I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 585: The Only Choice

In the command center's private chamber on the Xia side of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, a youth sat bolt upright on a couch, eyes locked on the azure holographic projection before him.

"From the latest intel on the Insect Race, I can wipe them out as long as time's on my side, but I can't rule out unexpected mishaps. I'm reaching out to you because if I'm not back in half a month, you have to make arrangements for me."

Should a real man of this era shrink back in fear?

Now that Blue Star has entered the view of the Upper-Rank Gods, its future path is bound to be extraordinary from here on.

To boost individual power and Blue Star's total fighting strength, raising the Planet Will's level is the sole path, unlocking greater potential.

All professionals who've battled on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms understand that stepping into that passage means no coming back.

That's precisely why humanity has yet to venture into other galaxies, stuck dealing with threats from mere ordinary ones.

No one can shirk this vital task.

As the proverb states, greater power brings greater duty.

Lin Yi, the ultimate all-rounded powerhouse, feels compelled to step up.

Xu Sheng and Zhou Heyu appeared on the other side of the Communication Spirit Crystal.

After the Divine Envoy crisis on Blue Star was settled, Xu Sheng's condition steadily improved. The healers from life professions linked it to Blue Star’s Planet Will ascending.

Cases had emerged where Blue Star patients with terminal life force depletion began healing spontaneously.

Zhou Heyu had been swamped since War God-level powerhouses emerged in the Professional Alliance.

Though Xia was now forging its own War God-level experts, their worth had dipped slightly from past heights, but they remained crucial firepower for Xia.

Tracking and registering these War Gods proved a massive hassle, keeping the Taidou War God occupied nonstop.

With Xia leading Blue Star overall, every fresh War God from other nations had to report in, ballooning the workload beyond imagination.

They ignored most issues.

Yet Lin Yi's passage crossing tied to his safety and Blue Star’s destiny, so despite their piles of work, Xu Sheng and Zhou Heyu dropped everything to focus on it.

Lin Yi's assessment rang true and logical.

Blue Star's data on Insect Hive Star showed no elite-tier fighters; their edge lay purely in overwhelming numbers.

For Lin Yi, with near-endless recovery and peak personal might on Blue Star, that numerical superiority meant nothing. Thus, him soloing Insect Hive Star stood as the optimal plan.

"Isn’t soloing too risky?"

"The Insect Race horde on Nest Insect Star must be horrifyingly vast. Why not dispatch a squad to back you up?"

Though Xu Sheng trusted Lin Yi's safety, he yearned to contribute more.

Lin Yi dismissed the idea with a headshake.

A team trailing him offered zero real aid.

His [Nameless Void] skill let him spam it endlessly, corrupting anything below Tier Six and securing his survival effortlessly.

Bringing others? Their fates grew uncertain.

Lin Yi's stats crushed same-level foes, letting him brush off common Insect Races.

Others lacked that luxury.

Teamwork might amp up firepower in fights, but it'd only drag Lin Yi down.

"No, it'll just be me for now."

Lin Yi firmly rejected Xu Sheng's kind offer.

Right before cutting the connection, Xu Sheng held him back.

"One more thing, Lin Yi—if you've got a moment, head back to Shenxiao. Wanchong Mountain has great tidings: Sun Dachuan advanced in the Forging Skill."

"Swing by Shenxiao when possible; an extra strength boost means more security for your missions."

This jogged Lin Yi's memory.

Since grasping the expanded worldview, he hadn't revisited Shenxiao.

Strength gains often hinged on gear too. Upgrading his set to complete the All Heavens Destruction Set would skyrocket his power sans skills to insane heights.

He nodded at the holographic image.

"Understood, relay to the principal that post-mission, I'll carve out time for school. Tell him not to fret."

Xu Sheng and Zhou Heyu launched into more earnest reminders. Lin Yi absorbed them all before ending the link.

Exiting the exclusive lounge, Tier Nine Xia professionals awaited outside.

Clad in crisp Xia Professional Alliance Army uniforms, they snapped to attention and saluted upon spotting Lin Yi.

"Hail, Lord Lin Yi~"

Hearing elders address him as 'lord' stirred a mix of amusement and resignation in Lin Yi.

Despite repeated clarifications, Xia's soldiers stuck to the title, so he quit protesting.

"Greetings, tell your commander I'm off to Insect Hive Star. Hold the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms' front steady in my absence—no slip-ups."

In a flash, Lin Yi vanished, trailing sparks of crackling thunder.

Meanwhile, Nangong Su found himself mobbed by comrades.

Xia reinforcements had witnessed Nangong Su's chumminess with Lin Yi, casually dubbing him Xiaoyi.

Who in Xia dared such familiarity?

Not even top Xia brass used that moniker publicly before cameras.

"Mr. Nangong, what's your tie to Lord Lin Yi? How do you call him that without backlash?"

"Yeah, Mr. Nangong, spill it! Lord Lin Yi's the hero who elevated Blue Star—we'd kill for his signature. With your closeness, could you snag one for us?"

Nangong Su reveled in the spotlight from fellow fighters.

Their zeal delighted him, so he dove in with gusto.

"Haha, since you're all dying to know, I'll spill. Everyone recalls Xiaoyi got special admission to Shenxiao, entering Nuwa Academy. My daughter's enrolled there too..."
