A vast and empty room, its tall, arched French windows left open.

The night wind blew in, fluttering the mist-like gauze curtains.

There was no moon, but the stars were dazzling.

The night was as cool as water.

Lu Yuan sat on a giant chair, over five meters high and three meters wide, forged from countless black iron spears. His eyes were slightly downcast, as if he were dozing.

He wore the distinctive pure black protective clothing of a Yellow Bear Member, with the pattern of a Gold Bear on his left chest.

His figure seemed to blend with the iron throne behind him and the thick darkness of the night, giving an impression of towering strength and profound mystery.

[Profession: Fighter Lv10 (10,344/51,200)]

[Attribute Points: 2]

[Skill Points: 4]

[Spear Holder (Extraordinary) Lv1 (0/100)]

[Basic Professional Skills: To be unlocked]

Before the start of the Ultimate Bloody Battle, Lu Yuan had already assembled all the Red Bears, White Bears, and Yellow Bear Members from around Chiming City to stand by outside the battlefield.

This was one of the reasons he had been so brazen from the moment he stepped into the Mosa arena.

If it were the Crow God Sect or some other Evil God Sect, he might have been more cautious.

But Mosa...

Mosa was just too easy to handle.

Mosa's continued existence in the Sum Country was naturally at the cost of being constrained by official forces.

Within the territory of the Sum Country, they had to follow the rules set by the Sum Country.

His identity as a Gold Bear was his greatest protection.

So he wasn't at all worried about making a mess in the Bloody Battle that he couldn't cover up.

In the eyes of the Red Bears and White Bears under his command, this Ultimate Bloody Battle was merely a whim of Lu Yuan, the highly esteemed Gold Bear Lord.

And indeed, it was.

Lu Yuan had an exceptionally good time this round.

All in all, the [Fighter] panel had gained over 20,000 Experience Points.

The [Fighter] level had risen to Lv10, and he had received a reward of 1 Attribute Point and 1 Skill Point.

So far, Lu Yuan had accumulated a considerable number of Attribute Points and Skill Points.

The Skill Points, especially, were just enough to use on the newly unlocked Extraordinary Profession.

[Spear Holder (Extraordinary) Lv1 (0/100)]

Lu Yuan had originally planned to obtain Divine Blood, a Mosa specialty, through the Bloody Battle to try unlocking a new profession.

The sudden emergence of the Silver Lance, and the mysterious will it contained, had prematurely unlocked the new Mosa profession, which was a pleasant surprise.

At this moment, the long spear lay quietly before Lu Yuan.

It looked as if it were crafted entirely from pure silver, nearly two meters long with a diameter of less than four centimeters.

The body of the lance was etched with intricate and complex patterns, a mystical aura flowing across its surface. Even in the darkness of night, it shone with an alluring silver light.

It looked magnificent, symbolizing some kind of supreme authority.

But it was also very practical.

Lu Yuan had tested it; even when he increased his explosive power to nearly fifty tons, this pure silver lance, which appeared more decorative than functional, could still withstand the force.

It's tougher than most super-alloy materials, Lu Yuan thought. It's likely made of some kind of Extraordinary material. When I have time, I might learn some polearm combat skills to fully utilize the value of this Extraordinary weapon...

Without further study, his attention returned to the [Spear Holder (Extraordinary)] panel.

This was the second Extraordinary panel Lu Yuan had unlocked. Although his heart was still full of anticipation, he wasn't as excited as when he had unlocked [Death Teller (Extraordinary)] for the first time.

There were three skill light-orbs waiting to be unlocked on the panel.

Each light-orb represented a "blind box": one Skill Point per draw, with surprises hidden beneath.

Before he began to choose a skill to unlock, Lu Yuan thought to himself, As long as I unlock that skill of the Tyrant King's—the one that allows him to burn his vitality and blood in exchange for powerful regenerative abilities and life force—I'll stop. I'll save the remaining Skill Points to unlock other skills when I have more...

Lu Yuan had many skills on his other profession panels that urgently needed upgrading.

The Super Kill—[Thousand Crows Singing at The Moon], the third profession's core [Unconquerable Instinct], and the upcoming first core skill of [Death Teller (Extraordinary)]...

