Chapter 54: Rongrong's Second Spirit Ring
🕑 Added 2024-02-29 16:05:31 +0000 UTC"Xiaowen, let me try too!"
Su Wen demonstrated his engraving and strengthening abilities, instantly piquing the interest of Yu Tianheng and the others.
Not only was Ning Rongrong playful, but it was just that she was young and displayed all these traits.
The control of both wind and fire elements was something the seven of them couldn't say they had no interest in. After all, they watched Su Wen develop these two elements every day, playing with many variations, and his strength was also improving day by day.
Occasionally, they all fantasized about whether having the same ability could compensate for the flaws in their own abilities from certain perspectives.
Especially Yu Feng, his interest in this was the greatest.
Yu Tianheng might only be trying to control fire with a playful attitude, but Yu Feng knew deep down that Su Wen's ability might be very important to him.
His control over the wind element was lacking, and if he could strengthen himself with Su Wen's engraved pages and experience another aspect of elemental control firsthand, it would provide unimaginable help for his development of Spirit Skills.
"It feels similar to releasing a Spirit Skill!" After Dugu Yan and the others tried it, they all felt somewhat intrigued.
Su Wen's method truly broadened their horizons.
"Yeah, but it should be about the level of a ten-year-old Spirit Ring Spirit Skill, and it consumes a lot of Soul Power."
For Auxiliary Spirit Masters without combat abilities, even if the consumption was significant, it was completely worthwhile.
However, for Yu Tianheng and the others, they could only treat it as an experiment born out of novelty.
Yu Feng and Osler, on the other hand, could strengthen themselves through Su Wen's engraved pages. Wind elemental control was still very useful for them.
As for Ye Lingling, she also looked at Su Wen with a complex expression.
She was also an Auxiliary Spirit Master and belonged to the auxiliary system which lacked a sense of security to some extent.
The Nine Heart Flowering Apple, strictly speaking, was even more incredible than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, a Martial Spirit of the auxiliary system. Only two Spirit Masters could inherit this Martial Spirit at the same time period.
This also means that only when a Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit Master dies, can there be descendants who can awaken this Martial Spirit anew.
This also means that Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit Masters cannot develop their own sects or families.
The fate of Auxiliary Spirit Masters requires them to rely on stronger individuals to protect themselves.
Although Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit Masters can establish their own sects and lead them, the situation for Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit Masters is much worse.
Qin Ming arrived at the training ground, looking at a group of students playing with wind and fire, feeling a bit stunned for a moment as if he had gotten up on the wrong side of the bed today.
'If I remember correctly, among my students, only Xiaowen has control over both wind and fire elements, right?'
'Why are Tianheng, Yanzi, and the others controlling flames and wind?'
Three minutes later, Qin Ming looked at Su Wen with a complex expression on his face.
He composed himself and quickly understood the function and significance of Su Wen's ability.
"Everyone, among you, Tianheng and Yanzi don't rely much on Xiaowen's ability. Yu Feng, Osler, you can learn from it, and Lingling and Rongrong, as auxiliary types, it's essential for you to train in this skill."
"Although there are those who need it and those who don't, one thing is certain about Xiaowen's engraving and strengthening ability, and that is its auxiliary nature."
What everyone just saw was the elemental control ability that Su Wen granted them, but they overlooked the auxiliary nature of this ability.
"Xiaowen has mastered the ability to fly using wind elemental control. If you all can master it too, the effect it will have in competitions will be explosive."
Seven opponents who can fly, are you ready for that? Su Wen couldn't help but think of Oscar's flying sausage.
When all the Shrek Seven Monsters fly up and try to attack them. How would they look when the find out their Emperor team can also fly?
"And not only flying ability, although mastering control over two elements may not grant you powerful burst-type Spirit Skills, it can help you better deal with attacks involving these two elements."
Within the Four Elements schools, there's the Godwind Academy and the Blazing Academy, where the students of these two academies are respectively Spirit Masters of two different elements.
With Su Wen's ability, dealing with the two academies will become much easier.
