Floating Island - Triple S Talent - Chapter 33

Chapter 33: Promotion to Tier-2
Leaving the Tou Pavilion, Lein and Nita explored several other places around the city of Heavenly News.

They visited crowded places such as restaurants, hotels, entertainment venues, martial arts dojos, and schools. Naturally, all the buildings and their atmospheres were very different from the social norms of Earth.

For example, on Earth, they still used motorcycles with several wheels. However, in the world of Cultivators, they preferred to use animal-powered carriages. Additionally, most flying objects like airships and flying beasts were quite expensive. So, it was not surprising to see several pushcarts around.

“Brother… How about we proceed to Tier-2 next?”

Nita was already quite tired from walking around the city, so she felt it was time to proceed.

“Hmmm, yeah, let’s rent a place for now,” replied Lein.

They soon went to one of the inns in the city center.

They saw a 10-story inn and made a reservation for one week, spending 1,500 energy crystals.

Hotel Room, 7th Floor.

“Brother, can you duplicate the silver badge?”

Inside the hotel room, Nita asked with high curiosity.

“Yeah… wait a moment.”

Lein then opened his status panel, and the cooldown for his Infinity Duplicate Talent was over.

[Duplicate (silver badge) x 10,000. Are you sure?]

“Yes.”

As usual, there was no hindrance. With a short burst of white light, 10,000 silver badges soon filled the storage space within his ring.

Yes, Lein and Nita were no longer using system bags. The high-level bag they previously used could only hold 1,000 item slots, with each slot holding 100 stacks.

But when they visited the Tou Pavilion earlier, they bought a Space Ring with 100 cubic meters of storage for 10,000,000 energy crystals.

“Hahaha, it never disappoints,” Lein said, looking at all the Silver Badges in the storage space and taking a deep breath.

“Alright… 50% of our goal has been achieved,” Lein said casually.

Their goal this time was to find a silver badge to proceed. But this time, not only did they get the silver badge, they also obtained many high-quality items.

Lein felt that he needed to explore higher realms to quickly gain the strongest power.

With his duplication talent, he could copy any item owned by powerful people. He even thought of duplicating the items used to create systems if possible.

Lein didn’t wait any longer and opened the promotion panel.

[Proceed to Tier-2, consuming items:]

– Silver Badge

– 100,000 Energy Crystals

– Level 20 Monster Heart – Commander Rank

Are you sure?

“Yes.”

Lein agreed casually. He suddenly felt a power entering his body.

He could feel his blood flowing through every vein inside him. It wasn’t painful but felt very strange, like a worm entering his body and moving freely.

That strange feeling didn’t last long, soon replaced by a comfortable feeling. His body felt full of power.

[The ruler has successfully promoted to Tier-2]

[Sub-skills have been unlocked, please fill them wisely]

Lein was curious about his status increase, so he opened the status panel.

“Sub-skills?” Lein said, confused.

“Do Cultivator skill books also count as sub-skills?”

He had actually seen some skill books when he went to the Tou Pavilion, but there were no features other than general information.

“Yes, brother, maybe we should try buying some skill books and trying them out,” Nita also thought the same.

“Yeah… Besides, we’re not in a hurry. Come on, you should also proceed to Tier-2.”

“Okay, brother.”

Nita did the same, agreeing to the system prompt.

Soon, Nita held Lein’s hand, startled.

“Brother…” Nita said, looking at Lein worriedly.

“Calm down, don’t panic… Brother felt the same earlier.”

Nita seemed comforted and calmed down again. The promotion effect didn’t last long.

Nita looked at Lein and nodded. She then explained all her attribute status to Lein.

[STATUS]

– Name: Cute Cat

Lein and Nita both gained an additional 500 points in each attribute.

All their equipment had also been replaced with the best available items, each upgraded to +10.

Forging was very difficult, requiring someone with a forging talent for a high success rate and many resources.

Not only energy crystals, but rare colored stones were also needed.

All of that only applied to others. Lein didn’t even employ someone with a forging talent to upgrade his and Nita’s equipment to +10. He did it himself with a very low success rate, spending many times the usual resources.

“Brother, look, the event ranking has changed.”

Hearing Nita’s words, Lein opened the Event Ranking board.

[Event Ranking]

1. Raden Tutu – 3600

2. William Anderson – 1450

3. Rikamu – 1250

4. Bai Qi – 750

…

8. Laras – 430

“Sister Laras?” Lein asked, surprised.

But after thinking about it, it made sense. He felt Laras had a special talent for combat.

“It seems we’re falling behind again,” Lein said, making a sad pose.

Pakkk…

A punch landed directly on Lein’s stomach. The punch wasn’t strong, but it made Lein surprised and slightly embarrassed.

“What’s wrong, Nita?” Lein still looked confused, not knowing what was happening.

“Hmm… Arrogant… Don’t complain if you’re not on the ranking again,” Nita turned away.

“Hahaha… Alright, alright… Sorry, brother was just joking.”

“Let’s find suitable skill books for us.”

Nita still looked indifferent, but she walked towards the door.

Lein raised his hand as if asking, “What did I do wrong?” Without thinking any longer, he followed her out.
