"Soldier No. 3, total考核crystals invested: 1,144, talent rarity: rare, comprehensive evaluation: rare, reward: one copy of inheritance No. 094!"

At this moment, a noticeably higher-pitched mechanical voice rang out from the front of the hall, instantly drawing everyone's gaze.

There, on the circular seat where No. 3 had collected their reward, a young woman was enveloped in a green glow.

Immediately afterward, the holographic projection sphere moved before her and presented her with a space ring.

This scene instantly sparked a wave of exclamations from the onlookers.

"No way! It's an inheritance reward!"

"Inheritance No. 094—that's at least the legacy of an eighth-rank peak Master Zongshi!"

"I'm jealous! I hope I can get an inheritance too when it's my turn."

"......"

Rewards from the No. 9 Civilization Ruins varied widely: cultivation resources, battle armor, and combat technique manuals.

Among them, the best reward was undoubtedly a sequence inheritance!

These inheritances were typically left behind by powerful figures of ancient civilizations, containing not only their famed combat techniques.

Even some weapons and battle armors were sometimes preserved within them.

The masters who left these inheritances were at least eighth-rank upper-level Grand Masters.

Inheritances ranked within the top 100 were left by eighth-rank peak Grand Masters at minimum!

"Huh, that seems to be Senior Sister Shen." Xu Jingming's eyes lit up.

The woman was none other than Shen Dongling from the Metropolis Psychic University.

She had once fought alongside him, possessing the Enhanced-type A-rank psychic ability "Blood Moon Demon Fox."

"If properly utilized, Senior Sister Shen's future will surely soar." Xu Jingming thought silently.

No wonder Vice Principal Ling Shuang said the No. 9 Civilization Ruins concealed great fortune.

Even an ordinary psychic could rise to prominence by obtaining such an inheritance.

Not to mention Shen Dongling was already a prodigy of Metropolis University.

Amidst waves of admiration, Shen Dongling returned joyfully to the Metropolis University team.

Once they realized she was from the Daxia Nation's team, many psychics reluctantly withdrew their gazes.

Had she been a lone wanderer, merely possessing this inheritance alone.

Leaving the ruin space would inevitably have plunged her into a bloody storm.

"Inheritance No. 094—so envious. I don't ask for much; just one elemental weapon would be fine."

Lin Huipoh's envious voice immediately caught Xu Jingming's interest; he asked curiously:

"Are there elemental weapons among the ruins' rewards?"

Since learning about elementalists from the director of Lei Ting Martial Arts Hall,

he had used his S-rank clearance to search the Metropolis University database for extensive knowledge on elementalists.

This included information on elementalists' specialized elemental weapons.

If an elementalist is likened to a mage in an online game, then the elemental weapon is the mage's staff, amplifying the spells they cast.

Of course,

elemental weapons do not resemble actual staffs—their forms are wildly varied.

A necklace, a bracelet, even a ring could be an elemental weapon.

Compared to alloy weapons, elemental weapons are exceedingly rare; even the cheapest one costs hundreds of millions.

"Yes."

Lin Hui nodded, then smiled and asked: "If you're asking this, Su Chen, are you planning to become an elementalist?"

Ordinary psychics don't even know what an elementalist is, let alone elemental weapons.

"Mm." Xu Jingming nodded with a smile.

The power of a psychic ability depends not only on its rank,

but also on two foundational attributes: physical body and spiritual force.

Currently, his physical cultivation is enhanced by Lei Ting Immortal Body, boosting his blood qi; spiritually, he lacks only an elementalist's spirit-refining technique.

Combined, these two could elevate his SS-rank Doushen Shenlei to an unimaginable level!

"Then you'll have to work hard once you enter our training camp—the free spirit-refining techniques offered are only B-rank.

To obtain higher-ranked spirit-refining techniques, you must complete training camp missions.

The A-rank spirit-refining technique I'm currently practicing took me over half a year of missions to earn."

Lin Hui said with a shudder.

It was the memory he least wanted to recall—every day spent either on missions or en route to them.

Yet he bore no resentment.

Spirit-refining techniques are exceedingly rare; many would give anything to learn one.

To acquire one in just half a year was already excellent.

Xu Jingming merely smiled in response, saying nothing.

