121 Enhanced Skills
Su Wan was feeling really disappointed when Shi Linglong arrived.
“Wanwan, are you alright?”
Shi Linglong had run all the way to Su Wan’s territory. She was panting.
As soon as she found out that the terrifying power was coming from her friend’s territory, she rushed over.
“Um… I’m fine!” Su Wan wasn’t prepared. She wondered why Shi Linglong had suddenly come to her territory.
“I am so glad you are okay,” said Shi Linglong. “Wanwan, I saw a terrifying thing in the sky just now. I don’t know where it went. It was above your territory!”
Su Wan finally understood. Shi Linglong had seen the Ultimate Dark Dragon Knight. She had hurried over because she was afraid for Su Wan’s safety.
Su Wan wanted to tell her friend about the recent developments but…
“Wanwan, which b*stard sent something like that to harm you?” Shi Linglong was fuming. “Really, it’s not done! It ran away after a roar! What a wimp!” Shi Linglong cursed at it.
Su Wan was now in an awkward situation. She could see that her friend was very angry and dissatisfied with the Ultimate Dark Dragon Knight. If she told her that it was actually her troop, how would her friend react?
So, Su Wan pretended like she didn’t know anything about it. Xu Yuan was asleep, but the White Dragon Saint snickered. It was amusing for him to see Su Wan in a bind.
“Anyway, it’s okay as long as you’re fine, Wanwan.” Said Si Linglong. “The Grand Finals for the Inter-Campus Tournament is not very far now. You have to rest well.”
After making sure Su Wan was safe, Shi Linglong left. As they were leaving, the Flower Fairy glanced up at the sky and saw that several Dark Dragon Knights circled the sky.
The Flower Fairy wondered if the Ultimate Dark Dragon Knight they had seen was somehow related to Su Wan. Maybe it had something to do with Xu Yuan…
‘It’s suspicious…,’ thought the Flower Fairy. She was sure it was related to Xu Yuan, but Su Wan had denied any involvement. So, the Flower Fairy kept quiet.
She was scared of Xu Yuan and the White Dragon Saint. Whenever the Flower Fairy stepped into Su Wan’s territory, she felt like she was entering a minefield. She trembled in fear.
Shi Linglong was in a good mood after finding her friend safe and sound.
Time passed, and it was finally the day for the finals.
Xu Yuan had also recovered fully. ‘The Grand Final for the Inter-Campus Tournament… I feel like it is not as simple as we think it is.’
He recalled the information he had regarding the finals of the tournament. He wanted to make his own preparations.
‘The one who could absorb the God Core could become a Mythical Lord… The competition venue is supposed to be on the back of an ancient beast that the Dark Screen is trying to revive…’
So far, that was all the information he had. The Dark Screen wanted to revive the ancient beast by taking advantage of the tournament. He felt that the Grand Final of the Inter-Campus Tournament was like a dangerous storm that was brewing quietly.
Xu Yuan considered his own situation. ‘I haven’t used any of my skill enhancement points after I reached Level 60…’
Xu Yuan had a total of three skill enhancement points. He wanted to carefully consider the skill that was worth enhancing. He thought about the new skills he had achieved after he reached Level 60.
He hadn’t paid much attention to it before, but now he felt like he had to make full use of every skill.
[Dark Destructive Light: summons a huge black pillar of light from the sky and penetrates the earth. All enemies within the pillar of light will be annihilated. Damage dealt is (spirit X5).]
[Original Field: summons a force field. The field can block most attacks.]
‘I guess I should enhance the Original Field,’ thought Xu Yuan.
He didn’t really need it that much, but he was afraid his Overlord would die if he didn’t have a shield to protect her. The fight would involve a mythical, ancient beast at that. It would likely possess some power that could bypass the rules of the Overlord Plane and kill the Lord permanently.
The Original Field would indeed be of use. If something happened, he could summon the Original Field around Su Wan. After she was protected, he could fight without restraint.
The existence of a Lord had its advantages, but it also had disadvantages. In most cases, a Lord was very beneficial to the hero. The Lord would always share experience points with the hero and revive them if necessary. Having a Lord meant having many lives to spare.
However, when the hero was stronger than the Lord, the drawback arose. The hero would then be held back by the Lord because the hero had to think about keeping the Lord alive while trying to fight.
Xu Yuan used one of the skill enhancement points to enhance the Original Field ability.
[Original Field LVL 2: summons a force field that can withstand most attacks. The force field will form a space of its own, and anyone inside it can escape into an alternate dimension to avoid damage.]
“Not bad!” Xu Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
The Original Field at Level 2 exceeded his expectations. Even if the force field can withstand a lot of damage, it was inevitable for it to break at some point. At that time, being able to escape into another dimension was pretty useful.
Xu Yuan still had two skill enhancement points left. He thought hard. ‘Maybe I should strengthen my attack abilities…’
Xu Yuan realized that the attack abilities he had were rather simple. The only truly destructive abilities were the Demonic Dragon’s Breath and Dark Destructive Light. He decided to enhance the Dark Destructive Light Ability.
[Dark Destructive Light LVL 2: summons a huge black pillar of light from the sky and penetrates the earth, annihilating all enemies within the pillar of light. Damage dealt is (spirit x 10). The Dark Destructive Light has the ability to lock space. Once it locks onto an enemy, it can bombard the enemy across space.]
