"System, can the evolution card be used on the Eight Spider Lances?" Mu Chen asked.
"The system confirms that the Eight Spider Lances are an external soul bone and can indeed be enhanced with a low-level evolution card," the system replied.
"What about my martial soul?" Mu Chen inquired again.
"A low-level evolution card is insufficient for martial soul evolution. To evolve a martial soul, a high-level evolution card is required at a minimum. The evolution cards come in four grades: low-level, mid-level, high-level, and ultimate. The higher the grade of the evolution card, the better the effects of the evolution," the system explained.
"System, use the evolution card on my external soul bone, the Eight Spider Lances," Mu Chen commanded.
As soon as Mu Chen finished speaking, the golden evolution card in his system package vanished. A warm sensation spread across his back, and the system's voice echoed again.
**Ding!**
"Congratulations! You have successfully used a low-level evolution card. The Eight Spider Lances have evolved into the Chaos Eight Wings."
"What?!"
Mu Chen stopped in his tracks, questioning if he had misheard. "System, did you say the Eight Spider Lances evolved into the Chaos Eight Wings?"
**Ding!** "Yes, host. You just used a low-level evolution card, and your external soul bone has evolved into the Chaos Eight Wings."
"Chaos Eight Wings?" Mu Chen marveled internally.
Being familiar with the storyline of Douluo, Mu Chen knew that Tang San had his Eight Spider Lances evolve into the Sea God's Eight Wings during his trials. Now, using just a low-level evolution card, his Eight Spider Lances had unexpectedly evolved into the Chaos Eight Wings.
*Whoosh!*
With lingering doubts, Mu Chen concentrated, and five colors of light—yellow, red, blue, silver, and emerald—shone from behind him as eight wings, as thin as cicada wings, unfurled.
The wings shimmered with radiant colors, extending two meters in length. They looked stunningly beautiful.
"Wow!"
"Wow!"
"Wow!"
Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun were all astonished as they gazed at Mu Chen.
"Boss Mu, what kind of soul skill is this? Can you teach me? This beautiful soul skill would be perfect for charming girls!" Ma Hongjun said, captivated.
With Mu Chen's array of self-created soul skills, the Shrek Seven believed this must be his latest creation.
Even a guy like Ma Hongjun was enchanted by the dazzling external soul bone, not to mention the girls—Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong—who were all looking at Mu Chen with admiration, hoping he would share this stunning soul skill with them.
"Fatty, what nonsense are you spouting? This is my external soul bone," Mu Chen clarified.
"External soul bone?" Ma Hongjun questioned. "Wasn't your external soul bone the Eight Spider Lances? How did it turn into wings?"
"Because it evolved," Mu Chen replied.
"Evolved?"
"Evolved?"
"Evolved?"
The Shrek Seven, along with Flander and Zhao Wujin, stared at Mu Chen in shock. They couldn't believe that soul bones could evolve!
"Yes, I'm not sure how it happened, but my soul bone did indeed evolve during the battle with the Royal Battle Team," Mu Chen casually explained. He didn't plan to share the details of the system with his companions; after all, everyone has a little secret.
"Boss Mu, you're really a monster," Dai Mubai said enviously.
"We're all monsters," Mu Chen replied.
"Boss Mu, you…" Dai Mubai was speechless, finding Mu Chen's arrogance over the top.
"Mu Chen, what abilities does the Eight Spider Lances have after evolving?" Flander, as the head of Shrek Academy, inquired curiously.
Not just Flander, but all the teachers present, including the Shrek Seven, were eager to hear Mu Chen's answer. Especially Tang San, whose external soul bone was also the Eight Spider Lances.
Mu Chen answered, "The evolved Chaos Eight Wings inherit the enhancement and absorption abilities of the Eight Spider Lances. They can absorb the opponent's soul power and fully replenish my own soul power consumption, along with being laced with deadly poison. The original enhancement effect of the Eight Spider Lances was 50%, but it has now increased to 100%."
"100%?" Flander exclaimed.
A 100% enhancement across all attributes meant that Mu Chen's resistance to various elements and his elemental attack power would double, effectively granting him double combat capability.
"Yes. Additionally, I now possess the ability to fly. My flight speed is approximately ten times that of a Phoenix-tailed Chicken Snake, and there are no time restrictions," Mu Chen elaborated further.
"What?!"
"Ten times the speed of a Phoenix-tailed Chicken Snake?"
"And it's unlimited time?"
Even Flander, a soul sage over level seventy, looked at Mu Chen in astonishment. The flight capability of the Chaos Eight Wings was terrifying.
"Yes," Mu Chen nodded. He speculated that his ability to attain such incredible speed was likely related to his fifth soul ring, which had enhanced his wind attribute affinity.
"You're smiling so brightly; does it have other special abilities?" Flander's keen eyes caught the smirk on Mu Chen's lips.
"In addition, the Chaos Eight Wings completely eliminate the downside of using external soul bones," Mu Chen stated.
"You mean, even if you retract the soul bone, you won't lose a third of your soul power anymore?" Flander's eyes widened. If that were true, then Mu Chen's Chaos Eight Wings would be a perfect external soul bone.
"Yes," Mu Chen confirmed with a nod.
*Huff!*
Hearing Mu Chen's affirmation, the Shrek Seven gasped in surprise. Especially Tang San, who understood that using an external soul bone typically resulted in a one-third reduction in soul power when retracting it. However, Mu Chen's Chaos Eight Wings had no such drawback.
"Xiao San, why are you in a daze?"
Flander gently patted Tang San's shoulder and continued, "And you all. You're all quite outstanding; your innate cultivation talent is remarkable among your peers. You just happened to meet an extraordinary Mu Chen. You can take Mu Chen as a role model, but don't compare yourselves to him because he's on another level."
"Uh!"
Mu Chen was taken aback and shot Flander a sidelong glance.
In truth, Flander and the others were unaware that Mu Chen's list of abilities didn't stop there. In addition to these powers, the defense of the Eight Spider Lances had significantly improved. Furthermore, the wings possessed cutting abilities akin to blades. The evolved Eight Spider Lances could be considered a divine artifact!
Just as Mu Chen and the others stepped out of the Great Soul Arena, they were stopped by three individuals—two elders and a youth.
"Dragon Prince? Snake Lady?" Flander exclaimed in shock.
