The Goblin Camp was built against a hill, occupying a higher ground. Its watchtowers were set far apart, and Mu Yuan could only vaguely make out the large wooden and stone buildings within, shrouded in drifting white mist.

The camp occupied a large area, easily two or three times the size of the one he had just vanquished.

Mu Yuan observed it atop his battle hawk.

After two evolutions, and the significant increase in his psychic power, Mu Yuan could vaguely sense the contractual link between him and the Hurricane War Hawk.

This connection was strengthened when the shared vision skill was activated.

He became better at directing the hawk. At his command, the Hurricane War Hawk slightly closed its wings, and like an arrow released from the bow, it shot off.

Fast! Faster! Extremely fast!

The goblins on the ground were making chirping noises. The spearmen fiercely hurled their spears and in an instant, spears rained down like raindrops.

This was too enthusiastic.

The Hurricane War Hawk was a little overwhelmed.

“Wind speed.”

The spears were so dense that they virtually blocked off all space. Despite the speed of the Hurricane War Hawk, it could only avoid them by turning around.

However,

A faint blue whirlwind suddenly appeared, encircling the hawk’s wings. In the next moment, it whipped up a violent gust of wind.

The violent winds howled, blowing the spears off course. The Hurricane War Hawk seized this opportunity to weave through them. It dived, the white mist in its vision thinning out, while the entire Goblin Camp gradually became clearer.

Watchtowers, tents, boulders, altars.

He spotted a Goblin Shaman, who let loose a huge fireball in a moment. However, it wasn’t moving very quickly, so the Hurricane War Hawk easily evaded it with a flap of its wings.

That scared the bird out of him!

The next moment, countless more spears showered down, interspersed with giant wooden planks.

That was a robust, green figure. By straining with both hands, it ripped off a wall panel and hurled it like a concealed weapon at the hawk.

This was a Goblin Warrior, a rare one-star monster!

And there were three of them.

However, it seemed they didn’t reach the professional level.

If they had, he would have to consider whether his hawk, Jun, would be able to return.

Even so, Mu Yuan began commanding the Hurricane War Hawk to retreat… However, this creature seemed a bit unrestrained and took a detour before leaving.

Because of this detour, Mu Yuan clearly saw a burly figure behind the huge camp.

And…

A gate about ten meters high, ancient and swirling with a time-space vortex.

“Is that…”

“The Secret Realm’s Gate!”

After the Hurricane War Hawk returned, instead of ordering takeout as usual, Mu Yuan went to a restaurant located within his residential complex.

He deserved to treat himself once in a while.

Most residents and tenants in this complex seemed to be players. Mu Yuan hardly saw anyone on ordinary days, but no sooner had he sat down to order than he overheard customers in a distant corner chatting about game-related topics.

He wouldn’t normally eavesdrop, but due to his maxed out hearing abilities, Mu Yuan could hear the conversation clearly, even from a distance.

It was not because I wanted to eavesdrop.

Mu Yuan tilted himself to the side a little, and pricked up his ears.

“Have you checked the forum? The young master of the City Lord of Liuyun City has said that he’s discovered the entrance to the challenge of the secret realm. And he’ll be taking it down and entering it soon.”

“I’m envious. We are also excellent rookie lords, but why haven’t we found the entrance to this secret realm yet?”

“Wake up, although we are second-generation gamers, we can’t compare ourselves to top-tier second generation lords like them. How far have we explored? It’s normal that we haven’t found it yet.”

“Even if we could find the entrance to the secret realm, it’s very likely that we won’t be able to defeat the guardian monster outside. If our main force takes losses as a result, it would be a huge loss for us.”

“We should just prepare for the trial honestly. As long as we can become lords, we’ll be living a divine life in the future.”

The two gamers in the distance seemed to be part of the sixteen newcomers who took the test at the same time as him.

But Mu Yuan was socially anxious and completely uninterested in striking up a conversation. He just wanted to play the game in peace.

So, he took out his phone and logged into the forum.

The discussion about the Newcomer Challenge of the Secret Realm was hot on the forum.

“The young master of Liuyun City, Luo Xing, has already discovered the entrance to the Challenge Secret Realm and is about to subdue it.”

“Lord Yu She has already entered the Secret Realm for newcomers and has reportedly cleared several levels and received substantial rewards.”

“By the looks of it, Luo Xing is lagging behind Yu She. Yu She exterminated the monsters guarding the gate to the secret realm two days ago.”

“That’s not exactly a fair comparison. The guardian monster that Yu She had to deal with was just a group of Jackal Men, and even if there was a ninth level Jackal Man amongst them, they’re still only Jackal Men. The guardians that Lord Luo Xing had to face, however, were a number of Gargoyles of rare rank. Despite the fact that the Gargoyles have not yet reached the professional level, they still leave the Jackal Men far behind.”

