Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 503: Chapter 365: Yun Tianqi and Ye Xing’s Shock

”What big celebrities?”

Yun Tianqi was the first to walk into the room. He patted Little Sister Dong on the head and said with a smile:

”We’ve all quit the Alliance, we don’t have jobs anymore. You guys are way more popular than us, you’re the real celebrities!”

Ye Xing followed Yun Tianqi into the room and closed the door behind him.

”There’s no way we can compare to you guys.” Little Sister Dong giggled and said.

”So many people.”

Upon entering the room and seeing Lin Feng and his group of eleven, Yun Tianqi was somewhat surprised and said.

It was one o’clock in the morning, the middle of the night— instead of sleeping or cultivating, what were they doing gathering in a room?

”They’re all waiting for you, eager to see you join with their own eyes.”

Lin Feng politely stood up to welcome them.

Then he went to the liquor cabinet, casually picked a bottle of red wine, and seeing the two of them still standing, gestured to the sofa: ”Have a seat, no need to be so reserved.”

”Move over a bit.”

Yu Qiao was slumped on the sofa, the space beside him was relatively empty. Yun Tianqi and Ye Xing sat next to Yu Qiao. Yun Tianqi even deliberately nudged Yu Qiao aside a bit: ”Move over, small frame but taking up so much space.”

Yu Qiao looked displeased, am I bothering you by lying here?

If I could beat you, I’d have done it already.

”Are you guys so sure that we’ll join?”

Ye Xing curiously asked.

He was about five or six years younger than Lin Feng and his group, not a huge difference. They had equally outstanding talent and the same aspirations, so even though they hadn’t interacted much, there was no so-called generation gap.

Moreover, with these people in the room, tomorrow they were all going into the Land of Chaos to battle the alien races, adding a sense of camaraderie in the face of impending hardship.

”Why else would you be here if not to join?”

Yu Qiao adjusted his sitting position, habitually retorted, and then was grabbed by the neck by Yun Tianqi, who was sitting next to him, for a good shake-up.

”Think you’re so tough! Been wanting to teach you a lesson for a while.”

”Let go of me if you dare, let’s face off for real.”

At such close range, as an Assassin, Yu Qiao had no ability to resist; his strength and speed were completely overshadowed. He wanted to use Demon Transformation to escape and fight back but simply had no chance.

”You little rascal, still want to fight back?” Yun Tianqi laughed.

”You guys just going to watch me get bullied?”

Seeing that he wasn’t a match, Yu Qiao quickly called out, hoping for backup, but unfortunately, no one stepped in. They simply watched the scene unfold with smiles.

”You deserve a beating.”

Yue Mingming laughed and said.

Among the top ten All-Stars, Yun Tianqi had the poorest talent, or rather, among the entire Alliance, his talent was the weakest.

He wasn’t a prodigy; at best, his talent was above average. However, through his hard work, he managed to make a name for himself in the Glory Alliance and secured a spot among the top ten All-Stars. He became an idol for many average talent students without family or financial backing.

Yue Mingming’s idol was Yun Tianqi.

At this moment, seeing his idol joking and chatting right beside him and possibly becoming a teammate, he felt both excited and a bit surreal.

It was like a dream.

”You squinty-eyed brat, so arrogant, I’ve tolerated you for long enough.”

After bullying Yu Qiao for a bit and feeling in a good mood, Yun Tianqi released his grip and stopped tormenting him.

”Once I’ve absorbed ’Illusion,’ one day I’ll beat you up!”

Yu Qiao said fiercely, but Yun Tianqi simply ignored him.

The gap in strength was too big; Yu Qiao’s threats had no weight.

However, Yu Qiao’s talk of a Divine Level Soul Skill did surprise and envy him a bit; he didn’t have such a skill and wanted one as well.

For this trip to the Land of Chaos, the government’s reward to him was just a Diamond Soul Skill.

Although it was also precious, it wasn’t on the same level as a Divine Soul Skill and couldn’t compare.

Yun Tianqi understood the reason for the soul skill disparity, and he didn’t think it was unfair; he was just a bit envious.

”With your current strength, the success rate of absorbing a Divine Soul Skill is too low. You’re not going to need it now, why not give it to me first?”

Yun Tianqi joked.

His Lifebound Demon Spirit was a Sixth Tier Gale Mantis, wind attribute, now evolved into an Eighth Tier Ghost Shadow Mantis.

Mantis-type Demon Spirits generally had weak defenses; their advantage was speed.

Yun Tianqi’s speed ranked in the top five in the Alliance, and combined with his Double Blade Technique, his blade speed reached its utmost limit. Not many in the Alliance could keep pace with his attack rhythm.

Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi were both Warriors.

Both preferred close combat.

Ye Xing’s career path was as a Berserker; the Frenzied Giant Beast endowed him with powerful attack and defense. Under Second Frenzy, both defense and power were further enhanced.

Thus, he wasn’t too eager for such a defensive Divine Skill.

But of course, if he could have it, who would refuse such a Divine Soul Skill?

As for Yun Tianqi, his career path was as a Gale Blade Master, with fast attack speed and weak personal defense. For him, having a good Defense Soul Skill was particularly important.

And Illusion was a defensive Divine Skill; he wanted it as well.

Although he was wind attribute, absorbing this water attribute Divine Soul Skill had a low chance of success, but even a ten-to-twenty percent chance was worth a shot.

”You think I’m a primary school student!”

Yu Qiao rolled his eyes, contemptuously saying: ”Besides, how do you know I won’t need it soon? Once my Ghostly Serpent breaks through to the Seventh Tier, I can absorb it.”

”You’re amazing.”

Yun Tianqi gave a thumbs up, not taking it too seriously.

Trying to absorb a Divine Soul Skill with the seventh ability slot, the success rate might be only twenty or thirty percent. If such a soul skill failed to absorb, one might feel suicidal and unable to recover for a decade or so.

”Do all seven of you have Divine Soul Skills as well?”

Ye Xing looked at Ye Qiu and asked.

”Yeah.”

Ye Qiu nodded, causing Ye Xing to marvel.