All of them required Skill Points to upgrade and activate.

Although he didn't know what the three skills of [Spear Holder (Extraordinary)] were, they were, after all, just three basic skills. There was a significant gap between them and the aforementioned skills awaiting upgrades. The latter would undoubtedly contribute more to Lu Yuan's overall strength.

So, I should put this off for now, he mused.

Lu Yuan had witnessed the effect of the Tyrant King's technique, "Body of Burning Blood," during their battle, and it was quite beneficial to his Pure Martial system.

He only held expectations for this particular skill.

One shot, one kill! Get it in one go!

Lu Yuan rubbed his hands, randomly chose one of the three skill light-orbs, and selected "unlock."

The next second, a message prompt instantly popped up—

[Congratulations on unlocking the [Spear Holder (Extraordinary)] Basic Professional Skill—Hunting Perception!]

[Hunting Perception Lv1 (0/100)]

Bad luck!

Lu Yuan had a helpless expression but quickly composed himself and tried to activate the skill.

Lv1 [Hunting Perception], activate!

The moment the skill activated, Lu Yuan felt his blood flow quicken, and a slight burning sensation spread through his body.

A mist swirled in his mind, as if something was about to emerge from it.

After carefully sensing it for a while, Lu Yuan stopped channeling the skill, a thoughtful look on his face.

I need to select a target first before I can fully activate it. It seems like some kind of tracking skill from an Extraordinary domain... I'll have to test it to know its exact effects.

This skill didn't seem very useful to Lu Yuan at the moment.

His opportunities to track someone were scarce.

Besides, with the Yellow Bear organization backing him, he had far too many other means to track a person if needed.

One draw, and I got a 'trash' skill that offers almost no improvement to my overall strength, Lu Yuan thought. What now? Should I try again?

He looked at his remaining 3 Skill Points, his eyes flashing.

People with bad luck always hope for another chance to turn things around, and Lu Yuan was no exception.

After a brief internal struggle and hesitation, he eventually decided to try once more.

At worst, I'll just use the Skill Points I set aside for the first core skill of [Death Teller (Extraordinary)]. After all, it'll take some time for my [Death Omen Eye] to reach Lv3 anyway.

Lu Yuan pondered, hovering his choice between the remaining two skills for a moment before randomly picking one to unlock.

[Congratulations on unlocking the [Spear Holder (Extraordinary)] Basic Professional Skill—Indomitable Will!]

Damn it!

Lu Yuan was on the verge of swearing.

Is my luck really this terrible?!

He rested his forehead on his hands, which were propped on the table, taking two seconds to accept his hidden status as "Unlucky." Then, he regained his composure and began testing the new skill.

Lv1 [Indomitable Will], activate!

The moment the skill activated, numerous fragmented memories flooded Lu Yuan's mind.

These images were all filled with an ancient, vast aura.

It was as though deep, ancient horn calls resonated in his ears, and ancient tribal flags fluttered in the wind...

Countless scenes of spear-wielding warriors flowed swiftly past Lu Yuan's eyes, like a muddy river swirling with sediment.

An inexplicable, surging battle intent spontaneously arose within him.

His will soared, his desire to fight grew unprecedentedly strong, and his mental state instantly reached a peak he had never experienced before.

BOOM!

An invisible force erupted from Lu Yuan's body, causing the white gauze curtains on the large floor-to-ceiling windows to billow and ripple.

In Lu Yuan's perception, a giant white crane appeared above his head.

His Spirit Crane True Intention had activated on its own!

Not only that, Lu Yuan discovered that at this very moment, his Spirit Crane True Intention was about thirty percent stronger than in its normal state.

Incredible! This skill can directly amplify True Intention?!

Lu Yuan was taken aback, feeling as if he'd unexpectedly stumbled upon a treasure.

The importance of True Intention to a Fighter was self-evident.

The stronger the True Intention, the greater the power amplification for his Martial Arts moves.

The [Indomitable Will] skill from [Spear Holder (Extraordinary)] could grant the user potent battle intent and an unyielding will to fight. To some extent, it strengthened Spiritual Power, thereby indirectly amplifying True Intention.

