Chapter 970: Part 2: Tier-3, 9th Rank - Early Stage
Practice room
It didn’t take long for the unknown beast egg to stabilize its strength. Next, it was time for his breakthrough. He had waited for several days for this moment.
He had thought the unknown beast egg would require more natural energy. And he was right. Fortunately, he had come across the purple vein stone.
The unknown beast egg started giving back the feedback. The feedback energy entered his body.
His physique started to evolve. The cells in his body began to absorb the feedback energy.
He could feel his strength improving as well. It didn’t take long for the limit to break through.

Tier-3, 9th Rank - Early Stage
His body evolved to the next rank. He could feel that his internal organs, bones, veins, and meridians were strengthened.
His muscles had become well toned. His hair had grown longer. It now reached up to the shoulder. More than that, he could feel that his starlight power had improved.
He continued to absorb the energy. The purple veins in the stone ran out and it broke into pieces.
He didn’t stop and continued to use the natural energy to stabilize his strength.
Time passed.
He stabilized his new strength two hours later.
He then stood up and went to the console to turn off the switch. Then the natural energy in the room began to deplete.
It didn’t take long for the natural energy to disappear. He then paid attention to the mental zone. The gate had changed again. The 9th block of the third circle was activated.
Not only that, his overall strength had improved. His vision had improved as well. Though it was small, it was extremely useful.
He then exited the practice room. He went towards the bathroom to take a shower.
20 minutes later,
After coming out, he changed into new, fresh clothes. He checked the time. Another day was gone.
Buzz!
Just then, his device buzzed up. He checked the device and found out that Elder John had sent him a text message.
He then opened the message and read it.
Elder John wanted to see him. Knowing that, he once again changed his clothes. He wore the uniform.
After getting ready, he left the room. Soon, he left the building and went to another building. On the way, he didn’t come across anyone.
He found the place empty.. Everyone had gone for the mission. It appeared he was the one who returned quickly.
After arriving at the office building, he used the elevator to reach Elder John’s place. He exited the elevator and went to Elder John’s office.
He stood before the office room. He then asked for permission to enter. Elder John gave it.
Creak!
He opened the door and entered inside. He saw Elder John sitting behind the desk. Elder John’s gaze immediately fell on him.
He felt the gaze of Elder John seeing through him.
Elder John smiled and said, "I was wondering why you had entered. Now that I see your strength, it appears you had a breakthrough."
Hearing that, Jeremy Night smiled and admitted it.
He said, "I have entered the 9th rank."
John then said, "Good, but you have to leave for the mission again. If you stay here, it will cause people to raise questions."
"Because Elder Sandra gave orders to everyone. All the students have left. Only a few of them have remained, but they have their own situation."
"Some of them are injured. A few others have non-combatant beasts," John explained.
"I will leave for the mission early in the morning," Jeremy replied. He sounded serious. He had returned because of the purple vein stones.
The breakthrough process was a bonus. It was not planned. He then spent a few more minutes there.
After leaving Elder John’s office, he went to the training facility. He decided to adapt his fighting style to his new strength.
When he got there, he saw that the training facility was empty. He could use any of the rooms now. He then entered one of the big rooms where team fight training takes place.
He closed the door. Then, he unsheathed the blade and started executing blade moves. He wanted to push his blade skills further.
It had been some time since he had entered the intermediate stage. His training took him further into the intermediate stage.
But his goal was to enter the advanced stage soon.
He could do a lot more damage to the higher-tier beasts, including the worm beasts.
As time passed, he was totally involved in improving his blade skills. There was a steel puppet in front of him.
Cut!
He did multiple strikes against the steel puppet. He was also practicing distance and control over his blade moves.
Slowly, he felt that his blade skill was reaching its limit. If this went on, he would enter the advanced stage.
He practiced till late at night. Then, he left the training facility.
Early morning,
He entered the wilderness again, wearing the purple dark armor. No other members were here. He then walked into the woods alone.
This time, he changed direction again. Yesterday, he visited the area of the late Tier-7 Royal Lion. This time, he went towards the abandoned valley.
While he was going through the forest, he was using his eye power. His vision had improved further after his breakthrough. He could see a few meters more now.
So far, he hadn’t seen any beasts, or even any Beast Tamers in the vicinity.
Time passed.
He left the area of dense vegetation and entered the semi-barren land a few hours later. His senses were heightened.
He truly had entered the main area of the wilderness. Even if he wanted to go back, it would take a few hours.
He used his eye power to scan the place. He didn’t know why there was an unsettling feeling. His gaze then fell on the ground.
He saw the minute details. Small grains of sand were clearly visible to him. He saw that the grains were not still. They were shaking. But he didn’t feel any tremor here.
Jeremy Night’s expression changed drastically. He knew the worm beast was nearby. That’s why there was a tremor on the surface of the ground.
