~~~~~~~~

Thanks to User for being first place in his first tournament, the [Gacha] feature has been unlocked!

~~~~~~~~

"Gacha?" Shi Li tilted his head as he didn't expect this feature to pop up. In his previous life, the word gacha was usually attributed to those games that rely on a random number generator to pick out a certain item or hero for the person to use. It became a hit in his world back then and some even went far enough to spend money that ranged in the tens of thousands.

Seeing that a gacha would definitely give him a chance of getting something good there, Shi Li looked at Moddy and said, "Better hold on tight. We're going back to the courtyard as fast as possible."

Moddy, who was still admiring the nature surrounding them, asked, "Nya—"

As it tried to ask, Shi Li instantly activated [Overlimit] and exertrd all of his strength through his legs, travelling across tens of meters with a single step.

"Nyaaaaa! I wasn't ready-nyaaaa..." Moddy struggled to hold onto Shi Li's shoulders as they ran.

...

Shi clan, Shi Li's courtyard.

"Haaaa..." Shi Li gasped for air as he lied down on the ground. Moddy also lied down on the ground as it was tired holding onto Shi Li's shoulder.

"Nyaaaa...nyaaa....why'd you...run so fast-nya..." Moddy tried to ask Shi Li as it panted.

Shi Li composed himself and took a deep breath before answering Moddy's question. "My bloodline interface got a new feature."

"Bloodline interface...white plate-nya?" Moddy tilted its head as its breathing was already stable.

"Yeah, that," Shi Li nodded, "Wanna check it out with me?"

"Sure-nya," Moddy nodded as it went back to Shi Li's shoulder.

After confirming that Moddy was comfortable, Shi Li then muttered out, "[Gacha]."

Weeeennnggg....

In a matter of seconds, a white screen the size of a table mat appeared in front of Shi Li. Not long after, the white screen gained vivid colors as certain parts of the screen were emphasized. Words and numbers also started to appear on the screen.

~~~~~~~~

[Gacha]

[Summoning Points]: 0

[Common Gacha]

[Get items and techniques ranging from D grade to C+++ grade!]

[FREE SUMMON AVAILABLE]

[Premium Gacha]

[Get items and techniques ranging from C grade to A+++ grade!]

[FREE SUMMON AVAILABLE]

[Grand Gacha]

[Get items and techniques ranging from A to SSS+++ grade!]

[SUMMONING POINTS NEEDED: 10000]

~~~~~~~~

Shi Li took a step back because of his utter disbelief of the words written on the screen.

'The normal gacha alone gives me the chance to get an item or technique at C+++ grade, that's Peak Earth grade! We only have Middle Earth grade at most, and that's for Creation realm techniques and items!'

'The premium gacha goes up to A+++ grade... so D is Human grade, C is Earth grade, B is Sky Grade. A is a grade beyond the Sky... I'll just call it Transcendent grade for now. But still, a technique at the true Sky grade hasn't even been seen in this town, let alone a Transcendent grade technique!'

'Now the grand gacha, this goes up to SSS+++ grade. As far as I remember, the grades for items and techniques range from D to SSS+++ grade, 7 letter things—I mean realms of power. That means SSS+++ is like super overpowered, but that's a given coming from the name alone. But the question is that I need summoning points to pull for the grand gacha.'

'How do I earn summoning points?'

As this question appeared on Shi Li's head, a separate screen materialized right beside the gacha screen.

~~~~~~~~

Summoning points can be obtained through special actions done through the Nonpareil Eye Interface.

- Nonpareil Eye Interface

~~~~~~~~

'Special actions? Like what?' Shi Li pondered about the phrase, but not long after, decide to keep it for later and pull the gacha.

"Let's start with the normal gacha," Shi Li said all of a sudden, shocking Moddy.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the content shown on the gacha screen was changed into a simple layout where a certain part was emphasized right in the center. The background was also changed as well, showing a serene forest filled with various animals and plants.

~~~~~~~~

[Normal Gacha]

[Drop rates have been increased!]

[FREE SUMMON AVAILABLE]

[Summon]

~~~~~~~~

"Oh? Drop rates have been increased huh? Does that mean that I have a higher chance of obtaining a better item?" Shi Li couldn't help but chuckle at those words. In his previous life, increasing drop rates didn't even matter for gacha at all, it was still a matter of the random number generator bending to your will.

"Anyways, let's summon!"

In a brief amount of time, the button was removed, as well as the text, being replaced with two bars that had the words 'Type of Technique' and 'Grade' over it respectively.

The text shown in the bars switched multiple times at a very fast rate before stopping at a certain time, revealing what Shi Li got. Moddy also leaned its head, curious of what Shi Li's white plate is doing.

~~~~~~~~

[Type of Technique]:

Martial Technique

[Grade]:

C+

~~~~~~~~

Putong.

