Chapter 950: Chapter 43: Harvest! Wang Family’s Twin Beauties Rise to Great Heavenly Proud (Requesting Monthly Votes)_4 Chapter 950: Chapter 43: Harvest! Wang Family’s Twin Beauties Rise to Great Heavenly Proud (Requesting Monthly Votes)_4 Wang Shouzhe had understood a bit about it; these demons, covered with an exoskeleton, were unlike the common demons encountered before. They belonged to a relatively rare middle-tier category, possessing greater strength and stronger defenses, typically serving as leaders among the demons.

Their combat power was roughly equivalent to the Heavenly Proud level of the Tianren Realm, much more challenging to handle than the previous Tianren Realm demon.

However, as Wang Shouzhe was of the Great Heavenly Proud stature, dealing with a Qiānluógǔmó of this level was simply overpowering. He effortlessly shattered it within moments.

“Congratulations, Lord Wang Shouzhe, on passing the fifth hurdle of the graduation exam,” the Artifact Spirit added a touch of reverence in its voice, even its phrases became more respectful, “You have earned a guaranteed spot at the Intermediate and Advanced Officers Training Academy, where upon enrollment you will be entitled ‘Outstanding Quasi-Colonel.’ Perform well, and you may have the opportunity to become a Deputy General Officer. Additionally, you have earned the right to choose a Superior Magical Treasure, but you will need to exchange it with a Standardized Magical Weapon.”

Upon hearing about this reward, Wang Shouzhe was slightly stunned, not expecting that he would need to exchange his existing magical treasure. However, after some thought, he figured it was still a good deal.

Soon, he exchanged the “Standardized Magical Weapon” shield, acquired from the third hurdle, for a “Superior Magical Weapon.”

The reason was simple: what the Divine Martial Dynasty called a “Superior Magical Weapon” was known as a “Top-quality Magical Weapon” in Da Qian! Such items were exceedingly rare in Da Qian, and even in the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty, they were extremely scarce, always out of stock despite high demand. Typically, only in very large auctions could one possibly spot a Top-quality Magical Weapon.

So far, Wang Shouzhe had never come across a Top-quality Magical Weapon in any auction.

However, he had heard about one such magical weapon that had been auctioned for over ten million Qian Gold—a sky-high price.

With a Top-quality Magical Weapon, a Tianren Realm Cultivator’s strength would take a qualitative leap, especially for those Heavenly Proud or Great Heavenly Proud level cultivators in the late stages of the Tianren Realm. Possessing a Top-quality Magical Weapon could even allow them to compete well against ordinary Purple Abode Realm Cultivators for a short period.

Naturally, its power was incomparable to that of a Divine Spiritual Treasure, as both their prices and levels were vastly different.

However, a cultivator in the Tianren Realm couldn’t fully utilize a Divine Spiritual Treasure’s power, so practically speaking, compared to a Top-quality Magical Weapon, it was only marginally stronger. Of course, a Divine Spiritual Treasure could be used up to the Divine Power Territory, an advantage that no Top-quality Magical Weapon could match.

He acquired the Precious Shield.

Within the bounds of the rules, Wang Shouzhe made some adjustments, initially refining the Precious Shield to a usable state, followed by a full rest to recover his vitality and spirit.

Thus, he proceeded to the sixth stage.

Reaching the sixth stage, Wang Shouzhe no longer approached it as casually as before, but became serious.

For this time, what appeared was an early-stage Tianren Realm “Sky-rending Spike Demon.”

Wang Shouzhe had learned from the demon compendium in advance and knew that the Sky-rending Spike Demon ranked very high among demons, roughly equivalent to a Great Heavenly Proud amongst humans, with formidable combat strength.

Upon closer inspection, the demon’s exoskeleton gleamed with a metallic sheen, its back adorned with six very stout spikes, its shape ferocious, and its back arched upward, clearly indicating that the power of its waist and lower limbs was incredibly formidable.

In terms of strength and defensive power, it was further enhanced compared to the Qiānluógǔmó, and also possessed a skill similar to a Small Divine Power called “Sky-rending,” able to concentrate all its energy onto its bone spikes and launch them, creating tremendous destructive power, thus making it tough to handle.

But as both were of the Great Heavenly Proud level, and Wang Shouzhe was already at Level Five of the Tianren realm, he still had the upper hand against the Sky-rending Spike Demon. Even out of caution, he only took the time of burning one incense stick to overwhelmingly defeat it.

Of course, this was also because Wang Shouzhe had an advantage in age and cultivation base; otherwise, if both were at the early stages of the Great Heavenly Proud, the battle would not have been so easily won.

“Congratulations, Lord Wang Shouzhe, for passing the sixth hurdle of the graduation exam,” the Artifact Spirit’s voice conveyed deep awe, and its attitude towards Wang Shouzhe had completely changed, “We did not expect you to achieve such great results. The Intermediate and Advanced Officers Training Academy is very eager to have you join and will grant you the qualifications and related benefits of a Brigadier General. Furthermore, the reward you may choose is…”

Following that, the Artifact Spirit listed the rewards.

Although Wang Shouzhe was somewhat aware, he was still greatly surprised.

It couldn’t be helped; the rewards were simply too generous. The first part of the list essentially included eggs of various Spirit Beasts with pure bloodlines and potential reaching Level Nine, like various dragon eggs and phoenix eggs… However, regardless of their potential Level Nine, he would still need to raise them himself, and even nurturing them to Level Seven would require tremendous financial and time resources, not to mention reaching Level Nine.

Besides, the list also included several Spirit Plants and Spirit Seeds, including the seeds of the Longevity Tree, prominently featured on the list.

Of course, the other Spirit Plants were also excellent, all of the same potential level.

While Wang Shouzhe was tempted, what he cared most about was the “Advanced Bloodline Potential Improvement Liquid” listed among the prizes.
