This time, Zhang Che worked until the sky was completely dark outside before the new tunnel was connected .
Similar to the old cave entrance, Zhang Che did some work to the entrance of the old tunnel, not leaving any traces of it behind .
From now on, the treasure cavern would belong to only Zhang Che himself!
------
With a splash, Zhang Che crawled out of the pond . He took off the Swamp Crocodile King armor, revealing a bright smile .
"Although there's no way to transport all the purple-gold crystals in the cavern out in the short-term, I'll surely have a chance to get my hands on a spatial storage item in the future!"
Zhang Che had made up his mind . In the future, he'd remain here at the outskirts of the mountain range and hunt three-star and four-star exotic beasts . He could return home once he obtained one or two three-star gold-quality beast cards and raised his beastmaster tier to Tier Four .
Although the university enrollment test would take place in the latter half of June, Zhang Che had to get back a few days in advance . Otherwise, if there were any changes, Teacher Han wouldn't be able to find him, and he might miss this opportunity .
Zhang Che had a large amount of purple-gold crystal ore on his hands now, and could cure his mother's illness by setting up a reward, thus whether he enrolled into university wasn't an issue . However, he felt that this method should only be used as a last resort .
After all, Zhang Che firmly believed in one principle: if you didn't have the ability to protect what you had, you should try your best to not expose it, or you'd be fraught with trouble .
Back on Earth, he had read countless cases of businessmen having everything taken away from them . Although there might be some fake news in there, there was still a lesson to be learned from them!
This was a world where strength reigned supreme . The so-called law and justice were nothing but empty words to those who were high up in the hierarchy . If they discovered any great benefits they could take, did anyone really think they would play nice and abide by the so-called law?
Perhaps only kids would believe in that!
Therefore, the matter about him having purple-gold crystals must not be casually exposed, unless he had no other choices left . It might not be safe even after using the Myriad Transformation Lizard card to change his identity!
------
Coming out of the cave, the sky had turned completely dark long ago .
Fortunately, Zhang Che had made preparations earlier and prepared a gutted exotic beast . He only needed to start a bonfire outside the cave and he could start roasting it .
Considering that both the frisky monkey and the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon had huge appetites, and that his food supply was only a single exotic beast, Zhang Che had very selfishly kept his pets contained in his spiritual sea . He worked by himself for some time, roasting the bull-like exotic beast over the fire until it was cooked and started feasting on it, taking huge mouthfuls at a time .
Regrettably, there were not much salt left in his bag of spices after his unrestrained roasting over the past few days . The meat was considerably less tasty .
"It looks like I can't let those two gluttons have any roasted meat for the next few days, either . This little bit of salt isn't going to last . "
As such, Zhang Che began fantasizing about how long it would be before he finally obtained a spatial storage item beast card .

Even so, this was still something left up to chance . One could only imagine the rarity of a spatial storage beast card . It was comparable to that of a healing-type beast card . It might be even rarer than that!
"I can only take this one step at a time . At the most, I'll order a super large-sized backpack . I have superhuman strength now, anyway; it's not like I can't carry it . "
------
It was another night of good sleep .
Considering that he had no way of bringing the purple-gold crystal mineral out to the real world, Zhang Che didn't continue mining . The entire cavern was his, anyway . There would be plenty of time for that in the future .
The next morning, Zhang Che slept in until he woke up naturally . After he woke up, he had the frisky monkey carry the Falling Star Model X and follow behind him, as he equipped the Swamp Crocodile King armor and used the Rotten Ent Prowler whip to pull him through the tunnel .
"I'd better widen the tunnel when I have time in the future . It's not really a solution to slide my way out everytime…"
Today was the tenth of June .
Walking out of the cave, Zhang Che embraced the sunlight, his lips curled up into a smile .
He had everything planned out . He'd kill as many three-star or higher exotic beasts as required and return to Mercury as soon as possible, in case there were any changes to the enrollment test .
With that, the exotic beasts in the nearby mountains were in for a thoroughly bad time .
Although Zhang Che didn't have any gold-quality beasts among his Original Combat Body fighters, the Purple Jade Condor and the Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander were both three-star dark gold-quality beasts .

The two of them were in control of both the land and air, akin to overlords of the outskirts of the mountain range . If they worked together, they had nothing to fear even if they encountered an exotic beast of the same level and quality, and could even slay it .
Moreover, Zhang Che still had an extremely capable pet: the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon!
With such a powerful team, they were simply unbeatable in the outskirts, destroying every exotic beast in their paths .
Currently, Zhang Che needed to kill several hundred more three-star exotic beasts to advance to Tier Four . It might sound like a lot, but it wouldn't take more than a few days if he put his mind to it . The only thing he had to worry about was the lack of three-star exotic beasts for him to kill .
In the outskirts of this mountain range, the one thing that was the most abundant was three-star and four-star exotic beasts .
Zhang Che could employ the Scarlet Flame Drake once he advanced to Tier Four . Just thinking about it stirred him up .
Without a doubt, the Scarlet Flame Drake, whose specialty was wielding flames, was a top-tier existence among beasts of the same level and quality in terms of offensive power . Moreover, the Scarlet Flame Drake was also a beast that excelled in close combat .
"If I wasn't in a rush to return for the enrollment test, I could really try venturing deeper into the mountain range when I advanced . Perhaps I might even come across some huge gains if I did . . . "
------
On this day, Zhang Che led his subdued beasts and pets, sweeping the three-star or higher exotic beasts in the surrounding dozen kilometers . The results of his conquest were illustrious, slaying close to two hundred exotic beasts, and obtaining around fifty beast cards .
Of those, there were four silver-quality cards, while the rest were black iron and bronze quality . It was a pity that there were no gold-quality cards .

The next day, Zhang Che renewed his efforts and expanded his hunting area . He swept over the surrounding fifteen kilometers, obtaining another few dozen beast cards, and finally got a three-star gold-quality beast card .
