Chapter 1165: Confused Ye Lan! Void Shadow Wolf!

"A total of 1,078 new recruits are participating in this evaluation; activate the holographic projection."

After the last recruit entered the beast trial zone, Hei Yu's holographic projection appeared on the square.

With a gentle wave of her jade hand, 1,078 holographic screens instantly materialized in midair.

From No. 1 to No. 1,078, each screen corresponded to one new recruit who had entered the trial zone.

"What number is Raymon?"

"He's No. 604. I've already found him."

"I heard the Goliath Clan members naturally master profound domains from childhood— I wonder if it's true."

"It's true. I heard his Flame Domain has already reached the twelfth level!"

"Whoa, a Starlight Stage Two cultivator with a twelfth-level domain? That's terrifying?!"

"......"

On the spectator seats near the square, many Sacred Site members had already arrived.

As Raymon, the one who had attracted the attention of Immortal Gods, he was naturally the most watched.

"Raymon wields the Fire Domain; don't fight over him—I claim him."

In the VIP room atop the building beside the square, six Immortal Gods had gathered.

One of them, a man with a flame mark on his forehead and an unmistakably volatile temper, spoke first.

His name was Kaiyi, an Immortal Stage Four God.

"Heh, why should we listen to you?"

Blacklight scoffed, clad in pitch-black battle armor.

All were Immortal Gods; unless one possessed overwhelming power, none would submit to another.

"Because I've gained the recognition of the Fire Primordial Law!"

Kaiyi glared, "Among you, who has deeper insight into the Fire Primordial Law than I do? Who else here can teach him?"

"So what?"

Blacklight remained dismissive. "Raymon is only Starlight Stage Two; his understanding of the Flame Domain is shallow."

"Switching to another domain would take little time. Any one of us here could teach him."

"That's true."

A beautiful woman nodded slightly.

Her name was Niki, an Immortal Stage Three God who wields the Metal and Light Laws.

She has also gained the recognition of the Light Primordial Law and is Ye Lan's mentor.

At this moment, the tall Ye Lan stood respectfully beside her.

Beside the other Immortal Gods stood their respective students.

But for a scene of this level, they had no right to speak.

Most were merely here to observe alongside their mentors.

"What's the point of arguing now?"

"When Raymon arrives, won't everyone have to compete for him anyway?"

Blacklight sneered, then fell silent.

Kaiyi, who had spoken earlier, also fell silent.

The other's words were indeed true.

Thus,

The six Immortal Gods ceased speaking and turned their gazes to Screen No. 604.

Raymon was indeed a Goliath, but they still needed to see his performance in the trial.

His performance in the trial zone would determine how much resource each would offer—and how fiercely they would compete.

"Huh? That's...?"

There were 1,078 screens in total, each corresponding to one of the 1,078 new recruits.

Ordinary people could not possibly track them all, but for Star-level experts, monitoring over a thousand individuals at once was no issue.

At this moment, Ye Lan, standing elegantly beside Niki, noticed Xu Jingming on Screen No. 534.

Seeing the familiar figure on the screen, she felt a pang of confusion.

Logically, those pampered rich kids who entered the Sacred Site through backdoor connections shouldn't even take this certification exam.

After all, this exam cannot be faked—any attempt would be exposed immediately.

With this doubt in mind, Ye Lan watched the holographic projection of Raymon

while also diverting some attention to Screen No. 534...

"Xu Jingming, how about we team up?"

"No, we go our separate ways."

"Haha, fine, I'll go first—see you after the exam."

"......"

After entering the beast trial zone, Ke Lan flew off swiftly in another direction.

Xu Jingming walked deeper into the trial zone.

"According to Eva's data, the deeper you go, the more high-tier beasts there are."

"To showcase my strength and attract the attention of Immortal Gods, I must find a suitable prey as soon as possible."

Xu Jingming had already unfurled his Thunder Dragon Wings.

Black lightning coiled around his body as he sped through the high skies.

Although the gravity of Noah's Sanctuary was more than ten times that of Blue Star,

it did not have much impact on his flight speed. After spreading his Thunder Dragon Wings,

his flight speed could reach an astonishing 40 times the speed of sound.

Among Star Radiance Tier 2 ability users, this was already considered quite impressive.

After flying for roughly three minutes, Xu Jingming's figure abruptly halted.

"What's wrong?" Eva's voice rang out in his mind.

"There's something nearby." Xu Jingming's gaze swept his surroundings like a bolt of lightning.

"Huh? But my life detector has been on the whole time, and it hasn't detected any life signatures." Eva said, puzzled.

"The life detector isn't necessarily accurate."

Xu Jingming gripped an E1-grade spear tightly in his right hand, and his Thunder Domain exploded outward!

Boom boom boom——!!

Within a radius of several dozen kilometers, the area was instantly covered by SSS-grade Doushen Shenlei.

At the same time, a hint of purple surfaced deep in his eyes—the Purple Micro Pupils, which had been maxed out, were already activated!

Then, he saw that roughly several dozen kilometers ahead,

a giant wolf roughly seven or eight meters long, pitch-black all over, was hidden within the void.

Its posture was lithe, its limbs long and slender, its sharp claws glinting coldly in the sunlight.

Most eye-catching were its eyes, like two deep, dark black holes, soul-stealing.

"Void Shadow Wolf!" Xu Jingming's pupils contracted, and he immediately recognized the origin of this demon beast.

The Void Shadow Wolf was a rare spatial-type demon beast in the universe; upon reaching adulthood, its strength was generally around Star Radiance Tier 5.

It excelled at stealth and ambush, the nightmare of many ability users.

This Void Shadow Wolf had clearly already reached adulthood.

Its aura had reached the level of Star Radiance Tier 5, three tiers higher than Xu Jingming.

Seemingly aware that it had been spotted, it let out a low growl, and its lithe form suddenly flashed out from the void.

In the next instant, it had already flashed like a phantom to appear before Xu Jingming, its sharp claws tearing through space, going straight for his throat!

Its speed was so fast it was almost impossible to dodge!

But Xu Jingming didn't need to dodge.

"Seeking death!"

He let out a cold shout, instantly activating Lei Shen form, and the third layer of his Destruction Domain erupted at full power!

The spear roared like a black dragon, carrying the power of destruction as it thrust out ferociously!

Clang——!

The spear tip collided with the wolf's claw, erupting into a piercing clash of metal.

Yet the wolf's claw, hard as D7-grade alloy, was instantly annihilated beneath the spear tip suffused with the Destruction Domain.

"Roar——!" The Shadow Wolf howled in pain, wanting to pull back and retreat, but it was already too late.

Xu Jingming flicked his wrist, and the spear flashed like lightning, instantly piercing through the Shadow Wolf's skull!

Puchi!

The Doushen Shenlei erupted, the Shadow Wolf's head instantly disintegrated, and its massive body crashed down.

Puchi——!!

Its entire head was annihilated in an instant.

At the same time, a pleasant system notification chimed in Xu Jingming's mind.

"Ding, killed one Star Radiance Tier 5 Void Shadow Wolf, Source Points +40!"

"As expected, killing demon race members also grants rewards!"

Xu Jingming rejoiced in his heart, but what followed was confusion.

Isn't the reward for killing demon race members Ability Points?

What exactly are these Source Points?

Moreover, only 40 Source Points—isn't that a bit too few?
