Chapter 264: Battlefield

Xiao Qi’s loud and clear voice resonated within everybody’s ears. There was no time to rest as they had to begin the test immediately.

Roughly everyone had the same anxious emotions in their heart, but Lan Xuanyu was one of the few that was able to maintain his calm.

At the very least, that was what Qian Lei and Liu Feng felt. By his side, they unknowingly felt an extremely calm feeling.

How lucky they were to have such a great teammate!

A few other students were calm as well, like Lan Mengqin, Dong Qianqiu, and the Yuenen Huihui.

Everyone was issued a locator as well as a small supply bag.

Lan Xuanyu equipped the locator on himself and fiddled with it for a bit. The locator was extremely simple. They were unable to locate any recording device on it but were able to see their position and the basic terrain with a fixed distance around them, which was rather crude and did not include specific topography. It only revealed approximate landforms and distance.

The supply bag was even simpler, with three 500ml bottles of water and two high calorie compression food.

Lin Donghui jumped on the spot and moved his body. At this time, Bing Tianliang, Yu Tian, and Lin Donghui walked over. Dong Qianqiu pulled Lan Mengqin over as well.

Following that, they were sent over via a transit plane. No one knew the exact size of the transit plan but moving out together was naturally the best choice.

The other students had their own gatherings, numbering from three to five in a group, all of them whispering and discussing their own matters.

Lan Xuanyu continued to observe them and realized that all of them had high inner qualities. Upon arriving here, very few of them revealed fear or cowardice and instead had been showing excitement. Their eyes would occasionally turn to the huge mecha as well as the war spaceship in the sky.

Lan Xuanyu was excited as well. It was a real war spaceship! ‘There will be a day where I will become the commander and command a war spaceship and lead a fleet into battle. How glorious will that achievement be!’ he thought, gazing up at the sky.

The distribution was completed quickly and the students were brought to a large transit plane under the guidance of the military.

The army men were expressionless and did not reveal any sympathetic looks despite their age.

The transit planes quickly rose into the sky. Lan Xuanyu was able to see more than 10 soul guidance warships rising together with the transit plane and over 30 mechas.

All of the warships and mechas surrounded the transit plane and protected it as they flew in a single direction.

Lan Xuanyu noticed that they were flying towards the blue sun. But in fact the opposite.

Blue sun, purple sun. Interesting.

The origin energy here was in abundance and completely opposite to the thin air. At least the environment was beneficial for soul masters to recover faster. Many of the participants reckoned that this was the main reason the federation wished to occupy the planet.

In a calm state of mind, Lan Xuanyu carefully observed his surroundings, including the transit plane and the military men, as well as the mechas and soul guidance warships outside.

They were ordinary ground tasked soul guidance warships and were relatively smaller than the space warships, but much more agile. However, it had speed and altitude limitations. At the most, it was twice as fast as the speed of sound.

Lan Xuanyu lowered his head and looked at the locator on his wrist. On it was the accurate point of the base they were at and the distance he was away from it.

The plane flew extremely fast and covered over 100 kilometers in just 10 minutes.

He could tell that they were flying at the edge of a desert and arrived at a mountainous area with complicated terrain by looking out the windows. There were even plants that they had never seen before. The majority of the plants were blue and purple in color.

After another 10 minutes, they passed over the mountainous area and had covered over 200 kilometers. Lan Xuanyu was speechless.

‘Returning to the base in three days? Isn’t that a fool’s dream? We have to cover the entire mountain area. It will be fine if there are no enemies, but if there are…’

As his thoughts arrived at this point, rumbling sounds suddenly came out from the outside. All of the students immediately moved to the windows to have a look.

A battle had already begun in the air!

There were over a 100 birdlike creatures that were launching attacks on them.

Every single one of these creatures had two pairs of wings, which were five meters broad when fully expanded. Their lanky bodies were mostly made up of their wings with slightly larger heads and abdomens also present. They were not fast but were able to unleash purplish red light auras from their beaks like soul guidance rays.

But the army seemed to be used to these weird beasts. The mechas ahead converged with heavy plated shields that unleashed soul guidance energy and transformed into a large energy shield that blocked the weird birds’ attacks. At the same time, they were able to unleash soul guidance cannons and rays to counterattack the attacks.

Two soul guidance warships that guarded the flanks also attacked the weird birds.

The birds looked to have extremely thick skin but the might of the soul guidance rays and cannons were not ordinary. Very quickly, over 10 of the weird birds were killed before the others began to start retreating.

Lan Xuanyu realized that a few mechas had actually flown towards where the weird bird beasts were killed.

“Uncle, what are those weird birds? Are there any valuable spoils of wars from their bodies?” Lan Xuanyu looked towards a soldier and asked.

The soldier glanced at him and replied, “We give the simplest names to the monsters here. That was the Big bellied Purple Bird. They are adept at unleashing corrosive venom, which is what the purplish red light was. They have a venom sack in their stomachs and all the living creatures on this planet have a crystal core on their heads. These crystal cores are unique and are the reason the creatures are able to absorb origin energy. It is like the sea of consciousness of soul masters, but it is solidified. If soul masters like us use these crystal cores to assist in our training, it helps to increase our Spiritual Power. So if you guys kill those strange beasts, remember to obtain the crystal core. You can exchange it for contributions back at base.”

Lan Xuanyu rejoiced upon hearing the explanation. ‘A treasure to increase spiritual power? I’ve never heard of such a thing!’

There were too little methods for humans to train their spiritual power and all of such methods were extremely precious. In any ordinary circumstance, spiritual power could only be improved by meditation, some external factors, or age.

And how strong a soul master’s spiritual power was correlated to the strength of the soul master. In a sense, following the development of soul guidance technology, the usage of spiritual power had increased more and more and was no longer inferior to soul power.

For the creatures of the planet to actually produce such a treasure that could raise spiritual power, it is no wonder that the federation viewed this as an important place and thus sent a fleet to hold the ground here.

‘I wonder how far the colonization and development on this planet has gone…’

Lan Xuanyu was not the only intelligent one. After watching the battle, many students had enquired on the situation.

Be it taking the crystal core back to train or exchanging it for contributions, they were both good choices! Upon seeing the opportunity, the majority of students were no longer as afraid of the danger as they were before.

The plane continued to fly for another 45 minutes before finally slowing down. At this point, the locator had indicated that they were already around 500 kilometers away from the base. They had encountered attacks from various types of creatures on the planet, some that could fly and some that could even jump up from the ground. Lan Xuanyu and the others also heard about the names of the strange beasts.

The plane gradually came to a stop as the soul guidance warships and mechas protected the area.

When the plane was around 200 meters above ground, the cabin doors opened and a cold gale suddenly flooded the entire cabin.

“All of you, get down the plane. This is the start of the tes,” one of the officers bellowed.
