Yan's Soul Power was currently at level 52, neither low nor high.

He was still young, too, so even if he paid with his Soul Power, Yan was confident he could cultivate it back.

"Move, move! I've got more than fifty levels of Soul Power. I can pull over five hundred times!"

As Yan spoke, he shoved aside the group whose Soul Power was only in the single digits and strode up beneath the stage.

A smile appeared on Furina's face, too subtle for most to notice. She knew Shen Luo's "big customer" had arrived.

Shen Luo looked down at Yan. "Put your hand on my palm and say how much Soul Power you want to pay."

Yan did as instructed. "One level of Soul Power!"

On the system panel, one rate-up banner after another flashed past, finally stopping at random on Arataki Itto's banner.

The pull began!

Ten meteors streaked across the panel, and among them appeared a purple meteor, the most dazzling of all.

Shen Luo looked at the results.

[This pull: four-star Xiangling *1, four-star Barbara *1, two-star Iron Point *4, two-star Pocket Grimoire *4] [Host's rewards: Soul Power *1, Starglitter *4, Stardust *150]

Shen Luo smiled. This kid Yan had pretty good luck: two four-stars.

That had earned Shen Luo five extra pieces of Starglitter, which had far greater purchasing power in the system shop than Stardust.

When the ten card slots appeared before Yan, the entire crowd was stunned.

The first two were both four-star characters glowing purple!!

Yan's eyes went wide.

Li Er, who had pulled earlier, was also watching. He couldn't help asking, "Why? Lord God! Why did he get two four-star characters from ten pulls?!"

Shen Luo said, "I said you'd get at least one four-star character in ten pulls. I never said you could only get one. This red-haired kid's lucky."

"Really? All right!!"

Yan jumped up and down on the spot in delight.

But after his excitement passed, he seemed a little disappointed.

Yan muttered, "No Bennett? I quite liked that guy."

Shen Luo frowned. So what if there was no Bennett? He dared look down on his girl Xiangling?

He said, "You got two four-star characters in ten pulls. That's enough to keep you grinning. Barbara's a water-type character, and Xiangling's a fire-type character. They can trigger a Vaporize Reaction right away."

Yan couldn't help laughing again. "Hehe, but what's a Vaporize Reaction?"

Shen Luo said, "Something important. You'll find out soon."

Yan nodded and watched as the girls in the first two slots floated onto him. The two characters flashed one after the other, both taking on their Martial Soul forms.

But Yan took a look and found that only one of the two girls could manifest on him at a time.

Yan asked, "Lord God, can't these two girls appear on me at the same time?"

Furina noticed that Yan had already begun calling Shen Luo "Lord God" without even thinking about it.

She couldn't help feeling a little smug. After all, disguising themselves as gods had been her idea! She was very clever!

Hmph, Shen Luo had better praise me tonight... Furina thought.

Shen Luo said, "No. You can only use one character's skills at a time, but you can just switch to the next character right after using them."

Yan began to experiment. Sure enough, Xiangling and Barbara's forms switched freely on him.

Before long, Xiangling and Barbara chose the [two-star Iron Point] and [two-star Pocket Grimoire] respectively as their weapons.

Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't stand watching anymore and shouted from the side, "You brat, show us what the skills do! Who the hell cares how many girls you got?!"

Of course, saying he didn't care was a lie. Seeing Yan exchange one level of Soul Power for two characters, Chrysanthemum Douluo was so jealous he nearly ground his teeth to pieces.

How much dog shit had this brat sneaked off to eat to have such dog-shit luck?!

Yan silently felt it out, then said with some excitement, "I've discovered I have four skills, but I don't know what they're like yet. I'll try them first. Don't rush me, Elders."

He switched to Xiangling and unleashed a skill.

[Xiangling - Elemental Skill]

Yan threw a doll-like object onto the ground. The instant its body swelled up, fierce flames spewed from its mouth.

The flames reached more than ten meters, and the scorching heat sent everyone present scrambling out of the way.

Shen Luo raised his eyebrows slightly. He hadn't expected the effect from the game to produce such an explosive sight in reality.

In fact, he'd had the same feeling when he'd just watched Bennett's skills in action.

Honestly, he was suddenly curious what the Sovereign's [Elemental Burst - Planet Befall] would look like.

Guoba was still breathing fire.

Ghost Douluo went "Whoa," his expression changing drastically as he dodged backward again and again.

Because of his Martial Soul's attribute, he was very averse to this kind of fire-based ability.

Ghost Douluo said, "Yan, this thing's fire is a higher grade than yours!"

Yan wholeheartedly agreed. "I noticed that ages ago. Their fire attribute is very different from ours in Douluo. It's hotter, more scorching, and its attribute suppression is stronger."

[Xiangling - Elemental Burst]

The next moment, a twenty-meter-wide wheel of fire began spinning around Yan, like a massive fire dragon roaring and burning as it circled his body!

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo backed away again and again. Everywhere they looked was a sea of fire!

Chrysanthemum Douluo said, "Why do I feel like I might die if I touch those flames?"

Ghost Douluo's mouth twitched. "Surely not. No matter what, we're Titled Douluo..."

But despite what he said, Ghost Douluo wasn't sure himself. The main thing was that the flames from this skill covered too large an area. They really did look intimidating.

And the flames' energy attribute was very high, surpassing that of almost every fire-type Soul Master they had ever seen.

Of course, as Douluo Soul Masters, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo still didn't know that the plane they lived on had already been crushed by Genshin Impact's level of combat power.

Shen Luo looked at Yan standing there in a daze and smiled. "Think Xiangling's not bad either?"

Yan shouted in delight, "This is way cooler than Bennett! And does this skill really keep going once it's unleashed?"

Shen Luo said, "Not only does it keep going, it'll still be there when you switch to the next character."

Of course, the technical term for this was snapshotting.

As if he didn't quite believe it, Yan immediately switched to Barbara, and sure enough, the surging wheel of fire was still whirling around!

"Huh? How come it seems like I can use water-type attacks?"

Yan asked in confusion. At that moment, an open magic book suddenly appeared in his hand.

Yan waved his hand forward, and a blue stream of water suddenly struck a Soul Master opposite him, sending him flying!

The Soul Master opposite him: Do you have any manners?

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's eyes widened almost simultaneously.

Of course, that Soul Master was just a fellow with a single-digit Soul Power Level.

Yan stared at his hand in astonishment.

"That wasn't even a skill?"

Shen Luo said, "That was just a normal attack... You can use it as many times as you want. But honestly, Barbara is actually a support character. She doesn't do much damage. Her ultimate, though, is very special."

What Shen Luo meant by special was that Barbara was the only four-star character whose ultimate had a full-screen animation, just like a five-star character.

That was how it was in the game. He didn't know what form it would take in reality...

Shen Luo suddenly felt a little curious.
