Chapter 212: Powerful amplification

While Bing Tianliang observed Lan Xuanyu, Lan Xuanyu was, in fact, in deep thought. The first thing he had to consider was whether they should give it their all to coordinate with Bing Tianliang inside the Spirit Ascension Platform. If they went all out, it would undoubtedly expose their capabilities to their competitors in the Shrek Academy’s semi-finals.
Lan Xuanyu, however, quickly made the decision to cooperate.
He still remembered Dong Qianqiu’s words. Shrek Academy’s semi-finals were definitely not easy. Despite being able to make a name for themselves in the qualifiers in Heaven Luo planet and obtaining first place, when talking purely in terms of strength, their group of three was most probably the weakest in Shrek Academy’s semi-finals. That’s right, the weakest.
The Soul Power of the trio was only at the 20 odd range rank. Ignoring the others and just basing on Bing Tianliang’s group, they had one four-ring master and two three-rings. If Shrek Academy’s semi-finals was a duel on stage and if they didn’t use any other fighting style, they had no chance at all. It was impossible for them to rely on summoning the Emerald Demon Bird every time, and it wasn’t practical either.
Hence, it was most probable that they would face a greater challenge in the semi-finals. Whether or not they could truly get into Shrek Academy was still unknown.
So just like how Bing Tianliang needed his brains, they required a powerful ally. If they did not reveal their own strength, how would they make the other team admire their strength and increase the depth of their cooperation? How would they gain their approval? At the same time, they were in the Spirit Ascension Platform and had the opportunity to obtain energy that would increase the years of their Soul Rings. The better the coordination of both parties, the higher the benefits obtained for both teams, reaching at a maximum.
Lan Xuanyu only needed to reflect on this for a moment before finalizing on the benefits.
“Shall we move out?” Bing Tianliang looked at Lan Xuanyu and inquired. After their previous exchange, he wanted to see how far the team could reach under Lan Xuanyu’s command.
“Let us wait for a moment and do a simple test,” Lan Xuanyu said. “Actually, I am an auxiliary system Soul Master.”
“Auxiliary type?” Yu Tian looked at him in shock. He still remembered being engulfed by the light Lan Xuanyu had unleashed, and there was also the dark blue halberd that had appeared before him. How could he be an Auxiliary Soul Master?
Lan Xuanyu smiled. “You’ll know it once we try. I have my rough estimates about the amplification of Brother Lin and Brother Yu Tian’s powers. More importantly, I want to see if the amplification on Brother Bing will be more suitable.”
Bing Tianliang and his team glanced at each other before Yu Tian spoke up cautiously. “How will you strengthen me then? Try it on me first.”
Lan Xuanyu knew that the trust between the teams was insufficient, so without explaining further, he unleashed two yellow Soul Rings, which revolved around his right arm, as the blue silver grass with gold veins quietly came out and coiled around his arm. The golden patterned Blue Silver Grass that resembled vines went straight for Yu Tian’s waist.
Yu Tian focused his eyes and subconsciously used his soul power to defend himself. However, in the next moment, his facial expression changed.
Yu Tian felt a burst of sharp aura suddenly gushing out from deep within his bones, causing his entire person to become sharp as well. The rich and powerful aura simply spilled without the need for him to control it. It transformed into the aura of a sharp matchless blade that surged to the sky. He subconsciously raised his hand and summoned the Mo Sword into his palm. Just by standing there, it felt as though he had the aura of a monarch in control of three armies.
His fighting style focused heavily on his aura where it wielded the strongest lethality upon reaching its peak. At that moment, he felt as though he was able to control the power within his body multiple times faster than usual. He actually felt an unrestrained and carefree feeling, and wished to look for a formidable opponent to test his blade.
Lan Xuanyu raised his left hand and unleashed the silver patterned Blue Silver Grass, coiling it around Lin Donghui. The silver patterned Blue Silver Grass emitted a faint red color.
