The man who was carrying the girl turned his head around and despair could be seen in his eyes. Joey hit his head, blood spilled everywhere as his head exploded.
The woman was instantly frozen by him at the same time as fell and rolled on the ground.
Joey took the Space Rings from their fingers and swiftly searched their bodies. He found a few small items and kept them in his pockets before raising his head and looking at Garen who was quickly approaching him.

You’re too late,
he smirked.
Garen rushed towards the corpses and his face turned gloomy. He had suffered some injuries while pursuing them and didn’t expect Joey to obtain all the good items. It was partially his fault for forgetting to scan his surroundings for any Energy Machinist or else he wouldn’t have let his opponent gain all the loots.

Fine!
Garen stared at Joey coldly, who knew that Garen needed resources urgently and yet he still took it away from him. Garen’s eyes were filled with a murderous attempt.
He had always been the one who was lawless and rules were nothing but restraint. Whether to abide by these rules or not depended on whether he was strong enough or not.

What? Are you going to kill me?
Joey noticed Garen’s gaze and started smirking. He was never afraid of killing anyone.
Are you going to blame your incompetence on me?

Garen scoffed as he turned around and left. He was close to Joey previously because Yiling was even more annoying than him. Frankly speaking, they were just partners for profits. He would hold onto this grudge and make him pay back in the future.
Suddenly, a sharp whistle could be heard behind them. It was Yiling’s signal.
Garen’s eyes gave off a cold vibe as he didn’t want to move with them any longer. His experience wasn’t as rich as them and he wasn’t sure if he would be set up by them. Hence, he rather to move alone.
Determined to do what he wanted to do, he took out a small item from his pocket and crushed it. It was the communication and locator Yiling gave him.
Garen then disappeared into the woods.
At the scene, Joey was the only one left as he crouched down and continued fumbling around the bodies for more resources.
He smiled happily after confirming Garen left the scene.

Hehe. It’s been a while since I’ve looted from such a wealthy person. With these resources, I can again move to the Grade Ten Level Five Cold Scarlet Snow Technique!

Joey and Yiling wouldn’t have cooperated with Garen if not for his average strength and the special treatment towards the newcomer. He thought that he could cooperate with Garen for a while more even after obtaining such a wealthy loot. However, he didn’t expect the final battle was just around the corner. Garen was extremely lucky that he had encountered two incredibly wealthy and injured enemies. He couldn’t help himself but to take it away from him.

Gone already?
He looked at where Garen was standing before.
How stupid of him to move around alone without any experience. He might just die from this action. Same goes for that woman Yiling as well. It would be an extreme advantage if she were able to stall Beast. Even if the powerhouses from the Dragon Eye Sect are all here, we should be fine as long as Lord March is around. We will definitely be able to enter the ranking list when the Spirit Mothership descended. How are you going to enter when you leave now!

Even if Garen left now, the newcomer special treatment was still applicable to his team so he wasn’t affected at all.

The Dragon Eye Sect and the Scarlet Snow Sect were fighting with all their forces in the public area. Beast, who was in the top twenty from the Dragon Eye Sect was retreating due to his heavy injury while Nora was pushed back by March. The rest of the Middle and Lower Tier Energy Machinist had perished. The Dragon Eye Sect was seriously impacted as they had lost the majority of their forces in this qualifier match.
The news spread across the whole region, even to a cave deep within the forest.
A few youngsters dressed in black shirts were crouching beside the bonfire as they whispered among each other. One of the tall youngsters had his eyes behind his back as he stood at the entrance of the cave looking out at the herd of birds quietly.
These men’s collar had a silver owl emblem embedded on it.

Nora of the Dragon Eye Sect has sent us a message. He wants to join forces with us. What should we do brother Wade?
A black-shirted woman walked out from the cave and asked the youngster.

Nora? He’s ranked third in the Dragon Eye Sect. March is also ranked third in the Scarlet Snow Sect. He still hasn’t improved all these years and the Scarlet Snow Sect seems to be very strong this time around,
the youngster turned his head around and one could see that he had two diamond shaped silver metal on his cheeks, giving off a strange and mysterious vibe.

The Scarlet Snow and Dragon Eye have been fighting for thousands of years and we the Nine Xiao Sect has no obligation to join in this mess. We should be fine as long as we remain neutral. Nothing else is more important than to be enlisted by the Spirit Mothership.


Wade is right. These two sects are wasting the numbers in the enlistment from the Spirit Mothership during this major war,
the other muscular man laughed.

Although Nora is weaker, he is very intellectual and isn’t that dumb. I fear that the Dragon Eye Sect has obtained some treasure and is found out by the Scarlet Snow Sect, causing them to fight against each other,
the black-shirted woman said softly as she shook her head.
Although the Dragon Eye Sect isn’t as united as us Nine Xiao, they are still much better than the Scarlet Snow. Within the three major sects in the Northern Yu Province, The Scarlet Snow Sect is the craziest and even their internal competition is insane as there is a huge amount of within them during their annual internal sparring. They are definitely at the top in terms of cruelty.


