Chu Xisheng stared at the illusory screen before him, his brows furrowed into three deep lines.
His Blood Essence Points had not increased at all.
The number displayed was 2,413, seemingly thirty-odd points higher than after he had killed Taishu Ba.
The problem was that he had just fought a major battle outside, sweeping through nearly eighty disciples of Blood Bat Mountain and the Supreme Mystic Sect in a few dozen breaths.
Those additional Blood Essence Points had all come from the spectators nearby at the time.
Understanding immediately dawned on Chu Xisheng.
After watching the saber strike with which he had killed Taishu Ba, these gods already understood his strength.
Unless Chu Xisheng displayed some new power next, no amount of martial prowess would change their opinion of him, and naturally, he would gain no new Blood Essence Points.
Chu Xisheng clicked his tongue, knowing that if he wanted to shear more wool from these gods, he would have to wait until his Advancement to the Sixth Grade.
Or he could use his Yazi Bloodline and the power of the system's Character Cards in his next arena battle.
Not long ago, he had already refreshed the selection to obtain the "Qin Muge Upper Sixth Grade Character Card (Trial Version)" and the "Blood-Yazi Saber Lord Upper Sixth Grade Character Card (Trial Version)."
Both cards were extremely expensive, costing him two hundred Blood Essence Points in total.
As long as he displayed greater power, he could change the gods' perception of him.
The core of this system was "belief." As long as these gods believed he possessed Upper Sixth Grade strength, they could also give him large quantities of Blood Essence Points.
But that was very risky.
He wanted neither his system nor his Yazi Bloodline exposed to these ancient gods.
