Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 413: Chapter 340 Extradition Chapter 413: Chapter 340 Extradition “Domain illusion technique, what a pleasant surprise…”

After exchanging the Purple Card with the White Tiger Masked Man, Su Yuan felt much more cheerful.

However, unlike the previous exchange of the Super Blue Star Device, Su Yuan clearly noticed several sharp gazes after stepping out of the private room this time.

Some of these gazes were from those who were interested in the Thunder Star Card earlier.

Of course, those gazes weren’t just on himself, but also on the White Tiger Masked Man beside him.

Although it was hard to tell from the face and voice, judging from the physique and attire, the White Tiger Masked Man beside him seemed quite young.

Regardless of whether their trade succeeded or not, it’s certain that both Su Yuan and the White Tiger Masked Man possessed Epic Purple Cards.

“The earlier visitors didn’t attract this much attention… oh, ‘new faces,’ huh.”

Su Yuan quickly realized it was likely because both he and the White Tiger Masked Man appeared as “new faces,” drawing extra “attention.”

But Su Yuan didn’t mind. After all, now that they were in North Pole City, even Shining Star Level experts couldn’t recklessly attack others.

Even if someone dared to make a move, he wouldn’t mind teaching them a lesson…

The trade event continued, but until it ended, Su Yuan didn’t find anything else of interest.

The White Tiger Masked Man, having already traded with Su Yuan, didn’t step onto the stage to propose any trades.

“The trade event aims to promote mutual assistance among everyone. Those who didn’t gain anything this time, I hope you’ll find something next time. Now, please leave in an orderly fashion.”

As Wu Wenhuang spoke, he asked everyone present to remove their masks and leave one by one.

“Esteemed guest, please~”

A waiter led Su Yuan to the entrance of the Night Light Hall and reclaimed the animal mask.

Su Yuan touched his face. There were still some lingering animal shadows gradually fading, enough to conceal his features for a while.

“It’s a rather handy auxiliary tool. I might buy some similar things in the future; they could come in handy.”

A silvery light shone in Su Yuan’s eyes. He activated the All-Knowing Vision but didn’t detect anyone secretly watching him.

“No one followed me…”

It was uncertain whether it was because he was in North Pole City or due to what he mentioned about the Radiant Guard’s Sword, but no one seemed to target him eventually.

Su Yuan chuckled, then swiftly returned to the hotel.

Returning to the hotel, Su Yuan called Ruan Ruan out from the Guardian Beast Space.

“Ruan Ruan, take these two items.”

Su Yuan handed the Water Mirror Sword and the Sea and Sky Realm to Ruan Ruan.

Ruan Ruan took the two items, and after a quick inspection, her eyes widened.

“Piji Piji!”

Seeing these two items, Ruan Ruan couldn’t contain her excitement and let out sounds from her true form.

Having followed Su Yuan for so long, Ruan Ruan had seen many treasures and knew which ones were good.

The Water Mirror Sword was secondary. The Sea and Sky Realm, however, was an absolute treasure.

“Thank you, Master!” Ruan Ruan tightly hugged Su Yuan’s arm in excitement.

Su Yuan nodded with a smile, then said, “Go practice in the Qingming Realm yourself.”

“Okay!”

Su Yuan raised his hand and brought Ruan Ruan into the Qingming Realm, then began his cultivation.

After entering the Shining Star Level, he lost track of time during cultivation.

Though Shining Star Level practitioners could directly extract high-concentration Star Power from Star Stones for faster cultivation, it was unknown how long it would take for the Star Sea to reach its peak.

Nevertheless, consistent effort was indispensable.

Besides cultivation of Star Power, there was also the meditation Dean Cai had specifically emphasized.

Su Yuan closed his eyes, diving his consciousness into the Soul Card within the Star Sea.

“Clang!”

Sensing Su Yuan’s consciousness descend, the Qingming Profound Phoenix instantly became active, streaming with deeper black light, growing bit by bit in a tangible yet subtle manner…

During the day, Su Yuan cultivated Star Power; at night, he meditated, taking over four hours to sleep and rest.

He initially checked Ruan Ruan’s cultivation progress in the Qingming Realm occasionally, but found that Ruan Ruan worked even harder than himself.

Since the Jilei Bamboo Sea would absorb Star Power and convert it into a large amount of Thunder Elements, Ruan Ruan could recharge by devouring the Thunder Elements in the Bamboo Sea, self-sufficient.

Despite the lower efficiency compared to directly absorbing Star Stones, it saved a lot of Star Stones.

Ruan Ruan practiced whenever she had energy, primarily focusing on the Three Heads and Six Arms technique and the newly acquired Sea and Sky Realm.

Both skills required rigorous practice and ample combat talent; otherwise, they were challenging to master.

In this manner, Su Yuan and Ruan Ruan spent several days in cultivation without leaving the hotel…

That noon, just past 12 o’clock, the talisman on Su Yuan’s body lit up again.

