After the promotion of all their seniors, the next ones to achieve upgrades are Han Ling, Qu Yul, Si Shen, and Wu Liu. Like the mission finished by their seniors, their task is to raid another herd of zerg. But unlike the missions of the seniors where they could help, their task needed to be completed by the four of them as a team.
Their mission is to eradicate everything within the Shadow Moth territory. It is a huge crevice in between two mountains. The strength of these zergs ranges from low to high class. But like the other mission where they need to kill a high-class zerg one on one. They only need to kill everything in this territory, they could use everything whether fighting it or using explosives are allowed but the only requirement is that every moth must be killed.
The four worked together to complete their achievement tasks. They have already seen the rewards System Etoile had provided to their brothers. They wanted to promote their strengths as well. Before the sun had completely set, the four of them successfully reached the achievement and received the same potion to promote their strengths.
At night Feng Jing gathered all the ordinary people in their team and asked them to meet him in his tent. The way to awaken someone is not known to others so what Feng Jing is going to do next is something that would definitely change everything the people of this world knew.
A way to allow an ordinary person to awaken is something no one had discovered nor known how to do so. Feng Jing is the first one. This is because the soul that is the vessel right now is not the original but a godly being that is at the peak of the highest realm. There is almost nothing he doesn't know.
First, Feng Jing whose capabilities were no longer sealed the moment he got back his memories can use all of his special skills and talents. He is a well-known God and a cultivator at birth plus his medical skills were unparalleled. Opening up the close meridians of these people can be easily achieved by a poke of his ice needles. It took a few hours for him to help Solaris Vega and the rest to unsealed the talents their bodies had.
Feng Jing only went out of the tent the moment that those inside the tent had entered a meditative state which would allow them to gather as much as world energy to push themselves to the limits and entered the awakening state. The people called awakened ones in this world can be considered people who were especially talented to become a cultivator. Those ordinary people they call are those who weren't able to control the world's energy at birth and failed to become awakened ones.
Unless you are a real born ordinary person who possesses F-rank at birth, the possibility of getting enlightenment is not impossible. Moreover, Feng Jing is the type to move even the fate if he really wanted to. What he wanted to do, he would do so. What he hated will be something he would never move for. As he is someone with a clear line for those he likes and for those he hates.
When the morning of the new data had arrived, everyone had a feeling of going under rebirth. Now everyone in this team is awakened. There is no ordinary person in this group who had all successfully opened up their talents by their own hard work. The opportunity is all thanks to the person they will choose to serve for this lifetime and that is Feng Jing.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the night of the sixth day of the competition, some changes in the Central Region had been made. Marshal Sirius and his small group of six had secretly entered the central region to destroy the space portal that connects Planet Citlali to the main planet where the Zerg Race lives.
Under Marshal Sirius' lead, their small group of Sentinels had invaded the place Alula Celeste had told him before. The location of the space portal. What the marshal didn't expect is that Alula Celeste informed him about the portal to bring away the students with them before they entered the central region where the royal zerg had full control.
Altair Sirius might always look cold and expressionless but his arrogance and haughtiness are something Alula Celeste would have never expected. For a proud person like the marshal, two pureblood royal zergs are nothing in his eyes. He knew he was the strongest sentinel that ever existed. The pride he had as the strongest blind him, he had forgotten that he is not the original soul he is supposed to be but just a mere soul fragment of that great being.
This is why he made this kind of mistake and made the wrong decision.
Central Region.
Hidden Mansion at the center of the volcano.
This mansion's structure is so much like what humans have on their land but unlike the normal house made from cement and coated in paint, this mansion is made from black unknown material and the whole building is built at the piece of land in the mouth of the volcano. Lava surrounded the area and the temperature was high and extremely humid. There is no way a human can live in this kind of place.
At the moment, Sirius and the rest of the team were afloat in the sky above the volcano riding on Roi's back. Standing behind the marshal is Xue Ying who is wearing their usual armor for battle. The other four behind them wear the same thing.
Alula Celeste who just left the Planet and had just got his spaceship to leave the planet unnoticed received the news about a small group of people appearing above the secret vacation house of the Zerg race. Everyone in his battleship is from the human race and from his clan who is pretending to be a zerg like him. This is why they were informed that Marshal Sirius is not dead like the rumors in the universe.
In Outer Space, not far from Planet Citlali.
Alula Celeste had just taken his short nap as soon as they'd departed from Planet Citlali when his subordinate suddenly woke him from an emergency report coming from the planet he just left from.
"Clan Leader. Report. Emergency Report!!!"
Alula Celeste said, "What is it? Speak out."
