Chapter 1147: Brave General Horseshoe (1/2)
Pop pop pop…
A ton of items and equipment erupted from Ochil’s body and littered the floor as his HP hit zero. However, despite his failing knees, the man managed to keep his eyes open and his body upright as he cursed, ”The dignity of the War God Academy will not be violated. You may have beaten me, but you’ll never be able to defeat my teacher, boy!”
……
I sat next to Ochil’s body and examined the loot at leisure. I didn’t even activate Dark Pupils because we were inside an instance, meaning that there was no need to check for lurking assassins. Instances were dynamically-generated independent shards of reality, just for you. No one except us could enter. For example, Warsky’s party was currently fighting in a separate instance of the War God Academy right now. I wonder how they are doing.
The four girls surrounded me as I flipped the boss up and down to make sure that I didn’t miss any loot. For the first boss of the S3 instance, Ochil was quite the generous giver. He had given us 5 pieces of equipment in total: a fiery helmet, a steaming pair of wristguards with complex magical runes on them, a shield, a dagger and a pitch-black round-shaped object that I didn’t recognize.
First, I picked up the helmet smilingly. ”Who wants to bet that this is one of the equipment of the S3 set?”
I waved my hand, and the helmet’s stats appeared in the party channel. The way Lin Yixin and He Yi’s mouths parted looked incredibly sexy—

Introduction: The War God Academy is a legend of ancient times, and its president was a master martial artist renowned for his strength. After many years of cultivation, the president explored the world in search for a kind of special metal before giving it to a divine smith. That is how the Martial God set came to be. It is said that the person wearing the Martial God set will gain protection of the gods.

……
As I thought, the helmet was a part of the Martial God set. It added 35% Attack in total, and it was a 5-star Immortal-grade item. Overall, its stats were pretty good, and its Outstanding Property increased the wearer’s Attack. The obvious difference between the S2 and S3 set was that the former was focused on Defense, while the latter focused on Attack. Personally, I thought that the S3 set was the better of the two. Purely defensive equipment might make an excellent tank, but the tank themself might then lack Attack to hold the boss’s aggro, which defeats the whole purpose of stacking defensive items to be the main tank.
I moved on to reveal the wristguard’s stats. As expected, it was yet another component of the Martial God set. As 5-star Outstanding Immortal-grade metal-armor wristguards, their stats were very powerful.
I passed both items to He Yi with a smile. ”Here, Eve. I said the S3 set is yours, right?”
”Mn.” He Yi smiled and nodded in thanks.
I then said to Lin Yixin, ”When we clear the S3 instance, and you’ve all undergone your eighth class promotions, let’s grind the S4 instance together and get you the first S4 set in the entire world, Yiyi.”
Lin Yixin giggled. ”It’s a promise! And that applies to everyone here, okay? No matter what is keeping y’all, you must make time and help me grind my S4 set, okay?”
”No problem…”
……
I moved onto the shield next, but what I saw shook me to my core. Motherfucking Dark Steel–grade trash from an Ancient Immortal Rank boss!?
Shame on you, Ochil, shame on you. I tossed the shield behind me and picked up the fourth item he dropped, a fiery dagger. It was long enough to be called a shortsword instead of a dagger, and its blade was engraved with strange but elegant patterns. If I had to guess, it was probably a weapon used by the ancient nobles. I turned my wrist and brought up its stats screen in front of everyone—
Mow Fireblade (Immortal-grade, Outstanding★★★★★★)

Introduction: In ancient times, there existed a demonic flame, hidden deep within the mountains. Stumbling upon it, a hunter faced its guardian, a fierce tiger, and succeeded in killing it, but succumbed to the fire. Devouring the hunter and his dagger, the blade was refined by the demonic flames.Thousands and thousands of years later, the dagger reappeared in the world as the Mow Fireblade, a weapon imbued with powerful flames.
