"If two points of energy value can fetch forty million, then on average, each point of energy value brings in twenty million. This increase... is indeed somewhat exaggerated."
When Zhang Yanhang was at the Fourth Tier, a single energy point could only be exchanged for five hundred thousand. Therefore, calculated in this way, his talent strength at the Fifth Tier now is equivalent to a direct fortyfold increase, which is truly a bit extravagant.
"At the Third Tier, one point of energy value could only yield twenty-five thousand yuan, so my strength at the Fifth Tier is roughly eight hundred times that of the Third Tier."
When he was at the Second Tier, a single point of energy value could only fetch two thousand five hundred yuan. So, calculating in this manner, there is an eight-thousand-fold difference between the Second and Fifth Tier.
"At the First Tier, I could even only get five hundred yuan per energy point. Doesn't that mean there is now a forty-thousand-fold difference between the First and Fifth Tier?"
Although Zhang Yanhang thought it was a bit exaggerated, after thinking carefully, he felt it was actually quite reasonable. After all, not to mention forty thousand First Tier versions of him, even if forty thousand First Tier versions of him combined, they probably wouldn't cause him any harm.
"Moreover, forty thousand times seems a lot, but actually, each tier's foundation has a tenfold strength improvement, so there is inherently more than a ten-thousand-fold gap between the First and Fifth Tier. Therefore, forty thousand times is just four times the average strength."
Of course, if you calculate the specific total strength difference in energy value, it would definitely be higher. After all, his energy value limit now exceeds thirty thousand points, whereas his energy limit at the First Tier was only two hundred fifty points, leading to a 136-fold difference.
Thus, while it seems to be a forty-thousand-fold gap, when accounting for the total energy strength, the difference is actually 5.44 million times.
After a simple calculation, Zhang Yanhang felt he finally understood why Multiple Choice always enables a significant increase in ability after each promotion. It's likely because the intensity surge is too fast.
"It's a pity Multiple Choice isn't an offensive talent, so no matter how much the intensity increases, it doesn't seem very apparent."
Considering the current rate of intensity improvement, if Multiple Choice were an offensive talent, Zhang Yanhang believes he might not need any additional professional skills for support, solely relying on Multiple Choice for terrifying combat capabilities, like destroying the moon in a single strike. But unfortunately, Multiple Choice is a supportive talent.
"Since a single energy point can fetch twenty million now, doesn't that mean my entire energy bar, which has 33,967 energy points, can yield 679.3 billion in one go?"
Roughly calculating, Zhang Yanhang found that with his current energy limit recovering up to twenty-six million in a twenty-four-hour period, he could directly "print" over five trillion a day, which, converted to dollars, is roughly three times the United States' GDP.
Of course, calculating these might already be meaningless because, as the Fourth Tier is a provincial-level Awakener, Zhang Yanhang has naturally become a national-level Awakener at the Fifth Tier, which means having the capacity to quickly destroy a country.
If it's a regular Fifth Tier Awakener, they might only have the strength to destroy some small nations, but for Zhang Yanhang, he likely already possesses the power to swiftly annihilate any country on Earth except for the Empire. In this context, calculating GDP naturally has little significance.
As for why he cannot swiftly destroy the Empire, it's simply because the Empire is the world's largest country, regardless of land area or population, being unique. It's called a country but is closer to an independent continent. Therefore, although destroying it would probably not be difficult, it certainly cannot be "quick."
"Now that even talents have been reviewed, it feels like there's nothing else to do, so this promotion is finally concluded."
Zhang Yanhang felt that this promotion seemed much more prolonged than previous ones, but fortunately, it is now finally over.
After feeling that there was nothing left to do, Zhang Yanhang immediately opened his data panel and began checking.

"After promotion to the Fifth Tier, the changes on the data panel are indeed quite significant. However, given that it's only early November and I've already reached the Fifth Tier, could I really retire directly before my birthday in February?"
Although Zhang Yanhang doesn't know the exact limit of the ranks for an Awakener, he feels that he definitely needs to reach the top before retiring. Of course, if he can become invincible after becoming a god, it's actually possible for him to retire at that time, considering the earlier the retirement, the sooner the enjoyment.
Moreover, retiring doesn't mean that he can't increase his strength anymore, it's just that his days will surely be relatively lazy after retirement.
"This time, the promotion is indeed relatively slower compared to last time, not only has the profession level only increased to LV.43, but the main attributes are still quite far from the Tier limit..."
Besides, Zhang Yanhang feels that the promotion speed might be relatively slow this time as well, mainly because he doesn't plan to continue using the transmission channel at the large Crimson Iron Ant Nest Talano's side, and instead plans to continue using the transmission channel at Raccoon City to explore the area related to dragon monsters.
Thus, he can only honestly wait for four days, until the cooling time of the transmission channel ends, to explore new areas and correspondingly clear monsters.
Specifically, today is November 2nd, and he has to wait until the afternoon of November 5th for the cooling time of the Raccoon City transmission channel to end, and start a new round of transmissions.
