308: Don’t break through the solid sinking yet! (Monthly ticket requested!)
Supreme Lord Lao still has some offensive capabilities, doesn't he?
Jiang Yuan didn't bother with him. Instead, he stroked his chin, watching Supreme Lord Lao leisurely refine Shen.
It's a pity this is the space within the Martial Arts Arena. Otherwise, Supreme Lord Lao might have refined something else.
Of course, that male monkey with Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze is another matter entirely.
Based on Supreme Lord Lao's combat power, Jiang Yuan deeply suspected whether the monkey brother's Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze was a cheat specifically given by Supreme Lord Lao.
He could see now that while Supreme Lord Lao's two damage skills, one lightning and one fire, had decent damage...
Of course, it was probably because he didn't have such a need when making the card, only needing Supreme Lord Lao's alchemy ability, which led to Supreme Lord Lao's insufficient attack strength.
But Supreme Lord Lao's attack strength wasn't low; it was just that the opponent was wearing the Pale Floating Pagoda, which had terrifying defense.
Is the Pale Floating Pagoda weak?
Not at all!
It only died after enduring Zhao Gongming's full-power attack and Nezha's third critical hit arrow. There's no way it could be weak.
Its defense is considered top-tier among everyone in this second battlefield.
But if the person is not capable, it's all useless.
Snow Mastiff Armor, also a purple quality card, would have similar defensive capabilities if two different people used these two different cards.
The problem, however, is that Zhan Youqing and Shi Zhuan are two different people.
The Pale Floating Pagoda has fixed attack and defense attributes; it's almost the same no matter who uses it.
But the Snow Mastiff Armor is different. The attack and defense values of the Snow Mastiff Armor are increased by the user's mental power.
In other words, the higher the mental power, the higher the attack and defense values of the Snow Mastiff Armor.
Without a doubt, Zhan Youqing's mental power is higher than Shi Zhuan's.
If we compare the two armors using game values...
The Pale Floating Pagoda has a high bottom line, but its upper limit depends on the user. The user's improvement to the Pale Floating Pagoda's upper limit is not as great as the improvement to the Snow Mastiff Armor.
While the Snow Mastiff Armor's bottom line is not as high as the Pale Floating Pagoda's, a good user can raise the Snow Mastiff Armor's upper limit much higher and further.
This is the difference between the two sets of armor.
The reason the Snow Mastiff Armor was able to defeat the Pale Floating Pagoda was purely because Zhan Youqing's strength was better than Shi Zhuan's.
Before, she just didn't have a good mech.
After all, the Martial Arts Academy's mech card level is not worth mentioning.
If the Martial Arts Academy's mech card level was good, Zhan Youqing wouldn't have asked him, from another school, for help.
Yet, even such a Pale Floating Pagoda could only passively defend against Supreme Lord Lao's attacks.
Or rather, Supreme Lord Lao's attack method was more effective against the Pale Floating Pagoda.
After all, once the Pale Floating Pagoda switches to attack mode, its defensive power will greatly decrease.
Without its defensive power, the Pale Floating Pagoda would find it very difficult to cope with either the continuous Taiqing Divine Thunder or the Six Ding Divine Fire burning on its body.
Furthermore, these two attacks also come with mental power attacks.
Attacks directly targeting mental power are something the Pale Floating Pagoda's defense cannot withstand.
So, in Jiang Yuan's opinion, he had no reason to pay attention to Shi Zhuan.
In at most one minute, Shi Zhuan would be refined by Supreme Lord Lao.
However, Shi Zhuan didn't realize this problem and continued to "persuade" Jiang Yuan.
"This fool, if he continues like this without fighting back, he will eventually fail due to exhaustion of stamina."
Dong Zimin was exasperated: "How can someone with such intelligence be worthy of using the Pale Floating Pagoda?"
"I feel like using the Five-Colored Floating Pagoda Heavy Armor, which is in the same series as him, is really embarrassing!"
Dong Zimin was furious, and Guan Chutian also bowed her head and rubbed her forehead, not wanting to look at the situation on the field.
"It seems this will be a long battle."
Yu Chengtian laughed heartily, rubbed his bald head, and said.
"Yes, if he doesn't actively counterattack, then he can only wait for his stamina to be depleted."
After Miao Xinghuo finished speaking, Jin Lingyu also pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and nodded: "I just hope they don't affect the battles in the first battlefield later."
As soon as Jin Lingyu finished speaking, the Martial Arts Arena on the stage suddenly disappeared.
The Bagua Furnace on the ground, Supreme Lord Lao, the alchemy furnace, including Nezha and Zhao Gongming who were watching the show, all disappeared.
