Chapter 366: Chapter 189: Life-Saving Item! Get! (2)

Because he realized one thing, Chen Ran was dealing soul damage, and the damage was tremendously high. This isn’t something that can be solved with one or two pieces of equipment; it’s absolute suppression by Soul Strength.

In other words, even though his Level is far above Chen Ran’s, and his Attributes are also much higher than his opponent’s, the opponent’s determination and damage don’t even consider Attributes.

Noble soul damage!

No matter how many times he fights, he won’t win!

Ah, I’m truly impressed! How come the Support roles these days are so outrageous! Why do all these bizarre Support roles end up encountering me! No way, next time I see a Support, I must observe the situation more carefully! I won’t miss any tiny detail! Absolutely!

...

After the battle, Chen Ran walked with one hand in his pocket, wearing a bright and carefree smile. In his mind echoed the voice of Ye Mingqiu from their conversation during dinner yesterday.

’Why feel lost?’

’You are you, and battle is battle. What’s wrong with wanting to win in battle? Why suppress your true desires to fail? What benefits can you gain from failing? No, you’ll only continue to feel lost... lost, and then continue hesitating.

’The future is created by people. If you don’t take the first step, you can never reach the Other Shore.’

A crisp sound of footsteps emerged as Xiaoguang walked out from the lounge, gazing at his back from afar, asking with trembling eyes, "Who exactly are you?"

"Who?"

Chen Ran tilted his head, glanced at the girl he once had feelings for, and smiled with relief, saying, "I am me, the true Chen Ran."

After speaking, he didn’t explain further, nor did he want to continue explaining anything, simply striding away under the noon sun, as the shackles in his heart shattered, like a bird freed to fly in the sky, breaking free from bondage completely.

...

Two minutes later

"Bro, my meal card is out of money, can you help swipe it?" Chen Ran scratched his head awkwardly, feeling almost like he’d dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.

"Sure."

Ye Mingqiu swiped the meal card, accompanied by a crisp notification sound, showing the card’s balance.

Balance: 9566.5

"Wait, bro, why do you have so much money on your meal card? You don’t seem like the type to load up a lot at once, should be like me, just add a hundred or two each time..."

Chen Ran muttered to himself, looking at Ye Mingqiu and softly murmured, "Could it be that you’ve changed, you’re no longer who you used to be?"

"Cut it out! Quit playing awkwardly."

Ye Mingqiu displayed the card information with a smile, saying, "This is Tang Ruobing’s meal card."

"Then where is she?"

"Waiting for me to feed her when I get back."

"Why don’t you guys come to the cafeteria together, wouldn’t that be more convenient?" Chen Ran asked curiously.

"I got a Skill Book about Fusion techniques earlier; this skill is crucial for her, might even break through the limits, she’s been trying hard, filling a whole notebook with daily practice notes." Ye Mingqiu replied.

"Really diligent."

Chen Ran couldn’t help but marvel but soon continued to ask curiously, "By the way, how do you train your combat techniques? As far as I remember, you haven’t used any training privileges, nor contacted anyone for training? So why does your Level still rise so quickly?"

"It’s a hidden Talent. I can quickly acquire Skills experience in battle, elevating Specialty Levels." Ye Mingqiu answered with a smile.

"Your Talent is truly outrageous... Alright, I’m heading to eat now, bye-bye."

Chen Ran said casually, then carried his meal toward a secluded empty table. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Ye Mingqiu also returned to his exclusive training room with his packed meal, but if one observed carefully, they’d find that despite appearing to walk, his feet actually never touched the ground.

Like a ghost.

This is Ye Mingqiu practicing the Celestial Travel technique, where proficiency in this technique accumulates over daily practice, potentially reaching new heights, even surpassing the limits of a Skill Book to achieve stronger Effects.

’It would be great if it could be practiced in combat.’

Ye Mingqiu thought.

While daily practice is quite good, compared to this kind of training, he still prefers familiarizing himself with his Abilities through battle, understanding his body after mastering the Advanced breakthrough.

