Chapter 405 Evening

Xu Jingming stopped the cold training method and opened his personal combat power panel.

"My spearmanship has indeed improved a lot in the past few days of the competition." Xu Jingming smiled. In the past, he buried himself in cultivation, and the virtual opponents' intelligence was average. The one on the fifth floor of the Star Tower was too terrifying; he would be killed after a few moves.

The competition, the matches against Yersarova and Tiger Fussen, and today's match against his master Liu Hai, had been of great help to his spearmanship.

"Hua Hong Spearmanship, improved to fifth level 39%." Xu Jingming looked at the panel. "There's still a considerable distance to fifth level 50%. My actual combat bonus has also increased a bit, reaching 280%."

The gradual improvement in strength gave Xu Jingming more confidence in the finals.

"Tiano!"

Xu Jingming was already looking forward to tonight's battle. He had never fought Tiano before.

...

Yinghuo Star, outer space.

A gray-skinned man stood alone in outer space. His close-fitting robe had golden patterns on it. His hair was silver-gray, but his appearance was exactly the same as Tiano Xire.

"Whoosh!"

The light emitted by the distant sun was attracted when it approached him, and the light began to distort and pour into the gray-skinned man's body, being absorbed by the body.

"Hmm?" The gray-skinned man sensed something, opened his eyes and looked, and a stream of light was flying from afar. When it got closer, it quickly decelerated, and after decelerating, it could be seen that it was a small spaceship. A man flew out of the small spaceship.

The man who flew out was wearing a protective combat suit. He was Angus, the secretary-general of the Blue Star Alliance.

Angus saw the other party's robe with golden patterns, and secretly sighed: "The 'Black Night' biological combat suit I bought is probably not even worth a fraction of what Tiano is wearing."

"Envoy Tiano." Angus's posture was somewhat ingratiating.

"Angus." Tiano had silver-gray hair and silver-gray eyebrows. "Why are you here?"

"The third mining area of Yinghuo Star has just been excavated. Does the envoy want to inspect and confirm?" Angus asked.

"As long as I am in your solar system, the entire solar system is within the monitoring range of my spaceship." Tiano said, "The mining of minerals will be automatically confirmed by the spaceship's intelligence. There is no need for me to inspect it every time."

"Yes, yes." Angus nodded repeatedly. He was just finding a reason to see Tiano. Then, he spoke of the most important topic, "Envoy, in one year, our Blue Star civilization's protection period will be over. The Blue Star civilization will also be integrated into the entire universe's human civilization. Because of this, our Blue Star civilization is also very uneasy..."

Tiano observed the secretary-general and smiled, "There is no need to play pitiful in front of me. The Blue Star civilization has very good mineral deposits, and it has also obtained relics left by other civilizations. The foundation is very good. Your Blue Star higher-ups are also good; at least, they have popularized virtual helmets and evolution methods."

"Envoy." Angus nodded. "Our Blue Star civilization is very clear that once the protection period for a new civilization is over, the Universe Human Alliance will treat everyone equally, and its protection for us will also be withdrawn."

"Yes, once the deadline arrives, I will leave." Tiano nodded.

"Our Blue Star civilization hopes to obtain the friendship of your family, Tiano." Angus said, "For this, our Blue Star civilization is willing to pay 50% of the mineral deposits of the entire solar system."

"My family doesn't look down on that."

Tiano shook his head with a smile.

Angus's expression changed slightly.

Tiano...

…was the highest-status big shot in the universe that the entire Blue Star civilization could contact. Tiano was not strong, but his family was powerful to an unbelievable degree.

"Don't always think about getting protection." Tiano looked at Angus. "Only if you are strong enough and have enough value will you have a chance to attract my family's attention. As for the current Blue Star civilization? It's too weak! A civilization that doesn't even have a hundred cosmic citizens, and not a single decent expert."

Angus smiled obsequiously.

