In the blink of an eye, nearly a month had passed.

This evening, along the coast, four students from Wanzhou Academy were on duty. Suddenly, a strong fluctuation of Star Power came from the distant sea.

The team leader among the four, a young man with brown hair, immediately took out his binoculars and looked into the distance.

“Is it Su Yuan from Demon Capital ‘blowing up fish’ again?” the only girl in the group asked.

The brown-haired young man put away the binoculars. “Yes. With that Frost Giant Dragon’s round of Ice Skills bombarding, there aren’t many sea beasts left.”

A month ago, during the thousand-level sea beast tide, Su Yuan became famous by slashing down 50,000 battle merits.

...

On the entire B-3 island, whether they were academy students or military warriors, no one did not know him. They also knew that both the Hellfire and Frost Giant Dragon were summoned by him.

The Frost Giant Dragon was indispensable for him to gain so many battle merits.

The girl showed an envious expression. “Having such a powerful summoning is just too great. You can earn battle merits just by lying down!”

The brown-haired young man shook his head. “You’re thinking too simply. Summoning Cards aren’t cheap. A Summoning Card that can summon a Frost Giant Dragon isn’t something you can just buy even if you spend thousands of Cent Star Stones.

Besides, leveling up summoning skills isn’t easy. You have to keep using them to improve proficiency.

This requires a lot of spiritual power. You find it stressful to practice breathing spiritual power daily. It would be even harder to train well with a Blue Summon Card.”

The girl asked, “Then how can Su Yuan practice so well? And isn’t he just a sophomore?”

The brown-haired young man didn’t expect the girl to ask such a question. He chuckled and shook his head. “People have different constitutions. What others can do, you and I may not be able to.

Don’t you understand yet? For a Star Card Master, the most important thing is not effort but talent!”

The girl was momentarily stunned, then rubbed her nose and asked, “So, how much battle merit do you think he’s earned by blowing up fish every day now?”

The brown-haired young man thought for a bit. “Probably about 100,000… During the last thousand-level sea beast tide publicized battle merits, he got over 50,000 battle merits.

Although there hasn’t been any big sea beast tide in the past month, he can earn 50,000 battle merits in a month by blowing up fish daily with that Frost Giant Dragon.

After all, as long as it’s within 5 kilometers of the coastline, the sea beasts killed will be counted as battle merits.”

“100,000…”

Hearing this number, the others couldn’t help but click their tongues.

The basic reward for this action was just 5,000 battle merits…

100,000 battle merits were simply unimaginable for most people.

In the sky, the Frost Giant Dragon carried Su Yuan over the heads of the group and flew towards the camp.

Soon, Su Yuan returned to the camp and recalled the dragon.

“Su Yuan, back?” Cheng Mu greeted with a smile.

Now, Cheng Mu was in complete admiration of Su Yuan.

Su Yuan replied, “Yeah, isn’t it almost time for our team to go on duty?”

“To be honest, we are enough for the duty.”

Su Yuan smiled. “Can’t forget the main job.”

Also, the summoning time of the Frost Giant Dragon was almost up.

Cheng Mu nodded. “Alright then, let’s go. The team leader and others have already set off.”

…

Along the western line, four squads of the 11th battalion were dispersed at four locations along the coast, with Su Yuan’s 11-4 squad at the northernmost point of the four teams.

At night, the silver moon hung high, and the night was calm; it was a rare peace.

By a large rock dozens of meters outside the coast, Gong Zhouheng and others were chatting casually.

“I heard that in at most five days, the barrier on our B-3 island will be completed,” Gong Zhouheng said.

Pei Pengfei said joyfully, “Really! That’s great. I have collected over 8,000 battle merits. Plus the task’s basic 5,000 points, I should be able to get a blue Water Element Star Card close to T2.”

Cheng Mu sighed. “I’m far behind. I only have 5,000 battle merits now. It seems I can only get a T3 card…”

“Captain, you should be able to get a T2 Star Card, right?” Pei Pengfei asked Gong Zhouheng.

Gong Zhouheng nodded slightly. “Yes, roughly. I have 15,000. Plus the 5,000 points from completing the task, it’s about right…”

Pei Pengfei clicked his tongue. “You’re indeed the top 100 Silver Extreme master of the grade. That’s twice what I’ve got!”

Cheng Mu also showed envy. “Impressive, Captain!”

Over time, students and the military warriors on the island were getting more familiar with each other.

Now that the barrier’s near completion, students were becoming increasingly curious about the various treasures in the military warehouse, wondering what level of items their current battle merits could exchange for.

Based on some hints from the military warriors, the students had a rough idea.

As mentioned earlier, the 5,000 battle merits given to each person after completing this mission could barely exchange for a Blue Star Card, which was indeed correct.

