61: Go to the Imperial Capital

At this time, Su Bai and Sun Shan had already returned to Qinglong Academy, and the empire's announcement had spread throughout the streets and alleys.

"Someone has been enfeoffed as a marquis!"

"Good heavens, who is it?"

"Could it be that another demigod was killed?"

"Impossible, if a demigod falls, there should be a world announcement."

"Su Bai—Champion Marquis."

When everyone heard this news, they instantly erupted.

At just eighteen years old, he had already been enfeoffed as a marquis and appointed as a minister, achieving the dream that countless people aspired to.

"Good heavens, is this an imperial decree?"

"Truly amazing."

"From now on, I'm the marquis's brother, the Champion Marquis's brother!"

Looking at the golden imperial decree in his hand, Sun Kai's eyes held a hint of excitement.

His brother had become a marquis!

It was at this moment that Sun Kai realized how correct his initial investment had been; now, he could walk sideways throughout the entire empire without any problems.

"I'm going to the Imperial Capital during this time, so I won't be able to help you level up. You'll have to figure something out yourself."

Su Bai still wanted to complete his mission as soon as possible.

He had offended a Demon God, so he had to raise his level quickly.

Currently, it seemed that the Demon God couldn't yet set foot in this world, but if that guy suddenly visited one day, he needed to have the ability to resist.

"Don't worry, I've been leveling with Ye Ling'er and her teammates recently. It won't take long for me to level up."

Sun Kai quickly said upon hearing this.

He knew his place; he couldn't always rely on Su Bai to carry him.

"Alright then, if you need anything, just tell me."

Su Bai patted Sun Kai's shoulder, then turned and returned to his room.

Next was to improve the Blood Elf's tier, which was the top priority.

This little guy had extraordinary effects and could truly save his life at critical moments.

He even hid blood drops all around the villa, and even 500 meters underground, he dug out a small area specifically for storing blood drops.

"Little guy, you must give me a surprise!"

Su Bai entered his Beast Taming Space, playing with the little guy in his hand, a faint smile on his face.

[Current Status: Can Advance]

"You little guy, you're really pitifully weak."

Su Bai couldn't help but gasp when he saw the LV120 Blood Elf's attributes.

The attributes this little guy gained per level weren't much different from his own.

A dignified King Tier Beast, gaining only five attribute points per level, was truly pitiful.

As Su Bai's words fell, the little guy immediately nodded, a hopeful look in its eyes.

"Quickly swallow all these materials and see what level you can advance to."

Su Bai piled all the materials in front of the Blood Elf and said softly.

The little guy nodded, and a vast blood sea appeared beneath its feet, swallowing all the materials.

The little guy let out a painful shriek, then fell into the blood sea.

That expanse of blood sea began to surge, attempting to stir up monstrous waves.

Unfortunately, the Beast Taming Space restrained the blood sea's expansion, preventing it from spreading in all directions.

As time gradually passed, the little guy slowly floated out of the blood sea.

Its body had grown much stronger, already the size of Su Bai's arm.

Without thinking, Su Bai opened the Blood Elf's attribute panel.

[Current Status: Can Advance]

"Indeed, it still has to be you!"

"Reaching the Demigod Tier, these attribute values are simply pitifully weak. You can only be a good little baby."

Su Bai stroked the little guy's head, a hint of emotion in his eyes.

With an overall combat power of 6500, even if he wielded a staff, he could deal more damage than the Blood Elf.

[Skill: Blood Sea Defense]

[Skill Description: Blood Sea Defense, as long as the blood sea does not dry up, the defense will not break. Your self-defense attributes are linked to the blood sea; as long as the blood sea is not instantly evaporated, you will be in an immortal state.]

[Skill: Soul Link]

[Skill Description: You can resonate with the blood sea on a soul level, merging a portion of your consciousness into the blood sea to create countless versions of yourself.]

"These two skills seem quite interesting!"

Su Bai stroked his chin, thinking seriously.

However, it currently seemed that this little guy could still advance, but he didn't know when the materials would be gathered.

After leaving the Beast Taming Space, Su Bai sought out Grandpa Sun and proposed the idea of going to the Imperial Capital.

Of course, he also conveniently got a bottle of fresh blood for Grandpa Sun to keep.

After all, he was a Nine Revolutions expert; protecting his fresh blood should be no problem.

"The teleportation array is ready now. You can depart whenever you wish. You are now a high and mighty marquis of the empire; even this Old Man must bow to you."

Grandpa Sun shook the paper fan in his hand and teased.

"How could I let that happen? Forcing you, Old Man, to bow to me would be an insult to a junior!"

"Of course, if you insist on bowing, I'd be more than happy to accept."

Su Bai smiled slightly and said softly.

"Get out of here, don't let me see you again. You're simply toxic."

"Go complete your class transfer."

Grandpa Sun waved his hand, and a gust of Raging Wind swept Su Bai, sending him above the City Lord's Mansion.

Before Su Bai could react, he fell from the sky and landed on the ground with a heavy thud.

"Old Man, just you wait until I can beat you. I'll beat you every day, you rotten Old Man."

Su Bai picked himself up from the ground, dusted off his clothes, and strode into the City Lord's Mansion.
