I passed the highest-level trial too—why did I only get one divine spear? I want that giant lizard who tested me to become my subordinate too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Jinlong’s words, Lachesis and the others turned to look at Shengzai—they clearly wanted to know what had just happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lachesis had previously doubted Shengzai’s claim that Jinlong was “picked up,” but now she had no choice but to believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While she was off taking a trial, Shengzai had just acquired a top-tier elf queen and a top-tier archangel!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(This part felt a bit clunky—I worried readers unfamiliar with the Bone King might not even grasp what I was writing, so I rushed the battle’s end and returned to the main plot.
