Chapter 41 – Take advantage of Yi Lianen
A few massive question marks appeared above Qiao Yu's head.
Don't give it away? Fing hell, why didn't you say so earlier!
I already killed that mother spider, and now you're telling me not to give it away? Are you messing with me?
"Yu bro, shouldn't you take some medicine or bandage yourself up first?" Yang Xiangdi pointed to the still bleeding hole on Qiao Yu's body.
"It's fine, just a minor wound," Qiao Yu waved it off.
"By the way, Yu bro, what was that Hakutaku organization you mentioned to Xun Dong earlier? It sounds pretty impressive!" Yang Xiangdi asked.
"How would I know?"
Qiao Yu and Yang Xiangdi stared at each other.
"I was just feeling a bit weak and was bluffing that woman Xun Dong. I've never even heard of Hakutaku."
"Fing hell, it's one thing to lie, but you even tricked the mother spider? Yu bro, you're something else, no wonder you're my bro!"
Yang Xiangdi smirked mischievously as he realized the truth.
"Right? Hehehe, if that mother spider weren't so dumb, I might not have been able to beat her," Qiao Yu chuckled.
Who knows if Xun Dong would be furious if she heard their conversation.
At this moment, the long-dormant Inner World system finally reacted again.
[Unknown error in Ten Thousand Poison Den dungeon has been resolved, recalculating...]
[Congratulations to the five players for successfully clearing the mage-exclusive dungeon! The system is evaluating the players' completion ratings.]
[Evaluation complete:
Player Long Chang: Grade F
Player Fang Xun: Grade E
Player Fang Yuan: Grade E
Player Yang Xiangdi: Grade A
Player Qiao Yu: Grade S
The system will distribute rewards based on player ratings.]
[Now distributing S-grade reward to player Qiao Yu: Experience +100, 10 free attribute points, Grade A skill book "Gate of Arka"]
[Congratulations on leveling up, current experience: 15/1000, reward of 5 free attribute points.]
Seeing the 15/1000 experience, Qiao Yu felt a pang of frustration. How many dungeons would it take to reach level 11?
But it made sense, after all, going from level 10 to level 11 represented the transformation from the Apprentice Realm to the Beginner Tier.
Only after entering the Beginner Tier could one be considered a capable Inner World player.
Qiao Yu approached Xun Dong's soul core, ready to reach in, but quickly pulled back.
"Long Chang!"
"Huh? What? What's up?" Long Chang looked confused.
"Give me a water spell, I need to wash my hands!" Qiao Yu said seriously.
Long Chang: .......
Finally, after washing his hands as he wished, Qiao Yu began to open Xun Dong's soul core.
"Hmm?"
Qiao Yu's handsome face was full of shock because he had actually found three pieces of equipment!
[Wild Spider Armor]:
Grade: B
Effect: Increases player's health by 800 points.
Class Restriction: None
Level Restriction: Beginner Tier (lv11)
"Wow, not bad!"
Looking at the pitch-black Wild Spider Armor, Qiao Yu was delighted. This equipment was perfect for his Mighty Pact skill.
And the 800-point health boost would undoubtedly make his health bar much thicker.
Even if his agility wasn't high enough and he got hit, he wouldn't be instantly killed.
The only downside was that he had to wait until the Beginner Tier to use this equipment.
After placing the Wild Spider Armor into his storage space, Qiao Yu looked at the other two pieces of equipment.
[Orient Loong God Crescent Blade]:
Grade: D
Effect: An indestructible blade, seemingly without any special effects.
Class Restriction: None
Level Restriction: Apprentice (lv5)
[Fairy Robe]:
Grade: D
Effect: Increases player's intelligence and spirit by 10%.
Class Restriction: Mage
Qiao Yu weighed the Orient Loong God Crescent Blade in his hand.
The blade was heavy, with a curled-up dragon swallowing the moon design on it. The embossed dragon scales increased the grip, making it hard to drop.

