Chapter 409 Annual Evaluation, Orange Level Characteristics! (2-in-1)
"Which general is it?" Su Gongming asked with an unhappy expression.
"Brother!" Su Fengye still didn't want to say more.
"I am both your brother and the head of the Su family! Due to emotions and reasons, shouldn't I intervene?" Su Gongming took a step forward and said with great momentum.
Su Fengye sighed and said directly: "Even without the Earth Core Fire Milk, I will definitely be able to step into the realm of Grandmaster within two years. This is my promise to my family."
Su Gongming narrowed his eyes and said in a cold tone: "Is it possible that this matter has something to do with that demon girl?!"
When Su Fengye heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he immediately said: "Yan Xue and I have not seen each other for many years, and this matter has nothing to do with her."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
In the room, the atmosphere became increasingly dull.
After Su Gongming was silent for a few moments, he suddenly asked again: "Put aside the matter of the Earth's Fire Milk for now, who was the woman you protected that day in full view of everyone?!"
Su Fengye's heart suddenly tightened.
Originally, he thought that after such a long time, no one in the family mentioned this matter, he should be able to feel relieved a little.
But he never thought that his brother would suddenly attack today.
"I saw that Master Qianyuan was in danger, so I rushed to help. As for the woman, I just took advantage of the situation and saved her."
Su Fengye had already prepared a plan in his mind and calmly explained it.
Regarding Su Qingqing's matter, Song Changming had warned him first, and he would never tell the truth.
When Su Gongming heard this, he looked deeply at his brother again, and it took him a long time to withdraw his sharp eyes.
"Feng Ye, I hope you remember that you have married Xinyue as your wife. Don't let her down again. Explain this matter carefully when you go back and don't let her misunderstand."
"I will," Su Fengye lowered his eyelids and nodded.
Su Gongming stopped asking questions and watched Su Fengye leave. The look on his face that had just softened became cold again.
He had watched Su Fengye grow up since he was a child, and he knew Su Fengye better than anyone else.
"Go find out who that woman is."
In the third city area, Xiao Huang kept circling around Song Changming, chirping non-stop.
With the end of an obsidian period, Xiao Huang has changed a lot in more than half a year.
In the past, it was only a little bigger than a palm, but it grew to the size of an ordinary falcon in half a year. This was much faster than its growth in the past many years.
It is not difficult to guess that all these changes were brought about by the obsidian in the sky, which helped Xiao Huang accelerate his growth.
This growth is not only reflected in Xiao Huang's body shape, but also in his spiritual intelligence.
He became smarter. Although he still couldn't speak human words, he learned the human language and could use his paws to communicate with the people in Song's house.
Obsidian can make the bloodline of monster beasts active. This is something Song Changming knew before.
But if the bloodline can evolve and grow so violently, the only one he has seen is Xiao Huang.
At the moment, what Xiao Huang wants from Song Changming is nothing more than the flesh and blood of the great demon that he obtained.
It was difficult for this little thing to be interested in ordinary things. Only the flesh and blood of the big demon made Xiao Huang particularly eager.
Song Changming turned his palm and took out a ball of demon blood, which was enveloped by Gang Qi and floated above the palm of his hand.
He has never been so stingy with his 'own people'.
The people here also include the pet beasts he raises. Although the blood of the great demon is precious to him, it doesn't matter if he gives it away in small quantities.
When Xiao Huang saw this, he flapped his wings happily, opened his mouth, and all the big demon blood entered his belly.
Satisfied, Xiao Huang sat down on the stone table in the courtyard, squinting his eyes as big as red beans, and digesting the fierce demonic power in silence and contentment.
Song Changming also sat at the stone table and stretched out his hand to tease the little chicken that had grown bigger.
I have to say that the little yellow chicken feels quite good when 'playing' with it. Of course, it would be better if the little yellow chicken doesn't need to peck him with its sharp beak.
Su Qingqing was pouring wine for Song Changming on the side, doing the same job as a maid beside Song Changming in the past. This has not changed because of joining the army.
For some reason, being with Song Changming made her feel calm and peaceful.
What she likes most is this peace.
The weather in June has long since lost the chill of the obsidian period. It is extremely hot during the day and only feels a little comfortable coolness at night.
"Have anyone from the Su family been here these days?" Song Changming asked.
