Looking at the blank, transparent crystals scattered all over the ground, Wang Zheng was disappointed once again.

Because at this moment, his total spiritual energy had exceeded 100,000, reaching an astonishing level.

However, he still did not see any new text appear at the bottom of the data panel.

Wang Zheng was immediately enraged and furious, and he started cursing:

"Damn it, I'll just keep saving. Anyway, there's nothing else I need to spend money on right now. I really don't believe that you can't save up enough points to unlock a skill worth 5,000 points!"

At this moment, Wang Zheng was very determined. He planned to not only maximize his materialization progress during this training, but also at least develop this new ability.

...

As the morning sun once again cast its light upon the earth, Wang Zheng was already on his way.

Today, as usual, he went to the Adventurers' Guild, but apart from some of the same old news, there was no new or noteworthy information.

However, Wang Zheng didn't care too much about this. Anyway, there were still quite a few beast tribes marked on the map, and the Adventurers' Guild only had long-term quests available, so he could just wait patiently.

It can only be said that the Lianshan Adventure Team truly deserves to be one of the top teams in the area, as the information covered on the marked map is extremely comprehensive.

Old Man Chu had been missing for a day. Wang Zheng went to knock on the door in the morning, but found that he still hadn't returned. Originally, Wang Zheng wanted to ask about the Peacock Demon King's power situation.

Because he's heading north today.

Because the area south of Tengchong City is far from the Demon King's territory and has a major military town in between, many Awakened Ones dare to venture into this area.

This means that unless these gregarious beasts are exceptionally powerful or have an absolute advantage in terrain, they cannot survive here, let alone build nests here.

In other words, within this short distance to the south, there are no longer any exotic beasts that can satisfy Wang Zheng's hunting needs.

Although there are still a few points marked on the map, the tribes are all very small, and the so-called communal living groups consist of only a few to a few dozen exotic beasts.

Such a low-level beast pack is so small that even ordinary adventurers dare to try their luck, which clearly doesn't meet Wang Zheng's hunting requirements.

After Wang Zheng greeted the young man on duty, he lined up to leave the city.

After all, it's a military-controlled area, so it's understandable that the management is a bit strict, especially now when there are so many people.

Along the way, many adventurers leaving the city pointed at Wang Zheng and whispered among themselves.

"This is the expert who captured the queen ant and wiped out the bloodthirsty golden ant colony a few days ago. He looks fair-skinned and gentle, not like he has any fighting ability."

"They're probably from big cities, maybe they have family connections and are here to get some experience."

...

They were speaking the local dialect, which Wang Zheng couldn't understand. Of course, even if he could understand, there was nothing he could do; he couldn't very well beat someone up in front of the officer on duty.

Or perhaps, is it to prove to them that I am very strong?

Forget it. Wang Zheng actually wants everyone to think he's weak. Isn't it better to feign weakness and use it for a sneak attack than to confront him head-on?

However, the soldiers around him naturally knew Wang Zheng's strength, and their reprimands silenced the adventurers.

Wang Zheng didn't think much of it. Once he left the city, he immediately summoned the Crimson Cloud and sped northward, quickly disappearing into the horizon, leaving a group of adventurers who had just been envious of him dumbfounded.

At this point, no more sour grapes jumped out to complain: "It's just that it can fly, that's not much of a skill."

After speeding along, Wang Zheng took out a map and looked at it before arriving at his first destination: Eagle Mountain.

The terrain here is steep, with cliffs and precipices everywhere, making it extremely dangerous.

According to the markings on the map, a group of fourth-rank tiger eagles inhabit this area. Although the name is strange, it is not because the beast looks like a tiger.

It's not because the tiger eagle is large and strong, with a wingspan of tens of meters. Its wings are very powerful, and when it flaps its wings, it causes sand and stones to fly and strong winds to rise. Moreover, it flies very fast.

With its pair of steel claws, it can hunt tigers and tear cheetahs apart, making it an absolute powerhouse in the sky.

Moreover, unlike ordinary birds, they do not live in family units, but retain the custom of tribal living.

They often live together in groups of more than a dozen high-quality exotic beasts.

As fourth-grade exotic beasts, they have already awakened their wisdom and gained the ability to think. Once they encounter an enemy, they will mobilize their entire clan and even pursue them for thousands of miles, fighting to the death.

The mountain is named Eagle Mountain because a powerful awakened individual once fought his way out of a flock of eagles and escaped alive.

Wang Zheng now has a good impression of these vengeful and daring beasts.

If everyone were as cowardly and timid as the green-skinned frogman, how would Young Master Wang ever accumulate spiritual energy?

Although the mountains here are towering, the cliffs are steep, and the mountain roads are very difficult to travel, it is not a problem for Wang Zheng.

Moreover, the tiger eagle is known for its great strength and teamwork in hunting; its individual attack power is not particularly strong, and it has no special abilities.

Wang Zheng naturally wouldn't let go of such a high-level beast with a violent temper and great strength, so this was his first stop.
