After coming back from Taiping Mountain Path, Jiang Kai took out the Super Five materials for the Feng Shui Master, the drunkard, and the Executioner, then handed them out to the three of them.
Seeing the materials, Hu Yan and the other two had their hands trembling with excitement.
"Extraordinary Fifth Rank, I… I can finally break through the extraordinary realm!" Hu Yan said in a shaking voice.
Jiang Kai patted Hu Yan's shoulder with a smile. "As we develop Ghost Star more and more deeply, I'm sure the materials for the later stages will appear too."
"Kai Squad, I don't even know what to say…" Ruan Yu said, choking up. "I never thought you would spend a huge amount of money to buy these materials for us!"
Jiang Kai gave a small smile. "Well, the money spent on you three's job-change materials… I'll check it when I get back. Just remember to pay me back later… oh, and don't forget the interest."
The three of them had been moved to tears a second ago, but in the next instant, their faces froze.
"We have to pay it back… and… and with interest?"
Jiang Kai nodded. "Alright, don't be too touched. Hurry up and change your classes."
After Jiang Kai left, Hu Yan looked at Ruan Yu. "Ruan Ghost, did you pay back what you owed Kai Squad last time?"
"I haven't even paid off the interest yet!"
"Last time you only owed a few million star coins. This time the job-change materials are worth more than tens of millions of star coins. How are we supposed to pay that back?" Hu Yan said, worried.
Ruan Yu waved his hand. "It's fine. Kai Squad is stingy, yeah, but he can't do finances. We'll owe it for now. Give it some time and whether he remembers or not is another story."
"What if he remembers?" Ouyang Yi asked carefully.
"If he remembers, he remembers. We'll pay him back slowly then. If we really can't pay, then don't pay for a thousand years, ten thousand years."
Ouyang Yi's eyes widened. "Ruan Ghost, your strategy is the same as mine. I still owe quite a bit of guild contribution points myself!"
Ruan Yu smiled slightly. "Relax. Go change your class."
The three of them hurried to the backyard, each found a room, and began changing to their extraordinary professions.
He Shishi saw Jiang Kai wandering around in the guild and dragged him straight toward the guild leader's room.
"What are you doing? Tugging and pulling like that. It looks bad if people see it." Jiang Kai finally got free from He Shishi's hand.
"You told me to prepare for the guild upgrade. Who else am I supposed to find?" He Shishi glared at him. "A guild assessment must have the guild leader leading the team."
"Can't the vice leader also lead the team for the assessment?"
"You really push off anything you can… and our guild doesn't even have a vice leader yet!"
"Then you be it."
"Me? You… you want me to be the vice leader?"
"Yes," Jiang Kai said. "Hu Yan and the others all say that without you, there's no way Lord God could have developed this quickly. I think you're perfect for vice leader."
"But I… I still have to go back to Xuanwu sooner or later."
Jiang Kai looked at He Shishi. "When are you planning to go back?"
He Shishi looked around.
The Lord God Guild's base had already become completely different under her renovations. The land area had doubled, and all the intelligent departments had formed a proper scale.
The guild's population had grown from single digits to more than three hundred people.
Every one of these people was chosen by her and Four-Season Flower with great care. You could say every single one had passed their screening.
Although most of them weren't combat professions, you could see from their faces that they were full of confidence about their future.
The Lord God had people dedicated to helping them level up, and the guild's contribution points were more than those of an A-rank guild. As long as they could make the appropriate contributions in the future, they didn't need to worry about the guild not giving out contribution rewards.
More importantly, the members of Fire God Squad, Hu Yan, Ruan Yu, Ouyang Yi, had already become the pioneers for them.
In the past these people were just muddling through life on Ghost Star, earning some nuclear soil to support their families. But now, their fighting spirit had rekindled.
After being crushed by despair for so long, seeing hope again made them treasure it more. Every one of them wanted to contribute to the Lord God Guild.
This atmosphere was something she had never felt in any branch of the Xuanwu Guild.
And all of this was closely tied to her and Four-Season Flower. They were personally experiencing and witnessing a vibrant guild growing step by step.
In this one year with the Lord God Guild, He Shishi and the others had gone from rejecting it at first to blending into it now. Without realizing it, they had already grown attached to the Lord God.
"I… we haven't decided yet," He Shishi said hesitantly.
"We can talk about it when you go back." Jiang Kai waved his hand and, taking advantage of her dazed moment, bolted away.
"Jiang Kai!" He Shishi wanted to say something more, but Jiang Kai had already vanished.
He Shishi shook her head. Maybe… it was precisely because of this hands-off shopkeeper that she had grown so attached to the Lord God.
This guy never handled anything. It was always her running around. How could she not get attached?
Late at night, Jiang Kai lay on the lawn in the back garden resting.
The three of them were changing classes, so he didn't dare relax and had to stay outside to guard them.
By dawn, Ouyang Yi was the first to walk out of the room.
When he came out, he looked completely exhausted. As someone who had been through it, Jiang Kai knew that changing from a mortal profession to an extraordinary one wasn't just about the potions. Willpower mattered even more, which meant the extraordinary job change consumed tons of stamina and mental energy.
"Ouyang!" Jiang Kai quickly jumped up and rushed over to support the staggering Ouyang Yi.
"How is it?"
Ouyang Yi lifted his head and said weakly, "It's done."
"What profession?" Jiang Kai asked impatiently.
Ouyang Yi directly turned on his wristwatch for Jiang Kai to see, then sat down on the lawn and leaned against a big tree. "See for yourself. I'm going to rest."
Jiang Kai immediately checked Ouyang Yi's class-change information.
[Wuchang: Executioner Extraordinary Fifth Rank Profession.]
[Black Wuchang State: bloodthirsty, oppressive to souls, possesses a special attack called Soul Attack.]
[Soul Attack: a form of true-energy attack, but only effective on souls.]
[White Wuchang State: can guide wandering souls to rest, can capture soul bodies.]
Jiang Kai's eyes widened. "Executioner Extraordinary Fifth Rank is Black and White Wuchang?! Damn!"
Ouyang Yi shook his head. "After reaching extraordinary, the same profession will develop into branches based on individual conditions. I think it's the same for us Executioners. Not every Executioner's Super Five profession will be Wuchang."
"How are the stats?"
"No big surprises. Same as Martial Disciple and Soldier, all stats multiplied by five. It's just that this new profession talent has special bonuses to souls and ghosts and stuff."
Jiang Kai frowned. "Your profession is really weird. It can attack souls."
"Many physical methods don't work on wandering souls, but you can attack them directly!"
Ouyang Yi shook his head. "I think it might not be that simple. The Black Wuchang state's Soul Attack is an attack on the soul. Wandering souls are pure soul states, but living beings also have souls. They're just hidden inside the flesh."
Jiang Kai's eyes went wide instantly. That meant in Black Wuchang state, he could also damage living beings, and with a soul attack that was incredibly hard to defend against.
"Damn, Ouyang, if it's really like you say, then even I have to be careful if I run into Wuchang!"
"Hehehehe, Kai Squad, be nicer to me from now on."
Jiang Kai thought for a moment. "No, I have the Divine Might Aura. Your mental attacks shouldn't be able to hurt me."
Ouyang Yi had just gotten proud when Jiang Kai hit him with that, and he could only say gloomily, "Not everyone has the Divine Might Aura…"
