It was a pity that Jiang Changkong accepted the six thousand Star Stones, as well as the Star Stones they got from killing.
If they hadn't attracted the late-stage Star Spirit Star Demon and caused the competition to end early, he would have won even more.
The total number of Star Demons that he and these people had killed was only close to three hundred Hidden Star Demons.
There were six to seven hundred Star Gate level Star Demons, let alone Starsea level Star Demons.
Among them, more than half were early-stage Star Demons. There were only a few top-grade Star Demons, a dozen high-grade Star Demons, and the rest were mid-grade Star Demons.
There wasn't much Essence Qi left.
But with the three hundred thousand Essence Qi he got from Lin Yunwang, it was more than enough to upgrade a martial art.
"I'll return the Taiyin Sword to him."
After Jiang Changkong finished speaking, he stood up and left.
It was safe here. He didn't have to stay here to look after them.
Ji Young-sung had a pained expression. Six thousand Star Stones! Yue Guiye didn't win and had to pay six thousand.
"Sigh, if it wasn't for this accident, I think we still had a chance to win."
After Jiang Changkong left, Ji Young-sung couldn't help but mutter.
"How can we win? It's not like you didn't see Jiang Changyue nearby. "
An Yuanshan's face twitched because of the pain from his injuries. "If the situation wasn't right, would Jiang Changyue not make a move?"
Ji Young-sung opened his mouth but couldn't say anything in the end.
Yes, Jiang Changyue would definitely make a move. He wouldn't lose Yue Guiye to him.
This guy must have done it on purpose. He wanted to earn Star Stones!
"Don't think about it. Let's recover first." Li Changtian sighed. Luckily, he wasn't the one who lost.
As they started to recover, Jiang Changkong stayed away from them and extracted his Essence Qi.
After thinking for a while, he decided to upgrade the Cold Moon Art.
Jiang Changyue was stronger than him, and there was also Ji Young-sung, the rich little tycoon.
Perhaps he could use the Cold Moon Art to earn another sum of money from him.
The Cold Moon Art had reached perfection, and the star power in Jiang Changkong's body increased.
The power of the Moon Star automatically dissipated and froze the surroundings.
A silver moon rose above his head, sprinkling its moonlight.
An hour later, Jiang Changkong opened his eyes and checked his stats.

"I'm only missing one martial art."
Jiang Changkong was a little excited. He would soon be able to step into the Star Soul realm.
Even if he wasn't invincible, he would still be among the top.
He was confident in his own strength, but he wasn't as brainless as Yun Bugui.
In this world of cultivation, there were always a few monsters.
Didn't the Federation have any?
When he reached the peak of the early-stage or mid-stage of the Astral Spirit, he should be able to chat with those freaks in the big provinces.
Before that, he had to complete the mission and set up a base for the research institute.
After stabilizing his power, Jiang Changkong went to the stone house. The Star Demon hadn't left yet, and was still eating the bodies.
He didn't make a move. When the Star Demon was full, it would leave.
Even if it didn't leave, he could just kill it somewhere else and then lure it away.
With his current strength, he could only use the Moon Sword to fight against a late-stage Astral Spirit.
But if he did that, he would have to activate the power of the Moon Star in the tip of the sword and Yue Guiye, which he couldn't control.
When he returned to Ji Young-sung and the others, they had already counted the casualties.
Almost everyone was seriously injured, and more than ten people had died.
"I'm deeply sorry about what happened this time. I didn't expect you to learn my method."
Jiang Changkong said apologetically.
"It has nothing to do with you. We were too impulsive."
Ji Young-sung shook his head and said, "President An, I will take responsibility for the casualties this time."
"Thank you, Mr.Ji. Everyone needs to rest for two days. There's a late-stage Astral Spirit Star Demon at the base, so it will also need a few days."
An Dingbang cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, rest well for the next two days. We will fight again."
"Fight again?" Jiang Changkong frowned. Didn't you all admit defeat?
"We lost to you, but we haven't set up a base yet," An Dingbang said. "As promised, we will help you complete the mission for free."
Jiang Changkong thought for a moment and said, "Alright, the Star Ocean Star Stones are yours."
He didn't care for them, but selling them would make him a fortune. It would be a way to comfort their wounded hearts.
"Thank you," An Dingbang said and didn't say anything else.
Jiang Changkong glanced at the people who had stabilized their injuries. "See you at the base in two days."
"Please."
They said goodbye and left.
An Dingbang and the others had to go back to the city to treat their wounds. This time, their injuries were serious and they needed to go to the hospital.
Jiang Changkong had only suffered minor injuries before, so it was no longer a problem.
He thought for a moment and changed the place to kill the Star Demon.
There was no one around except him. Jiang Changkong lit up the sun again.
He was still cautious and kept his Blood Qi within a certain range.
When he was tired, Jiang Changkong went to the base to take a look.
The next morning, the late-stage Astral Spirit Star Demon had already left. The stone house had been destroyed.
At the two places where the Star Demon was killed, the corpses had all been eaten up.
Because of the attraction of Blood Qi, some Star Demon had gathered here, but the number was not as much as before.
Jiang Changkong began to clean up the Star Demon. This time, he didn't make too much of a commotion. He was worried that the Star Demon was still nearby.
Two days passed quickly. An Dingbang came with a hundred people from Budokai.
During the past two days of recuperation, he had not been idle. He had recruited a few more people and made up the numbers.
Ji Young-sung and the other two were there. An Yuanshan and the others didn't come.
"Chiang Kai-sheung, have you cleaned up the area?"
An Dingbang first brought his people around and didn't see the Star Demon, so he came to find him.
"There's no Star Demon within four miles. Only one mile left."
Jiang Changkong nodded. "I've seen it too. There isn't even an early-stage Astral Spirit in the last mile."
"That's good." An Dingbang heaved a sigh of relief. "If that's the case, let's leave the rest to them."
"Them?" Jiang Changkong was confused. What did he mean by them?
"My brothers from Budokai. Before we came, Professor Yun contacted me. She asked us to wait for her to check the mine."
An Dingbang said in a low voice.
Jiang Changkong raised an eyebrow. "Didn't she say to wait for the stronghold to be established?"
"Someone can't wait." An Dingbang gestured to Ji Young-sung.
"Mr.Ji, you're interested in the mine too?"
Jiang Changkong squinted his eyes. There was a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"It's a special time. Please understand, Chiang Kai-sheung." Ji Young-sung smiled.
"You're already so poor? What if it's just a small mine? "Jiang Changkong furrowed his eyebrows.
Could it be that he had won so much that Ji Young-sung had to find a way to make more money?
Ji Young-sung sighed. "There's an accident this time. You can check the official website of Budokai. The small mine in Jianghai has been taken."
Jiang Changkong turned on his phone and logged into the official website. As expected, the small mine mission had been taken.
"It's done by the major provinces. They're collecting resources like crazy."
Ji Young-sung said, "I'm afraid it won't be long before even I can fight for the mine."
"You geniuses from the major provinces are fighting for profits. Don't you think it's embarrassing?"
Jiang Changkong's expression was gloomy. If that was the case, his opponents would not just be the forces in Tranquil Province.
He would have to face Tranquil Province and the major provinces alone!
"There's no other way." Ji Young-sung shook his head and said, "But there won't be too many of them. The empire has a lot of land with lots of resources."
"When are we going to the mine area?"
Jiang Changkong said no more. The first thing he had to determine was the grade of the mine.
If it was a small mine, he would withdraw from the competition.
If it was a medium mine, he would have to rely on his own ability.
