969: Poor teammates, find teammates

Compared to the attribute boost brought by this set of combat gear, its appearance was secondary.

Du Xingchen didn't know that this was a rush job designed by Ye Tian.

Since they were competing for the Power Of Faith, they naturally had to let the world know of their existence.

When people like Du Xingchen wore the combat gear he provided and stood in the first place, people's eyes would fall on the combat gear, see the human face on it, and the harvest of the Power Of Faith would definitely not be small!

And this face was not Ye Tian's own face.

This was a fabricated face, a fabricated character.

Putting his own face on the combat uniform was, after all, too demeaning to his status as a God.

Just like other Gods in the World, they also knew that this method could acquire faith, but they simply couldn't bring themselves to do it.

Because that kind of method was like a top luxury brand selling pesticides.

Even if they competed for the first or leading position in this market, it could only attract praise from farmers, and if they couldn't even get the leading position, it would be even more embarrassing.

Ultimately, regardless of the outcome, it would definitely affect their main faith customers!

Ye Tian considered this point, knowing that it was not good for him to show his face, but he also didn't want to miss the huge market for the Power Of Faith.

Therefore, creating a fake identity, a sub-brand with no connection, was very suitable.

Anyway, the final Power Of Faith would still feedback into him.

As for why other Gods didn't learn from Ye Tian and create a fake identity to collect faith from people of different social strata, it can only be said that this was a restriction placed on those Gods by the worlds will.

The worlds will was very good at anti-monopoly.

What it needed was for the strength of all Gods to be in a state where they could check each other. If a God collected all the Power Of Faith from people of all social strata and gathered it to themselves, other Gods would inevitably be suppressed, and the entire World would be difficult to develop, which was not what the worlds will wanted to see.

And Ye Tian, he didn't have this restriction.

Other Gods who wanted to create fake identities to harvest faith all needed to pass the strict scrutiny of the worlds will.

Ye Tian, this unregistered person, only needed to provide the covering points to successfully build a fake identity to obtain the Power Of Faith.

"System, can this combat gear be worn in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination?" Du Xingchen asked a question he was very concerned about.

In response, Ye Tian gave a fixed two-word answer: "Can."

This must be possible.

Otherwise, if even this couldn't be done, there would be no need to issue this reward.

Upon receiving this reply, Du Xingchen was secretly excited and clenched his fists, directly taking several sets of combat gear to find Wen Xiu Cheng and others.

When Du Xingchen arrived, Wen Xiu Cheng was still fusing Soul Cards.

From the beginning until now, more than half a day had passed.

This was considered a very long time for Fusion in the history of Soul Card Masters.

However, considering Wen Xiu Cheng's current Realm and the age of the cards he was absorbing and fusing, everything seemed reasonable again.

At the moment Du Xingchen arrived, Wen Xiu Cheng had already entered the final process.

A moment later, as the last trace of energy from the card entered Wen Xiu Cheng's body, the Dragon Martial Soul behind him suddenly raised its head and roared out!

That rich and magnificent roar made the surrounding exotic beasts above the twenty-thousand-year level restless and roar repeatedly!

Wen Xiu Cheng slowly opened his eyes and looked up to see Du Xingchen, Liangcai Sword, and other teammates waiting for him with concern.

"Wen Xiu Cheng, how do you feel?" Qing Youyu was the first to ask.

Currently, it seemed that the Fusion was successful, but since there was no precedent for this in the World, everyone was very concerned about whether there were any other negative effects.

"Very good." Wen Xiu Cheng took a deep breath, and a magnificent aura emanated from his body.

Clearly, he was only a Five-Star Soul Card Master, possessing only five cards, but the pressure he gave off was no weaker than a Six-Star Soul Card Master!

It was as if the combined ages of the six Soul Cards of a Six-Star Soul Card Master were just equal to the ages of Wen Xiu Cheng's five Soul Cards!

"Just by fusing this Soul Card, the Cultivation progress of the Soul Card has advanced to 20%! I feel like I don't fear even facing a Six-Star Soul Card Master!" As Wen Xiu Cheng spoke, a faint phantom of armor vaguely appeared on his body, fitting his figure.

This was the initial form of the warrior armor.

It needed further guidance of the power of the fifth Soul Card in the future to truly take shape!

Just looking at this step, there would be no surprises in the subsequent surge in strength!

"Xingchen, I've noted this kindness!" Wen Xiu Cheng looked at Du Xingchen, understanding who had brought him this kind of strength.

As he spoke, a hint of guilt appeared on his face: "The things I said to you when I was Captain before were me being stupid, it was all my fault. From now on, I'll listen to everything you say!"

Wen Xiu Cheng's voice was sincere and serious.

This display made Qing Youyu and Liangcai Sword's eyes show a hint of surprise.

Since they met, they had never seen Wen Xiu Cheng apologize to anyone in this manner, nor had they seen him give this kind of formal affirmation to others.

This guy had always been very arrogant, but now he had lowered his head in front of Du Xingchen.

