Fu Yuan then turned his gaze to the Character Status section of the system interface. With a thought, the Character Status window expanded.
What the system interface now displayed was Fu Yuan's current Character Status.
Name: Fu Yuan, Fu Ziyuan. Gender: Male. Age: Nineteen. Compatible character template: Fu Hua. Also known as "Vermilion Knight," "Divine Land's Flat," and "a 54,000+-year-old girl." The host has activated character templates... Valkyrie: Vermilion Knight Valkyrie: Vermilion Knight [Amplifier Core] Equipped weapon: None Equipped stigmata: None
Seeing the "None" displayed under weapons and stigmata, Fu Yuan let out the lament of the Great Chieftain of Africa.
"Ah, I'm so pathetic."
Pathetic? No, no, no... Fu Yuan, who had activated two character templates, was not pathetic at all.
After activating the Valkyrie: Vermilion Knight character template, Fu Yuan had obtained Vermilion Knight's six forms of the Inch-Heart Fist Style.
The six forms of the Inch-Heart Fist Style were Inch Force: Chaotic Thunder, Inch Force: Thunderbolt, Inch Force: Rock Break, Inch Force: Landslide, Inch Force: Cloud Mist, and finally...
Inch Force: Heaven Splitter!
?(^?^*)
It was not just the Inch-Heart Fist Style. The Valkyrie: Vermilion Knight character template also came with Great Void Sword Qi.
Great Void Sword Qi was the ultimate art of Divine Land's Flat... no, the Divine Land Immortal Fu Hua. It possessed the five aggregates of Heart, Form, Intent, Soul, and Spirit, and was an ultimate art refined to an extreme degree and specialized for true qi.
Among them, "Heart" and "Intent" were internal cultivation methods used to cultivate true qi. Fu Yuan, sitting cross-legged in the residence, was cultivating true qi.
"Form" and "Soul," meanwhile, were sword techniques.
The "Spirit" aggregate, the fifth aggregate, was the most powerful and the hardest to cultivate.
Because Great Void Sword Qi could forge a sword through the spirit.
Yet to truly forge a sword through the spirit—to let sword qi arise from the heart and make all things into swords in one's hand—one had to comprehend the fifth aggregate, Sword Spirit.

Daily Quests: Queen Scáthach of the Land of Shadows...
The two ultimate arts of the Vermilion Knight were physical techniques that surpassed human limits, which was why outsiders passed them down by word of mouth as "Immortal Techniques."
Great Void Sword Qi could shift between yin and yang and command the power of the five elements.
The Inch-Heart Fist Style could split the heavens with soft force turned into a fist, and shatter the earth with strength as gentle as a breeze.
This was the origin of the tale: "The Vermilion Knight breathed in and preserved truth, circulating yin and yang through supreme Immortal Techniques and wielding the power of the five elements for her own use."
In truth, Great Void Sword Qi was merely a profound martial art created by the Vermilion Knight to turn Honkai Energy into something she could use.
It could gradually transform the entire human body into a vessel and conduit for Honkai Energy, increasing an ordinary person's capacity to contain and wield Honkai Energy while avoiding the associated risks.
Great Void Sword Qi would turn the body into channels for true qi. Once the cultivated Sword Heart and Sword Form reached mastery, one could draw true qi from the surroundings and let it flow freely through the meridians.
The first aggregate, Sword Heart, tempered the body to a strength far beyond that of ordinary people.
The second aggregate, Sword Intent, breathed in and circulated true qi, transforming it into offensive power.
The third aggregate, Sword Form, was one of the most profound martial arts under heaven.
The fourth aggregate, Sword Soul, was the essence of swordsmanship.
The path of the sword held endless changes; the sword itself was merely an object to rely upon.
After comprehending the Soul aggregate, one could wield every weapon in the world as though wielding a sword, no longer needing to be bound by sword forms when attacking. Only upon reaching such a realm could one be said to have mastered swordsmanship.
The fifth aggregate, Sword Spirit, was fundamentally the shaping and extension of Honkai Energy. It allowed one to forge a sword through the spirit, creating a blade out of thin air.
However, the first aggregate, Sword Heart, was the entry-level aggregate and also the hardest to cultivate aside from the fifth aggregate, Sword Spirit. Yet through the Honkai System, Fu Yuan had activated the Valkyrie: Vermilion Knight character template.
Thus, he had obtained the rudiments of the Inch-Heart Fist Style and Great Void Sword Qi, allowing him to grasp the Vermilion Knight's two ultimate arts without arduous cultivation.
But what the system gave Fu Yuan was ultimately external. If he wished to make these two ultimate arts his own, he had to continuously cultivate and comprehend them for himself.
That was why Fu Yuan sat cross-legged facing the rising sun every morning. He silently recited the Sword Heart Incantation in his heart, breathing in and circulating true qi to temper his Sword Heart.
Since activating the Valkyrie: Vermilion Knight character template, Fu Yuan had never missed a single day of Sword Heart training.
Fu Yuan closed the Character Status window he had opened, then opened Daily Quests in the system interface. He had been absorbed in cultivating his Sword Heart that morning, and Tohsaka Rin had come to visit as well, so he had completely forgotten to check what today's Daily Quest was.
Daily Quest: Accept the training of Queen Scáthach of the Land of Shadows and gain the recognition of Queen Scáthach of the Land of Shadows. Reward: Shadow Knight: Moon Halo character template, 2,800 crystals. Begin the Daily Quest now?
"What? Why is today's Daily Quest so generous?" Fu Yuan stared in astonishment at the words displayed on the system interface.
This Daily Quest was truly generous. Its reward was actually a character template—and it was the Shadow Knight: Moon Halo that Fu Yuan had dreamed of obtaining.
That character template cost 10,000 crystals in the system shop. It was outrageously expensive.
Now, he could obtain Shadow Knight: Moon Halo simply by completing this Daily Quest.
And that was not all. The crystal reward for this Daily Quest was not a stingy five crystals, but 2,800 crystals—enough for a ten-pull supply drop!
Then the astonishment on Fu Yuan's face faded, because he knew that the richer the rewards of a mission issued by the Honkai System, the harder it would be to complete.
And the content of this Daily Quest was to gain the recognition of Queen Scáthach of the Land of Shadows.
