10: Chapter 10: The Blessing Ceremony! The Second Golden Legend is Born!

"I... I am willing!"

Chen Xiao blurted out almost instantly!

After witnessing Qin Yu's god-and-demon-like power and experiencing the pleasure that power brought firsthand, her desire for strength had reached its peak!

Without the slightest hesitation, she closed her eyes and completely gave up all resistance, allowing that scorching and overbearing power to surge from Qin Yu's palm into her mind!

"Very good!"

Qin Yu thought to himself.

"System! Change Chen Xiao's class!"

[Ding! Detected that the target possesses the 'Amazon Valkyrie (Golden Legend)' talent. Class change conditions met!]

[Would you like to consume 50 energy points to change Tribe member 'Chen Xiao's' class to 'Apprentice Amazon Warrior'?]

(Note: Changing to a high-quality class requires more energy.)

"Yes!"

Qin Yu confirmed without hesitation!

Energy points could be regained by killing more, but a Golden Legend-tier enforcer was worth more than gold!

Buzz—!!!

The moment he confirmed, the crimson light enveloping Chen Xiao erupted!

The light was so intense that the surrounding girls couldn't help but squint, not daring to look directly at it!

"Ah—!"

Chen Xiao let out a suppressed low growl; her voice contained both pain and an indescribable sense of relief!

An incredible scene was unfolding before everyone's eyes!

Enveloped in the red light, Chen Xiao's already tall and athletic body was undergoing a drastic transformation visible to the naked eye!

Her bones let out a series of "crackling" pops, and her height seemed to be forcibly pulled up by several centimeters, making her figure appear even more upright and slender!

Under her wheat-colored skin, her muscle lines became smoother and tighter, filled with an explosive sense of power without a hint of bulkiness. Instead, she displayed a healthy and wild beauty, like a sculpture of an ancient Greek Goddess of War!

Her hair, which had been somewhat dry due to the long trek and malnutrition, regained its luster at this moment, becoming as smooth as silk.

The most startling change was her face!

Her face, which could previously only be described as delicate, seemed to be refined by a pair of invisible hands under the baptism of the red light. Her features lost some of their youthful innocence and gained a sense of heroism and sharp brilliance. Her entire being radiated a gallant and formidable aura that commanded respect!

If the previous Chen Xiao was just an athletic girl-next-door...

...then at this moment, she was a peerless weapon of destruction that had just been unsheathed, revealing its sharp edge!

"This... how is this possible?!"

"She... she became so much more beautiful!"

“My god, that figure... it's even better than those models in the gym!"

"This isn't just a blessing; this is a complete transformation!"

The girls on the periphery broke out in bursts of uncontrollable exclamations and discussions.

Their gazes rapidly shifted from initial envy to burning, undisguised jealousy and fanaticism!

Becoming stronger!

And becoming more beautiful!

And even improving one's figure!

For this group of women, the temptation of the latter two even far exceeded the first!

At this moment, Qin Yu's 'Blessing' was no longer just a guarantee of survival in their eyes, but had become a miracle that could allow them to ascend to the heavens in a single step!

A raging fire was ignited in the heart of every girl!

I want it too!

I also want to receive the Patriarch's 'Blessing'!

Finally, the light dissipated.

Chen Xiao slowly opened her eyes.

If her eyes before held the clarity and determination of an athlete...

...then now, those eyes held only a sharp, hawk-like fighting spirit and the purest, most fanatical loyalty toward the man before her!

She could feel that her body was filled with an unprecedented, terrifying power, as if she could kill a bull with a single punch!

Countless techniques regarding combat and weapon usage were also branded into the depths of her mind like instinct!

"Pa... Patriarch..."

Chen Xiao knelt on one knee and lowered her proud head, her voice filled with excitement and awe.

"Thank you for your gift!"

"From now on, Chen Xiao's life belongs to you!"

"My blade will sweep away all enemies for you!"

[Ding! Tribe member 'Chen Xiao' has successfully changed classes!]

[Name: Chen Xiao]

[Loyalty: 95 (Die-hard)]

[Class: Apprentice Amazon Warrior (Quality: Golden Legend)]

[Strength: 15 (Average adult male is 5)]

[Agility: 18 (Average adult male is 5)]

[Constitution: 16 (Average adult male is 5)]

[Skills: Basic Battle Qi, Basic Polearm Mastery]

Seeing this attribute panel, Qin Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Not bad!

As expected of a Golden Legend talent; upon changing classes, her basic attributes directly crushed an ordinary person's by more than three times!

These 50 energy points were well spent!

He now had a super enforcer with a loyalty as high as 95!

To test the results and further stimulate the other girls, Qin Yu pointed to a large sledge not far away that was loaded with over a hundred pounds of dried snake meat and supplies, which usually required two girls just to barely drag it.

"Get up."

"Go, lift it up."

"Yes! Patriarch!"

Chen Xiao stood up abruptly without any hesitation.

She walked to the large sledge and, under everyone's skeptical gazes, took a deep breath, bent down, and grabbed the edges of the sledge with both hands.

"Heh!"

With a sharp cry, the muscles in her arms suddenly bulged, and the powerful lines instantly tightened!

The massive sledge, weighing several hundred pounds and which even two adult men might not easily lift, was actually... forcibly lifted off the ground by her!

Then, she easily hoisted the sledge onto her seemingly slender but actually explosively powerful shoulder!

“Hiss—!!!"

The sound of people gasping in cold air rose one after another!

All the girls looked at Chen Xiao as if they were looking at a monster, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit an egg!

This... what kind of terrifying monstrous strength was this!

Chen Xiao herself felt the heavy weight on her shoulder, and a look of wild joy appeared on her face.

Not only did she not find it heavy, she actually felt... at ease!

She even had the strength to take two steps in place, as steady as Mount Tai!

"Very good."

Qin Yu's voice rang out again.

"From today on, you are the Combat Captain of my Tribe, responsible for all combat and sentry matters."

"Your food ration will be three times that of the others."

Combat Captain!

Triple food rations!

These two terms were like a thunderclap exploding in the minds of all the girls!

What did this mean?

It meant status!

It meant privilege!

It meant that in this cruel world, she could live better and more comfortably than others!

On what basis?

Simply because she received the Patriarch's 'Blessing'!

In an instant, the gazes of all the girls shifted from Chen Xiao to Qin Yu.

Those looks were so burning they seemed like they would melt Qin Yu!

Jealousy was breeding wildly!

Ambition was expanding rapidly!

Finally, someone could no longer hold back.

Lin Waner, the beautiful counselor who had been silent, bit her vivid lips and was the first to step out from the crowd.

She plucked up her courage, walked in front of Qin Yu, and bowed deeply. Her proud curves appeared exceptionally alluring under the sunlight.

Her voice carried a hint of trembling and a trace of deliberately suppressed charm.

"Patriarch..."

"I... I also want to contribute my strength to the Tribe..."

"May I ask, do I... do I also have a chance to receive your blessing?"
