Chapter 105: Do You Know How I Spent the Last Half Month?
🕑 Added 2024-03-20 19:31:06 +0000 UTCFeeling the abnormal rate of Soul Power depletion within his body, Su Wen was stunned.
Previously, he had been focusing solely on learning the Fiery Heavenly Sun, without paying attention to this aspect.
Or rather, his outward performance was that of a level 39 Spirit Elder; in front of Huo Tianyang, a Spirit Douluo, he had no intention of displaying any level of Spirit Ancestor proficiency.
This led to him neglecting the fact that while he was focusing on learning, his Soul Power consumption exceeded that of a Spirit Elder.
It wasn't the consumption from practicing the Fiery Heavenly Sun that bothered him, but rather Su Wen's own consumption in maintaining the Replication Spirit Skill.
"This Fiery Heavenly Sun consumes so much?"
Previously, Su Wen could subconsciously assume that the consumption was due to his replication of this Spirit Skill, and he had been continuously using its Spirit Skill. But now, he realized that it was the maintenance of the replication of this Martial Spirit that consumed so much.
Descending from the air, he decided not to continue flying towards Godwind City.
Upon careful consideration, he gradually understood the reason.
"If I keep maintaining the replication of this Fiery Heavenly Sun, I'll be able to unlock Uncle Yang's fifth Spirit Skill after breaking through to Spirit King."
Su Wen blinked.
Is it really such a good thing?
Huo Tianyang is a strong attack-oriented Spirit Douluo, and all of his Spirit Skills are top-quality fire attribute Spirit Skills.
When he mentioned that what Huo Tianyang needed was the Fire Demon Overlord Body, it was just a conceptual term, a collective term for similar Spirit Skills.
Su Wen replaced it with the Fire Demon Style.
While Huo Tianyang's fifth Spirit Skill is the Fire Dragon Body, which is the best among similar types of Spirit Skills.
With multiple experiences, Su Wen believes that developing and perfecting the Fire Demon Style will be smoother.
There is also Huo Tianyang's sixth Spirit Skill, Flame Master, a top-tier Spirit Skill in elemental control.
Perhaps lacking Su Wen's finesse in Fire Element Control, but very dominant in macro control and manipulation of flames.
"With Uncle Yang's Violent Fire Dragon Martial Spirit, it seems I won't need to rely too much on other sources for the development of fire elements in the future."
So, aside from some functional fire attribute Martial Spirits and Spirit Skills, Su Wen can abandon the Martial Spirits he replicated.
First is Huo Wushuang's Martial Spirit, which is of no use, so he abandoned it.
Huo Wu's Defying Flame Ring can indeed be kept.
As for the Flame Flower Martial Spirit's Flame Clone, Multiple Clones, and Flame Exchange...
Su Wen pondered the various functions of many Spirit Skills. When it came to the three major Spirit Skills of the Flame Flower Martial Spirit, his thoughts paused for a moment, then his eyes widened.
It seems that the refinement of the Raging Inferno could potentially incorporate these three major Spirit Skills of the Flame Flower Martial Spirit.
"If this integration succeeds, wouldn't I be able to freely exchange within the domain of the Raging Inferno?"
Previously, Su Wen had found limitations in Flame Exchange and had some disdain for it, but now he thought differently.
Su Wen noted down this idea as a key focus for himself in refining the Raging Inferno in the future, continuing to sift through the many Martial Spirits he replicated.
The Fire Star Martial Spirit will be retained.
And the semi-elementalized Spirit Skills will also be retained.
"Everything else is abandoned."
Su Wen cut off some of the Soul Power outputs from the Replicated Martial Spirits, immediately feeling a slight reduction in his burden.
"The Fiery Heavenly Sun still occupies too much weight."
Developing the Replication Spirit Skill is still a long and arduous journey.
The Emperor Team departed from Blazing City, heading towards Godwind City located northeast of the Heaven Dou Empire. Along the way, they also visited various small and medium-sized cities' Great Spirit Arenas to broaden their knowledge and experiences.