"T-That… That… After the clan leader had left the planet, Marshal Sirius took some of his people planning to invade the hidden mansion in the central region! There are only 6 of them in total and all of them are Sentinels."
Hearing this news Alula Celeste's sleepy state was abruptly awakened from shock and anger.
With a deep frown on his face, "What the hell is that fucking brat planning to do!? I had already warned him about the special skills of a Pureblooded Zerg!!?"
"Even the young brat from Xue was brought with him."
"These two idiots! Connect me to Sirius!" said Alula Celeste.
"Clan leader, you can't do this! You'll put yourself into a bad position if someone from that side was able to leave the planet alive!"
Alula Celeste didn't change his mind and instead ordered his people to hasten their retreat preparations.
"No worries. We are planning to leave anyway. Just tell everyone to leave the Zerg Planet as fast and as secretly as possible. That idiot brat can't die. Not only is he the hope of our Empire, but he is also the other half of our little darling."
"Eh? Seriously! Xiao Jing's chosen Sentinel is him!?"
Alula Celeste, "Yes, they are even a fated pair."
"Fated Pair!? As in the one in the legend!!?"
"Yes. So connect me to that idiot's communicator. I am going to fucking scold this damn brat!" exclaimed Alula Celeste in anger.
On the other hand above the volcano, Marshal Sirius is staring at the hidden mansion just below him. He could still recall the warning Grandfather Celeste had just told him about the special skill the purebloods possessed. The ability to force any human sentinel to fall in a state of mania but over polluting their spiritual domain of a Sentinel. Marshal Sirius actually wanted to know how the Zergs would be able to do that.
Xue Ying suddenly spoke beside him, "Marshal, are you still infiltrating that mansion?"
"Hm… Wait. I'm still think—"
All of the sudden his communicator from his light brain was ringing. This is from an unknown person but the Marshal still answered it. A holographic screen that showed Alula Celeste's dark expression appeared before the Marshal. Xue Ying, who was standing beside his boss, immediately recognized the person on the other side.
[Damn Brat! Like that place right this instance! Didn't this old man warn you already! Those stupid kings and queen zerg in that mansion can force you to fell in the state of Mania! and you fucking brought a whole group of Sentinels with you. Are you stupid? Stupid boy! Listen to this old man and retreat! RETREAT I tell you!!!]
Xue Ying had astonishment painted all over his face as he looked at the face of the elder from his boss's communicator.
"T-This person. Isn't he supposed to be dead!? That's the former Marshal Alula! the first SSS-ranked guide in the world." exclaimed Xue Ying.
[Oh~ aren't you the brat from A'Xia's place. You've grown quite a bit ha! Anyway, listen to this old man. That place you are in is dangerous. Retreat this instance!]
He couldn't help but salute in front of this gentle yet dignified elder, "Y-Yes sir!" said Xue Ying.
Marshal Sirius asked, "Grandfather Celes, do you know how the Zerg could influence a Sentinel to fall into mania?"
[Yes… It's Sound…waves…]
The communication between them suddenly wavered but in reality, it wasn't the defect in the connections of their communicator but in the people themselves. The Marshal and his team suddenly felt dizzy out of nowhere and felt an uncontrollable rage within their mind. A long loud ringing was heard in their heads making them lose control.
ZZZIIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGG~
They've clutched their heads in pain. Among them, Marshal Sirius who had experienced this once already knew what was happening.
Marshal Sirius's thoughts, 'This… This ringing sound could make one lose himself… This is… fuck! So they attack through soundwaves.'
AAARRRGGGHHH!
My head! It hurts!
FUCK! Make it stop.
"Roi! Bring the rest away! Look for Jing'er!!!" commanded Sirius to his quantum beast.
The black dragon hesitated for a moment but when he met his master's red eyes, he couldn't help but be frightened and was also almost influenced by his master's mania.
[Master hold on! I will bring your guide here to help you!]
The sound of agony and cries can be heard from the other men riding the back of the black dragon. Meanwhile, tons of guardian class zerg come out of the mansion coming over them. Altair Sirius who could somewhat hold one brought out his mecha to block the enemies from going after Roi and the rest.
Xue Ying already knew what his boss was planning to do, amid his pain, he reached out his hand weakly in the marshal's direction.
"S-Stop! Don't do… it alone!" said Xue Ying before finally losing his mind from his mania.
"GO NOW!!" shouted the Marshal before diving in to kill the zergs.
The black dragon king flew away as his master ordered. He could only leave his master's side for a moment and look for his other master. The other half of the marshal, the only person who could solve his master's mania state, Lord Feng.
[Master! Please hold on!]
