Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 72 What are your criteria for choosing a spouse?

"Bring it along?"

Qin Chuan looked at Yue Li in surprise.

"Yeah, both of us have made a breakthrough to the Official Level and have our second Contract Slot now, so we should consider contracting a second Spiritual Beast," Yue Li said with a smile.

"That's true, but I am of the Water Attribute..." Qin Chuan's expression showed a bit of difficulty.

He really liked the flame-tailed squirrel, but Water and Fire Attributes didn't exactly have much compatibility.

Fire Attribute Extraordinary Power is essentially an invisible and intangible Super-flammable Material, but with an extremely high energy density. It only needs a very thin oxygen concentration to react violently and ignite, and even after long periods of burning, its consumption is still not significant.

Exactly for this reason, although Fire Attribute power is strong, it still needs to follow corresponding science.

Burning releases a lot of light and heat. This heat quickly raises the temperature of the water, turning it into gaseous water vapor, escaping the control of the Water Attribute Transcendent.

The vaporization itself is an endothermic physical reaction, which in turn causes the reaction temperature to drop, also reducing the activity of the oxygen molecules, thus suppressing combustion.

This meant that if Qin Chuan chose the flame-tailed squirrel as his second Contracted Spiritual Beast, using both types of Attributes might result in a "1+12" effect with the Water Attribute, Ice was the only choice.

Ice is solid water, but the Ice Attribute is not limited to just ice.

The reason it is called the Ice Attribute is that, for a Transcendent without any weapons, the most common ability they demonstrate is to solidify the water vapor in the air into ice.

But its essence is the ability of the Ice Attribute's extraordinary power to lower the temperature of other things below zero and gain some control over them, where the extent of control depends on the nature of the object that has been cooled.

If the frozen object is water, it can be completely controlled; if it's an opponent's arm, total control becomes impossible.

During their first Extraordinary Practical Combat Class, when Qin Chuan and Zhu Yuwei teamed up to fight against Ji Huai, Qin Chuan's water stream was frozen into ice by Zhu Yuwei, and then the control shifted to Zhu Yuwei's hands, turning it into her method of attack. This is a common application of the Ice Attribute powers.

It was exactly because of this versatility that having both the Ice and Water Attributes could lead to many interesting combinations.

"It should be the Ice Attribute." With that thought, Qin Chuan spoke softly, "It would be best if it has some interesting skills."

To Qin Chuan, Dark Current Binding was a very interesting skill.

It was not just a simple binding and control, but also about adding water pressure in any direction to the water flow, which is described in the skill's description as "hiding powerful forces within the water."

With the title of Water Master, Qin Chuan could easily condense water into the shape of a palm, but it remained static water, and its liquid nature wouldn't change, making it unable to wield weapons or even be easily cut through with bare hands, let alone use it to grab objects.

However, under the influence of Dark Current Binding, it was entirely different. When a long knife entered the Water Hand, it was like colliding with a high-pressure water jet. The powerful water pressure blocked the knife's assault, indirectly making it "solid," with other applications following the same principle.

Because of these interesting effects, Qin Chuan was able to continually develop new methods of use, such as the Water Hand he conjured during his first bout against Ji Huai, or the spinning and slashing of water against the Rat King.

The latter was actually inspired by a drum washing machine.

If the second Spiritual Beast he was to contract also had such interesting skills, that would be fantastic.

"Your requirements aren't few." Yue Li rested her chin in her hand and looked at Qin Chuan with a sideways glance, unable to hold back a laugh, "With all these conditions, when in the world will you find a second Spiritual Beast?"

"Actually... it might not take that long." Qin Chuan laughed along, "As long as it pairs well with the Water Attribute, I can accept it. What I've mentioned are just personal hopes. What really decides if I can make a contract is the connection I feel."

"It's like relationship standards. You list a whole bunch, but maybe the person you end up with doesn't match most of them."

"Is that so?" Yue Li's smile suddenly brightened, "So what are your relationship standards?"

"I..." Qin Chuan faltered, meeting Yue Li's smiling eyes, as if a warm current surged from his heart to his cheeks, making him involuntarily turn his head away, "I haven't thought about it."

"Pfft~" Yue Li couldn't help but laugh, sticking out her tongue and not continuing the topic.
