Soul Ring Release Device

Because everyone had Innate Full Soul Power, Ye Han had originally planned to take everyone to find Soul Rings that afternoon, but a system task disrupted his plans.

Side Quest triggered: Love Training

Task Description: As the owner of the system, how could you be the weakest? Work hard, young man! Reach Todo's level of physical fitness within one month.

Task Reward: Soul Ring Release Device

Seeing this task, the corner of Ye Han's mouth twitched slightly. Todo was definitely the person with the third-highest physical fitness in the entire team.

As for the first two, there was no question about it: Lia, who possessed the Red Dragon Heart, and Honjou Kaede, who had put all her points into defense. Those two were absurdly overpowered, while Todo was simply a training fanatic.

"I feel like you really don't want me to get this reward!" Ye Han complained unhappily.

Please rest assured, Host. The tasks issued by the system are never impossible to complete. This system also has no punishments, and the Host may choose to abandon the task.

Ye Han knew the system meant well, but everything needed some motivation. "System, what exactly is this Soul Ring Release Device?"

The characters summoned by the Host all possess compatible Soul Ring configurations. It can directly generate the most suitable Soul Skills.

Hearing that, Ye Han nearly shouted in shock. Then he said excitedly, "So it can create Soul Rings out of thin air? Isn't that way too ridiculous? What if people mistake me for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and kill me?!"

Please do not indulge in wild fantasies, Host. Soul Beasts must still be hunted. This device merely converts the Soul Rings generated by Soul Beasts into the most suitable skills. The age of the Soul Ring will still depend on the age of the Soul Beast killed by the Host.

Although it was not as outrageously powerful as he had imagined, it was still an incredibly strong ability. Suddenly remembering that he and Todo already had Soul Rings, Ye Han hurriedly asked, "Then what about Todo and me?"

Please rest assured, Host. You will both be modified together when you acquire your next Soul Ring.

After understanding the situation, Ye Han opened the Second Dimension Guild.

Speaking of this guild, they had to mention the Martial Soul Feng Aotian had obtained earlier.

After extensive research, they discovered that as long as they created a guild, they could chat remotely like in a group chat. Thus, the seven of them created a Second Dimension Guild. In any case, they were the only guild in the entire game.

Everyone also discovered that only Honjou Kaede could level up and allocate points. The rest of them had no such feature, but accordingly, their stats could increase through training.

In other words, what had originally been rigid programming had now changed somewhat. For example, in the original story, Honjou Kaede was slow because she had put all her points into defense, but now she could increase her speed stat through training.

Perhaps the most crucial thing was the experience bar system. As long as they did not need to break through a bottleneck, they could level up once their experience bar was full. Both meditation and combat could grant experience.

However, perhaps because of Ye Han, everyone's maximum level was the same as his. They could not exceed him.

Ye Han: "Everyone, something has come up. It's not exactly urgent, but we might not be able to get Soul Rings this afternoon!"

Todo: "Best Friend, you've been slacking off lately!"

Esdeath: "Why? Are you trying to interfere with me becoming stronger?"

Lia: "Don't get worked up. Xiao Han probably has a reason for saying that."

Yoruichi: "That's right, calm down! Besides, even if you acquire a Soul Ring, you can only train up to Xiao Han's level anyway."

Honjou Kaede: "Um, everyone, stop arguing for now. Let Han Gege explain the situation first!"

Looking at the chaotic guild chat, Ye Han had a feeling that he might be in trouble if he revealed this task. But this was not the time to be afraid. The best way to overcome fear was to face it.

Ye Han: "Um, everyone, take a look!"

Ye Han posted the previous task, along with the effects of the Soul Ring Release Device.

Esdeath: "Xiao Han, where are you?"

Ye Han: "Something's not right. Why are you suddenly being so gentle?!"

Lia: "We're just concerned about you. Where are you? We haven't seen each other for a while!"

Yoruichi: "Yeah! It's been a while since we met, and big sister's missed you a little!"

Ye Han: "...I'm on my way back to the dormitory. And didn't we just awaken our Martial Souls together this morning? Since when did we become this close?"

No one replied to Ye Han's words. Just as he was wondering what was going on, he suddenly saw five figures before him, their eyes glowing green.

"What are you trying to do?! I advise you to behave yourselves!" Ye Han instinctively shielded his body and spoke cautiously.

Esdeath directly pulled out a sheet of paper and slapped it in front of Ye Han. "This is the training plan we came up with! You'll definitely be about as strong as Todo in a month!"

After hearing Esdeath's words, Ye Han looked at the long list of training items. The ominous feeling in his heart grew even stronger. "I'll die if I train day and night like this! And how did you come up with this kind of training plan so quickly?!"

