“Yes, this is Planet Selma, and our objective is to eradicate the primitive inhabitants here! Let me first assess their strength!”
Xiaya chuckled, nodding to Xiling before swiftly ascending over 300 meters into the sky.
A panoramic view revealed a verdant, untamed wilderness; a lush jungle hemmed in by formidable mountains. From his elevated vantage point, Xiaya’s gaze settled upon a prominent rock cliff.
He tapped the ear-mounted, lens-type energy detector and activated the switch. A series of electronic beeps echoed, followed by data streams indicating position and energy levels on the lens display.
456,289,358,985,650…
An array of figures materialized before his eyes. As the numbers frequently blinked, Xiaya’s brow furrowed deeper, particularly when the figure '985' flashed by, prompting an involuntary exclamation.
“How can Planet Selma’s natives possess such high Battle Power?” Xiaya’s expression turned serious.
He had initially presumed Planet Selma to be a low-level world, where natives with 600-700 Battle Power would be considered exceptionally strong. However, the emergence of an individual with nearly 1000 Battle Power, a level approaching that of an intermediate planet, was unexpected.
Deactivating the detector, Xiaya turned to Xiling with a grave look and a strained smile. “It appears this mission will not be straightforward. According to the data I just gathered, there are over a hundred energy sources with Battle Power exceeding 400, nearly twenty with Battle Power above 800, and even some approaching 1000.”
“In short, the mission difficulty is exceedingly high; a moment’s carelessness could spell mortal peril. Damn it! This is clearly a mission meant only for High-level Warriors, yet it’s been assigned to us.”
Xiaya cursed inwardly but understood the reasoning behind Planet Vegeta assigning them this task—their exceptional performance in the training camp far surpassed that of even average High-level Warriors.
“Hey, what do we do now? Will we be stuck here indefinitely?” Xiling’s mood soured upon hearing the grim assessment. If the mission couldn’t be completed, they wouldn’t be allowed to return to Planet Vegeta, meaning a prolonged separation from her parents.
“A typical mid-level warrior would require at least six to seven years to reach 1000 Battle Power! However, our training methods are far more efficient than those of the average Saiyan; perhaps two to three years might suffice!” Xiaya stated calmly.
He had departed Planet Vegeta with a Battle Power of 410, while Xiling possessed 370. After more than seven months of interstellar travel, even with periods of hibernation, the normal physiological growth of Saiyans had led to a slight increase in their Battle Power.
Xiaya had just scanned their current levels.
His own Battle Power had reached 460, and Xiling’s had climbed to 420.
It was crucial to remember they were just over four years old; other Saiyans of their age typically possessed a mere 200 Battle Power.
“But that’s still a very long time!” Xiling’s voice was tinged with gloom, but then a surge of fighting spirit filled her. “Brother Xiaya, I won’t be lazy from now on and will train diligently.”
Xiaya looked at Xiling, her fighting spirit palpable, and nodded with a smile. It seemed pressure indeed fostered motivation. Xiling had finally taken the initiative to commit to training.
However, Xiling’s subsequent words revealed his elation was premature.
Xiling declared, “So, Brother Xiaya, you must work even harder! Reach 1000 Battle Power within two years, no, one year! That way, we can return home sooner.”
“Do you think Battle Power increases just by talking? Furthermore, we might not necessarily break through even in one or two years.”
With a disgruntled mood, Xiaya placed his palm on Xiling’s head, ruffling her soft hair until it was completely disheveled.
“How hateful! Stop messing with my hair!” Xiling suddenly exclaimed, a flash of ferocity in her eyes as she protested.
Xiaya surveyed their surroundings. “Well, let’s set aside the mission for the moment. I suspect we’ll be here for a considerable duration, so our initial priority should be to relocate the spacecraft to a secure location and conceal it. Afterward, we’ll address the issues of food and shelter. To be honest, my stomach is already growling with hunger.”
“Yes! In fact, I’ve been feeling hungry for quite some time now.”
The mention of food instantly brightened Xiling’s eyes, casting her previous worries aside.
With a helpless shake of his head, Xiaya joined Xiling in their search of the adjacent mountain range. They eventually pinpointed a serene location nestled beside a colossal cliff, close to a pool and not excessively far from a canyon.
“The ambiance here is superb; we can establish a temporary dwelling,” Xiaya remarked, surveying the secluded and tranquil vista, a look of contentment gracing his eyes.
Gently summoning the energy within his physique, he condensed a ball of deep-blue energy within his palm. With a surge of pleasure, he then deliberately hurled it towards a nearby cliff face.
“Bang!” A ferocious explosion echoed, and a plume of smoke billowed forth from a substantial cave, approximately five meters wide, that had unexpectedly materialized on the sheer rock.
Subsequently, Xiaya returned to the site where the spacecraft had crash-landed. He then proceeded to drag the wreckage and its occupants to the cliff, ensuring their concealment within the newly formed cave.
It is imperative that these are safeguarded, as their condition directly impacts their ability to depart Planet Selma.
After concealing the spacecraft, Xiaya made a series of flights into the wild forest, gathering dry vegetation. He then proceeded to fashion a rudimentary shelter within the cave.
With these preparations complete, Xiaya clapped his hands together, casting a satisfied gaze upon their new 'home'.
“Though somewhat basic and unrefined, it at least presents as a habitable space. I certainly didn't anticipate engaging in a literal Wilderness Survival scenario upon arriving here. Our next priority is to procure sustenance.”
“Xiling, both you and I shall embark on a hunt. Today, you will have the opportunity to sample your brother's prowess.”
“Uh-huh!”
The mention of food elicited an eager nod from Xiling.
Following this, Xiaya reactivated the energy detector. Upon emitting a beeping sound, they ascended and flew towards the southeast. In that direction, approximately five miles away, resided an energy source registering a mere 67 Battle Power – a viable candidate for their next meal.
Venturing into the southeast, Xiaya soon located the energy signature. It materialized as an imposing Earth Dragon, standing ten meters tall.
“An Earth Dragon! We'll be able to eat our fill,” Xiaya declared, a grin spreading across his face.
“Roar - !”
The Earth Dragon, likewise spotting the two figures suspended in the air, charged at them with a thunderous roar, much like a predator encountering its prey. As the undisputed ruler of the immediate vicinity, the Earth Dragon’s deafening roar startled the surrounding wildlife, causing a giant bird to lurch in surprise. Ya Ya Ya.
