Treasure Hunt, Treasure Hunt...

The World Championship, a magical competition for the younger generation, utilizes Space Magic arrays to transport participants to designated locations, which gives an idea of how important this competition is.

At this moment, the head referee stepped forward and announced in standard international English: "I will now announce the rules. The 160 students from the 16 countries will enter the Treasure Hunting Space in a randomized order. Each of you will land in a different location, and what you obtain will depend on your own fate."

"However, I must remind you that the location chosen for this competition is itself a dangerous and Demon and Monster Land. You need to be extra careful when searching for the treasures we have placed there. If you encounter any danger, use the Space Scroll that will be distributed to you later!"

"When you realize your lives are in danger, immediately fill the entire scroll with magical energy. The scroll will activate in about 4 seconds, creating a spatial vortex to send you back here. I hope each of you can return safely..."

After the referee finished speaking, the crowd began to whisper among themselves in small groups.

Tang Miao didn't care about this at all.

He'd been to places with harsh environments before, and as for places teeming with Demon Beast? As a Demon Hunter, he wasn't worried at all!

In short, as long as there's profit to be made, nothing else matters!

Tang Miao, who was Space Element mage, didn't feel much when he entered the great formation.

In the blink of an eye, the stadium before him had vanished, the Venice sky was no longer visible, and the sea of spectators was gone.

The hazy, murky sky twisted and contorted strangely, looking like a huge, somber oil painting imprinted overhead, giving it an unreal quality.

The land is rugged and undulating, with towering, inexplicably abrupt mountain peaks, a dark forest stretching across the horizon, and a river flowing against the current...

However, even though there are mountains, water, and sky here, he still knows very well that this is just an isolated space. After all, it is very different from the visual continuity of real nature!

Just then, a large eagle circled in the air.

This is a Demon Beast called the Pupil Eagle, a type of demon tool widely used by the military. Similar to the Evil Eye Bronze Mirror, it can transmit everything the Pupil Eagle sees through Light Magic and display it on the instrument as an image.

Without paying much attention, Tang Miao looked around and a slight smile appeared on his lips!

Because, it seems no one else has come here?

Immediately, he opened Dimensional Gate and summoned Little Black and its miscellaneous minions.

"Go, my good son, order your men to plunder all the valuables from your father!"

He naturally wouldn't choose to do such a laborious task himself.

As a big shot, how can I not have errand runners?

"Roar~!"

Little Black let out a somewhat disgruntled roar. After all, he thought he was being called out to fight?

But... I never expected to be doing manual labor here?!

"Zzz..."

"..."

"Zzz..."

Just as Little Black was feeling dissatisfied, bursts of lightning erupted from Tang Miao's hand!

Seeing this, Little Black left without saying a word.

Come to think of it, manual labor isn't so bad, is it? At least it's much better than being a punching bag!

After sending his men to search, Tang Miao found a large tree, jumped up, and lay down on it.

Although the mentors specifically instructed that once inside, we must reunite with the other team members as soon as possible to maximize our chances of winning the treasure, the treasures placed here by the organizers are unlikely to be just lying on the ground or anything like that.

But in a dog-eat-dog world, finding someone? Doesn't exist!!

Wouldn't it be easier to just grab a bunch of them once they've searched enough?

Although the other party might hold a grudge, Tang Miao wouldn't care about such things when money was involved.

Moreover, this Treasure Hunt Competition is not just about grabbing treasures, but also about the competition between the students. The rules do not say that you cannot take treasures from team members from other countries!

Tang Miao never breaks the rules, especially the rules he likes!

At this moment, the audience outside, after seeing this scene through Pupil Eagle, were all dumbfounded!

In this place overflowing with treasures, this guy actually went to lie down?

Okay, although he summoned a pack of beasts to search for treasure, what could a pack of beasts possibly find?

After all, among them, only the Shadow Demon Tiger is a leader. And even then, it doesn't seem to be one of the top leaders, right?

Of course, when its shadow energy is at its peak, Little Black is quite powerful. However, under normal circumstances, it is not very strong. After all, its bloodline is still several levels below that of the White Tiger.

Therefore, relying solely on herds of animals is not only costly, but also yields very little return.

Isn't this just a waste of time?

"What is this kid doing? Feng Li, didn't you give him a proper explanation before the Treasure Hunt Competition started?" Pang Lai's eyes widened at the sight.

That's fucking infuriating...

Feng Li was practically ready to jump up and curse!

Tang Miao's actions weren't his fault at all! He had specifically given him instructions beforehand!

Looking at Feng Li's Feng Li face, Pang Lai actually understood somewhat...

This probably has nothing to do with Feng Li at all.

It's entirely Tang Miao's fault for being a son of a bitch and not listening to orders...

Fortunately, Han Ji was also there and spoke up at the right time, "This kid probably doesn't intend to look for any resources or teammates."

"Doesn't he lack resources?"

Pang Lai was puzzled and said, "I've heard Jiang Yu say that this kid is greedy for money! Could he have just told me that?"

Feng Li was also very curious. Logically, Tang Miao should be the most excited kid at a time like this, right?

Why are you only now lying down to rest?

Han Ji smiled and said meaningfully, "It seems you haven't grasped some things. This is Treasure Hunt Competition, not a treasure scavenging competition!"

Neither of them were clueless greenhorns; they were both shrewd old foxes, and they immediately understood what Han Ji was saying.

Moreover, the more they thought about it, the more sense it made!

While this is normal practice, isn't it a bit too much to just jump at the chance to grab it right from the start?

In the audience seats of the Japanese side, the old woman looked at Tang Miao and curled her lip in disdain, saying, "This kid is really no good; he only wants to reap without sowing!"

Upon hearing this, Wangyue Qianxun immediately became displeased! Looking at her, she said, "Mentor Xinzi, there are no rules in this Treasure Hunt Competition; you can't steal what others have won. This isn't a reward, but rather a different kind of competition!"

P. S.: I'd love to update more, but circumstances don't allow it...
