Chapter 2533: Encounter! Le Tun’s Astonishment! Mining Grandmaster! (3)

Editor: Henyee Translations

Grandmaster Alfred immediately transmitted the events that had just occurred to Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others.

“To think there was such danger!” Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others’ expressions turned grave.

“That’s right. Fortunately, Grandmaster Wang Teng has an eternal-stage ruler protecting him,” Grandmaster Alfred lamented.

At the mention of this guardian, Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others were shocked. “It seems that Grandmaster Wang Teng has experienced quite a lot during his time away from the Great Qian Empire.”

“An eternal-stage ruler guardian!” Luo Tang and the other young grandmasters exchanged glances with one another. They were flabbergasted.

Even if they became saint-level secondary profession holders, they couldn’t have an eternal-stage guardian accompanying them at all times.

Faced with such a huge gap, they all felt a sense of frustration.

Even if they surpassed Wang Teng in secondary professions, they still couldn’t compare to him.

Moreover, in terms of secondary professions, they might not even be better than Wang Teng.

As they conversed, they walked into the hall on the second floor, where various-sized ores were displayed around. Figures surrounded these ores, discussing and evaluating them, creating a lively scene.

Wang Teng narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a sense of joy. He had already noticed several attribute bubbles floating around some people.

Get them!

Mining Skill*2oo

Mining Skill* 500

Mining Skill*35O

One by one, the attribute bubbles merged into Wang Teng’s body, entering his mind and turning into numerous insights, rapidly advancing his proficiency in mining.

“Mining Skill!” Wang Teng’s eyes gleamed as he looked at the attributes board.

Mining Engineer: 8200/10000 (Master)

“Well, I didn’t expect to reach the pinnacle of master level so quickly.” Wang Teng felt quite pleased.

His proficiency in mining was not particularly high among masters, but now, just by coming to this second-floor hall, he had gained so many attribute points, which was truly a cause for celebration.

Although reaching the pinnacle of master level in mining required a total of 10,000 attribute points, equivalent to the requirements for grandmaster level in secondary professions such as alchemy, forging, and rune crafting, it was relatively easier to advance in mining compared to those professions. Otherwise, Wang Teng wouldn’t know when he would reach that level.

“It’s a pity I don’t know if there are any grandmasters here. If there are, I should be able to advance to the grandmaster level today.” Wang Teng pondered, scanning the surroundings, and finally his gaze fell on Gu Luo. If there was no other choice, there was still him.

“Gu Luo, I’ll be watching your performance later.”

Wang Teng looked at him with an encouraging smile.

Gu Luo felt something was odd but couldn’t quite put his finger on it. He could only smile and nod. “Sure, sure.”

“We’ve just set our sights on a piece of ore. How about we go take a look together?” Grandmaster Hua Yuan suddenly spoke up.

“Oh?” Wang Teng was surprised. “You’ve found an ore you’re interested in? Then I must take a look”

“We’re not quite sure about it ourselves. That’s why we need your expertise. It’s quite a coincidence that you’re here.” Grandmaster Hua Yuan chuckled.

“I remember Grandmaster Wang Teng once found extraordinary items like the Lightning Essence Insect in the Great Qian Empire. I suppose your mining proficiency is quite impressive?” Grandmaster Harol asked.

“It’s passable.” Wang Teng smiled faintly.

“Grandmaster Wang Teng has some knowledge in mining as well!” exclaimed Grandmaster Luo Tang in astonishment.

“Just a little dabbling, just a little dabbling,” Wang Teng replied modestly. “Lightning Essence Insect!” A glint of surprise flashed in Gu Luo’s eyes as he spoke. “I didn’t expect Brother Wang Teng to have such a mining record. No wonder you’re so confident.”

“Perhaps not as confident as Brother Gu Luo,” Wang Teng chuckled.

Gu Luo remained noncommittal. He was already wary of Wang Teng at this moment and wouldn’t be as careless as he was during the last Void Fishing competition.

