Chapter 1265  Way of Destruction

"17,571… 17571… 17571…" Zhang Mengyao muttered the number three times with heavy tones. That was the number of casualties. The biggest casualties the Tang Empire ever had. That meant there were the same number of families who lost someone precious to them. It was a surprise attack, what if they fought in the open field without their setup? She did not dare imagine how many people would die from her side.

"The people are waiting for you, Supreme General Zhang," Marshal Alton reminded Zhang Mengyao. He had nothing to say about the number of casualties. Based on his experiences, this was a big victory, killing over two hundred thousand armies with less than eighteen thousand casualties. However, he knew that Zhang Mengyao was not used yet with the big war. If he tried to comfort her, that would make things worse.

Zhang Mengyao closed her eyes and let out a sigh. The Tarrior was waiting for her speech and also celebration. A celebration for the victorious battle was needed to keep the morale high, 'I can't appear weak in front of my soldiers. I can't show them my weakness.'

Her heavy expression turned emotionless as she headed out. They were still in the same area, and Zhang Mengyao held her speech from the balcony on the second floor where Reinar lay motionlessly at the railing.

The victorious cries resonated in the air as the Tarrior cheered for the speech, causing the building to shake a little bit. Zhang Mengyao turned toward Reinar after the speech. Her eyes showed hatred for the man. This would not happen if not for this man who suddenly tried to join the battle. She grabbed his leg and returned to the building, dragging the man on the floor.

The Tarrior also returned to the building. The celebration would be held in multiple places, not here. While they had eliminated the Giteron Dynasty's force, their actual enemy was the Federation of Allurion and the Divine Church. The Tarrior would return to their posts and hold the celebration there.

Herman Bonivido, Henry, and Frans were waiting next to the teleportation portal. The three looked at Zhang Mengyao nervously. After witnessing the battle, they realized that the Tang Empire was much stronger than they thought. Herman wanted to say something, but the words did not come out until she disappeared into the portal with the captive.

"How am I supposed to know that the Tang Empire is so strong?" Herman muttered his regret. If he knew the Tang Empire was this strong, then he would not accept the Giteron Dynasty's offer. He agreed to the temporary alliance, and the Tang Empire was capable of helping them against the Saint Guild and The Blue Vest Guild.

"What should we do now, Frans?" He turned toward his Vice Guild Leader.

"We must prepare ourselves," Frans smiled bitterly. It was not Herman's fault, but also his fault. If not for his support, Herman would not take the Giteron Dynasty, "There's nothing we could do but prepare ourselves for the future fight. We must get stronger while the Tang Empire is busy with the World Government."

"Hah… Hah… Hah…" Tang Shaoyang breathed heavily as the creature in front of him crumbled. He did not expect the bonus wave of the Trial of Legend to be so strong. His last enemy was a three-headed bone dragon, and it forced him to use True Dragon Form. His vision blurred for a moment as his body swayed to the side. He almost fell as he was still not accustomed to True Dragon Form. After using the skill his head would ache and dizzy. He let himself fall to the ground, facing the sky.

The three-headed bone dragon gave him a lot of levels. He reached level 8451 after finishing the trial, and he got over three hundred levels by killing the three-headed bone dragon while the monster wave gave him a little over a hundred levels.

[Congratulations! You have finished The Trial of Legend!]

[You have Advanced to the Primordial Rank!]

[Please choose the following rewards!]

[(Bloodline) (Class) (Artifact)]

Tang Shaoyang put aside the reward because he heard more notifications than that one. There was a notification that he had not heard for a long time.

[Congratulations! Your main class Exalted Monarch of Spirit has advanced to Divine Monarch of Spirit!]

[Your attributes' gain doubled!]

[You have been granted 1 Archaic Summoning!]

[You gained 100,000 Spirit Power!]

[You have learned a skill, Spirit Domain!]

[You have learned a skill, Spirit Manifestation!]

[You have learned a skill, Ethereal Body!]

[Congratulations! Your second class Legend Slayer has advanced to God Slayer!]

[Your attributes' gain doubled!]

[Slayer Energy gain doubled!]

[You have gained 100,000 Slayer Energy!]

[You have learned a skill, Slayer Fury!]

[You have learned a skill, Slayer Perception (Passive)]

[You have learned a skill, Way of Slayer (Passive)]

[Friction skill detected! Attempting fusion skill, Wrath and Slayer Fury!]

[Fusion skill succeeded!]

[You have learned a skill, Wrath of Slayer!]

Tang Shaoyang was surprised to see his class advancement. He thought both classes had reached the maximum potential since the two classes did not advance even after his rank advancement. This was a pleasant surprise and something he really needed in this situation. He checked the new six skills, and there was one skill that caught his attention, Way of Slayer. He got foreign knowledge in his head and several destructive methods of using Slayer Energy. However, just like the Nine Heavenly Gates, he needed to learn it manually. He could not use the skill just because he wanted to.

