Chapter 949: Chapter 43: Harvest! The Wang Family Twin Beauties Both Ascend to Great Celestial Pride
A flash of white light passed, and the reward landed in Wang Shouzhe’s hands.
This time, the reward was much better. Based on the effects and some hints from the Artifact Spirit, it was clear that this treasure’s enhancement on bloodlines was far superior to the Infinite Treasure Pill, albeit still lesser than the Blood Gu King.
The only issue was that it required reaching the Second Layer of bloodline awakening before use and was best used during the Spirit Platform Realm. Otherwise, it could easily harm bodily functions, leading to uncontrollable consequences.
Nonetheless, Wang Shouzhe, who could manage even the Blood Gu King, wasn’t afraid of a Middle-Level Bloodline Talent Improvement Liquid.
However, as he had already reached the Fifth Layer in bloodline awakening, the effect of this "Middle-Level Bloodline Talent Improvement Liquid" was minimal for him, and using it would be wasteful.
It was more suitable for nurturing children, like An Ye, An Rui, or other potential young ones. For Wang Shouzhe, the more of such things, the better, as there were many children in his family.
The second round was not mentioned for now.
Soon, the third round began, and as expected, three Spirit Platform Peak Demon Puppets were no match for Wang Shouzhe, who dealt with them effortlessly.
"Congratulations, Wang Shouzhe, you have passed the third level of the graduation test and earned the title of ’Elite Graduate.’ You are awarded one Standard Magical Treasure. Additionally, you will receive various privileges upon enlisting and could potentially become a Captain-level Officer in the future."
The process was almost identical to the Recruitment Point.
However, Wang Shouzhe gradually became accustomed to it.
Moreover, he had thoroughly investigated from start to finish that the so-called Standard Magical Treasure was a relatively rare Upper Grade Magical Treasure in the Daqian Kingdom, with a starting auction price typically at 1.5 million Qian Gold, and actual transaction prices seldom below 3 million—truly valuable items.
The entire Wang Family currently had only three such treasures.
Yet, Wang Shouzhe believed that after this wave, the family’s future Upper Grade Magical Treasures would experience explosive growth. Among all treasures, shield-types were considered quite expensive, so Wang Shouzhe chose a Treasure Shield at the artifact level.
According to Wang Shouzhe’s habit, he usually named a treasure upon obtaining it. However, due to the special circumstances now, naming could wait. It was more urgent to tackle the fourth round.
The fourth round.
Starting from this round, the opponents were Celestial Human Realm Demon Puppets.
Compared to the previous Spirit Platform Realm Demon Puppets, they were bulkier, with a more domineering presence. Most notably, they had a pair of demon-like membrane wings on their backs, exuding a formidable aura.
However, dealing with such ordinary Celestial Human Level Demon Puppets posed no challenge to Wang Shouzhe. After all, their strength was roughly equivalent to an ordinary Celestial Human Realm with a Third Layer bloodline, whereas Wang Shouzhe had awakened a Fifth-Order Bloodline at the Great Celestial Pride Level.
The battle, as expected, was without suspense.
That Celestial Human Realm Demon Puppet merely damaged part of the Witch’s Long Hair Vine and some Rapidly Growing Enhanced Fire Dragon Fruit. Wang Shouzhe replanted what needed replanting, took necessary rest, and listened to the Artifact Spirit introduce the list of spoils.
"Congratulations, Wang Shouzhe, for passing the fourth level of the graduation test with exceptional grades. You can obtain a recommendation letter from the [Middle to High-Level Officer Training Academy], which can be used to participate in the academy’s examination. If you pass and are admitted, you can become a glorious Quasi-Captain." The Artifact Spirit’s voice sounded more solemn, showing a slightly altered attitude towards Wang Shouzhe, "You can also select a favored special treasure from the exceptional rewards list."
Listening to the Artifact Spirit’s description, the special treasures were items with unique functions, similar to Wang Liyao’s Mountain and River Seal, which could be refined within the Divine Soul for attack and defense, as well as concealing breath and invisibility type items like jade pendants. What surprised Wang Shouzhe most was the inclusion of a low-tier Earth Bracelet.
Although this Earth Bracelet was of the lowest tier with limited space, it was more than enough to store an immobile Lifebound Spirit Plant.
Additionally, there was a refined battle puppet (combat power equivalent to Celestial Pride Level) at the early stage of Celestial Human Realm, and a Top-Grade Storage Ring (Endless Abyss level).
While this round’s items were decent, none could enhance Wang Shouzhe’s combat capabilities. Though those Divine Soul treasures were powerful, they required a long time to refine.
Battle puppets were also available for purchase outside, although not "refined quality," they would suffice. Furthermore, the Artifact Spirit had previously mentioned that during the graduation test, unless one was a dedicated Puppet Master, using puppets was prohibited.
In contrast, the Earth Bracelet and Top-Grade Storage Ring were harder to obtain, especially the former, which was extremely rare.
After some consideration, Wang Shouzhe followed his heart and chose the Earth Bracelet.
As a Black Tortoise Cultivator with an interest in plants, he had long envied Lvwei’s Earth Bracelet but never managed to acquire one.
With this Earth Bracelet, he could cultivate various plants anytime and anywhere, accelerating the cycle of seed renewal. Most importantly, combat plants like the Iron Python Vine, which require time to nurture and are inconvenient to move, could finally be carried with him.
Wang Shouzhe, therefore, opted for the Earth Bracelet.
After making some adjustments, Wang Shouzhe proceeded to the fifth round.
The fifth round finally brought some change, featuring a new type of Celestial Human Realm Demon Puppet—the Qianluo Bone Demon.
