Chapter 45: Speed Clan Onboard
"Patriarch Bai, We Spirit Masters spend our whole life cultivating trying to increase our Spirit power and then absorb spirit ring. In the end, you will end up becoming titled douluo with 9 Spirit Skills and Ring if you are lucky and talented."
"and if in the middle you have some accident such as internal wounds or cultivation deviation then you will end up stuck in your current level or even regressing depending on the condition. after that most will waste his or her life trying to fix their problem depending on luck to find something or someone that could help them."
"Just like how your clan is now trying to solve the problem of your clan by changing your Martial Spirit, but in the end, it will only depend on luck whether you could even solve it or not." Lin Tian said while showing a smug face that full of sarcasm.
"Lin Tian! are you trying to say that my Clan's effort for trying to solve our problem is only a waste of time !?" Bai He, said angrily while pressuring Lin Tian.
Lin Tian receiving Bai He's Spirit Douluo pressure just sit while watching him calmly without any panic.
"I'm not saying that all of them is a waste, but have you ever thought about it like this? Your clan is unable to go beyond level 38 ONLY if they have a spirit ring with attacking Spirit skills attached, even though your predecessor has tested and proven it many times in the end you guys just keep repeating the same thing over and over again. Don't deny it I know a lot of your Clan members have done this, You ask me is it a waste of time and effort or not ?"
Hearing this Bai He flinched and stop releasing his pressure, after all, he can't refute the fact that even he has done this when he was young only to ended up regretting it in the end.
"Your clan problem is not being incapable of cultivating at all, the problem of your clan is unable to have any attacking spirit skills. why don't you guys ever think of using weapons, poison, or many other options that can directly solve this problem. Hell, you guys could even try to develop original Spirit Skills even though the chance is really low, with accumulation for the generation it is still possible for you guys to create some technique for your clan."
"This-...." Hearing this Bai He stunned unable to say anything in reply and just sit quietly.
Seeing Bai He reaction Lin Tian just shook his head.
The Douluo world development whether it is technology, technique, or any other thing is unbelievably weird in his opinion. ten thousand years was needed for Spirit Master to start making spirit guidance tools and this happens only because the sun-moon continent merged with Douluo Continent and spread its usage(DD2).
and then it took another ten thousand years before people start thinking about space traveling (DD3), in his opinion this rate of development is unbelievably abnormal as if something was controlling the world and not allowing them to develop their technology.
after all on earth, the technology we're able to develop from Metal weapons to guns and space traveling in only around two thousand years, while Douluo continent already uses a metal-based weapon for tens of thousand years but the people still live like in medieval age on earth now.
"Patriarch Bai please take a look at this." while saying this Lin Tian pull out some weapons from his storage, some of them are swords, spears, throwing knives, bows, and a few other kinds of weapons.
Lin Tian takes a sword and starts inputting some Spirit Power inside it.
Bai He paying attention to the sword notice that the sword has Spirit power flowing on it, the sword starts to glow a little and then Lin Tian make the sword's edge to touch the table made out of wood.
without any sound, the sword edge cut through the table like butter and this surprised Bai He a lot. after that Lin Tian also took out an iron ingot and then demonstrate the sword's sharpness by slicing it in half easily.
"Lin Tian this is ?"
"This is one of the things that able to fix your clan problem, Spirit Guidance Weapons. you can use it by simply inputting Spirit Power inside it." Lin Tian let Bai He try to use the sword.
while Bai He was awed while testing the weapon Lin start explaining, "This is a weapon specially made by my group it is a weapon made for Spirit Masters and I can say with confidence no one else in the whole continent able to create these Spirit Guidance weapon."
"And for your information one of the people that have joined under me is the Divine blacksmith Luo Gao, patriarch Bai should've heard of him from your Strength Clan friend." while saying this Lin Tian took out a Divine Blacksmith Badge, this was given to him by Luo Gao after he asked for something that could be used as proof he is working under Lin tian.
"You're actually able to make that old guy submit to you!?" looking at the Badge Bai He knows it is the real one.
Bai He of course knows about Luo Gao and the badge from his old friend Tai Tan who is also a Divine Blacksmith. which is why he is really surprised, after all, he understands how hard-headed and stubborn Luo Gao is. most of all the old guy is really cunning and never takes any loss on making a deal.
