Free Web NovelChapter 115: Chapter 115: Duel Law and Class Pressure
The Crimson Sand Arena rewards gave Qin Yuheng another piece of protection.
After evolving the S Grade Crimson Sand Arena Chest, he obtained:
[SSS Grade Crimson Law Arena Core x1]
[SS Grade Skill Book: Thunder Duel Breaking Step x1]
[SS Grade Duel Law Shield Crystal x1]
[S Grade Arena Champion Blood Fruit x1]
[S Grade Victory Banner Fragment x1]
The Duel Law Shield Crystal mattered most.
After enhancement, it became:
[SSS Grade Sovereign Duel Law Shield Crystal]
[Effect: Resists forced duel binding, isolates hostile challenge laws, weakens arena-type suppression, and protects team members from forced separation rules.]
Qin Yuheng immediately gave it to Qin Wanshan for family protection planning.
Qin Wanshan’s expression was grimly pleased.
"Blood Sun likes forced conditions. This blocks one category."
Qin Zhengyuan nodded.
"Not all. But one."
The Victory Banner Fragment joined the growing collection of command-related class materials. freewebnovel.cσ๓
Qin Yuheng’s future class path now had more ingredients than most post-First-Gate climbers could dream of.
But that created a new problem.
Too many high-grade materials could destabilize class fusion.
Qin Mo explained it bluntly after studying the Class Fusion Guide Crystal. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"Imagine cooking soup."
Qin Yuheng looked at him.
"Go on."
"If you add one rare herb, good. If you add ten rare herbs with different properties, maybe divine soup. Maybe poison. Maybe explosion."
"So class fusion is soup."
"Dangerous soul soup."
Qin Yuheng accepted the analogy.
The materials needed a core theme.
He wrote the current themes again:
Gate.
Thunder.
Command.
Spear.
Team.
Law resistance.
Beacon.
Battlefield.
Too broad.
He had to reduce.
The public class should perhaps be:
Tri-Gate Thunder Commander
It explained First Gate Perfect Clear, thunder-body talent, and leadership.
The hidden compatible direction could include spear and battlefield command without name exposure.
Spear materials could support internal structure, not public identity.
Qin Zhengyuan approved the thought.
"Do not put spear in the name yet."
Qin Wanshan agreed.
"The Qin spear path should not be announced."
Mu Qinglan added, "Nor should command imply ancient bloodline authority."
Thus the tentative class name became:
Tri-Gate Thunder Commander
But Qin Yuheng still waited.
Floors 18 and 19 remained before Floor 20.
Floor 18 file soon arrived.
[Floor 18: Starfall Quarry]
Type:
Mining / falling star fragments / gravity pressure / stone beasts.
Possible rewards:
Star Iron Ore
Gravity Stone
Starfall Core
Weapon refining materials
Tie Zhenshan became unusually excited.
"Star Iron," he said. "Bring back as much as you can without dying."
Qin Mo muttered, "That condition is always implied."
Floor 18 was a resource floor, but resource floors were often dangerous because greed created collapse.
Qin Yuheng prepared mining tools, gravity resistance talismans, storage capacity, and detection stones.
Starfall Quarry began beneath a night sky filled with falling lights.
Meteor fragments crashed into distant stone pits, sending tremors through the ground.
Mission panel:
[Floor 18: Starfall Quarry]
[Main Mission]
Collect 30 Star Iron Ores and reach extraction platform within 20 hours.
[Sub-Missions]
1. Avoid meteor impact zones.
2. Defeat 20 Quarry Stone Beasts.
3. Collect 3 Gravity Stones.
4. Discover the Starfall Core Chamber.
Qin Mo looked at the last sub-mission.
"Discover, not clear. Maybe we can discover from a distance."
They mined carefully.
Star Iron Ore was heavy, filled with faint starlight. Qin Yuheng’s hidden panel confirmed it was excellent forging material.
Stone Beasts attacked when ore veins were disturbed. They were slow but durable. Qin Yuheng’s team used joint attacks to break cores.
The hardest part was gravity fluctuation.
Every time a meteor fell nearby, gravity doubled or shifted sideways.
Qin Mo’s formations stabilized mining zones.
Qin Lian scouted impact warnings.
Qin Yuchen protected miners from Stone Beasts.
Qin Yuheng carried the heaviest ore loads.
They collected the main quota and three Gravity Stones.
Then they found a cracked tunnel leading underground.
At its entrance floated starlight.
[Starfall Core Chamber detected.]
Qin Mo pointed at the mission text.
"Discovered. We can leave."
Qin Yuheng looked inside.
A pulse of powerful star-metal energy came from within.
Tie Zhenshan’s future forging plans flashed in his mind.
"We inspect entrance only."
Qin Mo groaned.
Inside, they found a chamber containing a large Starfall Core guarded by a Level 30 Star Stone Golem.
They did not fight directly at first.
Instead, Qin Mo discovered the chamber had mining stabilizers. If activated, the golem’s regeneration slowed.
The fight became possible.
The Star Stone Golem hit harder than the Crimson Arena Lord, but it was slower. Qin Yuheng used War Thunder Advance to hold pressure. Qin Yuchen attacked joints. Qin Lian targeted rune cracks. Qin Mo activated stabilizers.
After a long battle, the golem fell.
They obtained the Starfall Core.
Settlement: SSS.
Rewards included S Grade Starfall Quarry Chest, A Grade Starfall Core, A Grade Gravity Stone Bundle, Star Iron Ore Bundle, and S Grade Star Metal Refining Blueprint.
Tie Zhenshan almost cried when he saw the evolved materials later.
Qin Yuheng multiplied Star Iron Ore.
[A Grade Star Iron Ore Bundle]
↓
[A Grade Star Iron Ore Bundle x160]
The Qin family’s forging foundation rose again.
But the Starfall Core also resonated faintly with class fusion.
Star.
Gate.
Command.
Too many directions.
Qin Yuheng stored it.
One more floor before Floor 20.
One more chance to complete the class foundation.
