The Second-to-Last Tier

The Earth Dragon remained silent, but was deeply shaken. Strength Amplitude of thirty? How could an ordinary Star Level Warrior possess such a high Strength Amplitude?

Generally speaking, the Strength Amplitude of a ninth- Star Level- level Warrior is around thirty, while he is only Star Level 4 martial artist, so his Strength Amplitude is only twenty-two.

Increasing the Strength Amplitude is very difficult. Even though he Fourth Layer of his domain, the progress of his Strength Amplitude is very slow.

"What is the Strength Amplitude?" the Earth Dragon couldn't help but ask.

"Well, that's a secret," Xu Qing said with a mischievous smile.

Even the Earth Dragon is about to swear; deliberately keeping people in suspense, this kind of person really deserves a beating.

However, the Earth Dragon could roughly deduce that the opponent's Strength Amplitude was definitely higher than his, no less than twenty-five, and possibly close to thirty.

"How can there be such a high Strength Amplitude? Could this be a monstrous genius?" the Earth Dragon began to wonder.

With his Fourfold Domain, he is already an elite genius in a high-level Universe Country.

"Alright, alright, Brother Earth Dragon, you should admit defeat. You should be able to see that you're no match for me, okay?" Xu Qing looked at him.

"You want me to admit defeat willingly? That's impossible. You can only defeat me," the Earth Dragon shook its head, refusing outright.

He came with a mission, which was to test Xu Qing's true strength, but he couldn't even complete the mission.

"Speaking of which, Brother Earth Dragon, you suddenly challenged me. You don't have any ulterior motives, do you? I've been watching here for so long, and I haven't seen many Warrior with a domain, let alone Fourfold Domain like yours."

"Brother, are you from somewhere else, sent here to test me?" Xu Qing muttered to himself, pondering the matter.

Earth Dragon heard Xu Qing's mutterings to himself, his heart skipped a beat. This kid is so perceptive!

"Enough with the nonsense, defeat me first!" the Earth Dragon roared and charged forward.

The Earth Dragon charged forward, and then Earth Dragon died!

Suddenly, the Earth Dragon's head flew up, his eyes filled with disbelief—so fast!

"Bye-bye," he saw Xu Qing wave to him.

Xu Qing's personal profile now shows 1 win.

Upon exiting the Decisive Battle Space, Xu Qing saw Luo Feng and the others. "Hey, eldest brother, second brother, brother-in-law, you're all here!"

"Xiao Qing, has someone challenged you?" the three asked, looking at him.

Xu Qing nodded, "Yes, a Warrior at the Fourth-Level Domain. It was boring playing with him."

None of the three were surprised to hear Xu Qing's words.

"And you?" Xu Qing sat down.

"We also encountered Domain Warrior, and apart from my Elder Brother, we were all defeated," Luo Feng said.

"Defeated? Second Brother's domain is only at the first level, so his defeat is understandable. But Brother-in-law, you're at the second level, right? You lost too?" Xu Qing was somewhat curious. Could it be that the one challenging them was Warrior at the Triple Domain of the domain?

"Hey, Fourth Brother, what are you saying? What do you mean it's understandable that I lost?" Thor glared.

Xu Qing shrugged. "Second brother, isn't your area of expertise the weakest?"

"I..." Thor was speechless and could only sulk.

"I don't know. My opponent has more combat experience than me, and their combat skills are also very high. They have an overwhelming advantage. Apart from my last trump card, I used all my strength and still couldn't force them to use their domain," Luo Feng said.

He paused, then added, "After so many battles, this is the first time I've encountered such a strong opponent."

"Yes, this is the first time I've encountered such a strong opponent. If I hadn't broken through to the third level of my domain at the end, I probably would have already lost," Hong said.

This made Thor feel even worse; he was now the worst behind of the four.

At this moment, in a quiet room, Earth Dragon and two other Warrior, a man and a woman, stood there, bowing to a burly man with a dark blue-green complexion. "My lord, mission accomplished."

"Hmm, Earth Dragon, your performance this time has been a bit disappointing," the burly man said, looking at Earth Dragon.

The Earth Dragon smiled wryly, "My lord, I am no match for him."

Upon hearing this, the man and woman beside him both showed expressions of astonishment. The Earth Dragon had been defeated?!

"However, it's not your fault. I saw your battle. I can only say that you, Earth Dragon, deserved your defeat. It's a pity that you couldn't see his domain and that he guessed your purpose," the burly man said with some amazement.

I never expected to see such outstanding young people in such a remote place.

