If it was any other leader, they wouldn't entrust a new samurai with such an important task. However, Oda Nobunaga was different. He did not stick to one pattern and chose to bet a portion of his important chips on Li Shuyi, a newcomer.
In fact, from Oda Nobunaga's point of view, the difference between the Oda Army and the Imagawa Army was obvious. If they didn't find a way to win by surprise, they wouldn't be able to win in a direct confrontation.
With the help of the Oda Army's elite ninjas, the First Hidden Katana Squadron, Li Shuyi shone brightly on the battlefield. One after another, she assassinated two of the Imagawa Army's leaders. In both camps, she earned the title of "Night Falcon Ghost Concubine."
Li Shuyi relied on White Eagle Er Er to sneak into the enemy's camp during the night. She relied on her high damage output and lifesteal ability to exchange damage with the target's general. She would usually kill the target within a few minutes. When the Imagawa Army's reinforcements arrived and killed the First Hidden Katana Squadron, they could only see the general's corpse and White Eagle's figure disappearing into the distance.
In Japan, "Ghost Concubine" and "Ghost Concubine" didn't have much of a negative connotation. They were used to describe a person who was so strong that it made others fearful.
In the end, Oda Nobunaga gave Li Shuyi the mission to assassinate Imagawa Yoshimoto. When Li Shuyi and the Ninja Brigade were engaged in a bloody battle with Imagawa Yoshimoto and his loyal retainers, the Oda Army took the opportunity to advance. Taking advantage of the Imagawa Army's lack of command, they won the battle despite being outnumbered.
This battle was indeed the most dangerous one in Li Shuyi's Hero Trial. Not only did she use the Strength Zombie Talisman, but she also used both the "Summon Water Elemental" and the "Land of Entwined Vines" scrolls to barely maintain the situation. In addition, the Ninja Brigade's First Hidden Katana Squadron had all died in battle.
Li Shuyi's assassination of Imagawa Yoshimoto was considered to have completed the mission. She also received a relatively high evaluation.
The Hero Trial's requirement was for an elite class to take the head of a Daimyo who was worth 500,000 or more. The difficulty was already at the level of an S-Ranked elite. In fact, it was more focused on the trial taker's intelligence. It didn't necessarily require the trial taker to kill the target.
Li Shuyi, on the other hand, had completed the task with his own strength. Therefore, he had obtained a high score of 91 points. Of course, if she didn't have the help of the Oda Army's Ninja Unit, she would've gotten a higher score if she killed it alone, which is obviously an impossible task.
The final reward given by the Spirit Realm was an ancient mask that was used to suppress the Jinchuan family's ancestral temple. After the psionic particles were injected into the ancient mask, it became the exclusive equipment of Li Shuyi's heroic class.
The Face of the Demon Ghost.
Bai Xiaowen and Qiao Rui were curious as they looked at the attributes of the exclusive equipment.
[Demonic Ghost Mask (Exclusive Binding)]
[Grade: Growth-type Special Equipment (Black)]
[Equipment position: Head]
[Prerequisite: Exclusive]
[Attributes: Spirit + 4]
[Additional Skill: Demonic Ghost Force: Passive. You are immune to Spiritual Attack Spells of Priority (7) and below (including 7). Actively activating the Ghost Demon's Power will cause your next physical attack to be a guaranteed Critical Hit, and the damage of that Critical Hit will be increased to 250%.]
[Durability: Indestructible]
[Description: This strange mask will absorb the resentment of the dead and continue to grow.]
"Judging from the current attributes of this equipment, it's probably between a Gold equipment and a Dark Gold equipment," Bai Xiaowen said. "However, as an exclusive equipment, it will continue to grow and should become more powerful in the future."
Li Shuyi nodded and said, "I can see the resentment progress bar of the Demonic Ghost Mask. It needs 100 points of resentment to upgrade to the next level."
"This is a bit like the Black Soul Stone," Bai Xiaowen said.
"It should be inferior to the Black Soul Stone," Qiao Rui said. "The Black Soul Stone is the best exclusive equipment I've ever seen."
After obtaining the Demonic Ghost Mask, Li Shuyi replaced the Ghost Mist Veil that he was wearing. Both equipment gave + 4 Spirit, but the difference was the additional skill. The Ghost Mist Veil's "Spirit recovery by 1 point per minute" was good, but it was much inferior to the Ghost Demon's Power, and the latter still had room for improvement.
With that said, Li Shuyi canceled the Demonic Ghost Mask and revealed the true appearance of the equipment.
The mask was smeared with oil paint. It was the image of a Ghost Concubine with a pair of sharp horns and a slightly open mouth. It was buckled on Li Shuyi's head and only covered his forehead.
Under normal circumstances, others would be able to see Li Shuyi's delicate and pretty face under the mask of the Demonic Ghost. However, Li Shuyi had tested it before. Once the Ghost Demon's Power active effect was activated, the mask would automatically buckle down and cover the entire face. It was as scary as the real Ghost Concubine.
It was worth mentioning that after upgrading to a Hero Class, Li Shuyi's level remained at Level 7 and did not drop.
However, Li Shuyi was compensated with her basic attributes. Moreover, her class skills were completely different from what they were originally.
Currently, Li Shuyi's Class was called "Ghost Warrior" and the Class Skill she received was called "Unparalleled Ghost God."
[Unparalleled Ghost God: Passive. Attacking an enemy and hitting it will give you a Ghost God buff. Your Strength and Dexterity will increase by 3%. Maximum of 7 stacks.]
[Unparalleled Ghost God LV4 New Description: Activating the Unparalleled Ghost God will cause enemies with a lower Template than you to enter a state of fear. Their Attack Speed and Movement Speed will be reduced by 20% for 30 seconds.
[Unparalleled Ghost God LV4 New Description: Activating the Unparalleled Ghost God will allow you to ignore the effects of hit damage and stun. Your full-strength attack will cause the enemy to enter a state of imbalance, knockback, or flying (determined by the difference in Strength between you and the enemy) for 30 seconds.]
"Did you draw these two special effects?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
Li Shuyi said, "No, after I upgraded to a Hero Class, I directly received these two Class Skill Enhancement effects. There was no drawing process. Are these two special effects bad? "
"This kind of active special effect … Generally speaking, it's not as practical as passive special effects. Of course, your Class Skill Passive is already very, very strong. These two active special effects are the icing on the cake, "Bai Xiaowen said.
Li Shuyi's Unparalleled Ghost God passive was a true godly skill. Just the 3% increase in Dexterity per level was already comparable to the original Zephyr Swordsman passive. The increase in Dexterity itself increased Attack Speed and Critical Hit.