What should we do then? The Dragon Eye Sect is currently at a serious loss as most of their newcomers are already dead excluding their powerhouses. Should we…
The thin man started laughing in an evil manner.

There’s no need for that. Let them fight it out. Our objective is to be acknowledged by Spirit Card from the Mothership. As long as we are acknowledged, we just have to train ourselves for the next fifteen years and we’re guaranteed to be able to achieve Resonance Level. We should try and ignore these battles at the moment,
Wade said coldly.

Yes brother,
the crowd agreed.

Garen was moving swiftly inside the forest. It had been five days since the major battle between the Dragon Eye Sect and Scarlet Snow Sect. He kept loitering around the area hoping to find some Energy Machinist to kill. Unfortunately, other than encountering a small group of four, the rest were at least middle-sized teams of at least ten people. Among these people, there were at least one Level Three and Level Four Energy Machinists. They’re considered a formidable force considering they have the number and experience.
Garen hadn’t attacked anyone as he knew that he might not be able to win against a few Low-Level Energy Machinists. Afterall, he had to use all of his might just to fight against a Level Four Energy Machinist.
The people from the Dragon Eye Sect seemed to have suffered a few ambushes as each and every one of them were on high alert. He wasn’t able to ambush them at all.
Garen’s ambush capability wasn’t that great and considered normal to an Energy Machinist. They had too many techniques in surveying their surrounding that Garen had never seen before. However, his ambushing capability was considered incredible for a normal commoner.
He had failed numerous attempt in ambushing others and in fact he was almost ambushed back instead. Garen had given up the idea of hunting alone and decided to hide in a path while waiting for the opportunity to attack others.
With him as the epicenter, he had placed countless of miniaturized eavesdropper a few kilometers away from him. After covering these items with his Willpower, they wouldn’t be detected by the electrical instrument easily.
However, as waves of Energy Machinists passed by, most of his eavesdropper were destroyed. There were only a few left that survived as the Energy Machinists were too ignorant to detect them.
Garen squatted on a tree branch as he quietly adjusted the earphone’s frequency to each of the eavesdropper frequency.
Soon he overheard a small team’s conversation which caught his attention.

…Where did they go?


The Mothership’s location. He wanted us to hide as much as possible and not make any rash moves.


We have big sister with us. As long as we follow Lord Nora, we should be fine. I wonder how much resources can Nora get hold of.


The three major sects have teamed up so let’s not overthink it. It’s considered a good outcome if we can secure half of it. The Spirit Mothership doesn’t care who you are. If it isn’t for the elders from the three major sects to reach a truce, we are considered lucky to come out alive, even without the resources.


How savage is this weird race?
Another tender voice appeared.

There’s nothing we can do about it. They’re merchants who are able to move all the resources and not someone we local sects can deal with. We can only comply with their requirement and do nothing about it,
the former voice said helplessly.
The team left the area as he heard thus far.

The Spirit Mothership?
Garen frowned. He had heard of this organization where it was created by a minority species which were not human. They had a huge ship which they used to test the strength of the disciples from all sects in return for resources.
They had always been friendly towards the humans and would greatly nurture the most talented people. They had a very long history and were very sociable. Hence, a lot of powerful humans were blessed by them and were even protected by them.
These species were very business minded, had a great eye for people and were very good at gathering people through networking as well. In addition to that, their origin was still a mystery.
Garen didn’t expect the Spirit Mothership to land at this moment. No wonder the three major sects from the Northern Yu Province would organize a qualifier match at this period of time. It was just for this reason as well. The ranking list given by the Spirit Mothership would definitely be fair and the sects would use the Spirit Mothership to discover any hidden talents from their own sect as well. This might be the best plan the three major sects had come up with.
Garen instantly connected all the dots but he didn’t even hear of such a news at all. The Spirit Mothership only stopped for a moment and the Energy Machinist who would first receive such intel would definitely be at least a Level Four. It would be natural for Bainster and his other intel collector to not receive such a news.
However, Yiling and Joey definitely knew about it and they didn’t even bother telling him at all. It was obvious that they had no plan on working alongside with him at all. These two had incredible strength and in addition to that, the Scarlet Snow Sect’s members were all extremely cruel. The sect itself was very similar to Blackboard Region as they would use all sorts of techniques to compete with each other.
Garen understood their action and would find it weird if they told him instead. If not for the newcomer special treatment, they wouldn’t even have brought him along. Afterall, Garen was slightly weaker than them.
Garen felt that he had about seventy percent winning rate against Joey.
He couldn’t find a suitable target in the wild.

Looks like I have no choice but to go have a look at the Spirit Mothership,
Garen shivered as it was a place for one to exchange quality for resources. Rumor had it that half of the resources obtained would be given to the invigilators. However, even so it would be more than enough for everyone to breakthrough. This region was extremely fair to every Energy Machinist. As long as one had enough quality and potential, they would be invested by the Spirit Mothership.
If Garen wanted to stabilize himself in this world and even obtain Level Five resources in this world quickly, this might be the only place for him to achieve it.