"Moreover, the number of skills in the skill list has become increasingly large, now there are 15 skills, and among them, 12 are professional skills."
Zhang Yanhang feels that if he continues to promote a few more times, the number of professional skills might exceed 20.
"Originally, I had a total of ten points of Legendary Essence and seventeen points of Ash Source. Earlier, upgrading Alchemy to Truth Alchemy consumed four points of Ash Source, instantly dropping my original seventeen points of Ash Source to thirteen points. This is probably the cost of upgrading Alchemy without requiring Legendary Essence and Soul Points."
Under normal circumstances, four points of Ash Source would be enough for Zhang Yanhang to upgrade four skills. It could only be said that it's fortunate he had just obtained a large amount of Ash Source earlier, otherwise, the Fifth Tier would be similar to the Fourth Tier, where he could barely promote, needing to wait until after defeating the Lord Monster to upgrade Alchemy.
"Well, next I should test out the specific strength of the Fifth Tier."
Based on past experience, Zhang Yanhang decided to find a more barren place to test his strength. Qin Island City's coastal area certainly is not an option, as testing there now at the Fifth Tier would almost certainly impact Qin Island City, which is somewhat inappropriate.
As for asking which place is relatively barren and can be casually destructed, Greenland is indeed quite suitable, considering it was already wrecked by him last time. Further damage wouldn't matter, and Greenland is large enough anyway.
Despite Greenland being about 8,000 kilometers away from Qin Island City, after promotion to the Fifth Tier, the transmission distance for Zhang Yanhang has increased again, from the original 1,000 kilometers to 2,000 kilometers.
Therefore, for a place like Greenland, which is 8,000 kilometers away, Zhang Yanhang can teleport there directly in just four transmissions, which is indeed quite convenient. Moreover, it's true not to waste the daily free teleportation count.
........
November 2nd, Monday, the first day after Halloween, as well as Zhang Yanhang's first day leaving the Ashen World, 8:50 AM, Greenland, Land of Fallen.
Wondering what kind of place the Land of Fallen is, it's naturally the place where meteors fall, namely the center point of Zhang Yanhang's last impact.
Perhaps because several days have passed, the environment here is noticeably better compared to when the impact had just occurred. At least the large hole caused by his original impact through the crust has been filled by the overflowing magma already, now entirely covered by black Magma Rock.
Even the cracks in the vicinity, originally formed during impact, are now packed with the mixture of Magma Rock formed by cooled Magma and fractured Basalt, and the surface of these Magma Rocks is covered by a layer of ice and snow.
Zhang Yanhang believes it's possibly the heat of the earlier magma caused the ice layer to melt and re-cover over it, which in turn cooled the magma down, eventually leading it to become its current state.
Additionally, perhaps due to prior heavy snowfall, the ground previously full of blood and Grey ash dust has returned to being snow-covered, except for the overly large cliffs formed into steep precipices. Now, the Land of Fallen surprisingly looks normal.
Of course, Zhang Yanhang believes it's also fortunate that he made a choice to prevent the continuation of the shockwave's spread at that time; otherwise, this place would likely be completely shattered and peaceful now.
To test the movement speed after promoting to the Fifth Tier, Zhang Yanhang roamed back and forth along Greenland's vast continental shelf, only taking under two minutes. Be mindful that Greenland's entire diameter is more than 2,000 kilometers.
After careful calculation, Zhang Yanhang discovered his movement speed indeed surged with the Tier's promotion.
Specifically speaking, his current movement speed had increased from the original 9,523 meters per second to 47,181 meters per second, compared to before an increase of 37,658 meters per second.
When converted into Mach numbers, Zhang Yanhang's current movement speed had increased from the original 28 Mach to 139 Mach, approximately a direct increase of 111 Mach in movement speed.
"Why does it feel like this time's movement speed increase seems inexplicably high? Clearly, I didn't choose a movement speed bonus in this upgrade's main attribute reward, did I?"
Zhang Yanhang recalls that this upgrade solely depended on the additional attribute of Eight Arms and Eight Feet, Flying Sand and Rolling Stones, for a 120% movement speed bonus, and his Agility now is only 123 points, not yet leveled to the Tier limit. Having such a high movement speed indeed surprised him.
"Could it be the deepening of body energy transformation bringing about these changes?"
Zhang Yanhang doesn't know why, but suddenly recalls some unknown change appearing in his body previously. He now thinks it's possible this unknown change is the reason his movement speed this time increased unexpectedly higher.
"So, the question comes, what kind of transformation could lead to an increase in movement speed?"
Confronted with this kind of question, Zhang Yanhang is too lazy to think, so he chooses to directly ask Multiple Choice, after all, with Multiple Choice available, why bother thinking by oneself? Directly copying the answer is indeed really satisfying.
After simply spending a little Energy Value to make a selection and ask Multiple Choice, Zhang Yanhang soon learned the answer, the reason his movement speed increased more than he imagined this time is indeed as he thought, due to the deepening of body energy transformation bringing about these changes.
