"Fierce Beast? Are you referring to Biochemical Beasts?" questioned the Artifact Spirit, "Coming from the Thirty-seventh Recruitment Point isn't too far, and there are patrols maintaining order along the way. Has a beast riot occurred again? Do you have evidence?"
"Look, this is the Celestial Secret Recording Disc, and I just recorded a battle with a Tier Seven Great Demon." Wang Shouzhe took out the Celestial Secret Recording Disc and played it for the Artifact Spirit, "That place is only three thousand miles from here. Do you think I could have passed through it while in the Qi Refining Realm? I had to cultivate to fight my way here."
Actually, being late and not recognized as an Elite Soldier was a concern Wang Shouzhe had been worry about. Therefore, he came up with reasons and evidence as an excuse.
Normally, Artifact Spirits are quite procedural; if there's punishment for being late, there should definitely be exceptions.
