Within the training grounds inside the rock wall.

Kane clapped his hands, drawing the attention of Kreya and the others training nearby.

"Everyone gather around, there's something important to announce."

Upon hearing Kane's words, Kreya and the others paused what they were doing and gathered around.

It seemed that Kane had completed his skill extraction, and likely wanted them to experience and learn about the new skills to avoid misunderstandings during future cooperation.

Once everyone gathered, Kane cleared his throat.

He then addressed Kreya and Li Lulu: "Have you learned all the skill stones I gave to you before?"

Upon hearing Kane's words, Kreya and Li Lulu nodded: "We've learned them all."

"Okay," Kane nodded, then took out two metal pieces flashing with silver light from the warehouse.

"These are the new skills I just acquired, which are more suitable for both of you."

Looking at the metal pieces in Kane's hands, Kreya said in confusion: "This skill stone looks different from before, is it silver level?"

Listening to Kreya's words, Kane nodded and replied: "That's right, it's silver. Copper-level skill stones can no longer provide much improvement for you, so I'm giving you the new skills I just acquired."

"Won't it affect your strength?"

Kane shook his head.

"It won't, these skills suit you but not necessarily me. They'd rarely be used if kept with me, so it's better to give them to you."

After hearing Kane's explanation, Kreya nodded in relief.

As for Longbei and Meizike, they had no objections, knowing that their skill grids still contained skills not fully dissipated, and they hadn't mastered the skills Kane taught them last time.

"Alright, let's start the ritual now," Kane said, then looked at Kreya and said, "Kreya, you go first."

Upon hearing Kane's words, Kreya nodded and then walked to Kane.

Kane took the crystal hourglass needed for the ritual from the space equipment and held the skill stone of the Residual Soul Army.

Having prepared everything, Kane said to Kreya: "Get ready, this silver skill is different from the previous copper skills. It strikes the body and brain with more force."

Hearing Kane's words, Kreya silently nodded.

Seeing Kreya ready, Kane didn't say more and began the ritual.

He chanted the predetermined lines for the ritual, and as the crystal hourglass reversed, the skill stone merged into Kreya's body.

Kreya immediately groaned, her brow furrowed, as the massive influx of information caused her head to ache and swell.

The experience attached to the skill was engraved on her body, making her feel exceptionally uncomfortable.

Fortunately, this experience didn't last long and disappeared shortly afterward.

Seeing Kreya much calmer, Kane said: "Feel the new skill now; I'll perform the ritual for Li Lulu."

Kreya nodded, and then Li Lulu naturally floated before Kane.

Seeing Li Lulu's furrowed brow and tense body, Kane felt amused.

It seemed Kreya's appearance had frightened Li Lulu.

Looking at her, Kane comforted: "Relax, just be prepared, it's not as uncomfortable as you think, especially for mages with strong spirits, the feeling is lighter."

"Really?" Li Lulu was somewhat skeptical.

"Of course, would I lie to you?"

Upon hearing Kane's words, Li Lulu's mouth twitched, reluctant to respond.

"Why that expression? Have I ever lied to you?"

Li Lulu waved her hand dismissively: "Start the ritual quickly, Li Lulu is prepared mentally."

Hearing Li Lulu's words, Kane stopped hesitating, controlled the crystal hourglass, and chanted the embarrassing lines as the skill stone merged into Li Lulu's body.

As the skill stone entered, Li Lulu only slightly furrowed her brow, feeling a slight swelling in her head, which soon faded away, returning to normal.

The knowledge and experience attached to the skill had already fused into her mind.

By this time, Kreya had absorbed all the knowledge and experience from the skill and understood roughly how to use her skills.

In front of everyone, she began to use her skill.

First, she switched to heavy armor, wrapping her body tightly, with its sharp edges.

Her weapon changed to a shield and a massive lance, a weapon Kreya hadn't used for a long time.

Then a flash of blue light appeared on her body.

When the blue light vanished, Kreya's appearance shifted again.

