Our XingQiu proceed to check the barracks information.
Giving the order in their mind, the panel displaying their barracks information came up.

....
"A-Xing, what do you think?" Qiu ask xing opinion. Honestly, he didn't know how to evaluate these barracks.
Xing help Qiu to analyse, giving his opinion "I feel this barracks is powerful Qiuqiu. It even came with special effects. 100% fixed loyalty is important, we didn't have to worry about the possible betrayal or rebellion. And it seem that these barracks can summon many clan within a single race. Quite systematic, only need to upgrade the level plus the increases in summoning chances each time. The number of our subject will rise dramatically with the subsequent upgrade."
Qiu nodded his head thoughtfully while listening to Xing analysis.
"Then, it's strong indeed. Let's summon it. I want to see our troops capabilities."
"Umm"
Walking into the Celestial Palace, the interior is as magical as the outside. They stopped in front of the summoning pool in the center of the hall.
Looking at each other, they nodded their head, giving confirmation. Then Xing give order in his mind, 'summon'
The pool instantly lit up with colourful light. In this light figures can be seen appearing one after the other. The most intense light came from the figure in front.
After a while, the light disappeared, they finally saw the troops they summon.
There is exactly 30 of them, all are male. They are wearing a blood red robe with moon pattern on it. The figure in front is a young looking man who seem to be the leader.
All of them step forward, lead by the young man to kneel, and greet XingQiu in unison.
"We pay our respects to the Lords, we are the Slaughter Moon branch of the Celestial Race."
"Good, get up all of you"
Qiu make a gesture to stand up. He simultaneously look at these people information.
[Name: Yue Hong (Hero)
Rank: Unique Supreme
Level: Black Iron 1 Star
Talent: Infinite Slaughter
Skills: Blood Moon of Slaughter, Blood Moon, Blade of Thousands Blood, Blood Control, Slaughter Souls Fire]
[Name: Slaughter Moon Clan
Rank: Unique Supreme
Level: Black Iron 1 Star
Talent: Slaughter Souls
Skills: Blood Moon, Blade of Thousands Blood, Blood Control, Slaughter Souls Fire]
"Wow, simple yet powerful. All of them are at the Unique Supreme rank. I like it."
Qiu nodded his head. Looking at A-Xing beside him;
"Are you satisfied?" "Umm" "Then let's go to the next one" "Yes"
Walking outside with Xing, while Yue Hong and the others at the back, the got inside the Nature Palace.
As usual, with the mental command of summon by Qiu, a colourful light appeared.
Exactly the same as what happened at the Celestial Palace, 30 tall figure emerged from this light, but this time around all of them are female.
Leading at the front is tall woman, almost 2 meters tall, with green hair and white skin, wearing emerald coloured armour and shield. 'Is this a tank?" Looking back at the the male at the back, all of them is only about 1.80 meters with the tallest being the leader at 1.88 meters, an absurd imagination appear in Qiu mind, making him smile cheekily.
Xing who saw that smile can only smile back helplessly, thinking that Qiuqiu always like this kind of setting. Even at the Divine Realms, their subordinate who is in a relationship are mostly in such a pairing, he didn't know if its a coincidence or what.
"We pay our respects to the lords, we are from the Guardian Life Clan."
The greetings brought Qiu mind back to the present. He gesture for them to get up.
Having all these people standing close by, he couldn't help but exclaim again at how tall they are. Although the others is not as tall as the leader, their height are also at the minimum of 1.90 meters.
Qiu also check their information qiuckly;
[Name: Wei Ran
Rank: Unique Supreme
Level: Black Iron 1 Star
Talent: Eternal Guardian
Skills: Oath of Guardianship, Barrier of Life, Reflection, Life sharing, Vitality Outburst.]
[Name: Guardian Life Clan
Rank: Unique Supreme
Level: Black Iron 1 Star
Talent: Guardian Souls
Skills:Barrier of Life, Reflection, Life sharing, Vitality Outburst.]
"Wow, even their talent and skill match, A-Xing, do you think they match well? One is damage dealer and the other is tank."
