At this moment, as the System's notification sounded in his mind, a hint of intense curiosity appeared in Liu Yuan's eyes.
"Has the reward arrived?" he whispered inwardly. "This time, what skill will it be?"
The System's response came without the slightest delay, and soon, the cold mechanical voice sounded once again:
[Congratulations to the Host, you have obtained a random Mega Rayquaza skill — Draco Meteor!]
[Draco Meteor]
[Attribute: Dragon]
[Power: 130]
[Type: Special Attack]
[Special Effect: After the attack hits, there is a 100% chance to lower the target's Special Defense by 2 Ranks.]
"Draco Meteor?"
Liu Yuan's eyes lit up suddenly.
"Not bad at all!"
This skill was truly well-suited for him.
Not only was its power immense, but more importantly, it possessed a bug-level special effect—a 100% chance to reduce the opponent's Special Defense by two Ranks!
What did this mean?
It meant that in the future, when facing any powerful enemy, he could completely initiate with a [Draco Meteor]. Regardless of whether it could inflict effective damage, as long as it hit, he could directly strip away a huge chunk of the opponent's Special Defense.
Following that, by chaining it with his other special attack skills, the damage caused would increase exponentially!
This was a perfect opening move, a strategic god-tier skill that could pave the way for all subsequent special attacks!
Liu Yuan nodded in satisfaction, then sank his consciousness into his body, carefully sensing the changes in his spirit power.
Within his Dantian Qi Sea, spirit power surged like a tide, significantly more vigorous than before.
Without a doubt, under the blessing of the god-bestowed spirit ring, his spirit power Rank had firmly stepped into the threshold of Rank 52.
"This was satisfying..."
Liu Yuan tallied his gains, his mood becoming increasingly pleasant.
The purpose of this trip had been fully achieved, and it could even be said that it far exceeded expectations.
"That's about it. It's time to head back to Sun Moon Royal Academy to report."
He identified the direction, stopped lingering, and his figure transformed into a faint cyan shadow, rushing rapidly towards the exit of the Star Dou Great Forest.
...
On the other side.
Star Dou Great Forest, core area, Lake of Life.
What Liu Yuan did not know was that the mere tens of seconds he spent summoning Mega Rayquaza to test his strength had caused such intense shock to the Vicious Beasts in the core area.
Not long after the aura of Mega Rayquaza vanished, two figures rushed hurriedly to the shore of the Lake of Life, arriving before the majestic man in black who was resting with his eyes closed.
The arrivals were none other than the fourth-ranked of the Ten Great Vicious Beasts, Xiong Jun—the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear, and the seventh-ranked, Jade Swan—the Emerald Swan.
"Di Tian!"
Before he had even steadied himself, the most impatient of them, Xiong Jun, roared in a muffled voice: "Did you feel that? That aura just now! What on earth was that thing?!"
The typically gentle and quiet Jade Swan also had a face full of solemnity and shock. She followed up, saying: "Di Tian, did you just see that mysterious Spirit Beast? His aura... so terrifying! Just for a fleeting moment, it made me feel my Soul trembling!"
The man in black, known as Di Tian, slowly opened his golden eyes that seemed to contain endless majesty.
