Chapter 35: Your rate of improvement, even novels wouldn't dare write it like this!

"Two brothers, there's no need for that..."

However, upon hearing this, Ye Bai immediately revealed a strange expression and rejected their proposal.

"Hey, little brother, you don't need to be embarrassed.

Da Huang and I just have itchy hands, and since we took a liking to you, we'll just bring you along while we're at it!"

Lao Chen, thinking Ye Bai didn't want to owe a favor, added.

"If you really want to thank us, just treat us to a meal tomorrow night!"

"A meal is no problem, I can arrange that later." Ye Bai's expression, however, grew even stranger.

"But there's really no need to take me hunting in the Wilderness tomorrow. To tell you the truth, I just returned from the Wilderness."

He vaguely guessed that the two wanted to help him.

Because he hadn't told the truth yesterday, and because he had returned early today!

The Military Department regularly sweeps the Wilderness for Alien Beasts within the Safe Zone!

As soldiers stationed in Jiangcheng, how could they have gone a long time without killing any Alien Race?

"Little brother, weren't you quite honest yesterday? How come you're spouting nonsense after just one day?

You're only eighteen, how can you come here to lie to us two old comrades?"

Lao Huang was dissatisfied:

"You say you just returned from the Wilderness? Why don't you say you hunted several Second Grade Alien Race today?"

Beside him, Lao Chen nodded repeatedly.

Ye Bai became even more certain that the two had misunderstood him because of what happened yesterday!

"Two brothers, see for yourselves..."

Fortunately, he hadn't poked a Succubus nest today.

He took off the Specialized Backpack on his back.

"Inside here, I have ten edible portions of Second Grade Alien Beast.

Among them, six are Second Grade Initial Stage, three are Middle Grade, and one is Late Stage..."

Ten pieces of loot!

The upgraded Specialized Backpack he had spent a large sum of money to buy was stuffed to the brim!

Ye Bai had even discarded two portions of Second Grade Initial Stage Alien Beast meat and several portions of First Grade Alien Beast meat!

This was the real reason Ye Bai had returned early, unlike the previous two days!

It was stuffed full, truly about to overflow!

Once an Alien Beast reaches the Second Grade, the price of its edible parts skyrockets.

A single portion could sell for at least four thousand.

Ye Bai felt truly pained about what he had discarded.

He figured that in half an hour, it would be hard to encounter new Alien Beasts.

So he simply returned, thinking he would pick carefully today and exchange for a sufficiently large Specialized Backpack!

"D-damn..."

Lao Huang and Lao Chen looked at the opened backpack, dumbfounded.

No, why was this different from what they had imagined?

Wasn't Ye Bai someone who had just entered the Second Grade, the type who wouldn't dare go into the Wilderness, and who had returned empty-handed yesterday?!

"Two brothers, to tell you the truth, I wasn't empty-handed yesterday afternoon either...

I accidentally poked a Succubus nest and only killed Succubus, so the backpack was empty..."

"Then Brother Huang comforted me at the time, and I didn't want to make Brother Huang feel awkward, so I didn't tell the truth..."

Ye Bai continued.

"Is it possible that now that you've said it all at once, I feel even more like a fool?" Lao Huang was stunned.

"I'm sorry, I promise it won't happen again!" Ye Bai apologized.

"Don't say that, little brother, you're awesome! I'm too happy to be upset!"

Lao Huang jumped, hurriedly dodging.

That the kid he had always favored was a genius beyond imagination was a huge blessing!

Blame Ye Bai for not telling him in advance? That would be brain-dead!

"But you must treat us to that meal tonight!

We even thought you had been discouraged and were prepared to risk our lives to accompany you into the Wilderness!"

Ye Bai knew the real reason they wanted to take him along and felt even more embarrassed, so he hurriedly agreed.

They agreed to meet at a budget restaurant near the Treasure Pavilion after the two finished their shift at six o'clock.

Ye Bai then left the city gate, and after triggering a bug while traveling, he arrived at the Treasure Pavilion again.

"Good, good heavens..."

"Ye Bai, ten portions of Second Grade Alien Beast meat, and there's even Second Grade Late Stage meat inside? Tell me quickly, I haven't woken up yet!!"

Inside the Treasure Pavilion, it was Wang Xiaopang tending the shop this time.

Seeing Ye Bai's loot, his shock was no less than that of Lao Huang and Lao Chen!

He had thought it was already heaven-defying for Ye Bai to reach First Grade Late Stage in such a short time.

He never expected that the person he had always felt sorry for could already hunt Second Grade Late Stage Alien Beasts!

"Ye Bai, tell me honestly, are you already Second Grade Late Stage?!" He also asked the key question.

Unlike Lao Huang and Lao Chen, who heard Ye Bai's explanation that he had killed Second Grade Succubus yesterday and mistakenly thought Ye Bai had been hiding his strength and was actually already Second Grade Late Stage.

Wang Xiaopang clearly remembered that when Ye Bai arrived on the first day, he said he was only First Grade Late Stage!

It had only been two days!

Even novels wouldn't dare to write it like this!

"No, I am only Second-Grade Mid Stage."

"The Second Grade Late Stage one I encountered was in a heavily injured state," Ye Bai said.

It is best to hold back a little in all things.

When he was Second Grade Late Stage, he said he was First Grade Late Stage; now that his entire body is 30% tempered, plus his Explosive Blood Combat Method is at Major Achievement and his Blood Burning Secret Art is at Proficiency, saying he is Second-Grade Mid Stage isn't excessive, right?

"Se, Second-Grade Mid Stage..."

Wang Xiaopang learned of Ye Bai's 'true strength,' yet he was still numb.

You promised to reach Second Grade in half a month, yet you increased from 1000 Qi and Blood to 3000+ in just two days?!

"Ye Bai, I don't care...

I can't hold it in anymore. Do you know how miserable it is that classmates play games with me every day and I have to endure not telling them about your situation?"

"You must cover dinner tonight!!"

Wang Xiaopang really wanted to tell everyone else who used to look down on Ye Bai about Ye Bai's heaven-defying nature.

Yet, even when Li Qingqing came to ask, he didn't reveal the matter of Ye Bai's talent mutation!

"I'm going to treat two brothers from the Military Department to dinner tonight. They are both quite decent people; why don't we go together?"

"Hm? People from the Military Department? No, no, treat me to dinner tomorrow instead!"

Ye Bai intended to introduce Wang Xiaopang to Lao Huang and the other, but Wang Xiaopang seemed to not want to deal with the Military Department and decisively refused.

Next was the harvest session for today!

Out of ten portions of spoils, Wang Xiaopang offered a unit price of 4100 for the Second Grade Initial Stage Exotic Beast Meat.

4500 for the Second-Grade Mid Stage.

4900 for the Second Grade Late Stage.

After taxes were paid, Ye Bai received a total of Great Xia Currency!

The video he uploaded after entering the city had also just passed review.

"Ding, Alipay account received 【amount】 yuan, balance 【amount】 yuan~"

The kill rewards for Second Grade Alien Beasts outside the city were, of course, higher than those for a Second Grade Succubus.

Eight Second Grade Initial Stage Alien Beasts gave Ye Bai 【amount】 Great Xia Currency in rewards!

Three Second-Grade Mid Stage Alien Beasts, sixty-nine thousand!

One Second Grade Late Stage, thirty-five thousand!

Plus the kill rewards for a few First Grade Alien Beasts.

Ye Bai's balance had already surpassed 720,000 Great Xia Currency!
