Through Genesis's camera equipment, players around the globe were paying close attention to this exploration of the Lost Land.
Even those countries without the chance to enter the Lost Land were extremely focused on this.
Could the championship really help humanity break through its current predicament, and would there be extremely high-grade class transfer materials appearing in the Lost Land?
If such things really appeared, then it's imaginable that the competition in the next championship would be far fiercer than this one.
The outside audience couldn't see the performance of each squad in the Lost Land; they could only view the gains of each team through the system screen.
The Fire God Squad and the Fishing Squad adopted the same tactic, splitting into several teams to explore separately.
Currently, the Fire God Squad had the most harvest.
Among the three sub-squads, Yuan Zhu and Su Nuannuan had opened three bronze treasure chests, one silver treasure chest, and one gold treasure chest.
Hu Yan and Ruan Yu opened four bronze treasure chests, two silver treasure chests, and two gold treasure chests.
In contrast, the captain Jiang Kai had only opened two bronze treasure chests so far.
On the Fishing Squad's side, Weiss and Green had opened five bronze and two gold chests, and three bronze, one silver, and one gold chest respectively.
Surprisingly, the Wizard Season Squad's harvest wasn't any less than the other two squads.
Their record was eight bronze, five silver, and three gold.
"What is Jiang Kai doing?", Jiang Lan frowned. He understood his second brother, when it came to finding treasure chests, Jiang Kai would absolutely go all out.
"Yeah, isn't Second Brother stronger than anyone else? They're all exploring solo, how is he doing so much worse than that Weiss and Green…", Jiang Ying sat by her big brother's hospital bed, watching the live broadcast video together.
Since they were kids, Second Brother had always been smarter than others, she didn't believe he'd fall that far behind others.

In the Jiangzhong Military District, Lu Jun's brows were tightly furrowed.
"What's going on with Jiang Kai…"
———
Jiang Kai was sprinting at full speed.
He had just recklessly opened a silver treasure chest, and the rate of the earth's collapse had increased again.
Now he was certain, in the escaping forest, every time a treasure chest was opened, the collapse of this place would accelerate.
The earth was collapsing rapidly behind him. He watched helplessly as treasure chests one after another fell into the lava with the crumbling ground.
"No… if I just keep running, won't the Lost Land be wasted," Jiang Kai gritted his teeth and said.
"Judging by the rate of ground collapse, I can probably still open four or five more chests. From now on, I'll only open gold or higher."
The exploration time in the Lost Land was only one hour, so all the teams were speeding up their exploration.
Each team's harvests were rapidly updating on the screen.
It's worth noting that, in the beginning, the Wizard Squad's harvest rate was not much different from the Fire God and Fishing Squads, but as time passed, their progress gradually fell behind.
After fifty minutes, the gains of each team started to slow down.
Fire God: 13 gold, 29 silver, 57 bronze.
Fishing: 11 gold, 23 silver, 41 bronze.
Wizard: 8 gold, 16 silver, 37 bronze.
Then, at that very moment, a purple treasure chest appeared one after another in the harvest lists of the Fishing Squad and the Wizard Squad.
So far, golden treasure chests were already capable of dropping level six class materials for certain professions. By that logic, purple treasure chests might contain even higher-grade class transfer materials.
At this thought, every country couldn't help but tense up.
"A level seven class is about to appear."
"A level seven class… With that, F Country and Y Country might break through their bottlenecks with a single powerful class."
"Are level seven class transfer materials really appearing? If it's just materials, it's fine. But if it's a full blueprint, that's huge."
"Even if it's just materials, each country's data research institutions aren't for show! They can reverse-engineer the blueprint! And now, there isn't much time left. Looking at it this way, even if Huaxia takes first place, the final winner might still be F Country and Y Country."
———
Wei Ying was so anxious he stood up from his seat and started pacing.
Lu Jun said, "General, Fire God hasn't found a purple chest yet."
"I don't know what's going on with Jiang Kai. Since he got three chests at the beginning, he hasn't made any more gains. And he hasn't died and gone offline… Could he be stuck in some trap?"
Wei Ying clasped his hands behind his back, his expression grim, "It's possible… The types of Lost Lands vary. Some might be low-risk, but others might still hold dangerous traps."
"It's just that, we finally secured first place, if we can't get level seven materials, it'll be a much smaller help for breaking through our bottleneck."
"Jiang Kai's value has decreased, which makes it easier for Black Tortoise's people to make a move on him!"
Lu Jun nodded silently.
Wei Ying sighed, "Even if level seven materials don't show up, if Jiang Kai can find his own class transfer materials, that'd be good enough…"

In a villa in the Jingxin Lake villa area of Jiangzhong City, Huang Wei and Huang Da were accompanying senior members of the Black Tortoise Guild to watch the live broadcast of the Lost Land exploration.
Huang Wei's gaze briefly swept past the five women in front of him.
One woman was sitting on the sofa facing the screen, while the other four young women stood behind her.
When they entered the room just now, Huang Wei had already noticed these five women.
The woman sitting on the sofa was thirty years old, but in Huang Wei's eyes, at least from appearance alone, one would never guess she was thirty.
Delicate skin, tall and sexy figure, long legs, fashionable clothes, if seen on the street, one might think she was only twenty.
As for the four women behind her, supposedly none of them were over twenty-four, each one more beautiful than the last.
Just then, Huang Da nudged Huang Wei's shoulder and looked sideways, "Don't get any ideas, those people aren't ones you can afford to provoke."
Huang Wei quickly lowered his head, not daring to look anymore.
The woman sitting on the sofa was none other than He Shishi, vice president of Jiangzhong City's Black Tortoise Guild, transferred here by the Black Tortoise main guild.
And the four behind her were the Four Season Flowers, all top talents from the War God Hall's reserve camp.
At that moment, He Shishi softly called, "Huang Wei?"
Huang Wei was momentarily stunned. Under Huang Da's urging, he hurriedly came to He Shishi's side.
He kept his head low, not daring to look directly at her, "Sister Shishi, you wanted to see me?"
"Lift your head so I can see you," He Shishi said lightly.
When Huang Wei looked up, he immediately saw the snowy skin on He Shishi's chest. His gaze then moved upward and landed on her exquisite face, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
However, Huang Wei still had a bit of sense, he knew this distant cousin sister wasn't someone easy to mess with, so he quickly lowered his head again.
"I say, Huang Wei, I heard you used to be very confident. Why are you so timid now?", He Shishi smiled calmly.
"Sister Shishi, I…"
"I know, it's Jiang Kai's fault. But Huang Wei, you should also understand, since I'm here, there's nothing to be afraid of anymore," The woman's tone carried an authoritative edge.
Then He Shishi stood up. Looking at the data on the screen, she curled her lips slightly, "One silver and two bronze. For the military, Jiang Kai's value ends here."
"As long as Wei Ying is transferred away, Jiang Kai will have no choice but to wag his tail at me, you tell me, what is there to fear?"
"Sister Shishi!", Huang Wei immediately became emotional, "I want to kill Jiang Kai's whole family! And that Jiang Fang too, I want to kill him!"
He Shishi slightly frowned, "Jiang Fang, I have plans for him. It'd be a waste to kill him for nothing. His death must serve Black Tortoise's interests."
"As for Jiang Kai's whole family, I'll give them to you when the time comes."
"Thank you, Sister Shishi, for avenging me," Huang Wei said quickly.
But He Shishi scoffed, "Avenge you? Hmph, Huang Wei, I'm not avenging you. I want everyone to see what happens when you offend our Black Tortoise!"
