Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents

Chapter 836 548: Star Skill Advancement, Heavenly Talent Battle Selection Begins (Part 2)

For an individual, one million Starstones is quite a lot.

But if placed in a legion of over seven hundred thousand, one million Starstones isn't much.

Hu Zeng knew Lu Lin didn't lack this amount, so he directly accepted it without refusing.

Afterward, he supplemented it to ten million Starstones before handing it out to the brothers under his command.

He used Lu Lin's reputation.

With this, Lu Lin's prestige within the Fierce Tiger Legion soared even higher.

If now Hu Zeng said he wanted to step down, besides Lu Lin, none of the brothers in the Fierce Tiger Legion would acknowledge anyone else.

Aside from guiding once in Star Skills, Lu Lin spent all his other time cultivating his Star Skills.

With the help of almost endless Earth Element Crystals, in such a short time, Lu Lin elevated his War Cry to the Seven Stars level, and as for Earth Control, it reached an astonishing Eight Stars level.

However, after reaching such a level, these two Star Skills temporarily hit a bottleneck.

To avoid wasting Starstones excessively, Lu Lin thought for a moment and decided to upgrade his other Star Skills one by one.

Now, Lu Lin's Earth-based Star Skills, the lowest level ones are Three Stars, with the highest even reaching Six Stars.

As for Eye-based Star Skills, although Lu Lin wanted to upgrade them, every time he invested Attribute Crystals, the Star Skills showed no growth at all.

He tried each Star Skill, but none even broke through to the One Star level, so Lu Lin could only give up helplessly.

From the beginning, Eye-based Star Skills had a peculiar personality, and even the Star Core of the Eye System, until now Lu Lin couldn't control it.

Perhaps it's because his strength is still too weak.

Lu Lin estimated that maybe only when he reached the Star Emperor Level, could he possibly wield a trace of the Eye System Star Core's power.

"Dong — Dong — Dong — "

The deep and melodious sound of a bell rang out, and Lu Lin emerged from his meditative state.

To participate in the Heavenly Talent War in the best condition, Lu Lin had entered an adjustment state three days ago.

Now the sound of the bell signifies the opening of the Heavenly Talent War.

Lu Lin tidied his belongings, including his broken knife, Nine Tribulations Captive Bull, Eight Mountains Suppressing Bull, and various treasures on his person, then swiftly headed up the mountain.

Upon arrival, Lu Lin saw a densely packed crowd of people.

Ninety-nine percent were Heavenly Talents whose strength stagnated at the peak of Star Lord.

There were also some big shots from General Mountain leading these Heavenly Talents to participate in the battle.

The minimum strength of these big shots was at the Star Emperor Realm, and the most powerful amongst them were on par with the Golden Divine Generals just below the Seven Great Elders.

Upon seeing Lu Lin appear, many people immediately shifted their gazes to him.

For someone to arrive so late, they are either a truly confident and capable Heavenly Talent or merely a charlatan.

After seeing Lu Lin's unremarkable appearance, the majority moved their gazes away.

But among the crowd, there were those who had investigated beforehand and recognized Lu Lin's face.

"That's Lu Lin."

"The South Twelve Sects have listed him as the first in this year's Heavenly Talent Rankings, Lu Lin."

"The Northern Seven Countries have also ranked Lu Lin as the first this year."

"The four major super sects, including the Exploration Sect and the Yellow Spring Sect, also placed Lu Lin at the top."

"But he looks just like that. I thought this guy would have three heads and eight arms."

"And he doesn't have an ounce of flesh on him; I'm worried if I hit him with a hammer, he won't even manage to utter a word."

"He looks decent, but judging by how late he arrived, he seems like an airhead."

Among the Heavenly Talents, many recognized Lu Lin's appearance and naturally knew he was the falsely reputed first in the Heavenly Talent Rankings.

Some expressed regret for Lu Lin, some sneered at him, some ignored him, and some were eager to try.

Regardless of Lu Lin's true strength, holding the top title in the Heavenly Talent Rankings undeniably made him the focus of attention.

In the crowd, Lu Lin also sensed three gazes.

One came from a Blade Master in black clothes with a black face towel over his face.

This person carried a Nine-Ringed Ghost Head Broadsword on his back.

The blade was sharp.

Aura of murder spontaneously emanated.

Lu Lin nodded; this guy is a strong opponent.

Another gaze came from a woman in a light yellow silk dress.

This woman wore a hat with a veil, and even with Lu Lin's eyesight, he couldn't make out her features through it.

It seemed this woman had some skills, likely with considerable Soul Power Cultivation.

She also held a light yellow paper umbrella, spinning it continuously.

When she noticed Lu Lin's gaze, she gave him a sweet smile.

In that moment, many Heavenly Talents felt as if spring had arrived for them.

The third came from a young man in a green warrior outfit, holding a long spear.

His entire being was like a spear piercing the sky.

Noticing Lu Lin's gaze, the young man did not turn to meet Lu Lin's eyes.

But the spear tassel in his hand swayed slightly.

Wait.

Upon closer inspection, Lu Lin realized it wasn't that the young man avoided eye contact, but rather that he had an eye problem.

Blind.

He turned out to be blind.

Thus, he had mistakenly sensed it earlier.

Out of the three gazes, two had already found their target, and the powerful blind spearman couldn't see him.

This indicated that there was another peer-level Heavenly Talent who had looked at Lu Lin, yet he hadn't sensed him at all.

Just as Lu Lin was about to release his Spiritual Strength to investigate, Elder Li Song with white eyebrows and hair suddenly rose into the air, saying.

"Silence!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the thousands present immediately fell silent, to the point where one could hear a pin drop.
