Chapter 1052: Soul Battle System

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The Mammoth, which was just like a mid-sized city, ferried hundreds of thousands of passengers. Even if only a thousandth of them could be considered warriors, that would still be at least several thousand, which was why the soul battle training hall was so lively. Most of the warriors spent their time

participating in simulated fights while aboard this ship.

Old Fuchen smiled. “The greatest benefit that comes from this simulation system is that one doesn’t need to use soul power, yet they’ll still gain precious soul battle experience. Your style of combat before focused on law power, but now that you’re in the Alpha Universe, you’ll be experiencing a whole new

battlefield, which is mainly centered on soul fights. As such, facing soul practitioners will be very beneficial to you, as they fight completely differently from law warriors.

“Since you’re still injured, you might as well forget about advancing in the meantime; even cultivating won’t do you any good. Before you make a full recovery, I suggest that you engage in simulation battles, as it’s the most productive thing you can do at the moment, helping you become familiar with the

rules and tricks of combat here in the Alpha Universe.”

Xia Fei nodded. His eyes trained on the screen. Because the power system used in soul battles was different, shadow and light swayed, which gave the shown fights even greater depths of excitement and brilliance. Watching such was way more thrilling than watching a movie. It was as if an entirely new

world had opened up to Xia Fei.

In Alpha Universe, there were actually many uses for law powers, and a lot of soul practitioners did use it here as well, but the point was that, on top of traditional combat using laws, many high-level warriors utilized soul power. Thus, regardless if it was law power or soul art, it was imperative for

warriors to master both.

Xia Fei was ultimately a beginner, having just activated his Soul Mark, so the soul battles he had witnessed were just those fought at the Cosmic Gate. As a warrior, experience and strength were equally important, and neither should be neglected. Now that there was this soul battle system, which seemed

to be tailor-made for him, it was in his best interest to study and learn everything it could offer.

“What a wonderful soul battle system! I truly look forward to giving it a shot.” Xia Fei clenched his fists as he said this. It had been a long time since he traded blows with another; Xia Fei could feel himself itching just that.

Fuchen smiled and then pointed to the thousands of spectators in the grand hall. “Look over there. Most of the passengers are holding number plates. They want to participate in the soul battles, yet The Mammoth only has one thousand six hundred simulation cabins, so there’s a need to queue. When it’s

your turn, you’re only allowed to use one of those simulation cabins for three hours. Even if you don’t get your fill, the staff will still usher you out.”

Xia Fei furrowed his brows as he carefully examined the crowd. Sure enough, many of them were holding number plates as they stood there in the hall, watching the others fight, awaiting their turn. Their faces glowed with excitement and anticipation; he could even see an elderly gentleman with a head

full of silver hair and a child no older than eight.

“Well, that’s troublesome. Who knows when it’ll be my tum if we join the queue?” Xia Fei said. “Do that old man and child also have soul power? Why am I not sensing any energy from them?”

Fuchen chuckled. “You forgot. The simulation system doesn’t require one to possess cultivation, so even the common folk who wants to experience combat can only do so through this. That’s the reason why so many people are lining up here to try this.”

Xia Fei nodded. No wonder there were so many regular people with number plates. It was not a sin for them to seek the thrill of combat, but their action had delayed what Xia Fei wanted to do; he could not help but be somewhat annoyed by this.

Fuchen said after a pause, “There are many types of soul battle simulations, with the largest network capable of reaching the most elite warriors across the universe. This sort of training method, which won’t result in any injury yet lets one gain combat experience, is very popular. The Mammoth’s soul

battle system happens to be capable of connecting to even faraway networks. Unfortunately, one must accumulate a certain number of points, obtain an ID, before they can join the higher-ranking system.”

Xia Fei sighed. “What use is there even if you tell me how good it is? I’ll go get a number first. Perhaps I’ll get to play for three hours later tonight.”

Just as he was about to approach the counter, Fuchen reached out to stop him, a big grin on his face. “No need for all that hassle. The reason why I booked the Duke Suite is that the room has a simulation system inside. There’s no need to line up there, nor is there any time limit to using it. What about it

now? Isn’t this elder very thoughtful?”

Xia Fei was surprised. So this was why Fuchen had urged him to book the Duke Suite!

“Well, that’s good. Let’s return to our room so that we can fight to our hearts’ content!” exclaimed Xia Fei excitedly.

Aside from the two bedrooms in the Duke Suite, there was a library, a gymnasium, and a guest room. The soul battle system was inside the gym.

Xia Fei pushed a button on the wall, and that wall turned, revealing the small simulation cabin behind it. Xia Fei was extremely vigilant and had the habit of inspecting the room wherever he stayed, but because this cabin had been cleverly hidden in the wall, Xia Fei had no knowledge of its existence.

“Go ahead and try it.” Fuchen pointed at the egg-shaped simulation cabin with a smile.

Xia Fei entered the cabin; inside was a sports chair, which Xia Fei hurriedly cocooned himself. The seat was wide and a lot more comfortable than an actual sports chair.

Inserting his room key and then turning it on, the simulation cabin began running. After a five-second countdown, an image appeared in front of him.

