If anyone else had made such a suggestion, Qin Lang might have considered whether their intentions were good or bad.
But Mrs. Yunqi is such a powerful Spirit Chef, she also once gave him the test for the Second-Level Food Recommender Badge, thereâs no reason for her to harm him.
So, Qin Lang quickly withdrew the Starstone in his hand, signalled Spicy to wait, then politely turned to Yunqi, âMrs. Yunqi, why is that?â
âLucky Bite Mark is indeed a good combat skill, but its advantages and disadvantages are too obvious. There arenât many combat skills that can be matched with it, and itâs very difficult to directly awaken a compatible combat skill.â Mrs. Yunqi got straight to the point. âThird place gets 20 Training Competition Points.â
âThank you for your reminder!â Qin Langâs eyes brightened, understanding now.
If Spicy were to upgrade his star level at this moment, a random skill will appear among all combat skills, and itâs not guaranteed to be compatible with its current combat skill.
For instance, if Spicy awakens a skill akin to âFull Firepowerâ like a fire spraying ability, it would naturally be hard to combine with the âLucky Bite Markâ, thus a combined combat skill couldnât be created.
However, to want to interfere with the awakening of a new combat skill and awaken it in a certain wanted direction is not impossible.
When Dan Bao upgraded, it carried a Mind Stone, which is the best example.
There are quite a few similar props.
Although Qin Lang doesnât have one at the moment, he can exchange it for the 20 Training Competition Points earned from attaining third place at the Spirit Chef Association!
However, Starstone needs to be consumed on the spot and cannot be taken away.
If Qin Lang makes this choice, he will have to give the remaining Starstone to Dan Bao to absorb.
âWhat do you two think?â After analyzing the situation, he turned to the two little ones, deciding to go with their opinions.
Spicyâs face looked torn. It was just one step from two stars and it couldnât wait to upgrade immediately. But thinking about the difficulty of having a combined combat skill if the awakened combat skill didnât match, it wasnât so eager to upgrade anymore.
In this dilemma, the light orbs above its head turned green and red alternately.
Finally, Spicy made a decision.
âChachaka!â
Give the Starstone to Dan Bao first!
âGululu!â
Iâm fine with anything!
Dan Bao nodded agreeably. As it looked at the Starstone in Qin Langâs hand, it couldnât help but swallow.
It had been quite a while since it last absorbed a Starstone. Although it willingly gave it to its friends who havenât reached two stars yet, it still coveted the Starstone.
After all, Starstone had a natural attraction to Food Spirits.
âIf thatâs the case, then itâs settled.â
Qin Lang gave the Starstone to Dan Bao. After the absorption was complete, he put the two pieces of Starstone back into the base of the alloy box together.
Yunqi smiled, her gaze turning to Xu Qingmo.
The four Starstones belonging to Zhu Quan had also been completely absorbed.
Until all the Starstones were completely absorbed, no Star Hunter appeared.
This slightly relaxed the two of them who had been on edge.
All the Starstones inside the Association have been completely absorbed.
The operation of the Star Hunter this time has failed.
âQin Lang, what are you looking at?â
On the downhill cable car, Zhao Chen curiously leaned over to Qin Lang.
âIâm looking at the Associationâs Competition Points Exchange interface.â Qin Lang pointedat the screen on his phone and smiled. âThe 20 Training Competition Points I gained from obtaining third place have arrived, and it can help me exchange for the treasures to help Spicy upgrade.â
âLet me give you some advice!â Zhao Chen took out his own phone, then opened the corresponding exchange interface.
Although he doesnât have any competition points, he doesnât need any permissions just to browse the interface.
Both Du Weiwei and Qi Xiaoyu, who were sitting upfront, also started helping out.
âThank you.â Qin Lang didnât reject their kindness and continued his search for the neat things he could redeem with 20 training competition points, head bowed.
Dan Bao and Spicy landed one on each of his shoulders.
Earlier, Qin Lang had won the Mind Stone in a fun competition organized by the Shi Qi Group. Heâd led Dan Bao to the first place there and the stone could now be exchanged for just 10 training competition points.
Apart from this, there were Martial Arts Stones and Nature Stones of the same value.
The names gave away their uses: they were gems meant to solidify the newly awakened battle skills of the Food spirit into either the Martial Arts or Nature categories.
But their full names were actually the First-Level Mind Stone, First-Level Martial Arts Stone, and First-Level Nature Stone, collectively known as First-Level Skill Stones.
Above them, there were second- and third-level skill stones.
The Second-Level Skill Stones could solidify more specific types of skills.
For example, the Second-Level Nature Stone: Flame could turn awakened skills into flame-type Nature battle skills. The Second-Level Martial Arts Stone: Charge could codify those skills into charge-type Martial-Arts battle skills. The Second-Level Mind Stone: Illusion could fixate the skills into illusion-type Mind skills.
On the other hand, Third-Level Skill Stones could directly specify a particular battle skill to awaken.
Without a doubt, the higher-grade Skill Stones were also more expensive.
The exchange points for Third-Level Skill Stones were at least in triple digits. The exact value greatly varied depending on the skill, and Qin Lang even saw some four-digit ones out there. They were far beyond what he could afford now.
The values of the Second-Level Skill Stones fluctuated depending on the type, too, but quite a few were in double digits, which meant that Qin Lang could trade for several different kinds.
After a round of discussion, Qin Lang finally set his sights on a Skill Stone that happened to require exactly 20 training event points to redeem.
Second-Level Martial Arts Stone: Mobility.
Mobility-type Martial Arts skills could greatly enhance a Food Spiritâs agility, compensating for the limitations of the Lucky Bite Mark.
This was not the only option. For instance, Qin Lang could choose the Second-Level Mind Stone: Illusion to confuse his opponents by illusion-type skills, allowing Spicy to approach them. Other Skill Stones were also pretty decent.
But all of those cost more than 20 points.
âThis is it.â Qin Lang finally clicked âconfirm exchangeâ. âThe delivery is quite fast. We can receive it once we get off the cable car.â
âYour Spicy is just a bit away from reaching two stars, right?â Zhao Chen felt generous. âHow about my Yangyang has a Spirit Battle with it?â
âWham!â Yangyangâs eyes were burning with strong will to fight.
âBoom!â
With a dull thud, Yangyang landed heavily, its body marked with bite marks. One of them was radiating colorful glow which was slowly fading.
âIt took effect after only three bites, youâre quite unlucky!â Qi Xiaoyu laughed the liver-faced Zhao Chen, and totally forgot about her painful experience when the bite took effect with just a single bite.
Qin Lang ignored the laughing duo, watching with trepidation as Spicy absorbed Star Power in the air, the star growing bright with harsh white light.
A pentagonal gem hung on Spicyâs body, with a light that looked like a fist mark in it. At this moment, bathed in soft white light, the gem quietly melted away. The fist-like light fell into the glow, merging into the second star Spicy had split from itself.
âCrack!â
The next moment after the white light dispersed, Spicy disappeared in a flash and the very next moment, he found himself tucked in Qin Langâs arms. Looking happy with himself, Spicy caught Qin Langâs eye.
