Chapter 6: grants access to Han Xin's skills, allowing for knock-up and face-slapping attacks.
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Yes, my family's direct lineage martial soul has always been my first martial soul, the Blazing White Tiger."
Tang Yiran said excitedly, "A chosen one! No wonder Brother Tang specially recruited you. Remember, before you become a Title Douluo, don't add any spirit rings to your second martial soul. Wait until your first martial soul is cultivated to the Title Douluo level, then your second martial soul can be equipped with all ten-thousand-year spirit rings. At that time, even among Title Douluos, probably no one will be your match."
"Thank you, teacher, I understand." Lin Fan nodded and then put away his martial soul. Lin Fan knew this saying; Grandmaster had also told Tang San the same thing in Douluo Continent.
But Lin Fan wouldn't do that. He wanted to advance Divine Brush into a ten-thousand-year spirit skill and then attach it to the Shadow Battle Axe. After all, this skill originally belonged to King of Glory. If it were attached to his original martial soul, even with a ten-thousand-year soul ring and the advancement to Divine Stroke, it would never unleash the true power of Divine Stroke.
Becoming a Title Douluo would take forever. The situation of martial souls repelling each other wouldn't happen to Lin Fan. His Shadow Battle Axe and similar items were equipment from the system, not martial souls, and therefore wouldn't repel his first martial soul, the White Tiger.
Lin Fan planned to find a suitable ten-thousand-year soul ring for his Shadow Battle Axe when he broke through level 30 and searched for his third soul ring.
Tang Yiran, unaware of Lin Fan's plans, nodded and said, "Alright, Xiao Fan, I'll have someone arrange accommodation for you. Starting tomorrow, you'll train with the outer disciples. I'll guide you."
"Outer disciples?" Lin Fan wondered, but didn't voice his doubts.
Tang Yiran seemed to sense Lin Fan's confusion. She said aloofly, "Our Clear Sky Sect has branches in other places, but this is the headquarters. Every year, many Soul Masters want to join the Clear Sky Sect, but we don't accept them all. Every Soul Master must first undergo a rigorous selection process to become an outer disciple.
Only the elite among the outer disciples can become inner disciples. Becoming an inner disciple of the Clear Sky Sect means receiving the same treatment as our sect's direct martial soul inheritors, enjoying the best cultivation environment. Although you were brought back by Brother Tang Hao, if you can't even pass the outer disciple test, I won't let you directly enter the inner sect."
Lin Fan said, "Don't worry, Teacher Yiran, I will definitely follow the sect's rules."
That evening, Lin Fan was assigned to the Haotian Sect's disciple dormitory. He had a single room, which Tang Yiran was considerate of him. Most of the other outer sect disciples shared rooms in pairs or threes. That night, Lin Fan was cultivating and discovered that after his battle with Qian Xunji, he had broken through to level 29, only one step away from level 30.
Two hours later, Lin Fan suddenly opened his eyes.
Level 30, finally broken through.
As long as he found a suitable third spirit ring, he could become a Soul Master.
"It's just a pity that the original spirit of this body is a bit poor."
Lin Fan couldn't help but complain. Suddenly, a voice came from his mind.
"Ding, congratulations on leveling up, you are given one chance to draw a prize. Do you want to start the prize draw now?"
"Draw a prize." Lin Fan immediately became excited.
"Ding ding... Congratulations, master, you have obtained a King's Crystal."
Damn, a King's Crystal?
Not a Glory Crystal?
Lin Fan was a little disappointed. Could he exchange this thing for Han Xin?
"King's Crystals originate from Honor of Kings. Their function is to upgrade different Martial Souls and equipment, and can also be used to exchange for skills and attributes. You can check the King's Shop."
After entering the King's Shop, Lin Fan actually saw that he could exchange for Han Xin's skills, including his passive skill and his first, second, and third skills.
In addition, there were also Guiguzi's skills and Taiyi and Nezha's complete skills.
"So many... But Lin Fan discovered that one King's Crystal can only be used to exchange for two ordinary skills or one ultimate skill."
The ordinary skills are Han Xin's first and second skills, which can be obtained with just one King's Crystal. To exchange for Han Xin's third skill, another King's Crystal is needed. The same applies to the skills of the other heroes.
"Which one should I exchange for? Right." Lin Fan discovered that the function of the King's Crystals seems to be able to upgrade equipment as well. He wondered if he could upgrade the Shadow Axe.
He quickly summoned the Shadow Axe, but found that the Shadow Axe upgrade prompt stated that upgrading this equipment requires one Glory Crystal. A second upgrade requires five Glory Crystals. Three advancements require twenty Glory Crystals, after which Heavenly Dao Awakening can be unlocked…
It actually requires Glory Crystals?
Can these King Crystals be used to advance one's Martial Soul?
Thinking this, Lin Fan released his original Martial Soul, "Blazing White Tiger."
Instantly, a majestic tiger's roar echoed through the room.
