Chapter 26: Second Spirit Skill Effect
🕑 Added 2024-02-11 05:13:42 +0000 UTCSu Wen glanced at Bai Yuan.
Bai Yuan had been warned by Salas not to spread Su Wen's theories, and Su Wen had also been informed of this.
However, can the absorption of the thousand years old's Second Ring by Su Wen itself be exposed?
Bai Yuan nodded at Su Wen. Sooner or later, it will be exposed. It definitely cannot be hidden.
Xiao Zhan ignored the eye contact between Su Wen and Bai Yuan, waiting for Su Wen to release the Martial Spirit.
Taking a deep breath, Su Wen reached out his right hand, and a simple book emitting a brilliant light, with intricate purple patterns spread throughout, appeared above his right hand.
On the cover of the book, there was an exquisite pupil pattern.
Looking at Su Wen's Martial Spirit appearance, Xiao Zhan had already shown a pleased expression.
'Okay. The quality will definitely not be low!'
However, as Su Wen's feet rose with a yellow and purple Spirit Ring each, his expression also froze.
He widened his eyes, carefully counting Su Wen's Spirit Ring numbers, recalling Bai Yuan's mention of Su Wen's Soul Power level a couple of days ago, and then recalling his own understanding of colors.
He doubted everything he understood, until finally confirming that his perception hadn't gone wrong, and his memory wasn't confused.
'Su Wen's second Spirit Ring is a thousand years old Spirit Ring?'
"Hiss~~~
"
Xiao Zhan's gaze suddenly turned towards Bai Yuan.
"Old Bai, what are you doing? Ordinary Spirit Hall members aside, can Su Wen's situation be considered ordinary? Why did you ask me to introduce him to the academy?"
Bai Yuan wore a helpless expression and said, "Su Wen's situation is very special. His enrollment in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was permitted by His Royal Highness the Supreme Pontiff. Old Xiao, although you are a teacher at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, you also belong to the Spirit Hall. The Supreme Pontiff's orders cannot be violated. The news about Su Wen's origin from the Spirit Hall cannot be disclosed."
Su Wen can possess a thousand years old second ring, but we cannot expose his background from the Spirit Hall.
Otherwise, what would be the intention behind such a genius entering the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? It's bound to arouse some suspicions.
Xiao Zhan felt somewhat helpless.
Only after regaining his senses did he remember that Su Wen possessed a Book Martial Spirit.
'A Book Martial Spirit with a thousand years old second ring? How did he manage to do it?'
Xiao Zhan took a deep breath, deciding not to delve deeper into his thoughts.
After the discussion about Su Wen's thousand years old second ring passed, Xiao Zhan curiously observed Su Wen's Martial Spirit.
"What are your two Spirit Skills?" Xiao Zhan asked.
Bai Yuan also seemed curious.
He had discussions with Su Wen, but those were about the theories of Spirit Master cultivation. He knew nothing about Su Wen's Spirit Skills.
"My First Spirit Skill is Enhancement, capable of enhancing my Martial Spirit comprehensively," Su Wen replied.
Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up.
'Not bad!'
Although having combat capabilities for the Book Martial Spirit doesn't serve much purpose, it won't hinder anything either.
On the contrary, if subsequent Spirit Rings can enable his Book Martial Spirit to possess Battle-type spirit skills, then this First Spirit Skill can provide comprehensive amplification.
'Pretty good, pretty good.'
"And what about your Second Spirit Skill?"
Xiao Zhan was curious about Su Wen's Spirit Skill acquired through the absorption of a thousand years old Spirit Ring across levels.
"My Second Spirit Skill is Control, controlling the power of wind and fire elements," Su Wen explained.
Strictly speaking, the effect of Su Wen's Second Spirit Skill isn't the control of the two major elements, but Spiritual control, capable of manipulating the natural energies of wind and fire within a certain range using his Spiritual Power.
