Diary System-Chapter 2: Inherited Soul Ring, Armed!
Dai Yutian frowned as he saw that his son's martial soul was not a family-inherited martial soul. He could clearly see the white tiger appearance of the gem-type martial soul. A mutant martial soul?
"Yichen, unfortunately, you didn't awaken the White Tiger Martial Spirit. You lost the bet between us. From now on, you should keep your distance from the three girls of the Zhu family."
Faced with Dai Yutian's cold words, Dai Yichen just smiled slightly. "Father, I haven't tested my soul power yet. Moreover, even if I didn't awaken the White Tiger Martial Soul, it doesn't mean that I can't fuse my martial soul with the woman who possesses the Hell Spirit Cat."
Dai Mubai, who was standing aside, saw that Dai Yichen was still unwilling to give up and snorted coldly. "Fourth Brother, do you enjoy competing with me so much?"
Dai Yichen knew that Dai Mubai was just a paper tiger before he met Tang San and the others, and since they were in the palace hall, he couldn't do anything to him. He mercilessly retorted, "Third Brother, isn't competition a princess passed down by our royal ancestors? Since it is a competition, it isn't just limited to the throne; it also includes the competition for your other half!"
Such things have happened in the Star Luo Empire from their ancestors to the present! After the successful prince came to power, he executed his brothers, but due to his "broad-mindedness," he provided a home for his brother's concubine—essentially saying, "I will raise your wife!"
All the people present were royal children and naturally understood the hidden meaning of Dai Yichen's words, causing Dai Weisi to become alert.
Since Zhu Zhuqing has not awakened her martial soul yet, and Zhu Zhuyun is also very close to her, there was naturally some contact with Dai Yichen in private. Dai Mubai's face grew livid, and his fists clenched as he could only look at his father unwillingly.
Dai Yutian observed the scene and did not stop it; instead, he smiled with interest. "Okay, then continue."
Since he took office as the Emperor of Star Luo, he hadn't encountered such an interesting situation in a long time. He felt that his fourth son was the one most like him. His courage, spirit, and heart made him very satisfied.
It's a pity that Dai Yichen was born too late. Unless he possesses full innate soul power, he might still have the strength to compete with his elder brother. Otherwise, without the martial soul fusion technique, he is basically doomed to fail.
Yes, Dai Yutian did not believe that this martial soul could be combined with the Hell Spirit Cat. After all, the types of martial souls are different. But just after Dai Yichen placed his hand on the crystal ball, it burst into an unprecedented light!
"Full innate soul power!" the old man exclaimed in disbelief, a glimmer of excitement in his eyes.
"What!" Dai Weisi and the other two were caught off guard, especially Dai Mubai.
Dai Yichen found this result to be expected. After all, it would be unreasonable not to have full innate soul power for the White Tiger Ability Lock. He then looked up at Dai Yutian and asked, "Father, what is your decision now?"
As those words fell, the three brothers looked at Dai Yutian nervously.
Dai Yichen felt that even if his father refused, it would be inconsequential. Originally, the White Tiger Ability Lock Martial Soul was powerful enough, and now with the help of the system, Dai Mubai wanted to complete the martial soul fusion technique with Zhu Zhuqing? That was simply impossible!
Dai Yutian did not rush to draw a conclusion, but said, "Yichen, don't be hasty. Introduce your martial soul to us first. This is the first time we have seen your martial soul; there is no such strange martial soul in the history of our royal family."
Dai Yichen thought to himself. As expected of an emperor, he really considers things carefully. He initially thought Dai Yutian would outright refuse, especially since his martial soul was not the White Tiger martial soul. Even if it had full innate soul power, it contradicted the rules passed down through their ancestors.
The emperor and empress of the Star Luo Empire can only be of the orthodox Dai family with the White Tiger martial soul and the Zhu family girl with the Hell Spirit Cat martial soul.
Now, his father wanted to see the ability of his spirit before making a decision.
Then, as if remembering something, a slight smile appeared on Dai Yichen's lips. This was simply a suitable reason for this inherited soul ring. It is reasonable to have a soul ring after awakening the martial soul, right?
A white tiger power lock appeared on Dai Yichen's right palm, which he wore firmly on his left hand. In front of everyone, a yellow soul ring rose, and Dai Yichen announced in a deep voice, "Arm!"
The next moment, Dai Yichen's entire body was covered in white armor shining with a metallic luster, and he wore a helmet shaped like a white tiger. A pair of blue goggles rested in front of his eyes, leaving only his mouth exposed.
"This is it!" Dai Yutian stood up in shock, his earlier indifference forgotten, his eyes fixated on Dai Yichen's armor and the soul ring he had just summoned!
He just awakened his martial soul, and he already possessed a soul ring. What was going on?!
The three princes were left speechless, looking at Dai Yichen with serious expressions in their eyes.
"Yichen, you need to give me an explanation." After regaining his composure, Dai Yutian sat down again, showing the majesty of an emperor.
Dai Yichen replied lightly, "Father, my martial soul is called the White Tiger Ability Lock. After using it, it can transform into a set of armor, and this soul ring appears to be the so-called inherited soul ring. It is the first soul ring that comes with awakening and is also the key to summoning this set of armor."
Dai Yutian nodded slightly, recognizing the peculiarity of the White Tiger Ability Lock. "How many hundreds of years is your first soul ring? What abilities does this set of armor grant you?"
Dai Yichen smiled. "It's eight hundred years, thanks to the whale glue that you collected for me. The ability this armor currently provides is a 50% increase in all attributes!"
The whale glue of this period was not used as a bodybuilding medicine but was consumed by some nobles as an aphrodisiac.
After awakening his memories, he found a suitable opportunity and mentioned that these whale glues seemed to enhance the physical fitness of soul masters. He hoped that Dai Yutian would send people to collect more hundred-year-old ones for him to consume. Of course, these would be subtracted from his usual allowances.
Dai Yutian, hearing this, showed surprise in his eyes. "Is this whale glue really effective? It seems our royal family needs to collect more in the future. This is already considered a strategic material. Yichen, you've made a great contribution this time!"
After pondering for a moment, Dai Yutian declared, "In that case, as the Emperor of Star Luo, I will make an exception for you! Although your martial soul is not the White Tiger martial soul, you are still qualified to compete for the throne, and the third daughter of the Zhu family will not be betrothed to your third brother."
Dai Mubai immediately grew anxious. "Father!"
Dai Yutian shot Dai Mubai a cold glance. "I said no engagement. If your martial souls are truly compatible, you can find a way to persuade the third daughter of the Zhu family to agree. You two brothers will compete fairly!"
"Finally, I want to remind you that the competition passed down by our royal family is to begin. If I discover any underhanded tactics in private, don't blame me for being harsh!"
