Chapter 946: Chapter 42: Child of Fortune! 100 Uses_4
This Divine Martial Dynasty is just too twisted. All the tests have such a high difficulty, yet they claim that "any child with normal intelligence who has attended an official school should be able to solve them easily"? Were the children during the Divine Martial Dynasty period really under so much pressure?
Sure enough, two incense sticks later, Wang Anye got all three questions wrong, and his head drooped down in disappointment.
Originally, he thought he was a top student, but after a test, he turned into a bottom student. This was quite a blow to his confidence.
Such a defeated look on his great-grandson was the first time Wang Shouzhe had ever seen it, and he couldn’t help but smile slightly at the corner of his mouth.
It’s rare to see this kid take a hit, but this could be beneficial for his growth.
Sure enough, Miss Artifact Spirit started muttering and complaining, "You’re laughing, still laughing? As a father, how can you be so irresponsible? Ye’er is so talented and smart, but he did so poorly on this little test. You, as a parent, must take full responsibility."
"I’m his great-grandfather..." Wang Shouzhe felt his face flush from the scolding, not having been criticized like this for many years. He cautiously rebutted.
"Great-grandfather? You married early, didn’t you? You’re only ninety years old, right? You’re still a child yourself, how did you manage to have a great-grandson already? And at your age, how can you properly educate Ye’er?" Miss Artifact Spirit said angrily, "Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue with you. While you’re at training camp, I’ll personally teach Anye his lessons."
"Little Anye, I’m telling you, study hard. If you do well, you can have your pick of the damaged puppets, they don’t cost much anyway."
"Thank you, Miss Artifact Spirit sis."
Wang Shouzhe and his group were completely speechless.
Is there such a good thing? Originally, it was just a reward, but now, as long as Anye, this "bottom student," studies well, he can have whatever he wants?
These damaged puppets are considered trash to the camp, but they are treasures to the Wang Family. With some tinkering, they might be able to piece together some complete puppets.
Although the puppets are just cleared away, considering the consistent nature of the Divine Martial Dynasty, they probably won’t be weak.
The Purple Mansion Realm is certainly out of reach, but Celestial Human Realm strength should be possible? If worse comes to worse, they can be disassembled for research on their principles.
In this way, the Wang Family’s foundation will be enhanced a bit.
Wang Shouzhe glanced at Wang Anye with an unusual look.
Could this kid, relying on his fortune, empty the entire camp? Including packing up Miss Artifact Spirit and taking her home?
Fortunately, Wang Shouzhe had always been rational, knowing that gathering wool must be done slowly. If done too hastily, and Miss Artifact Spirit gets angry, it would be a big problem.
The situation now is quite clear. In this recruit camp, besides this naive and kind Miss Artifact Spirit, there hasn’t been any living person for a long time.
As long as they proceed slowly, this place will inevitably belong to the Wang Family.
Afterwards, they were led by Miss Artifact Spirit, those who needed to report did so, and those who needed to organize their dormitories did so, settling temporarily into the camp.
The next day.
Miss Artifact Spirit gathered everyone in a vast square reminiscent of a gladiatorial arena. Compared to the recruitment point’s small square, this place was dozens of times larger!
"Everyone, due to the absence of the instructor, the new instructor I applied for has not yet arrived. Therefore, according to the management regulations, I will serve as your temporary instructor," Miss Artifact Spirit said earnestly, "Recruit Wang Shouzhe, step forward. It is now your turn to undergo the first enlistment test. Are you prepared?"
"I’m ready."
With Wang Shouzhe’s caution, he had already anticipated this scenario and naturally had long been prepared.
Then, a light flashed in the gladiatorial arena, and a Demon Puppet with Spirit Platform Realm appeared, roaring and lunging at Wang Shouzhe.
"Uh..."
Wang Shouzhe twitched his mouth, without even moving.
A vine shot up from the ground, tightly binding the Demon Puppet. No matter how it struggled or roared, it was all in vain.
"Miss Artifact Spirit sis, I’m already at the Celestial Human Realm. Why does my enrolment test still involve Spirit Platform Realm Demon Puppets?" Wang Shouzhe asked.
He couldn’t help but mumble internally, still a Demon Puppet without any creativity? No idea who designed such a boring test mechanism.
"This is the checkpoint personally designed by His Majesty the Saint Emperor. Do you have an opinion?" Miss Artifact Spirit said with a sneer, "Normal recruits enlist without delaying for more than three years. You, on the other hand, have delayed for sixty-four years."
"Can’t you do something about it?" Wang Shouzhe tentatively suggested, feeling a twinge of excitement.
"Of course not, both entrance exams and graduation exams are designed by His Majesty the Saint Emperor, and no one can change them," Miss Artifact Spirit explained, "Recruit Wang Shouzhe, congratulations on passing the enlistment test, rewarded with three bottles of primary supportive potions, which can help you in Spirit Platform Realm training. If you need more, you’ll have to complete various tasks to earn more military merit."
A light flashed, and three potions appeared in Wang Shouzhe’s hands.
Although the name sounds low-grade, Wang Shouzhe knew this must be good stuff.
Without waiting for him to study them.
Miss Artifact Spirit continued, "Formal recruit Wang Shouzhe, congratulations on completing the Divine Martial Army No. 5 Recruit Training Camp’s curriculum. Please complete the graduation exam within a year; if you excel in the graduation exam, you can obtain a recommendation letter for the Intermediate and Advanced Officer Training Academy."
Another relic dungeon?
Wang Shouzhe was stunned, but then he realized something was wrong: "Wait, I just enlisted and graduated already? Aren’t you going to give me a few more trial tasks, some rewards at least?"
He was somewhat caught off guard by this, as it was strange to be done as soon as it started. Furthermore, once kicked out of the camp, there’s no way to gather wool.
"Graduation exam qualification has two conditions: one, being in the recruit training camp for thirty years, regardless of Realm, and must take the graduation exam. Two, reaching Celestial Human Realm strength, regardless of age, must take the graduation exam within a year." Miss Artifact Spirit answered meticulously.
"Are there rewards for the graduation exam?" Wang Shouzhe asked, feeling excited.
"The rewards of graduation exams depend on which stage you reach; the further the stage, the richer the rewards," Miss Artifact Spirit explained earnestly, "Moreover, if your graduation exam results can break the historical records of the Divine Martial Army No. 5 Recruit Training Camp and become number one, there’ll be additional rewards with very rare items."
"If your total score in the fifteen Divine Martial Army Recruit Training Camps reaches the top history record, additional rare rewards will be given."
Wang Shouzhe seriously pondered, "How many times can I take the test?"
"Once decided."
"If I get first, and later someone breaks my record, will my rewards be revoked?" Wang Shouzhe asked further.
"Of course not, every time a record is broken, a separate reward is given."
"Miss Artifact Spirit, you said earlier that anyone reaching Celestial Human Realm must participate in the graduation exam within a year, regardless of staying in the camp for thirty years? What if they miss the time?"
"Qualification for the exam will be canceled."
"Is there a time limit between breaking records?"
"No."
Subsequently, Wang Shouzhe asked a series of questions, which nearly caused Miss Artifact Spirit to crash.
After getting everything clarified, he solemnly said to Wang Zongchang: "Zongchang, find a way to notify Liyao and Zong’an, and ensure they arrive here within three months."
"Yes, Fourth Uncle," Wang Zongchang bowed.
"Tell Zong’an to bring the Longevity Tree, saying that I have a big plan to execute here," Wang Shouzhe said with utmost seriousness.
He silently added a thought, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to gather wool from the Divine Martial Dynasty. Missing it would be a heavenly blunder.