"Yes, I've distributed the points. You can go back now," the burly man waved his hand.

"Yes," the three of them vanished into nothingness and returned to reality.

The burly man stared at the four people on the screen, pondered for a long time, and then called over a staff member from the Killing Field, "Please have the four of them come over here."

In the lobby, the staff member approached Xu Qing and his group, "Gentlemen, an esteemed guest requests your presence upstairs."

"Looking for us?" Luo Feng and his group were somewhat surprised.

Xu Qing seemed to have guessed something.

However, if someone invites them, they still have to give them face, since most of the people upstairs are powerful individuals at the Universe Level or above, with status and position.

Knock knock!

"Sir, the four guests have been brought in," the staff member said respectfully as he opened the door, then withdrew.

"Come in," the burly man said with a faint smile.

Xu Qing and the others then went inside.

"Cosmic Two-Star Mercenary!" Luo Feng and the others were all shocked when they saw the badge on the man's battle robe.

The emblem depicts two planets suspended on a raging sea of blood; this is the symbol of the Cosmic Two-Star Mercenary.

The strength of Cosmic Two-Star Mercenary is at least at the Domain Lord level, and only Domain Lord can participate in the Cosmic Two-Star Mercenary.

In other words, the person in front of us is at least Domain Lord level being, or even World Lord.

"Greetings, Your Excellency!"

Everyone shows respect in the presence of a powerful person, Xu Qing and the others immediately bowed.

The burly man nodded slightly. "Hmm, I've been observing you for a while now. You're quite impressive, having already achieved a domain at the Planetary Level and Star Level. You can be considered Human Race geniuses."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qing and the others remained calm. They didn't believe that this powerful figure had summoned them just to praise them.

"Sir, so you sent someone to test us, is there something you want to discuss?" Xu Qing asked directly.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng and the others showed expressions of surprise. A test? It was those Warrior!

The burly man laughed, "I didn't expect you to think of this. You're quite remarkable. It's a pity that the people I found couldn't even test your strength."

"Are you... hiding your true abilities?"

As he spoke, the burly man stared at Xu Qing, as if trying to see right through him.

"No, it's just that the person you found was a little weak. If he were stronger, he could have tested my strength," Xu Qing said naturally.

Seeing Xu Qing's demeanor, Luo Feng and the others were filled with admiration. If they didn't know Xu Qing, they probably would have already believed it.

"Haha, good lad," the burly man laughed. Interesting, he hadn't encountered such a clever genius in a long time.

Then, the burly man looked at Hong and asked, "You're currently at the Planetary Level Nine. Do you feel that breaking through is very difficult?"

"Yes, it is quite difficult. This is probably because my bloodline is low. If I want to break through quickly, I need to experience life and death," Hong nodded and said.

He's not Little White anymore; Babata has already given him a lot of guidance, and he understands where his problems lie.

Upon hearing Hong's words, the burly man's next words caught in his throat.

"That's right, that's exactly what happened. Your teacher told you that, didn't he?" the burly man asked curiously.

Hong shook his head. "I have no teachers. We all come from a remote planet and have no mentors."

"Oh, is that so?" the burly man exclaimed in surprise. Four wild Human Race geniuses?!

Then, he turned on the screen and pulled up a form. "Human Race bloodlines vary, and their evolutionary efficiency also differs. There are roughly ten levels of Human Race bloodlines. See which level you belong to, and perhaps I can offer some assistance."

Xu Qing and the others looked over and saw a form listing the bloodlines of the Human Race, from the first-class bloodline to the tenth-class bloodline.

The highest-ranking Human Race bloodline can reach the Domain Lord level upon adulthood, while the second-ranking bloodline can reach the Universe Level upon adulthood...

As they continued reading, Xu Qing and the others discovered that the bloodlines of Earthling were incredibly low, at the ninth rank. Without cultivation, even adults couldn't reach the Apprentice Level.

Through cultivation, one can break through to the Planetary Level and Star Level.

"Second to last," Xu Qing smacked his lips. "The Earthling bloodline... is really a bit trashy."

Luo Feng and the others felt the same way, but at least they weren't last, which was some consolation.

"So, what's your bloodline?" the burly man asked.

"Ninth class," Luo Feng replied.

Upon hearing this answer, the burly man was astonished, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Xu Qing and the others.

Holy crap, four geniuses with domain-specific abilities have appeared at once from the ninth-tier Human Race bloodline?!

The odds of that are even lower than winning a multi-million dollar lottery.

"Our bloodline is a bit low, but there's nothing we can do about it," Xu Qing said, shrugging.

