Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Shocked, Skill Upgraded
Anticipation?
What was Huo Wu anticipating? Compared to the anger in her heart, that anticipation was insignificant.
Huo Wu covered her backside with her hands, appearing calm and composed, which was quite terrifying.
**Thousand-Year Kill +3**
Due to Mu Chen's actions, the task interface now displayed Thousand-Year Kill +3. This meant Mu Chen still needed to defeat Huo Wu three more times using the same method to complete the C-level hidden quest.
Ignoring Huo Wu's gaze, Mu Chen smirked, "I warned you to be careful, yet you're still so careless!"
Huo Wu's expression froze, feeling as if she had suffered a massive blow.
This wasn't just showing off; this was blatant arrogance! At this moment, Huo Wu was the injured party. Mu Chen, who had taken advantage of her, was acting all innocent. If this wasn't arrogance, what was?
"Protect Huo Wu!" Huo Wushuang shouted.
Upon his command, Blaze Academy shifted their formation to a defensive one, focusing on protecting Huo Wu. The six members surrounded her.
The Blaze Academy members believed that Mu Chen couldn't possibly harm their academy's belle now.
"Damn, does this mean I can't complete the task?"
Mu Chen frowned. The rewards for the C-level hidden quest were substantial, potentially allowing him to level up. However, with Blaze Academy's members encircling Huo Wu, Mu Chen couldn't get close enough to use the Thousand-Year Kill.
"His close combat is strong; attack him from a distance," Huo Wushuang ordered.
**Third Spirit Skill: Fire Crane Clone**
**Fourth Spirit Skill: Dragon Fire**
**Second Spirit Skill: Seven Star Flowing Fire**
Blaze Academy executed their strategy with precision, launching ranged attacks that blocked Mu Chen's every escape route. Even with his clones, Mu Chen couldn't evade.
"You're done for," Huo Wushuang declared confidently.
"So naive," Mu Chen replied calmly.
With a slight movement, Mu Chen deftly avoided all attacks.
Meanwhile, Mu Chen pondered how to complete his C-level hidden quest.
Blaze Academy's members guarded Huo Wu closely, preventing Mu Chen from approaching. Without getting close, he couldn't execute the Thousand-Year Kill, and without that, he couldn't complete the task.
"System, can the Thousand-Year Kill be upgraded?" Mu Chen asked.
"Ding!"
"System response: Upgrading the Thousand-Year Kill requires 100 skill points!"
"Upgrade!" Mu Chen ordered without hesitation.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, you've spent 100 skill points to upgrade the Thousand-Year Kill to True Thousand-Year Kill."
**True Thousand-Year Kill**: An upgraded version of the Thousand-Year Kill. Within a ten-meter radius, a mere finger point can execute the Thousand-Year Kill with a 100% hit rate!
"Wow, this is terrifying!"
Mu Chen was stunned. The upgraded Thousand-Year Kill had a range of ten meters.
Ten meters wasn't too long or too short, but it was more than enough for using the Thousand-Year Kill.
*Thud*
Mu Chen moved towards the Blaze Academy members.
"What's he doing?"
"Does he have a death wish?"
"Or is he more infatuated with Huo Wu than Feng Xiaotian? Ready to risk his life for her?"
Blaze Academy's members were baffled as Mu Chen advanced rapidly towards them, seemingly courting death.
**Third Spirit Skill: Firestorm Seven Star Bomb**
Despite their doubts, one member used his third spirit skill, sending seven fireballs towards Mu Chen.
"Who would like him?"
Recalling Mu Chen's actions, Huo Wu retorted with disgust.
**First Spirit Skill: Fire Howl**
**Second Spirit Skill: Fire Line Impact**
**Third Spirit Skill: Earth Flame Impact Pillar**
Facing Mu Chen's advance, Blaze Academy members who could attack from afar used their skills to stop him.
However, Mu Chen's mastery of the Wind God Leg allowed him to evade all attacks with wind-like speed.
"You won't harm my sister," Huo Wushuang, protective as a brother should be, punched at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen lightly tapped his toes, sidestepping Huo Wushuang's attack.
*Thud*
Mu Chen pointed his finger forward.
"Aah!"
Huo Wu screamed.
At the same time, the task interface updated to Thousand-Year Kill +4.
"What happened?" Huo Wushuang asked, concerned.
"Nothing!" Huo Wu blushed, puzzled and bewildered.
*Thud*
*Thud*
Seeing it work, Mu Chen didn't hesitate, pointing twice more.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, you've completed the C-level hidden quest by using the Thousand-Year Kill to defeat Huo Wu six times. Rewards: 60 skill points, 1,600,000 soul power points, Battle Skill: Rasengan, Item: Mermaid Head Spirit Bone, Item: Three-Pattern Clear Spirit Pill."
**Rasengan**: From the Naruto world. By concentrating chakra (soul power) in the hand and compressing it into a palm-sized, non-elemental chakra ball (soul power ball), it disrupts the target's chakra (soul power) upon contact.
**Mermaid Head Spirit Bone**: From a 60,000-year-old mermaid, possesses a range healing skill.
**Three-Pattern Clear Spirit Pill**: With three pill patterns, it's the highest-grade Clear Spirit Pill. Not recommended for those below the Great Soul Master (Soul Elder) rank. For a Great Soul Master (Soul Elder), it guarantees a three-level advancement.
"Such great rewards, fantastic!" Mu Chen was overjoyed, finding all the rewards useful.
But it wasn't over yet! A significant energy surged through Mu Chen, breaking through a barrier within him. The system's voice echoed again.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, your soul power has leveled up. Current level: 88 (1536/4895396)."
"Wow, leveled up. Just two more levels, and I'll be a Titled Douluo!" Mu Chen was ecstatic at the system's notification.
Just two more levels, and Mu Chen could gain a spirit ring to become a revered Titled Douluo.
*Buzz*
Meanwhile, Huo Wu, having experienced the sensation three times, couldn't understand what was happening but instinctively knew Mu Chen was to blame.
Enraged, Huo Wu slowly raised her hands. The soul power of two teammates began to augment her. Above her head, a white fireball—or rather, a white sun—formed.
"You pervert!"
Huo Wu's eyes widened in fury, roaring, "Die!"
