Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Chapter 246 - 99: Returning Fully Loaded

At this moment.

Her gaze landed on Shen Fei, who had quietly appeared just now, and she signaled the others to go and take their positions.

"Hey, you, come with me."

Mu Qing walked side by side with Shen Fei back to the command room, and on the way, her beautiful eyes looked at Shen Fei with curiosity.

"Did you really get your hands on that Drought Fiend’s stuff?"

Shen Fei saw no need to hide it and nodded, saying, "My Summoned Beast swallowed that statue..."

He hadn’t even had time to see what the changes to the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable were.

He just put it into the Summoning Space first.

He was worried that the Drought Fiend could somehow arrive directly through that faint aura.

Now with Zhenyuan City, plus the added layer of the Summoning Space.

The Drought Fiend shouldn’t be able to do anything.

Besides, he hadn’t heard of anyone being able to kill a Summoned Beast through the Summoning Space.

"Impressive."

Mu Qing sincerely praised him.

In previous plans, she only intended for Shen Fei to deal with the extra Tier Seven in the Corpse Stiff Abyss.

But now, the entire Corpse Stiff Abyss had been turned upside down, and all problems were resolved.

With the Image of the Drought Fiend gone.

Even the Celestial Corpse was securely locked within the Pollution Core.

"We really owe it to you this time." Mu Qing let out a small sigh, feeling her burden lighten significantly.

Now that the Corpse Stiff Abyss had temporarily calmed down, people like Dugu Yan could head to other abysses for support.

The combat power needed to be stationed here wasn’t as necessary anymore.

This reduction would also ease the pressure on other defensive points in the Central China Military Region.

A single move shifts the entire situation.

"But you need to be careful, too. Although only your Summoned Beast is operating outside.

With the capabilities of the Celestial Corpse and the Drought Fiend, who knows if they might have ways to harm you through your Summoned Beast."

"Moreover, you haven’t just offended the Celestial Corpse; the key issue is the Drought Fiend on that fifth floor..."

Mu Qing knew Shen Fei was cautious, but she didn’t want him to become too complacent because of his strength.

She reminded him, "Tier Ten is not as simple as you think. Even if I can withstand one strike, I’m already a strong one among Tier Nine."

"I understand."

Shen Fei nodded. The Empress had long told him that even if she entered the ’Magic God’ state and used all amplifications, she still couldn’t defeat Tier Nine.

Not to mention those above Tier Nine.

And for those Tier Eight he just recently defeated, aside from the newly promoted Corpse Maiden.

There really was some luck and timing involved.

However, Shen Fei believed that the time to easily defeat Tier Eight was not far off.

"And now that the Corpse Stiff Abyss issue is resolved, I plan to return to school. I’ve earned enough money too."

Shen Fei chuckled. After plowing through this fourth floor, there’s really no money left to earn.

Hearing Shen Fei’s words, Mu Qing thought of the equipment Shen Fei had turned in and the military merit he had accrued, shaking her head and saying, "Only you could accomplish this much."

Mu Qing knew that Shen Fei’s drop rate was certainly unusual.

But that’s Shen Fei’s own secret.

And the fact that his Summoned Beast could even swallow Tier Ten objects.

The secret behind this must be significant.

Still, Mu Qing wasn’t worried that Shen Fei had no secrets; rather, she feared that what he exposed might just be his entirety.

In turbulent times, there is always a savior.

The more secrets, the greater Shen Fei’s potential.

"Alright, I’ll faithfully report your actions to the Breaking Abyss Army. It seems you might get promoted soon."

"You definitely can’t escape being a Major; if possible, I’ll even try to push for Lieutenant Colonel for you."

"With this kind of promotion speed, you’re truly a unique case in the Breaking Abyss Army."

Mu Qing shook her head.

Not long ago, they even had a meeting in the Breaking Abyss Army about whether or not to award Shen Fei the Golden Medal.

And now, Shen Fei, despite not even officially joining, was already a Battalion Commander.

Now moving further up, that would be to Colonel.

This speed of promotion is truly like taking a rocket; a few years back, you’d have to be vetted for a period first.

They also needed to thoroughly understand the person’s background from inside out, to avoid them being a demon spy or a long-term infiltrated spy from another country.

