“Third Rank?” Fang Li was truly stunned.
Bo Xie is actually a Third Rank Equipment?
How could this be?
Based on Fang Li’s knowledge of the original work, except for a few exceptionally special Ogre Lux Weapons, the rest should only go up to the Fourth Rank. And yet, Bo Xie was a Third Rank Equipment?
Such an Equipment had never even been mentioned in the original story. However, if Bo Xie was indeed a Third Rank Equipment, it would explain why the compatibility rating had been so low initially. Only after Fang Li had used the power of Stigma did it finally acknowledge him.
Moreover, Fan Xinglou’s overly joyful reaction hinted to Fang Li that there was more to Bo Xie’s origin than met the eye.
In response, Fang Li silently canceled Bo Xie’s materialization. The brilliant radiance that had surrounded the pure white blade slowly dissipated, and the pure white Urm Manadyte became dormant, obediently resting in Fang Li’s hand as if it had fallen asleep.
It was only then that Fan Xinglou and Claudia approached Fang Li.
“Well done,” Fan Xinglou said with a smile on her face, “It looks like I didn’t bring you here for nothing.”
Clearly, Fan Xinglou was in extremely high spirits. Her gaze, filled with curiosity, seemed as if she intended to dissect Fang Li from head to toe, as though she wished to uncover all of Fang Li’s secrets, which was rather unsettling.
Not only Fan Xinglou, but even Claudia seemed somewhat impressed as she added, “Fang-San is indeed a very special individual. Not only did he provoke such a reaction from Pan-Dora, but he also tamed Bo Xie. This must be Bo Xie’s first time having a user, correct?”
“First time?” Fang Li was suddenly surprised.
“Ah, could it be that Fang-San didn’t know about Bo Xie’s origin?” Claudia tilted her head and smiled charmingly as she spoke. “The owner of this Ogre Lux is said to be not the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, which serves as the Jie Long Seventh Institute operating parent, but the first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra.'”
When this information reached Fang Li’s ears, he was taken aback and looked at Fan Xinglou with surprise.
Facing Fang Li’s astonished expression, Fan Xinglou simply closed her eyes. Her youthful and charming face still bore a hint of a smile, making her appear enigmatic.
It was also precisely because of this reaction that Fang Li was sure that Claudia’s words were true.
Bo Xie’s owner was not the Integrated Enterprise Foundation but the first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra.’ In other words, Bo Xie belonged to Fan Xinglou.
Although it was just a conjecture, this Master Immortal had undoubtedly come to this Asterisk City under different identities. She had owned the title ‘Banyuu Tenra’ on three different occasions.
The first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra’ was Fan Xinglou.
The second generation ‘Banyuu Tenra’ was also Fan Xinglou.
And now, the third generation ‘Banyuu Tenra’ was Fan Xinglou as well.
“From the information I’ve gathered, it seems that Bo Xie was created as an Ogre Lux by the first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra’ using a technique that can be considered a Work of the Gods, with an extremely high-purity Urm Manadyte as its core,” Claudia continued, seemingly unaware of Fang Li and Fan Xinglou’s reactions.
“After creating this Ogre Lux, the first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra’ left Jie Long Seventh Institute, and the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, which served as the Jie Long Seventh Institute operating parent, conducted careful research on this Ogre Lux. However, due to the inability to find a user with a high compatibility rating, the data collection process became quite challenging.”
“Furthermore, the school culture within Jie Long Seventh Institute caused students to pay little attention to Ogre Lux, making data collection even more difficult. So, in desperation, Jie Long Seventh Institute provided Bo Xie to other academies in hopes of gathering information on it. However, despite passing through Rewolf Black Academy, Arlequint Institute, and Saint Galahadworth Academy for a decade each, and now Seidoukan Academy for a decade, they have all failed to find a user for Bo Xie.”
“First, Rewolf Black Academy had it for ten years, followed by Arlequint Institute, then Saint Galahadworth Academy, and now us at Seidoukan Academy. All the academies, except Queenvail Women’s Academy, have had Bo Xie for ten years each, rotating for research. But progress has been extremely slow, and the research has hit a dead end.”
“Then, the second generation ‘Banyuu Tenra’ appeared in Jie Long Seventh Institute. She had taken the compatibility rating test with her disciples several times, but it ended in failure each time,” Claudia recounted. “So, this should be the first time that Bo Xie has a true user.”
Hearing this, Fang Li fell into silence.
He hadn’t expected Bo Xie to have such a significant background.
This explained why the Ogre Lux had never been mentioned in the original story and why Fan Xinglou had been so ecstatic after Fang Li passed the compatibility rating test.
Without a doubt, this Ogre Lux was crafted by Fan Xinglou during her time as the first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra.’ Its purpose was to empower her disciples, improve their strength, and ultimately satisfy Fan Xinglou’s desire for combat.
With all this in mind, Fang Li couldn’t help but recall what Fan Xinglou had said on the day he became his disciple.
“To become my disciple, there’s one thing you need to remember.”
“Someday, you must fulfill my desires and let me experience the joy of battle.”
For this reason, Fan Xinglou had not only taught Martial Arts generously but also created Bo Xie during her time as the first generation ‘Banyuu Tenra.’
In short, Bo Xie was Fan Xinglou’s masterpiece during her prime.
After all, as Zhao Hufeng had mentioned, every generation of ‘Banyuu Tenra’ was skilled in pyrotechnics and capable of crafting Immortal Tools. With high-purity Urm Manadyte as the material, they should be able to create Ogre Lux.
Highly pure Urm Manadyte.
Fan Xinglou’s peak-level craftsmanship during her prime.
The combination of these two factors gave birth to Bo Xie.
A Third-Ranked Ogre Lux Weapon.
While Fang Li was lost in his thoughts, Claudia suddenly spoke up.
“May I make a request? I wonder if you would be willing to grant it?”
Hearing this, Fang Li was slightly surprised but soon understood what Claudia was getting at. Fan Xinglou also seemed to have guessed Claudia’s intentions, as she opened his eyes, a hint of delight appearing on her face.
In this context, Claudia smiled and made her request.
“Could you please engage in a duel with the opponents that Seidoukan Academy has prepared?”
