“I will tell you the details when you return to the Southern Continent, and yes, I need your help...” Bet paused. “Stardragon first promised to render their help, and the reason was you taking part in the battle of the Tedramira River. I owe you a favor.”
“Just give me a few small benefits.”
Betughed. “This is exactly what I expected from you, let’s talk more when you return to Southern Continent.”
After ending the phone call, Han Xiao read the reward detail and triggered the mission.

<i>Without the special reward, it is just an ordinary task. I’ll just get it done and over with. </i>Han Xiao nodded.
The transport ne took off with Han Xiao after a refueling. A few hourster, they arrived in a new novice vige. It was not easy to find the airport in the wilderness. However, as the gyroscopic engines were equipped on the wings of the transport aircraft to provide vertical lifting power, it was safe for the ne to take off on the runway. The pilot was a veteran as well.
If Han Xiao did not have the discounts as an old customer, the price of chartering flights would have been several times more expensive. This connection was very important as it saved him a lot of money.
After using the Electromaic Hover-boots for a while after he alighted from the ne, Han Xiao soon reached the novice vige. The yers there were doing their missions passionately, and upon seeing the ck Phantom, they were stunned and gushed toward him.
...
Poseidon, a member of the Guild of Gods, hummed a song as he scanned through the forum posts. President Jupiter did not bother too much about the Rank A mission, and the development of the guild was on the right track.
In the second issue of Gxy Times, the group had invited a beautiful e-sports yer, the head of the rainstorm club, Rainy Kim. She shared her experience on the show and introduced Stardragon.
She had joined the Tedramira River Battle, so she revealed some information, including news of the Germinal Organization. After Jupiter learned that the Germinal troops from the Southern Continent had disappeared, he lost hope for the A-rank mission. Dark Crow Valley Base had also been removed; thus, he concentrated on coordinating the guild and expanded toward Southern Continent’s side.
In the second episode of Gxy Times, professional yers from differents were invited for an interview, and these yers had joined different camps on the map, allowing the yers to attain more knowledge of the differents. The conflict between the Six Nations and the Germinal Organization revealed the main plot to the yers of Aquamarine.
Since the start, Poseidon had never approved of the Germinal A-rank mission; he felt that it would distract the group. Fortunately, Jupiter turned his back and gave up on the A level mission. In turn, the professional guild saw this mission and allowed the yers to challenge this difficult task, thus handing over the task to the team.
After the discussion, they selected a yer from Andrea Maind to find the Germinal Organization and trigger the A-rank mission. The guild also provided resources and intelligence support to help the yerplete the task. If anyone seeded, the guild could have one more potential ount, and there no losses even if they do not seed.
The yers were the face of the guild, and their status was higher than that of the guild. The first-line yer was also famous as Poseidon asked him for a few signatures, which made him very happy.
The guild was pleased with the A-rank mission they triggered during the novice period and gave away some prizes.
The guild had passed the unlucky period, and Poseidon was in a good mood.
Speaking of the development of the guild, the ck Phantom could not go unmentioned. Since most of them were born in the Southern Continent, with the support of the ck Phantom, they benefited in one way or another. The ck Phantom only appeared in the Southern Continent, which gave the yers a huge advantage, and the guild benefited a lot.
Many opponents were born in other continents, and with the guild in front, the situation was very good.
Looking at the jealousy and envy that the old yer had, the members of the guild had a sense of superiority.
Suddenly, the forum started having lots of new posts published by Aquamarine. The content could be summarized in one sentence.
“ck Phantom ising to the Western Continent!”
Poseidon snorted and hurriedly clicked and viewed a post. After reading it, he began sweating.
<i>Don’t tell me ck Phantom is running around every single Novice Vige.</i>
If this was to be true, everyone simply had to wait patiently, and the advantages of being in a guild would vanish.
Poseidon hurriedly informed the president and other core members in the channel. They were equally shocked.
Jupiter was extremely calm. “We can’t say things like that. We learned some skills earlier than others and were able to finish quests much earlier. There are bound to be some advantages for joining us. NPC’s actions can’t be controlled. Don’t try to force things.”
Upon hearing what the president had said, everyone calmed down. Poseidon nced at the forum again and suddenly screamed, “What the...e look at this post!”
“What?” Jupiter doubted the post. It was a screenshot of Han Xiao’s skill list, and the focus was on an [Energy Training Method]. Seeing the skill’s effect, everyone was stunned.
“Magical!”
Energy was a key attribute. It directly affectedbat strength. And with the novice yers’ energy being so poor, they were usually unable to support an Esper’s consumption. Espers needed this skill for sure!
Jupiter was an Esper. He turned jealous and suddenly realized a serious problem. “Wait a moment. When we were in the Southern Continent, ck Phantom did not teach us this skill!”
Everyone stood silent.
Could it have been that when the ck Phantom was going to the Novice Vige, he would give better things to them? In that case, wouldn’t yers in the Southern Continent be disadvantaged?
<i>This isn’t advantageous at all! It’s way more unlucky!</i>
Among the core members of Guild of Gods, there was a yer named Eggtama.
<i>This unlucky feeling... Why is it so familiar...? It’s returning! Everything is returning!</i>
...
On the forum, Western Continent yers were as if they were dogs that had eaten Spring medicine, jumping up and down, posting their videos, and showing off. They, who had been always on Southern Continent for so long, finally had something to show off. It was now the Southern Continent’s yers’ turn to suffer. What they originally thought was exclusively theirs was actually given to everyone.
In particr, seeing the new skills taught by ck Phantom, the [Energy Training Method], the Western Continent yers were extremely overjoyed and made the Southern Continent yers very tired and ufortable.
What goes aroundes around, and it was time for the yers on the Southern Continent to watch in jealousy.
“Such luck, why didn’t ck Phantom have this skill before?”
“I want to learn it so much.”
“Isn’t he a mechanic instructor? He has such awesome skills! Even though I’m an Esper, I’m tempted, too!”
Beyond the posts that were either showing off orining, ck Phantom appeared in the Western Continent, and this had gotten all the yers to start guessing. He seemed to aim to go through all the novice viges. Could ck Phantom actually have been the official novice guide? But other novices did not have one. The guesses were endless. Furthermore, there were yers from other novicesing over to Aquamarine’s forum toin of unfairness. The novice guide broke the levelled ying field for many, but their voices would soon be overwhelmed by the everyone else.
yers from the Northern Continent and Andrea were the ones that greatly supported this statement. Looking at the movements of ck Phantom, they could very well be the next one, and they could not wait to bring themselves in front to the ck Phantom.
<i>Do you see the huge anticipation in these small eyes of ours? Come on, hurry!</i>
The Western Continent’s yers were almost celebrating like it was a festival; some of them who were about to leave the novice vige to explore the map immediately reverted back to where they were upon hearing the news of ck Phantom. They hurriedly returned to their viges, waiting for the ck Phantom’s arrival in great excitement.
[Energy Training Method] became a craze. Not only were some yers wanting to change ss, even Esper came to learn the skill. While the asking price was very high, this magical skill was worth selling one’s every asset for!
Esper yers desperately needed to increase their Energy, and to them, the [Energy Training Method] was like a Viagra pill. It allowed them tost much longer, and the difference was between that of a three minute and three second gap. Whilst short, the concept was totally different. This was the difference between one and many, between Heaven and Earth!
