Unfortunately, a night passed, and no fierce beast appeared.

Although he was mentally prepared for this, Xu Yi was still a bit disappointed.

After all, Xu Yi also wanted to return to the camp early; he didn’t want Lu Ke and the others to worry.

Figuring out the strength of a level 4 fierce beast early would also help determine whether to let everyone enter the activity area of level 4 fierce beasts.

"System, check in."

Xu Yi completed his check-in on the 162nd day, then began practicing the Body Refining Technique.

He realized the effect of practicing the Body Refining Technique here seemed better than at any previous time.

It seemed to be due to the more abundant ’spiritual energy’ in this place.

After four rounds, Xu Yi walked out of the tent.

After tidying up the tent and roasting two sweet potatoes to eat, Xu Yi continued exploring forward with Lightning.

Today, he still needed to search for level 4 fierce beasts.

"Lu Ke, stop worrying. Xu Yi is definitely fine; he’s a Divine Master, much stronger than us."

Seeing Lu Ke constantly checking the Star Chart map to see Xu Yi’s location, Wang Jin advised.

Lu Ke couldn’t help but smile at Wang Jin, then put down her left hand and said, "He’s starting to move, must have finished breakfast. Okay, let’s eat. Old Fan and I still need to go hunting today."

"It’d be great if the Star Chart had a communication function; then everyone could contact Brother Xu," Zhou Mo said somewhat frustratedly.

Upon hearing Zhou Mo’s words, Lu Ke immediately said, "Actually, the Star Chart does have this function; it just hasn’t been activated for us. It might be activated after the 500-day challenge ends, or in the subsequent stages. After all, we didn’t initially have storage space permissions either."

Wang Jin clapped his hands and said, "I knew it! How could such a high-tech item lack such a basic function like instant communication? Turns out it’s just not available to us yet."

"If only we could take one back for the scientists to study, maybe we could replicate such treasures soon," Qin Chao said, looking at the Star Chart on his wrist, feeling a bit sentimental.

The group chatted for a while, then finished breakfast.

After breakfast, Lu Ke and Qin Fan rode away from the camp on their mounts to search for level 3 fierce beasts in other areas.

The remaining people stayed in the camp to continue training.

Their only goal was to advance to a level 4 mage.

By comparison, Xu Yi’s camp was much calmer.

Meanwhile, Li Kang, Ivica, and Jerry’s camp was relocating.

Li Kang’s team already had 10 level 3 mages; Jerry’s had 8, and Ivica’s had 7. They now had the strength to enter the level 3 fierce beasts’ territory.

They knew that only by entering the level 3 fierce beasts’ territory could everyone quickly reach level 3 mage.

"Young Master, are we really going to move closer to Xu Yi’s position?"

A member of Li Kang’s team cautiously asked, as Xu Yi’s team didn’t like associating with them. If they angered Xu Yi’s team, things might not go well.

Li Kang glanced at the Star Chart and then said solemnly, "If we don’t want to fall too far behind, we must move towards their camp. I’ve observed they’ve stayed in that location for many days. Either it’s a level 4 fierce beast activity area, or it’s a safe place close to level 4 fierce beast activity. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have stayed so long."

"Back then, I exchanged a Star Chart for a crippled level 3 fierce beast. Do you really think I was only interested in the beast?"

Li Kang was after the coordinates, Xu Yi’s team’s coordinates.

After all, the Star Chart had a team function; Star Charts within the same 6-person group could share locations.

This way, he could track the movements of Xu Yi’s team, which was crucial intelligence.

He knew Xu Yi was certainly aware of this.

Yet, Xu Yi didn’t reject the exchange. So, he could openly use this function to track Xu Yi’s team’s movements.

"But what if Xu Yi’s team gets angry and acts against us?" Li Kang’s deputy still felt uneasy and asked again.

Li Kang chuckled upon hearing this and said, "We’re not surrounding their camp like last time, so there’s no reason for him to be upset. We’re all humans; it’s unlikely he would chase us away. About Xu Yi, I have some understanding; as long as you don’t flaunt under his nose, he won’t bother you. Visiting him is like bringing business to his door; he would be thrilled."

"Furthermore, our three camps combined have more than 25 level 3 mages. How could we not handle a team of 12? There’s no way many of their members have advanced to level 4 yet, right?"

But Li Kang didn’t know there were already two level 4 mages in Xu Yi’s team.

However, Li Kang was right in one aspect; if Li Kang brought business, Xu Yi would be quite willing.

After all, Xu Yi was planning to go back on the 199th or the 198th day.

The more Star Charts he could acquire, the more resources he could obtain. Naturally, he hoped to make more transactions with Li Kang’s team and acquire more Star Charts.

Currently, Xu Yi’s team only had 18 Star Charts, while Xu Yi’s goal was at least 24.

Because Li Kang’s team was located too far from Xu Yi’s camp, it would take at least two to three days to reach Xu Yi’s camp vicinity.

So, they weren’t in a hurry; they advanced at a normal pace.

Li Kang’s camp was at the forefront, followed by Ivica’s second camp, and finally Jerry’s third camp.

Initially, when Li Kang approached Ivica and Jerry to suggest moving into the level 3 fierce beasts’ territory, Ivica and Jerry didn’t agree immediately.

They were hesitant about the level 3 fierce beasts’ territory because they had lost too many members initially upon entering. They felt it would be more prudent to wait until most of their team reached level 3 mage before moving in.

Such a decision was undoubtedly the safest.

Until Li Kang presented his Star Chart and informed them of Xu Yi’s position. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Upon seeing this, Ivica and Jerry agreed without hesitation.

Xu Yi was too far ahead, in such a deep position, possibly even past rushing to level 4 mage. Meanwhile, they hadn’t yet achieved a full team of level 3 mages.

If this distance persisted, they would be left far behind and might miss out on the 500-day challenge. Jerry, especially, knew very well what benefits awaited after completing the 500-day challenge.

Such a benefit, how could they let Xu Yi’s team enjoy it alone?