Lin Donghui also revealed a shocked expression as he immediately sensed a burst of warmth surging through his bloodline. As his bloodline soared, it was as though his soul power had been doped. He unleashed his martial soul and released the Brilliant Sun, which was actually double in size compared to the usual. Furthermore, it was even more congealed and had a smear of faint gold within the original red flame.
“Awesome!” Yu Tian roared with a smile.
Lan Xuanyu retracted both vines, leaving Yu Tian and Lin Donghui immediately feeling weaker as the buff depleted and slowly disappeared. The two subconsciously felt as though they had lost everything.
Lin Donghui turned to Bing Tianliang. “His strengthening is extremely strong. I feel that my fighting strength had been amplified by at least 30% to 50%.”
Bing Tianliang also revealed a look of surprise because he clearly remembered when Lan Xuanyu had clashed with him. At that time under his rage, he had used his strongest fourth soul skill. Although Lan Xuanyu was severely injured, he had actually stopped him, Bing Tianliang, and even weakened him by a few degrees.
It was an exceptional thing for a two-ring Soul Master to be able to block a four-ring Soul Master and not die. But now, Lan Xuanyu was actually calling himself an Auxiliary system Soul Master, and even Yu Tian and Lin Donghui were testifying to it.
“Let me try.” Bing Tianliang nodded to Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu thought for a moment, then unleashed the Silver patterned Blue Silver Grass and coiled it around his body.
Bing Tianliang immediately felt as if lightning had shot throughout his entire body, as though the quantity of electric charge within had increased. He was able to sense the clear increase in strength and electric current with every movement he made.
Lan Xuanyu then tried the golden patterned Blue Silver Grass. Comparing the two, the effect from the golden patterned Blue Silver Grass was not as evident.
This made him realize that Bing Tianliang’s martial soul was more of an energy-form existence in a sense, which meant that he was more reliant on the power of thunder and lightning elements. Thus, he was more suited for the amplification from the silver patterned Blue Silver Grass.
Lan Xuanyu then ran through a few more tests. The result showed that if he used the Blue Silver Grass to coil around the other party’s waist, they would immediately be strengthened, but once the Blue Silver Grass was gone, the buff would disappear. However, if he coiled the Blue Silver Grass around his palm and used it to pat their bodies, it would produce a buff that could last for five seconds before receding.
Different employment for different people had better effects. For example, Yu Tian was more suited for close combat, thus more suited for the Blue Silver Grass to coil around his body. As for Bing Tianliang, who was capable of shuttling back and forth like lightning, the palm strike was evidently more suited for him.
After a few tests, the gazes that Bing Tianliang’s group had towards Lan Xuanyu had changed. They were suspicious of whether Lan Xuanyu was truly a two-ring Soul Master. His strengthening ability was definitely not something any ordinary 100-year soul skill could produce!
What kind of standard should an ordinary two-ring Soul Master have? It was reported that the two-ring Soul Masters with the strongest auxiliary type martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, had soul skills that were able to strengthen two aspects of other Soul Masters by 20 to 30 percent.
It is important to note that that was the strongest tool martial soul that was able to produce such an effect.
As for Lan Xuanyu’s strengthening ability, it was not just a simple improvement on a specific ability for the Soul Master, but a holistic improvement. Different Soul Masters would have their unique traits strengthened.
This strengthening ability seemed to originate from deep within their bloodlines, which meant improving from the source. It was much stronger than improving a single aspect.
More importantly, once the buff appeared, it was not as simple as an increase by 20 to 30 percent. Lin Donghui’s initial judgement was already above 30 to 50 percent.
It was even more terrifying on Qian Lei and Liu Feng, but Qian Lei especially. His ability to summon was originally based on probability, which meant that in any ordinary situation, to be able to summon a reliable soul beast even once out of four or five tries was already considerably good. But with Lan Xuanyu’s strengthening effect, every summon of his brought forth soul beasts with dragon bloodlines and extremely powerful ones at that. At the very least, he was far stronger than Soul Masters of the same grade.
