By the time Xu Mang finished his mission and returned to the island, Xie Tian was already sprawled on the ground, panting heavily.
Seeing that Xu Mang had finally appeared, Xie Tian weakly said, "Brother Xu, I don't need your help, nor do I need you to save me. But you have to tell me about the second wave of Yin Soulbeasts, right?"
"There's another wave?"
Xu Mang's eyebrows twitched. He recalled that when he lured the Yin Soulbeasts away, he had casually tossed a mystical technique at the island. It seemed like it was this technique that attracted the second wave of Yin Soulbeasts.
But how shameless was he? Hearing the complaint in Xie Tian's voice, Xu Mang straightened his face and reprimanded, "This is a battlefield. As a reserve soldier, if you can't even deal with such a small change, you should just slit your own throat!"
Xie Tian thought about it and agreed. He shouldn't have taken the risk to kill the second wave of Yin Soulbeasts for the sake of those ten thousand contribution points.
"Oh right, kid, how many contribution points did you get?" Xu Mang squatted beside Xie Tian and put on a beaming expression as he asked.
"A total of fifty-six thousand eight hundred …" Xie Tian took out his badge and was pleasantly surprised. But then he remembered that Xu Mang was an expert from the eighth battalion. Wouldn't it be an insult to him to say a small number? He immediately corrected himself. "Excluding the small number, it's fifty-six thousand. Brother Xu, you can get twenty-eight thousand …"
"Don't, don't, don't!"
Xu Mang's face darkened when he saw that Xie Tian had actually erased hundreds of zeros. These hundreds of zeros were enough for him to take on several missions. He solemnly said, "Between brothers, there's no need to erase zeros. This is how I do things. One is one, two is two!"
Xie Tian had a whole new level of respect for Xu Mang. He had been worried that Xu Mang would ask for more contribution points, but now it seemed that Xu Mang was a true man.
But once the contribution points were distributed, Xu Mang couldn't hide the lewd smile on his face no matter how hard he tried. Xie Tian's heart was pounding. He couldn't be bothered to rest any longer and hurriedly controlled the Soaring Wings to flee.
"Kid, Brother Xu will be waiting for you tomorrow!"
Xie Tian almost fell from the sky when he heard Xu Mang's mushy tone.
A few hours later, Xie Tian finally returned to the matriculation camp. Before he could say anything to Boss Jia and the other two, he fell asleep on the ground in the blink of an eye.
This was the first time Xie Tian had fallen asleep since he came to the death camp. Even though Wang Tao was taken away by the Military Law Office, he still spent the night cultivating.
Finally, after continuing the path of body refinement, temporarily getting rid of Wang Tao, the enemy of the matriculation camp, and finding the hope of exchanging for the Wanxiang Painting, Xie Tian finally relaxed.
The way to relax was what the 800,000 people in the matriculation camp did almost every day — sleep.
Thinking of this, the eyes of Boss Jia and the other two, who were about to sleep, turned red. They felt extremely guilty.
In terms of age, the youngest was older than Xie Tian by 25 or 26 years, but in terms of temperament and perseverance, the three of them combined could not compare to Xie Tian!
"Everyone only sees Xie Tian's brilliance. Who can imagine how much Xie Tian has sacrificed under this brilliance!" Brother Ma murmured.
"I'm not sleeping anymore! Only Xiao Ma made it to the seventh wave after eating the Human Pulse Fruit. Xiao Er, from tonight onwards, don't think of yourself as a human! "
Xie Tian woke up after sleeping for six hours. He was surprised to find that Boss Jia and the other two were cultivating, which made him feel gratified.
However, he had no time to waste, because it would be the appointed time with Xu Mang in a few hours. As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw Xue Yan hiding in the darkness of the night.
"What's the matter?"
"Where are you going?"
Xie Tian smiled but did not say anything.
Xue Yan sighed. She had only asked casually, but seeing that Xie Tian did not answer, she revealed her purpose of coming here. "Wang Tao is out."
"Hmm?" Xie Tian's heart skipped a beat. "Wang Hai is back?"
Xue Yan shook her head. "It was the Ninth Battalion's commander-in-chief, Luo Xiao. He personally went to the Military Law Bureau to bring Wang Tao out."
"I see." Xie Tian nodded without batting an eyelid. "Is there anything else?"
"Wang Tao was tortured badly by the Military Law Bureau. The flesh on the left side of his face is gone, and more than half of his bones are broken." Xue Yan looked at Xie Tian. "You must be careful. He must hate you to the core."
