dc.description.abstractLuminous quasars at provide key insights into the early Universe. Their rarity necessitates wide-field multi-band surveys to efficiently separate them from the main astrophysical contaminants (i.e., ultracool dwarfs). To expand the sample of high- quasars, we conducted targeted selections using optical, infrared, and radio surveys, complemented by literature-based quasar candidate catalogs. In this paper, we report the discovery of \nqsos\ new quasars at (six at ), with between 25.4 and 27.0. We also present new spectra of six quasars we selected, but whose independent discovery has already been published in the literature. Three of the newly discovered quasars are strong radio emitters (L10erg s Hz). Among them, one source at exhibits typical blazar-like properties, including a flat radio spectrum, radio-loudness 1000, and multi-frequency variability. It is also detected by SRG/eROSITA X-ray telescope (ferg s cm). In addition, for seven quasars we present near-infrared spectroscopy and estimate the central black hole mass from their C and Mg broad emission this http URL masses (log[M]) and Eddington ratios () are consistent with other quasars reported in the literature. A quasar exhibits a velocity difference of approximately km s between the C and Mg emission lines, making it one of the most extreme C outflows currently known. Additionally, the sample includes three high-ionization broad absorption line quasars. One of these quasars shows potential evidence of an extremely fast outflow feature, reaching km s.
