The faint fragrance had already faded away, but Chen Er's heart was in turmoil.

At this moment, Zhang Liao walked in, but Chen Er did not even notice Zhang Liao's footsteps.

Seeing Chen Er like this, Zhang Liao asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"

"Hmm? Oh, nothing, I was just thinking about something."

"What's the matter?" Zhang Liao asked curiously.

Chen Er's throat moved, and the words were on the tip of his tongue, but in the end, he didn't say them.

"It's nothing, just some small things."

It wasn't that he didn't trust Zhang Liao enough, but rather that there were some things that Zhang Liao couldn't yet understand.

Unconsciously, Chen Er recalled that the girl in white robes had also intentionally concealed some truths from Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao responded with an "oh," not dwelling on the matter. Suddenly remembering something, he said to Chen Er:

"By the way, while you were talking to the Apostle, Miss Lü Lingqi arrived."

"Where is she?" Chen Er asked.

"I'm leaving," Zhang Liao replied crisply.

"gone?"

“You were discussing something with the Apostle earlier, and I stopped her. She stormed off in a huff. I guess I angered her,” Zhang Liao said helplessly. He was genuinely afraid of Lü Lingqi.

Chen Er didn't know what to say either, and in the end, he shook his head:

"Never mind her. I do have a few questions I'd like to ask you."

"What is it, brother? Just tell me directly," Zhang Liao said, his expression hardening.

"What is your martial skill?" Chen Er looked at Zhang Liao with burning eyes and asked the question that had suddenly come to mind.

"My martial arts skills? One is [Divine Sword], and the other is [Chaotic Clouds]."

"[Divine Sword], [Chaotic Clouds]?"

"Yes, I'm not entirely sure what its specific function is. However, after the Apostle learned that I had awakened the [Divine Sword] and [Chaotic Clouds], he said something to me."

"What?"

"In Xiapi, there are only two or three people who can be considered your match."

"Then I truly congratulate you." Chen Er looked at Zhang Liao, a thought flashing through his mind, and sighed.

"Unfortunately, I still don't know what my martial arts skill is."

"Huh? How could that be!? Brother, how could you not know what your awakened martial skill is!" Zhang Liao looked at Chen Er with a surprised expression.

"I fainted in the Heavenly Pavilion, and it was the Apostle who saved me. Apart from that, I've forgotten everything else." Chen Er rubbed his temples, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

He was a specially trained person, capable of maintaining his sanity even under extreme circumstances that ordinary people could not withstand, but he still fainted.

Fainting is actually a form of self-protection for the body. When the body's subconscious determines that the external stimulus is too great and exceeds the body's tolerance, the body will automatically faint and enter a self-protective state.

Chen Er's endurance was astonishing. It's hard to imagine what incredible stimulus he must have received at that time.

In a daze, he seemed to remember witnessing a protracted war of gods in ancient times, and he even seemed to see some scenes, but at this moment, the memories left in his mind were all blurry.

Of course, Chen Er did not deny what the white-robed girl had said before. After all, he had indeed fainted, and it was indeed the white-robed girl who saved him.

The difference lies in whether Chen Er told her what his martial arts skills were.

"Incredible! He's awakened a martial arts skill, but he doesn't know what it is..." Zhang Liao's eyes suddenly lit up as he spoke, and he said to Chen Er:

"Brother, you're trying to channel all your power to where your [General Star] is located!"

"【General Star】?" Chen Er was stunned. He had heard the term a few times, but he really didn't know what it meant.

"Oh, right, I forgot you were unconscious, brother. [General Star] is the source of the military power within your body, and also the place where your [Martial Soul] lies dormant."

Suddenly, Chen Er recalled the scene of Lü Lingqi taking off her battle robe in front of him.

According to Zhang Liao's explanation, the location of Lü Lingqi's "General Star" is on her chest.

Although Chen Er had no romantic feelings for Lü Lingqi, he still felt something was off. At the same time, he understood why Lü Lingqi had suddenly changed her expression.

"Then, what is a [Martial Soul]?"

Chen Er rubbed his forehead; the amount of information he had received in such a short time was simply overwhelming. First, the apostle, the white-robed girl, lectured him, then her invitation on behalf of the Fate Ones surprised him greatly. And now, Zhang Liao had bombarded him with the concepts of "General Star" and "Martial Soul," leaving him somewhat overwhelmed.

However, for some reason, Chen Er felt a slight heat on his forehead while Zhang Liao was speaking.

It's as if something is sleeping deep in the mind, forgotten by memory.

"The [Martial Soul] is a unique symbol of high-level generals. Some people's [Martial Soul] is a weapon, and weapons also vary in strength, with the strongest being ancient divine weapons. Some people's [Martial Soul] is a beast soul, and of course, there are also some people whose [Martial Soul] is some special item."

As Zhang Liao spoke, his brows were radiant with pride. Seeing this, Chen Er had already guessed that he must have awakened an extraordinary [Martial Soul].

"So, what is your [Martial Soul]?"

Chen Er couldn't help but wonder what kind of [Martial Soul] could make Zhang Liao so happy. Was it that famous ancient divine weapon?

"Beast Spirit - Shirahoshi!"

When Bai Xing's name was mentioned, Zhang Liao's face was filled with uncontainable joy, as if every muscle in his face was dancing.

"In my perception, the source of your power, the [General Star], is the place where the [Martial Soul] resides. To summon the [Martial Soul], simply activate the [General Star]."

"Does the [General Star] still need to be activated?" Chen Er asked.

"For us, since we have only just awakened [General Star] and [Martial Soul], our bodies are still in the process of changing and integrating. After a while, once [General Star] and [Martial Soul] have fully integrated with our bodies, there will be no need to activate them. [General Star] can provide us with a continuous supply of [Martial Skill Power] at any time."

"Then, what is [General Skill]?" Chen Er sighed; new terms were constantly emerging.

[General Skill Power] is, strictly speaking, a unique kind of human energy. However, most people have too little [General Skill Power] in their bodies to support the activation of [General Skills]. Moreover, the higher the level and the more powerful the [General Skill], the greater the amount of [General Skill Power] required.
