Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Ancient Divine Weapon, Fuxi Qin!
To form a contract between a Spirit Contract Master and a Spirit, an absolutely quiet environment is required.
In Qingteng Academy, there is a dedicated contract room provided for Spirit Contract Masters and their Spirits in need.
Xia Youwei's hand, held tightly by Han Zhan, was sweating nervously.
Although she was the school beauty, she had always maintained her purity, keeping a respectful distance from admirers and had never even held a boy's hand.
Now, as she looked at Han Zhan walking ahead, she suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of security. Thump, thump. Her heart raced like a startled deer.
"Are you very hot? Why is your hand so sweaty?" Han Zhan, walking ahead, suddenly asked without turning his head.
"Ah?"
"Ah, what? Stop spacing out, hurry up and go in."
As Han Zhan spoke, he pushed open the door of a contract room and stepped inside.
"Oh, oh." Xia Youwei, snapped out of her thoughts by his sudden words, quickly followed him, her face flushing red.
The contract room was very small. Once the two of them entered, it instantly became even more cramped.
Han Zhan could feel Xia Youwei's warm breath brushing against his neck, tickling him.
And that unique fragrance of a young girl filled the air, making it hard for him not to feel a stirring in his heart.
Usually, she wore loose school uniforms, so nothing was obvious to the naked eye. But in this confined space, Han Zhan genuinely felt an overwhelming pressure from the front.
'Truly magnificent', thought Han Zhan, the word flashing through his mind.
Xia Youwei's face turned even redder.
At this moment, she was so shy that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. It was simply too embarrassing.
But this was her natural figure. Even though she tried her best to avoid touching Han Zhan, she still couldn't help occasionally brushing against him.
"Ahem, let's begin." Han Zhan, sitting opposite her, slightly straightened his posture and said.
"Alright." Xia Youwei replied in a small voice, feeling as if her head was about to explode from the heat.
"Calm your mind and focus."
Han Zhan let out a low shout, then began performing the pact formation technique from memory, his hands forming intricate gestures.
A faint golden contract array began forming beneath their feet, shifting with his hand movements.
Within the golden array, threads of golden chains took shape, interweaving and tightly binding Han Zhan and Xia Youwei together.
These golden chains connected their souls, enabling them to understand each other's intentions.
If it were an ordinary contract, it could have ended at this point.
But at this moment, Han Zhan suddenly let out another low shout. He abruptly stood up, bringing his hands together, fingers forming a blade-like shape.
"Divine Illumination!"
As he uttered these two words, he reopened his eyes, now entirely transformed into radiant golden hues.
In his golden pupils, Xia Youwei's seated figure was vividly reflected.
Xia Youwei immediately felt as though her entire body was exposed, causing her to panic and instinctively cover her critical areas with her hands.
But in the next second,
A faintly perceptible sound of a zither seemed to descend from the heavens, echoing in her ears.
Xia Youwei uncontrollably transformed into her Spirit form.
It was a guqin.
The instrument was entirely pink, with distinct and intricate patterns on its body exuding an air of sanctity. A subtle radiance seamlessly merged with its surface, evoking a unique aura.
The longer Han Zhan gazed at it,
A gentle white light began to glow, the ethereal zither sound lingering in the air. The untouched strings resonated with Han Zhan's Divine Illumination, seemingly in harmony.
Ancient Divine Weapon, Fuxi Qin.
At that moment, under Han Zhan's Divine Illumination, the Fuxi Qin finally underwent a divine revival, fully awakening.
In Han Zhan's vision, Xia Youwei's information underwent a complete transformation.
[Xia Youwei, SSS-grade Spirit.]
[Manifestation form: Ancient Divine Weapon - Fuxi Qin.]
[Trait: None.]
[Divinity: Sword Heart and Qin Spirit.]
With the contract complete, Han Zhan and Xia Youwei instantly received an influx of information in their minds as Spirit Contract Master and Spirit.
Han Zhan also fully understood the power of Sword Heart and Qin Spirit.
As one of the top ten ancient divine weapons, the Fuxi Qin, when used to play various tunes, could invoke a range of potent effects under the enhancement of Sword Heart and Qin Spirit.
The only caveat was that extremely powerful melodies couldn't be controlled at their current level. Forcing it would lead to backlash from the Fuxi Qin, causing severe consequences.
Spirit Contract Masters and Spirits alike were categorized into stages, ranging from Rank 1 to Rank 9.
A newly awakened Spirit Pact Master was Rank 1, as was their Spirit.
In Han Zhan's mind, three melodies suitable for his current stage emerged:
The battle-focused "Battle Array Melody," the healing "Serene Heart Tune," and the support-oriented "Dragon Soaring Symphony."
With these three melodies, Han Zhan was absolutely confident he could shock everyone in tomorrow's Spirit Contract Master assessment.
Xia Youwei also returned from her Fuxi Qin manifestation, holding her chest with both hands, still in disbelief. She couldn't fathom how her originally E-grade Spirit had suddenly turned into SSS-grade.
'How can this be?'
But it had happened.
And the one who made it all possible was Han Zhan before her.
It was as though he had been sent by the heavens to save her, pulling her out of the mire at her most desperate moment.
"Thank you, Han Zhan."
Hearing her voice, Han Zhan suddenly felt a warm, light touch on his cheek, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of water.
When he looked, he saw Xia Youwei, face flushed red, fleeing the contract room without looking back.
"Hmm… That wasn't bad," Han Zhan thought happily.
———
"Godfather, that bastard Han Zhan embarrassed your goddaughter so much today at Qingteng Academy. You must compensate me,"
Meanwhile, Xiao Mei clung to Zhao Hu's arm, speaking in a coquettish tone.
Zhao Hu laughed heartily, giving her butt a firm squeeze.
"Hahaha, don't worry. I'll make sure he can't survive in Deep Blue City."
"Just watch. For tomorrow's Spirit Pact Master assessment, I've already made arrangements. If he passes, I, Zhao Hu, will take his surname."
"Isn't that a bit extreme? After all, he's an SSS-grade Spirit Pact Master. Aren't you making an enemy of him for life?" Xiao Mei hesitated.
"What's the problem? In Deep Blue City, I, Zhao Hu, am the law."
As Zhao Hu spoke, his eyes flashed with an eerie, pale, insectoid shadow.
"But you, my dear goddaughter, since I'm avenging you so thoroughly, how are you planning to repay me?" Zhao Hu shifted his tone, leering at Xiao Mei.
"Wouldn't that be inappropriate? Stepmom's just outside. Let me deal with that S-grade Spirit Pact Master first, and then we can… Ah!" Xiao Mei giggled as she lightly pushed Zhao Hu.
Unbothered, Zhao Hu scooped her up entirely.
"Then let's deal with tonight first."
