Chapter 337: Sixth Level Promotion (Part 2) Thanks Everyone_1
Alyssa and her legendary followers communicated telepathically, then promptly decided to stand their ground.
There were always two vocal factions within the Lai Yin Empire, one led by Tula Yang advocating for aggressive warfare, and the other led by Anduin advocating for conservative cease-fire.
Now, the aggressive warfare faction of Lai Yin gained the upper hand. The three major empires were locked to battle in the western continent of Goldfinch, with over seventy small nations and city-states plunged into war.
Nevertheless, the voice of Anduin’s party should not be overlooked.
Alyssa had never communicated with Anduin’s party. She wished to hear them out before making a decision.
Anduin and his two associates did not close in too much.
They stopped less than 1 kilometer from Alyssa and her party, and bowed their respect from afar, “Your Majesty, Queen of the Goldfinch, it’s an honor to meet you here!”
Alyssa subtly nodded, “Anduin, Thor, Khadgar, I’m glad to meet you as well.”
She appraised Anduin up and down, asking, “Anduin, do you have any side effects from absorbing Xi Fan’s soul fragment?”
“None so far, Your Majesty,” Anduin politely replied, “I shadow-merged using Xi Fan’s soul fragment and have successfully advanced to the sixth rank, with the hope of becoming a legend within my lifetime, all thanks to the path pointed out by Lord Ke.”
“It’s precisely because of this that I hurried over to congratulate Lord Ke on his advancement as soon as I heard about it. I did not expect to meet you here.”
“So, it was a congratulatory visit for Ke,” Alyssa calmly and authoritatively remarked, “Then you should wait a bit. Ke just succeeded in his breakthrough. He will leave the Mage Tower once his state has stabilized.”
“As you command, Empress.” Anduin respectfully stood still, waiting for Su Yu to appear.
Rain of spiritual energy was still falling in Aphi city. It lasted five full minutes before gradually stopping.
In these five minutes, every player in the city earned around 30,000 experience points, nearly half of their total experience!
The city was filled with joy. As the players’ cheers resounded, the city sparkled with the bright white light of leveling up.
After the spiritual energy rain ended, Su Yu flew out from the shattered roof of the Mage Tower and landed beside the princess.
Due to his recent breakthrough, he could not perfectly control the terrifying power within his body. The formidable aura of a Sanctuary power spread unchecked throughout the city.
No one cared about this, though, as they all celebrated Su Yu’s breakthrough.
“Ke, have you successfully advanced?” Alyssa slowly approached Su Yu, her eyes filled with a gentle smile.
In Alyssa’s eyes, Su Yu’s speed of growth was nothing short of ‘staggering.’
In just three short years, he had gone from an ordinary mage apprentice to the sixth rank Sanctuary stage. This rapid progression could only be rivaled by a chosen one like Tina Garcia!
Alyssa looked at Su Yu with satisfaction. She certainly made the right choice in him.
Smiling back at Alyssa, Su Yu said, “Thanks to Your Majesty, my advancement was a complete success! Thanks to sending Master Sharon to safeguard my breakthrough. Otherwise, the Mage Tower that cost me millions of spiritual energy coins may have been destroyed.”
Alyssa waved her hand with a smile, “You’re too polite. Considering the tremendous merit you’ve earned for the Empire, it’s only right that I do this.”
“Now, I want to thank everyone else.” Su Yu suddenly turned to the players standing at the base of Mage Tower:
“Everyone owns the credit for my advancement. Without your tireless efforts to farm monster materials for me, I wouldn’t be celebrating this advancement today. So, thank you. I assure you, I will not let you down!”
At this, Su Yu bowed deeply to the players.
Many of the players present spent 12 hours a day hunting monsters in grinding areas, giving up dungeon exploration, questing, and fun elements of the game.
It was their dedication that generated a wealth of materials to back Su Yu, enabling him to break through Sanctuary in such a short time.
As the saying goes, “don’t forget the well-diggers when you drink the water.” He was genuinely grateful to these players.
Seeing Su Yu’s sincerity, the players were deeply moved.
Many of them had red-rimmed eyes:
“We’re good, boss Ke, even though farming materials is a bit boring. Considering your significant contribution to us humans, we never felt bored.”
“Boss Ke, you’re now a sixth-rank powerhouse. We are eagerly looking forward to your future performance. We believe you will not disappoint us!”
“Keep it up, boss Ke! Let the high-level civilizations see our powerful determination as Blue Star Humans. Even when faced with a challenging adversary, we can overcome them with our courage!”
The players shouted their cheers up to Su Yu in the sky.
Su Yu could faintly feel a force, a sense of camaraderie, the bravery against hardships, and the collective determination to overcome difficulties.
Having decided that, no matter what obstacles he would face in this life, he resolved to chase the Skuru people away!
After defeating the Skuru people, the Singer Civilization that had opened the space portal for the Skuru must pay the price!
Hearing the passionate response from players, Roland and his party finally understood why Su Yu advanced so quickly.
Because hundreds of millions of adventurers were collecting monster material for him!
This reminded them of the “Church of Light,” an organization from thousands of years ago.
Back then, the Church of Light was ubiquitous throughout the Realm, with countless followers. The Church’s high ranks depended on a power called “Faith Power,” supplied by their followers. This power enabled huge leaps in their personal strengths, similar to Su Yu’s situation now.
Unfortunately, a thousand years ago, the Church of Light’s headquarter was overrun by mages; the codex of faith power was all burnt to ashes. Without the codex to guide them, the practice was permanently lost. It was a true regret.
For Su Yu, bestowed with the support of so many adventurers and Empress Alyssa’s favor, his advancement to the seventh rank was just a matter of time.
Thus Roland and his party treated Su Yu as their equal.
Roland stepped next to Su Yu from his Space Ring, handed a blue rune to Su Yu and smiled:
“Lord Ke, given your rapid progress, you must have missed many fourth and fifth-rank spells, correct? This is the access rune for our Silver Pine Spire Library. There you can learn all regular spells of the fourth and fifth ranks for a mage!”
“Thank you!” Su Yu accepted the rune with a smile.
[Silver Pine Spire Library Access Rune (Special Item)]
Highest rank