Sorry,

I have the director's SS-rank spirit-refining technique—I don't need to do any missions...

"By the way, Su Chen, you probably don't have many考核crystals left.

I've got over a thousand—I'll give them all to you. Put them in later; it'll help you get a better reward."

At this moment, Qin Zheng walked up and smiled.

Their team had already divided all the考核crystals—these were squeezed out from other squads of the martial arts hall.

Logically speaking, Xu Jingming hadn't even entered the Prodigy Training Camp yet, so there was no need for him to go that far.

But the other party's talent was extraordinary, so they deserved some preferential treatment.

"No need, I still have plenty of assessment crystals on hand." Xu Jingming shook his head.

"Is that so? Then alright."

Qin Zheng assumed Xu Jingming was being considerate of his pride, so he didn't press the matter.

"He barely has any assessment crystals on him to begin with, and now he won't even take one given for free — isn't that just slapping his face until it's swollen to play the fatty?"

Not far away, Lu Heng of the Fierce Bear Wu Guan muttered to himself at the sight.

If it were him, he would absolutely never refuse just to save face.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth — grab it first and talk later.

After the Demon University team's turn, the members of Lei Ting Wu Guan and Fierce Bear Wu Guan stepped forward one after another to claim their own rewards.

However, the vast majority only received ordinary ratings; only Lin Hui, Xia Lan, and Lu Heng received rare ratings.

They respectively obtained S-grade equipment, combat technique manuals, and cultivation resources.

"Although I didn't get the elemental weapon I wanted, this is still pretty good."

Lin Hui was quite satisfied with the weapon he had obtained.

After all, these items all originated from ancient civilizations, and weapon strength was only one aspect.

The ancient-civilization craftsmanship alone contained within them would prompt weapon masters outside to offer high prices to buy them for study.

"These pills are thousands of years old — can they still be eaten?" Lu Heng expressed doubt about the bottle of S-grade pills he had received.

As for Xia Lan, who had obtained an S-grade combat technique manual, her pretty face was beaming with a radiant smile.

Combat technique manuals wouldn't lose their effectiveness with the passage of time, especially since the one she got was an inherently rare spatial-type S-grade combat technique.

"Even us A-grade ability users can get S-grade rewards — if our SS-grade Xu Jingming were to come over,

he'd probably get a transcendent rating, and the rewards would definitely be even richer.

Too bad he didn't come this time."

Lin Hui felt a bit regretful, while Lu Heng just spread his hands helplessly:

"Can't be helped — what can you do when he's a coward?"

The two chatted back and forth, while Xu Jingming standing beside them watched the scene with great interest.

No matter how hard they racked their brains, they could never imagine that the SS-grade they were talking about was already on site.

"Su Chen, go — it's your turn." Qin Zheng, having finished claiming his rewards, walked up.

"Alright."

Xu Jingming nodded and walked toward the No. 5 testing station that had just been vacated.

"How many assessment crystals do you think Su Chen can pull out?"

The moment Xu Jingming stepped away, Lu Heng nudged Lin Hui beside him.

"Should be at least over a thousand, after all, ferocious beasts might also have assessment crystals hidden inside them.

Last time he even wiped out an ability-user squad from Gaoli Country."

After a brief moment of thought, Lin Hui guessed.

"Over a thousand? You're thinking too highly of him!"

Lu Heng waved his hand. "So many teams entered the Tianyu Dojo this time that even we had to avoid their edge.

Su Chen is only at mid fifth-tier combat power — how could he snatch them away from them?

I estimate it'd be pretty good if he has over eight hundred assessment crystals on him."

As they spoke, Xu Jingming had already arrived at the testing base.

Then the spatial ring's light flickered slightly, and transparent assessment crystals appeared out of thin air, pouring into the base like flowing water.

And the count projected from the base immediately began to soar!

1000!

2000!

5000!

!

In just a few breaths, the number of assessment crystals reached over ten thousand!!

And it kept climbing!

The clattering sound of assessment crystals pouring out immediately drew the attention of other ability users in the hall.

It also stunned Lin Hui and the others who had already been watching Xu Jingming; Lu Heng of Fierce Bear Wu Guan was even more utterly shocked:

"Huh?! Su Chen actually has this many assessment crystals?"
