Combat grades referred to the Growth Hunter and Awakener realms, which were extremely difficult to climb up to. Every increase in realm was a manifestation of a sudden increase in strength.
Noah Realm C's nonchalant last sentence immediately caused a huge uproar among the crowd! At this time, Sheyan could clearly feel the power of the potion slowly dissipating, and he began to slide down from the temporary combat rank of an Executor to a Temperer. The sensory tentacles that he had just skillfully controlled began to dissipate like smoke.
However, when he heard this voice, he immediately felt an indescribable power surging into his limbs and bones. Not only did the sensory tendrils that were about to dissipate become active again, but they also grew and spread crazily, trying to climb to a higher level!
Originally, Sheyan had temporarily stepped into the rank of an Executor through the power of an item, but Noah Realm C's evaluation of his strength was that of an Executor through and through. Therefore, the reward of upgrading his combat grade by one was actually based on the temporary level of an Executor.
This was not because Sheyan was lucky enough to find a bug or something, but because it was an extra reward from Noah Realm C. In terms of contribution to the destruction of Noah Realm E, Sheyan might not be the first, but he was definitely in the top three. Noah Realm C's reward of upgrading his combat grade by one was not too much.
Countless specks of starlight gathered under the will of Noah Realm C and scattered into the bodies of the surviving contestants who were wandering in space. Those who originally belonged to Noah Realm E could only watch all this happen with envious eyes.
While many people were being promoted to Executors, Sheyan fell into a hazy and dazed state. At first, he was in so much pain that he felt like he was about to burst, as if every strand of his hair could no longer contain any energy. But then, he found himself as empty as a speck of dust in the sea. Everything was empty.
This was the disadvantage of forcibly upgrading one's combat grade when one's realm was not high enough. It was almost impossible to reap without paying a price in the Realms. If you did not put in the effort and experience, you would have to go through the most painful process of enlightenment.
While he was being tortured by this crazy pain, Sheyan suddenly remembered something amidst the chaos in his mind. It was the feeling of every cell in his body being torn apart when he was facing the explosion of the bomb that Eve had turned into!
That feeling had already been blocked by Sheyan to the depths of his sea of consciousness. That indescribable intense fear made Sheyan feel insignificant. Therefore, if he could abandon a part of his memory, he would decisively throw it thousands of miles away.
But under this torture, the memory suddenly resurfaced! The terrifying and fatal feeling suddenly descended upon him. It was so domineering that all the negative emotions that had been tormenting Sheyan disappeared in an instant. It was as if when the King of Hell arrived, all demons and monsters would immediately run away as fast as they could.
Humans were resistant to everything, especially when it was just a memory. In the beginning, the human subconscious would constantly tell the body: You are safe now. What you are doing now is just a memory. Therefore, the pain caused by the repeated recollections was like a knife repeatedly chopping a chopping board. With each chop, the blade would become a little blunter until it could no longer chop anything.
After being forced to recall the memories countless times, the fear finally dropped to a level that Sheyan could endure. His mind could finally function again. When Sheyan could completely restrain the fear, he suddenly found himself infatuated with the feeling of every cell in his body disintegrating. It was as if he could transform into thousands of people and become one with the universe. It was a kind of happiness that seemed to be able to live as long as the universe itself!
After the extreme fear was slowly stripped away, what Sheyan finally comprehended from the core was happiness. Wasn't this feeling strange and wonderful?
In fact, this was how things worked in the world. If too much sugar was added, it would become bitter instead. Pain was torturous and frightening, but the pain created by a masseuse could make people indulge in it and even pay for it. Behind the extreme darkness, there would eventually be a glimmer of light. This was a world full of contradictions, but behind the contradictions, there was vitality and prosperity!
The moment Sheyan experienced that glimmer of happiness, he suddenly went limp. He felt as if all the strength in his body had been completely sucked out. However, because of this, the feeling of the continuous influx of power that almost made him explode suddenly disappeared.
Soon, he received a notification:
"You've successfully leveled up your combat grade."
[When a battle requires a higher level of power, a warrior with only executive ability is no longer enough to meet the needs of the war. On the battlefield, the opponent must be dealt with as quickly as possible! Therefore, at this time, the power to make the final decision is needed!]
[The power to arbitrate!]
