Amidst the crowd of people, Mu Tian’s eyes flashed in astonishment at Jian Chen and Tie Ta, and he murmured to himself, “Tie Ta, Changyang Xiang Tian, your reputation is well-deserved. You two are indeed experts that can defeat Saints. I’d love to have a chance to interact with the both of you.”
Although he had had his spotlight taken away by Jian Chen and Tie Ta, Mu Tian did not show a single trace of dissatisfaction. He was still just as indifferent as before, as if this was an insignificant matter that had absolutely no impact on him.
At that moment, Changyang Hu walked up to Jian Chen with a happy expression, and said in a low voice, “Fourth brother, the two of you are really too abnormal. Within 3 days, each of you managed to gain nearly 100 monster cores.” Changyang Hu’s tone barely concealed his happiness, and he looked at Jian Chen proudly.
Jian Chen smiled wordlessly. Suddenly, his gaze shifted as he sensed something. He looked behind him to see a youth with tattered clothes glaring at him with poisonous hatred. The youth’s gaze did not bother to conceal his strong killing intent, and it was so severe that Jian Chen could not help but furrow his brows.
However, when Jian Chen inspected the youth’s appearance a bit more closely, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. The youth was Luo Jian, who had all of his monster cores plundered by Jian Chen. Luo Jian’s monster cores had been entirely stolen from him mercilessly, and he had even been heavily injured. Although it did not greatly affect his movements, since he and his group of companions had completely lost all of their battle spirit, they had been unable to gather the energy to steal others’ monster cores or hunt magical beasts afterwards. Thus, Luo Jian’s group had ended the task with failure.
Jian Chen smiled, his expression showing a hint of disdain. He paid absolutely no mind to Luo Jian. In regards to people like Luo Jian, Jian Chen had met many of them as a wanderer in his previous world. However, very few of them had the ability to really stir up storms.
The second round of monster core evaluations soon started. The students that had reached Saint levels and finished their task walked up to the platform in succession. However, there were two exceptions among them: Jian Chen and Tie Ta, who had not yet reached Saint level, while everyone else had.