"Haha, I didn't mean to belittle you. On the contrary, I admire you. It's truly remarkable that a ninth-grade bloodline could produce three Star Level and one Planetary Level beings," the burly man laughed.

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Ming Yu. I am an external steward from the Virtual Universe Company, stationed at the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire," the burly man said with a smile.

Virtual Universe Company!

Xu Qing and the others were all very surprised; it turned out that they were from Virtual Universe Company, one of the five giants of the Human Race.

"No wonder it's Virtual Universe Company; even the Domain Lord can only be an external steward," Babata exclaimed in astonishment.

"I called you here today to give you a big gift: Bloodline Evolution Agent," Ming Yu continued.

"Bloodline Evolution Agent?" Xu Qing and the others looked surprised. It sounded obvious; it was something that evolved bloodlines.

But does such a thing really exist?

"Bloodline Evolution Agent! He can actually provide this restricted product! You must seize this opportunity and get the Bloodline Evolution Agent from him!" Babata shouted urgently.

Babata's strong reaction made Xu Qing and the others realize that this Bloodline Evolution Agent was a good thing.

"Lord Ming Yu, are you going to give us Bloodline Evolution Agent? Thank you, Lord Ming Yu, Ming Yu are such a kind person," Xu Qing blurted out.

Luo Feng and the others were completely dumbfounded by Xu Qing's words. Did he really think the other party would actually deliver it?

Ming Yu's eye twitched, but he maintained his composure. "Don't try to flatter me."

"This Bloodline Evolution Agent is manufactured by our Virtual Universe Company and is rarely circulated outside. Even if outsiders could buy it, it would be at an exorbitant price."

"However, it's different for the company's internal members, especially the geniuses and elites; they can even be provided for free," Ming Yu explained.

His true intentions were finally revealed: he wanted Xu Qing and the others to join the Virtual Universe Company.

"You're all smart people, you should already understand what I mean," Ming Yu said with a smile.

"Ming Yu, what do we need to do if we join the Virtual Universe Company?" Xu Qing and the others exchanged glances, and then Hong Lai asked.

Next, Ming Yu patiently explained the differences between joining the Virtual Universe Company and joining an external one.

Joining the Virtual Universe Company means being subject to strict management, while joining an external entity offers more freedom, allowing you to join other external forces.

Of course, if you join an external organization, you can no longer obtain the Bloodline Evolution Agent for free; you'll have to buy it yourself, and each person can only purchase a maximum of three copies.

Ming Yu himself is an external member of the Virtual Universe Company, and also a two-star mercenary of the Universe Mercenary Alliance.

After careful consideration, Xu Qing and the others decided to follow Ming Yu's example and become external members.

"It seems you also value freedom. Fine, joining the outside world is the same as me, except you won't get many benefits," Ming Yu, unsurprised.

Finally, Xu Qing and his group joined the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Virtual Universe Company as external members, under the jurisdiction of Ming Yu.

Later, the topic of Bloodline Evolution Agent came up.

"The Bloodline Evolution Agent is only effective on the first use, meaning that each person can only use it once. Moreover, the lower the bloodline level, the better the effect. Generally, it can only be used on bloodlines below the fourth rank."

"And Bloodline Evolution Agent are further divided into ordinary Evolution Agent and S-Type Bloodline Evolution Agent..."

External personnel can enjoy a 90% discount on the first ordinary Bloodline Evolution Agent, at 100 million Ganwu Coin. However, the second and third agents will not be discounted; they will be sold at ten times the original price, which is 1 billion Ganwu Coin.

However, if it were replaced with S-Type Bloodline Evolution Agent, the price would be reduced to half, which is 5 billion Ganwu Coin.

Without a doubt, the S-type Bloodline Evolution Agent is more effective than the ordinary Bloodline Evolution Agent, but it's just more expensive.

"My personal suggestion is that if you have the means, buy the S-type Bloodline Evolution Agent, but it's very expensive. If that's not possible, just buy a regular Bloodline Evolution Agent; it will still be very useful to you," Ming Yu reminded him.

Xu Qing and the others thought for a moment and decided that if they were going to buy something, they should buy the best. They happened to have money on hand, so they decided to buy the S-Type Bloodline Evolution Agent!

"You can afford it?!" Ming Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Fifty billion Ganwu Coin, if converted to Black Dragon Coin, would amount to five trillion Black Dragon Coin. Even Universe Level being would have to grit their teeth to come up with that amount; it would seem rather tight.

It's truly remarkable that Star Level or Planetary Level- level power could come up with this much money.
