~6 min read 1,068 words

"By the way, Princess Silara of Westland came today."

"She wants to join our Elite Training Camp—waiting for your approval."

Ling Shuang smiled.

"Oh? She's already passed our admission certification?" Xu Jingming asked curiously.

"Yes, she's a third-rank ability user and scored nearly perfect on the test—I was there in person."

Xia Lan nodded, then asked with a hint of curiosity:

"Ling teacher, you and Jingming know Silara?"

Thinking of the outrageous, eye-popping scene at the Hiton Hotel last night, Ling Shuang's expression grew uneasy, her legs subtly closing together.

Xu Jingming gave a brief explanation: "I went on a mission with Ling teacher last night—that's how I met Silara."

No, it wasn't really meeting her.

It was outright buying her.

Even her family heirloom bracelet is still in my possession.

"I see." Xia Lan nodded and did not press further.

With Xu Jingming's current strength, he could indeed handle tasks for Ling teacher.

"By the way, many trainees in the Elite Training Camp are waiting for you, General Coach, to give them lessons."

Xia Lan chuckled lightly.

Over a month has passed; she's nearly fully integrated into this training camp.

"Lessons? They'll be disappointed—I don't have the time."

Xu Jingming shrugged indifferently.

Logically, gaining the title of General Coach meant fulfilling its duties.

But his original purpose for coming to Dayangzhou was to hunt ferocious beasts.

If he managed the camp like Wang Chun does, when would he have time to harvest ability points?

"I'll tell the director—you focus on your own plan."

Ling Shuang chimed in supportively.

Clearly, she didn't want the General Coach position to distract Xu Jingming too much.

"Understood!" Xu Jingming grinned.

Sure enough, Ling teacher understands me.

"Alright, train on your own—I'm heading back to Thunder Martial Hall."

After eating a few pieces of fruit from the platter, Ling Shuang didn't linger and stood to leave.

From behind, her waist looked slender enough to be clasped in one hand.

Though her hip-hugging skirt wasn't as tight as combat armor, it still accentuated the round, firm curve of her hips.

Together, they created a waist-to-hip ratio bordering on perfection.

It stirred a sudden heat in Xu Jingming's chest.

"The side effects of the Divine Thunder Indestructible Body are emerging." Xu Jingming frowned.

Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chu weren't around, and last night's experience had been intensely stimulating—filled entirely with mosaic-covered scenes.

Xu Jingming could clearly feel a rising desire within him.

"The blood of dragon-class ferocious beasts is indeed powerful, but the side effects are troublesome."

After telling Xia Lan, Xu Jingming walked straight upstairs.

First, he took a cold shower, then pulled out the Melted Chaos Black Obsidian Spear and began practicing spear techniques.

With the two women gone, he had no choice but to vent his excessive blood and energy this way.

Surprisingly, after completing this entire routine, the heat in Xu Jingming's chest dissipated by more than half...

Xu Jingming had assumed the front-line battlefield near Moben wouldn't start for several days.

Yet, at 1 a. . that night, he received Ewa's battle readiness alert.

"S-Class! Battle readiness message sent through the comm group!"

"Report to the front-line battlefield within one hour—combat could erupt at any moment."

In the pitch-black bedroom, Ewa's holographic projection—a green-haired, twin-tailed little girl—suddenly appeared, her voice crisp and clear.

Whoosh—

Xu Jingming shot upright in bed, golden lightning flashing in his eyes.

He leapt from the bed, donning his combat armor as he asked:

"Where is this battlefield?"

"All four directions: east, west, south, north." Ewa waved her hand, and a top-down map of Moben materialized midair.

The megacity of Moben looked like an irregular circle.

Along its perimeter, multiple red zones were marked.

These red zones were where beast hordes had gathered.

Xu Jingming glanced once and confirmed eleven beast hordes.

And indeed, they were spread across all four directions.

"Even just the Degaka Battle Group has over a hundred Master-level squads."

"Six to seven hundred seventh-rank Masters, plus major military legions and guilds."

"Altogether, Master-level fighters exceed a thousand!"

"I thought with so many Masters, Moben should be impregnable."

"Yet one beast horde outbreak has triggered eleven separate fronts!"

Worse, Xu Jingming could only go to one.

The thought of so many ferocious beasts he couldn't personally slay filled him with agonizing regret.

"Ewa, has the comm group indicated which battlefield has the most ferocious beasts?"

Dressed in his SS-class combat armor and strapped into his combat boots, Xu Jingming asked gravely.

"The 3rd Battlefield to the west and the 6th Battlefield to the north have the highest number of beasts." Ewa replied.

"Then we go to the closer one—the 3rd Battlefield!"

Xu Jingming dashed out of the bedroom and yanked away the Thorn Sword Grass still absorbing nutrients.

He leapt from the balcony outside the living room, swift as a hunting leopard.

He concealed himself in the night, altering his appearance.

Only after sprinting over a thousand meters did he unfold his Thunder Dragon Wings and soar into the sky, heading toward the 3rd Battlefield.

Beneath the flames, only the twin wings of fire were visible—no trace of thunder energy could be detected.

Thunder Martial Hall was located in Moben's West District, closest to the western 3rd Battlefield.

Once he unfolded his Thunder Dragon Wings, Xu Jingming reached the city wall in under twenty minutes.

Hum—

The seventy-meter-tall, massive city wall stood like a celestial barrier, its surface glowing with a dull earth-yellow aura.

Even a hundred meters away, Xu Jingming felt a crushing pressure pressing down on him!

His speed slowed abruptly.

Gravity Net!

A ninth-rank earth-element ability cast by an ability user atop the wall.

Any flying ability user or ferocious beast entering the wall's vicinity would experience several times normal gravity.

The closer one got, the heavier the gravity became.

Unless one was a ninth-rank, it was impossible to fly over this wall.

Xu Jingming wouldn't be foolish enough to challenge a ninth-rank ability user's power.

He retracted his wings and landed nearby.

Simultaneously, he took the Degaka Battle Group badge from his space ring and fastened it to his left chest.

Then he walked toward the city wall.

PS: It's probably mid-term or final exam season—best wishes to all students for excellent results. Enjoy a relaxing summer vacation with some light, feel-good novels.

Of course, if you could give the author a small gift, that would be even better~~~