"Of course, although you are weak, the Universe Human Alliance does provide a certain degree of protection to every human civilization." Tiano said, "Don't panic too much. As you integrate into the many civilizations of the universe, I believe your Blue Star civilization will become stronger and stronger."

"For example... the number one genius 'Xu Jingming' selected from among your billions of people has very good talent." Tiano ridiculed himself and said, "At least his talent is much higher than mine."

"How can he compare to you, Envoy?" Angus said immediately.

"My talent in evolution is much worse." Tiano shook his head. "When I was six years old, my parents determined that I had no talent in evolution, so they used external force to make me a Starry Sky lifeform first. After becoming a Starry Sky lifeform, I slowly cultivated. They even arranged for me to work in the Universe Human Alliance. I have successively apprenticed to several teachers, and even a Cosmic Legend personally taught me. Alas, now I am only at the fifth level. My talent is really poor."

Angus kept silent.

Was this showing off?

Any job in the Universe Human Alliance would have many cosmic forces fighting to the death for it.

A Cosmic Legend existence personally teaching him?

"Xu Jingming's talent far surpasses mine." Tiano said, "But I have cultivated for decades, cultivated in many schools of thought, and even received personal guidance from a Cosmic Legend. I am still quite confident in this battle tonight."

Angus smiled obsequiously, "Yes, although Xu Jingming is our Blue Star's number one genius, he is still too young compared to you, Envoy."

"Stop flattering me." Tiano waved his hand. "If there's nothing else, you can leave."

"Yes."

Angus immediately flew back to the spaceship.

In the spaceship, Angus looked at Tiano in the distant starry sky. "How great would it be if Tiano stayed in our Blue Star civilization for another hundred years?"

As long as Tiano was there, it meant that the Universe Human Alliance was monitoring this solar system, and no other cosmic civilization would dare to mess around.

"Unfortunately, the protection period for the new civilization is coming to an end." Angus also felt a sense of urgency.

"I have to practice more too."

Tiano watched the spaceship leave and thought, "These Blue Star experts can cultivate for more than ten hours a day, but I only practice for half an hour every day. Thinking about it, I'm really a bit ashamed." Although he had urged himself time and time again, he was just lazy.

He liked delicious food and enjoyed himself; he just didn't like hard work. This was one of the reasons why he was still only at the fifth level after so-called 'decades' of cultivation. He didn't care about this.

After all, he had become a Starry Sky lifeform at the age of six. He never believed that his talent could allow him to cultivate to the ninth level.

If he couldn't become a ninth level expert, did it make a difference to him whether he was at the third, fifth, or seventh level?

"Whoosh."

Tiano took a step, and the golden patterns on his robe were flowing. With one step, he crossed hundreds of thousands of miles, and after a few steps, he walked back to Yinghuo Star and returned to his spaceship.

Inside the spaceship was a virtual room.

Walking into the room, Tiano hovered slightly, the patterns in the room lit up, and his consciousness immediately entered the virtual world network.

"Enter the Blue Star virtual world." Tiano was very familiar with it and clicked lightly.

"Welcome, Envoy Tiano." The virtual world's voice rang out.

After arriving in the Blue Star virtual world, Tiano's appearance also changed.

The color of his hair and eyebrows, the color of his pupils, had all changed, and his skin had turned black. His aura rapidly changed, dropping from a Starry Sky lifeform to a 'Perfected Planet lifeform'.

"I want to use the genius of this new cosmic civilization to hone myself, and at the same time, I am also honing them." Tiano arrived at his personal space's training ground.

"Tonight's battle is the most important battle I've had on Blue Star. After all, my opponent... is Blue Star civilization's number one genius!" Tiano still attached great importance to it. The number one genius rising from among billions of people in a civilization could not be underestimated.

"Hoo." The power in Tiano's body circulated, and his aura suddenly became much stronger, and his skin glowed with a strange light.

Reaching out, he picked up a long staff, and Tiano also began to cultivate.

...

Time passed, the day passed, and night fell. People all over the world were looking forward to the upcoming finals.
