As for Soul-type equipment that was Purple Gold Grade and above, the minimum requirement for Black Grade equipment was 90 points of Martial Power or 90 points of other attributes. Beyond that, there was no way to equip it.
This was because 85 points of basic attributes was a threshold, and 90 points was a very high threshold. It was impossible to increase one's attributes by accumulating equipment.
Under such circumstances, Yang Rui's doppelganger's equipment level would not be able to increase for the time being. Fortunately, the so-called 50% bloodline power did not have a restriction on the level and level of skills. It only forcefully reduced the power of the original ultimate skill by half.
For example, Yang Rui's Scarlet Emperor Sword Technique was already at Level 3 with 100% progress. The doppelganger's skill attributes were also at this level and progress. However, the power of the skill was forcefully reduced by half. The remarks clearly stated that it was only 50% of the skill's power.
Of course, all of Yang Rui's skills had been copied by the doppelganger and given to the doppelganger in the form of bloodline power. However, the doppelganger's soul was sealed and was dark gray in color. If not, wouldn't he be able to create an unlimited number of doppelganger?
The doppelganger's strength had been accumulated to the limit in Yang Rui's hands. If he wanted to continue improving, he would need to improve the doppelganger's soul skill level.
Cao Cao's troops had only launched a probing attack in the direction of Hulao Pass. When they saw Yang Rui's doppelganger personally appear, they gave up on the idea of advancing from Hulao Pass.
In reality, Cao Cao himself knew very well that Yang Rui would definitely send a large number of troops and powerful generals to guard Hulao Pass. There was basically no chance.
Cao Cao still wanted to test the waters. Based on Yang Rui's guess, there were two possible reasons. One was to confuse Yang Rui and the other vassals' troops. This meant that Cao Cao had not given up on the possibility of advancing from Hulao Pass. It could be considered a threat.
On the other hand, according to the information gathered by the Imperial Patrol, Cao Cao's southern army and Zhang Xiu's army had both arrived at Dong Ling Pass. Neither of them was willing to take the initiative to attack Dong Ling Pass, so they temporarily set up camp near Dong Ling Pass.
In this sort of situation, Cao Cao had the energy to act in the direction of Hulao Pass. Regardless of whether it was a strategic deception or a way to show Zhang Xiu that he had another way out, in the end, he had nothing to do.
Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu were locked in a stalemate for more than two game days. Even though both sides were allies fighting for the Heirloom Seal, neither side was willing to work for the other.
In these two days, Liu Biao's troops were still the most stable group of troops. After crossing the Yi River, they split into three groups. Each group was advancing at a rate of one city per day.
Even if there were occasional delays, it was to appease the NPC Liegeman in the city or related areas. Their intentions were obvious. They wanted to take down a city and stabilize it. They wanted to control the related areas for a long time.
At this moment, the other group that was able to enter Yangzhou Yuan Shu's territory, Liu Bei, was not in a good situation.
After suffering two air raids, Liu Bei lost the opportunity to fight for Hefei County and Shuxian County. Liu Bei led his remaining troops toward the six counties. In the end, they were faced with a city full of soldiers.
Liu Bei County was a city that was relatively close to Shouchun Imperial City. It was similar to Hefei County and was considered a protected area. Hence, it was normal for there to be a large number of soldiers defending the city.
Liu Bei had also considered this possibility in advance. However, he still held on to a certain degree of fluke. He was also prepared to launch a surprise attack when the conditions were met to see if he could obtain a place to stay.
However, when Liu Bei found out that Yuan Shu's general Lei Bao was in the city and saw that Liu Bei County's defenses were in order, he decided to leave. He went around Liu Bei County and continued to advance toward the southwest.
At this moment, Liu Bei could not help but feel depressed. At the same time, he made up his mind. If he could not take down another city, he would have to change his strategy.
In comparison, there was another group that was in a similar predicament. It was Trace Dragon Soul and the other large player organizations. At this moment, Cao Cao's troops were still in Si Lizhou. Furthermore, Chen Gong and the other remnants of Lu Bu did not make a move. This greatly affected the plans of the various player organizations.
Originally, Trace Dragon Soul and the other player organizations were prepared to take advantage of the third large-scale storyline of the Three Kingdoms Region. They wanted to take advantage of the stalemate between Yang Rui and the other vassals to show off their skills. At the very least, they wanted to obtain a stable territory for the various player organizations.
After repeated considerations and discussions, Dragon Soul and the other large player organizations had decided to choose Yang Rui's side. Firstly, Trace Dragon Soul and the others understood Yang Rui's true strength. They judged that it would be difficult for the other vassals to unite and gain an advantage.
Secondly, from the point of view of the player organizations' own interests, it would be difficult for the other vassals to accept them. At the very least, if they chose Yang Rui's side, they would have a solid foundation in terms of friendship.
As for the most fundamental point, although Trace Dragon Soul and the others did not discuss it openly, most of them knew that the third large-scale storyline was perhaps one of the few opportunities for the player organizations to make a name for themselves.
From the point of view of the storyline system's goal of 'stabilizing the Three Kingdoms', the situation of the entire Three Kingdoms civilization would be set by the end of the third large-scale system storyline. If the major player organizations did not do much during this period, the situation of the major player organizations would not be better than their current situation once the various factions took control of the situation.
It was not only the large player organizations. Even the entire player community could feel the difficulty of participating in the storyline after the third large-scale storyline began.
There were not many changes to the selection of factions and the way players could participate in the storyline. However, as the guardian of the Imperial Jade Seal, Yang Rui had always placed restrictions on the players, maintaining minimal contact and tolerance. If players were to join Yang Rui's guardian of the Imperial Jade Seal, they would not be valued.
In fact, Yang Rui's territories of Green Province and Yan Province rejected the players. From the very beginning, he had implemented many systems that were not conducive to the development of the players. Currently, most of the players who joined the guardian's side were concentrated in Xu Province. It was only because Yang Rui obtained Xu Province the latest that there were many restrictions.
