On the Battle Stage.

Yang Yu and Wind Demon exchanged only a few words before starting their battle!

Suddenly, a pale blue domain with a radius of over two hundred meters, centered on the Wind Demon, appeared around him, with countless wind Wind Blade whistling and swirling within it.

His figure appeared and disappeared within this domain, and with a flash, he closed the distance between himself and Yang Yu. It seemed that another flash would bring him right in front of Yang Yu.

Seeing that his opponent was indeed very fast, Yang Yu no longer concealed his abilities. His fifth-level Thunder Domain appeared without reservation, with the domain's range controlled to be roughly the same as his opponent's. Then, he merged into the domain, transforming into a bolt of Thunder and rushing towards his opponent.

"So fast!"

The Special Grade Elite named Wind Demon was startled. The Wind Origin Law was extremely adept at speed, but now it seemed that the Lightning Law was no less impressive.

Because Yang Yu's Domain Realm was higher and his Law Comprehension was deeper, he not only completely erased the difference in their levels, but his speed was also more powerful and faster than his opponent's!

Truly lightning fast!

"Tsk tsk, he has indeed entered the Lightning Origin Law, and his level of comprehension is quite high. The integration with his domain is so perfect. This battle against the Wind Demon is in jeopardy."

As External Steward of the Virtual Universe Company stationed in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, Ming Yu was also Domain Lord Level Giant Axe Warrior. Naturally, he had a high level of insight and easily saw the difference in cultivation levels between Yang Yu and Wind Demon.

Really.

Previously, Wind Demon could easily crush his opponents with his speed advantage, but now, facing an opponent whose speed far surpasses his own, he suddenly doesn't know what to do.

However, as Special Grade Elite at the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters, Wind Demon also possesses excellent combat skills and on-the-spot reaction. Knowing that he couldn't outrun Fengmo in speed, he immediately took other countermeasures.

In an instant, the Wind Demon's offensive Sword Technique transformed into a defensive Sword Technique.

Just as Wind Demon adjusted, Yang Yu launched a lightning-fast attack.

"Boom!"

Yang Yu raised his blade like a real lightning bolt, slashing down directly at Wind Demon!

Even though Wind Demon's defensive Sword Technique was profound and extraordinary, it was still inferior to Yang Yu's Thunder Blade Technique, which he had honed through countless battles.

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound of weapons clashing, Wind Demon's raised rapier was instantly cleaved away by Yang Yu's fierce War Blade!

Yang Yu continued his offensive without waning, his War Blade flashing with Thunder speed, instantly beheading the Wind Demon!

Yang Yu wins!

Wind Demon, who had been teleported out of the Battle Arena, was still a little dazed. He was a true genius who had been recruited in advance by the Virtual Universe Company. He didn't need to participate in the Genius Competition at the Star Level and could directly become an internal Core Member. However, at the beginning, he could only become a member of the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm. His future performance would depend on his performance.

Even so, it's still excellent.

He had originally thought he was already unmatched at the Planetary Level and was preparing to break through to the Star Level soon to participate in the next stage of training at the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters. But what happened today brought him back to his senses.

There are still people in the universe who are more talented than him!

Moreover, both of them are Martial Artist with explosive speed, and they have both comprehended the Origin Law, so the outcome of their battle can be decided in less than a second.

This can be said to be the fastest and most crushing defeat Wind Demon has ever suffered in the Battle Arena.

Although his rank was higher than Yang Yu's, his speed was instantly reduced to the extreme under the suppression of the opponent's domain. Moreover, the opponent's Movement Technique and Blade Technique were far superior to his own. In this battle, he could be said to be powerless to resist.

At that moment, Wind Demon suddenly regretted not choosing the shield.

But then he thought, even if he chose the shield, he would still lose this battle. The only difference would be that he would withstand one or two more hits, even though his skill with the shield was not low.

But considering that Yang Yu was just a Genius Martial Artist from a small place like the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, he thought he could win the match with ease.

But Yang Yu's appearance made him realize that there are always mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people.

Watching the Wind Demon's figure dissipate, Yang Yu also withdrew from the Battle Arena.

To be honest, Yang Yu only used less than half of his strength in this battle. Although this Wind Demon had crossed the threshold of the Wind Origin Law, his comprehension was still very low, and it had not merged with his domain at all. Even his pure Domain Realm was two levels lower than his own, so naturally, this battle was a foregone conclusion.

Although his rank was slightly higher, he would still be instantly killed in a real battle. His advantage in Wind Demon energy was practically useless given the huge difference in their cultivation levels.

At this point, Yang Yu's record reached 1000 wins and 0 losses!

Having watched the entire battle, Ming Yu sent the recording to Man Luo. After receiving permission to issue Special Grade Elite recruitment contract, Ming Yu happily sent one of his men to find Yang Yu, who was resting in the main hall of the Killing Field.

He can earn Points as long as he successfully recruits a genius like Yang Yu. And the Points won't be low!

This is also why Man Luo and Ming Yu are willing to spend time and energy discovering geniuses.

In the bustling hall of the Killing Field.