However, upon further reflection, Du Xingchen deserved this kind of affirmation and treatment!

He didn't rely on strength to make Wen Xiu Cheng submit, but on that dedication to his teammates, that righteousness!

As for Wen Xiu Cheng's performance, Du Xingchen had anticipated it long ago, and on the surface, he smiled nonchalantly: "Wen Boss, don't say that. This Storm Bull Demon was most suitable for you. If it had become someone else's Soul Card, it would have been a loss for our entire team."

"Now that you, Wen Boss, have successfully fused and absorbed it, this is a fortunate event for our entire team!"

Du Xingchen himself had no reservations about these few teammates.

Because, having read the original work thoroughly, he knew that the investment in these people would ultimately yield rewards.

And their upper limit was becoming Gods!

To put it plainly, this was an investment that wouldn't lose money.

Under such circumstances, it was natural to invest without reservation to obtain better returns.

As Du Xingchen's words fell, it again moved Wen Xiu Cheng, and even the teammates next to him nodded slightly, their recognition of this new Captain increased significantly.

"Come, I've prepared some things for everyone, you can try them." Du Xingchen took the opportunity to take out several sets of Ye God combat gear from his storage ring.

"Combat uniform?" At first glance, everyone recognized this thing.

Mainly because this kind of thing had high recognition, and the recognition of this conventional style of combat gear was even more distinct.

"This set of combat gear can enhance our strength." Du Xingchen nodded while explaining the purpose of this item.

His words made a hint of surprise flash in the eyes of his teammates.

"Can enhance strength?" Liangcai Sword said, and was the first to put on the combat gear.

And the moment he put on the combat gear, he clearly felt a boost in strength!

"It's true! After putting this on, I even feel that it's easier to mobilize my Martial Soul power!" Liangcai Sword exclaimed.

The teammates next to him followed suit and put on the combat gear.

And then there were continuous exclamations.

It wasn't that they hadn't worn combat gear that could boost their strength, but it was the first time they had encountered a set that could enhance their strength so significantly and clearly!

"Can this thing also be worn in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination?" After experiencing it for a while, Liangcai Sword asked a very crucial question.

Generally speaking, the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination only allowed Soul Card Masters to use power originating from their own bodies.

Things like external objects could not be used.

For example, card equipment.

If card equipment could be opened up, then the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination would directly turn into a money-spending competition.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems." Du Xingchen reassured them.

Combat gear in this World was equivalent to skins in a game, and there were no restrictions on this in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination.

Basically, all major forces had prepared a set for their own Children.

The combat gear provided by those major forces to their descendants had some strength boosts, which was an tacit understanding among the major forces.

Mainly because the boost in overall strength from combat gear was very small, and the research and development cost was very high. The best and most expensive set of combat gear on the market currently was probably the effect of a 10-point attack boost from a skin in a certain MOBA game.

Therefore, in this kind of competition, everyone wouldn't care too much.

Liangcai Sword and others were aware that the strength boost to themselves from this far exceeded the combat gear on the market, which was why they asked this question.

However, the System had already given Du Xingchen the answer before, so his answer was very straightforward and decisive.

They were relying on a little external force, but other forces were also frantically boosting their respective descendants with external force within the feasible range, it was just that their boosts were limited.

It could only be said that relying on the System, this great Da Shan, the resources obtained were much better than those from major forces like the Divine Hall or Demon Hall!

While everyone was getting familiar with their respective combat gear, everyone's thoughts gradually turned to the increasingly approaching Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination.

"Xingchen, the team for the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination requires at least eight people. We only have five people now, plus Ning Bing who is lying in the academy, that's only six people. That means we still need at least two more teammates to participate in this Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination. We should seriously consider recruiting teammates."

In fact, recruiting new teammates was a problem that had always troubled the protagonist team.

Now that Moyun was forced to withdraw, plus Ning Bing, they only had six people in total, which meant there were still two teammate slots remaining.

"This matter, the Dean should help us solve it, right?" Liangcai Sword spoke at this moment, saying with some uncertainty.

Earlier, the Dean had said that regarding the eighth teammate, he would help them find one before the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination.

Therefore, everyone hadn't thought about it.

"Even if the Dean helps us find one, that's only one. There is still one teammate slot that we need to find, and time is very tight." Qing Youyu spoke calmly, clarifying the situation.

Hearing this, Du Xingchen slightly pondered while stroking his chin.

In fact, in the original work, among the eight-person team of the entire protagonist team, the eighth teammate was the Goddess who joined the team halfway after the protagonist team arrived in the Outer Domain.

From all aspects, the Goddess was very suitable for the identity of a member of the protagonist team.

Under Moyun's persuasion, the Goddess gave up her identity as a member of the God's Temple First Team and joined.

It was also because the Goddess appeared within the protagonist team and became a part of it, so when the protagonist team finally competed for first place in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination, the Divine Hall did not get angry seeing that the Goddess was one of their own people.

Now, it was obviously impossible.

The Goddess would not join his team, that woman and Moyun were already linked.

He needed to find two new teammates!
