Chapter 868: Chapter 435: Prince Class Demon Hunting Team

"Greetings, Hall Master," Long Dangdang said respectfully with a Knight’s salute.

This was not the main hall of the Sacred Legate; it was the place where the Hall Master cultivated. Thus, the room contained only Long Dangdang and the Hall Master.

Looking at Long Dangdang standing before him, apparently unchanged from before, the Hall Master sighed, "Although it’s pitiable, you have disappointed me, you know."

Long Dangdang remained silent; he understood what the Hall Master meant. As the champion of the Great Impartation Contest, he was to be trained as the next Hall Master, although that might take a long time. He was undoubtedly the most likely successor to the next generation’s Hall Master.

However, he had recklessly ventured into the Wraith Kingdom, putting himself in danger. From the perspective of the Temple’s upper echelons, it was undoubtedly a disregard of the greater good over personal matters, especially when the Federation was fully warring with the Wraith Kingdom.

"Your divine seal has gone. After consultation within the Temple, the two divine vessels you would have been awarded as the champion of the Great Impartation Contest will not be given to you," the Hall Master said gravely.

Long Dangdang nodded, "I understand. I will strive to earn them back with my effort."

Hearing this, the Hall Master’s expression eased slightly, nodding, he said, "You are stronger than I imagined. Although the divine vessels will not be rewarded to you, the information you brought back is very important. The Demon Hunters Headquarters will grant you additional rewards. Also, the punishment decided by the Temple Headquarters is to confine you. You are not to leave the Temple Headquarters until you advance to an 8th Rank paladin. Only when you reach the 8th Rank can the confinement be lifted. I hope you use this time to quiet your mind. You have ventured into the Wraith Kingdom once and should understand better what should not be done. Settle down, and improve yourself. With your talent, I believe you can advance to the 8th Rank within a year at most. Don’t worry about the frontlines; the Federation will fight the Wraith Kingdom with all its might, striving to eliminate their living forces as much as possible. As long as your parents and brother are alive, they have a chance to be rescued. Thus, it is all the more important for you to stay alive, as having you in restraint, they could be safer."

"Yes," Long Dangdang agreed. Having been ordered to return to the Holy City, he had already guessed such an outcome. Otherwise, he would have been allowed to join the battle at the frontlines directly.

Staying confined until reaching the 8th Rank was, in a way, a good thing. Nothing was more important than improving one’s strength.

As for his parents’ and brother’s safety, he wasn’t too worried. Considering the strength of the Wraith Kingdom, even if the Federation desired their annihilation, it would not be accomplished in a short time.

In these days, he had also clarified his thoughts, or rather, placed all his hopes on something—as it might be the only chance. The Eternity and Creation God’s Seal Cathedra Rex! Only by obtaining this most powerful divine seal could he possibly resolve the issue. And to gain the recognition of this divine seal, the 9th Rank was the basic requirement.

The Hall Master stepped forward to Long Dangdang, "I know the importance of family. However, by participating and winning the Great Impartation Contest, you have taken up the mission to carry forward the legacy of the Temple. Hence, no matter the difficulties, you must remain strong."

"Yes, Hall Master."

Being stripped of the divine vessels was also something Long Dangdang had anticipated. For the Federation, every divine vessel is a strategic asset. Especially under the current circumstances of a formidable enemy, they cannot be distributed carelessly.

In the eyes of the Sacred Legate, although the young generation has amply demonstrated their talents through the Great Impartation Contest, talent is just talent, distinct from truly growing into a powerful figure.

Among his generation of potent young figures, Ling Menglu and Zisang Liuying now both wielded divine vessels. Yet, as the champion, Long Dangdang did not. This was already a significant punishment. Even his potential to succeed as the next Hall Master or even become a Hall Master was in doubt due to his unilateral action of venturing into the Wraith Kingdom.

To resolve these doubts was not an overnight endeavor. After all, there are still many excellent talents of his level, and he is not indispensable.

The only relief was the score rewards given by the Demon Hunters Headquarters. Demon Hunter Team 19115897 skipped the Commander Class and was granted the eligibility for the Prince Class demon hunting team, along with an additional reward of five million scores that could be used to make exchanges at the Demon Hunters Headquarters.

From low to high, demon hunting teams are classified as Soldier Class, General Class, Commander Class, Prince Class, Emperor Class, and Title Class.

As a Prince Class demon hunting team, they are already considered mid to high-level. Teams like those of Zisang Liuying were also Prince Class, but surely did not have that many scores. A million scores could typically get an Epic Class equipment; five million could get a Legendary Class equipment; ten million scores could even get an Eternal Class demi-god equipment, provided there is inventory available.

To advance from Prince Class to Emperor Class demon hunting team wasn’t as simple as garnering points; it required completing specific missions and meeting strength level requirements. The 8th Rank was the threshold for the Emperor Class team. Full 9th Rank was the entry ticket for the Title Class team. Of course, even if a team was all 9th Rank, many were still at the Emperor Class level. To become a Title Class team, genuine completion of very important missions for the Federation or the Temple was necessary.
