Chapter 1476: Announcement & Change
Ira saw Tang Shaoyang was one of the people who got into trouble, "You just came a few hours ago, and you already caused trouble, you brat!" She raised her voice.
But then Tang Shaoyang glanced at her, and her heart skipped a beat when she met with his eyes. He gave her a glance before going upstairs, ignoring her.
"That's some scary glare..." She muttered in a low voice.
Castor left the building. Despite the conflict, he still left the building with a smile. As if the confrontation did not disturb him, at all. Meanwhile, the two men who confronted Tang Shaoyang left the building livid. They walked past Ira without saying anything.

Tang Shaoyang returned to his room in a bad mood. He tried his best to hold back, but he ended up snapping back at the man. He just did not have the patience to face that kind of person.
Not long after he returned to his room, the waitress delivered his food. It was a new serving set. The dragon steak was still sizzling, the dragon tail soup was steaming, and two bowls of rice. Despite how tantalizing the food looked, he just did not have the appetite anymore. But of course, he still finished his food. He just could not enjoy it as much as before.
After finishing his food, he hopped on the bed. Checking the timer until the trial started which was two days and five hours. He was thinking about what he should do at that time. Between the available services in this city. The Arena was the most interesting one.
Tang Shaoyang looked out the window, noticing something weird. It was the light from outside. He had been here for around ten hours, and it was still the same outside. There was no sign that it would get dark anytime. He just realized it when he hopped on the bed and thought of sleeping. He thought it was still afternoon, but he quickly realized nothing had changed since he arrived.
Hopping down from the bed, he walked to the window. He looked at the sky. The sky was bright with clouds, but he could not find the sun. He could not find the source of the light from the sky. It was as if the sun did not exist in this world.
He pulled the curtain to close the window and decided to sleep. The best way to quickly pass the time was sleeping. That was also the best way to relieve him from his bad mood from the earlier situation.
It took him some time to really fall asleep. He was not tired or sleepy, at all. It took him half an hour before he could really sleep. When he woke up, the first thing he did was check the timer again. It was one day and twenty-two hours until the trial.
He felt like these two days were very long, "Can't we just start the trial already?" There was nothing for him to do. There was no training ground for him to try his new skills, "Let's check the Alchemist shop. Maybe I will buy some recipes."
Tang Shaoyang just remembered about the alchemy recipes. He was fixated on the item, so he forgot to check the alchemy shop.
'Or maybe I can visit the shop in front of Cladeos' shop. Maybe I can get one Primordial or maybe Legend Rank item with my GC.'
His head was filled with what he should do to kill time until the trial. He went out of his room. As he arrived on the first floor, he received an interesting announcement.
———————————————
[Announcement and Change In Trial]
1. The number of participants is doubled, up to 2000 participants
2. More time for Calamity Hunting, 45 days from 30 days.
3. We will hold a tournament for the participants in the Arena. Only the top three will be rewarded. [Prize]
4. The point list for Calamity. [List]
———————————————
Tang Shaoyang read the announcement as he headed to the counter and ordered a light meal. The first thing he checked was the list for Calamity's point. He tapped the attachment and the list appeared.
———————————————
Calamity Hunting Point:
Rank 1: 2 Points
Rank 2: 10 Points
Rank 3: 30 Points
Rank 4: 100 Points
Rank 5: 250 Points
Rank 6: 600 Points
Rank 7: 1500 Points
Rank 8: 5000 Points
Rank 9: 18000 Points
Unique Rank: 100000 points
———————————————
Rank 1 Calamity was only worth 2 points even though it was the most sought-after material. The gap between Rank 1 and Rank 2 was big as well as Rank 3 Calamity. He could understand why the high-rank Calamity was worth hunting for even if they made a party.
From the list, there was one rank that Ira did not mention to him, Unique Rank. He felt like he would come first if he could kill one Unique Rank. That would guarantee him to the next stage. But of course, he was not that conceited to hunt The Unique Rank by himself.
Despite the big gap between each rank, he did not change his plan. He would start his hunt with Rank 1 Calamity and slowly went up in rank. With additional time, he felt like he could take it slow.
'I wonder what rank the massive Kraken we fought in Aqura was?' He remembered his first experience with his first Calamity. The massive Kraken that filled the sky.
'That thing is at least rank 7 Calamity, no? That thing is stronger than our dog.' Afi took his chance to tease Doombringer. However, this time, the dog did not bite back. As if Doombringer accepted the fact that the Kraken Calamity was stronger than him. That was a rare moment for Doombringer to stay silent and take the hit.
From all the announcements, this list was the most important in Tang Shaoyang's eyes. He was not interested in the other three. The additional participants did not really matter to him. The additional time was good because he had more time to hunt Calamity to exchange with the items.
As for the tournament, he did not show any interest in that. The tournament was stupid because he might reveal what he was capable of. He might become a target during the Calamity Hunting. That would be annoying, but he still checked the prize.
———————————————
1st Prize: Divine Dragon Bloodline, A set of Legend Rank equipment, and 5 billion GC
2nd Prize: Dragon Bloodline, A set of Primordial Rank equipment, and 1 Billion GC.
3rd Prize: A set of Primordial Rank equipment, and 300 million GC.
———————————————
'I think there's more benefit in participating than not, Your Majesty. It's Divine Dragon Bloodline. You can give it to one of your skeletons or maybe one of my undead!' Vandir was the first one to suggest participating in the tournament.
