Forging Two-Word Battle Armor

Gu Ming was delighted, and the tension in his heart immediately eased. Smiling, he said, "Soul Tools and Mechas are both fine. It depends on what you choose."

"Hmm..." Yun Ze pondered for a moment before saying, "I don't want any of those. If possible, I'd like permission to enter the fifth-floor Library of the academy. Even time-limited access would do."

Finished Soul Tools and Mechas were completely useless to him. The unseen information was what could spark even a little of his interest.

"Permission to enter the fifth-floor Library?" Gu Ming was taken aback. He had not expected Yun Ze to make such a request.

"Yes. As long as you can get me inside, no matter what price this pill ultimately sells for, I'll only charge you ten billion."

"Really?" Gu Ming was overjoyed.

"I'm absolutely not joking," Yun Ze said.

Gu Ming thought it over and said, "All right. However, the fifth-floor Library is extremely important. At most, I can secure you one year of access."

"That works." Yun Ze agreed readily. A year was enough time for him to read a great many things.

After hanging up, Yun Ze stood and looked at Gu Yue Na. "Let's leave first. Once the auction ends, there'll be too many people, and it won't be easy to get out."

Gu Yue Na had also heard Yun Ze's conversation with Gu Ming. She understood that they had reached an agreement and that the fifth pill had already been spoken for. There was no need to keep watching, so she rose and left with Yun Ze.

Bear Lord followed behind them.

The moment the three of them stepped out of VIP Room 1, four people approached through the VIP passageway.

Bear Lord frowned and instinctively stepped forward, moving beside Gu Yue Na to separate her from the four people.

Yun Ze merely glanced at the four before looking away. He continued walking calmly, without paying them much attention.

He could naturally sense that these four were extraordinary. The man who looked only to be in his twenties possessed strength comparable to Di Tian's.

But what did their strength have to do with him? He walked as he normally would, treating them completely like ordinary people.

The three of them passed by the four. Yun Ming turned his head and glanced at Yun Ze. Yun Ze noticed the look but ignored it.

Yun Ze and the other two continued onward, while Yun Ming's group stopped and turned to watch them leave.

"Just over six years old, yet level twenty-two?" Yun Ming murmured, his voice full of shock.

Long Yeyue also looked astonished, while Feng Wuyu and Zhuo Shi were slower to react. They looked at Yun Ming in confusion. "Boss, what are you talking about?"

Their attention had just been fixed on the tall, rugged man, and they had not noticed anyone else.

"That child who just passed by looked only a little over six years old, but his Soul Power had already reached level twenty-two," Yun Ming said.

The burly man at the Limit Douluo level had caught his attention, but the shock of a six-year-old with level twenty-two Soul Power was even greater.

"What?!" Zhuo Shi and Feng Wuyu's eyes widened. They whipped their heads around, only to see Yun Ze and the others turn a corner and disappear from view.

"VIP Room 1... After the auction ends, contact the auction house and investigate those three," Yun Ming said.

He had noticed that the three of them had come out of VIP Room 1.

Yun Ze and the other two left through the private passageway rather than the main entrance. There were too many reporters there; the moment they stepped outside, they would probably be surrounded.

On the way, they inevitably discussed the four people they had encountered.

All three had sensed that the four were extraordinary, but they did not dwell on it. After all, how could anyone who entered the VIP rooms be simple? Once they left the auction house, they quickly returned to Dragon Phoenix Hall. At this time, three long lines stood outside its entrance.

Four tall, burly men stood guard at the door. All of them looked rather simple and honest; they were Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bears in human form.

One of the men, who looked somewhat smarter than the others, had released his Martial Soul. The enormous phantom of a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear stood behind him, with seven black and two red soul rings circling and pulsing around it. He kept his energy restrained as much as possible to avoid hurting anyone.

The few remaining Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bears possessed exceptionally vigorous blood vitality. The soul rings they formed after taking human shape were all black at their base, and some even had red soul rings.

The lines were remarkably orderly. No one cut in, and no one discussed things loudly. Everyone remained quiet, and order was maintained very well.

That was all thanks to the Martial Soul and those nine soul rings. With a nine-ring Titled Douluo standing guard, who would dare cause trouble?

"Looks like the publicity was very effective," Gu Yue Na said with a smile. They stood at the back of the lines, watching.

Even from a distance, they could see that Dragon Phoenix Hall was already packed. Outside, three lines stretched for over a hundred meters, and more people were still joining them. It was clear just how much of a sensation the publicity had caused.

"Let's go in through the back door," Yun Ze said, circling around the building with Gu Yue Na and Bear Lord.

There was a locked metal door there. Bear Lord used a key to open it, and the three entered before heading upstairs through a narrow stairwell.

Bear Lord went to help on the second floor, while Yun Ze and Gu Yue Na went to the workshop on the tenth floor.

"Give me the battle armor design," Yun Ze said.

"Here." Gu Yue Na smilingly took out several sheets of design drawings, all of which she had designed herself.

Yun Ze accepted the drawings and studied them carefully before suggesting, "You can remove the battle skirt and add an energy shield release device to the waist guard. It'll not only look better, but it'll also be more practical."

"Sure. Just do it according to your ideas," Gu Yue Na agreed without hesitation.

Yun Ze smiled. "This is your battle armor. It should still depend mainly on what you want. I can only offer suggestions."

"I think all your suggestions are good. Just change it directly," Gu Yue Na said.

Yun Ze said nothing further. He sat down at the table, picked up a pen, and began making revisions. He removed the somewhat redundant-looking battle skirt, added a diamond-shaped crystal pattern to the belt, and replaced the headband with a retractable helmet.

Gu Yue Na stood beside him, bending at the waist with her hands behind her back as she watched with great interest. From time to time, she would glance at Yun Ze's profile.

"It looks so much better." Gu Yue Na held the revised drawings, her face full of smiles and satisfaction.

The new battle armor was simple without sacrificing beauty. Its streamlined appearance looked elegant, the pair of metal dragon wings on its back did not seem out of place at all, and the seven-colored gem on its chest was the perfect finishing touch.

"If you're satisfied, we'll forge it like this. I'll directly make Full Spirit Refinement metal for you," Yun Ze said.

"Full Spirit Refinement? Wouldn't that make it Two-Word Battle Armor? With my current cultivation, I still can't wear it." Gu Yue Na hesitated.

The minimum requirement for wearing Two-Word Battle Armor was Soul Emperor cultivation, and she was still quite far from that level.

"When forging the Spirit Forged Metal, I'll fuse your blood into it. The battle armor created that way will be like a part of your body, greatly reducing the difficulty of wearing it. With your Soul Ancestor cultivation, you'll be able to wear this Two-Word Battle Armor."

"It's just that because of your cultivation limit, you won't be able to unleash its full power. You'll probably be able to use sixty to seventy percent of it."

"Even so, it'll still be much better than One-Word Battle Armor. Once you wear it, dealing with a Soul Sage shouldn't be a problem," Yun Ze explained.

Under normal circumstances, wearing Two-Word Battle Armor would grant strength comparable to that of a Soul Douluo.

"All right, then I'll have to trouble you." Gu Yue Na revealed a sweet smile, her voice cheerful.

"It's nothing." Yun Ze went to the metal rack and took out a piece of Elemental Spirit Metal, intending to first forge a hammer suited to Gu Yue Na's characteristics.

Only metal forged with such a hammer would be more compatible with Gu Yue Na, allowing her to wear Two-Word Battle Armor before reaching Soul Emperor.
