"Aren't you coming back with us?"
The three were surprised by Su Ping's tone.
Su Ping answered, "I want to stay here for a while. After all, this is my first time in the Mysterious Realm."
Su Ping's words were understandable. That being said, Nie Chengkong and Guo Yuelin were dead. They were not in the mood to linger around. Besides, it would be dangerous for them to go back to the Mysterious Realm. They would only be able to watch from the plaza if they stayed.
Ye Chenshan built an astral power shield to block out the sound. He moved his lips and asked Su Ping, "What should we do with our treasures and the materials from the beasts?"
Su Ping thought for a moment. "How about we find a place to distribute the treasures?"
Ye Chenshan darted a look at Luo Guxue and Zhou Jing. Since they agreed, he said, "Okay."
"Let's go and check the treasures first," Zhou Jing said. There were a group of men in black standing at the edge of the plaza. They were responsible for checking the teams that left. All the items that the teams found in the Mysterious Realm had to be checked.
That was to say, nothing could be taken out of the Mysterious Realm without being noticed.
Those men in black were under the command of the master of the Mysterious Realm on Longtai Mountain. That master was not a single person. It could be a large group. That was why those men in black dared to open the Mysterious Realm to the public. They were not worried that the treasures in the Mysterious Realm would get out.
Of course, if some teams did find treasures, they would not "rob" them. They would buy the treasures in a fair way. They might buy them with a large sum of money or barter.
To put it bluntly, the explorers that came to explore the Mysterious Realm were all wage earners. It would be difficult for them to take away the real treasures. They could only find some relatively good ones. As for some treasures, while they could not take them away, they could trade them for a lifetime of wealth or something of equal value. Of course, they could also trade them for a status that they could never reach in their lifetime.
That was the reason.
While the treasures could not be leaked, there were still many teams that came to explore the Mysterious Realm.
After all, what most people really wanted were the decent treasures. They wouldn't dare to dream of getting their hands on the treasures that would drive even titled battle pet warriors crazy.
Hearing that, Su Ping, Ye Chenshan, and Luo Guxue's expressions changed slightly.
Clearly, the Astral Spirit Fruit could not be hidden. It wasn't a real treasure and it wouldn't attract the attention of titled battle pet warriors. However, for those at the upper position of the ninth rank, the Astral Spirit Fruit could help them reach the upper position of the ninth rank!
The next step was to break through the King's Shackles, which required luck and opportunity.
Ye Chenshan and Luo Guxue both looked at Su Ping. If Su Ping had eaten the Astral Spirit Fruit, he would have passed the inspection. After all, he had already eaten the Astral Spirit Fruit, so no one would be able to detect it. Even if they knew, they wouldn't be able to make Su Ping spit it out.
This consumable Ultimate Grade Secret Treasure was the only thing that could be easily "brought out" for inspection.
However …
Ye Chenshan didn't know how strong Su Ping was, but he knew that the latter couldn't be at the ninth rank. If that was the case, it would be a waste for Su Ping to take the Astral Spirit Fruit.
Luo Guxue had learned something about Su Ping from his performance in the academy. She hoped that Su Ping could take the Astral Spirit Fruit directly. Even if Su Ping was just at the beginning of the ninth rank, he could use the Astral Spirit Fruit to reach the intermediate position of the ninth rank!
For a genius like Su Ping, time was money. He might not be able to maximize the effect of the Astral Spirit Fruit, but it was worth it.
Su Ping had thought about that before. However, he was at the upper position of the fourth rank and was about to reach the fifth rank. He could reach the fifth rank in no time. It would be a waste for him to take the Astral Spirit Fruit now.
"It will be worth it if I can sell it." Su Ping said to himself. He didn't care much about the Astral Spirit Fruit. He could only take one Astral Spirit Fruit. The second one would lose its effect.
He had the Astral Spirit Fruit. He could take the Astral Spirit Fruit back and plant it. He could wait until he reached the upper position of the ninth rank before taking the Astral Spirit Fruit. That was why he had planned to sell the Astral Spirit Fruit. That way, he could upgrade his store.
"Let's go," Su Ping said calmly.
The two looked at each other in confusion since Su Ping didn't seem to care about the Astral Spirit Fruit at all.
But the Astral Spirit Fruit belonged to Su Ping. They didn't know what Su Ping was planning to do and they couldn't persuade him otherwise.
Soon, they arrived at the checkpoint.
It was a spacious room in the plaza. Inside the room stood a bunch of people in black uniforms. Some of them were sitting, some were leaning against the wall. All of them were powerful. Without exception, all of them were titled battle pet warriors!
It was almost impossible for an average person to break out of the checkpoint with treasures. After all, Dao Zun was at the peak of the titled rank, as well as several other old titled battle pet warriors at the peak of the titled rank. Apart from the dragon scale area in the Mysterious Realm, every corner of the plaza was under close surveillance.
The bearded middle-aged man in charge of the checkpoint saw Su Ping and the others coming over. He threw them an indifferent glance and said with a straight face, "Cooperate. Hand over your backpacks."
He was at the peak of the eighth rank, only one step away from reaching the titled rank. That one step was enough for the other titled battle pet warriors to stay in the prison. They would only need to step in when someone tried to cause trouble. But he had to stay there and tell everyone to take out their belongings. It was like he was on duty.
Ye Chenshan hesitated for a moment. In the end, he opened his backpack and poured the contents onto a white tray.
Apart from the food, there were also the crystals of the beasts he had collected along the way.
These energy crystals were sarcomas bred in the bodies of demon beasts. However, due to the accumulated energy inside, the sarcomas had turned into energy. They no longer had the appearance of flesh and blood, but now looked like pebbles. The dense energy inside made the pebbles look white and hazy, somewhat mysterious and strange.
Most of the energy crystals in his backpack were in dozens of different sizes. Some of them were in Luo Guxue's backpack.
The bearded middle-aged man raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect to see so many energy crystals. He narrowed his eyes when he saw some brightly colored crystals the size of a fist.
Those crystals were rich in energy. He had seen many crystals before. At first glance, he could tell that they were energy crystals of ninth-rank beasts!
Six in total!
That was to say, this team had killed six ninth-rank beasts?!
The bearded middle-aged man was not the only one who was startled. The titled battle pet warriors sitting around him felt the surge of energy and threw him a surprised look as well. When they saw the ninth-rank energy crystals on the tray, they couldn't help but look at Su Ping and the others.
However, they were confused when they sensed the fluctuation of energy from Su Ping and the others.
Clearly, Su Ping and the others weren't titled battle pet warriors like them. They were all advanced battle pet warriors.
Among them, Su Ping's energy was the strangest. He was very weak. He was not even at the fifth rank. Was he hiding his strength or was that true?
The bearded middle-aged man gazed at Ye Chenshan. "Did you kill all those beasts?"
Ye Chenshan nodded. He could tell that the bearded middle-aged man was doubting him. "Our captain and the other two master battle pet warriors killed those beasts. It's a pity that they died in there …"
The bearded middle-aged man and the titled battle pet warriors finally understood what had happened. They were confused. The strong ones had died and the weak ones had come back. They didn't know if they should say that those people were lucky or that their team leader and the two master battle pet warriors were unlucky.
"Yours." The bearded middle-aged man pointed at Luo Guxue.
Luo Guxue opened her backpack and poured out the contents. There were some energy crystals as well. Two of them were from ninth-rank beasts. The rest were useful materials from the beasts.
Since they were in a hurry, they didn't have time to collect many valuable materials. They only picked the most useful ones.
