Chapter 159

Lily's monthly allowance was around the same as her family's entire year's income!

''Becca, how could you steal your sister's bracelet?''

''She's been nothing but nice to you, how dare you steal it!'' Suddenly more girls chimed in, all trying to appease Missy.

Right now Missy, definitely a pretty girl, was sitting with slightly red eyes. Lily followed her gaze towards a small red jade bracelet that was held in Becca's hand.

''Sister, if you would've asked, I definitely would have given you the bracelet. You didn't need to steal it.''

Missy sniffled slightly hea tear rolling down her cheek. Unfortunately her young age left a flaw in her acting.

Lily clearly saw the arrogance in her eyes when she looked, the mocking and condescending thoughts.

But this wasn't her place to step in.

At this point Becca began to talk.

''Sister, I didn't do it. I found it on my desk so I was bringing it back to you.'' Her pitiful but slightly angelic voice came out.

Unfortunately her face was covered by long black hair, so it was impossible to tell how she was feeling from her looks.. But it was pretty clear she was unhappy.

''Your lying, I saw you take it from Missys desk myself!'' One of the girls spoke condescendingly.

Immediately Becca was surrounded by a group of condescending remarks. Lily just returned to her seat casually as Becca ran out crying.

However Lily curiously looked at Mathias. His eyes were locked on Missy the entire time. He seemed to have had a mental battle, affection appearing in his eyes as well as distress when he saw her crying.

But in the end he returned to looking straight down at his desk.

Lily saw this and was slightly curious. As a child she constantly wanted to know the background of things like this.

So when she left school and sat in the Limousine she spoke.

''Auntie has someone check the background of my Classmate Mathias. I want to know his connections to Missy. ''

''Yes young miss.'' the woman replied and immediately called someone to pass on the order.

Lily nodded in satisfaction. She enjoyed having so much power at her fingertips.

''Let's go shopping, driver take us to the nearest shopping mall.'' Lily said happily, looking at the seven digit number of credits she has.

A mixture of her allowances and her mothers payments.

While Lily was enjoying herself, Samuel was sat deep within the Headquarters of the Dog of War compound.

A faint sweat was forming on his head. Deep within his body the Spiritual Pond was growing in size.

Slowly it grew to the size of a Lake! At this point the tree on the border started to change. The vines began to grow out, before falling to the ground and melting towards the lake.

They formed small circles before transforming into familiar lily pads. Meanwhile the tree continuously grew in size, its height reaching seventy metres before it stopped.

Samuel felt his body was no longer able to contain the growing tree. With a heavy growl, Samuels rank broke through to High Rank 2.

And at the same time, the tree suddenly exploded into lights of green before pouring out of Samuels body.

Slowly in the courtyard behind the headquarters, a giant tree began to form. Spiritual Energy from the surroundings poured in, as many dogs of war felt their vitality slightly leave and fly towards it.

The seventy metre oak tree was majestic, its many branches swaying in the air.

Beneath it there was a large pool of Spiritual Liquid, this was where Samuel trained his Dark Guards.

You could see dozens of masked figures appear and look up towards the tree before bowing.

Samuel felt his perception change as he could see everything from the tree's perspective.

At the same time, each leaf was like a personal connection to him. If he wanted he could use them as weapons or shields, the same with every branch and every root.

Samuels main body still in practice, suddenly urged his spiritual energy, the strength of a High Rank 2 Warrior broke out immediately. The surroundings twisted and Samuels body began to float.

The only stable thing was the lily pads on the lake of Spiritual Liquid in his body.

''Haha finally High Rank 2!'' Samuel shouted happily. This was definitely a large improvement.

Although Samuel didn't practice quickly, his foundation was incomparably stable. He was confident he could fight a dozen High Rank 2 Warriors who were promoted normally.

Samuel wasn't the only one who broke through. Caterpillar Samuel and Serpentine Samuel both reached Middle Rank 2 two and three years ago.

A1 also finally condensed enough National Fortune to break through to Low Rank 2. This was definitely a good achievement for a 1 Inch Spiritual Root warrior.

Unfortunately his officials remained at the level of Middle Rank 1. But this is more than A1 could ask for.

It should've taken a million mortals to be a part of the empire, however all the newborns on the plane where warriors and each were easily worth more than fifty mortals.

Unfortunately the Dogs of War didn't have too high of a birth rate, so after the transitional dogs of war where loyal they returned to mating with mortal partners. This is all to boost the population.

If all the population were mortals then that would definitely be incredible! But the number of warriors were too small after all.

Otherwise it would definitely take ages for all of the people to break through.

A year quickly passed since Samuel reached High Rank 2. And today was a joyful event for Samuel, because he had saved up 5,000 Spiritual Crystals!

What was he going to do with these Spiritual Crystals? Well he was going to buy something from his system shop.

There are definitely many good talents for 5,000 Spiritual Crystals. Although like the Emperor talent that A1 has, they often have prerequisites.

For example, if A1 didn't have a territory he wouldn't have any strength.
