Sheesh!

"The store has been upgraded successfully. In four hours, the second battle of Peerless Hero will begin."

"Please make all necessary preparations in advance."

All the tiny text vanished in a flash.

A Battle Preparation Room for Demons, Ghost Monsters, and humans...?

Why were Demons and Ghost Monsters suddenly involved?

Xu Yuan glanced at the store's name. In "Demons, Ghost Monsters, and Humans' Battle Preparation Room," the words "Demons and Ghost Monsters" were gray.

There's a secret here!

"Why are 'Demons and Ghost Monsters' gray, and why hasn't the third ability unlocked?"

He asked silently in his mind.

A line of faintly glowing text appeared:

"It will unlock when the time is right. If that time never comes, you can pretend it doesn't exist."

...Why is it always 'when the time is right'?

It was just like the Final Enlightenment Ring. He had to wait for "the right time."

Fine.

That's no problem.

Just like last time, I'll deal with it once I have a Blank Historical Branch.

Xu Yuan checked the time.

Four hours.

First, he would take food to the hospital and get the contract signed while he was there.

Then he could focus on the second battle!

Zhao Shulan's ward had six beds.

For some reason,

she was now the only patient in it, and no new patients had come in.

It was quite peaceful.

The head of her bed had been raised.

Sitting up, Zhao Shulan read the contract carefully from beginning to end, then smiled.

"There's no problem. We're leaving Xu Yuan in your hands. He's a lively child, so please be patient with him."

"You're too kind, Ms. Zhao. He's an exceptionally fine piece of uncut jade. We hope to build something brilliant together with him," Zhai Qingya said politely.

"Then let's sign."
