"Are you saying the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall is North Huiyi? And now Yakro is one of them?" Bert was slightly surprised.

Earth Star Pharmaceuticals, as a super enterprise in the Celestial River Region, was naturally familiar with the infamous North Huiyi, who was always active in the Wraith Mountain Range.

It was unexpected that the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall turned out to be the elusive Grey-clad people in the northern Wraith Mountain Range.

"That's right." Priscilla nodded, "Now you should understand why we can't just arrest them, right?"

If it were any other small organization, she wouldn't care, considering Earth Star Pharmaceuticals' unique potions were also of great help to her. If her supply were intentionally reduced, she'd have nowhere to turn.

However, North Huiyi poses a significant problem for Domain City, after all, they are a force even the Smiling Skull finds troublesome in the Wraith Mountain Range.

Such a force, ranked among the top in various major cities within the Mist Mountain Region, cannot be dealt with lightly.

If Earth Star Pharmaceuticals starts arresting people without evidence, it could shake the foundations of Domain City.

"Alright, I'll report this matter to the higher-ups." Bert sighed helplessly at the serious Priscilla, "Then, before we head to Mist Mountain Prison, we can stay in Chasing Light City for a while, right?"

"Of course, that is the freedom of you and your group, Bert." Priscilla smiled in response to Bert's resignation.

Priscilla then proceeded to arrange accommodations and cultivation rooms for Bert and his group, keeping busy for two to three hours before she returned to the Special Level cultivation room dedicated to Domain City personnel at the Martial Artist Association.

Inside the cultivation room, as Priscilla opened the door, she found a Half-Scale Race man already sitting cross-legged on the ground, clearly waiting for her.

"Senior Brother, Bert hasn't left the association, right?" Priscilla asked.

"In my perception, he hasn't left, but a group of youngsters did run out." The Half-Scale Race man replied blandly, "Probably planning to secretly capture someone. Should we send people over?"

"I just knew that guy Bert wouldn't give up." Priscilla sighed, shaking her head slightly, "However, as long as Bert himself doesn't go, there's no need for us to waste manpower. Although Earth Star Pharmaceuticals' geniuses are formidable, some even on par with talents like Holy Blood Mercenary Corps' Tu An, the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall isn't weak either. When those geniuses hit a wall, they'll settle down for a while, so we'll leave them be."

Having witnessed the strength of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall herself, she knew that even with numbers, the geniuses of Earth Star Pharmaceuticals couldn't easily gain the upper hand over the disciples of the hall.

Moreover, within the city, prolonged battles are bound to alert the City Defense Corps. When that happens, the geniuses of Earth Star Pharmaceuticals, not wanting to be exposed, would naturally retreat, so she saw no need to bother with it. Let the Chasing Light City's Defense Corps deal with the headache later.

The Half-Scale Race man, seeing Priscilla's refusal to deploy people, remained silent and continued his cultivation.

This task was assigned to Priscilla by Domain City as part of cultivating talents, while he was merely a guard and wouldn't make any decisions.

As night fell, at the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.

A group of young men and women, shrouded in black cloaks that completely concealed their appearance and each wearing Tier Two Battle Armor, gathered in an abandoned building less than two kilometers away from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, watching every movement within the hall.

"Shadow Fang, have you found the target?" a tall, thin, Three-Eyed Race youth asked in a low voice, "If you've found the target, we should almost take action. This is a test set by the higher-ups for us geniuses. If we can't complete it perfectly, it's hard to elevate our evaluation level within the company."

Earth Star Pharmaceuticals, as a super enterprise in the Celestial River Region, is quite aggressive in nurturing talents, with various internal resources tied to evaluation levels. The higher the level, the more resources one enjoys.

This level doesn't simply increase with the number of tasks completed. For those above level twenty, equivalent to an advanced researcher, each level upgrade depends on the quality of task completion. Poor performance can lead to demotion, even if the task is completed.

This mission to capture Yakro is considered a simple one, especially since their opponents are only Martial Artists in the Refining Organ and Bone Forging Realms. Compared to previous encounters with Blood Coagulation Realm experts in dangerous areas, it's insignificant, so they must complete the mission perfectly to possibly raise their evaluation level.

Anything less than an excellent evaluation means this task would be for nothing.

"I've found the target." The Half-Beast Race man called Shadow Fang lamented, licking his lips, "Such a pity for this beauty. To avoid the company's pursuit, not only did she change her name and appearance, but she also disguised herself completely differently, far less appealing than before."

"Indeed, although she still looks good now, comparing her to the previous visual records is like night and day." The Three-Eyed Race youth beside him nodded while peering through his binoculars, "No wonder Bert, who was once interested in her, shows no interest now."

"Fire Snake, let's make a move, quick and decisive. Lord Bert is still waiting." Shadow Fang then stashed away his binoculars.

"No worries, now that we've found her, she can't escape." The Three-Eyed Race youth was dismissive, "This so-called North Huiyi is merely a group praised by country bumpkins. If it weren't for the things within the Wraith Mountain Range, the Smiling Skull would have been gone long ago."