If possible, he hoped to challenge Tier Two experts; battling ordinary Tier One Spiritualists might already yield no training Effects.

....

"You mean you want to find a place for combat?" Tang Ruobing looked up to Ye Mingqiu while eating and asked.

"Yes, preferably finding Tier Two opponents, a bit stronger. Do you have any channels?" Ye Mingqiu asked.

"I do."

Tang Ruobing took out a Jade Pendant from the Storage Space and handed it to Ye Mingqiu, saying, "You keep this first."

Protective Jade Pendant

Type: Consumable

Effect: When receiving lethal damage, automatically gain a massive Shield lasting 10 seconds.

"Okay."

Ye Mingqiu accepted the life-saving item.

"There are plenty of battle channels. I suggest you go to the city center and look for warrants; inside are wanted criminals. Just hunt for Tier Two ones." Tang Ruobing suggested.

"That would work."

Ye Mingqiu nodded slowly.

For him, Tier Two fugitives aren’t difficult to handle; as long as you have life-saving items and Divine Majesty with you, nothing can go wrong.

Divine Majesty can directly reduce non-Legendary Level Spiritualist’s All Attributes and All Resistance by 90%, so even if the opponent is a Tier Two expert, the tier disparity is diminished, and they would still be significantly lower in All Attributes; this is the terror of God Traits.

For those with God Traits, cross-tier combat is quite simple.

Testing one’s strength doesn’t involve activating Divine Majesty, but if danger arises or they wish to stop testing, activating Divine Majesty kills instantly.

Of course, there’s also a problem; if the opponent is a Legendary Level Spiritualist, then Ye Mingqiu will find it difficult in cross-tier combat, as Divine Majesty’s reduction in Attributes will be significantly reduced against Legendary Level Spiritualists.

But theoretically, it’s unlikely Legendary Level Spiritualists will become fugitives, and even if wanted, they wouldn’t be put on display directly; the wanted authority would probably directly eliminate them, killing them with the fastest speed and highest intensity.

Spiritualists aren’t fools; generally, high-tier ones have undergone multiple worlds and seen many things. Their judgment is naturally more accurate, not giving enemies any chance.

The potential for growth of Legendary Level Spiritualists is simply too high; no one wants to raise a tiger to prey.

Either don’t warrant them, or kill directly, so Legendary Level Spiritualists will practically never appear on warrants, while Tier Two, at most, reaches Hero Level.

Soul Race

In an ancient and magnificent hall, an elder sits on a supreme chair, savoring the fragrance of tea, watching the boy on the phone onscreen beside him, and smiles, "Indeed, I didn’t expect you’d encounter such individuals even in school. Don’t rush; always stay cautious. Greed and desire are the tentacles of Hell, decisively sever them."

"Great-grandfather, I know all this; our brotherly relationship is quite good."

"That’s good."

"Moreover, you know what? After his exclusive team Buff advancement, it actually boosts Soul Potential, Body Basic Potential +2, Soul Potential +1, and also enhances dual Resistance, this guy is completely outrageous."

"Hmm?"

The elder puts down his teacup, his gaze gradually becomes serious, saying, "Only when Soul Potential surpasses other Attributes can such a situation arise. In other words, his Soul Potential is even higher than other Attributes, which is quite remarkable."

"Right? I’m thinking the same, not sure what exactly is happening, great-grandfather, do you have any guesses?" Chen Ran asked.

"I have some guesses but can’t be certain."

The elder gently sips his tea without providing a definite answer.

"Alright, but you know what? This fellow tricked the police with a false name while dealing with a cult before, fooling all the officials. They couldn’t register him even after checking for a long time, hahaha!" Chen Ran chuckled as he said.

"A false name?"

The elder showed curiosity, asking, "What false name did he use? Was it a pseudocode?"

"No, it’s a name."

"A name?"

"It seems to be called... Ye Zhaoxia."

"Hmm?!"
