Opening the communicator, a message from the Stellar Training Camp regarding the trial mission points settlement appeared on the light screen.
"Ender Royce, you have received 150 points for the basic mission reward, and 100 points for ranking in the top three in the time trial."
"For the additional mission, you collected four extra targets, earning 30 points for each, totaling 120 points."
"Special Reward: Reporting the discovery of the plant life Toothed Grass to the Stellar Training Camp earns you a 1000-point reward!"
"This trial mission has earned you a total of 1370 points!"
Ender's eyes widened, somewhat in disbelief, "A special reward of 1000 points!"
1000 points!
This was a colossal amount of points he had never acquired before!
From the time he entered the Stellar Training Camp until this trial mission, the sum of all the points he had received probably hadn't exceeded 1000 points.
"It seems the Toothed Grass is quite valuable; otherwise, the Stellar Training Camp wouldn't give such a high point reward."
Ender thought this, but then his expression subtly changed, "If I remember correctly, the Blood Edge Blade's exchange price is around eight hundred points, and the Blood Edge Blade sells for about eight million molten rock coins outside, which means one point equals ten thousand molten rock coins."
"I don't understand the value of Toothed Grass, but even if its growth is poor, it surely wouldn't be less than one hundred million molten rock coins."
"One hundred million molten rock coins is ten thousand points, and now the Stellar Training Camp is only giving a reward of 1000 points. The difference is too great!"
Although he felt a slight resentment, Ender also knew that if he didn't report it to the Stellar Training Camp, even if he subdued the Toothed Grass, he wouldn't be able to take it with him.
It was normal for the Stellar Training Camp to offer a 1000-point reward and profit from the difference in value. Although the difference was quite large, thinking that the Virtual Universe Company had also done similar things, Ender's mind found balance.
"In the original work, Luo Feng seemed to have suffered a similar loss."
With his self-consolation finished, he began to consider how to use such a large amount of points.
The points obtained from this trial mission totaled 1370, plus his previous remaining 124 points, bringing his total to 1494 points.
Closing the points settlement interface, Ender opened the exchange interface and murmured, "I now have 1494 points, which is more than enough. I definitely need to exchange for a Second-Order Force Armor."
He found the Force Armor exchange interface and spent 803 points to exchange for a Second-Order Force Armor.
Next, he spent 480 points to exchange for nutrient cabin enhancements. "Besides the Second-Order Force Armor, my Gene Energy Rank also needs to be strengthened."
These 480 points were used for two enhancements: 160 points to enhance to Stellar Rank Five, and 320 points to enhance to Stellar Rank Six.
"Once I return to the Sand Sea Stellar Cultivation Camp, I'll undergo nutrient cabin enhancement. With my Gene Energy enhanced to Stellar Rank Six, my Spiritual Master Rank will reach Stellar Rank Eight."
"With my 32-fold life gene level and Stellar Rank Eight Spiritual Master Rank, my basic strength won't be inferior to Universe Level First Order."
"Compared to a Universe Level First Order with a Third-Order Spirit Weapon, my strength might be much weaker, but self-preservation won't be an issue. Now I can finally contact my Family with peace of mind!"
Ender was excited. He had always restrained his desire to contact his Family. For two years since entering the Stellar Training Camp, he hadn't actively contacted them.
Because he was afraid, afraid that if he died during a trial mission, it would grieve his Family, so he had minimized his presence!
Conversely, his Family had tried to contact him many times, but communication with the outside world was cut off when the Stellar Training Camp was conducting trial missions, so they couldn't contact Ender often.
Now, having sufficient self-preservation ability, he could finally contact his Family with peace of mind.
"I'll contact Father once I return to the Sand Sea Stellar Cultivation Camp!"
If it weren't for the communicator's connection with the outside world being cut off, Ender would have wanted to talk to his father and mother right now!
...
Sand Sea Star.
A D-class spaceship arrived at Sand Sea Star, and Ender, Ian, Rolando, and others returned to the Sand Sea Stellar Cultivation Camp.
He first picked up his Second-Order Force Armor along the way, and then returned to his dormitory.
Back in his dormitory, Ender put on his Second-Order Force Armor and eagerly opened his communicator to contact his father, Derrick.
Beep!
The communicator connected, and his father Derrick's familiar face appeared on the light screen.
"Eleven..."
His father Derrick's face appeared only for a moment before his mother Wendy pushed him aside, just as he began to speak.
His mother Wendy's eyes were a little moist. "Eleven, you finally decided to contact us actively."
"Mother," Ender called out gently, saying, "When I first arrived at the Stellar Training Camp, I was weak and busy Cultivating. Now my strength is very strong, and I will contact the Family often in the future."
His mother Wendy looked at her son, who had grown so much, feeling a pang of sadness. She longed to touch her son's face as she used to, but it was difficult now, as they were separated by a great distance.
Seeing his wife's distressed expression, Derrick quickly stepped forward to change the subject, "Eleven, your timing for contacting us is perfect. Your fourth sister is getting married tomorrow."
"Fourth sister is getting married..." Hearing this, Ender was filled with emotion. "Yes! Fourth sister is almost ten years older than me; it's time for her to marry."
The last time he saw his fourth sister was at Morning Light Academy. At that time, because the Family faced the crisis of losing their ranch, he had been diligently Cultivating, and only saw his fourth sister a few times in passing.
And his fourth sister probably knew about his pressure, rarely contacted him, and tried not to disturb his Cultivating.
Ender asked, "Where is Fourth Sister's husband from?"
"His name is Joshua. He's from the Xi Li Er Tribe on the grassland, a direct descendant of a Stellar Rank in that Tribe, and he just came out of the Special Training Camp," Derrick replied.
Ender thought carefully, "Joshua, I think there was a student named Joshua with Fourth Sister when I saw her at Morning Light Academy once..."
"If it really is that Joshua, then Fourth Sister's marriage is considered a love match, and she will be much happier in the future."
Fourth Sister's personality was relatively steady and strong. If it were a marriage of convenience, she would likely not be happy; a love match would be much better.
"Father, please congratulate Fourth Sister for me." Ender thought for a moment and finally made a decision. "Give Sky Piercing Sword to Fourth Sister as a wedding gift."
"Eleven, are you really sure?" Derrick frowned slightly. Although Sky Piercing Sword was a damaged Spirit Weapon, it was still a gift from Little One, and he didn't expect him to just re-gift it to his forth sister.
"Yes." Ender nodded gently, his past thought firm in his mind: "I will do my best to revive Big Brother!"
"You're not planning to contact your Fourth Sister?" Derrick asked.
"Of course, I am." Ender said, "Fourth Sister has already Broken through to Planetary Level and has her own communicator. I'll just contact her directly later."
"Okay." Derrick nodded, then closed the communicator.
Looking at the light screen that closed up and disappeared, Ender was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected his father to end the call so quickly; he was still planning to chat with his mother.
On the other side of the light screen, his mother Wendy was fuming...