Only Jiang Yuan and Shi Zhuan remained on the stage.
"Is this... the battle over?"
Yu Chengtian's hand, which was stroking his bald head, paused, and he asked in confusion.
"Probably."
Jin Lingyu nodded, then looked at Shi Zhuan, who was kneeling on the field, and Jiang Yuan, who was standing in front of Shi Zhuan.
"It should be that old man who has some other means," Miao Xinghuo glanced at Jiang Yuan, then spoke with uncertainty.
The disappearance of the Martial Arts Arena meant that one of the two had died.
And that person obviously couldn't be Jiang Yuan.
If it wasn't Jiang Yuan, then it could only be Shi Zhuan.
Shi Zhuan, who was defending, suddenly died. Eight out of ten, it was some special method of that old man that directly brought Shi Zhuan down.
For example...
"A burst after continuous damage stacking?"
Guan Chutian also looked up and asked in confusion.
"Who knows? Anyway, we all watched carefully, and besides that old man, no one else made a move."
Yu Chengtian spread his hands and smiled.
"Anyway, the result is obvious, the winner has been decided."
Jin Lingyu also smiled. No matter what, his academy's student defeating a student from another academy was indeed a very happy event.
Guan Chutian lowered her head again, really not wanting to lose face.
Although she had already lost a lot of it because of Shi Zhuan.
On the stage, after glancing at Shi Zhuan, Jiang Yuan walked off the stage.
He still had to trick... and talk business with Zhan Youqing.
As for Shi Zhuan's bet?
Shi Zhuan couldn't afford to lose face. Even if he didn't act gracefully, Da Xia Academy, in order not to lose face, would choose to make him appear graceful.
The rewards wouldn't escape!
Shi Zhuan looked up, his eyes sinister, at Jiang Yuan's retreating back.
If he killed Jiang Yuan here, he would definitely be controlled on the spot.
However, he wouldn't necessarily die, after all...
Shi Zhuan's eyes flickered. Just as he was about to make a move, two purple quality cards appeared in Jiang Yuan's hand.
Purple light shone, and Supreme Lord Lao and Zhao Gongming appeared beside Jiang Yuan at the same time.
"By the way, is there still luck left?"
Jiang Yuan suddenly remembered something as he walked off the stage.
Before, he had Zhao Gongming accumulate a lot of luck. All the luck absorbed from others by Autumn Plague - Five Ghosts Carrying Wealth had been accumulated by Zhao Gongming.
It was for making cards.
And now there was a new use.
"Supreme Lord Lao, is your alchemy success rate related to luck?"
"Of course, it is."
Supreme Lord Lao stroked his beard and nodded: "Sometimes, even a sure-fire refinement can encounter small problems due to luck."
Supreme Lord Lao's eyes were deep, as if he recalled the times his furnace exploded, and how his two attendants, Jin Ling and Yin Ling, were covered in soot.
Hmm, it's time to tell Mu Qianshan to call... make his own attendants too.
That way, he won't have to do everything himself.
Oh, and the Banana Fan needs to be made first. Without wind, the burning of Six Ding Divine Fire is sometimes not enough.
Supreme Lord Lao was deep in thought, while Jiang Yuan turned to look at Zhao Gongming, not noticing Supreme Lord Lao's expression.
"The luck is gone."
"Huh?"
Jiang Yuan stopped in his tracks, looking at Zhao Gongming in surprise.
"Didn't you say before that the luck absorbed was more than what I had accumulated in eighteen years?"
Jiang Yuan was indeed puzzled. After all, Zhao Gongming had said before that he had a lot of luck stored there.
Jiang Yuan had originally thought he could squander it for a while, but now you're telling me it's gone?
"It's really gone."
Zhao Gongming spread his hands helplessly, but his eyes glanced at Supreme Lord Lao beside him.
Are you kidding? Just a purple quality card and you want to invite this great deity.
If it weren't for so much luck pushing it, he would probably only be able to invite him in his current state when it was a red quality card.
After seeing Zhao Gongming's gaze, Jiang Yuan also glanced at Supreme Lord Lao beside him, then fell silent.
Sure enough, was it the same as when he made the Nezha card?
If it weren't for the luck forcefully pushing it, it probably couldn't have been made at all.
"Alright then, how much luck is left?" Jiang Yuan sighed helplessly and asked Zhao Gongming again.
"None."
Zhao Gongming spread his hands again: "The luck of that guy we fought just now was almost completely absorbed during our last battle with him, and it hasn't recovered yet."
Zhao Gongming wasn't lying; his reserves of luck were truly gone.
