After seeing Wu Siduo's rewards appear, the old Emperor sat on his dragon throne inside the Sun Moon Empire's imperial palace, gazing at these rewards with a heavy expression; his aged eyes flickered, as if he were deep in thought.
Meanwhile, Xu Tianran, who was sitting not far away, also watched the light screen. After a moment of silence, he turned his head to look at Kong Deming beside him and asked.
"Elder Kong, does a Level 12 Spirit Tool really exist in this world?"
Upon hearing this, the expression on Kong Deming's face was quite bewildered. After all, even though he was the most powerful Soul Engineer in the Sun Moon Empire, he was merely known as the person closest to being a Level 10 Soul Engineer; a Level 10 Spirit Tool was still beyond his reach.
However, Kong Deming felt that within ten years, he would be able to craft a Level 10 Spirit Tool, which was the best news for him.
{Original Author Note: At this time, Kong Deming had not yet crafted a Level 10 Spirit Tool; he would likely do so around the time of the second Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament.}
Yet, what about that Shrek Academy? They brought out a Level 12 Spirit Tool without even blinking.Even the person in last place could receive a Level 9 Spirit Tool.
A Level 9 Spirit Tool was not something even the Sun Moon Empire could just casually bring out; wherever it was placed, it could serve as a national treasure.It was also the Sharp Weapon the Sun Moon Empire had used in the past to deter other forces.
"I am not sure, but if it truly exists, I really would like to witness its power."
For a Soul Engineer, especially one striving upward, Kong Deming naturally wanted to see a vast sky.
Of course, witnessing such power was likely impossible unless the opposing party fired the Level 12 Spirit Tool directly at the Sun Moon Empire upon receiving it, in which case he would know exactly how great its power was.
The old Emperor also remained silent for a long time, unable to help but think of the young man he had once tried to befriend.
The conditions he had offered seemed to have truly held no attraction for the other party.
"What exactly is the origin of that Shrek Academy?"
After he said this, no one answered him, as everyone was in a state of confusion.On the other side, Jing Hongchen felt somewhat fortunate, as he had made the decisive choice back then to send Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and Ji Juechen to study at that Shrek Academy.
Furthermore, the three of them had successfully passed the assessment and became new students at Shrek Academy. In the past four months, they had gained much, especially Xiao Hongchen, who not only achieved a Breakthrough to become a Five-Ring Soul King, but his Mental Force had also grown significantly, and he had even seen more impressive Spirit Tools.
Four months of time had yielded even more gains than staying at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy for four years. Upon learning this information, Jing Hongchen's feelings were somewhat complex, but he sincerely hoped that Xiao Hongchen and the others could become stronger.T
he future of the Sun Moon Empire would ultimately depend on them, and the matter of the Holy Spirit Cult was also quite troublesome; he hoped the day the Sun Moon Empire walked out of the mire would not be too late.
Soon, the name of the fourth place winner, Ye Xinglan, appeared on the light screen.
Everyone watched this scene with great anticipation; if the fifth place reward was already so generous, what would the top places have?
[Ye Xinglan: Obtained rewards: Golden Pearl x 120, Fruit of Life x 200, Level 12 defensive Spirit Tool x 1, Level 12 offensive Spirit Tool x 1, Red-rank mecha x 1, Spirit evolved into Myriad Luminary Star-Suppressing Sword, Immortal Qi x 100 wisps, Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone age increased by 100,000 years in total]
Upon seeing her rewards, Ye Xinglan's face showed some fluctuation, but she still seemed quite unwilling to accept it; she expressed her thanks and then claimed her rewards.
The people of the Douluo Continent might not know what Immortal Qi was, but the gods in the Divine Realm were in an uproar at this moment.
Tang San's blue eyes were filled with shock; he could not imagine that a Five Extremes Grand Competition could actually give away something like Immortal Qi as a reward.
One had to know that Immortal Qi was exclusive to the Divine Realm and was almost never seen in the mortal world. Even for the gods, Immortal Qi was an extremely important resource; if a Divinity wished to be immortal and indestructible, it was all due to Immortal Qi.
The gods were filled with dread at this moment; they had even given away Immortal Qi—what exactly did this academy want to do?
Could it be that they wanted to turn this academy into a new Divine Realm?
"This matter is certainly not a good thing. Where did this academy obtain the Immortal Qi and that Golden Brilliance Parasol Tree? Could it be that someone in our Divine Realm intends to start their own business elsewhere?"
Rong Nianbing said this very casually. As for him, he did not really care, as he was already prepared to run away at any time.
However, he was quite curious in his heart about how all of this was achieved.
After hearing Rong Nianbing's words, Tang San and the God of Destruction exchanged a glance, and the God of Destruction let out a cold snort.
"Does this matter truly have nothing to do with you? Tang San!"
"Destruction, there is no need to drag me into this every single time you speak. Although this child possesses my Bloodline, I know nothing about the affairs of this academy. Furthermore, I would not do such an absurd thing. If two Divine Realms appeared within one space, it would undoubtedly be a huge burden on the lower planes. As a Divine Realm Law Enforcer, I, Tang San, would not harm the interests of the Divine Realm."
Tang San spoke with righteous indignation. He was very unwilling to see the establishment of another Divine Realm; he only hoped that the other party would come to their Divine Realm, so that everything could be under his control, as this was his main battlefield after all.
However, if they chose to create their own Divine Realm, then the trouble would be immense.
Of course, wanting to create one's own Divine Realm was not an easy matter. Creating a Divine Realm required at least one powerhouse at the God King level, and then it also required immense energy—energy that might even need to drain multiple planets to satisfy—and besides that, there were many, many difficult conditions.
At the very least, even Tang San did not dare to guarantee that he could manage to establish a new Divine Realm.