It's practically a God-tier skill! Lu Yuan mused, filled with emotion. This is just Lv1, and the effect is already a thirty percent increase. What if it reaches Lv2, Lv3, Lv4, or even Lv5 max level? Wouldn't it multiply several times over?!

However, as the skill continued to activate, he quickly discovered the side effects of [Indomitable Will].

The ancient, chaotic battle scenes in his mind became more numerous and clearer. An inexplicable silhouette slowly began to emerge within these images.

Is this the projected consciousness of the Mosa Religion's God of Combat and Hunting?

Lu Yuan immediately thought of his frequent Crow Dreamscape.

Instead of worrying, a glint of excitement lit up his eyes.

An Evil God's projection is a curse for most people. It can lead to mental assimilation, turning one into the Evil God's pawn... But I'm different. The profession panel has eliminated this hidden danger; the Crow Dreamscape is the best example. The Crow Dreamscape supported me in comprehending two Super Kill moves consecutively. And now, another projection from Mosa's Evil God is appearing...

Lu Yuan's heart began to race.

He hadn't forgotten the Extraordinary Martial Arts path he had pioneered.

It required a large number of Evil God consciousness projections to sustain it.

What others saw as a nightmare curse, these Evil God projections were actually the best nourishment for him—something he deeply coveted.

Once the projected consciousness of the God of Combat and Hunting becomes clearer, I'll carefully consider which Martial Arts skills could meld with it to create a fascinating chemical reaction. Who knows, it might even lead to another Super Kill skill...

Lu Yuan's eyes shone brightly as he pondered.

The powerful effects of [Indomitable Will] had largely dispelled his frustration from the two failed "lottery draws."

The last skill to be unlocked was almost calling out to him, but Lu Yuan was reluctant to spend more Skill Points on it. To ensure he wouldn't give in to the temptation of trying for that final skill, Lu Yuan pondered for a moment. He then decisively used the last two Skill Points he had been saving for a long time.

He focused his intent. Upgrade [Super Kill - Thousand Crows Singing at The Moon] from Lv1!

The interface flashed: LV2!

The moment the skill leveled up, Lu Yuan's brain resonated with a BUZZ.

It felt as though he had instantly stepped into the long-lost Crow Dreamscape.

He stood by the Netherworld River, surrounded by Other Shore Flowers in full bloom.

A woman in a black skirt, her figure graceful, stood quietly in the Netherworld River, her back to him.

The woman extended her fingers, paler than moonlight, and gently tapped the water surface beside her.

In an instant...

The silent waters of the vast Netherworld River boiled, transforming into countless black crows that flapped their wings and soared into the air.

The figures of these crows soon obscured the night sky.

The dreamscape dissolved into pure darkness.

Suddenly, a speck of white bloomed, and a huge, round moon reappeared in the sky.

Then, the round moon mysteriously flashed once.

SWOOSH—

The originally pristine moon had shockingly transformed into a blood-red crow's eye.

The black cluster in the center of that eye was slowly shifting downwards.

As if... it was quietly watching Lu Yuan...

Lu Yuan's eyes snapped open, breaking free from the "new version" of the Crow Dreamscape.

He suddenly realized his Spiritual Power seemed to have strengthened significantly.

He called up his panel to check.

His Intelligence, which had been 20 points after one Break the Limit, had unexpectedly increased to 21!

I used to think needing two Skill Points to level up a Super Kill skill was a bit of a rip-off, Lu Yuan muttered to himself. Looking at it now, it's an absolute steal...

He then tried to activate the now Lv2 [Super Kill - Thousand Crows Singing at The Moon].

The moment the skill activated, centered on Lu Yuan, all the air in the spacious room began to distort, and the tranquil night started to boil.

He slowly raised his right hand.

Clenching his fist...

The moment his fingers closed,

Lu Yuan saw...

It looked like he was holding a ball of "light"!

Today is little Eggy's first birthday, and I have been busy with his birthday party these past few days. After it's over, I'll start adjusting tomorrow and try to get back to the habit of updating regularly every day at midnight.
