Fang Yu heard from Cheng Peng that this person is quite extraordinary, having undergone a soul transformation once, and the progress is much faster than Fang Yu's.

Fang Yu was actually quite curious.

Is there anyone in this world, at the same level, who can compete with him and engage in a confrontation?

If there is indeed such a rival, Fang Yu might even feel a thrill and take the initiative to meet him.

However, now Zhang Wangyue has already advanced to the fleet level, further ahead in level and progress compared to Fang Yu.

At the fleet level, there are many factors of qualitative change, especially for someone like Zhang Wangyue, an heir to a consortium, who has access to numerous resources for transformation.

For example... a common captain who cannot obtain an Intermediate Radiant Star Stone cannot achieve the evolution of their Extraordinary Ability at level 30.

But for Zhang Wangyue, full evolution at level 30 in his Extraordinary Ability is entirely possible.

Direct qualitative change.

Combined with various other changes and upgrades, comparing him to a regular cargo ship level is almost impossible.

Fang Yu felt a bit regretful.

But it doesn't matter, when his own sea vessel rises to the fleet level, he might meet Zhang Wangyue face to face.

The all-out resource investment of the consortium, facing an exceptional value like his own, whether it measures up or not, will be clear at first impact.

At that time... hopefully Zhang Wangyue won't disappoint him...

Fang Yu thought to himself.

...

Soon, Fang Yu gathered his thoughts, not allowing external changes to distract him, and directly chose to...

Level up!

Level 25!

"Congratulations to the Lord [Fang Yu], level increased to 25, gaining 1 Lord Point."

[Lord Level: 24 (131w/40w) → 25 (91w/50w)]

"Roll, and double the Lord Points!"

Fang Yu tossed the dice, which, after a spin, quietly landed on the table.

3!

3 points, not bad.

Without saying a word, Fang Yu directly invested 1 point into his personal energy level.

Lord Ability Level: 24.8→26

Then, Fang Yu added his other Lord Point to Luo Kuan.

First, unlock this guy's advanced leadership skill.

At the moment, Luo Kuan, who was happily browsing the forums and enjoying his own drama, suddenly felt a green light coming toward him.

"What's happening?!"

Luo Kuan was stunned and then felt a warm flow merging into his body, enhancing his abilities further.

This warm flow was familiar to Luo Kuan—it was the perception after the Lord Points had been invested.

With the warm flow's integration, Luo Kuan's abilities underwent a qualitative change.

His leadership skill: [All-Around Gun Enhancement] quietly transformed.

[All-Around Gun Enhancement lv.4] → [War Aura lv.5]

Effect 1: Changed from enhancement to aura type; allied sea vessels within the aura can share the relevant skills; aura range: 2 nautical miles.

Effect 2: Shield and attack-related energy level increased by 10%.

Effect 3: Shooting accuracy and proficiency increased by 50%, with a 5% chance to trigger [Armor Break], dealing 150% extra damage to shields.

Watching Luo Kuan unlock his advanced leadership ability, Fang Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Percentage increase in shield and attack effects.

This, it might not seem much in the early stages, but later on, the difference will be apparent.

So far, on Fang Yu's sea vessel, there were already two crew members who had unlocked advanced leadership abilities.

Fang Yu's gaze gradually fell on Du Ran and Luu Yuan.

Next, it was about investing the surplus Lord Points into these two crew members.

Advanced leadership skills in marine and strength categories are hugely beneficial for the sea vessel.

However...

Fang Yu currently had 1 remaining Lord Point in his panel, and he wasn't planning to invest it in his crew for now; he decided to keep it temporarily.

After all...

Once the sea vessel underwent Intermediate Enchantment, the Lord Points investment limit increases by 5.

Fang Yu planned to save his Lord Points for the upcoming Intermediate Enchantment.

He glanced at the sea ahead.

Hmm...

They had already sailed into the Safe Sea Region, indicating that Qiyun Port wasn't far away.

With the current speed of the Salted Fish, it should reach Qiyun Port soon.

Yet...

At that moment, Fang Yu let out a soft "huh," abruptly looking towards the sea surface ahead.

At this point, all the crew members also instinctively looked at the sea ahead.

The faces of everyone showed expressions of astonishment and seriousness...