These two seem to be quite prominent, or perhaps they’re offspring of big shots.

Many new and veteran players on the forum started a debate about who of the two is the strongest.

As they squabbled, other ‘strongest newcomers’ were also mentioned.

Of course, it was mainly the veteran players who were making the nominations, while the newcomers were spectating and occasionally cheering on the speakers, which made the veterans even more excited.

For example, the younger sister of the Lord of Han Yue City; the current heir of the Tianlei Family; the legitimate daughter of the Tianhu Clan; the son of the Wang Clan of Beiting;

And so on.

As everyone knows, you can always list more than ten ‘strongest newcomers’.

Of course, not all of these top-notch second-generation players are from the south of Xuan Country, and the times they entered the Eternal World differed as well.

Interestingly, both Luo Xing and Yu She were, like him, in the Twilight Plain Region.

The Newcomer Secret Realm of Challenge they entered would also be in the same space.

And from Luo Xing’s bragging post, Mu Yuan could easily tell that…

“There’s still seven days left before the Secret Realm’s gate will close. There’s no rush for that, but…”

How could he keep his enthusiastic goblins waiting?

He certainly wasn’t going to miss the Secret Realm of Challenge either. As Jiang Cheng, the big shot, had said, whenever there’s an opportunity, you have to strive, suppress all competitors, in order to reach the extreme peak.’

(Jiang Cheng: I didn’t say that last part!)

The next day, early morning, Mu Yuan was conducting a roll call.

Little skeletons and skeleton soldiers lined up, eager to be inspected by him.

Not far away, there were the Slime Phalanx, Sentinel Squadron, Archer Squadron, and the airborne Battle Falcon Squadron.

This was all the power he had in his territory.

Whether in terms of quantity or rank, it had significantly improved compared to a few days ago.

“The numbers of sentinels and archers remain the same, but half of them have already metamorphosed under the power of evolution.’

“The number of slimes has increased significantly, up to thirty. Among them, fifteen are Big Slimes. In addition, besides Duo Lai, five slimes have evolved to a rare rank.”

However, their evolution type was different from Duo Lai’s. They were called ‘Silver Slimes’ and learnt the skill of Doubling, which could expand their already large bodies one or two times further.

Paired with the Leap skill, it could achieve surprising effects.

Of course, as the ‘king’ among the slimes, Duo Lai had already been evolved to a rare three-star stage after Mu Yuan consumed 25 evolution points. However, Duo Lai’s ability to Devour had significantly improved without his profession changing.

“The true main force of the territory, the Skeleton series, has grown to 70 in number, with 40 Skeleton Soldiers, 10 Skeleton Warriors, and 3 Skeleton Generals.”

The trump card and future Great Emperor Dead Bone of the Lord, though its rank had not continued to rise, had already been trained from LV6 to LV8. After a few days of exploration and hunting, using its Death Extraction talent, it had absorbed a large amount of essence and probably had a reserve of energy not lower than that of a professional class.

Mainly due to the fact that Mu Yuan was unsure of how much energy a professional class soldier had as he had never seen one.

Duo Lai’s energy reserve was also exaggerated, the more it ate, the more it grew. At the same time, Duo Lai’s level had also surpassed Dead Bone, and already reached the 9th level of the zero stage. It would take a few more days to fully accumulate experience though.

Mu Yuan wasn’t clear about the forces of other top second-generation players, but thinking about it, his peak power should not be weaker than theirs, if not stronger, right?

Mainly, he hasn’t witnessed the real power of other top second-generation players yet. Maybe he will have a chance to see it in the Secret Realm of Challenge?

Mu Yuan started to inspect his soldiers.

This time, for the hunt, Great Lord Shepherd was personally leading the team, with General Dead Bone and General Duo Lai naturally accompanying him. Well, other than leaving behind three Skeleton Warriors and two Strong Shooters to guard the Arrow Tower at home, he took all other high-level forces with him.

5 rare three-star soldiers, 21 rare one-star soldiers, and a number of Skeleton Soldiers, Big Slimes, and Battle Falcons.

This was his force!

“Let’s go.”

The team moved forward with unstoppable momentum, heading north openly without any attempt at concealment.

The few monsters attracted by their presence along the way were slaughtered one by one, none could stand in their way.

They would reach their destination soon.

Tssss

Just like that day and that moment, several stout spears were suddenly launched from the dense forest. They ripped through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound as they viciously…

“Dang-!”

Suddenly, a huge palm, about three to four metres long and shining with a metallic lustre, appeared mid-air, bouncing all the incoming spears away.

The next moment, the figure of Duo Lai disappeared.

A loud rumbling sound came from a distance, accompanied by billowing smoke and dust.

Among the smoke and dust, the vegetation had disappeared, leaving only a huge palm print several metres long in the mud. Inside the palm print, there were several Spear Throwers, their forms no longer recognisable..
