Chapter 29

C29 – Level Up

“The brewing conflict between the Mo family and the Evolver Alliance appears to be intensifying. Mo Qitian’s strength surpasses that of Zhang Qibing, raising concerns about the safety of the Evolver Alliance this time around.”

“City Lord Jin, do you intend to intervene in this situation?”

In the Registration Hall, three middle-aged men stood among the onlookers, closely monitoring the unfolding events. These three individuals happened to be the remaining Level 3 Evolver warriors.

Among them were the esteemed City Lord of Jinling City, the Master of the Black Horse Martial House, and the Dean of Dongfang Academy.

Much like Zhang Qibing, these three individuals were also Level 3 Evolvers at the Beginner Level, and they had all experienced suppression at the hands of Mo Qitian and the Mo family.

“Even if we were to lend our assistance, there’s no guarantee of any tangible gains. Perhaps it’s wiser to adopt a ‘wait and see’ approach for now.”

City Lord Jin shook his head, explaining that Zhang Qibing’s motivation for challenging the Mo family was to secure Loong Chen’s support. Since their involvement wouldn’t yield any benefits, they had no inclination to meddle in this affair.

“Zhang Qibing, if you insist on courting death, I shall regrettably oblige and eliminate both you and your alliance!”

“Everyone, attack!”

Under Mo Qitian’s orders, the Mo family’s bodyguards began to advance, and Zhang Qibing readied himself for action.

However, at that precise moment, Loong Chen unexpectedly intervened.

“Chief Zhang, I must express my gratitude for your assistance, but the Mo family’s matters are of no concern to me.”

“Please, refrain from acting impulsively. I am willing to safeguard you, even if it means risking my life.”

Zhang Qibing hastily declared, even going as far as contemplating abandoning the alliance with the Mo family for the sake of Loong Chen.

Loong Chen sensed Zhang Qibing’s attempt to win him over but was reluctant to owe anyone favors. Furthermore, his earlier statement had been made without impulsiveness.

While Mo Qitian was indeed a Level 3 Mid Rank Evolver, he still possessed hidden aces.

Loong Chen decided not to further persuade Zhang Qibing. Instead, he moved toward Mo Qitian, addressing him with a stern tone. “If you intend to kill me, now is your chance.”

“Since you’re so eager for death, I shall grant your wish!”

Mo Qitian burst into laughter. He had no intention of easily initiating a conflict with Zhang Qibing, and Loong Chen’s arrival seeking his own demise aligned perfectly with his desires.

As Mo Qitian advanced toward him, Loong Chen’s heart echoed with a shout.

“System, I want to upgrade my skills!”

“You have used 1,600 empirical value, Saber Proficiency has broken through to Master level Saber technique.”

“You have used 2,000 empirical value, Cat Shadow Step has broken through to level 4.”

“You have used 4,000 empirical value, Cat Shadow Step has broken through to level 5.”

“Your Cat Shadow Step has reached the maximum level, and I can’t break through to the next level.”

“If that’s all you’ve got, then you won’t be able to vanquish me.”

Loong Chen’s expression dripped with contempt.

“I intend to impart a lesson to you.”

Mo Qitian’s roar pierced the heavens, emanating a dreadful aura that even caused the marble beneath his feet to buckle.

This potent aura sent shivers down Zhang Qibing’s spine.

“Is this the unadulterated might of a Level 3 Mid Rank Evolver? He’s astonishingly powerful!”

However, Loong Chen stood firm in his original position, unwavering in the face of Mo Qitian’s pressure, his countenance betraying nothing but tranquility.

However, an unusual energy fluctuation emanated from his body and was absorbed by the earth.

Immediately, the entire Registration Hall quivered violently, as though a massive earthquake was imminent.

Numerous marble fragments hovered in the air.

“Could this possibly signify a domain-level extraordinary talent?”

Zhang Qibing’s eyes betrayed astonishment, and Mo Qitian, City Lord Jin, and their companions were equally stunned.

The spectacle before them brought to mind the notion of a domain-level extraordinary talent.

When someone’s extraordinary talent reached a certain zenith, they could grasp an immensely potent and enigmatic ability, like a domain power.

A fire extraordinary talent could manifest as a fire domain, and a water extraordinary talent could manifest as a water domain...

Presently, Loong Chen was exhibiting the extraordinary talent of Earth Domain!

Inside the domain, the caster’s prowess could be significantly bolstered, while the adversary would be considerably hampered.

However, what confounded them was that Loong Chen was only at Level 3. How could he have possibly acquired a domain-level capability?

Many Level 4, Level 5 Evolvers, and even Grandmaster warriors couldn’t fathom the domain ability!

“Maybe he can genuinely overcome Mo Qitian.”

This thought crossed Zhang Qibing’s mind.

The domain ability held immense power.

“This can’t be! It’s absolutely inconceivable!”

Mo Qitian’s countenance was contorted in rage. He couldn’t accept that Loong Chen possessed such strength.

“This must be an illusion. I’ll eliminate you!”

Mo Qitian bellowed and charged ferociously at Loong Chen.

He exerted every ounce of his strength!
