“What about it? Have you joined?”

Hardly had Su Ping opened his eyes and his consciousness returned to his shop when he heard Garland’s nervous question.

Su Ping looked at him and remembered everything that happened during his first encounter with the circle just then. He asked with twitching lips, “Now that you’ve left the circle, is it possible for you to reach out to any of the members?”

“Well...”

Garland glanced at him and said, “O’Neil is the only person that I’m close to from that circle. You didn’t see him just now?”

“No, what’s his nickname?”

“Zeus.”

“...”

Su Ping was at a loss for words for a long time, before he asked, “Is the law he grasped from the lightning class?”

“No, it’s a fire class law.”

“...Then, is his constitution of the lightning class?”

“No, it’s also fire class.”

“...”

...

Su Ping finally allowed Garland to leave, as there was no longer a need to keep him under custody.

Apart from the Alliance of Stars, Garland had also sold his shares and other fixed assets; he had transferred all his money to Su Ping as soon as he could.

The money gathered almost reached a trillion!

Su Ping was further reassured about the lavish resources available to Star State experts. Garland didn’t have his own territory; the master of the Ryan family—through the taxes collected on Rhea—could probably earn much more than that every year.

It was quite normal.

While living on a prosperous planet, the richest man in a continent had much more savings.

After all, the GDP of an entire planet could be astonishing.

Unfortunately, that money couldn’t be converted into energy points, and could only be saved in his back account.

Su Ping intended to invest the money on the Blue Planet’s development and fulfill his responsibility as a lord.

Garland was delighted and surprised when he was set free; he didn’t expect Su Ping to release him just like that.

Their exchange had been too beneficial for Su Ping, after demanding too many things for the young man’s release. It was definitely not a rational choice to let a Star State enemy walk away.

Is this guy simply fearless, or is he naive?

Garland felt he had been reborn when he left the shop and embraced the sunlight again. He looked back at the shop with a troubled face.

However, his gratitude was instantly gone when he thought of his losses; he quickly tore space apart and flashed away.

...

At the store.

Su Ping looked at Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong who were currently idling in the store and said, “I’m going to train the pets. Since you’re free, you can go out and become familiar with the planet’s environment. This is a tier-3 planet of the Federation; you should know more about the Federation in general.”

Tang Ruyan pouted her cheeks. “I don’t want to go out. I want to train.”

“Suit yourself,” Su Ping said.

“Master, I want to study too,” said Zhong Lingtong cutely.

Su Ping looked at her. There wasn’t much knowledge on training that he could teach her, unless he simply imparted the knowledge to her. The downside of such an option would be having her forever in his shadow; she would never catch up to him. It would be pointless.

Since she had been his student for such a long time, Su Ping wanted her to grow more brilliant than himself, so that he could be proud of her.

“Wait.”

Su Ping took out the Lord Badge, which had already been adjusted to Rhea.

He made some queries about how to become a trainer on that planet.

Information popped up moments after. He found a lot of classified information, thanks to his lord status’ permissions.

Some of the information had to be unlocked with money; Su Ping paid without hesitation, as he had just earned a trillion.

He was also certain that the taxes collected on the Blue Planet every year would be much greater than that when it turned into an advanced planet in the future.

Taxes could produce enormous sums. Income taxes, expense taxes, corporate taxes, and many others could reach astronomical numbers.

Su Ping took a few minutes to read all of the information.

He thought for a moment and said to Zhong Lingtong, “If you want to learn, I suggest you get to know the training methods used in the Federation. All the training you learned on the Blue Planet is underdeveloped in comparison. It’s best for you to catch up with the more advanced technologies available.

“You have two options. The first one is to apply for the local Trainers Association as a part-time student and part-time worker. The second option is to ask another trainer to teach you.”

The latter part left Zhong Lingtong stunned. She quickly said, “No, I don’t want another teacher. You’re my only teacher!”

“By teacher, I mean some sort of professor who loves teaching students. You only need to attend their classes. I can pay the tuition fees for you,” said Su Ping.

Zhong Lingtong instantly realized what was going on and relaxed. She thought she had done something wrong and Su Ping didn’t want her as a student anymore.

She didn’t know how she could survive without Su Ping in that foreign place.

“Sir, I want to apply for the Trainers Association as a part-time worker. Then, I’ll attend the masters’ classes with the money I earn. You’ve taught me training skills and I haven’t returned anything to you yet. I don’t feel comfortable taking more money from you.”

Zhong Lingtong bit her lips and spoke with firmness showing on her round face.

“That works too. Come to me anytime if you don’t have enough money. I have more money than I can possibly spend right now.” Su Ping chuckled.

Zhong Lingtong was relieved after he accepted the request. She nodded quickly.

Tang Ruyan rolled her eyes and asked, “My training is also expensive. Can you give me some money?”

“I can’t give you any, but I can lend you some,” said Su Ping after glancing at her.

Tang Ruyan was infuriated. “Why are you only supportive of her? I get that she’s your student, but I am your employee. You’ve never paid me any salary!”

“You’re just a temp. You think you’d get paid?”

“You—You are a leech!”

“I don’t suck the blood of the poor.”

Tang Ruyan was mad, but she had to compromise in the end. She said, “Fine, consider it a loan then. I’ll repay you after we return to the Blue Planet, or when I grow stronger and make money. You just robbed a Star State expert blind and earned a lot. Lend me ten billion for starters!”

“You are truly greedy.” Su Ping rolled his eyes but didn’t decline her. “Spend the money wisely; it wasn’t easy for me to rob someone.”

Tang Ruyan felt warm when Su Ping did give her the money, but she didn’t act gently right away. She snorted and said, “Training is always expensive, and I don’t know the prices in the Federation yet. I’ll return the money to you if I don’t use it up. I’m going to check the training methods available first.”

