Based on player profession level, starting comprehensive settlement!

Comprehensive settlement complete, your final reward rating is Legend!

First Trial Challenge earned a Legend achievement, God of Ten Thousand Machines praises your contribution, you may additionally select one item from the final reward.

Zongwang Prompt messages flooded in like a sea of smoke, yet Mu Yi didn't look at them, directly closed the Zongwang Panel, and then, exhausted, lay on his own bed.

The bloated attributes and massive talents were stripped from him, he was reverted to the apprentice prototype, as if everything before had been merely an illusion.

At this moment he wants to do nothing, just lie here quietly; he is completely spent, and even a single finger he does not wish to move.

He lies there silently, drifting into dreamland until he opens his eyes again.

……

Looking at the sunset outside the window, Mu Yi felt puzzled—had he only lain for a short while?

However, the sharp sense of time brought by Time Confusion made Mu Yi realize the fact: it had been two days and one night since he finished the challenge.

Pinching the slightly throbbing spot between his brows, Mu Yi ordered some takeout; at a time like this only food can revive his weary body, and whenever, eating always soothes the heart.

After the wind‑swept remnants of the hundred‑value dinner vanished, Mu Yi finally regained a bit of spirit.

Opening the Zongwang Panel, Mu Yi began analyzing his clearance rewards.

Staring at the refreshed information on his retina, Mu Yi felt a bit emotional; although this run was tiring, it was far more exciting than grinding Dungeons for subsistence, and the myriad rewards made his eyes dazzle.

Comprehensive settlement complete, your final reward rating is Legend!

First Trial Challenge earned a Legend achievement, God of Ten Thousand Machines praises your contribution, you may additionally select one item from the final reward.

You may choose three options from the following as your final Dungeon reward:

1. Zongwang Disaster Coin Grand Gift Pack: the pack contains 100,000 Zongwang Disaster Coins

2. Certificate of Faith: the character may choose to consume the Certificate of Faith to gain a +1 level increase for any rank below Legend, or to pledge allegiance to the God of Ten Thousand Machines (after choosing faith you may look directly at the deity's name), thereby obtaining a technological divine technique.

PS: Choosing to worship the God of Ten Thousand Machines automatically joins the Technological Divine Sect, and will accept diplomatic relations between the Technological Divine Sect and other divine sects.

3. Basic Attributes: provides 2 free attribute points (effective only up to 20 points, take effect immediately, cannot be accumulated).

4. Legend Weapon Treasure Chest (Apprentice): after use, the character obtains a freely configurable Legend‑quality weapon (fixed at Level 5).

5. You receive a loyal follower (random template, random race, Level 1).

6. Fate Simulation Feedback: randomly obtain one reward that you acquired from the Infinite Trial Challenge shop.

In an instant, Mu Yi felt he had passed through Sage Time, sparking an urge to grind another wave.

These rewards can no longer be described as luxurious; for Mu Yi they are essentially an overnight fortune.

It can be said that aside from the Certificate of Faith, Mu Yi wants all the other five items.

Even the simplest item, 100,000 Zongwang Disaster Coins, is enough to accelerate Mu Yi's growth.

Although the Certificate of Faith can directly raise a rank below Legend, it is truly useless for the current Mu Yi.

Mu Yi enjoys benefits at capped levels, so he is not eager to hastily raise his panel level.

As for worshipping the God of Ten Thousand Machines and joining the Technological Divine Sect, it holds even less meaning for Mu Yi; his incense‑burning and prayers are merely for his own desires.

Faith in deities means nothing to Mu Yi, the only significance perhaps being the ability to use divine techniques, yet he hasn't even figured out his own profession, so rashly pursuing other powers is sheer nonsense.

Mu Yi automatically ignored the Certificate of Faith option, becoming conflicted among the other choices.

After hesitating for half a moment, he eliminated the Grand Gift Pack and the follower from consideration, selecting the free basic attributes, the Legend Weapon Treasure Chest, and the Fate Simulation Feedback.

Zongwang Disaster Coins are always obtainable; a single follower offers no further improvement for him.

Meanwhile, the free basic attributes and the Legend Weapon Treasure Chest are visibly beneficial options.

As for the final Fate Simulation Feedback, it was simply Mu Yi's gambler mindset kicking in, intending to bet his luck.

One should know that the most he redeems from the Trial shop are talents; any random talent is a gain, and if he happens to get a weapon talent, he can even snag a free Soul‑Trial chance, which is a huge profit.

Even a common talent is profitable; the benefits of talents are self‑evident, and without talent augmentation, combat power cannot be guaranteed.

Talents and attributes are the fundamental multipliers for boosting combat power.

Mu Yi allocated the two free attribute points to Constitution; the Simulated Universe encounter has already explained everything—strength, agility, defense, and such attributes, as long as he slaughters massively, will always stack.

However, with weak Constitution, the power from Elite Talent is ultimately external; a poor Constitution is like a child driving a big car—always lacking strength.

Zongwang Prompt: Character Constitution +2 (10→12)!

Looking at the information on his retina, Mu Yi stretched his newly reborn body.

Energy surged into his body from an unknown source, each cell being nourished and strengthened by this power.

He felt as if he now possessed inexhaustible energy, no longer the useless husk who stayed up until two o'clock with eyes that could not stay open; his body brimmed with teenage vigor, as if he could stay awake for three days and nights straight.

Mu Yi marveled at his body's transformation, a change that nothing else could compare to.
