Two-Star Promotion Requirements, Na'er

"Xiao Feng, didn't you say you could raise Sister Xiao Tao and the others' star ratings?

What about us?"

Dugu Yan clenched her fists. She was much weaker than before, and if she could raise her star rating, she would more or less make up for it.

Xu Hanfeng gave a bitter smile. "It's not that simple. To advance to One Star, you need a Permanent Soul Bone Card."

"I see." Dugu Yan found it rather regrettable.

"I have a soul bone here. Would that work?"

Dugu Bo took out a soul bone.

"This is a Thousand-Year Soul Bone."

Xu Hanfeng scanned it with the Douluo Compendium and looked somewhat disappointed.

"A Thousand-Year Soul Bone won't do. It has to be at least a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone before it can be scanned into a card."

Xu Hanfeng went numb. No wonder all the Permanent Soul Bone Cards he had drawn were Ten Thousand Year ones.

"That's quite troublesome."

Dugu Bo put the soul bone away.

"Grandpa Dugu, leave this to me."

"I should help where I can. After all, when they advance to Two Stars, they might need soul bones too."

Dugu Bo only intended to help his granddaughter. The stronger his granddaughter became, the better.

Only then did Xu Hanfeng remember that he was already a Soul Grandmaster and could raise Sister Xiao Tao and the others to Two Stars.

He hurriedly checked.

"Ah... it really does require a second Soul Bone Card, and special requirements must be fulfilled as well."

Xu Hanfeng immediately felt a headache coming on.

The special requirements were manageable. For example, Ma Xiaotao needed to consume a Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly.

That was far simpler than needing a soul bone.

"Haha... kid, work hard."

Dugu Bo laughed.

"Take it slow. Even without advancing our star ratings, we're still far stronger than ordinary Soul Masters."

"Don't put so much pressure on yourself."

Ya Li gently stroked Xu Hanfeng's head.

Xu Hanfeng nodded.

Ya Li was right.

That was indeed the case for them. Every one of their martial souls was excellent, so their strength would not be weak.

Besides, Xu Hanfeng relied on ganging up on people whenever he fought.

"Alright, don't think too much about it. Leave Lingling and Yan Yan's soul bones to me and His Excellency Dugu."

The Ye Family did not lack money. It was not impossible to buy Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones.

"Alright."

Xu Hanfeng did not refuse either.

Back in his room.

Xu Hanfeng discovered that turning a first-time scan target into a Character Card could also unlock a new character.

The next moment, a lifelike card appeared in Xu Hanfeng's hand.

"Uh... am I going to get beaten to death by Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena someday?"

The new character was Na'er.

The Silver Dragon King's secondary personality.

Would Gu Yuena be completely bewildered if she saw Na'er?

Xu Hanfeng truly wanted to try it.

Then there would be Gu Yue as well. Three sisters.

But for now, Xu Hanfeng did not dare go. Someone would die.

Na'er appeared, her silver hair cascading down like a spilled galaxy, gleaming with a soft sheen in the faint light.

She wore a pink-and-white princess dress, its layered gauze skirt blooming outward. Delicate lace and pearl embellishments on the dress further accentuated her otherworldly temperament.

Her skin was fair as snow with a faint rosy glow, so tender it seemed as though water could be squeezed from it.

Below her delicate nose were cherry blossom-like lips.

Her pale silver eyes shone with spirit.

The young girl stood gracefully, radiating youthful vitality.

"Big brother."

Na'er's lips curled up slightly, making her exceptionally adorable.

Xu Hanfeng froze. This was the first person to call him big brother.

But isn't it possible that you look older than me?

At this point, Na'er was in her teenage form, not that of a child.

"Ahem... don't call me that."

"Then what should I call you?" Na'er pouted her tender little lips.

"Just call me little brother."

Xu Hanfeng actually wanted to be the big brother. Na'er was simply too adorable.

"Little brother."

Na'er was very obedient.

Before long, Ma Xiaotao and the others returned to the room as well.

They were stunned when they saw Na'er.

"Little Master, you summoned another little sister."

"She's so cute!"

Ma Xiaotao was forthright as ever. She immediately reached out and pinched Na'er's delicate cheeks with both hands.

As Na'er's eyes shifted, they seemed to ripple like water.

"Mm..."

"Ma Xiaotao, look at you. You're about to make our little sister cry."

Ling Luochen immediately pulled Ma Xiaotao away.

"I... I didn't know."

Ma Xiaotao was starting to panic. She seemed to have committed an unforgivable crime.

"Be good... don't cry." Ya Li rubbed Na'er's little cheeks.

Na'er only felt that Ya Li smelled wonderful and made her feel warm and safe.

"Mm."

Na'er nodded heavily.

The women all gathered around, surrounding Na'er in the middle.

Seeing that she had so many older sisters, Na'er became happy as well.

Xu Hanfeng had fallen out of favor.

He used to be the group's darling, but now Na'er was the true darling of the group.

At that moment, Tang Ya quietly came over to Xu Hanfeng's side.

A delicate fragrance washed over him, and Xu Hanfeng looked up.

Tang Ya held her right index finger to her red lips.

Xu Hanfeng looked puzzled, unsure what Sister Ya intended to do.

Then Tang Ya took Xu Hanfeng's hand and quietly led him out of the room.

Among all the women, only the meticulous Ya Li noticed this.

Ya Li smiled silently.

"Sister Tang Ya, why did you bring me out?"

Xu Hanfeng asked.

"Of course, it's so you can accompany me in completing my special requirement." Tang Ya tapped Xu Hanfeng's nose.

Tang Ya's special requirement was to use her martial soul's life-devouring ability to turn the life she devoured into a Life Energy Cluster.

It was related to the special nature of her martial soul.

"Then there was no need to sneak around like this, right?"

Tang Ya did not answer. With her hands behind her back, she slowly walked ahead.

Yet in her mind, a tiny Xu Hanfeng appeared. Tang Ya summoned Blue Silver Grass and whipped Xu Hanfeng's butt again and again.

Stupid Xiao Feng. He's so mature sometimes, but other times his brain just doesn't work.

So annoying...

Xu Hanfeng followed her.

The two arrived at the Ye Family's garden.

Tang Ya had already discussed it with Ye Liuli.

These were not particularly important flowers anyway.

Tang Ya summoned Blue Silver Grass and began absorbing the Life Force within the flowers.

In mere moments, all the flowers withered. The more severely affected ones crumbled directly into powder.

Having absorbed ample Life Energy, Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass had grown considerably thicker.

"Sister Ya, can you extract the Life Energy from this Blue Silver Grass?"

"No problem."

Tang Ya controlled the Blue Silver Grass and slowly extracted the Life Energy from its tips.

But the instant the Life Energy emerged and fell to the ground, it immediately vanished.

"It seems this can't be preserved, much less compressed."

Xu Hanfeng furrowed his brow.

"That's right. It was the same for me before. Unless we find a way to collect this Life Energy."

"What about using a tool?"

"I tried that. It didn't work." Tang Ya shook her head.

"In other words, this Life Energy isn't actually physical. Neither tools nor the ground can contain it."

Xu Hanfeng touched the spot where the Life Energy had fallen. It was dry, without a trace of Life Energy.

"That's exactly it."

"Interesting."
