Lieyang Valley Base is the second largest base on Alpha 7 Star.Important supplies are stored in the first and second bases.When Qin Tian confirmed the exchange, five secret manuals—Shadow Touch, Corrosion Hand, Fighting Skills Explained, Swordsmanship Explained, and Frost Meditation Technique—immediately appeared in his personal backend, while Lingyuan Pill, black frost blade, and Hidden Kill special bullets were delivered to his room two hours later.Qin Tian first opened the iron box containing black frost.What met his eyes was an ancient scabbard, predominantly black, made of hard ebony wood. Its surface was meticulously polished, smooth as a mirror, clearly reflecting the surroundings. The ebony grain was fine and uniform, like natural paintings, adding a touch of natural beauty to the scabbard.The hilt was wrapped in high-grade black shark skin, delicate yet tough to the touch, providing an excellent grip.Clang~As black frost was unsheathed, it was like a black lightning bolt flashing before ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) his eyes. A sharp, chilling aura rushed forth, making his skin tingle with pain.“What a good blade!”Qin Tian couldn't help but exclaim. A famous blade truly lives up to its name; just from its appearance, it surpasses other combat blades by a mile. From the scabbard, hilt, to the blade itself, every detail showcased the blacksmith's meticulous design.To be honest, he wouldn't dare to casually use black frost blade on a normal day. He might break someone else's beloved weapon before even exerting much force.The combat blade was sheathed.Qin Tian opened the small box containing the Lingyuan Pill.Inside the box, ten white jade porcelain bottles were neatly arranged.Each porcelain bottle contained 20 Lingyuan Pills.Qin Tian directly poured out one pill and swallowed it, then sat cross-legged, entering a state of cultivation.Initially, the absorption rate of psionic factors was the same as before.But soon, as the Lingyuan Pill began to take effect in his body, he felt as if a water pump had appeared inside him, frantically drawing in psionic factors, with an efficiency several times greater than before.“So good~”Qin Tian couldn't help but groan. The efficacy of the Lingyuan Pill was even more powerful than he had imagined. No wonder one pill cost 100 military merit points; it was expensive, but it was indeed worth the price.Two hours later, the medicinal effect of the Lingyuan Pill gradually faded. The duration wasn't long, but his psionic energy had almost doubled.At this rate, he would be able to open his second star aperture and break through to First Order Two Star in less than five days.“No wonder ordinary people can never catch up to the children of aristocratic families. Regardless of their talent, just the cultivation resources alone can leave ordinary people far behind.”Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh with emotion. A small Lingyuan Pill had such efficacy, while those bloodline family descendants enjoyed guidance from famous teachers from a young age, with resources poured into them, and various elixirs and rare materials thrown at them without regard for cost. Even an idiot could be piled up into a master.What's more, bloodline martial artists are inherently exceptionally talented, and coupled with their advantage in resources, their class status would become even more stable.In this world, it was much harder for ordinary people to make a name for themselves than in his previous life.After cultivation, Qin Tian lay on the bed, studying other secret manuals.Shadow Touch, Corrosion Hand, Fighting Skills Explained, Swordsmanship Explained, Frost Meditation Technique....In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.Training ground.A large hand, emanating black energy, struck the chest of the training dummy. With a bang, the dummy shook violently, and the special skin on its chest hissed and rapidly turned black and festered, as if splashed with sulfuric acid.“Hiss, your move is too terrifying.”Xiao Yunlong walked up to Qin Tian and saw the faint metallic sheen beneath the dummy's skin, he couldn't help but gasp.The dummy's skin was much tougher than a normal person's, yet even so, it couldn't withstand the erosion of Corrosion Hand.If that landed on a person, the scene alone would be chilling.This Qin Tian fellow, he was truly becoming more and more monstrous.“It's alright!”Qin Tian withdrew his hand with satisfaction. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't be able to cause obvious damage to the dummy's skin with just Corrosion Hand, but if he added highly toxic corrosion to the move, the effect would immediately become apparent.For the past half month, he had spent all his time cultivating, except for eating and sleeping.Now, Shadow Touch and Corrosion Hand had just begun to show results, but it would probably take some time before he could skillfully use them in actual combat.Frost Meditation Technique was fully mastered.After each day's psionic cultivation, he would meditate for an hour to enhance his mental strength.He had read half of Fighting Skills Explained and Swordsmanship Explained.These two courses contained a lot of practical content; simply reading them once wasn't enough. They required careful study and the application of various details from the courses in daily training and actual combat.Fortunately, there were many battle-hungry superhumans around him who were happy to spar and exchange pointers with him. Over the past half month, his fighting skills had advanced by leaps and bounds, and his swordsmanship had also improved further.“By the way, what's your current rank? I feel like your psionic energy is much denser than before.” Xiao Yunlong couldn't help but ask.Qin Tian smiled slightly: “First Order Three Star.”“Three Star! You're Three Star so quickly!”Xiao Yunlong was dumbfounded. One must know that he was Qin Tian's guide in psionic cultivation, and he was the one who taught Qin Tian the Psionic Awakening Technique.From awakening his psionic energy to today, in less than a month, Qin Tian had actually crossed three realms and reached First Order Three Star.Even with the aid of Lingyuan Pills, this cultivation speed was terrifyingly strong.“Qin Tian, Yunlong, come here for a moment.”Just then, Qin Dadi's voice came from afar, with a hint of surprise in his tone.Qin Tian turned his head and saw Qin Dadi walking quickly towards the arena. Besides Liu Zhaozhao, there were also five men with him.Qin Tian and Xiao Yunlong recognized a few of them: Dai Xianghe, the commander of the 319th Regiment; Li Jie, the adjutant; Raymond, the recruit instructor; and Jia Xiu, the director of the Special Operations Management Office.The last person was a stranger, but from their standing positions, he was the central figure.Qin Tian and Xiao Yunlong jumped off the arena and went to greet them.“Qin Tian, this is Officer Yan from the Seventh Bureau of the Special Operations Management Office.”Qin Dadi pointed at the unfamiliar man and said, “This time, for your sake, Officer Yan traveled for half a month by spaceship to get from Silver Gray Star to Alpha 7 Star.”Upon hearing this, Qin Tian stood at attention and performed a standard military salute.“Greetings, Chief!”“Hello, Qin Tian.”Yan Qing showed a smile on his face and said in a gentle tone, “It's a pleasure to witness another outstanding talent emerge. My name is Yan Qing, and I'm from the Seventh Bureau of the Special Operations Management Office in the Qingmu Star Region. My main responsibility is the recruitment of special talents.”“Now, on behalf of the Seventh Bureau, I will announce Senior Sergeant Qin Tian's promotion and transfer.”“Firstly, given Senior Sergeant Qin Tian's outstanding performance and exceptional military merits in numerous battles on Alpha 7 Star, with the approval of the Special Operations Management Office, it has been decided to promote Qin Tian from Senior Sergeant to Major. His file will be transferred to the Seventh Bureau, and the Seventh Bureau will arrange his future work.”Major!!!Upon hearing the content of the transfer order, everyone was startled by the rocket-like promotion speed.Directly promoting from Senior Sergeant to Major was almost unheard of in the military.Just who exactly was this Seventh Bureau? Their influence was too great.