Before, because Shi Ji had the skill to add bad luck to the opponent, he was able to transfer more luck using Autumn Plague - Five Ghosts Carrying Wealth, and even less luck was left for the opponent.
That's why he was able to accumulate so much luck in such a short time.
But Supreme Lord Lao squandered all that luck in one go, which also made Zhao Gongming a bit helpless.
"Then, if Supreme Lord Lao makes a pill that can break through bottlenecks, is the success rate high?"
"If you add your red quality heavenly material and earthly treasure, the success rate should be around fifty percent."
Supreme Lord Lao also came back to his senses at this moment: "However, even with my skills and the Bagua Furnace, it only increases the success rate by twenty percent."
"I see."
Jiang Yuan nodded, then fell silent.
Seventy percent success rate, that's not too high.
Jiang Yuan remained silent and continued forward, while Shi Zhuan on the stage angrily hammered the ground.
"Damn it, such bad luck? How did this guy suddenly materialize his Card Spirit?"
Shi Zhuan looked at Jiang Yuan's increasingly distant back with resentment, his heart filled with anger.
Just wait, there will be a day when I get out!
"You want to directly break through to Shen?"
"Huh?"
Jiang Yuan turned his head and saw Li Yueying appear beside him.
"That's right."
Jiang Yuan nodded: "My myasthenia has been cured, and I've reached Late Stage. Plus, with the bet Shi Zhuan will give me, and the card-making materials Zhan Youqing will give me, it should be enough for me to break through to Shen."
"Do you want to hear my suggestion?"
Li Yueying smiled gently and asked Jiang Yuan.
"Of course, you are my teacher."
Jiang Yuan also smiled, immediately nodded and said: "I still need to listen to my teacher's advice, what if it benefits me greatly?"
"Not 'what if'."
Li Yueying also laughed: "Your cultural class grades are too poor. Old Principal has already said that you need to make up for your cultural class grades during this period."
"Ah?"
Jiang Yuan was stunned, his smile turning a bit ugly: "This... that's not necessary, right?"
"Originally, I also thought it wasn't necessary, but after hearing that you want to break through to Shen at this time, I think it is necessary," Li Yueying said to Jiang Yuan with a smile.
"What do you mean?"
"Don't you know that once you break through to Shen, there will be no entry requirements for either the grotto-heavens connected to other races or the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield?"
"I know that."
"If you know, why are you in such a hurry to break through?"
Li Yueying poked Jiang Yuan's forehead: "Why are you in such a hurry to break through instead of taking this time to harvest some spoils of war in the grotto-heavens or Ten Thousand Races Battlefield that restrict entry below Shen?"
"Also, continuously using Star Power or heavenly material and earthly treasure to break through will have drawbacks. Although your unstable Star Power was suppressed by the heavenly material and earthly treasure I gave you last time, it's best not to continue like this during this period."
"Hmm..."
Jiang Yuan was a little tempted.
Not for anything else, but mainly because he could go to the grotto-heavens of other races or the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield to harvest a wave of spoils.
Being invincible among those of the same rank, he was quite confident in this regard!
Although it was a bit inflated, the Linglong Pagoda alone was enough to protect him.
In the grotto-heavens and Ten Thousand Races Battlefield where only Da Liang strength can enter.
"Teacher's words also make sense. Besides, aren't you going to the Element Spirit Race's grotto-heaven for me to copy some lightning-attribute skills? If you go after breaking through, without strength restrictions, wouldn't the danger level be too high?"
"That's true."
Jiang Yuan nodded, then made a decision.
His myasthenia had been cured, so there was no need to rush the breakthrough.
First, he would resolve Zhao Gongming's matter, then harvest some spoils of war before talking about breakthrough.
Anyway, his luck was too low now, and Supreme Lord Lao's alchemy success rate wasn't high. If the pill that could break through bottlenecks failed, that would be truly troublesome.
"It's good to take this time to settle down."
Supreme Lord Lao also nodded: "I also need to use this time to learn and get to know the heavenly material and earthly treasure of your world."
"Didn't Shi Ji also need to learn Necromancy?"
"Yes, all of these are in the library. You should also study cultural knowledge," Li Yueying nodded.
"Cultivation improved by pills or heavenly material and earthly treasure is ultimately unstable. Settle down, you can never have too much knowledge."
Supreme Lord Lao stroked his beard with a smile: "Just in time, I also have some equipment that needs to be made during this period."
"Then I won't break through for now."
Jiang Yuan nodded. Just as he finished speaking, Mu Qianshan excitedly rushed over.
"Mu Qianshan, good news!"
