Before the awakening, Old Jin had already told Yun You that when entering the Sea of Souls, the most noticeable part of the body would be the part related to the Talent Ability.

The young Death God who had just awakened the "Palm Helicopter" talent felt it most clearly in his right hand.

As for Nocturne, who possessed a purple talent, it was an intense sensation in all ten fingers.

As for Yun You...

Although her physical perception became quite distinct, her brain could feel every drop of water in the sea, sensing the force and direction of each wave.

Because of this, she was certain that her Talent Ability must be related to her brain.

But saying it like this was still a bit vague, and Old Jin probably wouldn't understand either.

So Yun You simply closed her eyes and said, "Whatever the ability is, it has to be tested at some point; I'll try it first..."

But Old Jin quickly interrupted her action.

"Don't rush to try it, girl."

"Talent Ability has a cooldown time; if you use it now, you won't know when you can use it again."

"Moreover, you haven't figured out what the cost is; if the cost is too severe, causing you to lose your combat ability for a long time, that would be a big problem."

"Don't underestimate the 'cost'; sometimes, it's much more serious than a physical price."

"Besides..."

As he spoke, Old Jin suddenly changed his tone, said with a chuckle: "For a Talent Ability like yours related to the brain, the 'scene' of first use is extremely important."

"If you just use it casually like that, you won't be able to grasp its nature, and even every use afterward would be confusing, severely affecting its performance."

"Only by activating it in 'combat' can you fully understand your talent and master it!"

"And right now, you just have such an opportunity, an exceptionally rare combat opportunity..."

At this point, Old Jin finally revealed his intentions.

And Yun You naturally realized: her expensive mentor had been coming up with reasons for so long just to lead up to this battle...

"Details."

Yun You stretched her limbs a bit and asked, "What's this situation exactly?"

Seeing the young girl didn't refuse, Old Jin grinned and concisely explained the background of the situation, from his debate with Li Cang about whether talent determines the future to the bet they made, providing an overview.

...

"So, I'm the loser Old Jin is using to prove... 'a person with a lame talent isn't necessarily a loser'?"

Yun You crossed her arms, glanced at Nocturne not far away, and said, "And the person I'm about to beat up is the opposite of me—a supreme genius?"

"Although that's the gist...."

Old Jin waved his hand and emphasized: "But your mentor has never seen you as a loser; make that clear... And to me, the other side doesn't seem like a genius, at least not more than you."

"Oh, it's all about the same, I get it."

Yun You didn't mind at all, instead, she teased: "But your bet is quite outrageous, huh, he bets something so big, but you... just bow, apologize, and say something a little embarrassing, and it's over."

"I really doubt that guy's intelligence... If the high-tier Apprentice Death Gods are this level of intelligence, I feel humanity has no future."

The young girl sighed, pretending to be regretful.

"Is it possible that it's not his stupidity, but rather that your mentor's face is quite valuable?"

Old Jin folded his hands behind his back, speaking seriously: "That's why he's willing to spend a lot, just to bet with me; if he actually won, he'd hit the jackpot."

"So valuable?! Then should I not take it..."

Yun You feigned a shocked expression, and said timidly: "I... I'm afraid of losing and making Master lose face, that wouldn't be good..."

"That's enough... Girl, are you really the type to be scared by this reason?"

Old Jin was the first to break character and couldn't help but "tsk," teasing: "Let's just leave it at that..."

"I respect your decision, it's up to you whether you want to fight or not."

"If you're willing to fight, then just relax and fight, of course, winning is happy, but if you lose, I won't blame you, after all, this bet is the one I accepted, and I should bear the consequences myself."

"Furthermore... it's just an apology in the end, doesn't matter."

"That old fool Li Cang always thinks your mentor cares about face, but I really don't, just like you, girl."

"Old Jin is right."

Yun You chuckled and agreed, "That thing can't be eaten; losing it doesn't matter, right?"

"Since Old Jin put it that way, then let's take it!"

Indeed, people of the same kind flock together; neither mentor nor disciple cares much about the opinions of others; they are thick-skinned and not afraid of scolding...

"But back to the point, although we originally belong to the type who likes fighting, if there's no money to earn, it feels a bit dull..."

"Old Jin, this round, do we have that..."

Yun You rubbed her hands, only talking halfway, but her desire to cash in on the reward was clearly conveyed.

"You girl, you're really all about money, always going on about money, money..."

Old Jin laughed and scolded her, but there wasn't even a hint of rebuke.

Working for money, is perfectly normal; talking about ideals without material basis is unrealistic.

Plus, having goals is actually a good thing, a person with a clear goal has plenty of motivation to move forward.

"Of course I've prepared a reward for you, and this thing is Li Cang's stake."

Old Jin made a "pistol" gesture with his hand, smiled, and said: "Kiss of Nothingness—a top-of-the-line police-level prototype gun, developed by the largest arms dealer in Nest City—Military Technology Company."

"For me, this thing might be a bit fancy, not very practical... But for you, it's an absolute 'Immortal Weapon.'

"If taken out to sell, it probably would fetch 30 million, and there would still be people fighting for it."

"Girl, if you win, this thing is all yours."

"...!"

Upon hearing this, Yun You suddenly widened her eyes, and her beautiful eyes glistened with incredulity.

She knew Old Jin would certainly give her a lot of money this time, but she never expected her mentor could directly use Li Cang's stake as a reward.

Top police-level gun, what's the concept?

That's a weapon even the most elite SWAT team in Nest City isn't qualified to receive.

Only senior officers of the city's highest police bureau are equipped with such firearms for self-defense and handling emergency situations.

Old Jin was right; for Yun You, this is absolutely an Immortal Weapon...

"Are you sure?!!"

Yun You rubbed her ears and asked again.

"Of course."

Old Jin nodded with a smile and replied: "I won't lie to a student."

"Got it."

Yun You stopped wasting words and rolled up her sleeves.

"Leave it to your disciple then."

"Just watch me smash him!"

At that moment, the young girl's initiative and battle intent instantly surged a hundredfold, a thousandfold!

Those scarlet eyes seemed to be flashing with a fierce light enough to tear Nocturne and his mentor Li Cang to pieces.