"No." Su Qingqing shook her head.
Not only the Su family members, but also Su Fengye did not dare to visit again these days.
Song Changming nodded, maybe Su Fengye had taken care of the potential trouble, and it would be fine if nothing happened.
"Sir, I learned the piano from my mother, do you want to listen?" Su Qingqing obviously didn't want to say anything more on the topic of the Su family, so she couldn't help but change the subject and asked.
"Okay, I'm all ears." Song Changming smiled.
Su Qingqing was obviously prepared. She ran into the room happily and took out the guqin to play music for Song Changming.
Song Changming didn't study much about music, but he could tell that Su Qingqing's piano skills were quite good.
To be able to achieve such attainments after studying piano for several years can be regarded as an excellent talent.
“Sounds good.”
Song Changming drank wine and listened to music, waiting for midnight to arrive.
Suddenly, Song Changming had a thought in his mind and opened his personal panel.
[Today’s evaluation: A meaningful day, life span +1, and limited-time status ‘God rewards those who work hard’]
There are two pieces of panel information refreshed.
This first item is a daily evaluation update. Song Changming is accustomed to it and skips it directly.
His eyes fell on the second refreshed content.
The content is very long and lists many things. It is his annual evaluation of the past year.
[Annual evaluation: Success and fame! 】
[Cultivation Achievements: This year, your martial arts cultivation has made successive breakthroughs, and you have opened up the sixth and seventh martial arts veins! Master the first-grade Red Cloud Sword Technique created by Emperor Yun, refine the blood and flesh of the great demon, refine the body to approach the realm of a master, refine the shaman weapon seal "Ju" and "You", obtain the golden thunder seed, the second level of Talisman Dao, and refine elixirs. First level.】
[Achievements: This year, you defended the border, destroyed alien races, killed more than ten thousand monsters, killed big monsters, achieved great military exploits, and became famous far and wide.]
[In terms of power and fame: This year, you took up the position of commander-in-chief, held military power, backed by the royal palace, and had a prominent status]
[Family aspect: There are few people and no successors]
[Event: 1, Calamity: The devil swallows the sun! 2. Power: Competition for the leadership position! 】
[Please select an annual award. 】
【1, Lifespan +12000】
[2. Lifespan -8000, obtain the related orange physique ‘Thunder Eater’. 】【3, Lifespan -3000, can upgrade one related physique (alchemist (green), meditator (green))】
[4. Lifespan -3000, can be upgraded to a martial arts learned]
[5. Lifespan -3000, improve inner Qi cultivation. 】
[6, consumption life -800, attribute points +8]
[Note: Based on the evaluation results, four of the six items can be selected as rewards. 】
Song Changming looked through the summary of this year and found that almost every item contained a lot of content, which proved that Song Changming was very active and did a lot of things this year.
His cultivation strength has improved significantly, especially the continuous opening of two martial arts veins and the successful sacrifice of the witch seal, which also made his strength a big leap forward!
In addition, small gains in Talismanism and Alchemy were also recorded as one of his series of positive comments.
In terms of his subsequent performance, thanks to the invasion of the demon clan, a major event that harmed the human race, he was like a god of death. Even he himself had not estimated it. It turned out that in this year, he had killed many people one after another. Thousands of monsters!
Among them, he killed a big demon, which made his score reach full.
Even though the big demon was seriously injured at the time, a kill was a kill. This achievement was quite dazzling.
In terms of power later on, his assumption of the position of commander-in-chief was undoubtedly a highly rated achievement.
In the world of Cuibai Dao, in the eyes of others, he is already considered a high-ranking and prestigious boss-level figure!
When his eyes fell on the annual awards, it was as expected.
The annual rewards are considerable.
There are six items in total, and Song Changming is free to choose four of them as the final reward for his performance this year.
Glancing at the six rewards, his attention quickly focused on one of them.
"Orange physique!"
The word orange shocked Song Changming.
This is also the first time that orange-level rewards appear in the annual rewards!
Opening his personal panel, there are a lot of blue-level related physiques, but there is only one orange-level characteristic.
That is his dragon immortal body (orange)!
And the way to obtain this orange-level physique was not through his annual award.
