“Seventy Spirit Power, three levels, and a skill.” Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice. The skill and the level were just an additional bonus as his main objective was the Spirit Power. “Just seventy Spirit Powers for Grade S Spirit?” He felt like it was too little as he expected to get a few hundred Spirit Power from Grade S Spirit. That was why he did not hesitate to sacrifice Grade S Spirit, thinking he could get a few hundred of Spirit Power at once.

Now he got the result from sacrificing the Grade S Spirit, and he hesitated to continue with his project. He had dozens of Epic Ranks bodies, ten Myth Rank, six Primordial Rank bodies, and three Legend Rank bodies. If he sacrificed two Epic Rank bodies, he was guaranteed to get at least Grade A Spirit.

—There’s no need to hurry, Master. I also feel like it’s worth sacrificing a strong Spirit for Spirit Power if the exchange is this low. We can wait longer, and a few years are not a problem for us, who have been waiting for hundreds of years.

Zaneos was able to read Tang Shaoyang’s thoughts and spoke. The Infernal Demon felt like it was not worth sacrificing Grade S Spirit for just seventy Spirit Power. No matter what, their Master’s safety was the top priority.

—I have to agree with Zaneos. If sacrificing that spirit gives you at least ten levels, then it’s worth it, but it’s not worth it if it’s just three levels. As for the skill, I don’t think you need more skills. Your objective is to reach the Myth Rank.

Zowen followed up with her statement to support Zaneos.

“If that is the case, it will be worth it to sacrifice the high-grade spirit. The only way to level up is to kill someone on the same level as me, but there’s none now unless I want to do some crazy sh*t like killing my subordinate.” Tang Shaoyang was helpless with the current situation. The only way for him to level up was to go to the stronger world. However, he could not leave his empire too long and neglect his duty as a leader of many people.

—Don’t you just need to kill the two Legend Ranks on the Warmir Kingdom? I think that will be enough for you to reach level 3000.

“That’s true, but Alton asked me not to interfere in the battle this time. Just like I need to level up, they also need to level up. I can’t hold their growth by taking all the fight.” Tang Shaoyang let out a sigh. Moonsong and Alton specifically requested Tang Shaoyang to trust them with the Warmir Kingdom’s subjugation.

After killing three Legend Ranks himself, Tang Shaoyang could not refuse their request. If his force did not grow stronger along with him, that meant he failed as a leader. So the chance to reach level 3000 quickly was through the Spirit Sacrifice. “I have told them, though, that I will be taking the dead bodies. Let’s continue with the Spirit Sacrifice for now.”

Tang Shaoyang checked his inventory and counted how many Epic Rank bodies he had. He had twenty-seven Epic Rank dead bodies in total. “Let’s try to sacrifice one body first.” He threw the dead body a few meters ahead of him and extended his hand toward the body before casting the skill. The body burst into red mist, and someone came out from that red mist.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised that the summoning phenomenon was this simple. He waited for the notification to know what grade spirit he summoned by sacrificing one body of the Epic Rank.

You have summoned Grade A Spirit, Warkin the Flame Knight!

Warkin had a red-armored plate armor with a long sword on his waist and a shield on his back. The man looked toward Tang Shaoyang through the gap between the helmet with a sharp gaze. After that, the Flame Knight glanced toward Maldros and Arkanos.

Warking pulled the shield from his back and put it on his left hand as his right hand pulled the long sword. The Flame Knight was ready to fight even though Tang Shaoyang had not done anything.

‘Do any of you know a guy called Warkin? I am going to sacrifice this guy.’ He asked his spirit. There were a lot of spirit knights from the Ortis Continent on his list, so he asked them. However, none of them answered, meaning no one recognized Warkin or the spirit knights were too scared to admit it, thinking they would get sacrificed if they admitted Warkin as their friend.

“It’s Grade A Spirit. Do you still want to fight, Arkanos?” Tang Shaoyang turned toward Arkanos, who was waiting next to him. This guy was not satisfied that Maldros helped him in the previous fight, so he offered another fight.

“Yes, Master. Leave him to me. I will finish this fight quickly.” Arkanos nodded and pulled his two blades out. He walked toward Warkin in a slow step. The first one to make a move was Warkin. The Flame Knight’s body shrouded in fire and rushed toward Arkanos. The movement left behind a trail of flame as Warkin thrust the sword toward Arkanos’ chest. At the same time, Warkin held the shield to protect his chest area.

“Not that easy.” Arkanos raised his left foot and stomped on the ground. An ice wall formed in front of him, blocking the flaming knight’s sword. The sword pierced through the ice wall, but it failed to break it.

The Flame Knight tried to pull his sword, but his sword stuck on the ice wall. All of a sudden, the ice wall broke into pieces. Arkanos rushed through the ice wall and slashed his fire sword horizontally. The flame blade formed and cut through the air. Warkin immediately raised his shield and blocked the flame blade.

Boom!

Warkin’s body was sent flying from the impact, but the Flame Knight managed to land on his feet. Warkin was left unscathed from their first exchange despite the obvious power gap.

“A decent experienced knight, but he is summoned not at the right time.” Tang Shaoyang commented as he watched the fight.
