The Ultimate Dissectors hunting team was experiencing a period of success and rapid growth after their third official hunting mission.

Against all odds, this new hunting team that was created by the new shark became the ultimate winner of the wide-scale hunting mission whose reward was an additional 5000 Shark points to the hunting team.

With an astonishing record of 4 purple tier predator kills, the looting of 1 magic weapon, and killing over 2500 predators who were below the purple tier, they overtook the 2nd placed team by a large margin.

Torpedum\'s Genius White hunting team came 2nd with 1 purple tier predator kill and over 2000 kills of predators below the purple tier.

Tungsten\'s Gigantic White hunting team came 3rd with 1 purple tier predator kill and over 2000 kills of predators below the purple tier.

Strong\'s Shark Power hunting team came 4th with 1 purple tier predator kill, and over 1500 kills of predators below the purple tier.

Using this massive spike in fame among the sharks of the clan, Elder Marble finally announced Sebastian\'s new status as the 4th young prodigy shark of the clan.

Of course, this announcement sent the members of the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team into a frenzy. They felt even more confident of their choice to join this team when the opportunity first opened up to them.

The spike in Sebastian\'s fame also translated to a spike in the hunting team\'s fame. That same evening, the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team ballooned to a size of 54 members, instantly becoming the hunting team with the most members.

This was because, unlike other hunting teams, Sebastian had little to no restrictions in the requirements to join the hunting team. Both genius sharks and not too exceptional sharks were all accepted into the hunting team.

From the predators alone that the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team got, it amassed 25,875 Shark points. The Spear of Doom magic weapon that Sebastian looted from his third purple tier opponent was given to the clan in exchange for 10,000 Shark points.

Adding these 2 figures together, the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team succeeded in getting 35,875 Shark points from a single hunting mission.

This was a record that exceeded the previous one by miles.

With this, even after sharing the shark points with all the members of his hunting team, Sebastian was still able to purchase the magic gadget that he wanted. 

That same day, he also exchanged for a magic weapon. Precisely, it was magic armor but it was still classified into the categories of magic weapons.

Originally, his Shark points would not have been enough but he sold his Octranezion to the clan for an astonishing figure of 25,000 Shark points.

Sebastian was shocked on seeing the figure. According to the machine that was placed inside the armory, the Octranezion was a high-tier magic weapon that had more value than all those that were originally in the armory.

With those Shark points, Sebastian was able to purchase a magic armor worth 12,000 Shark points for his companion at the moment, Tonado.

After all the help that Tonado rendered to him, he found it right to pay the old toad even if it was just a little. And besides, strengthening Tonado now would help him when the fight for the Sea King inheritance began. 

For the remaining Shark points that were with him, as Sebastian saw no other magic weapon or gadget that attracted him, he felt generous and simply distributed the rest to the members of his hunting team.

This alone was another massive propaganda step that played an important role in the increase of members in the hunting team.

After all these, the commotion of the past 2 days finally started dying down as the exhausted sharks left to get a much-needed rest.

Sebastian and some other sharks didn\'t go to rest though, this was because this evening was the time that was scheduled for the clan head\'s lecture.

…

After Sebastian transferred the 4000 Shark points that he specifically reserved for this, he was finally allowed inside the large hall in the cave where a group of Great White Sharks was already gathered.

Compared to the previous lecture that Sebastian attended, the sharks here were much fewer, only the elite sharks who were close to the boundary of the purple tier were qualified to attend this lecture.

Old Mak just finished his lectures on other consultation subjects, now he was finally about to start the lecture on the purple tier evolution.

2 minutes after Sebastian entered, Old Mak finally came in.

"…Evolution is ethereal, but it is something that we predators encounter from the first day of our lives in this world". 

"…Evolution does not just entail when you evolve from a normal Great White Shark to a white tier shark or the orange and purple tiers. Evolution entails more, every increase in strength is an evolution".

"…I already thought you about origin laws. From the first day of our existence into this world, we start exploring our world which instinctively translates to exploring the mysteries of the origin laws".

"…While exploring our world, we learn to swim, that\'s an evolution".

"…We learn to bite, that\'s an evolution".

"…During the exploration of our world, we learn a lot of things that change us and the type of predator who we eventually become, this is an evolution".

"…By learning how to swim and bite, it becomes a skill that we could evolve by knowing more of the origin laws about that specific domain".

"…All these are evolutions, but it is the purple tier evolution that is the most important and the most pivotal which explains the danger in going at it".

"…Breaking through to the purple tier is not just an evolution, it is like a crystallization of your being".

"…There are 3 factors that influence the purple tier evolution, your bloodline which we have an advantage in, your physical core, and your magic core which are your accumulations in both domains".

"…The combination of these 3 makes the evolution complete".

"…What I said about the purple tier evolution being a crystallization of your being is correct. Every successful subject emerges as a new being, your bloodline becomes purer and your skills change in different ways".

"…For the purer bloodline, I am a perfect example. Like the way, Strong unlocked the ancient Pugilist King bloodline, my purer bloodline after the evolution enabled me to unlock the ancient Thunder King bloodline".

While Old Mak said this, his electroreceptors secretly narrowed on the only Megalodon who was among this group of Great White Sharks. This fellow somehow already enjoyed the benefits of a pure bloodline that he was speaking of.

"…Apart from the purer bloodline, the changes in your skills are more magical. Basic skills like biting and swimming no longer require effort from you, it becomes more instinctual, more passive".

"…In the purple tier realm, biting, swimming, and all these other basic skills evolve to such a passive state that it feels no different from eating".

"…This is one of the reasons why purple tier predators are countless times more powerful than their orange tier counterparts, and also the same reason why we encourage you to go at it despite the dangers involved".

"…Always remember this, an additional purple tier Great White Shark in the clan means better protection of our legacy and the younger sharks who all depend on you the seniors for protection".

"This is the end of today\'s lecture".

With that, the class was dismissed.

…

Sebastian left Old Mak\'s lecture feeling enlightened. Pairing this with the knowledge that he already knew from Tonado, the mysterious purple tier realm became a lot more open, friendlier, and welcoming to him.

He left with a heart filled with smiles.

That same night, before he slept to rest his already aching body, he received another piece of news. Tundra, the Lizard Lord finally sent his reply.

"I accept your proposal!"