"Now Patriarch Bai I invite you and your clan, would you all join me? I promise that each of your clan members will get a suitable weapon made for them."
Bai He looks at the weapons on the table while thinking, he is weighing the Pros and Cons of joining Lin Tian. he knows Lin Tian is rich being the owner of Heavenly taste restaurant, Luo Gao joining him shows that he has some skills and influence as a leader. but Bai He still has his concerns, after being lead by the Clear sky clan for a long time makes him a bit picky about choosing who to follow.
"Patriarch Bai is concerned about my talent right?" Lin Tian said after watching Bai He not answering after some time.
He understands his concerns after all Douluo continent in the end still respects strength and talent the most. Even Tang San in the original story also needs to prove his capability to the 4 clans before they ended up joining the Tang sect. if he is not capable enough, even as the son of Tang Hao they will definitely reject him.
"There's only one way to show you then. Patriarch Bai, Let's have a spar."
---------------------------------
in the middle of the Speed clan training area both Lin Tian and Bai He is standing against each other.
on the side Zhuqing, Su Ning, Xu Ho, Xu Chi, Xu Min, some speed clan members, and Elder are watching the side. all of them just watch by and didn't understand what this spar would decide the fate of the speed clan.
"Lin Tian, ten years old support system. level 33 Spirit Elder." behind him 3 Spirit rings floating one yellow and two purple.
Seeing this Zhuqing and the Speed Clan's Elders gasped in surprise, while the 4 bodyguards only watch calmly.
Su Ning finally said, "doesn't matter how many time I saw it Young Master's Spirit ring is really abnormal." the three brothers nodded in agreement.
Bai He was also surprised with the spirit ring configuration, but he calms himself quickly.
"Bai He, Pure Speed system Level 82 Spirit Douluo." While saying this he showed 8 floating rings with perfect configuration, 2 yellow 2 purple 4 black.
Lin Tian without saying anything takes out his twin sword from the storage and uses flash steps, he directly moves in front of Bai He and attacks him.
seeing his speed Bai He was given another surprise, such speed was impossible for a normal Spirit Elder. Bai He easily dodges the sudden attack with his speed, Lin Tian didn't give up and keep tracking him with his spiritual sense and tried to attack Bai He.
Bai He finally starts counter-attacking with punches while holding back, even though the speed clan didn't have any attacking spirit skills Bai He already being a Spirit douluo his punch while holding back already comparable to a three-ringed Spirit Elder Spirit skills.
Lin Tian often sparing with Spirit Ancestors and Spirit King able to easily defend and parry Bai He's punch. Bai He seeing this starts increasing his attack strength by applying a Spirit power to his punch, both of them keep going at each other while moving at a high speed.
the spectator from Lin Tian's group was surprised with such a high-speed exchange while the Speed clan Elder can follow this level of speed easily but they were surprised by Lin Tian's speed.
"That young man's speed is actually comparable to our clan member, how is it possible?" one of the elders finally said.
"Did you notice the young man didn't even use any Spirit skills till now and able to clash with Patriarch even though he is holding back."
it was at this moment Lin Tian finally able to land a slash on Bai He's palm causing a little slit and making blood flow. suddenly both of them stop their fight.
"Impressive, being only a Spirit Elder but able to follow my natural speed and even land an attack on me." Bai He said while looking at the little damage on his palm.
"It is thanks to Patriarch Bai's mercy."
"No need to be so humble, for you being soo young and able to do this means your talent far beyond any genius."
"Patriarch Bai you mean-"
"I Have decided, from now on Speed clan will submit under the leadership of Lin Tian. Greetings to the leader!." Bai He said while bowing.
seeing this the other speed clan members although a bit confused finally react and bowed "Greeting to the Leader!"
Lin Tian seeing this finally react, "I have accepted your Clan submissions now I shall appoint Patriarch Bai He as one of my Elder, and with this, I will now create a new sect called the 'Peerless Sect'."
"Our Sect's first agenda is to make the other 3 clans of the Four single clans join us, I shall be needing Elder Bai's help in the future."
"Understood! Elder Greet the sect Master!"
"Greetings to Sect Master!"