Yang Yu, who was resting on a bench, saw a staff member from the Killing Field approaching him. "Hello, sir, there is a Quiet Room Master upstairs who would like to have a chat with you."

"The Quiet Room Master?" Yang Yu's eyes lit up. It must be that guy Ming Yu who came to recruit him.

"Alright, lead the way," Yang Yu said with a smile as he stood up.

"Okay," the young-looking staff member replied respectfully.

Actually, some forces had previously tried to recruit Yang Yu by blocking him in the Killing Field lobby, after all, Yang Yu's performance was just too outstanding.

Among them was the Black Dragon Mountain Empire Royal Family. The recruiters even guaranteed that once Yang Yu them, he could be personally instructed by the Founding Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

However, Yang Yu declined. The Black Dragon Mountain Empire's emperor was not even as powerful as the fallen Hu Yanbo, so there was no need for him to join such a force.

Other forces within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, such as Hundred Tiger Tower, North Dragon City, and Black Cloud Association, also extended olive branches to Yang Yu, but Yang Yu naturally rejected them all.

In addition, Ganwu Universe Country Royal Family also contacted Yang Yu. Although their offers were much better than those offered by the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, Yang Yu still refused them.

Given Yang Yu's current talent and potential, he should at least be accepted into one of the top -Top Force such as Virtual Universe Company, Great Axe Coliseum, or Universe Mercenary Alliance.

Now that Virtual Universe Company has finally sent someone to contact me, I can take a look at their terms first.

We followed the staff to an elegantly decorated room.

"Sir, this is the room." The staff member then knocked on the door.

"Come in," a deep voice rang out.

The door opened.

The staff member then bowed respectfully to Ming Yu before leaving and closing the door.

"Thunder Warrior, right? Don't be shy, just sit down." Ming Yu stood up and said gently, his soft voice slightly out of place with his strong and burly physique.

"Yes, sir," Yang Yu said with a smile. Then he saw the Blood Sea Medal on Ming Yu's chest, which indeed had two planets floating on it.

Two-Star Universe Mercenary!

This means that Ming Yu is considered a strong figure among the Domain Lord.

After all, he was a formidable being capable of winning a thousand consecutive battles in the life-or-death struggle against Domain Lord Level.

The two took their seats.

"Young man, you have a good bearing. Let me introduce myself. My name is Ming Yu, and I am the External Steward the Military Department of the Virtual Universe Company stationed in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. You can call me Ming Yu or Deacon Ming Yu. I have been keeping an eye on you for over a month, and your opponent in that previous battle was also sent by me."

The burly man, Ming Yu, said with a smile, "I just didn't expect that you could defeat Planetary Level- Special Grade Elite from headquarters so easily. Your talent needs to be re-evaluated."

"Ming Yu, you are too modest. You may call me Yang Yu. This battle was not easy for me either," Yang Yu said humbly.

"Haha, Yang Yu, you're very modest. Your strength and talent are indeed very strong, there's no doubt about that. However, your current strength Planetary Level 4, and you've only improved by one level in the past month. I suppose you don't have any powerful backing, or if you do, it's a very small one." Ming Yu picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and gestured for Yang Yu to drink as well.

"To be honest, Ming Yu, I haven't officially joined any other forces yet," Yang Yu said with a smile. Becoming Registered Disciple of Yunmo Planet doesn't really count as officially joining in the universe.

"Just as I thought, that's why I came to see you this time. I will be recruiting you ahead of schedule on behalf of Virtual Universe Company!" Ming Yu said with a hearty laugh, his voice deep and cheerful.

"With your qualifications and talent, Yang Yu, you can get the most prestigious recruitment contract from our Virtual Universe Company! As long as you agree to join, the terms will be more generous than you can imagine!"

"Please give me a detailed introduction, Ming Yu," Yang Yu said calmly, without any excitement.

"Look." Ming Yu waved his hand, and a virtual display screen appeared in front of Yang Yu, detailing the contents of the Special Grade Elite recruitment contract for Yang Yu and some restrictions.

After reading it carefully, it's clear that the restrictions on becoming Internal Member now are indeed very strict. You could say that once you join, you basically have no personal freedom left. Only when you become Domain Lord or World Lord will you have some freedom.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Yu said, "Ming Yu, may I ask what this S-grade Bloodline Potion is?"

"Haha, it seems you really haven't been in contact with any truly powerful forces." Ming Yu laughed and waved his hand again, displaying a list of Bloodline Grade in front of Yang Yu. "Take a look at which level your bloodline belongs to, and I'll explain it to you in detail."

After taking a look, Yang Yu found that it was indeed as described in the Original Work; the Bloodline Grade of Earthlings was basically the lowest, ranking Ninth Grade, second to last.

"Um, Ming Yu, according to this classification, my Bloodline Grade should be Ninth Grade," Yang Yu said.

"Hmm?" Ming Yu paused in his relaxed tea-drinking, then looked at Yang Yu in disbelief. "It's actually the Ninth Grade! That's unbelievable. With such a poor bloodline, you've actually cultivated to the Planetary Level 4. What's even more remarkable is your comprehension and talent. To be so strong with such a poor bloodline is truly remarkable."