Xia Fei and Fuchen, who were now both wearing the simulation glasses, found a row of words showing up.

“Please choose, alias or real name?” Xia Fei softly repeated the words that had appeared.

Fuchen said, “This is also one of the benefits that come with a luxury suite. Some VIPs don’t like others knowing their names, so the option for using an alias is offered.”

Xia Fei did not spare a moment to think and immediately chose to use an alias. Humans feared fame like pigs feared bulking up. This was something Xia Fei subscribed to, so whatever the results of his upcoming simulated fights, he would never let others learn his identity. Being lowkey was the way.

Since he would not be using his real name, Xia Fei had to come up with a nickname. He simply keyed in ‘Xiao Fei’, a relatively common name he often used whenever he needed a fake identity. He had used it several times in the Law Realm before, too.

After setting up a password, an incognito account with the alias “Xiao Fei’ was born.

The next option would be the model.

Fuchen said, “You can choose yourself as the model, and the system will emulate your body and recreate your current condition, but I advise that you don’t do that. After all, you’re an Orthodox Spiritualist, and if word gets out, it’ll likely attract plenty of trouble to you.

“The Mammoth is too public a site right now, but you can make your own model and avoid being identified in the future once you get your hands on your own simulation cabin.”

Xia Fei nodded. Of course, having his own body as his model would be great, as he could then use his combat techniques, meaning that it would be no different from being in battle himself.

After choosing to use another model, warriors of all shapes and sizes appeared in front of Xia Fei. Every warrior had their name and dimensions, what sort of power system they possessed, and everything was described in detail.

Fuchen commented, “These warriors are all copies made from real warriors’ data. You’re a newly registered account, so all you can choose now are rank 1 models. Wait till your win rate is high enough and you’ve ranked up, then you can fight with stronger characters.”

Rank 1 warrior models were very weak, and at best, they would be newly promoted warriors with one Soul Mark. The law power that they possessed was also fairly average, with nothing particularly outstanding.

Xia Fei spent some time browsing, only to realize that finding a warrior model similar to him from the many was very difficult. In truth, even if he carefully read through all their descriptions, there was no way he would be able to find someone just like him. This was because his experience was truly too

unique, and he had learned plenty of things. Quite possibly, no one was quite like him in this universe.

Since there was no model similar to him, Xia Fei decided to let the system choose for him and ended up with a warrior model called Xiao Xing.

“Xiao Fei, Xiao Xing, that’s quite an amusing combination.” Fuchen chuckled from the sidelines.

However, when Fuchen looked at the data of Xiao Xing, his expression changed. He began muttering to himself, ‘Is this fate? Xia Fei actually drew that jinx. Forget it. I’ll just wait and see how this plays out.

*Bzzt*

With the neurotransmitter helmet activated, Xia Fei’s brain was directly connected to the system. From this point on, Xiao Xing’s every move would be in accordance with Xia Fei’s will, and any injury that the warrior model received would be sent to Xia Fei’s nervous system. Of course, this was just a

simulated sensation and would not actually deal actual damage to Xia Fei’s real body.

The system guided Xia Fei to the main program, where he could choose his opponent. He could also create a battlefield and let others choose to fight him, instead.

Xia Fei pondered for a moment before saying, “System, I want to have the battlefield set as Blizzard Valley. Accept any challenges.”

(Affirmative. The Blizzard Valley battlefield has been set. Beginning to accept the invitation now...]

*Zip*

Xia Fei’s vision blurred, and when it cleared again, he saw that he was now in an icy arena. He was right in the basin of the valley between two mountains. The landscape was covered in snow, and a chilly wind was blowing.

This was when the system prompted: [Someone has challenged you. Will you accept?]

“Display the warrior’s data,” Xia Fei stated casually. Victory could be assured when one knew both themselves and their enemy; Xia Fei was not afraid of who he might face, but understanding the opponent was something a warrior should do at all times, so it had become a habit of his by now.

He did not expect to see a row of words and images. He had no idea what those were, but it seemed that more than a hundred individuals had sought to challenge him at the same time

Xia Fei casually opened one and saw that it was an account with a real name. It was a youth around twelve of age, looking scholarly and decent with his spectacles. Because Xia Fei was not using his real name, all the opponent could see was a virtual avatar, while all the information regarding Xia Fei’s age

and sex was all left blank.

“You’re seeking death! I dare to bet that you won’t last even a round in my hands!”

“Hmph! You’re dead meat!”

Xia Fei was speechless. These challenges from these individuals were more vicious than the last. All of them swore to murder Xia Fei. In the blink of an eye, three hundred eighteen individuals had issued a challenge to him! Who knew what was wrong with them, but they all decided to challenge him

together?

Xia Fei frowned, wondering, “How strange... Did these people eat gunpowder for lunch?”

Fuchen smiled wordlessly, thinking to himself, ‘The only one you can blame is yourself for choosing Xiao Xing as your model. If not you, who else would they choose to challenge?

This was when a scene no one had expected occurred.. Xia Fei merely raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, “System, accept all these challenges for me!”