[Your Awakening Skill: 'Survival Mark' has been promoted!]
"You've obtained the Survival Arbitration Skill: Mark of the Arbiter. At the cost of being unable to move or attack, the Arbiter can mark a target within a range of 300 meters, greatly enhancing the target's survivability and combat ability. In the next 10 seconds, 75% of any damage received by the target will be shared with the Arbiter, and any effects that restrict the target's movement will also be transferred to the Arbiter. At the same time, the movement speed, attack speed, casting speed and attack power of the person marked will all increase by 50% of the caster's attributes.]
[Your Offensive Awakening Skill: 'Hunter's Eyes' has been promoted!]
[You have obtained the Offensive Arbitration Skill: 'Hunter's Eyes (True)'. The prey you have targeted will have a hard time escaping. The power from your eyes will continuously act on the target's body. During this period, the enemy will not be able to use their Awakening Skill or Arbitration Skill.]
[Every time the enemy is continuously stared at for one second, one of the three attributes of the enemy's critical hit rate, hit rate and dodge rate will be temporarily reduced by 1%. This reduction will then be added to the caster for 300 seconds.]
[The initial cooldown of 'Hunter's Eyes (True)' is 10 seconds. Every time it is used, the cooldown will increase by 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 300 seconds. The cooldown of 'Hunter's Eyes (True)' will be reset every 24 hours.]
[This ability will be interrupted when the enemy is more than 100 meters away from 'Hunter's Eyes'.]

"So powerful. Is this the power of an arbitrator?" Sheyan could feel the surging power in his body. He could not help but feel an itch in his bones. He wanted to find someone to fight with. Not only that, he also found that the range of his sensory tentacles had extended to three kilometers. Although his basic attributes were not much different from an Awakener's, Sheyan knew very well that even if he were five Awakeners, he would not have the slightest chance of winning against the current Arbitrator Sheyan! The precise calculation ability of an Executor with the help of his sensory tentacles, coupled with the domineering aura of an arbitrator, had greatly improved his physical combat effectiveness.
Sheyan's advancement process took seven hours. If it were not for the protection of the flesh armour of Noah Realm C, he would have turned into ashes in space. However, he was not the one who took the longest time. Most of the people who were promoted were people who rushed to help them grow. Sheyan had a solid foundation, so he was lucky, but some people were even more unlucky than him. They were trapped in the illusions right away!
Even Aziz, in order to successfully promote his realm, temporarily removed the shackles of his flesh armour and placed himself in space. He used the threat of death to force himself to succeed in his promotion. However, the majority of the people who succeeded in their promotion were still the same. Even if there were some who failed, there were no casualties so far.
Sheyan had no interest in waiting in space. He waved his hand and sent out a signal. An Imperial spaceship that had been patrolling in the distance immediately flew over and respectfully received him. The spaceship then flew towards the giant steel warship in the distance. Sheyan was now a genuine Lieutenant General of the Empire, an out-and-out high-ranking official! His identity as a contestant was feared, and his military rank was even more so. Even the captain of this huge spaceship was only a Brigadier General. Who would dare to commit such a crime of disrespect in the Empire, which had a strict social hierarchy? Therefore, the Brigadier General was already waiting at the entrance to welcome them.
Sheyan nodded slightly and declined the invitation to a banquet and all kinds of tedious welcoming ceremonies. The others breathed a sigh of relief. These things were very important to the nobles of the Empire, and even the Brigadier General was no exception. If Sheyan, his superior, cared about these things, it would be enough to end his career.
After entering the warship, under Sheyan's command, the whole Party Ace quickly gathered here. Of course, they were all treated like officers, which was a far cry from the cold and symbolic reception the others received.
Not long after they settled down, the Brigadier General who was supposed to be on duty in the captain's room appeared in front of Sheyan with a serious face.
He said in a serious tone, "Sir Lieutenant General, His Excellency Prince Pombaru has heard about the great changes that have taken place here. This is the first time that Realms have devoured each other, so he expressed great interest …."
Sheyan asked in a low voice.
"And?"
"The Prince wants to know all the details, and you can gain his friendship," the Brigadier General replied respectfully. The Brigadier General replied respectfully. He glanced at Sheyan and continued, "More importantly, the prince emphasized that this is not only his decision, but also the decision of the entire Big Ben Research Institute."
