"Thank you for your guidance, sir."
The breakthrough had ended, but Cesar didn't bother checking what had changed. He immediately bowed to Qi Fei and Harvey.
Especially Harvey.
He'd been stuck at the final step for over a thousand years, but today, after watching Harvey fight, he'd finally taken that step.
Only he knew what it had felt like.
"There's no need for such formalities. You were already only a step away from becoming a Deity."
Harvey waved a hand, the very picture of a master.
But behind the scenes, he secretly sent Qi Fei a message through his divine sense: "Junior Brother, do you still have any Midgod Artifacts on you? Pick one suited to the Darkness Attribute for me. I'll give it to him."
Cesar had been the first of this group to break through, after all.
In a sense, that proved Harvey's teaching ability, so he deserved a little reward.
Under normal circumstances, when the recipient was neither kin nor friend, a Lowgod Artifact would have been more than generous.
After all, even an ordinary Low-God needed a thousand years—or even nearly ten thousand—to nourish one with divine power.
A ready-made artifact could save him a great deal of effort.
But Cesar had spent all these years making a name for himself on the Yulan Continent, and he'd already obtained a Lowgod Artifact from the Graveyard of the Gods.
So Harvey could only give him a Midgod Artifact.
But to Harvey, both Lowgod Artifacts and Midgod Artifacts were worthless junk.
He'd already given Qi Fei every bit of miscellaneous loot he'd picked up from killing other enemies during their appraisal game.
Now he genuinely had nothing on him.
He could only ask his junior brother for help.
"What kind do you need?"
Qi Fei answered at once.
