Han Xing was unaware of what others were thinking.

After leaving the vicinity of the Soul Fighting Arena, he found a patch of grass and lay down, quietly watching the bullet comments.

Jiang Zhu, Huang Lili, and the other fan support group members saw Han Xing lie down and came to sit not far from him, but they didn't speak.

In fact, this was the normal state of interaction between Han Xing and his fans.

There was basically no communication, just one-sided support, because Han Xing himself didn't need fans.

The affection of the people of the Douluo Continent wouldn't increase his popularity on the system.

Like today, Han Xing taking the initiative to talk to Jiang Zhu and the others was the first time since the fan club was established.

Of course, the main reason Han Xing talked to them.

was because he had discovered that the concept of a Fan Support Group could actually bring him even more popularity.

"If you're tired, rest on your own. There's no need to act like my bodyguards."

Han Xing glanced at the members of the fan club and said casually.

"A Xing, are you talking to us?" Huang Lili's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked.

The others couldn't help but roll their eyes at Huang Lili.

Wasn't that obvious? Who else was there besides them?

But at this moment, Han Xing's attention was no longer on them.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for breaking through 100,000 popularity points and receiving a popularity gift package. Do you want to claim it?"

The system's mechanical voice sounded in his mind, drawing all of Han Xing's attention.

Seeing Han Xing appear to be closing his eyes and resting, the girls from the fan club.

each found a suitable place to sit and stared blankly at Han Xing lying on the grass.

As for why they were a bit blank, it was naturally because he was too handsome.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward, Heart of the Sun."

"Heart of the Sun?"

Han Xing couldn't help but feel a little confused when he heard the reward.

"What is it? I've never heard of it."

"System, can you explain it to me?"

However, faced with Han Xing's confusion, the system had no intention of explaining.

Helplessly, Han Xing had to check the introduction of the Heart of the Sun in the system's backpack.

Heart of the Sun: An item that burns eternally and resembles a heart on the outside.

Suggestion: The flame burning from the Heart of the Sun carries unparalleled high temperature and can be used to attack enemies. Further development needs to be explored by yourself.

After reading the introduction of the Heart of the Sun, Han Xing had a thoughtful expression.

If he remembered correctly, the national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire, the Vast Sea and Universe Cover, was also known as the Heart of the Sea God.

Did the existence of the Heart of the Sun also have something to do with gods?

Was it a key to the inheritance of the Sun God? But was there a Sun God position in the Douluo Continent?

Han Xing recalled silently, but couldn't find any content related to the Sun God.

Perhaps it was a god who had already died, or perhaps there really wasn't one?

But no matter what, since it was related to gods, even if this item couldn't be used for now, it was still worth it.

Han Xing couldn't help but count his gains since arriving in Heaven Dou City.

In just half a year, he had broken through from level thirty-five to level forty-one.

A hundred-thousand-year Golden Crow Soul Spirit, the Heart of the Sun, and an Immortal Herb.

His Soul Rings had also undergone a transformation, with the first three Soul Rings all becoming ten-thousand-year Soul Rings.

The fourth Soul Ring provided a Soul Skill called Crimson Sun Radiance.

This Soul Skill was not an offensive Soul Skill, but a status-type Soul Skill.

When activated, the Sun True Fire around Han Xing would expand outwards wildly, completely transforming into a small sun.

In this state, Han Xing's strength, speed, and flame temperature all doubled.

Moreover, the Sun True Fire would form a barrier to block attacks for Han Xing.

At the same time, the strong light emanating from his body would also add a blinding effect, making it impossible for enemies to lock onto Han Xing's position with their eyes.

Han Xing currently did not lack output methods, so this was a very powerful Soul Skill.

The reason he didn't use it in the previous fight with Xiao Wu was simply because it was unnecessary.

"I have to say, there are really a lot of shots near Tang San."

"It's a pity, there's only one year left."

Han Xing couldn't help but sigh silently to himself.

According to his calculations regarding the system, he should have to wait until he reached one million popularity points to receive a new popularity reward, right?

He wondered if he would even be able to reach one million popularity points within a year.

Even Tang San only had a little over two hundred thousand popularity points at the moment.

If he couldn't achieve it within this year, it would be even more impossible later on.

As his identity was exposed, it was inevitable that some viewers would feel some resentment toward him.

Just as Han Xing was lost in his wild thoughts, a new system notification suddenly rang in his ears.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for reaching tenth place in the popularity rankings."

My popularity increased again?

Han Xing couldn't help but open his eyes, causing Huang Lili and the others around him to show expressions of confusion.

"A Xing, if you're tired, would you like me to give you a massage?" Jiang Zhu asked.

"As a healing soul master, I specifically learned methods to help people relieve fatigue."

Seeing everyone's gaze, Han Xing gave a casual explanation and continued to focus on the system.

1. Tang San, 307,995 popularity.

2. Xiao Wu, 225,694 popularity.

3. Zhu Zhuqing, 199,548 popularity.

10. Han Xing, 130,214 popularity.

The popularity of everyone on the list had changed; Tang San's popularity had jumped by fifty thousand.

Xiao Wu's had also increased by about forty thousand, while Zhu Zhuqing's had gone up by over twenty thousand.

This meant that as the anime continued to progress, popularity could still keep rising, so breaking through one million might not be impossible.

"System, what kind of reward will I get after my popularity breaks through?" Han Xing asked hurriedly.

System: "The rewards each month are random."

"However, because the host's popularity has increased and reached the top ten list, your weighting in [Douluo Continent] has improved."

"From now on, the host will also receive your own Exclusive Scene in the [Douluo Continent] anime."

"Starting now, for every one hundred minutes of footage on average, the host will receive one minute of Exclusive Shot."

"Exclusive Shot? What does that mean?" Han Xing asked, feeling a bit uncertain.

"It means plot scenes dedicated to you, the host," the system explained.

Han Xing's eyes lit up: "In other words, during this one minute, I don't need to go out of my way to hog the camera?"

"The anime will capture my daily life on its own and then edit it into a scene, right?"

The system replied: "That is more or less the meaning."

"If that's the case, will my exclusive plot duration be reduced because I take the initiative to hog the camera?" Han Xing continued to ask.

System: "It will not. The meaning of an exclusive plot is that the scene is captured with you, the host, as the lead."

"When the host interacts with Tang San and the rest of the Protagonist Group, the lead characters of the plot are the Shrek members, not you, the host."

Hearing this, Han Xing finally felt completely at ease.