It must be said that Qin Ming's obsession with competition runs deep. Just after learning about Su Wen's ability, he had already begun to try incorporating it into team battles.
Of course, this inevitably requires Su Wen to personally participate in the competition, but this is also acceptable for the Heaven Dou Emperor Team.
Su Wen's strength is not weak, and there is actually an overlap in the team between two defense-type Spirit Masters and two agility-type Spirit Masters.
Whether Su Wen replaces an agility-type or a defense-type Spirit Master, it can be adapted.
Especially if Su Wen takes the stage, the intensity of the auxiliary system's protection work will decrease, and there is no need for the two top defense-type Spirit Masters.
The Shi Mo brothers taking turns to enter the field can actually better showcase their abilities on the battlefield.
Ning Rongrong didn't have any outbursts. Instead, under Qin Ming's guidance, she practiced with great passion. Qin Ming didn't come up with a bunch of unreliable reasons like Flender did, but instead had valid and logical points, without any intention of suppressing her or any other ulterior motives.
Secondly, Ning Rongrong herself doesn't feel averse to it. In the past, she wasn't very focused on training because she knew she had no combat ability and felt it was useless to train further, which made it difficult for her. Now, with the ability to fight through Su Wen, she naturally began to train. Of course, it was just at the beginning that she didn't feel averse to it.
However, Su Wen's grasp of her psychology was spot on. Every time before she was about to burst out her true nature, Su Wen would always throw in a line like, 'Rongrong, when will you break through to level twenty?' Although Su Wen was asking about reaching level twenty, Ning Rongrong knew right away that Su Wen was indirectly asking her if she still wanted the thousand-year-old Spirit Ring. In this way, she continued to persevere.
"Oh, Brother Xiaowen, why is Flame Control so difficult? It's much harder than Heart Separation Control" Ning Rongrong was on the verge of going crazy.
Su Wen smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, after all, it's an ability obtained through my strengthening. You're bound to feel awkward when using it, and you can only adapt through time."
In simple terms, it's about adapting to my Martial Spirit's abilities. The more you integrate and the longer you do it, the more it will naturally take on the corresponding shape.
...
Time passed by. In the blink of an eye, it was three months later.
Ning Rongrong broke through to level twenty.
In the Great Spirit Arena of Heaven Dou City, Ning Fengzhi looked at his daughter, who now had a sense of heroism, feeling quite emotional.
Such a big change.
"Rongrong, you've also broken through to level twenty. Next, your Sword Grandpa will take you to get your second Spirit Ring."
"What?" Ning Rongrong looked very unwilling.
"My second Spirit Ring has to be a thousand years old Spirit Ring!"
She had worked so hard in these three months under Su Wen's encouragement. Now she's suddenly told she has to absorb a yellow Spirit Ring? No way. Absolutely not. Even if I, Ning Rongrong, don't go to get the second Spirit Ring for several years, I must satisfy the conditions before absorbing the thousand-year-old Spirit Ring!
Ning Fengzhi had long prepared for this and his expression was very serious.
"Rongrong!"
Even in this stance, Ning Fengzhi still carried a commanding presence, making even Su Wen feel a sense of authoritative pressure.
"Have you forgotten, Rongrong, the primary principle as an auxiliary type?"
"To ensure your own safety and minimize your own presence as much as possible," Ning Rongrong weakly replied.
With a tone that showed his disappointment, Ning Fengzhi said, "Rongrong, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul is already too conspicuous. If you gain a thousand-year-old Spirit Ring as your second ring, you will undoubtedly become the primary target in battles."
Even if you have combat power, so what?
You can assist and have combat capabilities, which is even more terrifying.
Combat ability is only to save your life, never to make you a combat force in battles.
After careful consideration, Ning Rongrong felt that what her father said seemed to make sense.
In the past three months, in the academy and in the Great Spirit Arena, she had experienced hundreds of battles.
Not once was she not targeted.
And the taste of being targeted...
"Dad, I've made up my mind. I'll go with Grandpa Sword to get the Spirit Ring now."
