big screen with frustration. He had thought that his return after half a month of experience would amaze everyone.
At that moment, the red characters on the screen began to fade, and the screen switched to display the talent rankings of the first, second, and third grades.
As Howard Lee looked up from his name on the First-Grade Talent Rankings, he saw Jane Aiken in the sixteenth place, followed by Jack Clark in sixth place.
Howard Lee was momentarily dazed, not expecting that Jack Clark had arrived at the Alien Beast Battlefield and had broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven even before him!
Immediately, a wild battle intent gradually appeared on Howard’s face: “It’s good that this guy is here, and he has breakthrough the Fourth Layer Heaven. It’s a perfect time to settle our previous pledge.”
He had gained a lot during his time in the Alien Beast Battlefield.
Over the past two months, he had earned a ton of contribution points by hunting mutated beasts incessantly. He had exchanged about seven hundred contributions worth of complementary resources in total.
Now, not only had he broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven, but he had also successfully condensed into the Bull Devil Battle Body, which would terrifyingly enhance his battle power, far surpassing his current realm.
At this moment, the likes of Jane Aiken and Ian Clark were insignificant in his eyes.
Are they just breaking through the realm ten days or half a month earlier? Can their battle power compare with him who had already condensed the Bull Devil Battle Body in the Fourth Layer Heaven?
Inside the cultivation room, after becoming somewhat familiar with the Flame Crystal Armor he had successfully crafted, Jack Clark finally left.
His weapon and battle armor had been upgraded. Now it was time to continue hunting Level 5 mutated beasts in order to accumulate contribution points to exchange for high-order Dragon Blood and break through the fifth layer.
Besides, enhancing the extraordinary equipment this time cost him two hundred contribution points and 105 attribute points.
The armor, originally damaged, only had 5 strength points left. He had used 5 more attribute points to enhance it to limit before crafting the extraordinary armor.
This means that Jack Clark had spent about three hundred contribution points on the extraordinary weapon and armor. It was worth a fortune.
However, with this set of equipment, not only has his combat power been further enhanced, but his defense is also stronger. Even faced with Level 6 mutated beasts, he could safely retreat if not able to beat them.
Just as Jack Clark was pondering whether to take the day off and set off tomorrow or to venture into the mountains now, a fierce figure appeared in the distance.
Seeing the wild Howard Lee, Jack Clark was surprised before smiling: “Long time no see, Howard Lee. It looks like you’ve already broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven.”
Compared to Howard Lee in worn-out battle armor and wielding a heavy weapon, Jack Clark in a leisure suit seemed much more casual..