Qiu whisper enthusiastically to Xing.
It seem he forget that none of the people here are ordinary people. They can clearly heared what their lord said. But what can they do beside looking at each other helplessly.
Xing was also quite helpless with his Qiuqiu, but he didn't remind him, only response dotingly, agreeing.
After shipping people for a while, Qiu got back to normal. Remembering that they still have lot to do, he hurriedly order their people to assemble in front of their territory.
Then he lead A-Xing there as well. After arriving, he then order the troops and heroes to prepare themselves to participate in one of the challenges in today newbie lord trial.
As mentioned before, there is daily challenges throughout this trial. As for the first day, beside the known outside of the territory exploration, there is also a void trial that lords can choose to take part in.
Unlike the exploration, which is limited to only the first day, the void trial is available everyday throughout this newbies lord trial. But, only the first three days can the lords choose whether to join or not, after that it is mandatory to join.
And for the void trial, everyone can freely choose what difficulty they want to challenge. There are five difficulties in total; Normal, Medium, Hard, Nightmare, Hell.
"Everyone, we will start the void trial in five minutes. I believe with your strength, you can easily overcome this trial. Prepare well and end it as soon as possible, after this we still need to explore outside. Can you do it!?"
"Can!!!!" He get a resounding responses full of fighting spirit from their people, making him satisfied.
Watching all of them prepare, he also open the interface for the void trial, preparing to select the difficulty.
After the time is up, he gazes into A-Xing eyes, seeing the look full encouragement and approval in it, he firmly click the Hell level difficulty button, then start the void trial immediately.
Of course Xing knew what Qiu mean by that gaze, and he didn't care, if even the barracks that he custom made into the highest level allowed in this world can't even handle the hell level difficulty, then he might as well return them back and do all these trials himself.
It's because he remembers before in the Divine Realm, Qiu was interested for a while with the novel from the Mortal Realm with similar tropes, that he decided to do this.
Otherwise, he can become the troop and hero himself, why would he do such troublesome things? He hates trouble the most.
Anyway, if he does that, he can brought Qiuqiu to kill all the way to the pinnacle of this world, because no one is more powerful than him in this world.
Oohhh, you said he is alone and can't compare to thousands or billions of lords who also has billions of troops and people?
Please, in the face of absolute power, number is meaningless.
He only want Qiuqiu to be happy despite the misfortune befalling him.
....
"A-Xing, what do you think the reward for the hell difficulty void trial are? I have never heard or read it from book before. From what was written in books, quite a few people has successfully challenged this level, but they didn't told the rewards they got at all. I'm really curious 🤔, hmmm..."
Seeing Qiuqiu chattering so animatedly, Xing listen with a smile. After he finished, Xing said;
"No matter what it is, it must be of the highest level, only then can it deserves to be use by you."
Hearing that, Qiuqiu become so happy that the corners of his mouth can't go down at all, saying half amusedly, half teasingly;
"What a sweet mouth you have, hmm." while pinching A-Xing cheek softly.
"Of course!" Xing was so proud of himself.
Xing then step forward and whisper softly and teasingly in Qiu right ear, continuing;
"And, why don't you make wishes of what you want, I will grant it for you."
Qiuqiu face flushed slightly from A-Xing advance, feeling happy inside, he still can't help but complaint affectionately, "tsk, what a flirt."
Then he has no choice but to respond accordingly.
Qiuqiu qiuckly reach out his arm and wrapped it around A-Xing waist, pulling into his embrace.
Then, he proceed to whisper back into A-Xing ear, "Then, I want a place that can provided unlimited delicious food, so that I can EAT a lot, until I'm SATISFIED."
Qiu said while giving special emphasis on the word eat and satisfied. Who knows what he mean by that?...
Being tease back, of course Xing was shy. But he didn't step back and get himself out of Qiu embrace, instead he buried his face in the crook of Qiu neck.
Seeing that Xing was make shy by his teasing, Qiu chuckled happily, pulling Xing fully into a hug. Xing also hug him back.
