Gulei Si

In the distance, two figures hovered in the sky. They were Gules and Balaro, who had previously tracked Eder. The two hadn't joined forces with Eder; according to Gules, they were waiting to reap the benefits once the dust settled.

"I'm exhausted, let's go down and rest for a bit," Gules said, flicking her long hair back, revealing a trace of fatigue on her beautiful face.

Balaro looked around. They were above a vast grassland, a farm, lush and green. He liked it.

Beep beep beep

As soon as they landed, their personal terminals emitted a soft sound. "Hmm, 2100 combat power, there's a student here," Gules said in surprise, looking towards the farm.

Balaro said indifferently, "A student? Only 2100 combat power. Let's check it out."

Gules nodded and began to walk slowly towards the farm.

Inside the farm, Lu Yin was troubled.

Advancing from the Initiate Realm to the peak of the Initiate Realm only required a few star energy crystals, but moving from the early Exploration Realm to the peak of the Exploration Realm required hundreds of times more star energy. He had absorbed about one cubic meter of star energy, which had raised his combat power to over 2000. However, a significant portion of the star energy was expelled as impurities. To reach the peak of the Exploration Realm, he would need to absorb at least four more cubic meters of star energy crystals.

Such a large number of star energy crystals, even if he specialized in robbing the strongest students in the academy, might not be enough.

"It seems that reaching the peak of the Exploration Realm in the short term is impossible. Fortunately, a combat power over 2000 is sufficient," Lu Yin murmured, recalling Bailie's strength.

At this moment, Gules and Balaro were approaching.

Lu Yin sensed them and looked outside the farm, staring in surprise at Balaro. What was that? A plant spirit?

"Come out," Gules shouted, flicking her hair arrogantly.

Lu Yin walked out of the farm, staring at Balaro in amazement.

Gules was displeased, "Hey, why are you staring at the man? I was calling you."

Lu Yin pointed at Balaro, "Is he a plant spirit?"

Balaro's eyebrows shot up in anger, "How dare you!" He kicked at Lu Yin. As a top student at the Dayu Empire Space Academy, second only to Gules, his combat power reached 2900. He didn't take Lu Yin, with his mere 2100 combat power, seriously at all.

Lu Yin used his evasion technique to dodge, appearing at Balaro's right side. He pressed a hand to Balaro's abdomen, his voice cold, "Robbery." With that, he unleashed a powerful force from his palm, sending Balaro flying like a cannonball, his body shattering from the impact.

Gules's eyes narrowed, suddenly pulling out a uniquely shaped bow and arrow, aiming at Lu Yin. Lightning roared through the void.

In an instant, Lu Yin sensed danger and dodged with his evasion technique. Arrows whizzed past his ears, and the next moment, the ground trembled, thunder roaring to the sky, and a violent shockwave swept in all directions.

Lu Yin didn't look back because Gules had already aimed her next arrow at him. He reached out to grab Gules. Gules sneered, her body surrounded by lightning. Her exquisite and graceful figure was enveloped in thunder, shaking the surroundings and distorting the air. Lu Yin frowned, unleashed his star palm, and with a bang, two stars exploded. The immense impact barely tore through the lightning, directly attacking Gules's body.

Gules was shocked. She hadn't expected Lu Yin to break through her lightning defense. This was armor given by her brother, rarely broken by anyone in the Exploration Realm. Yet this man shattered it. Gules was sent flying, crashing to the ground, her bow and arrow falling beside her.

"Don't touch her," came a shout from a distance. Balaro knelt on one knee, strange green stripes appearing on his body, spreading like waves. The surrounding green plants began to wriggle. The grass under Lu Yin's feet seemed to come alive, binding him, filled with countless hostile intentions.

Lu Yin was surprised. His body burst with star energy, shattering the plants. He charged at Balaro, raising a hand to strike. Balaro roared, his arms entwined with weeds, striking at Lu Yin. With a bang, the shockwave spread, lifting the ground and kicking up dust. Balaro was sent into the ground by Lu Yin's palm, spitting blood, his arms twisted unnaturally.

"I remember now, you two were also hiding in the capital," Lu Yin said calmly, grabbing Balaro and throwing him towards Gules. He appeared in front of Gules.

