Chapter 354: Three Levels Ascension.

The challenge had already ended.
But many Blue Star players were still reluctant to leave, cheerfully bragging with players from other civilizations until the designated time arrived, then they left with lingering fondness.
Perhaps for many of them, this farewell was a permanent one.
After all, the odds of advancing to a D-level civilization were too slim, and most players here would find it difficult to ascend to a D-level civilization in a short time. Wouldn't that be a permanent farewell?
...
Accompanied by countless white lights flashing in the white space, all Blue Star players were declared officially returned.
"Ding, congratulations to the Blue Star Civilization for successfully advancing to a D-level civilization. The 'Civilization Remodeling' feature is now officially unlocked. We hope all players will continue to strive."
As the prompt sounded, it signified that this promotion battle had officially ended.
And the Blue Star players reappeared on their familiar Blue Star.
Indeed, without comparison, there would be no hurt. Before experiencing this battle, they only knew that Chen Miao was very powerful, but they didn't have a very direct concept of how powerful Chen Miao was.
Until they saw the shock in the eyes of players from other civilizations.
Only then did they realize what the concept of Chen Miao's strength truly entailed.
In other words, at the moment Chen Miao should be one of the strongest, because according to other civilizations, the strongest player of the most powerful E-level civilization has only 600 million Combat Power, while Chen Miao directly has 1.4 billion, more than double.
In fact.
E-level civilizations, D-level civilizations, and even those of C-level civilizations.
The strongest players among these civilizations don't usually differ too much in Combat Power, and the gap isn't exceptionally wide.
After all, there are only so many ways to increase Combat Power. If you can increase your Combat Power, others can use the same methods too, and there aren't many more ways to boost Combat Power when ascending from E-level to D-level, so the difference is not substantial.
Moreover.
In most cases, the strongest player's Combat Power is closely related to the overall Combat Power of the civilization.
For example, as the strongest in your civilization, many of your Occupational Weapons or material outputs have to come from high-level secret realms. If your civilization's overall Combat Power doesn't keep up, it means many high-level secret realms remain uncleared.
The output of these materials can only depend on you alone.
And how high can an individual's output be?
So most of the time, a civilization's peak Combat Power cannot exceed the overall Combat Power by too much, as it is somewhat unrealistic. No player can fly solo; they definitely need to rely on the entire society.
So Chen Miao is truly an anomaly in this regard.
If we really have to say...
It's just that the Nothingness Space has improved him too much.
Speaking of Nothingness Space, he almost forgot, his own Nothingness Space had long met the requirements for another level up.
The requirements were a breeze for him now.
Level up to Player Level 60, clear an S-level or higher secret realm, and then spend 1 million Star Coins. For him, these three requirements were quite easy to meet.
Without much thought.
Standing on the spot, Chen Miao looked at his Nothingness Space panel.
"Ding, congratulations on successfully upgrading your Nothingness Space to level 6."
"Your Nothingness Space is now level 6, with dimensions of 500 meters in length, width, and height."
"And you have acquired an exclusive Firearm Skin 'Bai Ze'."
"To level up to the next level, Player Level must reach 200, participate in and kill a world boss, and you need to spend 1 million Star Coins."
-
He received a skin as a reward.
And with more space, he no longer had any Occupational Weapons to use with the unique Firearm Skin, but it was not a big problem. He could apply this unique Firearm Skin to his S-level weapon 'Cup of Equity' again.
By doing so, his little pistol would become even more powerful.
But the conditions for this upgrade were very difficult.
For the average player, it was almost an impossible task—to participate in and kill a world boss. To date, he had only encountered two world bosses, one during the E-level civilization promotion and the other during the D-level civilization promotion.
Participating and killing a world boss meant that you had to deliver the final blow, that the boss's final blow must come from him.
Every time players swarm to attack a world boss, getting the final blow in such a scenario is harder than reaching the sky, but for Chen Miao, this was actually the easiest part.
Both times, the final blow of the world bosses was his, even the first hit was his.
Upon fulfilling all the requirements—
Level up again!
-
"Ding, congratulations on successfully upgrading your Nothingness Space to level 7."
"Your Nothingness Space is now level 7, with dimensions of 1000 meters in length, width, and height."
"And you have acquired an exclusive Firearm Skin 'Zheng'."
"To level up to the next level, Player Level must reach 400, civilization must be promoted to D-level, and you need to spend 1 million Star Coins."
-
Another upgrade.
-
"Ding, congratulations on successfully upgrading your Nothingness Space to level 8."
"Your Nothingness Space is now level 8, with dimensions of 2000 meters in length, width, and height."
"And you have acquired an exclusive Firearm Skin 'Bi Fang'."
"To level up to the next level, Player Level must reach 600, civilization must be promoted to C-level, and you need to spend 1 million Star Coins."
-
Three levels up in a row.
He was directly rewarded with three unique Firearm Skins, which would probably enhance his strength by another degree; his Combat Power seems like it could break 1.4 billion and reach a higher tier, aiming for maybe 1.5 billion, which shouldn't be a big problem.
