Huo Wu Makes Up Her Mind, Xiao Wu's Overdraft
Most onlookers were simply enjoying the spectacle and marveling at the extraordinary nature of this competition when it came to Shui Bing'er's strength.
But there was one person who simply couldn't take it anymore.
That's Huo Wu!
The two had known each other since childhood, and were evenly matched in appearance, talent, and strength.
She has always regarded Shui Bing'er as her biggest rival.
If she lost to someone else, she could accept it even if she was unwilling, but not Shui Bing'er!
"Brother, I want to be Soul King too!" Huo Wu suddenly grabbed her brother's arm and murmured.
Huo Wushuang saw his younger sister calling him, but her gaze was unfocused and looking elsewhere. He couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile.
"Your brother doesn't have that ability!"
This was originally a self-pitying remark from him, but unexpectedly, Huo Wu nodded seriously, her expression suddenly becoming earnest:
"I know that! You can't, but Lin Hai can!"
But Huo Wushuang was already used to her younger sister's straightforward nature, and simply asked calmly:
"There's no turning back now. Have you thought it through?"
"Yes!" Huo Wu nodded vigorously. "Shui Bing'er and the others suddenly disappeared for a long time. They must have been in seclusion."
"It seems that it will take Lin Hai some time to help people improve their strength."
"It's definitely too late now. Let's talk about it after the competition is over."
"When the time comes... leave Father to me." She looked at Huo Wushuang, her tone leaving no room for argument. "Feng Xiaotian is yours!"
"I don't care what method you use, just make him stop bothering me. I'm afraid Lin Hai will misunderstand!"
Huo Wushuang's lips twitched violently, and she sighed, rubbing her forehead, "You really are my own sister."
He knew his father too well; he couldn't utter a single "no" in front of Huo Wu.
But what about Feng Xiaotian...?
Huo Wushuang could almost picture Feng Xiaotian shouting "No—" upon hearing the news, then hugging himself and weeping bitterly, wiping his tears and snot all over his clothes.
As for whether Lin Hai would accept Huo Wu, he hadn't even considered it.
Look around that guy—
Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er... it's a bit like the saying "the more the radish and the green vegetable, the better."
Besides, what man could resist a touch of ice and fire?!
After the third round of competition, the top six teams were, without any suspense, the very six teams that Lin Hai had given prior notice to.
That day, Xiao Wu approached Lin Hai.
"Brother, my Soul Power has broken through to level 60!" She looked up, her voice filled with barely suppressed joy.
"Congratulations!" Lin Hai greeted him with a genuine smile and asked:
"If I remember correctly, after Soul Beast Transformation, it can automatically condense its first six Soul Ring, right?"
"That's why I came to see you!" Xiao Wu pouted, looking somewhat troubled. "It really could have been done."
"But the Soul Ring I formed earlier consumed too much of my original power, leaving me with insufficient power to form a Sixth Spirit Ring of a sufficient age."
Upon hearing this, Lin Hai subconsciously scratched the corner of his mouth, realizing he had overlooked this point.
"So what type of Soul Skill do you want?" He pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, we have plenty of Spirit Ring Pill, you can choose whatever you like."
"I don't have any ideas either..." Xiao Wu muttered softly, counting on her fingers:
"In terms of defense, the Invincible Golden Body and Void are more than enough."
"As for attacking, although I don't have the ' Charm ' skill, I've gotten used to using my movement to find gaps in my opponent's defense."
"In addition, there are amplification Soul Skill and Teleportation..."
She hesitated for a moment, then looked up and tentatively asked:
"Brother, what do you think... how about I create a ranged attack Soul Skill?"
Lin Hai's eyes lit up, and he patted Xiao Wu's head approvingly:
"That's great, Xiao Wu! You've learned to think about future development directions. That's progress!"
"As a Attack System Soul Master, you do lack a sufficiently powerful ranged attack Soul Skill."
"Hmm... it would be best if we could lock onto the target!"
With the Spirit Ring Pill, a resource considered a bug, those around Lin Hai can freely combine Soul Skill and develop into "polygonal warriors," giving them more room to unleash their individual strength.
However, Soul Skill are derived from the combination and mutation of Soul Beast skills and the Soul Master's own Martial Soul characteristics, and therefore involve a considerable degree of randomness.
Obtaining a ranged attack Soul Skill with a 100% success rate is not an easy task.
Lin Hai quickly searched his mind for relevant information, and after a moment, he took out a Spirit Ring Pill from his ring and handed it to Xiao Wu:
"This is a Golden Sword Tiger Spirit Ring Pill is 50,000 years old."
"As far as I know, Golden Sword Tiger that are over ten thousand years old, apart from one powerful sonic attack, all of their other skills are ranged attacks, and all of them can be locked onto and used."
At this point, he smiled with a hint of sarcasm:
"You're just a rabbit, you couldn't possibly have inherited some kind of sonic ability, could you?!"
For Xiao Wu, the Dark Gold Dread Claw Bear's skills are actually the best choice right now.
While the Golden Sword Tiger's ranged attacks are powerful, they are still far inferior to the Dark Gold Dread Claw Bear's "Sky-Tearing Claw" and "Dark Gold Dread Claw".
But Lin Hai had his own concerns.
The Dark Gold Dread Claw Bear possesses powerful attack skills, but it also has Defense Type skills.
He simply couldn't imagine what would happen if Xiao Wu, who already possessed the "Invincible Golden Body" and "Void," gained another defensive Soul Skill...
I might as well switch to a defensive build!
"Hmph!" Xiao Wu snatched the Spirit Ring Pill from Lin Hai's hand, nuzzled his nose at him, and said defiantly:
"Don't underestimate rabbits! Even a rabbit will bite when cornered!"
After saying that, she deftly kicked off her shoes and hopped onto the bed like a real Xiao Wu. She even deliberately bared her teeth at Lin Hai, making what she thought was a very fierce expression.
"It's true that they can bite..." Lin Hai was amused by her expression, "But rabbits don't make noises!"
"You... you did that last time... how were people supposed to call you that?!" Xiao Wu's pretty face instantly turned bright red as she retorted angrily.
As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized what she had said and was so ashamed she wanted to disappear into the ground, but she still refused to admit it:
"Try it next time and see if I can drive you crazy with noise!"
Such raunchy words were too much for the hot-blooded Lin Hai to bear, and he felt a surge of heat rush to his head.
"Hurry up and absorb it! Once the competition is over, you won't be able to escape it even if you want to!" After saying that, he quickly turned around and walked towards the door.
Since discovering that high-frequency firepower coverage could accelerate the refining process of the Divine Artifact, Lin Hai gradually became more accepting of it.
The user experience doesn't matter anymore, so a small size is fine... it's still good to play it big.
Moreover, as the female protagonist of the Douluo World, Xiao Wu has a fairly high probability of resonating with the Divine Artifact.
Sitting on the bed, Xiao Wu heard Lin Hai's seemingly threatening but actually promising words, and her shyness was instantly replaced by sweetness, and she became full of anticipation.