This time she wore light leather armor, which she had rarely worn, and held a throwing spear, the weapon obtained during the final stage in Demon Valley, which could automatically retrieve itself.

Again, a blue light flashed.

The blue light flashed twice, and Kane understood that this should be the skill storage mentioned, allowing for more options when using skills.

Finally, Kreya changed her outfit, wearing a knight's armor of the light armor type, holding a horse-cutting saber and a shield.

The blue light flashed again.

Then Kreya switched back to her original outfit.

Magic power began to surge from her body.

Three ghostly centaur-like figures appeared beside her.

These figures resembled Kreya but had indistinct facial features, forming a haze of ghostly pallor.

Their weapons and outfits were the three different sets Kreya had just switched to.

Next, Kreya took two steps in place, seemingly sensing something, and entered a ghostly state. She then continued using her skill, her ghostly pallor turning into burning blue flames.

The flames began to spread among the figures, and the three figures summoned by Kreya also ignited with blue fire.

Indeed, the skills of the same type are more compatible and benefit from combining, achieving an effect greater than the sum of their parts.

This skill was indeed perfect for Kreya.

Watching Kreya, Kane asked, "How's the skill? Does it suit you?"

Upon hearing Kane's words, Kreya nodded with satisfaction.

"This skill is really interesting, it perfectly complements my previous skills."

"How powerful are these residual souls?"

Kane couldn't help but be concerned about this matter as it was crucial.

After thinking for a while, Kreya replied, "These shadows can't use skills like me; they can only use the close combat techniques I know, and their constitution and strength are like mine but don't enjoy the equipment attribute bonus."

Upon hearing Kreya's words, Kane nodded, confirming that the skill was indeed fitting for Kreya, but not suitable for him.

The team had only three characters with strong constitutions: Kane, Longbei, and Kreya.

Kane's strong constitution was due to his use of numerous pieces of equipment and skills, resulting in joint reinforcement effects.

Longbei's inherent constitution was only slightly stronger than Kreya's, but his body was extremely inflexible.

While Kreya's natural constitution was one of the strongest in the team, coupled with an agile body and powerful close combat techniques.

This skill was indeed perfect for her, especially since it could combine with her other skills.

Kane had one last question about the skill.

"How many residual souls can you summon to aid in battle?"

"Haven't tried, not too sure, but I can give it a try." After saying that, Kreya urged the magic power within her, consuming it furiously.

Behind her, figures continuously appeared, wearing various outfits, different copies from the blueprints.

Finally, the number of figures reached its maximum, totaling 44.

Among them, four figures looked different compared to the other residual souls.

Three belonged to three different versions, appearing more substantial and stronger than the other residual souls.

The last was identical to Kreya's current outfit.

The summoning had consumed quite a lot of Kreya's magic power, as she stood catching her breath, easing her expenditure.

"Managed to summon all available slots, but magic power is almost depleted, it's somewhat a losing trade."

As Kreya spoke, the blue flames on her body quickly spread throughout the team; soon everyone was burning with the same flames.

After looking around, Kreya led the charge, sprinting around the arena.

Since all centaurs were in soul state, they moved swiftly, forming a surging wave of pallor forward.

While running, their formation visibly changed continuously, unclear if Kreya was controlling them or they were self-adjusting.

After all, the introduction indicated their intelligence wasn't high, though their combat wisdom was extremely strong.

After a lap, the centaurs vanished one after another, then Kreya alone returned to their side.

"This skill is powerful!"

Upon returning, Kreya said this and then produced a carpet and sat down to rest.

Watching Kreya rest, Kane refrained from disturbing her and turned to see Lilulu intensely concentrating on something as if analyzing.

"Lilulu, how's it going? Have you learned it?"

Upon hearing Kane, Lilulu shook her head and then nodded: "Don't disturb Lilulu, this skill feels somewhat tricky, Lilulu needs to study it thoroughly."

Upon hearing Lilulu, Kane raised an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued.

The skill description didn't highlight anything strange, yet Lilulu felt something was off or peculiar.

It seemed like Lilulu would use her Fairy Tale Magic to modify the skill.
