Her assessment requirement was to construct a simple defensive array.

This was a piece of cake for the genius Xiao Xue'er; she could finish it with just a little effort.

Then she received a reward: a guide to formations and a Spirit-Boosting Pill.

The text also clearly explains the wonderful uses of the Spirit-Boosting Pill and that the levels will become increasingly difficult. It is best to digest the pill and improve your cultivation level before attempting the levels.

Xiao Xue'er had no suspicions. She didn't think that the Great Emperor would have any designs on a Golden Core cultivator like her, so she swallowed the pill directly.

A quarter of an hour later, her cultivation level improved, from the early stage of the Golden Core stage to the middle stage of the Golden Core stage.

This made Xiao Xue'er ecstatic, and she clenched her little fists.

She had always considered herself a chosen one, but recently she had been severely discouraged by Qin Feng and his group.

She was stopped at the eighteenth floor of the Tower of Pride, leaving Qin Feng and his group far behind.

In this Palace of Bliss, Xiao Xue'er rediscovered hope. As long as she kept clearing levels and earning rewards, anything was possible, and a sense of pride welled up in her heart.

Her eyes lit up as she continued forward.

Not only these disciples, but also the Nascent Soul Venerables.

Tian Zheng, the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, chose the Puppet Light Sect.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect deals with demonic beasts and has unique insights into multitasking and control. Tian Zheng is also deeply knowledgeable about puppetry.

His assessment was also relatively simple: he only needed to create a controllable puppet.

The assessment provided materials and even blueprints, which would be a piece of cake for a puppet master.

Tian Zheng finished quickly.

His reward was a book introducing puppets and a Heavenly Spirit Fruit.

He was thrilled when he saw the fruit. It was a rare fruit that could cure his old ailment and improve his physical condition. It was hard to find in Yizhou.

Without saying a word, Tian Zheng swallowed the Heavenly Spirit Fruit. As soon as it entered his mouth, he felt incredibly refreshed, and his previous distress completely disappeared.

She looks much younger, as if she's been given a second spring.

Tian Zheng laughed heartily, "The Emperor is truly magnanimous. This trip was definitely worthwhile. Now that I've accepted the reward, I'm even more excited."