It took them seven days.
Su Wen, on his own, did not sacrifice gaining knowledge for the sake of traveling faster. On the contrary, he not only visited the Great Spirit Arenas but also recorded the terrain, natural scenery, almost like a tourist along the way.
As a result, even though traveling alone would have been more convenient, it took him a full ten days to reach Godwind City.
And at this moment, the Emperor Team was only one day away from leaving Godwind City.
"Xiaowen, why are you so slow?"
"Haha, I ran into some interesting Spirit Masters on the way, which delayed us a bit,"
Ning Rongrong said with a look of grievance, pulling Su Wen to complain, "Brother Xiaowen, do you know how I spent this month and a half without you?"
Yu Feng and the others rolled their eyes.
They knew very well how this little girl had spent her time on the road.
With an extra dedicated support member, she only needed to observe and learn tactics without engaging in battles.
They enjoyed eating, drinking, and having fun along the way, making the journey quite enjoyable.
And now she was crying about it.
"Huh? Well, tonight I'll take you flying," Su Wen chuckled, "Since we're challenging Spirit Ancestor-level teams this time, as usual, I'll arrange an opponent for you."
"What?" Ning Rongrong exclaimed in dismay, looking at Su Wen with a pitiful expression, "Brother Xiaowen, don't do this to me."
"Don't worry, I promised Uncle Ning that I'll protect you," Su Wen said as he patted Ning Rongrong's head.
"But tonight, I am indeed planning to challenge the Spirit Ancestor Team."
"What!?" Qin Ming exclaimed in astonishment.
Previously, while in Blazing City, he had mentioned to Su Wen and Ning Rongrong that they would try the local Spirit Elder Team for the first three days, and if they felt confident, they would then challenge the Spirit Ancestor Teams or engage in a 2v2 challenge against Spirit Ancestor combinations.
However, at that time, his mention of challenging the Spirit Ancestor Teams was just a joke.
Challenging two Spirit Ancestors was already quite difficult.
"Xiaowen, even though it's not a life-or-death battle, there are still risks in combat. The two of you challenging the Spirit Ancestor Teams is absolutely out of the question!" Qin Ming firmly refused.
"Teacher Qin Ming, have you forgotten about my training at Blazing Academy?" Su Wen replied.
Qin Ming frowned, looking at Su Wen with an uncertain expression.
Su Wen hadn't hidden anything at the time, mentioning that he was learning the ultimate techniques of Blazing Academy's Dean, Huo Tianyang.
However, in just this short of time, could Su Wen have mastered it?
Mastering the ultimate technique of a renowned Spirit Douluo wasn't something that could be achieved easily.
Qin Ming still believed that Su Wen was overconfident. He had followed Su Wen throughout his registration for the competition and had not allowed him to register for matches challenging the Spirit Ancestor teams.
However, Su Wen still registered for two matches: one 2v2 challenge against Spirit Ancestor combinations, and one team battle against a Silver Spirit Elder Team.
"Xiaowen, do you still need to go to Godwind Academy?"
Back at the hotel, Qin Ming, who was getting ready to hit the road again, received another leave request from Su Wen.
There was a trace of helplessness mixed in his speechlessness.
Why did this Spirit Fighter training feel like Su Wen was visiting one Academy after another?
First, go to Blazing Academy, then go to Godwind Academy.
However, with the token from Blazing Academy's Dean, Su Wen's visit to Godwind Academy is likely to be fruitful, and there's no reason for Qin Ming to stop him.
"Alright, you can depart directly from Godwind City then. I estimate you'll catch up with us when we reach Elephant City," Qin Ming took out a map and sketched out the next route for the Emperor Team, which was filled with small to medium-sized cities.
He instructed Su Wen not to follow this route again and head straight to Elephant City.
The five major Elemental Academies, located in three major cities along the route, were designated for Su Wen's training in this Spirit Fighter training session.
"Okay!"
Separated from the team once again, Su Wen arrived at Godwind Academy just outside Godwind City.
