My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 533: Chapter 340: Transit Region and Promotion Trials (4K)_3

"For example, a Monster Overlord following the Tianqi Eternal Life path usually possesses abilities like 'Eye of Mutation,' 'Mutation Spell,' and sometimes they can even cause a terrible tide of blood and flesh through sacrifice,"

These methods naturally don't have obvious weaknesses, but with prior preparation, one can take specific defensive measures.

If he were to engage in all-out war with Fang of the Jackal Wolf, preparation would be indispensable.

He massaged his throbbing temples.

The pressures between people are not the same; the majority of Lords within the Secret Realm were feeling relaxed. Now that the Red Fog Disaster Moon had ended and Lanxing had finished merging, they were no longer under pressure.

However, the Lords were not slacking off or relaxing.

Without warfare, it was the most opportune time to enhance their strength: most Lords were training new and old generals and expanding their military contingents.

Or constructing buildings and upgrading their territories.

"I actually failed the Level Five Territory Upgrade Challenge! Even though I had as many as ten Third-order Warlord level champions!"

A tall and muscular Lord complained.

In the distance, Lord Shen Mao, also a member of this Secret Realm, shook her head slightly. "Success in the upgrade challenge isn't guaranteed by sheer strength alone, not to mention..."

Just ten ordinary War Generals are far from being considered powerful.

She had recently passed the upgrade challenge herself. And during her attempt, she had sent several elite figures from the Four-order level.

The other Lords from her batch in Dragon Court were only Kong Ming as a City Lord back then, but now, everyone had passed the trial and was promoted to City level. Oh, of course, except Lord Tianyuan, he was not part of the norm.

Seeing that quite a few Lords were curious about the upgrade challenge, she thought for a moment and said:

"The upgrade challenge is similar to the Hero Trial, but it has a much lower pass rate compared to the latter. Most Level Four Lords can't get through this trial."

"Of course, all of you are exceptional Lords, and there is a great hope for you to pass the trial in the future. But if there's still room for improvement in your territories, then I suggest you all wait a bit longer and accumulate more strength before attempting the upgrade challenge."

"After all, like the Hero Trial and Lord Trial, the world rules will grant different levels of rewards based on personal performance. Besides the basic upgrade rewards, if you have the chance, you should certainly strive for higher-level rewards."

"I myself delayed for a while, waiting until my power had accumulated to a very substantial level before attempting the upgrade."

"Uh, of course, there's no need to be as cautious as me. It's all about personal judgement."

Like her strongest general, who was not far from ranking on the Dragon Court leaderboard.

Taking such a force into an upgrade challenge, she was being overly cautious; she was almost invincible in the challenge scenarios.

Who else taking on the upgrade challenge could boast so many generals, as elite as a rainstorm!

She suddenly caught sight of the low-key yet noticeable young man from Tianyuan sitting not far away.

Back during the Dragon Court competition, Tianyuan had outshone everyone.

Once Tianyuan meets the conditions to initiate the trial, he might already... already have super champions ranked high on the Dragon Court leaderboard, right?

Going into a trial with an invincible Four-order champion, just thinking about it is quite extravagant.

Mu Yuan also wanted to hurry up and initiate the trial.

As long as the trial is passed and the territory is upgraded, warriors like Lu Liu could receive a baptism and be promoted to Fourth-order Peak in a short time.

That would save a significant amount of time on the path to legendary strength.

However...

'Level Five Territory Upgrade Requirements:'

'????: Omitted (Already Met)'

'?: Population must be greater than or equal to 30,000 people, including over 300 individuals with special skills. (15366/30000)'

'?: Upon meeting the above conditions, the Lord may spend 500 Soul Crystals to initiate the 'Upgrade Trial.' Note that an additional 500 units of Soul Crystals is required upon passing the trial, and if the trial is failed, the initial cost is not refunded.'

Building, public sentiment, military strength, safety index, and other conditions had long been met by Tianyuan Territory.

But the one thing...

It was stuck on population numbers.

It was not just a bit short for Tianyuan Territory; it was way, way short!

"Is there any way to accelerate this process?"
