Behind Xia Qiming, the introductory information for ten dungeons was projected. For the ultra-tier dungeons, the World Will had directly provided the names and some basic information.
It seemed that from this massive Great Dungeon Clearing Campaign, the World Will had benefited significantly and should have grown to a new stage.
These ten ultra-tier dungeons were 【Flood of the Flood Dragon】, 【Titanfall】, 【Os Empire】, 【Island in the Sky】, 【Continent of Wild Beasts】, 【Peak of Kunlun】, 【Descent of the Calamity Star】, 【Strange Garden】, 【Goblin Stronghold】, and 【Ascension Assembly】.
The ten dungeons had already undergone an initial classification and were divided into three categories based on their background environments.
The first category was Daxia Mythology, which included 【Flood of the Flood Dragon】, 【Peak of Kunlun】, and 【Ascension Assembly】.
The second category was Western Fantasy, including 【Titanfall】, 【Island in the Sky】, 【Os Empire】, and 【Goblin Stronghold】.
The third category consisted of the remaining ones that were not easily defined; the remaining three dungeons fell into this type.
Xia Qiming enlarged the first category of ultra-tier dungeons while temporarily hiding the other two.
"Based on the characteristic that rewards are strongly related to the background of Daxia Mythology dungeons, the mythic-tier advancement items dropped from these should be compatible with Daxia's specialized classes, the Martial Artist and cultivators."
"Among them, the Peak of Kunlun is a martial arts competition, while the Ascension Assembly is a grand gathering for cultivators. The outputs of these two dungeons should correspond to Martial Artists and cultivators respectively."
Chen Xu looked at the introductory information for these two dungeons.
【Peak of Kunlun: In the north, there is a strange stone atop the Peak of Kunlun. The strange stone transmits ten thousand laws, and the martial way begins from heaven. Legend has it that the strange stone of Kunlun contains all the laws of the world. Throughout history, many talented individuals have gained insights into techniques from this stone and spread them across the world, causing the martial way to flourish ever since.
Later generations respected the Peak of Kunlun as a martial arts holy land. Every ten years, a martial arts assembly is held here to determine the Champion below the God of War. The Champion will have exclusive access to the strange stone for ten days, gaining insights into techniques to teach the world, becoming a teacher to all!】
【Ascension Assembly: Cultivators refine the essence of heaven and earth, forge a foundation close to the Dao, and comprehend the laws of the world, yet they act against heaven and refuse to be one with it. Therefore, heaven and earth do not love them, often striking them with lightning punishment.
In ancient times, there were great experts who were unruly and famous for defying heaven. They laid down the Great Array of Ascension, which could deceive heaven and allow cultivators to avoid lightning tribulations. Although this array is strong, the heavenly majesty is even greater, and the immortal tribulation cannot be avoided. Every sixty years, the number of those who can transcend the lightning tribulation is limited to a handful. The orthodox lineages of the world have agreed upon the Ascension Assembly to determine the talents who will undergo the tribulation!】
Looking at the descriptions, these two dungeons should both be of the assimilation-type. The method to clear them should be to participate in the martial arts assembly and the Ascension Assembly within the dungeon. As for what rank one must achieve to be considered successful, there was no explicit statement.
However, based on experience, one usually had to take the top spot.
"There are thirty epic-tier Martial Artists in Daxia. As for cultivators, if the restrictions are not strict and classes like Feng Shui mystics are counted, there are four."
Xia Qiming switched to a split screen and pushed up the information of more than a dozen personnel he had mentioned.
Chen Xu glanced at it. On the Martial Artist side, he only knew Xiang Longwu and Han Zhuting. On the cultivation side, he recognized many: Ye Bufan, Wu Xiuyuan, and Zhuge Xuanqi. As for the last one, it was actually a woman. Chen Xu looked around but could not find her.
"Regarding the cultivators, Brother Ye's strength is beyond doubt, but Elder Wu and Senior Zhuge are not skilled in combat. Furthermore, we are unclear about the assessment format of the Ascension Assembly, so it will not be listed as our first choice."
