Chapter 53 Bronze Level, Lava Cave (4,000 words, please vote)

 After returning from Yaodu College, Su Yuan returned to his normal study life.

Although it is a special enrollment, you still have to take the classes you should take.

Courses such as "Dayan Geography" and "Blue Star Common Language" are not just for the college entrance examination, but because they are used.

As for skills training and other courses, you don’t need to take them. You can practice star power with all your strength in order to advance to the bronze level as soon as possible.

Not many people in the college knew that Su Yuan went to Demon City to take the special recruitment assessment, but as soon as the results of Su Yuan's passing the assessment came out, Guangchuan No. 4 Middle School and even the Guangchuan City Education Bureau immediately launched a vigorous publicity campaign!

Firecrackers are blasting and gongs and drums are noisy!

In front of the teaching building of No. 4 Middle School, the banners that originally congratulated Chen Jiujun on becoming a special enrollment student in Wanzhou were moved aside, and the C seat was given up, replaced by a banner by Su Yuan:

“Congratulations to our schoolmate Su Yuan for successfully passing the Yaodu Special Recruitment Assessment with excellent results and becoming a special recruitment student of Yaodu College!”

too exaggerated!

That’s not all, many local companies in Guangchuan have even approached Su Yuan to endorse him.

Forget about "Nine Walnuts", "The Show of Emperor Flowers", etc., even "Concentrated Jiuwei Dihuang Pills" were also found...

Now in Guangchuan City, who doesn't know that there is a demon named "Su Yuan" in No. 4 Middle School?

Su Yuan certainly didn't want to be so high-profile, but even the opportunity to go to the Demon City was given by Wang Haiping. If the Education Bureau wanted to promote Su Yuan, it couldn't stop him. It was good that he didn't have to cooperate with the publicity.

After a full week or two, the two topics "Special recruitment of Su Yuan in the Demon City" and "Three special recruitments in one city" finally came down from the hot search list in Guangchuan City.

Time passes, and in the blink of an eye it is mid-July, and more than a month has passed since the college entrance examination in early June.

 During this period, there is a lot of excitement outside with all kinds of things going on, such as college entrance examinations, application filling, admissions, graduation trips.

 But Su Yuan seemed to be isolated from the world. Apart from eating and sleeping every day, he went to a professional training center near home to absorb and refine star power.

There are four or five such training halls even in Guangchuan City. They are places dedicated to training. They are quiet and equipped with basic barriers.

 It is not very convenient to practice at home all the time. First, there are parents at home, and guests come over from time to time.

 Second, sometimes if the star power is not well controlled, the room will be messed up or even the furniture may be damaged.

Although there is a fee for training in the training hall, Su Yuan has sold several bronze-level star cores and has more than ten or two hundred thousand, so he is not short of this money for the time being.

The training center Su Yuan chose is called Panda, mainly because it is close to home and can be reached in 15 minutes.

The boss saw that it was Su Yuan who came to practice. Although it was not completely free, he directly discounted the fracture price and just took the opportunity to run a small advertisement.

 “Panda Cultivation, the choice for top special admissions students!”

 …

At noon that day, there was a VIP training room in Panda Training Hall.

Accompanied by a high-pitched phoenix cry, a strong spatial fluctuation filled the entire training room.

Su Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his eyes overflowing with brilliance and divine light!

 “Finally, bronze level!”

Feeling the powerful star power surging within his body, Su Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Since he absorbed a large amount of Tiangan fruit in the sacred tree secret realm, he has reached the ninth level limit.

Just to break through to the bronze level and become a real star card master, this step has stumped many people, it is really not easy!

More than two months have passed now. After practicing crazily day and night, I finally broke through to the bronze level before the academy started!

After a while, after calming down his excitement, Su Yuan sat down cross-legged again and entered the state of inward vision.

 The star power cyclone on the chest expands greatly, and the total amount and intensity of the star power are greatly increased by one or two times!

If we were to face the golden-eyed silver-winged tiger in the sixth wave of the Requiem Xuan Burial Monument now, we would definitely be sure of it, and it would not be as reluctant as before.

 “However, this is not over yet…”

  Bronze level is the official start of the star card master's journey. After being promoted to Bronze level, as expected, he got 5 new skill slots.

The ring in Su Yuan's hand flashed, and two cards, one blue and one green, appeared in his hand. They were the [Air Cut] obtained from the Requiem Xuan Burial Monument, and the [Baptism of Holy Light] given by Wang Haiping.

With a thought in Su Yuan's mind, the [Baptism of Holy Light] was filled with brilliance, disappeared from his hand first, and was embedded around the Soul Card Blue Sky Phoenix.

Looking at the remaining [Air Cut] in his hand, Su Yuan's eyes froze and he used it without hesitation.

 Only this time, it’s as a soul skill!

