I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 997: Chapter 642: Selection Begins, Evolution of Three Major Talents (Part 2)

Liang He’s lips also curved into a faint smile.

Yeah, the two of them were both Tier Five powerhouses. In the entire Azure Dragon Army, they could be counted as pillar-level experts; getting selected was basically guaranteed.

This time, the fiercest competition was still among those Tier Four soldiers.

As for them, the Tier Five powerhouses, as long as they performed steadily, there was almost no chance of getting cut.

”Ahe, since the two of us brothers can get in steady, then we’ve gotta start getting ready for the Nine Stars Martial Meet.” Konis put away his smile, his expression turning solemn. ”The Legion has just developed several models of powered Armor. I heard that even the lowest-grade battle Armor, once you put it on, can let a Tier Five Spiritualist walk sideways among the same tier. With the Military Merit Points I’ve saved up, exchanging for two sets is totally no problem. When the time comes, we’ll each take one set, so we can watch each other’s backs.”

”Konis, thanks.” Liang He didn’t refuse in the slightest. They had fought shoulder to shoulder for years in university; they were already brothers who’d been through life and death together, no need for polite words.

A set of Armor could greatly boost his combat power and survivability. As long as he could survive the Nine Stars Martial Meet, he would definitely have the chance to properly repay this kindness from Konis in the future.

”Hah, what are you being polite with me for! That’s my good brother!”

Konis laughed heartily and clapped Liang He on the shoulder. ”Just wait, I’ll head to the quartermaster right now to exchange them. If I’m late I’m afraid the others will snatch them up!”

With that, Konis hurriedly ran toward the direction of the quartermaster’s office, his steps kicking up the wind.

Watching Konis’s figure as he went farther away, a strong expectation welled up in Liang He’s eyes.

The Nine Stars Martial Meet—this was his one and only chance to change his own mediocre Talent and turn his fate around. He had to grab it tight and never let go.

...

”Too many good Talents. Which one to evolve first is actually a bit of a headache.”

On the summit of the icy mountain, the cold wind howled and snowflakes whirled in the sky.

Qin Tian stood alone at the peak, a faint Energy barrier circulating around him, shutting out the bone-piercing chill.

He gazed at the system light screen in front of him, densely packed with entries listing all of his Talents.

Qin Tian’s eyes slowly swept across it, his tone carrying a hint of happy trouble.

Right now, the Evolution Points he’d accumulated had already broken through the ten-billion mark. That was a truly terrifying number.

You had to know, evolving a single Orange Talent to Gold only needed fifty to a hundred million Evolution Points. In other words, as long as he wanted, he could unlock another seven or eight Gold Talents at any time, pushing his strength up to yet another major plateau.

However, Qin Tian knew very well that Talents were precious for their refinement, not their quantity.

Blindly chasing the number of Gold Talents was meaningless—one Gold Talent was far more powerful than ten Orange Talents stacked together.

Likewise, the appearance of a single Talent above Gold would be more valuable than many Gold Talents.

If he could evolve a Talent to that level, he would definitely be able to insta-kill all Holy Blood powerhouses and truly stand at the pinnacle of the Cosmos, unmatched by anyone.

So his core goal now wasn’t to blindly unlock Gold Talents, but to accumulate as many Evolution Points as possible and strive to evolve his Talents to a level above Gold Holy Blood.

Ten billion Evolution Points looked huge, but in truth it was still far from enough.

Even so, Qin Tian wasn’t anxious—the Nine Stars Martial Meet was itself a massive slaughterhouse, and also the perfect chance to obtain Evolution Points. When that time came, he would definitely be able to stockpile enough Evolution Points.

For now, he planned to use a portion of the Evolution Points to enhance those Talents that could directly and noticeably boost his combat power, so as to be ready for the upcoming Nine Stars Martial Meet.

After carefully studying the Talents on the system panel, Qin Tian locked onto three Talents that were intimately tied to weapons.

[Name] Soul of the Gun God (Purple)

[Type] Composite Talent
