Success Strategy

"Is this the evaluation of the royal battle?"

Yohan rubbed his chin, understanding the evaluation rules.

By carrying a Hollow and retrieving a [semi-knight] medal, the path would continue to attract attacks from spiritual monsters. Therefore, one must either be fast enough so that the Reatsu monsters cannot catch up, or strong enough to kill them along the way.

At the same time, one must also be cautious of fellow Quincy.

The rules state that one cannot take a Hollow, but it does not specify that one cannot take a [semi-knight] medal. As long as you do not kill anyone in the process, everything is compliant.

From this perspective, nothing during the journey should come as a surprise.

"Given this rule, isn't it clear that this is the least costly way?"

Just wait until the others complete the evaluation, then bring a [semi-knight] medal and take it for yourself.

The only question is whether Yohan himself needs to give up the Hollow!

If he does not surrender, even if he stays where he is, there will be a continuous flow of Reatsu monsters surrounding him. Yohan still needs to deal with these spiritual child monsters until the other Quincy masters return. This is no small consumption.

However, if the Hollow is disposed of, it means Yohan will make all the remaining Quincies give up the bait.

"Which of these two methods... is less costly?"

Yohan thought, there was no need to worry too much; he had already made his choice in his heart.

Isn't it obvious which side has more Reatsu monsters and destroyers?

At that moment, after waiting for all the Quincies to gather the false bait and set off, he went to get one for himself and then disposed of it immediately.

Sarkis was watching Yohan's movements from a distance; after all, he was a qualified tenth-degree master.

After seeing Yohan discard the false bait directly, he was extremely surprised and walked over to look at him, unable to help but speak.

"You just surrendered without hesitation?"

Yohan spread his hands.

"This is a hot issue; why keep it? I don't want to stay here and be continuously attacked by Reatsu monsters."

Upon hearing that, Sarkis glanced at him and then smiled.

"Haha, it seems you have your own understanding of the evaluation rules."

Yohan nodded.

"That's fine; after all, this evaluation is not meant for tenth-degree Quincy masters like me who have [spiritual focus]!"

Hearing this, Sarkis looked at Yohan in astonishment.

"Why do you say that?"

Yohan laughed. "Isn't it obvious?"

"This spiritual child monster was built by someone at the knight level, and the standard for the tenth degree [spiritual focus] is the [arrow] looted by a fully-fledged Sternritter."

"This means that as long as the [spiritual focus] standard reaches the tenth level, it is entirely possible to loot the souls of Reatsu monsters, which is not a threat at all!"

Yohan also gestured around him.

"This time, the evaluation team was divided into five teams. Don't you think it's unnecessary to split the evaluation team into five teams when the royal battle evaluation could be conducted all at once?"

"Isn't it because there are five groups of tenth-degree spirits in this batch of Quincy masters!"

"If we really wanted to gather these five chapters together and use the Reishi absorption together, all the Reatsu monsters would turn into spiritual particles, and this evaluation would be meaningless!"

Yohan's words shocked Sarkis, and his expression was astonished. After a while, he could only speak.

"It seems you have grasped the concept of this evaluation."

"Let's not talk about the high talent that Master Quincy possesses... the mind can turn quickly. When I came to participate in the evaluation, I didn't think of this at all; I foolishly went to bring a [semi-knight] medal to complete the evaluation!"

Sarkis said that and pointed into the distance.

"That's right, just like that big guy!"

Yohan looked at what Sarkis was pointing to.

As expected, he saw a very large Quincy rushing forward with false bait, not using Reishi absorption, just charging into a pile of spiritual seeds, fighting only.

"This man's name is Mask De Masculine. He is very good at handling blood equipment [Blut]. I believe there are not many ordinary knights who can withstand the attack of his blood equipment. In the future, he will be a strong soldier in Sternritter."

"However, despite being strong, his mind isn't very good. He can obviously use [blood equipment] or [holy destruction arrow], but he insists on hand-to-hand combat!"

"Please, we are Quincy masters!"

This person was known to Yohan and was also one of the [Sternritter] knights in the future. The holy text symbolizes [S], meaning the super star, and the symbolic ability is [the hero].

Once supported, his power would increase significantly, even recovering from injuries.

In the Quincy Thousand-Year Blood War camp, he could be said to be one of the few with the best record. With the strength of one person, he knocked down two Shinigami at the captain level and several vice-captains, although the two leaders were somewhat weak.

In the end, Abarai Renji, who returned from the Spirit King's palace, used his true Bankai to kill him.

"The person on the other side is named Cang du. He is the complete opposite of the big man. He is very good at fixed blood styles. It is rumored that he has never been injured since becoming a Quincy master. He is also a strong candidate for Sternritter."

Another acquaintance, Cang du, the Quincy who captured Tōshirō Hitsugaya's Bankai in the Thousand-Year Blood War, the holy character represented by [I], meaning iron, and the symbolic ability is [steel].

This ability can increase his defensive power to an amazing level. Even the leader of the [Star Cross Knights], Jugram Haschwalth, cannot penetrate the defense without using the holy text ability.

"As for the other two, Bambietta Basterbine and Thors, they are much more ordinary."

Both took the default bait and used arrows to destroy the Reatsu monsters, waiting to snatch the medal.

"But you, Yohan, seem to have an out-of-the-box idea for how to finish your evaluation..."

After saying that, Sarkis glanced at him.

"Why did you give up the default bait? Is it possible that you plan to threaten all the Quincies to give up the default bait?"

"According to previous years' experiences, most Quincies return at almost the same time, but they are all scattered. No matter how fast you are, you won't be able to do that!"

"If you are eliminated by that time... it would be a shame."

Upon hearing this, Yohan just remained silent and then said.

"You will know soon enough."

"Right."

It seemed that Sarkis remembered something and asked.

"Most tenth-degree Quincy masters are good at something. Mask De Masculine is good at blood equipment, and Cang is good at fixed blood equipment for defense!"

"A Quincy master with such outstanding abilities increases the likelihood of becoming a knight of the star cross."

"Bambietta is very strong in all aspects and has almost no flaws. At the same time, she has great destructive power; her holy arrow is strong, which is extremely impressive. She is also a strong candidate for the position of star cross knight!"

That's right. After all, the holy text that Bambietta will obtain in the future is [E], which represents the ability [explosion], an ability that can turn whatever it collides with into [a bomb].

From the perspective of the entire [Sternritter], her production ability can be described as excellent.

"On the contrary, Thors is somewhat average. The basic spiritual focus is good, but there is nothing special about it. A man like that has a high probability of falling when he becomes an ordinary knight like me."

"What about you? Is there anything you are particularly good at? You can't be good at nothing, right?"

Yohan spread his hands, making himself look foolish.

"You will know when someone returns."

Sarkis could only sigh; after all, he had given his advice as a supervisor, but the rest was up to Yohan.
