On the official website of the Star Alliance, a saying is popular in many forums dedicated to the cultivation of Star Lords: First-order runes, second-order artifacts, third-order arrays, and fourth-order ironclads and big guns run amok without restraint.
This refers to the basic development of vassals as a Star Lord progresses from the first to the fourth order of their Natal Star.
Among first-order Natal Stars, first-order vassals primarily rely on rune masters creating various rune artifacts to unleash their peak combat power. Among second-order Natal Stars, second-order vassals have already become capable of cultivating artifact refiners to forge various dharma artifacts to enhance their vassals' combat prowess.
Among third-order Natal Stars, third-order vassals are able to cultivate array masters and refine various array artifacts and array diagrams, allowing their vassals to form battle arrays for combat and slaughter. By the time they reach fourth-order Natal Stars, fourth-order vassals are already capable of fusing runes, artifacts, and arrays into one, manufacturing all sorts of War Treasures like ironclads and big guns to run amok across the battlefield.
During the Second Mock Exam star, a beam of light blasted through the depths of the demon cave, and a thousand-zhang airborne warship washed the ground with rosy light—obviously one of those War Treasures known as "ironclads and big guns."
Moreover, it was likely not a low-grade War Treasure, but at least of mid-grade quality or higher.
It was just unclear whether the person who struck was a veteran Fourth-Tier Star Lord or a Fifth-Tier Star Lord.
With the Star Lords watching from the outside stepping in to wipe out the Demon Tide, this Second Mock Exam finally came to an end.