Lia looked at the terrified Ye Han and said gently, "Xiao Han, don't worry. We'll supervise you, so relax!"

Isn't that even worse?! Ye Han screamed inwardly. He instinctively turned to leave, but the moment he turned around, he saw Kurumi watching him with a faint, enigmatic smile.

Ye Han could only force out an ugly smile. "Um, my stomach suddenly hurts. I need to go to the bathroom!"

"You talk too much. Let's get moving! We'll supervise you! If you want to give up, we'll make you wish you were dead!" Yoruichi's terrifying voice slowly rang out beside his ear.

Soon afterward, a figure training like mad appeared on the training field. Naturally, it was Ye Han.

Todo looked at Ye Han training so diligently, and tears immediately streamed down his face. He said excitedly, "Best Friend! Have you finally realized the importance of training?! Let's work hard together!"

"Get lost! Todo, take a month off before you start training again!" Ye Han roared.

"I don't like wasting time! Let's work hard together, Best Friend!"

Looking at Todo's high-spirited fighting spirit, Ye Han suddenly felt that the road ahead of him was completely dark.

That training session lasted until night. Dragging his exhausted body back to the dormitory, Ye Han took a shower and prepared to sleep. But the next moment, he saw Esdeath and Lia sitting on his bed.

If this had happened before, he would have been thrilled. But now, Ye Han turned around and wanted to leave. Unfortunately, Lia and Esdeath were not the only ones who had come.

"What exactly do you want?! You can't possibly train me to death!" Ye Han said despairingly.

Lia still wore a gentle expression as she smiled. "Don't worry, we're not demons or anything! We just want to teach you some Fighting Skills tonight."

That immediately piqued Ye Han's interest. After all, he had absolutely no combat experience in this world and only had a good physique.

But these people were different! Esdeath had fought countless battles, Yoruichi Shihouin commanded the Execution Force, Artoria was the King of Britain, and Artoria had participated in the Holy Grail War many times.

Their bodies had returned to the same age as his, six years old, but that did not mean their combat experience had disappeared.

The four of them returned to the training field, and Ye Han quickly realized that he had been wrong. Learning these things required a massive amount of practice, and fighting these people was no joke.

It was not until midnight that the three of them finally let Ye Han go.

The training continued until the tenth day, when Ye Han received some terrible news. If he had heard it before, he would probably have been happy, but now all that remained was despair.

Honjou Kaede had discovered another use for her Game Martial Soul during those days. Everyone in the guild could share some universal skills, but because there were very few universal skill points, they could only choose two.

In the end, they chose Appraisal and healing.

Perhaps because it was a universal skill, the healing effect was very weak. But there were seven people taking turns casting it! Yes, Ye Han himself had also been forced to join in.

Ye Han lived like that for an entire month. At first, he wished he were dead, but later he gradually got used to it. The results were also extremely noticeable.

Under normal circumstances, Ye Han's physical fitness had basically caught up to Todo's. Furthermore, the month of combat had greatly increased Ye Han's strength. It was a transformation born of experience.

As soon as the time was up, the system gave its prompt amid everyone's eager anticipation.

Side Quest completed: Love Training

Reward: Soul Ring Release Device

After receiving the reward, a bracelet appeared on everyone's wrist. It had an ancient aura and bore the logo of the Second Dimension Academy.

Honjou Kaede quickly discovered that it could transform into any accessory. Some turned it into necklaces, others into rings or earrings. They had a great deal of fun with it.

Having obtained the Soul Ring Release Device, Ye Han did not delay. He directly found the Titled Douluo Zhao Lei and headed to the Star Dou Great Forest once more.

This time was different from their first time entering. With the Appraisal skill, they could easily tell what Soul Beasts stood before them and how old they were.

"Although you can convert any Soul Beast, I still recommend that you look for Soul Beasts suited to your own attributes!" Zhao Lei said after learning about the situation.

Ye Han and the others were stunned. After all, they were not professionals in this area. "Uncle Zhao, why is that?"

Zhao Lei looked at these little monsters. Though they had their own pride, their attitudes were good. He answered naturally, "Of course it's for the Soul Bones! Your device can only convert Soul Rings, not Soul Bones, right? If you find Esdeath an extreme-age fire-attributed Soul Beast, the Soul Ring may change, but the Soul Bone would still be fire-attributed. I doubt Esdeath would absorb it."

Zhao Lei's words woke them up. They really had not considered the matter of Soul Bones.

Seeing Ye Han and the others fall into deep thought, Zhao Lei felt a little proud. His talent might not compare to theirs, but he had more experience!

"You're just too anxious about getting your Soul Rings. With a Titled Douluo like me here, I can't say we'll run wild through the Star Dou Great Forest, but I can at least keep you safe. Don't rush. Take your time and look!" Zhao Lei said with a smile.
