Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal

He sent a clone to, firstly, capture those bastards, and secondly, for Ju Youjing.

That Ju Youjing was once the number one powerhouse in the First Major Region and also possessed A-level Spatial Talent.

This talent was something Wang Teng was determined to obtain.

As long as he killed Ju Youjing and let the Fire Element Avatar extract the corpse, he could acquire the Spatial Talent.

Thus, Wang Teng assigned Liu Erlong to command five thousand people, stationed in the Wu Race territory, with the Water Element Avatar guarding it.

He assigned the Titan to lead five thousand people back to the Celestial Court Headquarters, with the Fire Element Avatar accompanying for guard duty.

The remaining five thousand or so were to defend various large and small strongholds.

After arranging these trivial matters, Wang Teng called for Qian Lingxue to join him and left through the Teleportation Array.

They were heading to the Ancient Divine Hall to participate in the Martial God Trial.

......

A minute later, on the Guanghan Palace square, the Teleportation Array lit up with light.

The next second, Wang Teng and Qian Lingxue appeared.

Currently, Guanghan Palace was quiet, with the stationed army yet to return. Only the Space Matrix was silently operating.

Speaking of which, only territories with a generated Land Title Scroll were qualified to build a Space Matrix.

Wang Teng had already established Space Matrices at the Eight Clans Headquarters and Wu Race Headquarters, accumulating a reward of 1000 Attribute Points.

The only exception was the Thunder Race tribe, where he had yet to create a Space Matrix due to time constraints and not having the leisure to do so.

In total, territories in the Celestial Court that could build a Matrix were: the Celestial Court Headquarters, Guanghan Palace, Hun Race, Eight Clans Headquarters, Wu Race, and Thunder Race.

These territories had very rich strategic resources nearby and were of great geographical importance.

As for other strongholds, they were merely extensions of the faction, their importance ranked lower.

"Master, are we going to the Ancient Divine Hall now?"

Qian Lingxue asked excitedly.

At this moment, she was feeling both eager and a bit nervous.

Wang Teng sized her up.

Qian Lingxue’s harvest this time was also quite significant!

The bounty rewards from Jiu Ri Hall and the rewards for annihilating the Wu Race had brought her a large amount of Experience Points and Attribute Values.

As a result, Qian Lingxue’s combat power had reached 82,000 points, and her level had risen to Level 18.

"Xue’Er, seeing as your combat power has reached 82,000 points, if you take another step forward, you might challenge the Divine-grade Foundation Establishment. How about waiting until your combat power breaks through to 90,000 points before trying Foundation Establishment?"

Wang Teng said with concern.

Qian Lingxue gave a wry smile: "Master, you know that 90,000 points of combat power is just our assumption for passing the Lower Divine-grade Foundation Establishment. After all, such tests not only require combat power but also talent."

"My talent is nowhere near yours, and if you can pass the Lower Divine-grade Foundation Establishment with 90,000 combat power, I would at least need 120,000 combat power. And right now my combat power is just over 80,000, which is far from 120,000..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng nodded slightly.

Qian Lingxue wasn’t wrong.

He had many powerful talents and could easily crush opponents of the same level with equivalent combat power.

Clearly, measuring the Martial God Trial solely by combat power wasn’t very accurate.

Using comprehensive strength for assessment would be more precise.

At the moment, Wang Teng said: "You are only Level 18 now, and the assessment deadline is Level 40, so you have opportunities to improve before reaching Level 40."

Qian Lingxue shook her head: "Master, there’s no waiting, the Foundation Establishment Stele records that the difficulty of the Foundation Establishment Trial increases with level. Just take you for example, if you achieve 90,000 combat power before Level 20, you have a chance to pass the Lower Divine-grade Foundation Establishment Trial."

"But if you exceed Level 20, the difficulty will increase by twenty percent, if above Level 25, the difficulty increases another twenty percent, and so on. Every 5 levels, the difficulty increases by twenty percent."

