Chapter 92: Promise Me One Condition [Seeking First Subscription!]

"Exchange using equivalent knowledge?"

Huo Wu's expression was a bit blank: "I don't seem to have anything on me that I can exchange..."

"Then there's nothing to be done..."

Qin Jian spread his hands and said, "It is impossible for me to give you the sect's knowledge for free; what our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can accept is only an exchange."

In fact, he had held some things back. Because this Fusion is very difficult, it hasn't been given much importance. Plus, his teacher is Jian Douluo, so not to mention that it wasn't considered precious to begin with, even if it were truly precious, it wouldn't be a big problem for him to give it to others...

It's just that the relationship between Huo Wu and him hasn't reached that point yet. If it were Shui Bing'er who wanted to learn... *cough cough*...

Huo Wu lowered her head and furrowed her brows.

Qin Jian looked at her and felt a bit puzzled: "Your martial soul Fire Shadow is already a top-tier martial soul, and your future achievements will be immeasurable. Why are you so obsessed with this skill, Fusion?"

Huo Wu raised her head, a determined look appearing on her face: "Because I want to bring glory to the academy, so I must become stronger and stronger!"

"You actually have such a strong sense of belonging to Blazing Academy..."

Qin Jian said in surprise: "Generally speaking, an academy is just a stop in our growth process; very few people have your kind of obsession."

Huo Wu looked up at him and said earnestly: "My brother and I have been orphans since we could remember. If the academy hadn't taken us in, we wouldn't have our current achievements. Therefore, Blazing is my home, a place I must protect even if I have to risk my life."

"So that's how it is, no wonder you..."

Qin Jian did not say the rest of the sentence.

That was the act where, in the future Elite Tournament of the Dalu Advanced Academy Spirit Masters, Huo Wu would rather perish together with Tang San than lose, in order to maintain the reputation of Blazing Academy.

So it turns out there was such a reason for it...

However, this is Huo Wu's own business. He also has his own sect and his own sense of belonging, so naturally, he couldn't betray the sect's interests just because of these few words... unless it were his own woman...

"Qin Jian, I have created a technique myself. I wonder if I can exchange it with you?" Huo Wu suddenly said at this moment.

Her expression was a bit apprehensive: "I know that what I have comprehended, no matter what, cannot be compared to the research of your sect's predecessors, but I really don't have anything else I can exchange with you..."

Qin Jian became a little interested: "Tell me about it."

Huo Wu then said: "Because my martial soul is humanoid, just like my clone, in order to better coordinate with my martial soul, I developed a skill to swap positions with my martial soul. Can this be exchanged with you?"

Qin Jian pinched his chin and pondered: "This is actually quite practical, but as you said, it is indeed far inferior to Fusion. Three such techniques would barely be enough for an exchange."

Huo Wu immediately looked distressed: "Then I really don't have any more... Qin Jian... is there anything else you want? As long as I have it, I can give it to you..."

"That sounded... why so ambiguous..."

Qin Jian looked her up and down, speechless.

Huo Wu was stunned for a moment, then clenched her fists and growled: "Qin Jian! What are you thinking!"

"I'm not thinking anything, why so agitated..."

Qin Jian waved his hand and said: "Let me think, what else you could possibly exchange with me..."

The angry look on Huo Wu's face immediately vanished, and she became a bit apprehensive instead.

Qin Jian glanced at her and thought to himself: "Although the value is indeed not equal right now, in the future, given her potential, she could pay back much more. What's more, what if she is one of the remaining seven..."

"How about this, Huo Wu..."

His voice immediately received Huo Wu's full attention: "Qin Jian, tell me, I'm listening."

"Besides that technique just now, you promise me one more thing. How about that as an exchange?" Qin Jian said.

Huo Wu pressed: "What do you want me to do?"

Qin Jian smiled and said: "I haven't thought of it yet. This condition is reserved; I will bring it up in the future."

Huo Wu subconsciously wanted to agree, but then suddenly became vigilant: "Will you bring up particularly excessive conditions later?"

"What excessive conditions? Are you referring to..."

Qin Jian crossed his arms and scanned her up and down: "Hmm, then I could bring it up now... After all, the increase in soul power has a very astonishing effect on physical development. Your level 32 soul power has already made you no different from an adult..."

"Wh... what..."

Huo Wu was stunned at first, then flew into a rage, pointing her finger at him: "Qin Jian! You actually focus on this kind of thing! I was only worried that you would make me do bad things!"

Qin Jian shook his head repeatedly and said: "I didn't say anything, I was just complimenting your figure!"

"Go back and compliment your Shui Bing'er!" Huo Wu said angrily.

"You don't want to learn the Fusion technique anymore?" Qin Jian glanced at her sideways.

Huo Wu froze, then took a deep breath and said: "Qin Jian, I really want to learn Fusion, so as long as you don't make a request in the future that I absolutely cannot accept, I will agree to you."

Qin Jian nodded and said: "Fine, I won't force you to do things you don't want to do, nor will I make a request that exceeds the value of the Fusion technique."

"But you also cannot refuse things that are clearly within your ability to do," he added.

Huo Wu nodded and reached out her hand: "Deal."

Qin Jian also reached out and shook her hand: "Deal."

"Let me tell you what Fusion is first..."

The deal reached, Qin Jian sat down on the seat in the small pavilion and took out paper and pen from his Soul Guidance Device, placing them on the stone table: "Come, Huo Wu, let me explain it to you..."

"Uh, Qin Jian, aren't you afraid that I won't fulfill the agreement after I learn it?" Huo Wu sat down and asked curiously.

Qin Jian glanced at her and said: "Not afraid."

After all, he suddenly remembered that Huo Wu herself seemed to have comprehended the Fusion technique originally... so whether he taught her or not, the result would be the same...

Thinking about it this way, he was actually profiting, so what was there to be afraid of...

But he certainly couldn't say this, so Qin Jian said: "Although we have been opponents several times, and each time it wasn't exactly pleasant, I still feel that you are a trustworthy person who wouldn't do such a thing."

Hearing this, Huo Wu's expression became a bit strange; perhaps no other person of the opposite sex had ever said such things to her...

"The key to Fusion lies in the attributes of the Soul Ring itself. Generally speaking, the more similar the Soul Rings are, the lower the difficulty of fusion..."

Qin Jian picked up the pen and began to illustrate: "Look, if your three Soul Rings are all from the same type of Soul Beast, the difficulty of fusion is the lowest..."

This was the reason why he had learned Fusion very early on, because his Soul Rings appeared on their own; they were the most suitable Soul Rings for him, so naturally, the difficulty of fusion was minimal.

"What if the Soul Rings are not from the same type of Soul Beast?" Huo Wu asked.

Qin Jian began drawing again: "In that case, if the martial soul is of a single attribute and the soul skills are similar, the difficulty of Ring Fusion will also decrease, just like you..."

"The most difficult Ring Fusion is that performed between different Soul Beasts, different soul skills, or even between different Spirit Masters."

His words opened Huo Wu's eyes: "Can Ring Fusion also be performed between different Spirit Masters?"