"Tsk tsk, Yang Yu, once you use the highest-grade S-Grade Bloodline Evolution Agent, your future will truly be limitless."

"As the name suggests, the purpose of the Bloodline Evolution Agent is to raise your Bloodline Grade. An S-grade one can directly raise your Bloodline Grade to the Domain Lord Level, ensuring you won't encounter any bottlenecks before reaching the Domain Lord. Of course, it cannot directly enhance your strength; it only modifies and optimizes your bloodline from the depths of your genes, strengthening and improving your foundation."

"I see, this Evolution Agent is indeed a good thing." Yang Yu said with satisfaction, "However, Ming Yu, I see that this contract states that I can only receive this Evolution Agent for free if I fully join the Virtual Universe Company."

"Of course, this Bloodline Evolution Agent is extremely expensive to produce and is a restricted product. It's not sold in regular stores at all. You can only get it by joining our Virtual Universe Company, and you have to be a true genius," Ming Yu explained.

"Ming Yu, I'd like to ask, according to the contract, once I join Virtual Universe Company, am I obligated to obey the company's arrangements and almost lose my freedom?" Yang Yu asked.

"So far, yes. In the early stages, your strength is weak, and the company's focus is on training you, so the management will be very strict. You must obey the company's orders and undergo a series of training sessions, life-or-death adventures, and so on," Ming Yu said with a smile.

"However, as your strength increases, your freedom will also expand. The stronger you are, the freer you will be. At that time, you will only need to do certain things at crucial moments, and you will be completely free the rest of the time."

Indeed, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

The Special Grade Elite contract offers unimaginably generous benefits, including access to top-tier Nutrient Pod, training from truly elite instructors, and targeted Trial Secret Realm to help unlock potential and enhance strength.

However, Yang Yu is unwilling to do so if it comes at the cost of sacrificing his freedom, at least not at this stage.

"Ming Yu, how many years does the training period typically take, and at what level is one considered to have completed the training period?"

"Once you break through to the Universe Level, you'll be out of the nurturing period. This time varies, but generally, the fastest takes at least a hundred years."

Having been rigorously trained for over a century, not to mention the secrets that prevented Yang Yu from undergoing such rigorous training for so long, even Earth couldn't wait that long. Yang Yu also had to take care of his grandfather and make money as soon as possible to buy Earth.

"I'm sorry, Ming Yu, but I simply cannot accept such strict management for so long," Yang Yu said.

"Well, as expected, geniuses like you love freedom. But that's alright. The company only needs to strictly manage its Internal Member; you can also choose to join external teams! Managing External Member is much more relaxed."

Ming Yu wasn't surprised that Yang Yu refused; he often encountered such situations, not to mention others, he himself was External Member.

"If you become External Member, although you won't be able to obtain S-grade Bloodline Evolution Agent for free, you can still buy them with money. Moreover, given your status Special Grade Elite, the cost will be very low, requiring only ten million Ganwu Dollar. Considering your origins in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, you can also use ten billion Black Dragon Dollar to pay."

Ming Yu smiled and said, "This is only because you're Special Grade Elite. However, please note that this low price is only for the first purchase. The second purchase will cost 100 million Ganwu Dollar, and you can only buy it with Ganwu Dollar. It can only be used by people around you. If you are found to be selling it, you will die!"

"You need to pay attention to this. Although the company has very few restrictions on External Member, some rules still need to be strictly followed. This is also the contract for External Special Grade Elite Member. Think about whether you can accept it."

Ming Yu his hand to remove the virtual screen, and a new contract appeared in its place.

After reviewing it carefully, Yang Yu found that the constraints on External Member were indeed very low, and their degree of freedom was extremely high.

Five minutes later.

"Welcome to Virtual Universe Company. From now on, you are External Member of our Black Dragon Mountain Branch Virtual Universe Company will be under my temporary jurisdiction. You can email me directly if needed. Your S-Grade Bloodline Evolution Agent will also be delivered to your designated location within one month."

Ming Yu smiled and said.

"Okay, thank you, Ming Yu." Yang Yu bowed slightly.

Just now, after signing the contract with the External Member, Yang Yu also paid for the Bloodline Evolution Agent.

Fortunately, Yang Yu still had a lot of resources left after purchasing slaves; otherwise, he might not even have had the money to buy Bloodline Evolution Agent.

This also shows that there are so many places in the universe where money is needed. Now that they have successfully obtained the Evolution Agent, the next step is to put the money-making plan on the agenda to ensure that the speed of their strength improvement is not restricted.

The delivery address Yang Yu left was a room in a hotel on Qiu Long Planet. This room had been booked two months in advance by Babata, so he only needed to go there to receive the goods.

After bidding Ming Yu, Yang Yu's consciousness returned to the real world.

"Babata, get ready. While we're at it, take a comprehensive sample of Earth's data. We'll set off for Qiu Long Planet tomorrow to retrieve the Bloodline Evolution Agent. We'll also carry out that plan during the journey. If all goes well, we can buy Earth once we arrive on Qiu Long Planet."

"No problem, the data has already been collected, and we can take off at any time!" Babata said happily.