"I’m Level 18 now, and if I attempt the trial now, I’ll be facing the lowest level of difficulty. If I wait until after Level 20, the difficulty increases by twenty percent."

"Moreover, with your current rapid improvement, I can’t hold you back any longer!"

Qian Lingxue’s eyes showed resolve.

Wang Teng nodded slightly, then sighed: "It seems that after handling trivialities, we must let Liu Erlong and others take the trial early. Missing Level 20 and then taking the trial would increase the difficulty, and that might not be a good thing!"

Qian Lingxue smiled sweetly: "Indeed! Unless someone is extremely lucky to surpass Level 20 and gain a tremendous opportunity. Or if that person is as outstanding as you, improving faster with higher levels!"

"By the way, Master, you’re Level 28 now, according to the above calculations, the trial difficulty you face has increased by forty percent!"

"Then, based on 90,000 combat power as a baseline, you need about 130,000 combat power to pass the Lower Divine-grade Foundation Establishment, and even higher for the Middle Divine-grade and Upper Divine-grade Foundation Establishments!"

Wang Teng nodded and said: "Indeed, the Lower Divine-grade Foundation Establishment can increase combat power by 100,000, the Middle Divine-grade by 200,000, and the Upper Divine-grade can add 400,000 combat power."

"As the Foundation Establishment Power keeps doubling, the difficulty of the trial naturally doubles as well, if not more."

Qian Lingxue was startled: "Master, calculating this way, to pass the Upper Divine-grade Trial, you need at least 520,000 combat power!"

Wang Teng sighed: "Yes, indeed! Maybe even more, right now I am still quite far from 520,000 combat power. But, I still have other means to utilize."

"Oh~!"

This discussion left Qian Lingxue a bit uneasy.

She was eagerly hoping the Master could pass the Upper Divine-grade Trial.

It was true!

Content orıginally comes from noⅴelfire.net

Not everyone could achieve a Divine-grade Foundation Establishment.

For instance, she wasn’t capable of it.

As for the Upper Divine-grade Foundation Establishment, it was even harder to imagine.

Even in the Divine Realm, there may only be a few Divine Sons and Holy Daughters who could accomplish it!

Even the Master might face the risk of failure.

"Xue’Er, are you sure you want to take the trial now?" Wang Teng asked again.

"Mm~!"

Qian Lingxue nodded firmly.

She could not delay any longer. She had to quickly establish her Foundation so she could better assist the Master.

Moreover, unlike the Master, she wasn’t confident that advancing to Level 20 would make her stronger.

"Xue’Er, then it’s decided. Let’s go to take the trial!"

With that, Wang Teng waved and took Qian Lingxue into the Palm Buddha Country.

Then, he released a clone.

After doing all this, he also returned to the Palm Buddha Country.

At that moment, a soybean-sized Space Node was left in place.

The clone opened its mouth and absorbed the Space Node into its belly.

Then, it flew towards Heaven-Reaching Lake.

......

Meanwhile, in the distant Yuan Race Headquarters.

The Primordial Venerable glanced at the bed, where a graceful silhouette lay amongst the slightly messy silk bedding.

He smiled smugly, adjusted his clothes, and walked out of the bedroom with light steps.

He hadn’t felt this relaxed in a long time!

Now he was in great physical and mental condition, feeling extremely pleased.

There were less than ten hours left before the Reputation Challenge ended.

Once the challenge concluded, he could locate the positions of those Challenger Factions.

Then, he could start amassing Points on a large scale.

The thought of huge amounts of Points made his heart surge, reminiscent of last night’s frenzy, intense and excited.

As for whether any challenger’s Reputation Value had surpassed 1500 points?

In his view, that was impossible!

A mere bunch of Small Thousand World humans could not cause any great waves.

The success of Daqian Divine Dynasty gave him a glimpse of hope.

He did not know that Wang Teng’s Reputation Value was nearing 5500 points, let alone 1500 points...