  Star card masters of different levels have upper limits on the quality of the star cards they can inlay due to their own endurance.

 Star disciples can only inlay green star cards at most, and starting from the bronze level, every time they increase two star power realms, the quality of the star cards that can be inlaid increases by one level.

  In other words, the realm of star power is +2, and the quality of star cards is +1, that is:

 Bronze, silver, and up to blue star cards can be inlaid.

 Gold, shining stars, and up to purple star cards can be embedded.

　　Glory Moon, Burning Sun, can be inlaid with golden star cards.

Only above the scorching sun can the red star card be inlaid.

Of course, this is the theoretical upper limit of quality. In fact, among advanced star card masters, it is usually difficult for a card to reach the upper limit of quality.

 White, green, and blue colors are okay, but purple epic star cards and above are extremely rare. Usually, among the several star card masters of the shining star level, not one of them may have a purple quality star card!

  Getting back to the subject, for Su Yuan, who has just been promoted to the bronze level, the highest level can only be inlaid with blue star cards.

The air cut is very suitable for the Blue Sky Phoenix in terms of quality, attributes, and type, and it is perfect as a soul skill!

At this time, as Su Yuan used star power to communicate, the blue light on [Air Cut] flashed, sank into the body, turned into a star, and crashed directly into [Phoenix of the Blue Sky].

 “锵!”

 The Phoenix in the Blue Sky suddenly came to life and let out a high-pitched neighing sound.

A large number of silver chains of space runes are continuously shot out from the card surface of [Phoenix of the Blue Sky], surrounding [Phoenix of the Blue Sky] in the center like a celestial sphere, spinning non-stop!

After a while, all the space chains retracted together, and [Phoenix of the Blue Sky] quickly settled down.

 Soul skill [Air Cut], inlay completed!

Su Yuan could feel that the card surface of [Phoenix in the Blue Sky] had changed significantly compared to before. It was more refined and more vivid than before.

 In addition, the speed of absorbing and refining star power is about 30% faster than before!

 Soul skills are not just used as skills. The quality and level of the soul skills will also promote the growth of the soul card, thereby accelerating the growth of the star card master himself.

Su Yuan’s panel now looks like:

[Stardust: 80] "The next step is to hunt for stardust and increase the proficiency level of air cutting and holy light baptism!"

Su Yuan originally planned to play Stardust in the Daman Mountains until school started, but he had only been playing for more than a week. When he had just come down from the mountain and was resting in a suburban hotel outside the Daman Mountains, he turned on his phone and unexpectedly received a message from Zhuang Xun.

Su Yuan looked at the time, it was two days ago.

"Zhuang Xun, what do you want from me?" Su Yuan called back.

“Brother, you’ve finally answered the message!” Zhuang Xun’s surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong?"

Zhuang Xun said with a smile: "I heard that you are now recruiting students from the Demon City? It's spread all over Qingye City, you're awesome!"

“…Is this what you’re talking to me about?”

“Of course not!” Zhuang Xun paused and asked excitedly, “Su Yuan, are you at the bronze level now?”

There is nothing to hide, Su Yuan replied truthfully: "We just broke through not long ago."

“Great! I knew you had taken so many Tiangan Guos last time, and it’s almost time to break through now!”

 “What’s the matter? What’s the matter?”

"Of course! Don't you know what happened in the Flame Mountain recently?"

Flame Mountain?

If Su Yuan remembered correctly, the Flame Mountain is a low-level danger zone in the south of Shuzhou, and further south is the territory of Qingzhou.

Although the Flame Mountain is a low-level danger zone like the Daman Mountains, the level of danger is far higher than that of the Daman Mountains.

Flame Mountain is not a mountain, but a rolling and rugged mountainous area with several active volcanoes scattered inside. The environment is harsh and the concentration of fire elements is very high.

In addition, the star beasts in the Flame Mountain are generally stronger than those in the Daman Mountains, and the highest there are even gold-level star beasts.

 Generally speaking, the risk factor is relatively high, but because there are many fire minerals, materials and elite star beasts, the Flame Mountain is also a place where many fire star card masters often go to take risks.

"What happened to the Flame Mountain? I have been in the Daman Mountains these days, so there may be some unclear information."

"In the Daman Mountains again? Let me go, as expected of you, you are either practicing or practicing!" Zhuang Xun complained, and then said excitedly, "The Flame Mountain erupted! The bronze-level secret realm lava cave appeared again. Last time It seems like the lava cave opened more than twenty years ago!"

 Lava cave?

Su Yuan thought for a while, and then quickly came up with it.

The Flaming Mountain is famous not only because of itself, but also because it is connected to a small secret realm—the lava cave!

Whenever the Flame Mountain erupts, the lava cave will reappear in the world with the eruption of lava from the center of the earth.

