Upon leaving the Poison Mist Lake Valley, the Eye Hawk immediately spotted the China Team.
Knowing that the China Team had safely emerged, Governor Fabio felt somewhat relieved, but then, remembering that the Swedish Team had not yet come out, his heart tightened again.
"Have the stationed personnel go and ask the China Team if they encountered the Swedish Team," Fabio said.
"Understood, Governor!"
The staff member had just left when he returned.
"Governor, the Swedish Team is out!"
"Out? Why didn't I see them on the screen?" Fabio turned to look at the images transmitted by the Eye Hawk.
"They returned directly to the arena using a Spatial Scroll!"
… … …
In the battlefield, the Naska Divine Hound brought good news again: the battlefield treasure of this competition had also been found.
At this time, the America Team and the British Team were both fighting over it.
The China Team rushed to the scene.
Upon arriving at the destination, they saw the America Team and the British Team standing on opposite sides, swords drawn, with a brown stone box in the middle.
"The China Team," Arc of the America Team frowned upon seeing Jiang Yuan and the others.
The reason he hadn't interfered with the ambush using traps to encircle the China Team earlier was to let the other teams and the China Team suffer mutual losses.
The America Team could take this opportunity to quickly snatch treasures.
In this short period, they had already acquired over twenty million in valuable treasures.
Later, they found the battlefield treasure but ran into the British Team.
Now, the China Team had also arrived.
This meant that the ambush had failed.
Over a hundred people couldn't successfully ambush the China Team!
Thinking of this, Arc's pupils constricted sharply.
"What are you guys standing around for? Fight!" Mo Fan urged with a grin.
"Hmph, you China Team have already taken so many treasures, aren't you satisfied?" a delicate-looking blonde woman from the British Team said discontentedly.
It was Irene of the British Team.
"Sorry, treasures are exactly what we need," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
The people behind him didn't yet know that the stone box contained this year's battlefield treasure, thinking it was just a valuable item.
"The China Team is powerful. How about we unite to deal with them, and then discuss the distribution of the treasure? How about it?" Arc asked the British Team.
Irene glanced at her captain, Jerome.
Jerome's eyes flickered, and he nodded slightly.
"You guys fight. Our British Team is withdrawing from the competition," Irene said.
"What…" The other members of the British Team wanted to say something upon hearing this, but Jerome suppressed them.
"You guys can slowly fight over it here. We're leaving," Irene said with a wave and a smile.
After speaking, she led the British Team away quickly.
Suddenly, only the America Team and the China Team were left.
The faces of the America Team members were grim; they were stuck, neither advancing nor retreating.
The importance of the Treasure Hunt Competition was self-evident. In previous years, many young mages gained opportunities in the Treasure Hunt Competition that allowed them to advance to the Super-Order.
Now, they had only acquired tens of millions in treasures, and the most valuable treasure was right in front of them. How could they give it up so easily?
But the strength of the China Team was obvious, even the eleven-nation allied army had been completely defeated.
They definitely couldn't win by force.
It was also very likely that the remaining treasures they held would be taken away.
After weighing the pros and cons, Arc gritted his teeth and said, "We're leaving too!"
Looking at the retreating figures of the America Team, Jiang Yuan was not surprised at all.
If they had stayed there, that would have been truly foolish.
There are always people who would disregard everything for an opportunity, but thankfully, the America Team was not like that.
Mo Fan scurried over, took the stone box, and opened it in front of everyone.
Inside lay a golden fruit, perfectly pure without a single blemish.
Rather than a fruit, it was more like a golden gem in the shape of a fruit.
"What is this thing?" Jiang Yuan looked at Zhao Manyan.
Zhao Manyan stroked his chin, uncertainly saying, "It seems to be the Greece Wish Fruit?"
"Wish Fruit? A fruit that grants wishes?" Mo Fan became excited.
Wouldn't he wish to become a Mage God, possessing millions of beauties?
"Uh, I don't know the specific situation of this Wish Fruit. The Wish Fruit is highly sought after internationally. There are many rumors about its effects, saying it can increase the probability of breaking through the Forbidden Curse, grant an innate talent, awaken an additional magic element, accelerate the cultivation of spiritual power and magic energy… In short, there are many rumors, but almost all of them have been passed down from hundreds or thousands of years ago."
"In recent centuries, the exaggerated effects mentioned in the rumors have not appeared. However, it genuinely does increase cultivation speed; it can significantly boost cultivation speed for a period of time."
"Only one to three Wish Fruits can be produced every ten years, and their price is generally between 4.2 billion and 5.5 billion."
Listening to Zhao Manyan's words, Jiang Yuan picked up the Wish Fruit and carefully examined it. It was very cool to the touch, with a special energy attached to its surface.
Other than that, there was nothing else special.
But this price certainly matched the status of a treasure.
Both treasures were now in hand, and the remaining items weren't worth much. It was time to call it a day.
… … … … …
… … … … …
The Treasure Hunt Competition entered the ranking calculation phase.
Teams were ranked based on the total value of the treasures they obtained.
The China Team was undeniably ranked first, creating a gap of over ten billion with the second-place British Team!
The British Team had only acquired treasures worth a little over one hundred million.
The third-place America Team had only thirty million.
The teams behind them fared even worse, with some having a few million, and others having a big fat zero.
A string of zeros displayed on the screen made those teams feel their faces burning.
As for how to distribute the treasures, everyone in the China Team, including the instructors, awaited Jiang Yuan's opinion, with his distribution being the primary one.
After all, Jiang Yuan was the absolute main force of the Treasure Hunt Competition!
Before the distribution, Jiang Yuan first ate the Wish Fruit.
Upon eating it, he began to seclude himself.
During this period, the Parthenon Temple selected four candidates: Andre, Asha Ruiya, Penny Jia, and Ye Xinxia.
As in the original timeline, Andre died, causing a huge uproar.
However, as the National Government Competition reached its final stage, the excitement of the competition gradually overshadowed Andre's death.
People were discussing who the ultimate winner would be.
The China Team naturally had the highest support.
The previous matches had fully made them realize the strength of the China Team.
Although they didn't want the China Team to win, their strength was undeniable, and they had to admit it.
In everyone's eyes, the China Team, with its overwhelming strength, was bound to win the final championship!
Additionally, across the world, a ranking of the strength of the participating members began.
Jiang Yuan's name once again occupied the top spot.
In Europe, many Super-Order Mages even came forward to say that Jiang Yuan's strength had already reached Super-Level, and once he advanced to Super-Order, he would become the number one Super-Order Mage!
Others said that Jiang Yuan was the strongest young mage in the world, and no other young mage was his match.
Such remarks suddenly spread everywhere, with the vast majority originating from Western countries.
