“Oh? Several captains of the Hurricane Mercenary Group voluntarily applied to become Night Demon Apostles, and now all of them have completed their transformation.”Qin Tian’s eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.The increase in Night Demon Apostles represented the rapid growth of his subordinate forces.As for the future relationship between Feng Mocuan and those members, he believed Feng Mocuan could handle it well. Voluntarily applied?Li Qi’s eyes flashed; it seemed Feng Mocuan’s breakthrough to the sixth order had given those people quite a shock.“Li Qi, when can you break through to the fifth order?” Qin Tian asked.When he first met Li Qi, he was still a small assassin at the third order, nine stars, but after obtaining the Night Demon Bloodline, Li Qi successfully broke through to the fourth order.Later, Li Qi absorbed a large amount of blood from the blood pool, and due to the awakening of his own Night Demon King Bloodline, Li Qi’s bloodline level was elevated from Bronze-level to Silver-level.With his aptitude strengthened, coupled with the investment of various cultivation resources, Li Qi’s growth was very fast, and he was getting closer and closer to the fifth order.“Within half a year, I am fully confident I can break through to the fifth order,” Li Qi said confidently.“Good, then I’ll wait for your good news.”Qin Tian smiled slightly. Compared to Feng Mocuan, Li Qi, who came from an assassin background, was clearly more suited to the Night Demon Bloodline. At the same time, he also had higher expectations for Li Qi.In the future, Li Qi and the Dark Division he led would definitely become a crucial force by his side.Thinking of this, Qin Tian considered for a moment, then took something out of the Yin space.“Here, another thing for you.”Qin Tian handed the Wind Riding Boots to Li Qi.“Wind Riding Boots, this is a spirit artifact I obtained in the Talent War.”Qin Tian explained the effects of the Wind Riding Boots and a few small tricks to master them. After awakening the Void Dominator, he could freely perform Void Walking, which was equivalent to “teleportation.” Therefore, spirit artifacts like the Wind Riding Boots, which increase speed, were no longer of much use to him.Giving the Wind Riding Boots to Li Qi was also making the best use of them, allowing this agile assassin to possess even more terrifying explosive power.Additionally, as his first Night Demon Apostle, Li Qi had also accompanied him through two events: the Evil God Sacrifice and the journey to Elf Star. He hoped Li Qi could quickly catch up to Feng Mocuan’s pace.Therefore, he was willing to invest °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° more resources in Li Qi.Li Qi took the Wind Riding Boots. When his fingertips touched the cool surface of the boots, an unprecedented warmth surged in his heart. He lowered his head, gazing at the spirit artifact. Faint green wind patterns flowed across the dark boot body, and he could vaguely feel the surging spiritual power contained within.“Master…” He opened his mouth, but found that his usually calm voice was trembling slightly.Night Demon Bloodline, blood pool power, top-tier cultivation techniques, rare martial skills, excellent elixirs, precious spirit artifacts, endless wealth… He had received so much from his Master. And the things he had done for his Master were merely the duties of an Apostle, far from deserving such profound grace.As an assassin who had grown up in the shadows, he was long accustomed to being used as a tool. In his former organization, every mission was a cold command, and every injury could only be licked alone.But when someone treated him with such genuine sincerity, cultivating him without regard for cost, this warmth instead made him feel at a loss.“Alright, no need to be sentimental.”Qin Tian patted Li Qi’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Cultivating you is also so you’ll work harder in the future.Develop the Dark Division well; I’ll need your strength later.”“Your subordinate will…” Li Qi knelt on one knee, his voice low but firm, “go all out and become the sharpest blade in your hand.”In those simple words was a promise heavier than any oath.This kindness of recognition was worth repaying with his entire life.“Mm, I believe you.”Qin Tian pulled Li Qi up and said.“Alright, find an open space to get used to the Wind Riding Boots. Mastering them won’t be easy.”“Yes!”After Li Qi left, Qin Tian also relaxed. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have nothing to do.Yang Fan was handling the company, and as a business novice, he couldn’t offer any good suggestions or ideas.Feng Mocuan managed the mercenary group, and Li Qi managed the Dark Division. Both were elites who had been deeply involved in their respective fields for many years.What was his own field? Oh, right, I think I’m still a student!Only then did Qin Tian remember that his identity was still a student of Xiongying Military Academy, only he had gone from first year to second year.Before the Talent War began, the summer vacation had already ended, and all students had started classes.He had been skipping classes, but no one from the school had contacted him, as if they had forgotten about him.To be honest, his current combat power already exceeded all the teachers in the school, so attending classes no longer held much meaning for him.However, there were still many valuable places in the school.For example, the library. The power of knowledge would never go out of style.He had only been in this world for less than a year, and there were still many knowledge blind spots that needed time to fill.Additionally, the dusty ancient books in the Xiongying Military Academy library could still bring him new insights, especially those records about ancient ruins and wonders of the Star Sea, many of which were exclusive information that could not be bought outside, no matter how much money was spent.And also, the Star Origin Tower.A cultivation ground with high spiritual energy concentration, coupled with the elixirs he had obtained, he would be able to break through to the fourth order, seven stars, in no time.However, his academic credits had been used up, and he would need other means to enter the upper levels of the Star Origin Tower.The next day, Qin Tian returned to campus. The return of the prominent figure caused quite a stir in the school. His classmates in the special operations class were excited, eagerly asking Qin Tian about his experiences during this period.Qin Tian didn’t reveal too much; his affairs were not suitable for these students to know.Afterward, he negotiated a deal with the school leadership. He was willing to exchange a Silver-level martial skill, “Eighteen Hammers of the Storm,” for three months of access to the tenth floor of the Star Origin Tower.The school leadership readily agreed to this.From the school’s perspective, adding a Silver-level martial skill to their martial arts library directly elevated the school’s martial skill reserves by a level. Although it was a less common hammer technique, the Silver-level status was significant.When the news was released, a portion of students would surely be attracted to this hammer technique, switching to it, and also initiating a craze for hammer technique cultivation in the school.Thus, Qin Tian began a peaceful and fulfilling life again: reading in the library in the mornings, cultivating in the Star Origin Tower in the afternoons, and having dinner with a few classmates or Feng Mocuan, Li Qi, and others in the evenings.During this period, he had been constantly on the move, from the Evil God Sacrifice to Elf Star, and then to the Talent War, never stopping. Although his strength had been continuously increasing, his spirit was still somewhat fatigued.And this period of peaceful and fulfilling days felt like a much-needed rain after a long drought, allowing his constantly tense nerves to finally relax.Half a month passed, and Qin Tian noticed that the fierce aura on his brows, formed from repeated killings, was slowly dissipating. The spiritual energy within his body also became more solid and refined during this rest period, and he successfully broke through to the fourth order, seven stars.“So, appropriate relaxation is also a form of cultivation.”One dusk, Qin Tian leaned against the railing on the top floor of the Star Origin Tower, gazing at the sunset in the sky, muttering to himself.Buzz~Just then, his smart wristband vibrated; a call was coming in.Qin Tian raised his hand to look, his expression subtly shifting.He knew he might have to set off again.“Hello, Officer Yan.”