But in reality, he first swallowed a Dragon Transformation Pearl, and then absorbed the essence of a whole dragon's flesh and blood, and then tempered it to form this dragon's immortal body.
For this reason, he also experienced the price of being refined to death by that old white man!
Although he was reborn after Nirvana, it also consumed a full thirty-six thousand lifespan.
In general, his only orange-level physical characteristic was obtained by various chances and coincidences in reality, and the method cannot be copied.
Right now, this orange physical trait is given as an annual reward.
The price is clearly marked, and you only need eight thousand lifespans to own it.
This is nothing compared to the price he paid for obtaining the dragon's immortal body!
And this method of acquisition can be copied.
Just give him a big stage and be active in it.
Or if you do some earth-shattering things, you will have the opportunity to get such an annual reward again!
But now, he must choose this orange-level reward.
After quickly making up his mind, Song Changming continued to weigh several other rewards.
Four of the six options are available as rewards, so this time he has a lot of room for choice, which saves him from getting too entangled and regretful.
After Su Qingqing's piano music ended, Song Changming basically made a decision.
"1, 2, 3, 5."
In order to avoid excessive consumption of his original lifespan reserve, the first lifespan reward must also be selected.
In addition to the second orange physical characteristic, the third upgrade characteristic reward is also within his choice.
These physical characteristics often represent one or more talents, so improving one's talents in various aspects can also help make him more comprehensive in the future.
Although this sounds a bit arrogant, what he wants is to be omnipotent in the future!
It's just a pity that this kind of physical characteristics, as in the past, can only be upgraded to the blue level at most, and the higher orange level still cannot be upgraded.
Song Changming has two guesses about this.
Either the annual evaluation is not high enough and the reward for upgrading the orange-level characteristics was not triggered.
Either these physical characteristics have no potential for subsequent upgrades after being upgraded to the blue level, and they cannot be upgraded.
Song Changming prefers the latter.
After all, in this reward, he can directly obtain an orange-level physical characteristic. Logically speaking, his annual evaluation is the standard for obtaining an orange-level reward.
Perhaps there is a huge gap between the blue level and the orange level, making it difficult to obtain the corresponding orange level characteristics through upgrading.
Of course, this is all just speculation.
There may also be a reward option for upgrading orange-level physical characteristics in the future.
As for the last reward, Song Changming chose to improve his internal energy cultivation and gave up the opportunity to advance in martial arts.
The reason for this is also because this martial arts upgrade has the same limitations as the characteristic upgrade.
At most, he could upgrade his second-grade Thunder Fire Sword Technique to the first-grade level, but he could not further improve his original first-grade Red Cloud Sword Technique.
This is inevitably a bit useless. After all, he already has a first-grade sword technique, which was created by Emperor Yun. He is still far from perfecting it.
In this case, even if he obtains another first-grade sword art, his strength will be limited.
It would be better to directly improve his inner energy cultivation level to avoid further increasing his body refining progress.
After making up his mind, Song Changming no longer hesitated and took the first step to receive the lifespan reward.
In this way, his original life span of 51,000 suddenly increased to 63,000.
If converted into years, his remaining life span at this moment is as high as 172 years.
And after tonight, he is now seventy-one years old.
The average lifespan of an ordinary innate warrior is only two hundred years.
His total life span has already surpassed most of the innate warriors.
In fact, if he hadn't been consuming the lifespan he had accumulated every year in exchange for rewards, the total lifespan he had accumulated at this moment would probably be much longer than that of all the masters!
You must know that he died once during this period, which cost him a hundred years of life
With more than 60,000 lifespans approaching, Song Changming felt quite confident, but he did not choose to continue to receive the remaining rewards.
"Young Master?" Su Qingqing looked confused when she saw Song Changming getting up.
He had already stopped playing the piano when he saw Song Changming's thoughtful expression just now.
"Let's go here today. I have important things to do and I have to retreat. The time is uncertain."
Song Changming first praised Su Qingqing's piano skills, then made an explanation, left the house, went directly to the station outside the city, and chose to retreat outside the city.
There is a retreat for him in the Nineteenth Army's garrison, and he will not be disturbed by anyone.
Don't worry too much about making too much noise and disturbing some powerful people in the city.
"The name is 'Thunder Eater'. I don't know how this orange characteristic can help me!" Song Changming thought to himself.
