Then he asked Roar, "What about you? What did you learn?"

Roar replied, "I learned that spellcasting is hard in battle."

Arthur chuckled. Then he patted him and said encouragingly, "Don't worry. With practice you will get the hang of it."

The two of them flew back to the mission hall. Then they handed their kills in.

It was a must for every disciple to submit every corpse of every creature that they killed. The sect didn't have any tolerance for those who kept the corpses.

It was a must to give the sect the corpses because the sect needed them to feed the beasts in the inner sect and maintain the population of beasts for other disciples to have something to fight.

The most important part of the corpse that must be returned is their beast core. This is a valuable object that was created when an ant queen at the fourth mortal coil cut off part of her core to give to her children to form their foundation.

So the beast core is an example of the organ-type foundation and is established through transplantation. As powerful as the ant queen is, she can't keep cutting off her core indefinitely.

The queen has a limit to how many of the beast cores she can create. Once she reaches her limit, there will be no more champions for the disciples of the sect to practice with.

So the sect retrieves the beast cores and returns them to the ant queen. The ant queen then uses them to create new champions. This way the population of the champions is kept constant.

As for the corpse of the champions, the ants eat that too. It is all a part of the conservation mechanism that the sect has put in place.

Not all the corpses are fed to the ants at once. They are usually only fed to them when their population dips below an acceptable point.

Until their population dips, the corpses are usually stored for future needs. Some of the corpses are also put up for sale.

The corpses the sect will sell won't have their beast cores. But anyone who needs their flesh for forging or anything can still use the rest of the corpse. So if he needs the corpse for something in the future, he can always buy from the sect.

He has no objections to returning the corpse, mainly because the beasts were raised by the sect. In his humble opinion, it is already a good thing that they allowed him to use them to practice.

All he wanted at this point was to collect his killing points, not to argue about the ownership of the corpses with the sect. Then he intends to show up for the formation maintenance mission.

Fortunately, the whole process of judging his performance didn't need him to stand around and wait. As long as the video of his fight and the corpses were turned in, the attendants at the mission hall would do the rest.

When Arthur went off with Roar to examine and maintain formations, the attendants got to work determining how many killing points he would earn for his kills.

The biggest determinants of how many killing points he will earn are his cultivation level, the amount of time he has been in the inner sect, the strength of the beasts that he killed, and the ingenuity he showed during the process of killing them.

The four factors affected the final outcome in a ratio of 30:20:30:20. This indicated that his cultivation and the cultivation of the fire ants were the two most important factors to consider in determining how many killing points he should earn.

The first three factors were easy to determine. His cultivation level was easy to check. The amount of time he had been in the inner sect was even easier to check.

As for the strength of the beasts, this required checking and assessing the corpses of the slain beasts. This examination is done to determine the energy level of the beast.

By energy level, they determine the quantity and quality of mana in the body and core of the corpses. This is the most direct way to determine the power level or power output of the beast when it was alive.

For Beasts at the first mortal coil, the power output ranges from 1 to 10 units. The power output increases to 20 to 110 units at the second mortal coil. Then it balloons at the third mortal coil from 110 to a peak of 112,640.

These power levels are converted into units of measurement to make it easier to keep track of. The units used range from F to E to D to C and so on and so forth.

Every subsequent unit of measurement is 100 times the value of the previous unit. So 100F makes 1E, and 100E makes 1D.

By this definition, the power output of beasts at the first mortal coil is 1F to 10F. This changes to between 20F and 110F, or 1.1E, at the second mortal coil. Then at the third mortal coil, power becomes 1.1E to 11.2D.

In this way, the power output of the beasts was measured to range from 10E to 30E. That is, their power output ranged from 1,000 units to 3,000 units since 100F made 1E.

This is the kind of power that someone at the third mortal coil with a 100% host vessel technique will be able to create with 10 to 30 life seeds, with each life seed outputting at least 100 units of power.

This is a large disparity when compared to the two life seeds that Arthur possesses. Not even the boost of an armament was significant enough to cover this disparity in power.

As someone who just advanced to the third mortal coil, his power output should be 220. That is the normal 110 multiplied by the enhancement of the armament.