But now, in these troubled times where heavy measures are used, the Military Commander is bold and decisive, promoting heavily as long as there’s capability, after a preliminary background check.

Shen Fei just happens to be used as a benchmark example, so basically, as long as there’s sufficient merit, it’s all green lights ahead.

But with Shen Fei’s ability, even being a Division Commander would be enough; being a Colonel is somewhat underutilizing his talents.

"Commander, I’ll take my leave, then."

Shen Fei still had to go back and study his newly advanced Celestial Dao Demon Venerable.

The main thing was, the changes were too significant.

Meanwhile.

With the advance in levels of this Corpse Stiff Abyss, he now had 11 attempts for drawing entries.

He planned to keep 3 as a trump card and use the remaining 8 after returning.

To take another step in enhancing his strength.

"Okay."

Mu Qing nodded, "Just as Fang Qingluan plans to go on a rotation; she’s heading to the Imperial Capital, why not go with her?"

"Alright."

...

Shen Fei and Fang Qingluan walked side by side out of the Teleportation Array of the Corpse Stiff Abyss and returned to Blue Star.

"Welcome back!"

The Breaking Abyss Army stationed at the Teleportation Array saluted Fang Qingluan and Shen Fei.

"You’ve worked hard."

Shen Fei returned the salute with a smile.

Due to the riots in the Corpse Stiff Abyss, unlike some other less severe abysses where social Professionals could go.

The Professionals in the Corpse Stiff Abyss were all from the Breaking Abyss Army.

It was taken over by the Military Region.

Fang Qingluan took a deep breath, her chest heaving slightly but not noticeably.

"The air on Blue Star is really nice, while the air in the Corpse Stiff Abyss always carries a stench of corpses."

With eyes carrying a hint of sharpness, she glanced at Shen Fei, shaking her head, "I never expected you’d be just a newcomer student."

"Those old folks had high hopes for Fang Ruxue becoming the first among peers.

But now, before the race even started, it seems they’ve already lost."

Shen Fei smiled and said, "Even without me, Fang Ruxue wouldn’t be the first among her peers."

As they walked, Fang Qingluan, intrigued by Shen Fei’s words, asked, "Besides Fang Ruxue?"

"There’s another, Su Muyu."

Shen Fei had already learned from Little Pu that Su Muyu had completed the advancement task.

Although she hadn’t returned yet.

He asked Little Pu what was going on, and Little Pu said the Mistress had another task to do and instructed her not to tell Shen Fei.

Although curious, Shen Fei respected Su Muyu’s autonomy and didn’t push for answers since Su Muyu wanted it to be confidential.

He just instructed Little Pu to immediately teleport her back if she was ever in danger.

"Su Muyu..."

Fang Qingluan was more familiar with Fang Ruxue due to the Fang Family relations, and being a Heavenly Pride herself, she rarely sought understanding of other Heavenly Prides.

She now sought to understand only opponents of the same level.

Her former opponents from her school days are now few and far between, as Tier Seven was a significant hurdle.

Not everyone could kill a higher tier as effortlessly as Shen Fei.

But since Shen Fei mentioned it, it implied that Su Muyu indeed surpassed Fang Ruxue.

After moving some distance away from the Military Region, a longsword appeared before Fang Qingluan.

In the next moment, the longsword expanded with the wind, turning into a giant sword as large as a door panel, floating beneath Fang Qingluan’s feet.

Fang Qingluan looked at Shen Fei and asked, "Do you need a lift?"

"I would like to try Sword Flight."

Shen Fei didn’t refuse and was actually a bit eager, curiously stepping onto the giant sword.

He felt no sensation of wobbling; it was like walking on flat ground.

After all, what boy hasn’t dreamed of being a Sword Cultivator?

Unfortunately, Shen Fei was a Summoner.

Strength and style are for a lifetime, but Sword Class Professionals are undoubtedly the most stylish!

Fang Qingluan nodded and stepped onto the giant sword.

"Swift!"

In the next moment.

The giant sword instantly broke the sound barrier; with a booming sound, a gust of wind swept across both sides, countless white air currents blocked outside.

The sonic booms were left far behind the sword as the giant sword turned into a sword light, heading in the direction of Imperial University.
