52: Chapter 52 A Happy Ending! Our Destination: The Professional Unified Examination Hall!

[abyssal ring] (Exclusive) Rank: Legendary. Rank Requirement: 9. Attack +60, Strength +30, Health +10%, Critical Damage +20%. [Advanced Eternal]: The duration of buff statuses received by the user is increased by an additional 100%. Growth Progress: 0/1000 kills, 0/10000 experience (Can increase attributes by 30%). [Zhang Jian Exclusive]

Dual percentage affixes! Although it didn't increase attack power, Zhang Jian wasn't annoyed. After all, [butchers refined iron] can only be used to add to weapon crafting recipes. He was already very satisfied that the ring could have such attributes. With two pieces of Legendary-grade exclusive gear, his crafting goal for the day had been completed ahead of schedule. Whatever he crafted with the remaining two chances would just be an extra bonus. Zhang Jian's mood lightened significantly.

The nineteenth time. When identifying after crafting, the prompt for converting to exclusive gear appeared again. Zhang Jian was suddenly in a bit of a dilemma. He had already crafted enough rings suitable for his own use. Identifying another exclusive piece would be a direct waste unless it had better attributes than the current two, meaning it would just have to be dismantled. Just then, he suddenly thought of the effect of [Soul-Link Crafting] and his heart stirred. What if he crafted it and let someone else identify it?

He asked Ye Xun, who looked at him with confusion. "Of course you can." "Otherwise, do you think many damage-dealing Professionals craft their own exclusive weapons?" "Many of them find the corresponding crafting Professional, craft them one by one, and finally switch to themselves to identify them, to see if they can get an exclusive one." He was a bit puzzled. "You mean, let Wang Fei try his luck?" Zhang Jian nodded.

In his heart, however, he was thinking, I am not trying my luck. Because right after crafting the exclusive gear for himself for the eighteenth time, one of his affixes had successfully upgraded. [Soul-Link Crafting] (Epic): The probability of crafting exclusive weapons and equipment increases by 200%; if the conversion resonance is cancelled, the probability of crafting an exclusive item on the next attempt increases by 1000% (To upgrade the affix quality, he still needs: Craft 1/1000 exclusive weapons/equipment). With the help of this affix, the probability of getting an exclusive item next time after cancelling this one had been raised to an extremely high level. Next, it all depended on whether Wang Fei could handle it.

To maximize the benefits, Zhang Jian gritted his teeth and directly put in a piece of [mechanical core]. This ensured that it would definitely be crafted at Legendary quality. Wang Fei was also very sensible and immediately stated that this piece of material would be counted towards his own tab at market price. The final crafting attempt. Zhang Jian's heart was as calm as water, but Wang Fei was incredibly nervous. By the time Zhang Jian finished crafting and asked him to step forward to activate the identification, his body was shaking. "Sh-should we just forget it?" He was afraid that if he identified an exclusive item and it didn't fit his profession, it would be a waste of one of Zhang Jian's crafting attempts. Zhang Jian glared at him. "What are you afraid of!" "Be more confident, you should think that this ring is definitely a Divine Artifact!" "Alright!" Wang Fei was also infected by his emotions and shouted loudly. He placed his hand on it.

Light flowed across the forging table, and a mysterious aura appeared on him. Wang Fei opened his eyes abruptly and looked at the attributes. [abyssal ring] (Exclusive) Rank: Legendary. Rank Requirement: 9. Physical Defense +50, Spell Defense +50, Health +10%, Mana +10%. [Charged Strike]: After entering combat status, you will gain 1 point of Charge Value for every 2 minutes you do not perform any attack; every 1 point of Charge Value can release a single-target attribute damage attack of (Health + Mana) * 2, and every 5 points of Charge Value can release a group true damage attack of (Health + Mana) * 10. Growth Progress: 0/1000 kills, 0/10000 experience (Can increase attributes by 30%). [Wang Fei Exclusive]

Monstrous! This was the evaluation Zhang Jian and Ye Xun made in unison. If Wang Fei could use that previous excellence-grade item until his second promotion without needing to change it, this piece with dual percentage increases to Health and Mana was simply a Divine Artifact. Relying on its growth potential, he could keep using it forever! And the [Charged Strike] trait even gave Wang Fei a certain amount of offensive capability, which was truly icing on the cake. After reading the attributes, Wang Fei wept with joy. He fell to his knees and couldn't get up. He, too, had reached Perfection! Thank you, Heavens. Thank you, Godfather!