Buzz!
Qiao Yu gave the blade a light swing, and the heavy blade made the air buzz.
"Great, this heavy blade is perfect for us Necromancers!"
Qiao Yu couldn't hide his joy. The Orient Loong God Crescent Blade was much better than his previous novice staff.
With this blade, Qiao Yu believed he could easily chop off Xun Dong's eight legs if they fought again.
"Hmm... Fairy Robe..."
Qiao Yu turned to Yang Xiangdi.
"Xiangdi, what B-grade skill did you get?"
Based on his previous A-grade rating experience, an A-grade rating seemed to grant a B-grade skill book.
In the Inner World, skills were mainly acquired in two ways: monster drops and system rewards, or through marketplace transactions.
"No B-grade, but I got three C-grade skills!" Yang Xiangdi said.
"Three C-grade?" Qiao Yu was surprised. It seemed the Inner World's rating rewards weren't fixed. "What skills did you get?"
"Hold on, let me see... Earth Shield Wall, Earth Dragon Bullet, and a C-grade Yellow Spring Earth Swamp!" Yang Xiangdi said excitedly.
Yellow Spring Earth Swamp was a control skill similar to Sand Binding, but stronger.
"Don't get too excited yet, I have something good for you!" Qiao Yu smirked.
"Ta-da!"
"Fairy Robe!"
Qiao Yu pulled out a pink robe with a cute Hello Kitty on it.
"Got it, it's for me again, right? Bring it on, you beast!"
Yang Xiangdi cooperatively took the robe and draped it over himself.
Yang Xiangdi, without any excess fat, wearing the Hello Kitty robe and holding a bow-tied staff, had a unique charm.
Looking at Yang Xiangdi's strong and upright figure, Qiao Yu felt a bit uncomfortable. He still preferred Yang Xiangdi's chubby and cute look.
"By the way, are you going to stay looking this handsome from now on?" Qiao Yu asked.
"No way! Yu bro, let me tell you," Yang Xiangdi's eyes sparkled.
"I found out that burning fat not only temporarily makes me stronger, but about one-tenth of the spirit attribute is permanently increased!"
"So when I get back, I must eat even more! I want to become the fattest man. If I reach 500 pounds and then burn the fat..."
Yang Xiangdi's eyes were full of longing. The idea of getting stronger just by eating was like a dream come true for him.
Qiao Yu's eyes were also filled with envy. Why did he have to struggle with melee combat to get stronger, while Yang Xiangdi just had to eat?
And he could slim down instantly after eating. It's ridiculous, like Fing Hell opening the door to ridiculousness, reaching the peak of absurdity! Are you there, Inner World system? There's a cheater here!
After tallying their gains, the group left the Ten Thousand Poison Den dungeon through the Light Gate, where Yi Lianen was already waiting for them.
Yi Lianen gave a sweet smile and said, "Congratulations to the five players for completing the Ten Thousand Poison Den dungeon and resolving the unknown error for the Inner World."
"As an additional reward, I will increase both your spirit and intelligence attributes by 20%."
With a gentle wave of her hand, five beams of light fell on Qiao Yu and the others, instantly raising their spirit and intelligence attributes by 20%.
"Wow, Yu bro, this reward is amazing! A 20% boost!" Yang Xiangdi said excitedly.
"Yeah, yeah."
"Hey? Yu bro, what's wrong? Are you sick? Why do you look so upset?"
"It's nothing, I've just had too much black-hearted soy sauce," Qiao Yu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but he couldn't say it outright.
His intelligence and spirit were both 0, so a 20% boost was still 0. This reward was meaningless to him!
No way!
The more Qiao Yu thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He had put in the most effort, yet he got nothing in return.
He had to get something back from Yi Lianen, or he'd feel too aggrieved.
Under Yang Xiangdi's puzzled gaze, Qiao Yu slowly leaned towards Yi Lianen's crystal-clear earlobe and whispered softly, "I'm your dad!"
