"Thank you for your help, everyone. The beast tide had finally ceased."

Everyone who participated in resolving the beast tide received a message from the A.I. of Base 355. They were also given a small remuneration of 1000 Credits.

Besides that, the beasts that they have killed will not be collected by the military. They have all the rights to dispose of it as they like.

At most, the beast corpses are sold to the manufacturing firms to be used as materials for weapon forging as well as ingredients for food.

The weapons are graded A, B, C, and D. A grade weapons are usually used by Admirals, B grade weapons are usually used by Generals, and so on.

Aside from weapons, all equipment and foods were also graded as such. And everyone who can buy them can have them.

Allen and the other trainees also received cash but they did not sell the corpse of the beast that they killed. Instead, they submitted it for the competition.

In the past week, after Allen\'s confrontation with the demonic beasts, he no longer hunted for beasts as intense as before.

He only killed a few. But, despite that, he submitted a total of one thousand beasts and gained 1300 points for the competition.

Of course, despite joining the competition, Allen did not forget to go on meditation classes. He skipped all the other classes but not the meditation class.

Currently, his only source of information regarding the inner world and inner body was the meditation class. Almost all of the information that Instructor Jaya shares is essential for him.

After Allen\'s meditation class, he went to his dormitory and sent an eye of the spirit to look at the leaderboard of the competition.

For some reason, the military did not put the leaderboard online. Instead, they were posted on the mission halls of the camps.

The Mission Hall of Camp 03-355 was very crowded since it was the closest to the beast tide.

Allen was thankful that he has the eyes of the spirit or else he also needs to go to the crowded Mission Hall.

But most of all, he was thankful that he was divine. As a divine, he had the advantages that were innate to him.

The first placer was, of course, none other than our Divine Spirit of Life and Death. He has a total of 1300 points.

Then, the second has 690 points. He was someone from Camp 01-355. The third has a total point of 565 from Camp 02-355. Drew has a total point of 498, Elioenai got the fifth place with a total point of 458 and Thomas got the seventh place with a total of 389 points.

Drew\'s ability was more convenient in the wilderness than Elioenai and Thomas\' ability.

Thomas\' ability was disadvantaged, but because of Allen\'s divine energy he still managed to enter the top ten.

Meanwhile, Jeremy was at a loss because the tenth got 350 while he got 347. He nearly made it, and thought full of regrets, "if only I prayed more and became more faithful."

Although Jeremy was oblivious, he had become Allen\'s follower. Only a bit more, he, too, will form a seed of faithfulness.

Moreover, his seed of faithfulness is unlike the other four, his will be naturally made.

The door in Allen\'s room opened as Willem, Jimmy, and Durwin entered.

They stared at him speechlessly. They just came from the mission hall and saw Allen\'s name at number one.

They rubbed their eyes a few times. But, no matter how they rubbed them, Allen\'s name did not disappear.

Allen stared back at them and smiled. He had guessed what they were thinking with their expression.

He knew that they had seen the leaderboard but he did not care.

In his eyes, they were puny. But on second thought, if Allen played his cards well, he could make them his followers. And maybe, they would become his busybodies.

Allen smiled as he thought of that. Then, he started planning, he commanded the eyes of the spirit to watch over the three. But as to what his real plan with them is, he, too, is oblivious of it.

"Allen, you\'re cool, man," Willems said, full of admiration.

Not only him, although Jimmy and Durwin did not say it, they, too, were full of admiration. Their only regret was that they made the wrong start.

Allen and the three of them chatted but after a while, Allen received a message.

Messages on his watch were very rare. Most of it came from the A.I., some were from his instructors. He rarely got a message from peers. Well, he did not have many peers in the first place.

Most of them were his followers, and they were contacting him through prayers.

"Allen Godfre, you are summoned to the principal\'s office."

After seeing the message, Allen already knew what it was for. Thus, he bid them farewell and left.

Just as Allen arrived at the door of the office, it immediately opened as the A.I. recognized Allen.

Allen entered and felt Colonel Lukas\' suppressive aura. He looked around and saw three other familiar figures. It was his three bearers in the camp.

"You three may leave now."

Although Colonel Lukas did not make it obvious, Allen could feel his happiness.

Allen walked near the principal and took a seat. This might be rude but Allen did not care. He did not fear him.

Seeing Allen\'s actions, Colonel Lukas was displeased. Only a few trainees dared to be this disrespectful to him and those trainees were either punished or sent to the frontline ahead of time.

Although he knew that all geniuses had pride, he planted hatred deep in his heart.

Unbeknownst to him, it was not because of a geniuses\' pride, but because of the divine spirit\'s pride.

Colonel Lukas took out a ring and placed it on the table.

"That is your storage tool. Take it. You will be called to pick three treasures in the base\'s treasury."

Allen took the ring and wore it in his middle finger.
