nThe Heavenly Wood God was planning to create a card for Wei Huo. Wei Huo thought that this was a plotline quest. He would be rewarded if he took part in it.

nHowever, he regretted not keeping an Epic-ranked creature as his pet.

nWei Huo thought about it carefully and realized that he still had an Epic-ranked creature. It was the Black Dragon, who was still alive after being thrown into the incubation slot. Now that it was in the incubation slot, the Black Dragon was in time halt mode. However, due to the lack of five slots, the female Zerg’s incubation had yet to begin.

nWei Huo did not want to turn the rhinoceros into a card. Instead, he wanted to turn the dying Epic-ranked creature into a card. After all, the difference between Rare-ranked and Epic-ranked creatures was too great. Wei Huo was unsure if the Epic-ranked creature summoned by the card had an imposing aura.

nHe approached the Heavenly Wood God. Soon, a notification popped up in his system.

n“Please invest in a living creature. Please click for confirmation.”

nWei Huo then opened the Pet Space and the Incubation System. He tried to drag the rhinoceros, Wei Sha, and the dying Epic-ranked Black Dragon into the game with his mind. The three of them entered the game, and he received some notifications.

n“Please note that biological creatures will lose their growth after they are turned into cards.”

n“You must ensure that the souls of the creatures you invest in are intact.”

n“Mythical creatures cannot be turned into cards.”

nWei Huo checked the notifications. It seemed like he could turn the Black Dragon into an Epic-ranked card. That was good news.

nThe Heavenly Wood God started to urge him. “Child, put the creature that you need to turn into a card in this slot.”

nWei Huo was confused. Did these Gods really have souls? Why did they appear intellectual at times but sometimes as rigid as if something was restricting their thoughts?

nIt was weird!

nWei Huo was confused, but he suppressed his confusion and threw the Black Dragon into the slot.

nSoon, the Heavenly Wood God unleashed his power, and a purple light suddenly descended from the sky.

nThe Black Dragon’s purple soul gem floated up, and countless purple lights were combined to form a card.

nA moment later, a voice came from the sky. “Epic!”

nThe crowd started applauding mechanically. Wei Huo found it odd that those people, who loved complaining, did not say anything now.

nYour behavior is not consistent! Aren’t you surprised that my Rare creature became Epic? You were all shocked when she said I had a Rare creature. Now that I have an Epic one, aren’t you surprised?

nYou guys are making me uncomfortable.

nWei Huo suddenly sensed that although he had been the center of attention previously, it was all because he was a player. Everyone clapped according to the program settings and acted surprised. It was not real. Everything was just a program setting.

nIt was as if he was playing a realistic virtual-reality game. Although it was realistic, it was just because of the system settings. At the end of the day, everything was fake!

nHowever, Wei Huo felt that this was not the case. He believed that as long as a player did not interfere in the NPCs’ affairs, their relationship would become real. However, once Wei Huo intervened, they would become rigid.

nThis applied to the snowmen, Ye Yunxiao, Han Yun, as well as the Heavenly Wood God and the audience.

nSomething was not right!

nWei Huo was confused but did not say anything. At that moment, someone said loudly, “Alright, is it time for the meeting to end? Time is almost up.”

n“It’s about time. It’s time to end this!”

nWei Huo was confused.

nDidn’t you say there were still three hours left? Even if I delayed, there are still two hours and five minutes left. What made you change your mind in five minutes?

nWas that man coming back?

nHan Yun suddenly shouted, “Please wait! The time is not over yet!”

nWang Teng frowned. “Yun’er, why are you stalling for time for that person?”

nHan Yun, who seemed to dislike Wang Teng, turned her head away and did not speak. Han Lu checked the time and said, “Alright, we’ll wait for 10 more minutes.”

nWei Huo was confused.

nThe time is not up yet, alright? Why does it seem like the two of you already had a time limit?

nIt seemed like that man was indeed coming back!

nJust as the audience and the Heavenly Wood God started getting impatient, Ye Yunxiao finally returned through the rainbow gate. The crowd started complaining.

n“Isn’t this too slow?”

n“Just complete the quest as soon as you reach the Rare rank. We have been waiting for so long!”

n“Don’t complain. I think it’s not bad that he managed to escape death!”

nWei Huo was a little confused. Why are all of you picking on Ye Yunxiao? Although he’s a petty person who doesn’t get along well with others and he is a little stubborn, he… Alright, he deserves it.

nWei Huo thought that Ye Yunxiao was definitely a key character. Besides, he likely had some kind of passive curse, such as a taunting halo.

nAfter all, in reality, even if one didn’t like someone, one wouldn’t say it out loud. One wouldn’t deliberately offend someone who seemed like they had potential. They’d just have to greet each other and not interact. Why should people offend each other?

nThe only explanation was that this person had some kind of passive curse like an automatic taunt.

nWei Huo was unaffected, as he was a player.

nWhen Ye Yunxiao returned to the square, the crowd immediately booed him, as he only had one Pet Space.

nWei Huo raised his brows. Was he hiding those Epic-ranked creatures? Anyway, Wei Huo did not believe that he had released the Epic-ranked creatures.

nWas he trying to create an Epic-ranked card?

nSoon, Han Lu lifted his Divine Pet Space and shouted, “Epic stage!”

nThe audience burst into laughter.

nWei Huo could not understand why they were laughing when a Rare-ranked creature had become an Epic-ranked creature.

nAccording to tradition, the Heavenly Wood God wanted to create an Epic-ranked card for Ye Yunxiao. The Heavenly Wood God was the same. He looked relieved that he could now complete the last quest. It seemed like it was not easy to create Legendary-level cards.

nA purple light fell from the sky. A moment later, a purple Epic card was created. A sharp-eyed God laughed out loud when he saw it. “Look, the Epic-ranked creature he captured was actually a crab.”

nWei Huo took a look and realized that the Epic-ranked creature’s name was Killer Crab. Its special effect was that its body could grow by 0.2 percent every time it killed an enemy.

nAn Epic-ranked creature with unlimited growth?

nWei Huo was a little shocked. To be honest, he wanted to trade with Ye Yunxiao. The Killer Crab was like the gluttonous snake, okay? It could grow indefinitely as long as it continued killing.

nThe last young God had now returned. The Heavenly Wood God finally stood up and announced loudly, “I hereby announce that the coming-of-age ceremony will end in 100 days. The winner will get three random Epic-ranked cards. The first runner-up will get one random Epic-ranked card. The second runner-up will get three random Rare-ranked cards. The first three contestants will get one chance to enter the ruins.”

nA moment later, Wei Huo’s system sent him a quest. “If you get first place in the game of cards 100 days from now, you will be rewarded with a random Legendary Item. Note: At least 15 cards are necessary to participate in the competition.”
