Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Academy's office in the Longwu Fortress.
Kang Shin-mu's group of five returned with Yu Yaji, with Linghu Die 'er guarding them. Along the way, many Dragon Emperor's experts wanted to investigate the situation, but they were all chased away by Linghu Die' er.
After all, the situation was not clear. Even if they asked Kang Shin-mu, it would be useless. If the four Dragon Martial Academies really had any important news, they would definitely announce it and not keep it to themselves.
Now that the nine races were here, the situation was more complicated. Although the four Dragon Martial Academies had different stances, they definitely wanted to prevent the Longwu Continent from being taken away.
In that case, everyone had the same goal, and some things were easier to negotiate.
After returning to the office, Kang Shin-mu took out the three Black Leopard Demonic Slaves and explained the situation of the battle to Yu Yaji.
"Five Black Leopard Demonic Slaves appeared and were killed by you."
Yu Yaji nodded and smiled. "Although they were only Demonic Slaves, it was also a slap in the face to the Demon God Clan. This time, other than the corresponding protection points, you will also receive many rewards."
"Where did these rewards come from?"
Kang Shin-mu asked curiously.
Yu Yaji glanced at him. "There are some things that are not convenient for you to know now. Knowing will put you in danger. After all, you are not strong enough to get involved in this mess …"
"The fate of the Longwu Continent is closely related to all of us. But the real decision is made by the supreme experts."
"Emperor Xi does not have time to come for now. Things are more urgent on her side.
So, she gave us some instructions for us to do. We just have to trust her. "
After hearing this, Kang Shin-mu knew that everything was being handled by the supreme divine dragon.
Now that the Dragon Martial Continent was besieged by the nine major races, even the Supreme Divine Dragon could not find the time to take care of the continent. He could only make arrangements on the continent. From the looks of it, Emperor Xi had made contact with someone, or perhaps some races, and then instructed them on some matters.
Kang Shin-mu was not qualified to know these things.
But it was enough for him to know a little. At least, Yu Yaji's words made him understand that the supreme divine dragon had not completely given up on the Longwu Continent.
"I only killed three Demonic Slaves. What reward will the higher-ups give me?"
Kang Shin-mu was not very interested in the reward.
After all, he did not think it would be much.
But the Demon God Ancestor still told him, "This reward probably came from your Emperor Xi's discussion with a certain race.
I just don't know which race Emperor Xi chose to work with.
"You will be rewarded for killing members of the Demon God Clan, Talisman Water Clan, and Void Human Clan … At the same time, there are two clans that have enmity with these three clans. One is the Ancient Phoenix Clan, and the other is the Devil King Clan.
But I don't know which one … Let see what reward they will give you. Maybe you can find out. "
Jiang Shenwu nodded.
Yuya Ji then took out a jade bracelet carved with phoenix runes from her bosom. She took out a grey bag from the bracelet and said, "This is the extra reward, the Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone. You've killed five royal demon slaves, so you'll be rewarded with five stones. As for how you'll split it among yourselves, you can decide."
After saying that, he threw the grey bag to Kang Shin-mu.
Kang Shin-mu took the gray bag. He had only opened a small opening when he felt an incomparably dense fire-attributed energy rushing towards him. He hurriedly closed it to prevent too much of the energy from leaking out.
"What's the use of the Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone?"
Kang Shin-mu asked.
Behind him, Xiao Yuhua, Ran Ran, Xiao Bai, and Liang Xiao were also curious.
"The Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone is a natural cultivation resource."
Yuya Ji said with a smile, "It doesn't exist in our Dragon Martial Continent. It's a special reward given by the higher-ups.
Every Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone, upon activation, will be able to absorb a vast amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy and gather it within your body to aid your cultivation. "
"To put it simply, the Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone can help you improve your cultivation base rapidly … Even a genius like Yu Tiangshang can save at least a year of hard cultivation by using one Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone.
Hearing that, Kang Shin-mu and the other four's expressions suddenly changed.
It should be noted that a genius like Yu Tiangshang could improve very quickly.
But a Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone could actually save Yu Tianchang a year of cultivation?
That was too exaggerated!
"I don't think I'm as talented as Yu Tiangshang."
Liang Xiao's mood immediately heated up, and he couldn't help saying, "So, this Phoenix Spirit Fire Stone can save me two or three years of hard cultivation?"
"More or less."
Yuya Ji glanced at Liang Xiao and said after a moment of estimation.
These words dampened Liang Xiao's enthusiasm. "It can't be, it's true?
It seems that the gap between me and Yu Tiangshang is really that big?
Sob, sob, sob, I don't want to live anymore … "
"Sob, my foot."
Kang Shin-mu knocked him on the head. "Yu Tiangshang is a top genius, but she has now surpassed the fifth level of the Dragon Emperor, so she can't set foot on the battlefield of the nine races for a year … If you work hard this year, you might be able to catch up with her."
"You're the only one who dares to think about catching up with her."
Liang Xiao looked frustrated. He had never thought about catching up with someone at Yu Tiangshang's level.
Who didn't know that Yu Tiangshang, like Feng Lige, was a top student of the four Dragon Martial Arts Academies?
Now, they had both become Dragon Emperor mentors, and their strength was several times stronger than that of ordinary Dragon Emperor mentors. They were top genius Dragon Martial Artists.
Their geniuses were, first, their fast cultivation speed, and second, their stronger combat strength at the same level.
Fast cultivation speed was a sign of high talent, but stronger combat strength at the same level was related to many aspects, such as Dragon Weapons, Dragon Martial Skills, the control and use of power, and the attribute of one's own talent. All of these could affect the strength of one's combat strength.
Therefore, some things were inborn, and Liang Xiao felt that he couldn't catch up with them.
Many Dragon Martial Artists, who had just awakened, became Sky Dragons or even Holy Dragons, while most Dragon Martial Artists were just ordinary dragons or True Dragons. That was the gap.
It was basically impossible to catch up with those top geniuses by relying on hard work, unless they had a heaven-defying opportunity.
In any case, this time, Kang Shin-mu and the others had gained a lot.
Five Phoenix Spirit Fire Stones were priceless. Of course, they were only useful for the younger generation. For those who had reached the Reincarnation Tribulation Realm and above, they were not of much use.
"I'll exchange these five Monster Cores for the protection points. I'll exchange them for some resources containing the energy of the dragon mark."
