Chapter 8 Qualification Enhancement
Chapter 8 Qualification Enhancement
Karl glanced at his son. They say old people are shrewd and cunning. Although Karl looked like he was in his thirties, he was, after all, an old monster who had lived for over two hundred years.
I understand my son's thoughts to some extent.
His gaze swept over the items in the shop.
Qualification Enhancement Symbol.
Priced at 30,000 points, it can raise your cultivation talent to the level of an eighth-level warrior.
Level 8 is further divided into Warrior and Mage, but Mages have higher talent requirements. There are items in the shop that can improve the talent of Level 8 Mages, but they are more expensive, costing up to 100,000 points.
With 100,000 points, Karl could consider upgrading his warrior to level nine.
The system's enhancement of cultivation speed is not simply about increasing the speed of cultivation, but also about raising one's own upper limit.
He could only cultivate to the level six warrior. But if he cultivated to the peak of level six, he could use that extra one percent to have the opportunity to come into contact with level seven warriors.
The reason why there are so few level 7 warriors in Xinghuo Town is largely because many people in the town do not even have the aptitude to cultivate to the peak of level 6.
But things are different now. A level two territory can provide a 10% boost to the territory's residents. Previously, they might have only been able to barely reach the level six warrior level, but now they have the opportunity to cultivate to the peak of level six. And those residents who could cultivate to the peak of level six have a greater chance of breaking through to the level seven warrior level.
Even warriors who could only cultivate to the mid-to-late stage of level six may have the possibility of breaking through to level seven.
However, points are hard to come by. After breaking through to the Saint Realm, AFK cultivation at the Saint Realm level requires even more points. Almost every point of progress requires 1000 points. Moreover, Saint Realm cultivation not only requires improving one's battle qi, but also improving one's understanding of the power of heaven and earth.
Over the past three years, the number of points I have gained each day has not changed much. The only source of points for me is the original residents of my territory. As for Starfire City, those residents have not yet truly accepted Karl's rule and cannot provide me with points.
Each point of progress in Battle Qi requires 1000 points to cultivate through AFK training. On average, it takes Karl about four days to see a slight increase in Battle Qi.
It wasn't that Karl didn't want to cultivate on his own, but rather that his aptitude was poor. Without a cheat system, he would have been doing quite well to maintain his current progress without falling behind.
Achieving the Saintly Realm involves a transformation of both body and soul, which is the key to the Saintly Realm's longevity. This transformation is merely to satisfy the Saintly Realm's cultivation needs.
If the foundation is poor, even if there is a transformation, the improvement that can be achieved will be quite limited.
This results in Karl taking an average of ten days to improve his progress in both Battle Qi and the Power of Heaven and Earth.
This is still the points that Karl might be able to save, after all, points are also needed within the territory to ensure good weather and prevent disasters.
Otherwise, the mere cold weather could cause residents to catch a cold, and although a cold is nothing serious in this magical world, it still requires a priest to treat it.
As for priests, there are only a few in the capital of the kingdom. As for towns and villages, the proud priests are not doctors who heal the sick.
Karl had learned this lesson the hard way before, and as a result, many residents died from catching a cold on the way to fetch the priest. It was because of this experience that Karl realized that in the eyes of some people, the status of ordinary people was even lower than that of their pets.
But for Carl, the residents are very important. The existence of the security team is mainly to protect the residents. Placing the security team next to the central square is precisely to maximize its influence over the entire town.
Looking at his son, Karl Talos pondered, his fingers stroking the teacup. He glanced at his points in the shop and finally made a decision.
His son has been in power for over a hundred years, and he knows that the boy values power to some extent. But he is his son after all, and there was nothing he could do before. Now that he has the opportunity, Karl wants to give him a hand.
Thinking of this, Karl slowly said, "Now that Starfire City has been established, the members of the security team should be arranged to go there as soon as possible, and the residents of the town should also be moved there as much as possible. Everything should be arranged first, and food, clothing, housing and transportation should be provided in a way that is in place. We cannot forget our original intention just because we have established a city-state."
Karl naturally had to give his son a warning. Looking at the nearly empty points, with the current contributions of the territory's residents, there were still more than four hundred points every day.
"Over 400 points, in three years."
Karl still felt a pang of regret. He had lived for over two hundred years, and his eldest son was already 240 years old. In his previous life, everyone would call him an old monster at that age. Even in this magical world, two hundred years was still considered young in the eyes of those Saint-level powerhouses who had lived for ages.
But people's hearts change. When my second son passed away, I was so heartbroken that I couldn't recover for half a year. But as my third, fourth, and fifth sons, my eldest grandson, my second grandson, and many other blood relatives across three generations passed away one after another, even the deepest sorrow couldn't withstand too many experiences.
Human hearts are made of flesh and blood. As people live longer, in order to avoid such sorrowful emotions as much as possible, those immortal beings will more or less choose the same way, which is to ignore the development of their family.
As long as one is not related to one's own family, one will not feel any distress when one's descendants die. Even hundreds or thousands of years later, when the family bloodline is cut off, as long as it is not caused by human intervention, Karl will probably only sigh in his heart that his bloodline has been cut off.
However, his son was the one who had been with him the longest, and their bond had grown deep over the years. Now that he had the means, Karl naturally wouldn't let his only remaining child stop at level seven and eventually die of old age just so he could cultivate for a few more years.
At Karl's suggestion, the establishment of Starfire City was rather simple, without any fanfare, and only a few level nine warriors in the Anlan Kingdom paid a little attention to it.
After all, in their view, a level nine expert of the same level would not remain holed up in the territory of a small town forever.
The establishment of Starfire City will not affect the current situation of Anlan Kingdom. Even those level nine powerhouses only sent envoys to offer their congratulations. Even the Anlan royal family did the same. At most, they only granted Karl the title of Marquis because he chose to build the city.
Three more years passed in this way.
The peaceful and prosperous life in Xinghuo City gradually began to stir up waves in the Anlan Kingdom.
Everyone wants to live in a better place. Compared to the high taxes in their hometown, the taxes in Xinghuo City are incredibly low. As long as you work hard, you can eat your fill, dress warmly, and even get married with enough confidence.