"Unfortunately, I don't have that much time to learn the Way of Slayer…" He muttered in pity. It had been at least ten days since he took the trial, meaning he must return soon. It was a pity that he did not have time to learn the move, and it was a pity that he could not reach the Demi-God Rank. The Legend Rank was the highest he could reach for now, not because of the time, but because he was on the twenty-fourth floor of the Ancient Rank Dimensional. There was only one floor worth of monsters and beasts left for him, and that was not enough for him to reach the Demi-God Rank. He needed at least five floors worth of monsters to reach the Demi-God Rank.

If it was before, he would try his new skills, but again, he did not have that much time. He then focused back on the trial reward; Bloodline, Class, and Artifact. Tang Shaoyang had made the decision before he finished the trial. He chose Class for the Trial of Legend.

[Void Ranger] [Way of Destruction] [Demon Hunter] [Primordial Wizard] [Primordial Knight] [Draconic Executioner]

Yet, it was another surprise for Tang Shaoyang as the System presented him with six choices instead of five. He did not understand what made the System offer him six choices, but having more choices was better. After skimming over the names of the six classes, he eliminated the class that did not suit his way of fighting.

Tang Shaoyang did not bother to give Void Ranger, Primordial Wizard, and Primordial Knight consideration, leaving with the other three classes. He did not really understand what Demon Hunter was, but he got a little bit of a clue because of Zara.

[I think Demon Hunter will make you especially strong against Demon. I have heard about Demon Hunter before, but I don't know much about the class.] That was what Zara said after sensing his confusion about the Demon Hunter. Even though it was just a guess, her guess made sense. His enemy was not the demon, so he eliminated Demon Hunter from his option, leaving with Draconic Executioner and Way of Destruction.

"Does that mean Draconic Executioner will make especially strong against Dragon?" Tang Shaoyang said to himself. If Demon Hunter would make him strong against Demon, it meant Draconic Executioner would make him strong against Dragon. If that was the case, he was left with the last class, Way of Destruction. Based on the name, he indeed leaned to Way of Destruction. He felt like the class would suit his fighting style. He focused on destructive power, which was why he did not like a knight who had the balance between the defense and the offense. He did not waste that much time thinking about it as he chose Way of Destruction. He did not consider the other choices, following his instinct.

[You have obtained a third class, Way of Destruction!]

[You will gain +2000 Attribute Points each time you level up!]

[You have learned a skill, Destruction Strike!]

[You have learned a skill, Keen Sense (Passive)]

[You have learned a skill, Defense Penetration (Passive)]

[You have learned a skill, Crippling Spirit (Passive)]

[You have learned a skill, Energy Destruction Touch!]

[You have learned a skill, Calamitous Self-Destruction!]

Tang Shaoyang blinked his eyes, making sure that he did not see anything wrong with the last skill. He did not see it wrong. It was indeed Calamitous Self-Destruction. He did not need to try the skill… No, he did not want to try the skill. The skill was self-explanatory, self-destruct. He would die if he used the skill. He just did not think that such a skill that killed the user would exist.

Three passive skills and three active skills or maybe two active skills. He would never use Calamitous Self-Destruction as it might hurt his people as well. There was no way to find out the scale of the destruction unless he used the skill, but he would die if he used the skill. He might have Seven Souls, but he would not waste it just to test a skill.

Since the System did not provide any explanation about the skill, he could only try to understand it by its name. What pleased him the most was the two thousand Attribute Points gain per level. He could easily max out his attribute to the peak of Legend Rank with such a big gain of attribute points. Just learning the class, he got 16,900,000 Attribute Points as the previous level up was also counted into his gain. With the other bonuses, he had 21,162,800 Attribute Points.

He needed sixty thousand Attribute Points to increase his attribute per star, and he needed six million to max one of his attributes. With the Attribute Points he had right now, he easily maxed out three Legend Rank's attributes. He did not hesitate to max out his Strength, Vitality, and Magic Power.

————————————————

Attribute Points: 3,522,800

Strength: Legend (99-Star) [Max!]

Agility: Legend (1-Star) [0/60,000 AP 2-Star]

Vitality: Legend (99-Star) [Max!]

Stamina: Legend (1-Star) [0/60,000 AP 2-Star]

Magic Power: Legend (99-Star) [Max!]

————————————————

Tang Shaoyang blinked his eyes, realizing that he could easily max his attributes before he got into the next trial. He still had three and a half million AP even after maxing out three attributes. Here he thought he would not be able to max all attributes for the Legend Rank.

Tang Shaoyang put the remaining Attribute Points into Agility, boosting his Agility to 59-Star, halfway to the peak. He stood up with a big smile on his face. The hectic from the True Dragon Form had gone for quite a while, "It's time for me to return."
