Ghost Douluo blushed and pretended not to hear Chrysanthemum Douluo's questioning from the side.
A true man knows when to yield and when to stand firm!
Only effeminate men would be arrogant and stubborn.
You still dare to unleash your first soul skill?
Look how much this kid disdains the damage your first soul skill caused.
Having learned from your experience, I certainly can't be foolish enough to unleash my first soul skill!
We are dignified elders of the Spirit Hall, titled Douluo, and all these Soul Masters around us are watching with open eyes!
This isn't called damage, it's called showing off!
Ghost Douluo wasn't confident that his first soul skill would cause more damage than Chrysanthemum Douluo's, so he simply unleashed his fifth soul skill.
This suicidal brat seems to only care about the final damage numbers, not which soul skill you unleashed.
Moreover, Ghost Douluo had almost figured it out: Lin Yi was truly sitting there with the intention of seeking death.
After all, what normal person would welcome being attacked?
They also encourage the use of attacks that deal the most damage!
Wow! This is the first time Ghost Douluo has ever encountered such a suicidal fanatic!
He finally met someone even more hellish than himself.
However, he was genuinely envious of the reward that had fallen from the sky!
Hopefully, at the very least, I can get a reward like that dead chrysanthemum, which increases the age of my soul ring. This is a talent that a soul master cannot change after birth, and it is extremely precious.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Ghostly Shadow Strike!"
Ghost Douluo's face was ashen, his thick hand stretched out forward, a black vortex condensing in his palm, giving it a sinister aura.
At that moment, everyone seemed to hear a sound like ghosts wailing and wolves howling coming from the vortex, and the surrounding air temperature dropped, a chill that emanated from the very bones.
Many people couldn't help but shiver on the spot.
Chrysanthemum Douluo was grinding his teeth to powder. This damned bastard, he said he'd use his first soul skill, but he used his fifth soul skill instead! Was he trying to play dirty tricks on me?!
Despite his dissatisfaction, he did not interrupt Ghost Douluo's attack.
After all, Chrysanthemum Douluo wanted to see if the young man could survive Old Ghost's fifth soul skill.
Secondly, I wanted to see what kind of rewards would drop from the higher damage level that the boy mentioned, which seemed to be the black level.
...
The stands have been erected for so long, and they're finally open for business...
Lin Yi slightly raised his head, a greedy smile subtly appearing on his lips.
It was like a hungry wolf eyeing a little lamb.
Ghost Douluo caught a glimpse of Lin Yi's gaze and couldn't help but shudder.
It's actually quite funny.
The onlookers trembled at his soul skills, but he trembled at Lin Yi's gaze.
Ghost Douluo had a feeling that this kid was drooling over his soul skills...
One by one, eerie ghostly figures burst forth from Ghost Douluo's palm, freezing the entire atmosphere upon their appearance.
A chill from the underworld descended upon everyone's heart.
The ghostly figures moved swiftly, their faces contorted in a ferocious grimace as they pounced on Lin Yi!
They tore and slashed at Lin Yi's body!
Originally a soul skill designed for group attacks, all the attacks were now focused on Lin Yi alone.
Ghost Douluo swallowed hard, looking at Lin Yi who was surrounded by black ghost shadows, and suddenly felt a little worried.
Don't let him really die... This is the first time he's unleashed this group attack on one person!
But gradually, Ghost Douluo's expression changed.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a reaction in the ghost:
The attacks of each ghostly figure gradually slowed down and became more sluggish, with one even wearily sticking out a long black tongue and hunching over.
Before long, the ghostly figures disintegrated one after another, letting out a series of unwilling howls.
And Lin Yi gradually came to the fore.
Ghost Douluo stepped forward curiously, squinting his eyes and staring intently.
Under normal circumstances, Lin Yi's body should have been torn to pieces or eaten down to the bone, but at this moment, he was sitting there completely unharmed...
Ghost Douluo rubbed his eyes.
No way... are you kidding me?
Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression also turned strange. He had thought that the fifth soul skill should cause some harm to the boy.
But... but his hairstyle wasn't messed up at all!
Lin Yi looked at the data on the panel.
[HP Loss: 99321]
[Remaining HP: 9,999,997,842,34]
Damage Level: Black (Beginner)
[Random Reward: Breakthrough Crystal]
[Host Reward: Breakthrough Spirit Stone]
This new damage also triggered many new things, and Lin Yi spent a little while checking the system comments.
Damage at the Black level and above seems to have been subdivided into three specific areas: beginner, intermediate, and advanced.
Black-level damage ranges from 50,000 to 200,000.
Subdivided into:
Between 50,000 and 100,000 is considered basic black damage.
100,000 to 150,000 is considered intermediate-level black damage.
150,000 to 200,000 is considered high-level black damage.
Similarly, the subsequent red, gold, and rainbow gold levels are also finely divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced.
"W-how is it? How much damage did you sustain? Why aren't you saying anything, senior?"
Ghost Douluo rubbed his hands together and asked in a low voice.
For some reason, the process of waiting for the outcome of the injury made Ghost Douluo somewhat nervous.
Lin Yi looked up, a faint smile on his face.
Upon seeing the smile, Ghost Douluo inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Lin Yi had always had a sour face towards everyone, looking down on their harm.
The fact that this kid smiled at him means the damage must have been considerable!
"The damage is 99321, which I have classified as black primary damage. It is only 600 damage away from reaching black intermediate damage."
Lin Yi explained with a slight smile, while saying something that greatly excited Ghost Douluo.
"This damage breaks the record set by Chrysanthemum Douluo, becoming a new historical high."
Ghost Douluo's eyes widened: "A... a new historical high?! And a new historical high achieved by stepping on this chrysanthemum face?!"
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo's face darkened.
His fists were clenched so tightly they cracked.
The surrounding Soul Masters were collectively shocked.
"My god, is this what a Title Douluo is like? Over 90,000 damage! I can't even imagine it!"
"His money is already close to 100,000!"
"This seems to be the first time I've heard of 'black-level' damage... Huh? What kind of reward could that be?"
Ghost Douluo, his mouth dry from listening to the others' discussion, immediately turned his gaze to Lin Yi.
"Senior! May I ask what my reward is?!"
Lin Yi extended his right hand, making a heart-shaped gesture, upon which a black ball of light appeared.
Everyone stared intently at the black orb of light.
The first appearance of a black orb of light!
A historic moment!
"The black beginner reward is a breakthrough crystal. This is different from the growth crystal. The growth crystal is only applicable to the increase of soul power at level 68 and below, while the breakthrough crystal is applicable to the increase of soul power at level 93 and below."
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he asked, "What level are you at right now?"
Ghost Douluo replied in a daze, "Exactly level 93..."
"Then congratulations, you're going to reach level 94."