“It’s here, the Wave Viewing Tower…”

The talisman provided a location, the Wave Viewing Tower in the western part of the city.

Su Yuan nodded, glanced at Ruan Ruan still practicing in the Qingming Realm, and immediately used his phone to locate the place and headed there.

The Wave Viewing Tower was one of North Pole City’s landmark buildings, over twenty stories high.

In a city with predominantly flat buildings like North Pole City, this height was considerably high, offering a view of a large green lake to the west and the outskirts beyond the city.

“This Wave Viewing Tower is quite bustling.”

Su Yuan observed the tall building, then walked in and went straight to the top-level private room, knocked on the door, and entered.

To his surprise, there were already four people inside.

Sitting at the main seat was a middle-aged man with an unfathomable aura, dressed in a black robe with a small yet dignified Azure Dragon insignia at his collar.

Behind him stood a stern and serious-looking black-faced middle-aged man.

To the left and right sat a cold-looking young man and a capable yet sexy woman in her late twenties.

The middle-aged man in the main seat spoke, “Have a seat. We’re waiting for one more.”

Su Yuan nodded and sat next to the cold young man.

However, as he got closer, Su Yuan felt a faint sense of familiarity.

The cold young man also looked over with a hint of curiosity.

Upon exchanging glances, both Su Yuan and the cold young man’s curiosity turned into surprise.

“It’s that White Tiger Masked Man?”

Su Yuan realized this was the person he traded the Sea and Sky Realm with at the small trading event a few days ago.

Although they wore animal masks then, as Shining Star Level experts, it wasn’t hard to recognize each other at such close proximity.

Meeting here again was quite the coincidence.

The brief exchange of glances between Su Yuan and the cold young man didn’t go unnoticed by the woman opposite, who slightly curved her lips with a thoughtful expression in her eyes.

Su Yuan discreetly observed the others, pondering inwardly.

Undoubtedly, the middle-aged man in the main seat was an expert from the Sky Patrol Department. Judging by the Azure Dragon insignia at his collar, he might be the Azure Dragon Imperial Envoy.

Su Yuan couldn’t gauge the man’s strength, but at least he was Radiant Moon Level.

The black-faced middle-aged man standing behind him should also be a top expert of the Great Flame Official and likely related to the task at hand.

The cold young man and the woman below seemed to be here for the entry assessment task, just like himself.

“I didn’t expect it to be a team task…”

Su Yuan initially thought it was a solo task, but it appeared to be a team task now.

The Azure Dragon Imperial Envoy expert on the main seat mentioned one more person, making it a four-member task…

While more people were involved, which wasn’t necessarily a good thing.

Firstly, Su Yuan was used to working independently.

Secondly, more members implied a higher difficulty for the task.

“Looks like it might be quite challenging.”

About ten minutes later, the room’s door opened again, and a burly man over six feet tall with a rough and rugged aura entered.

“Hey, so many people!”

The burly man walked in and sat beside the capable woman with a thud.

Seeing the burly man, the woman’s pupils contracted, and a vigilant look flickered in her eyes.

Once the burly man sat down, the Sky Patrol Department expert in the main seat spoke, “My name is Xu Fengtian, the Azure Dragon Imperial Envoy of the Sky Patrol Department. Since everyone is here, let’s verify identities first.”

In the Sky Patrol Department, the ranks from bottom to top were Special Envoy, Envoy, and Imperial Envoy. Each rank required completing promotion tasks or accumulating enough merits to advance.

Generally, Envoys were of Radiant Moon Level and above, though not all Radiant Moon Level individuals were Envoys.

Hearing this, everyone took out a talisman.

Su Yuan also placed the talisman given by Hou Wu on the table.

Xu Fengtian picked up each talisman to verify them.

“Tang Jiao, Xuanwu Imperial Prelim.”

The woman straightened up and respectfully saluted, “Tang Jiao, greetings, Envoy Xu!”

Su Yuan and the others’ expressions changed slightly at this.

Her salute was a standard military salute, clearly indicating she was an elite selected from the military for the entry assessment.

If not for the military salute, Su Yuan and the others wouldn’t have guessed.

Xu Fengtian nodded, then picked up the talismans of the cold young man, Su Yuan, and the burly man in turn.

“Lin Chongyun, White Tiger Imperial Prelim.”

“Su Yuan, Vermilion Bird Imperial Prelim.”

“Xiong Chunyang, Azure Dragon Imperial Prelim.”

Su Yuan and the others also saluted in turn.

Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—it was intriguing that all four Imperials were present for this task, whether by coincidence or design.

After confirming their identities, Xu Fengtian explained the task.

“This entry assessment is a team task. The goal is to assist Manager Wu in transferring several prisoners to Yanluo Country.”

Prisoner transfer?

Su Yuan and the others immediately pondered.

Indeed, there were various cooperations among Great Flame, Yanluo, Black Snow, and other southern countries.

Mutual assistance in apprehensions was one of them.