"As for the Peak of Kunlun, we only have thirty Martial Artists. Using the scale of the Calming the Universe Assembly in the Taikun world as a reference, thirty epic-tier individuals only represent a middle-to-lower tier faction. Thus, it will not be listed as a first choice either."
After speaking, Xia Qiming operated his tablet to maximize 【Flood of the Flood Dragon】.
【Flood of the Flood Dragon: A snake becomes a python in ten years, a python becomes a hui in a hundred years, a hui becomes a flood dragon in five hundred years, and a flood dragon becomes a dragon in a thousand years. However, a dragon is a noble being of heaven and earth. If a flood dragon wishes to transform into a dragon, it must first walk the water.
Walking the water builds momentum. The greater the momentum, the greater the prestige, which relates to the rank of the dragon transformation upon entering the sea. Although dragons are noble, they are also divided into different grades. In the West Marsh, there is a great flood dragon walking the water to enter the Eastern Sea, aspiring to reach the highest grade. Wherever it passes, rivers overflow and the people are left destitute. Will you oppose the flood dragon to subdue it for the sake of the people? Or will you assist the flood dragon in its evil deeds, ambushing virtuous people to earn the merit of following a dragon?】
"There is no limit on the number of people for the Flood of the Flood Dragon, allowing Daxia's strength to be utilized to its maximum. Moreover, the process of walking the water is long, giving us ample time to respond."
"Furthermore, every part of a true dragon is a treasure. Martial Artists and cultivators can both use them, as can other classes. This maximizes our interests. It is currently our primary choice."
"Old Xia." Xiang Longwu raised his hand, interrupting Xia Qiming. "You just mentioned a true dragon. Does Daxia intend to take the path of helping the flood dragon walk the water?"
"Don't be in a hurry." Xia Qiming manipulated the tablet and brought up two more projections.
"According to the research and speculation of the academy's masters, the two paths for the Flood of the Flood Dragon correspond to two types of rewards."
"Choosing to subdue the flood dragon and rescue the common people will earn their worship. The reward type is highly likely to be faith-based or divine in nature, such as being granted some miscellaneous divine title like the Great True Lord of Dragon-Subduing and Mercy."
"Choosing to help the flood dragon might result in a gift from a true dragon. According to myths and legends, true dragons are wealthy, so the rewards should be top-tier items, materials, or equipment."
"However."
Xia Qiming paused and brought up several more projections.
"With so many years of experience in clearing dungeons, we have also learned to find different solutions. What the World Will provides is not necessarily the optimal solution. We are all adults here. Why should we choose only one?"
Under Xia Qiming's operation, two projections merged into one.
"For the Flood of the Flood Dragon, Daxia will step in to rescue the people along the banks to earn a reputation. Simultaneously, we will protect the flood dragon as it enters the Eastern Sea to become a true dragon and obtain the dragon's treasure. Finally, Daxia wants the true dragon itself."
"An ordinary flood dragon has little value to us; Daxia doesn't care for it. Only a true dragon is Daxia's goal."
Hearing this, Chen Xu extended his right hand toward Xia Qiming, spreading his five fingers before slowly closing them into a fist. "Teacher Xia, does Daxia want it all?"
Xia Qiming didn't understand what Chen Xu's gesture meant, but he still nodded.
"This is the first ultra-tier dungeon, and Daxia must obtain as many rewards as possible. One step ahead means being ahead at every step. Since ultra-tier dungeons are unlocked after the dungeon invasion is cleared, could the number of mythic-tier powerhouses be the next unlocking condition?"
After everyone finished reading the information for 【Flood of the Flood Dragon】, Xia Qiming switched back to the initial interface of the ten dungeons.
"Since Martial Artists and cultivators make up more than half of our epic-tier powerhouses, Daxia's initial target is set as 【Flood of the Flood Dragon】. As for the other dungeons, they are not currently listed as primary choices."
Xia Qiming held up three fingers. "But if any of you have other suggestions, provide them to Master Zhou of the academy within three days. In five days, the final choice will be officially decided."
