Lonemoon frowned, thinking about the various lists and the introduction beneath them.
“I took a quick look earlier. S-grade beasts would earn you anywhere from 100 to 10,000 points.” He pointed at the 100 points under his own name. “This is District S. The first person on this list has 2,300,000 points. In other words, we have to kill at least 230 S-grade beasts in order to become first place on that list.”
“We can do that.” Shen Ying gave him a thumbs up. “Father Niu is Grade SSS!”
Lonemoon lowered his gaze and looked at her suspiciously. “Why aren’t you going on your own? If I can retain my own cultivation, you – the cheat – should be able too as well!”
“It’s because I have Father Niu!”
You’re just freaking lazy, aren’t you?
“Are you sure that the highest level beasts on this planet are all S-grade?”
“Absolutely!” Shen Ying beat her own chest.
For some reason, he felt that she was being ridiculous. Lonemoon looked all around him and stood up hesitantly. “Let’s go!” Forget it, they were already here anyway. He was just going to take it as experiencing the customs of outer space. When he looked around earlier, the S-grade beasts on this planet were the equivalent of tenth-stage demonic beasts in the immortal world. Given his cultivation level, he could take on more than ten of such beasts without breaking a sweat. What’s more, he had Shen Ying, the cheat.
As he spoke, he dragged Shen Ying onto his flying sword and took off toward the dangerous district marked out on his map. He started to feel some excitement in his chest. Afterall, he was one of the strongest people on this planet. He wanted to test out his skills as someone at the top of the food chain.
The moment they left the safe district, a red exclamation mark appeared in front of them. A reminder sounded by their ears.
[Warning: An S-grade beast has been detected ahead.]
This really was some advanced technology. It even had a radar for beasts! Lonemoon landed, drew his immortal sword and waited for the beast to appear. In less than three seconds, the figure of a beast appeared in front of them… two beasts… 20 beasts… a few hundred…
Lonemoon: “…”
Shen Ying: “…”

Why were there so many! Sh*t!
“Why didn’t you tell me that the S-grade beasts travelled in herds!”
“Eh, I thought you knew.”
“Knew my foot!” Lonemoon felt like breaking the cheater’s neck. “You wouldn’t rest if you didn’t lie to me at least once, would you!” Given the size of the herd, it was almost a stampede! It was no wonder that they had not met any other player along the way. Everybody probably did not dare to come over for fear of getting killed.
Lonemoon watched as the beasts got nearer and nearer. He gritted his teeth and immediately stood upright. Without any hesitation, he shouted, “Go!”
He mounted his flying sword and ascended into the air.
“Wait!” Shen Ying pointed to the sky. “There are more in the sky!”
The next moment, he heard a lot of noise and turned to see a dense crowd of bodies.
Lonemoon: “…” F*ck, he really wanted to escape!
The beasts were getting closer. Lonemoon had no choice but to grit his teeth and go ahead. The sky suddenly filled with many swords. Lonemoon was not sure if these so-called beasts were really just animals from outer space. Although there were so many of them, each of them was not comparable to the demonic beasts in the immortal realm. They did not seem to have any intelligence whatsoever. Dealing with herds of beasts like that was much easier for Lonemoon. For a few minutes, he listened to the ring of his points increasing by his ear.
His points increased rapidly from 100, until he made it to the top of the list in under and hour. Still, his points continued to increase.
However…
No matter how relaxing it was, he could not stop the monsters from charging at him in the thousands.
“Go for it, Father Niu!”
“Go your ass!” Lonemoon glared at her. “Wait, don’t tell me you’ve been remaining behind me all this time.”