With this, all crafting attempts for the [abyssal ring] were used up. The recipe shattered, turning directly into a pile of useless trash. The final harvest was gratifying. Zhang Jian had two pieces of Legendary-grade exclusive gear. Wang Fei had one piece of Legendary-grade exclusive gear and one practical excellence-grade piece. Additionally, there was another top-tier Legendary piece, a Divine Artifact for Spell professions. Zhang Jian didn't care about the remaining excellence-grade ones and prepared to leave them with Ye Xun to take and sell. However, he acted mysterious and asked for that Legendary piece as well. He said that after Zhang Jian's Professional Unified Exam, he would give him a surprise.

In reality, Zhang Jian felt a surprise right then. After equipping the two exclusive pieces from earlier, he noticed the attribute bonuses were a bit off. When he checked, it turned out another affix had upgraded. [Soul-Forge Resonance] (Epic): When using exclusive weapons and equipment crafted by oneself, the increase in base attributes is boosted by an additional 200%, and the increase in special attributes is boosted by an additional 100% (To upgrade the affix quality, he still needs: Craft 2/1000 exclusive weapons/equipment). With the blessing of this affix, the boost for Zhang Jian was simply huge. The base attributes of the two rings were already powerful enough, belonging to the very top tier of accessories at the same Rank. With the additional exclusive bonus, they were far ahead of the pack. Now, with the powerful boost from the affix, Zhang Jian really wanted to ask, in this Professional Unified Exam, who else could compete with him?

Although he was impatient, under Ye Xun's insistence, he and Wang Fei still rested well for an hour in two luxury rooms arranged in the market. Only after they were physically refreshed and full of energy did Ye Xun take them to set off together. Before this, Zhang Jian and Wang Fei had speculated on what method Ye Xun would use to take them to the Professional Unified Exam venue located in the provincial capital. After all, the two places were over 1000 kilometers apart. If they took a psionic train, it would take more than two hours. Personal transportation wouldn't be much faster either. Ye Xun had timed it so Zhang Jian could craft with peace of mind, and now there was only one hour left until the unified exam. How were they going to get there quickly?

In the largest warehouse in the market, after passing the authentication of three consecutive door locks, the two finally saw Ye Xun's trump card. This was an entirely silver-white airship; its streamlined appearance looked very beautiful, and the Formation runes embedded all over its body added a sense of mystery. Ye Xun released his aura, and the semi-transparent psionic cabin doors on both sides of the airship opened automatically. Two slides instantly fell down, laying right in front of them. Ye Xun gestured with his hand. "Please." Wang Fei's eyes were filled with amazement, and drool flowed onto the floor. "My goodness, this is so damn cool!" Zhang Jian's expression wasn't much better. Just looking at the design and the level of intelligence, he knew it was expensive. He hadn't expected Ye Xun, who looked unassuming, to be so capable!

Ye Xun seemed very satisfied with their reaction, and the smile on his face became even brighter. After waiting for the two to come up and sit in the floating seats, he went to the head of the airship, where there was a huge psionic dashboard and several rotating crystal components. After Ye Xun quickly set the destination, he said with high spirits, "Depart!" In an instant, the huge roof of the warehouse quickly split from the middle to both sides, revealing the blue sky. The airship's bottom slowly jetted airflow, climbing upwards at a steady speed. Until it leaped out of the warehouse, the warehouse roof quickly returned to its position. The airship paused for a moment, then turned into a stream of light and disappeared. Watching the scenery flying by, blurring into colored streams of light, Zhang Jian and Wang Fei on the airship were both shocked and full of anticipation. Target, provincial capital. Professional Unified Exam venue, here we come!
