I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 728: Global Lottery! A Special Favor for the Principal?

Lin Yi harbored no surprise at Sun Dachuan's previous faltering. His enhancement technique, in truth, placed a significant strain on the user's condition. If not for the unceasing nature of their chosen enhancement process, coupled with the vast assembly of onlookers and the clamor of the venue, Sun Dachuan would undoubtedly not have halted his efforts at that particular enhancement threshold. The sole reason Lin Yi could persistently advance to his current level was attributed to the miraculous efficacy of the [Gift of the Heavens]. Had the enhancement skill not been a part of his personal repertoire, given Lin Yi's inherent capabilities, achieving such advanced enhancement skills to rival Sun Dachuan in the limited timeframe would have been an impossibility. Relying purely on his own dedication and innate talent, Sun Dachuan displayed a formidable maneuver, capable of cleaving a seam with a solitary hammer blow – a feat that Lin Yi, at this moment, could not replicate. In this specific aspect, Lin Yi privately conceded that he had already been defeated. Nevertheless, in an effort to further spur Sun Dachuan onward, he made the decision not to cease his own actions.

The Dragon God's War Hammer continued its rhythmic descent without respite. The Eternal Ice, taking the form of a palm, persistently made contact with the equipment that glowed with a fiery red hue. Finally, upon the 644th strike of the hammer, the seam connecting +43 to +44 successfully opened. Lin Yi swiftly etched a rune within this newly formed gap and brought the hammer down once more!

Success!

Ding ding ding～

The identical procedure was repeated. Under the collective gaze of widespread anticipation, Lin Yi finally delivered the pivotal, decisive strike. The seam fractured open! A rune was meticulously inscribed! A restoration was initiated! As the palm, sculpted from Eternal Ice, fully enveloped the hammer, a +45 war hammer materialized before the assembled crowd. This unheard-of spectacle undeniably merited a cascade of thunderous applause and effusive cheers. From this day forward, the name Dragon God War God would symbolize not only unparalleled might but also unparalleled craftsmanship.

"Brother, I was truly too arrogant to have underestimated you. In the time to come, I will require your continued guidance within the Divine Refining Bureau." Sun Dachuan declared with a hearty laugh as he approached Lin Yi, placing a hand on his shoulder.

Further guidance extended to my brethren at the Divine Refining Bureau? My apologies, but Lin Yi found himself unable to ascend to such a level. Today's triumph over Sun Dachuan stemmed not from his personal mastery but from advantageous external resources. Without the Eye of All-Seeing, it would have been utterly impossible for Lin Yi to control each strike with such pinpoint accuracy. He could not possibly instruct others to meticulously observe the state of enhanced equipment with such granular detail; what enhancer wouldn't already grasp this? Stating it or withholding it offered no practical difference. The other enhancers could only aspire to rapid improvement through Sun Dachuan's tutelage. Moreover, Sun Dachuan possessed the capability to enhance the equipment to at least +44 today; it was merely the multitude of external distractions that disrupted his practiced rhythm.

"Dachuan, you flatter me. When juxtaposed with your singular technique of cleaving a seam with a hammer strike, my conventional enhancement methods have already conceded defeat. Should you proceed at a more measured pace, achieving this level of enhancement would present no significant difficulty, merely requiring the passage of time. However, for me to replicate your unique enhancement methodology? That is an impossibility within this lifetime. You are, without question, the foremost talent on Blue Star."

Lin Yi's magnanimous commendation was duly documented by the student tasked with recording the event. Across the entirety of Blue Star, Sun Dachuan was indeed the first individual to receive such high praise from Lin Yi. Even with the day's competition lost, the mere words spoken by Lin Yi were sufficient to irrevocably solidify Sun Dachuan's esteemed standing within the Divine Refining Bureau. There was simply no alternative; Lin Yi's influence and prowess were too overwhelmingly significant. When he proclaimed Sun Dachuan as the preeminent figure in equipment enhancement, who on Blue Star would dare to voice dissent? The mutual exchange of compliments between the two associates did not persist for long. Amidst a sea of profoundly envious gazes, Lin Yi returned the enhanced +45 war hammer to its rightful owner. The individual from the Divine Refining Bureau who received the weapon promptly fainted from sheer elation. It was not just that his weapon had been personally enhanced by Lin Yi, achieving a level of refinement that stood as the pinnacle on Blue Star; how could he possibly be denied due respect when wielding such a formidable hammer in future challenges, competitions, or events? In this era of instantaneous information, any significant news spreads with remarkable velocity. Especially after Lin Yi had effectively dismantled the national barriers across Blue Star, the dissemination of information became even more streamlined. In less than thirty minutes, the video footage depicting Lin Yi's successful enhancement of the equipment to +45 had permeated every corner of Blue Star. The entire equipment enhancement community across the planet was thrown into an uproar.

What in the world is this? A Mage venturing into the realm of equipment enhancement – what are the warriors and tanks who specialize in this craft supposed to do now? The professionals found their minds reeling. Who could have possibly conceived that the supreme combatant would also possess the mastery of an Enhancement Grandmaster?

While countless professionals in dire need of equipment enhancement pondered how to engage the renowned Enhancement Grandmaster Lin Yi, Lin Yi himself dropped a bombshell decision.

Lin Yi declared an extraordinary welfare event for all War God professionals across Blue Star:

The Blue Star Professional Alliance would select ninety-nine fortunate professionals globally. These individuals would have the opportunity to present any unenhanced equipment of their choice, which Lin Yi would personally elevate to a +45 grade.

For these select few, Lin Yi would waive all material costs.

These so-called material fees typically involved Spirit Crystal ores.

The remarkable ability of Spirit Crystal ores to fully restore equipment without any detrimental effects was the key.

The dust generated from pulverized Spirit Crystal ores of various grades possessed the miraculous ability to significantly boost the equipment's memory retention, thereby preventing damage during the critical seam-opening process.

In essence, for any War God, this offer represented an incredibly generous boon.

The announcement sent waves of elation through the War God-level professionals across Blue Star. A free +45 enhanced equipment—what could possibly be a more intoxicating dream?

However, participation in this coveted program came with a prerequisite: each War God was required to submit a registration fee of 200,000 Xia dollars.

Two hundred thousand Xia dollars?!

Upon learning of this financial hurdle, the War Gods initially harbored a measure of apprehension.

They harbored concerns about their ability to meet Lin Yi’s specified requirement.

Yet, upon discovering the actual condition, their apprehension evaporated, replaced by immediate jubilation!

For a powerhouse at the War God level, 200,000 was a negligible sum.

What truly capable War God professional genuinely lacked resources?

A mere 200,000 Xia dollars was insignificant, almost akin to a charitable donation. The most crucial aspect was the prospect of unimaginably vast returns should they be fortunate enough to be selected.

Consequently, the War Gods across Blue Star entered their registrations without a second thought.

Shenxiao, Principal’s office.

"Are you out of your mind, kid? Even if the price you've set is reasonable, how long do you envision yourself enhancing so many items to +45? This undertaking is sheer madness. How can you possibly sustain such an effort for that duration?"

Wanchong Mountain admonished Lin Yi sternly, his face etched with palpable concern.

Lin Yi responded with a gentle smile.

"Principal, do you doubt my capabilities? I never accept tasks I cannot fulfill. I can head directly to Antarctica and perform the enhancements amidst the freezing cold; it won't take excessively long. I have ample time, do I not?"

Wanchong Mountain’s eyes immediately brightened upon hearing this:

"If the task isn't overly burdensome, perhaps you could do the principal a small favor?"