But this Blue Star Card was just an ordinary Star Card, similar to the Big-eared Steel-toothed Dog’s Steel Teeth Bite among White Cards. Star Card Masters couldn’t even unleash half its power. It’s somewhat lackluster…

Further up, T3-level Star Cards required over 10,000 battle merits;

T2-level Star Cards required over 20,000 battle merits;

T1-level Star Cards required over 50,000 battle merits.

As for Star Devices, they were even more expensive, but if there were leftover battle merits, one could exchange for some refining materials.

The military warehouse indeed had plenty of refining materials.

At present, Gong Zhouheng had accumulated the most battle merits among the Silver Stage warriors. He could possibly obtain a T2-level Blue Star Card.

As for T1-level Star Cards, only Gold-level warriors had a chance of exchanging for those.

Gong Zhouheng smiled. “I think, besides exchanging battle merits for Blue Star Cards, the self-improvement over the past month has been more important.

One month of high-intensity responses to various sea beast tides helped us control our skills, understand battles, and frequently use Star Power…”

A gleam of joy appeared in Gong Zhouheng’s eyes. “I now feel the bottleneck of Silver Extreme, which has troubled me for a long time, is loosening.”

“Really?” Pei Pengfei and Cheng Mu were both surprised.

“Amazing, Captain! Congratulations!” Cheng Mu congratulated, sensing a bit himself, then said happily, “Listening to you, I also feel my Cultivation Realm has advanced!”

“Then I wish you a smooth breakthrough, Captain,” Pei Pengfei also congratulated, though his tone was somewhat insincere.

After all, if Gong Zhouheng broke through, he would be at the Gold Level!

He could also get a T2-level Blue Card to embed directly, truly enviable…

Yet, the most enviable…

Pei Pengfei glanced at Su Yuan, who was meditating not far away, and lowered his voice. “Who knows how much battle merit he has now.”

Cheng Mu’s eyes were also full of curiosity.

If you asked which student’s battle merit everyone wanted to know the most right now, it would be Su Yuan, who with a Silver Body, suppressed Gold-level warriors in various colleges.

Everyone wanted to know how many battle merits he had earned by “blowing up fish” daily.

Gong Zhouheng reminded the two. “Su Yuan doesn’t say. We shouldn’t speculate. The results will be announced after the mission ends in a few days.”

Pei Pengfei and Cheng Mu both nodded and didn’t say any more.

Battle merits were like money earned in group activities. If people were willing to share and discuss, it was fine.

But if not, it was better not to speculate about others behind their backs.

Not far away, Su Yuan slowly opened his eyes. The energy consumed during the day by supporting the team and riding the dragon to blow up fish had mostly recovered.

He activated the Detection Communication Device on his hand with a thought, revealing a battle merit count of “212300”!

“21,000 battle merits!”

“21,000 battle merits should be enough to exchange for a Space Star Card.” Su Yuan pondered.

“5000 battle merits could exchange for a Blue Card, 50,000 battle merits could exchange for a T1-level Blue Card. With 21,000 battle merits, I should have enough to touch the threshold of a Purple Card!

To exchange for a Blue Space Star Card, one card should not be a problem, but I wonder if I can get two…”

As for a Purple Space Star Card, Su Yuan didn’t consider it.

Systems like time, space, and destiny, with special rules, had increasingly extraordinary and unconventional powers later on.

A Purple Space Star Card would significantly affect Radiant Moon and Burning Sun. It wasn’t something easily exchangeable.

“Even if Xia Yue’s side doesn’t yield results, I can get the remaining two skill slots at the Silver Stage completed soon.”

Su Yuan thought it over. The Frost Giant Dragon’s performance when massacring sea beasts exceeded expectations; killing Silver Star Beasts efficiently.

Plus its ability to fly, carrying Su Yuan around the island to hunt nearby sea beasts and quickly respond to missions without delays, greatly sped up the killing efficiency.

After some thinking, Su Yuan collected his thoughts and looked far away.

The silver moonlight fell on the sea surface, calm and unruffled.

Su Yuan gazed at the sea, frowning.

“It feels… too quiet tonight.”

Under normal circumstances, even if there were no small groups of sea beasts, there should still be a few scattered sea beasts passing through the area Su Yuan and his team were responsible for.

Su Yuan stood up from his cultivation after a brief thought, walking to the shore.

“What’s wrong, Su Yuan?”

Seeing Su Yuan stand up, Gong Zhouheng and others followed.

“Something feels wrong; too quiet,” Su Yuan said.

“Oh? Now that you mention it, it is quieter than usual.”

Gong Zhouheng and the others immediately heightened their vigilance, scanning the sea. But after a while, they found nothing.

“It seems… there’s nothing wrong,” Cheng Mu said, puzzled after retracting his gaze.

Pei Pengfei also nodded.

Gong Zhouheng thought for a moment. “Pengfei, go underwater and check.”

Pei Pengfei hesitated. “Captain, there’s really nothing out there…”

The sea water around the island was tinged red, with many sea beast carcasses not washed away by the waves. Dirtying clothes was secondary. If they got a fishy smell, it would be hard to remove…