There are factors such as the Triple-Eyed Phantom Fox ability to construct illusions with Spiritual Power, as well as Su Wen's control over his own body, that collectively enabled him to possess this Second Spirit Skill.
It can be said that the Second Spirit Skill, to a certain extent, widens his range of talents.
Of course, all of this requires Su Wen to experiment and develop.
As for his current control over the wind and fire elements, it is more accurately described as a derivative ability resulting from the combination of this Spirit Skill with his innate talents.
The Triple-Eyed Phantom Fox itself also possesses the bloodline of the Fire Cloud Fox and the Swift Wind Fox, and while undergoing a Spiritual attribute mutation, she also mastered these two major attributes.
In other words, she is primarily a Spiritual attribute, while simultaneously possessing the secondary attributes of wind and fire.
After absorbing the Second Spirit Ring, although Su Wen's Martial Spirit did not inherently possess the attributes of wind and fire, nor does it have Spirit Skills related to these attributes, the transformation from the Triple-Eyed Phantom Fox's Spirit Ring made his Martial Spirit more compatible with these two elements and allowed him to gain some affinity towards them.
Su Wen merely utilizes the Spiritual control of the Second Spirit Skill and his own exceptionally strong sensory talents to manifest this affinity.
Su Wen did not fully disclose his situation.
It's not a matter of trust, but Spirit Skills are inherently private, much like how a normal person wouldn't disclose the color of their underwear to others.
Providing a rough overview is advantageous for Su Wen to learn practical things from Xiao Zhan in the future.
"Control over both wind and fire elements?" Xiao Zhan's eyes brimmed with excitement.
"Are you sure?" He grasped Su Wen's shoulder, staring into Su Wen's eyes.
"Yeah."
It must be said that Su Wen's current situation aligns very well with Xiao Zhan!
Not only is he exceptionally talented in cultivation, but the two Spirit Rings he currently possesses also pose no issues, and the direction of his development aligns with Xiao Zhan's.
Control over the fire element.
"Control over elements with the Spiritual attribute?" Bai Yuan pondered, surprised that Su Wen had obtained such a Spirit Skill.
If that's the case, then Su Wen's second Spirit Ring is verry cost effective.
Regardless of the benefits brought by its age, whether it's the enhancement of his Spiritual Power and the corresponding traits mutated from his Martial Spirit by the primary Spiritual attribute Spirit Ring, or the acquisition of this Spirit Skill that can completely lead Su Wen into the path of a Battle Spirit Master, they are all top-notch.
After spending five days in the library reviewing all the materials, Bai Yuan, as a theoretical scholar, had long speculated from their conversations about the characteristics of his Mutated Martial Spirit.
"No wonder you're so persistent about becoming a Battle Spirit Master."
While ideals can certainly be firm, having already realized part of those ideals undoubtedly makes one even more resolute in pursuing them.
"Su Wen, you're excellent!" Xiao Zhan also regained his composure. "Since you've entered the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to study under my guidance, I will do my best to teach you techniques regarding controlling the fire element through books."
He didn't mention apprenticeship.
Su Wen is now under the eye of the Supreme Pontiff of the Spirit Hall. He can't act on his own, lest he fall into certain vortexes.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhan."
"Xiaowen, focus on your cultivation under my guidance. You don't need to pay attention to other students at school or interact with them," Xiao Zhan reminded.
The Heaven Dou Royal Academy is truly a place full of sopiled brats. Except for the team Qin Ming currently leads which had specially recruited geniuses by the academy, there are few who earnestly practice. They all form cliques and factions within the academy and keep flexing on each other without any real results.
Xiao Zhan worried that Su Wen's mentality might be affected by them.
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhan, I understand the situation at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy." Su Wen doesn't want to attract attention. When he was at the Nuoding Primary Spirit Master Academy, apart from a fight with that Boss Xiao, he was basically invisible, hardly making his presence known.
He knows what's more important.
"Okay, let's go. I'll take you to meet the three Board of Education members first."