Shi Li instantly kneeled down in front of the screen and couldn't help but say, "Interface, I love you!"

Moddy looked at Shi Li weirdly before asking, "Why'd you say that Shi Li-nya?"

Shi Li looked at Moddy and replied with a frown, "Can't you see what this interface gave me. It's a C+ grade martial technique! A martial technique of the Middle Earth grade! Techniques of that grades are already rare in this town!"

"Nyah. I see-nya. Gomenyasai," Moddy saw Shi Li's fanatic look and replied monotonously.

Shi Li ignored Moddy's apology and looked at the screen to find out what was going to happen next.

But he wasn't prepared for what was going to come as not long after, a beam of light shone down from the sky towards Shi Li's palm, dropping a black book at decently high speeds.

Shi Li saw the book coming down and hurriedly extended his arms, catching the black book.

Shi Li's eyes glistened as he turned his head to face the black book, but his expression turned sour after looking at the book for a while.

The black book was purely black. It was as if it sucked all of the light from the surroundings, becoming a two dimensional shape to one's eyes. If it wasn't for Shi Li's feeling the edges of the book, he would definitely believe that the book was two dimensional.

"Now what?" Shi Li grumbled as a small screen appeared on the book.

~~~~~~~~

Would you like to identify the book using 20% of user's mental energy?

Current mental energy level: 142%

~~~~~~~~

Seeing that he still a lot, Shi Li said yes. Within seconds, the black.cover was replaced with a green cover with the texture of a turtle's carapace. In the middle of the book was the shape of hammer which was colored in silver, glistening whenever the sun's rays hit it.

~~~~~~~~

Identification successful!

~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~

[Revenge of the Tortoise]

[Item Type]: Martial Technique

[Grade]: C+

[Author]: Nonpareil Eye Interface

[Amount of Pages]: ???

A martial technique suited for the hard-hitting hammer, this technique was inspired from the way turtles move, slow yet powerful. With the help of this technique, the cultivator is able to unleash attacks of great power at high speeds while appearing to move slow in front of the opponent.

Flaws: 532

(Can be fixed twice)

~~~~~~~~

Shi Li rubbed his eyes as he read the last line on the screen. 'Did I read that right? This technique can be fixed twice?'

He rubbed his eyes once more and even slapped himself, yet the words stayed the same. After confirming it was real, Shi Li jumped with joy as he evilly laughed.

"Hehehe...with this technique, it'll be easier to crush the Huang clan."

After confirming the contents available within the book were understandable, Shi Li moved on to the next one.

"Premium gacha."

Whoosh!

~~~~~~~~

[Premium Gacha]

[Drop rates have been increased!]

[FREE SUMMON AVAILABLE]

[Summon]

~~~~~~~~

"Drop rates have been increased for the premium gacha as well?" Shi Li felt that something fishy was happening, but he shrugged it off.

"Summon!"

The layout was changed once more into two bars, showing the type of technique and the grade of the technique Shi Li would get. After a while, the bars stopped, shocking Shi Li from the results.

~~~~~~~~

[Type of Technique]:

Cultivation Technique

[Grade]:

B+++

~~~~~~~~

"Y-you're joking..." Shi Li couldn't believe it. "That's a fucking Peak Sky grade technique right there!"

The lowest grade of techniques are Human grade, next comes Earth grade, and after that comes Sky grade. Sky grade techniques are extremely rare within Verdant Breeze Town, but once gets ahold of one, it wouldn't be impossible for that person to rule over the town singlehandedly.

Another beam of light shone down on Shi Li's palms, but this time, instead of a black book, the color of the book was a beautiful gold.

At the exact moment the book landed on Shi Li's palms, the weight of the book drastically increased, forcing him to use more of his strength.

"Damn...this is too heavy..." Shi Li muttered out.

Yet all of a sudden, the weight of the book lightened to a degree where Shi Li can lift it up and down freely. He wondered as to what happened and looked below the book. To his surprise, Moddy was lifting the book without any problem.

"What the...Moddy, how are you doing this?" Shi Li asked with curiosity.

"I was always able to do this-nya. That log in the forest wouldn't be there if it wasn't for me-nya. Anyways, even though you were speaking about things I didn't understand, you looked like you were struggling-nya, so I came to help-nya!" Moddy replied with a smile.

"Well..." Shi Li smiled, "You're helping me a lot right now Moddy. Hold that pose for a bit."

~~~~~~~~

Would you like to identify the book using 60% of user's mental energy?

Current mental energy level: 122%

~~~~~~~~

Shi Li weighed the pros and cons for a bit as he rubbed his chin. Not long after, he gave his answer.

"Yes."
