"Sure enough, sweat couldn't beat talent, and talent couldn't beat a cheat."

"Cheating was great for a while, but cheating all the time was great all the time!!"

"With a system as my golden finger, the improvement in my strength really was beyond what ordinary people could imagine or match."

Dai Mubai forced himself to suppress his excitement, his face flushed red.

But the Innate Full Soul Pill was not the only cheat the system had given him.

There was also the Second Martial Soul Random Draw Token.

Once he used it, he could draw one thing from all things and beings across the myriad heavens and worlds to serve as his Second Martial Soul.

Innate Full Soul Power was as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns on the Douluo Continent, but it could still be found.

Twin Martial Souls, on the other hand, were rare even among rarities.

In the Douluo I timeline, the only person on the entire Douluo Continent with Twin Martial Souls was Bibi Dong, the current Pope of Spirit Hall,

and Tang San, the chosen protagonist of Douluo I.

Now that Dai Mubai could also have Twin Martial Souls, how could he not be excited?

Besides, when it came to his system, Dai Mubai had initially thought its functions were somewhat rudimentary. He had thought the system was merely an aid and that he should not rely on it too much.

Yet the system's starter treasure chest had yielded treasures like the Innate Full Soul Pill and the Second Martial Soul Random Draw Token, which would greatly improve his innate aptitude.

Dai Mubai immediately understood that the system whose functions he had initially considered rudimentary was far more powerful than he had imagined.

His assessment of the Favorability System's value and importance rose considerably as well.

As for the condition attached to the two treasures from the starter chest-that only the host could use them and they could not be given to others-

Dai Mubai merely glanced at it before looking away.

The treasures were so precious that he would have to be out of his mind not to use them himself and give them to someone else instead.

Granted, using the Innate Full Soul Pill on trash like Yu Xiaogang, who had innate half-level Soul Power, or on an ordinary person who had not awakened Soul Power, would yield the greatest return and make the most of the precious pill's value.

But so what?

He did not have Innate Full Soul Power himself and needed the precious pill too. How could he possibly give it to someone else just to maximize its value?

Never mind that his Innate Soul Power was level 7.

Even if his Innate Soul Power had been level 9, or 9.9,

with only one such precious pill, he would still have put himself first rather than be so softhearted as to give it to someone else-

"System, should I use the Innate Full Soul Pill and the Second Martial Soul Random Draw Token together, or use one before the other?"

"Is there anything I should know about the order I use these two treasures in? Do you have any advice?"

Since his system was not sentient, Dai Mubai did not expect it to answer when he asked, much less give him useful advice to consider.

But to be on the safe side, and to make the most of the two treasures,

Dai Mubai, unable to make up his mind, still humbly asked the system for advice.

Although he was somewhat domineering and self-centered, he did have a humble side and was willing to listen to advice.

Of course, calling it a humble request for advice was not quite accurate either.

The system was his golden finger, his little assistant. He was merely being broad-minded and as receptive as an empty valley while listening to his assistant's advice.

'Reporting to the host: the Innate Full Soul Pill draws on the transformative power of heaven and earth to cleanse the user's sinews and marrow and remake their body, improving their innate aptitude and granting them Innate Full Soul Power.'

'Host, your Innate Soul Power was level 7, and your current Soul Power cultivation is at the level of a level 27 Soul Grandmaster. If you choose to take the Innate Full Soul Pill first,

your Innate Soul Power will rise from level 7 to level 10, and your Soul Power cultivation will correspondingly rise from a level 27 Soul Grandmaster to a level 30 Soul Elder, an increase of three levels-but that is all.'

'The Second Martial Soul Random Draw Token randomly draws one thing from all things and beings across the myriad heavens and worlds to serve as your Second Martial Soul. However, because the draw is random, the quality of the Second Martial Soul is also entirely random.'

'If you are lucky, host, you could draw a divine beast, divine weapon, or demonic weapon such as the Geng Metal White Tiger, the White Tiger Sword, the White Tiger Weapon Lord Banner, or the divine/demonic weapon Tiger Soul as your Second Martial Soul.'

'But if you are unlucky, host, it is equally possible to draw an ordinary creature or weapon such as a common wildcat, iron knuckle-dusters, a bronze tiger tally, or the Five Tigers Door-Breaking Saber as your Second Martial Soul.'

'If the Second Martial Soul you draw is of ordinary quality and you choose to take the Innate Full Soul Pill after drawing and merging with it,

the pill will not only improve the Innate Soul Power of your First Martial Soul but also enhance the quality and aptitude of the Second Martial Soul you drew.'

'Furthermore, the Second Martial Soul is implanted after birth. The process of merging it with you will consume a certain amount of energy, which will be drawn from your Soul Power cultivation.'

'Therefore, merging with the Second Martial Soul will cause your Soul Power cultivation to decline to some extent. If you take the Innate Full Soul Pill after drawing and merging with your Second Martial Soul, you can minimize the negative effects of that decline.'

'The system therefore recommends that you first draw and merge with your Second Martial Soul, then take the Innate Full Soul Pill.'

After giving its recommendation, the system fell silent once more.

"So there really was more to it!!" The system had said that merging with the Second Martial Soul would consume some of his Soul Power cultivation, and that drawing the Martial Soul before taking the pill would minimize the loss.

It had also said that taking the pill first would only improve the aptitude and quality of his First Martial Soul, leaving the Second Martial Soul he drew afterward to miss out on that boost.

Dai Mubai's expression changed slightly, and he thought how fortunate it was that he had not rushed to use them, but had asked the system for advice instead.

If he had chosen to take the pill first,

not only would his gains have been greatly reduced, but he would also have suffered some unnecessary losses.

"Sure enough, haste can't eat hot tofu. Good thing I didn't rush."

After reflecting with some relief, Dai Mubai finally hesitated no longer.

He sent his thoughts into the system space, touched the Second Martial Soul Random Draw Token with his spiritual power, and decisively chose to use it.

The next second, heaven and earth spun and the galaxy hung upside down. Then Dai Mubai found that his surroundings had changed; at some point, he had arrived in a vast, boundless world of stars.

Directly before his spiritual consciousness was a wheel of unknown size-

The wheel was divided into countless sections, each displaying a different creature or object, with its name marked below.

Dai Mubai gave it a quick scan.

On the enormous wheel were creatures such as the common wildcat, cheetah, saber-toothed tiger, Bi'an, and Geng Metal White Tiger, which the system had mentioned in its earlier recommendation.

There were also weapons such as iron knuckle-dusters, tiger tallies, tiger canes, tiger-tooth swords, tiger-whisker ropes, tiger-tail maces, the Five Tigers Door-Breaking Saber, the tiger-head golden spear, the yin-yang tiger-bite shears, the White Tiger Sword, the Earth Tiger Armor, the White Tiger Weapon Lord Banner, and the demonic weapon Tiger Soul.
