446: I came but I still want to leave (ask for a gold ticket)
At this moment, Wei Xiaosu was truly just a step away from 7th tier, and he could barely contain his excitement. If he could successfully enter the 7th tier, he would be invincible in the upcoming battlefield.
However, imagination was beautiful, but reality was incredibly cruel. Wei Xiaosu originally thought that he only needed to spend a certain amount of faith power to directly break through the shackles of his realm, just like before.
But the consumption of faith power required to break through to the 7th tier almost shattered his worldview.
"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, millions..."
Wei Xiaosu looked at the string of numbers that appeared on the panel, and he was completely distraught. The massive amount of faith power he had gained earlier from a bowl of nine revolutions large intestine, let alone being used for a breakthrough, wasn't even enough for a fraction.
"1,000,000,000,000 faith power is required to break through to 7th tier!"
Wei Xiaosu counted it three times, back and forth. It was indeed 1 trillion faith power. Such a huge number, even if he covered his entire God Realm with skeletons, it would probably take several years to gather, not to mention that the current number of skeletons hadn't even filled one-tenth of the God Realm's area.
Previously, Wei Xiaosu was worried that the God Realm was not large enough; now, he was worried that his speed of summoning skeletons was not fast enough.
Especially after the Skeleton Mage mutated, his summoning quantity dropped by several orders of magnitude. Although the 4th tier Skeleton Mage provided more faith power, in terms of total amount, it still couldn't compare to before.
Wei Xiaosu's face was somewhat dark, but there was nothing much he could do. He could only try his best to summon more skeletons into the God Realm in the future, striving to gather that 1 trillion faith power within one to two years.
Since he couldn't break through to the 7th tier himself, he could only place all his hopes on the two Bone Dragons. As long as he could successfully raise them to the 7th tier, it would also be a manifestation of Wei Xiaosu's own strength.
Wei Xiaosu looked at the remaining Grave Incense and felt a bit regretful. He thought it was a waste; he should have saved it all for the two Bone Dragons.
But since things had come to this, he couldn't go back on it. After some consideration, he decided to prioritize raising the Magma Bone Dragon. If there was any left, he would use it on the Frost Bone Dragon.
After all, even if all the remaining Grave Incense was given to the Frost Bone Dragon, it wouldn't be enough to allow it to break through to the 7th tier. So, it was better to first raise the Magma Bone Dragon to 6th tier.
Thus, Wei Xiaosu then gave all the remaining Grave Incense to the two Bone Dragons. In the end, they did not disappoint. The Magma Bone Dragon leveled up from 51 to 62, and the Frost Bone Dragon also leveled up from 61 to 62.
In this way, the two Bone Dragons were once again on the same level. If they faced demon beasts, a typical 7th-Order Peak might not be their match under the suppression of Dragon's Might, and might even flee in panic due to the unbearable pressure.
As for the orcs, with the two Bone Dragons working together, even a typical 7th tier intermediate might not be their opponent. To defeat them, a 7th tier intermediate would be necessary, and to truly guarantee a win, a 7th-Order Peak orc would be required.
Naturally, that was only the combat power of the two Bone Dragons. If Wei Xiaosu and the Six High-Level Laborers were also included, let alone a 7th tier intermediate, they could even kill a 7th tier intermediate.
Next, Wei Xiaosu continued his journey. The location of the First Army was the furthest from 007 Human City. Even at Peppa's speed, it was already dark when they reached their destination.
Wei Xiaosu's arrival didn't cause much of a stir; in fact, most people didn't even know he had come. Perhaps Wei Xiaosu was now very famous on Blue Star for winning the exchange competition, but in this secret realm, very few people knew him.
At this moment, Wei Xiaosu was in an army tent, and only he and a muscular middle-aged man were inside.
The middle-aged man's name was Commander Cui Can, the Legion Commander of the First Army, a 9th Order Peak Microscopic expert. His strength was unmatched, truly a top-tier individual below the God Realm.
Logically, a Legion Commander like Commander Cui Can had no need to meet with Wei Xiaosu, let alone meet him alone.
But just a few hours ago, he received a message from his Commander, saying that a freshman named Wei Xiaosu would be coming to his legion and that he should make good use of him!
The words "make good use" were quite intriguing. With Commander Cui Can's discerning eye, he naturally saw through Wei Xiaosu's true strength at a glance; he was merely a 6th tier peak.
Perhaps at other times, Wei Xiaosu reaching the 6th tier peak at such a young age would be an absolute prodigy. But a 6th tier peak is still a 6th tier peak; great potential doesn't mean strong actual power.
Commander Cui Can was not a brainless brute. Since his Commander told him to "make good use" of Wei Xiaosu, it meant this kid must have something going for him and might not be as weak as he appeared on the surface.
But then again, even if Wei Xiaosu was like that kid from the Xu Family, capable of breaking through to 7th tier at 6th tier, what role could he play in the entire army group's operations?
He wasn't lacking a 7th tier expert here. If his Commander hadn't given him a heads-up, he would have been furious the moment he saw Wei Xiaosu and sent the kid back to Blue Star.
Such a promising talent couldn't be lost here. Now, in his eyes, Wei Xiaosu was already a monstrous genius comparable to Xu Tian, a candidate for another God-level expert in the future, and he had to be protected well.
If the beast race's brats knew that Wei Xiaosu had appeared in their legion, even the opposing Gods would probably disregard their dignity and personally attack them.
"Legion Commander, you mean my teachers and classmates were transferred to the Ninth Army Corps a few hours ago?" Wei Xiaosu asked, his face a bit stiff.
He found it strange. His teacher had clearly told him at noon that everyone was still in the First Army, so how did they all end up in the Ninth Army Corps in just half a day?
"Mhm." Commander Cui Can, seated at the head, lightly responded, showing no expression on his face, but a bitter smile in his heart.
Because this transfer order came directly from his Commander, as if it was specifically to make Wei Xiaosu miss them.
"The Ninth Army Corps just fought a major battle yesterday. Although it ended with the complete annihilation of the enemy, their personnel losses were extremely heavy, so your teachers and classmates were transferred there," Commander Cui Can thought for a moment and then explained.
Hearing this, Wei Xiaosu had no doubts, because when he first arrived at Human City at noon, he heard someone say that the Legion Commander of the Ninth Army Corps had displayed great power, personally beheading a Rank 9 Experts of the beast race on the battlefield. This matter couldn't be fake.
But if that's the case, doesn't that mean the Ninth Army Corps is very dangerous?
Wei Xiaosu's expression turned serious, and he immediately stood up and said, "Legion Commander, then I won't disturb you any longer. I'll head to the Ninth Army Corps right away."
However, at that moment, Commander Cui Can flashed and blocked Wei Xiaosu's path, a cunning smile spreading across his face as he said, "You came, and now you want to leave?"