That badly? Xie Tian was a little dazed. He nodded. "I'll be careful. Also, you must protect Boss Jia and the other two. Give me some time, and I'll break through to the next realm."
Watching Xie Tian disappear into the night, Xue Yan sighed and mocked herself, "Even if you can break through to the magical power realm, how will you face Wang Hai and Luo Xiao who is behind Wang Hai …"
Xu Mang was burning with anxiety as he waited for Xie Tian's arrival.
When he saw the crooked figure three thousand meters away, Xu Mang flew over and brought Xie Tian to the island. He then took out a palm-sized boat from his storage pouch.
"This thing is called a god? It'll fly twice as fast as the Kunpeng! "
Xie Tian was overjoyed, but Xu Mang's next words chilled his burning heart. "Even blood brothers should settle accounts clearly. A hundred thousand contribution points!"
"Fine!" Xie Tian clenched his teeth and agreed. It was just five days of free labor!
Another half a day of killing was over. Xu Mang couldn't help but grin as he looked at the contribution points on his token. Xie Tian, on the other hand, was livid.
For the god swap? He hadn't received a single contribution today. Including his punishment for not fighting, he'd lost ten points. How could he tolerate this?
"Brother Xu, you're an expert …"
Xu Mang glanced at Xie Tian and said lazily, "Brat, it's not that Big Brother Xu is lazy, but I don't get any merit for killing the phantasm beasts. Even if I kill the phantasm fiend warriors, I only get a little."
"That's not what I meant." Xie Tian shook his head. "The reason I can only kill a hundred thousand a day is because my stamina can't keep up."
"Damn it, are you showing off?" Xu Mang rolled his eyes. "You can't keep up with your stamina? Even a true element cultivator wouldn't be able to last as long as you! "
Xie Tian didn't realize that Xu Mang was praising him. "If my stamina could keep up, I could kill for an entire day! Brother Xu, your rank is high enough. Can you go to the Military Pavilion and see if there are any pills that can help me last longer? "
"Hm?" Xu Mang's eyes darted around in glee. "You little brat, you sure are crafty. Why didn't I think of that? Wait for me! "
An hour later, Xu Mang returned and tossed a bottle of pills to Xie Tian.
"A thousand contribution points. Eat one and you'll be able to hold up the sky for the rest of the day!"
"Hold up the sky?" Xie Tian was puzzled.
"It'll help you kill the phantoms until they shed their helmets and armor!"
Even someone as thick-skinned as Xu Mang felt a little embarrassed when he saw Xie Tian charging at the phantoms with blazing eyes. This pill could indeed increase one's stamina, but it only cost ten contribution points …
But that wasn't important. The key was that this pill was a pill!
"Brat, you're full of primordial yang energy and your soul is condensed. A few pills won't harm your foundation, so just bear with it …"
Xu Mang rubbed his nose and said shyly, "It's just that these Pure Yuan pills are too expensive. Brother Xu can't bear to part with them … Oh, this brat is pretty rich, but he still can't compare to me …"
On this day, Xie Tian killed more than a hundred thousand contribution points!
But when Xu Mang pulled him out of the phantoms, he was still able to hold up the sky.
"This, this pill is so fierce …"
Xie Tian didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, but he was still afraid of this pill. Not only did it increase his stamina, it also made his soul restless.
"Luckily I have a strong heart, but this pill …" Xie Tian hesitated for the time it took for a stick of incense to burn before finally gritting his teeth. "As long as I can get more contribution points, I'll eat it!"
Xu Mang's face turned red.
When Xie Tian returned to his barracks, panting heavily, Boss Jia and the other two didn't notice. But when they finished cultivating and saw Xie Tian's Heavenly Pillar, they finally realized something was wrong.
"No wonder he wasn't lying down …" Little Ma muttered to himself, but Boss Jia smacked him on the back of the head. "Our little buddy has finally grown up, haha! Little Ma, pass on the Blood Swallow! "
"Boss, do you mind if I fight you to the death?" Little Ma's eyes turned red.
Zhen Xiao 'er hurriedly said, "Boss, Little Ma likes Miss Blood Swallow."
"Hmph, you're already in your forties, yet you're still acting bashful when you like a girl!" Boss Jia sneered. "If I don't give it a try, do you think Brother Ma is going to continue on like this?"
Little Ma was dejected. "I-I'm not good enough for her …"
"A girl will submit to you!" Boss Jia said proudly.
"Do it!" Xie Tian's upper body bounced up, his eyes bloodshot as he roared, "Do it!" before collapsing back onto the bed and falling asleep.
