Chapter 262: Ranked first, summoned by the War King!

The moment that Grandmaster Realm beast skull appeared, a pressure even more terrifying than before permeated out again.

This time the pressure was even more terrifying than the pressure of the ten-plus Diamond Realm beast skulls Su Chen had taken out before!

Grandmaster!

A Grandmaster is the most top-tier existence below the King-Sealing Realm.

Even a newly promoted Grandmaster expert is enough to look down upon the world.

Yet, such an existence was brought back by Su Chen, who was carrying its head.

Although this was a Grandmaster whose strength was damaged while in labor.

But even so, without Diamond peak strength, even a Diamond Eight-Star expert going there would just be sending themselves to death.

That Su Chen was able to bring it back already explained a lot.

Su Chen has Diamond peak combat power!

And you have to know, Diamond peak experts are all Ten-Thousand-Man Commanders of the First Fortress!

"Could it be... this guy is about to become a Ten-Thousand-Man Commander?"

Someone said with a tremor.

"No way, the quota for Ten-Thousand-Man Commanders in the First Fortress is already saturated. Even that Thousand-Man Commander ranked first, he is also at the Diamond peak realm. But isn't he still just a Thousand-Man Commander?"

"That's true, but Su Chen's combat power is truly terrifying. I thought these A-Grade missions were just for him to show off, I didn't expect him to complete them all."

"Yeah, he is the prodigy who ranked first in the college entrance exam after all. It seems it won't be long before another Grandmaster expert is born among the humans."

One soldier after another looked at Su Chen with respectful gazes.

In the First Fortress, it's just like this.

Without enough strength to match your current position, you will receive endless ridicule.

But once your strength reaches, or exceeds it.

Then what greets you is endless respect.

First Fortress, strength speaks!

"Hey, do you think Su Chen will challenge the top three Thousand-Man Commanders this time?"

"It's a done deal; now it just depends on whether Su Chen can challenge for first place."

"First place? I'm afraid that's a bit uncertain. The one currently ranked first among the Thousand-Man Commanders has held the top spot for several years. Although he hasn't broken through to Grandmaster, his combat power won't fall behind even if he encounters a Grandmaster expert for a short time."

For a moment, the focus of everyone's discussion shifted to whether Su Chen could get first place this time.

Most people didn't think highly of Su Chen, but a small portion of people were optimistic about Su Chen's potential.

"Even if Su Chen doesn't get first place this time, I'm afraid it won't be long before that first place is definitely Su Chen's."

"Oh? Why?"

"Think about it, how old is Su Chen now?"

"Eighteen or nineteen years old, hiss!!!"

Everyone couldn't help but gasp.

Good fellow, they only just realized with surprise that Su Chen is currently just a young man of about twenty!

At such an age, he is already a Diamond Realm expert.

"Damn, what was I doing at this age? Oh, I was only Silver back then."

"Sigh, comparing people is really infuriating."

"Others are Diamond big shots at eighteen or nineteen, while we were still slacking off at eighteen or nineteen."

For a moment, everyone's gaze toward Su Chen changed again.

From the previous respect to the current submission.

The short psychological change took only a few seconds.

The old man looked at the Grandmaster Realm skull before him, his eyes shining.

"I didn't expect you to really do it. Grandmaster Realm beast skulls are not common now; I'll count this mission as five thousand military merits!"

"In total, it's about fifteen thousand military merits; I'll give it to you right away."

The old man carefully put away the Grandmaster Realm skull and then gave the fifteen thousand military merits to Su Chen.

Su Chen looked at his military merits; adding the previous ones, he now had twenty-five thousand military merits.

"Twenty-five thousand, that should be enough for me to cultivate for a while."

(acba) Su Chen gave a faint smile.

The old man, hands on the table, looked at Su Chen with a chuckle.

"Kid, do you want to do something big?"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What?"

The old man gave a hehe smile and mysteriously took out a red badge.

Su Chen's pupils shrank sharply the moment he saw that red badge.

"S-Grade mission!"

A-Grade missions can only be accepted by Ten-Thousand-Man Commanders, and S-Grade missions are naturally for those Grandmaster experts.

S-Grade missions basically involve Grandmaster Realm existences.

Even the legion commanders of the First Fortress wouldn't dare to try them easily.

Su Chen gave a bitter smile.

"Senior, I'm just scraping by with A-Grade missions; giving me an S-Grade mission is just asking me to die, isn't it?"

The light in the old man's eyes disappeared, somewhat disappointed.

"Sigh, I know S-Grade missions are very difficult, but there are ten S-Grade missions in total, and in a year, only three have been completed; I'm under pressure too!"

Su Chen smiled and didn't respond.

He just asked another question.

"By the way, how is that leaderboard calculated?"

The old man put away the S-Grade mission badge and looked at Su Chen, saying.

"It's based on accumulated military merits. If I remember correctly, you should have twenty-five thousand military merits now."

Su Chen nodded.

"Tsk tsk tsk!!"

The old man clicked his tongue a few times and then clicked a button.

Suddenly, a huge light screen appeared before them in the Mission Hall.

And on that light screen, there were various pieces of data.

Su Chen's name was also on it.
