What a Bounty!

At this moment, Wang Shuo finally experienced how powerful the first stage of the Primordial Chaos Skill at perfection was.

Common Basic Staff Technique and Common Basic Movement Technique were only lower yellow-tier skills. But with his Physique of 4.5, he turned these lowly techniques into something magical.

At this time, Wang Shuo seemed to have transformed into a being with three heads and six arms. Despite the encirclement, he was exceptionally calm.

The Green Dragon Staff swept out like a violent gale as he performed the 18 basic staff techniques one after another like an unceasing flood. And with flawless execution, he parried the attacks aiming at his vital points.

But what surprised Wang Shuo was that these sand soldiers had extraordinarily hard bodies.

The layer of sand armor covering them seemed to be a living creature as it transformed into a shield to block his attacks.

Furthermore, these sand soldiers had impeccable coordination as they worked together to share the burden of Wang Shuo's attacks, avoiding any casualties.

Unfortunately, the disparity in strength between the two sides was too significant.

Each sand armor could only withstand two attacks at best before disintegrating into yellow sand.

With a sweep of his staff, the sand armor on two sand soldiers shattered. Then with a flicker of his body, he killed them.

Suddenly, he heard a powerful air-piercing sound coming from behind him.

"I've been waiting for you!"

Wang Shuo spun, and the Green Dragon Staff smashed upward like raising flames. Then the head of the Green Dragon Staff opened its mouth and clamped down on a sharp metallic blade.

"What great strength!"

Based on this slash, Wang Shuo estimated that Sha Yi's Physique was at least 3.8.

Coupled with the sand armor protecting his body, he wouldn't be inferior to Wang Shou before he broke through. No wonder he dared to be so arrogant.

Even though Wang Shuo was surprised, he showed no mercy.

The Green Dragon Staff whipped about like a raging dragon overturning a river and smacked away Sha Yi's blade with one strike with any resistance.

The enormous force caused Sha Yi to stumble. Taking advantage of this opening, Wang Shuo charged forward, and the shadow of his staff slammed straight at the opponent's large head.

Unexpectedly, a sand soldier suddenly leaped out from the flank and blocked in front of Sha Yi.

"You're courting death!" Wang Shuo's gaze turned cold. His arms swung, and the long staff changed from smashing to piercing.

The ferocious dragon head pierced through the sand soldier's chest like a spear and continued toward Sha Yi without any loss of force.

Clang!

At the critical moment, Sha Yi barely managed to block the attack with the hilt of his saber. But the residual force still sent his body back several steps.

Before he could stabilize himself, the staff struck down from the sky like lightning.

A crisp 'kacha' reverberated through the air as Wang Shuo paused and extended his right arm.

The Green Dragon Staff stabbed straight through Sha Yi's throat and out the back of his head.

Gulp!

Sha Yi's throat gurgled as blood poured out the wound. But before the blood splashed onto the ground, Sha Yi dissipated into particles of light.

[You killed the Sand Race General.]

[You receive White Treasure Chest x1.]

With Sha Yi's death, the surrounding sand soldiers seemed to lose their minds and rushed at Wang Shou maniacally.

Unfortunately, even with their tacit cooperation and intact armor earlier, they were unable to withstand Wang Shuo, much less now.

Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, Wang Shuo weaved through the soldiers like a violent gale, sweeping up the yellow sand like waves. Wherever he passed, sand soldiers were thrown away like rocks.

In less than a minute, the wind calmed down, and a figure strode out from the sand.

Bleh!

Wang Shuo bent down and tousled his hair. Specks of yellow sand trickled down like fluttering snow.

"I almost choked to death!"

It took Wang Shuo quite a while to recover.

Then he smelt a strong, sour smell coming from his body.

"Ugh!"

What was the concept of wearing the same clothes for a week in the middle of summer?

Wang Shuo experienced this first hand. Basically, you could pickle vegetables with them after taking them off.

Previously, he didn't feel anything. But now that he had relaxed, the stench assaulted Wang Shuo's mind.

He quickly pulled off all his clothes and underwear. Then he buried them into the sand and scrubbed them nonstop.

After more than ten minutes and changing several places, he finally felt that most of the smell was gone. At least, it wasn't as pungent anymore.

After putting his clothes back on, Wang Shuo couldn't help but look at the Nike sneakers he had spent more than $200 on. Two large holes had unknowingly appeared on the toe area, and the wind was blowing into the shoes.

Actually, it was rather cooling and comfortable.

Jokes aside, Wang Shuo sighed. "Is such a realistic world really just a game?"

Wang Shuo shook his head and started checking the game notifications.

[You killed Sand Soldiers x32.]

[You receive White Treasure Chest x32.]

[You destroyed the Sand Race Army Camp.]

[You receive Sand Race's Inheritance Treasure Chest.]

[Congratulations. You have completed the Second Trial. Rewards: Basic Auction Rights, Special Treasure Chest x1]

[Basic Auction Rights: You can hold auctions in 10 rooms every day.]

[Special Treasure Chest: Upon opening, you will receive an item no lower than Lower Mystic Tier.]

"What a bounty!"

Wang Shuo could not hold back his excitement.

He was not surprised that he had completed the second trial with ease.

According to his guess, clearing two bosses with the difficulty he faced should be sufficient to clear the second trial.

It was not impossible to complete the first and second levels with a certain amount of luck.

However, other than people with a cheat like him, normal players would definitely not be able to defeat the boss in the third level.

Perhaps some lucky players might be able to get something like the Primordial Chaos Skill, but it was absolutely impossible for them to draw the maximum number of Five Grains Pills in every chest.

Without sufficient Five Grains Pills, it was impossible to break through to the perfection of the first stage.

At that time, there would only be one outcome when facing the sand race army—either transforming into the race or dying.

If someone like him, who cleared the trial with his own strength all the way, didn't get the best rewards, the game designers would seriously be giant assholes.

"Now, time for the rewards!"

First were the White Treasure Chests.

[The player is undergoing a random draw. [Selection Option] automatically activated.]

[Here are the options…]

[Five Grains Pill x10]

[Five Grains Pill x30]

[Five Grains Pill x50]

[Water Droplets x(same as above)]

[Refined Sand x1—Material for refining sand armor.]

[Yellow Sand Halberd x1 (Fragment)]

Grade: Upper Yellow Tier

Description: One word: Powerful.

Fragment 1/5 (Collect all the fragments to form a complete weapon.)

Although he expected that the treasure chest's drop rate would increase again, he didn't expect the yield of Five Grains Pill and Water Droplets to more than double.

But after seeing the material and weapon fragment at the bottom, Wang Shuo immediately fell into a dilemma.

He had experienced the sand armor's defense, and it was truly extraordinary.

If he wasn't wrong, there should be a way to refine the sand armor in the Inheritance Treasure Chest.

The Yellow Sand Halberd was an upper yellow-tier weapon, and its value was also hard to estimate.

"Forget it. Let's see what the remaining treasure chests can give.

"First is the Inheritance Treasure Chest."

…

[Bloodline Body Tempering Technique]

Grade: Upper Yellow Tier

Description: …

Note: …

[Piercing Snow Blade]

Grade: Lower Mystic Tier

Description: Powerful and domineering. It has boundless might.

[Sand Armor]

Level: Upper Yellow Tier

Description: By refining sand into sand armor through unique methods, it becomes flexible and very tough.

"Only upper yellow tier?"

Wang Shuo frowned. With his current strength, he was no longer interested in items below the mystic tier.

"Why don't I see what the Special Treasure Chest has?"