At this moment, the voice of the system Ling'er suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Master, the King's Crystal can upgrade your Martial Soul's Blazing White Tiger! The Glory Crystal is used to upgrade high-level Martial Souls and equipment, while the King's Crystal can be used to upgrade ordinary-level Martial Souls. The upgrade interface is now open! Master, are you sure you want to upgrade?"
"This…" Lin Fan thought for a moment. He could draw skills later anyway, but he couldn't change his original Martial Soul. Fine, he'd upgrade his Martial Soul then.
So, Lin Fan said in his mind, "Confirm upgrade."
*Sizzle…*
Lin Fan instantly discovered that his Martial Soul had changed, transforming from a small white tiger into a tiger with sharp teeth and its entire body shimmering with purple light.
"Congratulations, Master! You have completed your Martial Soul advancement. The Blazing White Tiger has reached Tier 2, now the Purple Flame Tiger. Tier 3 requires five King's Crystals to advance to the Ice Flame White Tiger. Further advancements require Glory Crystals… Master's Martial Soul is special; each advancement grants a new flame…"
"So powerful! Flames… could it be a strange fire…?"
Lin Fan clearly saw that his Martial Soul, the Blazing Claw White Tiger, was much more imposing. Its purple flames were incredibly cool; this was truly the King of Beasts.
Ling'er's sweet voice rang out again.
"Master, this is your first time drawing crystals. Ling'er is giving you a special reward: Ruthless Charge. Alright, Master, see you next time we draw!"
"Wait, give me more!" Lin Fan thought to himself, but Ling'er didn't respond. Even with the extra skill, Lin Fan was still a little unhappy. Ling'er clearly had the authority to give him more things, yet she didn't give him more. Where was he going to get all those Glory Crystals for later Martial Soul advancements.
"Alright, let's check the skills..."
Lin Fan quickly checked the skills. "Ruthless Charge," that's right, it's Han Xin's first skill.
Ruthless Charge: A skill from Han Xin in King of Glory. It allows him to charge towards a designated area, dealing damage and creating a shockwave that knocks targets into the air for two seconds. A second charge can be initiated within five seconds of the initial charge, but the knock-up time becomes 0.8 seconds.
This skill can be upgraded, becoming even more powerful.
Special Note: During the charge, the speed is ten times the current speed; it's not a teleportation like a flash skill.
This knock-up is not a stun; the opponent can neutralize it. If the opponent's defensive soul power is higher than the impact of the knock-up, the knock-up will not take effect.
Overall, this skill is quite strong. Against opponents with weak defense, or even those with far greater soul power, as long as the opponent hasn't had time to defend, it can knock them into the air.
Lin Fan was very pleased with his gains that night. His first martial soul evolved into the Purple Flame Fire Tiger, and he also gained another skill.
Lin Fan arrived at the training square where the outer disciples were located early. There weren't many disciples there, only a few hundred, indicating that the Clear Sky Sect had extremely strict requirements for its outer disciples.
At this moment, Lin Fan didn't recognize a single person on the square and was somewhat bored. Suddenly, a fat man looked in his direction and shouted, "You kid, I've never seen you before! Where did you come from?"
As the fat man spoke, seven or eight disciples gathered around him, all male disciples around fifteen or sixteen years old. In the Douluo Continent, fifteen was considered adulthood.
"I'm a newly joined outer disciple of the Clear Sky Sect. My name is Lin Fan," Lin Fan said politely.
"Oh, newbie, huh?" Unexpectedly, the fat man grabbed his collar and said, "My name is Niu Shuai, Niu as in bullish, Shuai as in handsome. I'm the boss here. If you want to survive in the outer sect, you'd better give me some respect first."
"Oh", some respect, huh..."
Lin Fan immediately punched the fat man in the face. Before the fat man could react, he screamed and flew away, landing face-first on the plaza floor. Lin Fan then walked over to the fat man, plopped down on his back, and said leisurely, "There's not even a place to sit here. Perfect, I need a cushion. Sorry to make do."
Although Lin Fan had only just reached level 30 and hadn't summoned the Shadow Battle Axe yet, the attributes of the Shadow Battle Axe and the Famous Sword were already attached to him. The combined attack power provided by these two pieces of equipment exceeded 1000 points.
Lin Fan didn't know the exact amount of 1000 points of attack power converted to Soul Power in Douluo Continent, but it was definitely over level 10.
In other words, although Lin Fan was currently level 30, his attack attributes already surpassed those of a level 41 Soul Master.
"You fucking want to die..."the fat man roared, his entire body erupting with soul power. Two bull horns suddenly sprouted from his head, and his body grew even larger, three different colored soul rings flashing around him.
He possesses both Bibi Dong and Ah Yin, two women locked in a love-hate relationship, ultimately becoming a family.
Tang San will become the protagonist's daughter; watch Tang San and Qian Renxue... their love-hate relationship unfold.
