“Golden flash! It’s the golden flash!”

“Golden flash! It could be an extremely rare soul pet, a rare soul skill secret carving, an advanced soul device, or a Soul Guiding Skill… I’m so jealous.”

“As expected of a man who could get a green caterpillar for free… Brother Che’s luck is too good…”

“Those who hit a golden flash from this lottery should start treasuring their lives.”

…

Golden light flickered from a dragon-shaped mouth outside the lottery machine.

There was one golden and nine blue-white eggs.

Wang Che was stunned. He did not expect that the prize he did not hold any expectations for would turn out to be so valuable.

The staff member walked up and looked at it for a while. He was probably intrigued about this result as well.

Then, he turned around and smiled at Wang Che.

“Congratulations, it’s the golden egg. The headquarters have already recorded the result and will deliver it to your home soon. You can request to open the golden egg now to see what it is. You can also open it yourself when it arrives at your house.”

“I’ll open it myself when the time comes,” Wang Che nodded, preserving a little of the anticipation.

“Of course!”

After the lottery, Wang Che slowly left the stadium.

Fortunately, the Enlightenment Cup was a beginner-level competition and did not have a large viewer base.

Not many media reporters planned to interview him, the champion of the Enlightenment Cup.

Wang Che was happy to be free. After leaving the stadium, he recalled something and immediately switched on his communication device.

There were 999+ messages in the class group chat.

All he saw was exaggerated flattery.

Wang Che shook his head. Facing such flattery, he felt that it was… not bad.

“Speaking of which, back then, I also took the first place in the immortal sect assessment. That scene is still vivid in my mind.” Wang Che sighed.

At this thought, Wang Che typed in the chat.

“Everyone, don’t use up your praises today. After all, there are still many competitions in the future.”

“If you use up all the words in your vocabulary today, you might only be left with curses in the future.”

Everyone: “…”

“Brother Che, I admire your confidence.”

“Master Che, please give me some pointers… How are you so strong even though we’re both using green caterpillars…”

“Brother Che, give us some combat tips regarding tempo. Share it with us newbies.”

“Brother Che, be honest, are you an old fox in disguise? Your combat experience is on a completely different level compared to other students…”

…

Facing the flattery of these students in the group chat, Wang Che looked very calm. At this moment, Xu Haifeng suddenly said, “You might not be able to learn from him. First of all, you have to have Wang Che’s good looks.”

“What does training a soul pet have to do with our appearance?”

“Of course it’s related. Looks affect the soul pets. If you’re handsome, your soul pets will like you more. When their mood is great, their combat motivation will rise. If you’re ugly, your soul pets won’t like you. How would it have any motivation to fight?”

“It’s harder to raise a soul pet when you’re ugly. If you’re ugly, your soul pet would be depressed when you train it. But if you’re handsome, the soul pet will be in a good mood and full of enthusiasm when training… the difference is obvious!”

Xu Haifeng spoke as a matter-of-fact.

“Why do I feel like it makes sense…”

“No wonder my Sharp Fang Rat feels a little slow when training… Could it be because of my appearance?”

“…Now that you mention it, it seems to be true.”

“Wang Che, don’t you think so?” Xu Haifeng asked.

“That makes sense,” Wang Che replied seriously.

Everyone was speechless.

“What nonsense are you talking about! Instead of studying hard every day, you are instead spreading these strange theories. Xu Haifeng, are you asking for a beating?” Teacher Zheng immediately came out to reprimand him.

“Wang Che, I have something important to tell you when you come to school tomorrow. Alright, don’t lurk in the group anymore! After the three-day break, it’s the final half of the third year of high school. Don’t waste your time!”

Everyone went off immediately.

Wang Che also returned home with a smile.

Mother and Father Wang had already prepared a sumptuous dinner.

The two of them looked at Wang Che’s medal and took the photos one after another. The smiles on their faces did not fade anytime soon.

After dinner, the express delivery from Dino Technology arrived.

They were very efficient.

Mother and Father Wang were not interested in these rewards and only warned Wang Che not to spend money recklessly.

He carried the box and brought the green caterpillar back to his room.

He opened the package and saw 100,000 dollars in cash at the top.

Compared to the others, the monetary reward was the worst one.

Next was a small food box.

“Ssss!”

The green caterpillar looked at the food box. As soon as it finished eating the leaves, it immediately used its tail to pat the ground.

It hissed excitedly as this was something it had never smelled before!

Wang Che opened the food box and saw 3,000 Yang Crystal Milk Pine Leaves inside.

Each leaf was massive.

Wang Che took out a leaf and noted that it was not very big, but it was as thick as a pancake despite being only palm-sized.

There was also an accompanying manual with it.

This Yang Crystal Milk Pine Leaf was one of the best foods for bug-type soul pets.

It could greatly increase the growth speed of a soul pet. It contained abundant soul power and also a special life force.

Generally speaking, soul pets below a thousand years would consume about eight to ten pieces a day.

“Ssss!”

The green caterpillar used its head to nudge Wang Che’s thigh, indicating that it wanted to eat.

Wang Che nodded. He picked up the leaf in his hand and turned around to eat it himself.

The green caterpillar: “…”

Wang Che slowly chewed, and his eyes lit up again.

The texture was not bad, being somewhat like a grape. He took one bite and there was quite a bit of juice with a sweet and sour flavor.

“Good stuff!”

Wang Che took a deep breath as his eyes flickered.

He closed the lid and said, “You can’t eat it now. You can only eat this a week later.”

The green caterpillar’s body softened and fell to the ground. It stared at the box of food beside it… Slowly, it wriggled over.

Wang Che snatched the food box away.

Crack!

It was locked up.

“Be good.”

Wang Che patted the green caterpillar on the head.

The green caterpillar crawled to the top of the food box and lay down before nodding.

Wang Che continued inspecting the box as he took out the packaged soul device and unwrapped it.

It was the mechanical meteorite armor soul device.

It had yet to activate and was only a small triangular chip. There were instructions in the box and some things to take note of.

Wang Che glanced at it and carefully observed the triangular chip.

It was made of meteorite, but that was naturally not referring to an ordinary meteor.

Thousands of years ago, there had been an invasion by another world. The powerful monsters from the other world had left behind many things.

Meteorites were one of them.

Wang Che closed his eyes and felt the energy inside.

That’s right, inside this chip was the lowest grade spirit stone.

When he saw it earlier, he had vaguely felt it.

Spirit stones were stones that contained spiritual Qi. They were the most basic currency in the cultivation world.

Not only did spirit stones exist in the cultivation world where Wang Che was, but they would also be produced by the gathering of spiritual Qi in the other worlds.

However, they were called by different names in different worlds.

Even on Earth, one could find some rocks that contained spiritual Qi, but they were very rare and the quantity inside was very little.

Unfortunately, the spirit stone in this chip didn’t have much spiritual Qi left, and the stone was also cracked.

This caused the mechanical circuits to be blocked, preventing the device from using its functions.

“I didn’t expect this world to have spirit stones… and the people even treat them as meteorites… Most likely, the other world that invaded this one might be related to the cultivation world I was from…”