At the same time, the local network announced, 'Gules and Balaro have been defeated.'

In the distance, Eder was shocked, "Even Gules lost?"

On the grass, Gules glared at Lu Yin, "You're that interstellar bandit."

Lu Yin frowned, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm a good person."

"Bullshit!" Gules swore, her language crude.

Lu Yin was surprised, "A beauty swearing so fluently, quite a temper."

Gules snorted.

Balaro glared at Lu Yin, "Kid, I warn you not to touch her. Her brother is Goulbah, one of the strongest of the younger generation in the Dayu Empire. If you harm her, you'll have nowhere to hide in this universe."

Lu Yin pursed his lips, "I said I'm a good person. I don't hurt people," he said, while taking Gules's spatial ring, smearing a bit of her blood on it to open it, and started searching for star energy crystals.

Gules and Balaro watched in shock. This was a good person? His actions were too practiced, clearly the work of an expert!

"Hey, stop that. Tell me what you want, and I'll give it to you. Don't rummage through a girl's stuff," Gules shouted, kicking at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin rolled his eyes, "A bunch of useless stuff," he muttered. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and his breathing quickened. What did he see? A pile of star energy crystals, at least two cubic meters. Lu Yin looked at Gules in astonishment, "You're rich."

Gules gritted her teeth, her face red with anger, "You bastard."

Lu Yin tossed the spatial ring back to Gules and started searching Balaro's.

Balaro remained silent. This guy was just robbing, not killing.

Although Balaro's spatial ring didn't have as many star energy crystals as Gules's, it wasn't much less. Combined, they had at least two cubic meters of star energy crystals. What wealthy people!

Lu Yin was very satisfied, "You're great. Until next time," he said, ready to leave.

Gules shouted, "Bastard, leave your name."

"Call me Seventh Brother," Lu Yin waved and started to fly away.

Gules, furious, suddenly had an idea, "Wait, want more star energy crystals?"

Lu Yin, who had just flown into the air, immediately descended upon hearing this, looking at Gules, "What do you mean?"

Gules smiled slyly, "Follow us, and I'll take you to rob."

Lu Yin was surprised.

Balaro's face twitched. Here she goes again. Gules never accepts losses. She's good in every way except that she can't bear to lose. Whenever she does, she drags others down with her, never being the most disadvantaged.

Lu Yin looked at Gules strangely, "You, take me to rob? Do I look like an idiot?"

Gules snorted, "Believe it or not, you don't have a personal terminal and can't find other students. Those students will attack the capital in at most seven days. How many can you bump into by chance in seven days? I lead the way, and you'll find one every time."

Lu Yin sneered, "What if you lead me into a trap?"

Gules raised her head, "I, Gules, am not that kind of person. Ask around, everyone knows about Gules from the Space Academy, my reputation and trustworthiness. My brother is Goulbah. Would I harm you?"

Balaro was speechless.

Lu Yin squinted his eyes, thinking. With his current strength, even if he was surrounded, he could escape, "Alright, you lead the way, but I'll confiscate your spatial ring and return it after we're done."

Gules gritted her teeth, "Fine."

Half a day later, the three flew north. In the sky, Lu Yin asked, "I've always wanted to ask, is he a plant spirit?"

Balaro was furious, "I was born on a pure plant planet. Everyone on our planet is like this. Do you have a problem with that?"

Lu Yin was amazed, "The universe is vast, full of all kinds of people."

Balaro turned his head away. This bastard's words sounded like insults.

Gules rolled her eyes, "What's the big deal? You've met Bailie. On their third gravity planet, the tallest is only 1.6 meters, with an average of 1.2 meters. He's considered tall, rich, and handsome there. There are also people with scales covering their bodies, some with four arms, some as tall as dozens of

 meters. There are all kinds of strange shapes."

"You're not a space student?" Balaro suddenly asked, looking at Lu Yin suspiciously.

Lu Yin replied, "Of course not. I'm from Earth."

Gules and Balaro's eyes widened in extreme indignation. They had been robbed by a native.

Half an hour later, Gules excitedly exclaimed, "Here they come, two students."

Lu Yin was excited, glancing at Gules. This woman was even more excited than he was, "Hey, bastard, how do we split them up?"