“Do whatever you like,” Su Ping said.

Once he made arrangements for the two, Su Ping asked them to become acquainted with the environment and find something to do. He also asked them to contact him if they ever got in trouble.

Su Ping closed the door and went to the pet room once they left the shop; he was ready to start training.

He wasn’t planning on going to the Demigod Burial this time, mainly because he had been to most of the dangerous places in the Demigod Burial.

He had left marks and his name on the dangerous places and had recently become a celebrity of sorts, even more famous than some of the Major Gods.

After all, a man who often explored dangerous places would easily attract attention.

However, nobody had found out he was from another world because Joanna had been helping cover up his identity.

“I’m not going to your hometown this time,” said Su Ping to Joanna.

Joanna was getting ready to leave when she heard that; she felt disappointed. She then replied, “Okay.”

Su Ping didn’t explain. While the Demigod Burial was a great and advanced cultivation site according to the system, he felt he was getting used to the places he could go to.

He was already too familiar with the ways that the beasts fought and how the energy circulated; he wanted to go to a strange place in search of different stimulations.

Even though he might run into peak Star State beasts in those places and get killed, he would have the chance to tap into more of his potential with a life-and-death pressure.

He had already become used to calmly locating his opponent’s flaws during battle in order to secure a victory!

“Void Debris!”

Su Ping found a high level option in the cultivation sites’ list.

It meant that the strongest creatures found there were beyond the Ascendant State.

Their power would be just like that of the four Superior Gods in the Demigod Burial who were stronger than Joanna!

Su Ping checked the information of the cultivation site.

Void Debris: This is the tomb of a War God who died in the ninth eon. The sky cried and the void was shattered when he died!

His body was hidden in the boundless void. Countless people have looked for his body and the artifacts he left. The place they searched gradually became a forbidden land.

Many void beasts live in the area. Be cautious if you want to go there!

Void beasts?

Su Ping’s eyes glittered. He was hoping to get to know the mysteries of space better. Those void beasts would be his perfect sparring partners!

As the name implied, those beasts lived in the void and were congenitally capable of wandering in the secondary space. They fed on the energy found in the void; even their young ones could perform space skills.

For instance, Su Ping’s Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon had a void beast bloodline and had great talent in spatial skills. Its kind was able to reach the Void after they became adults.

Breaking through the bottleneck and establishing a bridge was as simple as having food and water for those dragons. It was an instinct etched in his DNA.

“System, when was the ninth eon? I’ve seen plenty of cultivation sites that were left from that age,” Su Ping asked in his heart.

“The ninth eon is the closest eon to the modern days,” replied the system indifferently.

“What was before the ninth eon? The eighth eon?”

After a moment of silence, the system said, “That is still too far away from you. I’ll tell you the answer when you reach the Star State.”

Su Ping didn’t know what to say, but he wasn’t really curious; it was only a casual question. Still, there seemed to be more secrets behind this, considering the system’s reaction.

He summoned the pets to be trained. He then took the Little Skeleton, the Dark Dragon Hound and the pets to the Void Debris.

At this point, the ticket fee to the advanced cultivation sites was almost negligible for him.

However, he could still spend a lot of money on resurrections. After all, he often died more than once on each trip, unless he stayed idle in one place.

He had to be reckless and actively look for beasts to get the most out of the training and exercising. As a result, he often got killed dozens of times.

Whoosh!

A space vortex appeared and drew Su Ping in.

Teleporting dizziness came over him again. When Su Ping opened his eyes, he felt the loss of balance as if he were in a quickly descending elevator; he swiftly unleashed astral power to stabilize himself.

The feeling of descent was gone. Then, Su Ping finally found that he was in the middle of the void; he had really been falling rapidly!

There wasn’t a single place where he could set foot on; darkness and chaos were everywhere.

Is this... the tertiary space? Su Ping looked around. He came to this conclusion based on the heavy and restricting pressure he felt on his skin, but the place was different from the tertiary space he knew, which was completely dark. There was a certain glimmer in the Void Debris.

He looked at the light source, only to discover a dim light frozen in the void.

The light radiated brilliantly and was obviously divine.

Su Ping’s eyes widened in shock. The dim light was clearly a divine power. It looked like an attack that had been released and frozen there.

Several shadows were crawling next to the divine power. Their hindquarters looked like those of a spider, with many pointy legs, but their forearms and head resembled those of a lizard. There were wrinkles on their napes, and they could crane their heads easily.

Void beasts?

Su Ping focused his attention and instantly sensed that all the void beasts had a Fate State cultivation.

The void beasts also noticed him and turned around. Just as if he were a stranger who had broken into their home, they slowly crawled over to Su Ping with hostile intent.

Su Ping raised his finger and pointed at them without hesitation.

Boom!

The power of laws was unleashed; a rumble of thunder echoed in the void where no sound could be transmitted. It wasn’t a physical sound; it was one that resonated in the soul.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The closest void beasts had been ripped apart before they could even approach him.

Even though the place was their territory, the power of laws’ suppression was of an insurmountable higher level.

Once he finished the beasts off, Su Ping attracted their bodies over and took out their cores, which contained a pure void energy.

Those cores would surely be highly nutritional for his White-Scaled Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon.

Su Ping stored the cores in the system space and then flew towards the frozen divine light.

The divine light was releasing a horrifying pressure, but still, it had been consolidated. The power and method that froze it was beyond Su Ping’s current understanding.

It was exactly at this moment when ripples were spread out in the void. Then, the divine light disappeared into a deeper space beyond the tertiary space.

The surrounding void trembled once the divine light vanished. Su Ping suddenly saw cracks in front of his eyes. He saw the fourth and even the fifth space!