Being able to uncover extraordinary items like the Lightning Essence Insect showed that Wang Teng was no ordinary miner. It made their agreement to compete even more intriguing.

However, Grandmaster Wang Teng still believed in his abilities. With his mining proficiency already at the grandmaster level, he had previously unearthed treasures even more valuable than the Lightning Essence Insect. He didn’t think he was any less capable than Wang Teng.

Unfortunately, he didn’t know that during his time on the Five Burial Stars, Wang Teng had uncovered treasures even more valuable than the Lightning Essence Insect. The Lightning Essence Insect was already a thing of the past.

At this moment, Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others led Wang Teng to a piece of ore and conveyed through voice transmission.

“This is the piece of ore!”

Wang Teng nodded and turned his gaze to the ore before him.

This piece of ore was about four to five meters long and quite flat, resembling a long bench.

Instead of immediately activating his Real Eye, Wang Teng first used his mining engineer proficiency to assess the ore.

His proficiency had just been significantly boosted, and there were many experiences and pieces of knowledge waiting to be verified in his mind. He intended to test his skills.

Gu Luo also observed the ore with great interest, stroking his chin and circling it twice.

For some reason, he just wanted to win against Wang Teng this time, so he sought to compare himself with him in every aspect.

At this moment, Wang Teng’s gaze fell on Gu Luo’s side, and a faint smile curved his lips.

Dropped! They dropped!

Sure enough, attribute bubbles were dropping next to Gu Luo!

He immediately picked up the two attribute bubbles that had fallen.

Mining Skill*i200

Mining Skill*8oo

Mining Engineer: 200/30000 (grandmaster)

“Hahaha…” Wang Teng couldn’t help but burst into laughter as he saw the changes on the attributes board.

In an instant, he felt the experience and knowledge about mining in his mind rapidly expanding, crossing a threshold, and suddenly everything became clear, entering a whole new realm.

Grandmaster!

His proficiency in mining had finally reached the grandmaster level.

Although he had expected it earlier, he didn’t anticipate it would come so quickly.

And when he truly reached this level, he couldn’t contain the joy in his heart, the curve of his lips rising even more ecstatically.

Gu Luo truly lived up to being a grandmaster-level miner. Just by exerting a bit of effort, he dropped so many attribute bubbles that were useful to Wang Teng. “Wang Teng, have you figured anything out?” After a moment, Gu Luo approached Wang Teng with a smile.

“I’ve figured out a little bit. Brother Gu Luo must have some insights as well,” Wang Teng glanced at him and replied with a smile, feeling extremely pleased.

“Yes,” Gu Luo nodded, smiling. “Before our competition officially begins, how about we warm up a bit?”

“How do we warm up?” Wang Teng asked.

“Let’s each assess the value of this ore and see who’s more accurate, shall we?” Gu Luo suggested.

“Please,” Wang Teng made a gesture of invitation.

Gu Luo smiled. He knew that Wang Teng had agreed so he said excitedly, “Based on my judgment, this ore is worth 200 Chaos Coins.”

Naturally, he conveyed this message to Wang Teng and the others through voice transmission, as outsiders couldn’t hear.

“200 Chaos Coins!” Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others were astounded.

This price wasn’t low.

Although there were undoubtedly many treasures on the second floor, not every item held such value. Moreover, those who could come here were all exceptional individuals with extraordinary discernment. It wasn’t so easy to pick out treasures from their hands.

“Is this the price Brother Gu Luo has set?” Wang Teng asked.

Gu Luo raised an eyebrow, unsure if Wang Teng was trying to deceive him. He thought for a moment and nodded with a smile, “Of course.”

“Very well,” Wang Teng smiled and said, “In that case, I’ll set the price.”

“Please speak your mind, Brother Wang Teng,” Gu Luo said.

“This piece of ore is worth at most ten billion Universal Coins,” Wang Teng declared.

“Ten billion… UC?!” Everyone was shocked. They stared at Wang Teng in disbelief.

The price difference was huge!
