Chapter 111: I’ll give you a white flag; you can wave it later!
Spirit Vulture Douluo was indeed a bit curious at this moment. She truly couldn’t imagine what method Bai Yu could use to enhance her strength and life-saving ability.
If there was one, as far as she knew, it could only be Bai Yu’s self-created Spirit Abilities and Spirit Bones. But she already had those self-created Spirit Abilities.
It should be said that not only did she have them, but because any member of Spirit Hall was qualified to exchange for one or two, Elders could even view them at will.
However, only a few could successfully cultivate them, and even fewer could cultivate them to perfection.
Take herself, for example; she couldn't say she was completely ignorant, but she was only a half-baked practitioner, knowing a bit of everything but not much! Her talent in this area was practically negligible!
As for Spirit Bones, she knew Bai Yu had many, because over the years, Bai Yu would occasionally send some back.
Although these Elders were very curious where this Saint Child Hall Master got so many Spirit Bones, no one ever dared to inquire.
You get Spirit Bones to exchange for; you should just be secretly happy. You still dare to inquire about the source? What status do you have? Are you tired of living?
So she never harbored such extravagant hopes. Spirit Hall was a power, not a child's game; it had its own rules.
As the future Supreme Pontiff, the master of Spirit Hall, the Saint Child must be relatively fair in his actions, not just absolutely fair, to win over people's hearts.
If Bai Yu were to say he wanted to give her Spirit Bones later, not only could Spirit Vulture not accept them, but she would also have to persuade him not to. This was also why she wanted to ask clearly!
Bai Yu saw the inquiry in Spirit Vulture’s eyes and immediately understood what she was thinking. He chuckled lightly, waved his hand, and said,
“It’s not what you think. It’s spirit tools. At that time, I will give you some spirit tools for self-defense under the guise of experimentation.”
“Those high-level spirit tools are no less effective than Spirit Bones, and by giving them to you for experimentation, it won’t make others envious.”
A look of realization flashed in Spirit Vulture Douluo’s eyes. She had also studied spirit tools before; they were indeed very powerful. Unfortunately, her own talent as a Soul Guide was not very good either.
“Oh, so it’s spirit tools. Haha, then this Elder is relieved. I heard that Light Plume Douluo’s spirit tool arrows can penetrate a small mountain with one shot!”
“It’s a pity my talent isn’t good enough; I gave up after studying it a bit. I was originally thinking of finding someone to exchange for some later.”
“But since Xiao Yu Didi, you said you can make spirit tools for me, then I’ll be waiting!”
Bai Yu nodded and said with a smile,
“No problem, within two years, I will send you a set of spirit tools, Spirit Vulture Jie, rest assured.”
Then the two of them set aside this topic and began chatting and laughing with Hu Liena and the other two.
After returning to Spirit City, Spirit Vulture Douluo also parted ways with Bai Yu and the others. Only the four of them remained. They went to a hotel, packed some food and drinks, and arrived at Xie Yue’s courtyard.
“I say, Bai Yu, you’ve promised to make spirit tools for Elder Spirit Vulture, but what about us three? Never mind Xie Yue and me, Nana should get some, right?”
Yan put his arm around Bai Yu’s shoulder, winking at him, a playful look on his face.
Bai Yu’s eyelid twitched slightly. He turned to look at Yan, this scoundrel, and secretly wondered if this fellow was trying to sow discord? Playing stratagem with me?
He then turned to look at Hu Liena, finding the little fox staring intently at him, which made his scalp tingle a bit.
Although he really wanted to give Yan a good beating, now was not the time. Bai Yu could only lick his lips and try to argue.
“Why do you need spirit tools? You are currently in a period of rising spirit power. spirit tools will only distract you. When you reach Title Douluo, I will give you a set of Ninth-Rank spirit tools.”
“Besides, when you go out for training, can’t you also apply to wear spirit tools? It’s not some rare item.”
Yan pouted, scoffing at those spirit tools that had to be applied for.
“Don’t even mention it. Those standardized spirit tools are simply not easy to use. Compared to spirit tools tailor-made by a Soul Guide, they are not on the same level at all!”
Bai Yu rolled his eyes. This scoundrel sure had many demands, but what he said wasn't wrong.
Compared to tailor-made spirit tools, standardized spirit tools indeed seemed clumsier. They could only be activated by spirit power and could not cooperate with one's Spirit.
For Spirit Masters today, fighting with their Spirit was fundamental, and spirit tools were only for assistance. Therefore, the simple, standardized spirit tools were very unpopular.
“Alright, stop complaining. Tailor-making them for you now would be a complete waste.”
“When your spirit power increases, these things will be useless, and I’d have to remake them. Where would I find the time for that?”
Yan chuckled. In fact, even without Bai Yu saying it, he himself hadn’t thought of getting them tailor-made now; that was simply impossible.
He brought up the matter only to tease Bai Yu. This fellow simply made him too jealous!
Not only was he strong and talented, but he could also make spirit tools. Most importantly, he even had such good luck with women!
Xie Yue had already set up the food and drinks. He looked up and saw the three of them still chatting. He immediately spoke in an annoyed tone,
“What are you doing? You don’t help with the work, and you still don’t come over after it’s done. What? Do you plan to make me feed you?”
Hearing Xie Yue’s words, Bai Yu and Yan both gave an embarrassed smile. They had been so busy chatting earlier that they forgot Xie Yue was still busy setting things up.
“That’s not necessary, we’ll help ourselves. Let’s go, let me see if your alcohol tolerance has improved over the years, Yan!”
As soon as Bai Yu finished speaking, Yan immediately raised an eyebrow and started shouting provocatively.
“What a joke? Today, no one is allowed to use spirit power to sober up. Let’s drink freely and see who collapses under the table first!”
“To borrow your words, Bai Yu, ‘thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river.’ You made a fool of me back then; today, I must prove myself!”
Seeing Yan almost jumping onto the table, Xie Yue and Bai Yu exchanged glances and burst out laughing simultaneously.
“Haha, alright, then let us witness it. I hope your capacity is as tough as your mouth.”
“Yan, as the saying goes, ‘a wise man knows when to yield.’ Later, I’ll prepare a white flag for you. If you can’t drink anymore, just wave the flag, and we’ll let you off the hook!”
Watching Bai Yu and the other tease him, Yan’s face flushed red, and he said fiercely,
“Alright, waving the flag, is it? Get the flag ready. We’ll see which one of us three will be waving the flag later!”
Hu Liena watched from the side, shaking her head. They were all so grown up, yet these three guys were still so childish?
What was there to argue about? It was just drinking, not a war, where they had to fight for a victory. What would they gain from winning a drinking contest?
One could only say that Bai Yu and the other two didn’t know Hu Liena’s thoughts, otherwise they would definitely refute her. Was this about winning or losing?
To put it simply, it was a matter of face. To put it grandly, one drinking session could determine who was the father and who was the son!
Then the three of them began to compete at the table, while Hu Liena sat beside Bai Yu, occasionally glancing at him, thinking to herself, he looks so handsome even when drinking!
