Lin Yuan held the new blueprint, his face brimming with excitement.
He was so happy not just because of the Level 8 Ship Hull itself, but for a deeper reason.
Not long ago, Lin Yuan's total A-rank Energy had officially reached ten billion points.
This had brought his combat strength under normal conditions into the top fifty of the Authority Ranking.

This was no small improvement.
But compared to another change brought about by reaching ten billion points of total energy, it was hardly worth mentioning.
After Lin Yuan's total energy reached ten billion points, his "Incubation Progress," which had never budged since it first appeared, finally changed!