Su Yuan asked: "So, are you planning to go to the lava cave to have a look?"

"Yes, that's it. I also called Fang Kun, and he has already broken through the bronze level. The three of us join forces to break into this lava cave. We will definitely gain a lot!"

 According to records, there are fire materials, spiritual plants, rare star beasts, etc. inside! How about taking advantage of such a rare opportunity? "

When Su Yuan heard this, he thought for a moment and said, "Do it!"

There are various reasons for the formation of secret realms. Some are caused by drifting fragments of the world; some are created artificially by top experts; others are formed naturally under the influence of rules due to special geographical environment combined with high-density energy...

 But no matter how it is formed, the stability of all secret realms is far from comparable to that of the real world.

 So many secret realms have upper limits on the energy they can withstand.

 When individuals who exceed this upper limit try to enter the secret realm, they will be rejected by the secret realm out of self-protection.

Of course, if the individual's power far exceeds that of the secret realm, it is indeed possible to enter by force, but a little carelessness may cause the secret realm to collapse.

Generally speaking, the larger the secret realm, the higher the energy level and the more stable it is. Some large secret realms can even accommodate the Scorching Sun level, but some secret realms can only accommodate the Bronze level at most.

 The lava cave of the Flame Mountain is such a bronze-level secret realm.

This means that there will be no Silver-level individuals in the lava cave, and its level of danger may not be as high as in the central area of ​​the Flame Mountain.

With his high-level skills, Su Yuan is confident that he is not afraid of anyone below the bronze level. Even if he is defeated, saving his life will not be a problem.

 This kind of secret realm that opens every twenty or thirty years usually produces many high-quality materials and star beasts.

Now that I have just been promoted to the Bronze level, it is when my strength is improving by leaps and bounds. Only one Holy Light Baptism is embedded in the five new skill slots, but there are still four empty!

I won’t say that it will be used up immediately, but it’s not too much to find a satisfactory star card in such a secret realm, right?

"Okay!" Seeing Su Yuan agree, Zhuang Xun laughed, his tone extremely excited, "I knew you would definitely go! Fang Kun and I had already arrived in Yunyang City yesterday. If we hadn't waited for you, We already set off yesterday, luckily you lived up to our expectations!"

Yunyang City is a secondary city in the southernmost part of Shuzhou and the city closest to the Flame Mountain.

Su Yuan looked at the time. It was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and said, "In that case, I will catch the nearest flight to meet you, rest for the night, and set off early tomorrow morning."

“Okay! Then we’ll wait for you here. You can see if there’s anything you need. We’ll buy it for you first.

In addition, many people have entered the Flame Mountain in the past two days, not to mention students from Shuzhou and Qingzhou. I even heard that geniuses from the Antarctic College came here specially. We have to hurry up! "

“Just help me prepare water and compressed food for another week. Don’t worry, a secret place can’t be explored in just two days, and if you don’t have enough strength, you won’t be able to explore it all no matter how much time you give.”

“Okay, let’s talk about it when you arrive, we will wait for you at the airport.”

"no problem."

Su Yuan hung up the phone, immediately booked a flight to Yunyang City, then left the hotel and rushed to the airport.

 …

 In the evening, Yunyang Airport.

“Su Yuan, this way!” Zhuang Xun greeted from a distance in the airport hall, and Fang Kun stood beside him with his arms folded.

Su Yuan raised his hand in response and walked over quickly.

 “You’re here!” Zhuang Xun laughed.

Su Yuan smiled and said, "I kept you waiting for a long time."

Fang Kun on the other side said: "It's okay, we just arrived."

Fang Kun looked at Su Yuan in front of him. Apart from the faint feeling of the bronze-level star power fluctuations on his body, Su Yuan still looked so ordinary on the surface. He was just an ordinary high school student who was harmless to humans and animals.

This guy...hides it really deep.

Fang Kun secretly cursed.

Zhuang Xun said to Su Yuan: "At first I said that I wanted to find a master and that I had to wait a while. He was not happy and said, 'Why wait!' But as soon as I said it was you, he immediately stopped talking, hahaha... "

“Zhuang Xun, are you talking too much about things that don’t matter?” Fang Kun snorted coldly, “I was defeated by you in the close sparring last time, and now that I have time, why don’t I do some hand gestures on the spot?”

Zhuang Xun’s laughter suddenly stopped.

 Just kidding, he doesn’t want to fight this reckless man.

Su Yuan looked at these two people and couldn't help but smile.

The relationship between these two people is really good...unlike the two special admissions students from the demon city.

One is unruly and arrogant; the other is as cold as ice, and it is unknown what kind of star beast it is.

Zhuang Xundao: "Let's go then. The hotel has been booked. Let's go have a skewer and discuss it carefully."

"good!"
