Chapter 27: Inheritance of Skills
Old Mu quickly adjusted his mindset and recomnded a B-grade nutrition bar to Li Chang’an. Above B-grade, there are A-grade and S-grade options. For additional nutrition, one could only opt for the hunter’s spiritual food (set al) provided by the tavern.
“What weapon have you been most accustod to using before?” Old Mu asked Li Chang’an.
Li Chang’an truthfully replied, “The tachi, followed by the single-handed sword, dual blades, and finally the long staff.”
Old Mu promptly picked up two wooden tachi and tossed one to Li Chang’an.
“Then practice the tachi, and don’t think about anything else. When facing formidable enemies, mastering one weapon is far more effective than being a jack-of-all-trades.”
“Moreover, the derivative skills for each weapon are as nurous as the stars in the sky; it’s impossible to learn them all.”
Li Chang’an showed great interest in the subsequent derivative skills and asked, “Are there many of these derivative skills?”
Old Mu gave Li Chang’an a deep look. Past experiences had taught him that not informing these curious students about these matters and their drawbacks could lead to problems in subsequent training.
“All weapons have basic and advanced techniques. After learning these, you can exchange rits at the guild for the inheritance of hunting skills.”
“Hunting skills can be divided into low, dium, and high-tier inheritances, and above these, there is the king-tier inheritance.”
“However, it’s best to create your own king-tier skill before inheriting a king-tier hunting skill. Consider this advice from soone who’s been through it.”
Li Chang’an nodded seriously. He had a virtue of never challenging others’ expertise with his own conjectures.
Seeing the newcor so sensible, Old Mu’s enthusiasm for teaching grew even stronger.
He picked up the tachi and began instructing Li Chang’an on the basic techniques of the tachi.
“The foundation of the tachi is the slash, whether it’s an upward slash, a diagonal slash, or other advanced techniques, they all derive from this.”
“As for thrusting, it’s rely the icing on the cake. If you really want to learn thrusting, you might as well switch to learning the spear.”
Old Mu ticulously explained the key points of the tachi basics to Li Chang’an, who listened attentively and his movents beca more standardized.
In no ti, he got into the groove, with his【Dexterity】talent continuously operating and exerting its effects.
The more Old Mu taught, the more astonished he beca. What’s going on with this student?
He picks it up imdiately, masters it in a while, and after a bit longer, hey, it becos his own.
This level of talent made Old Mu’s eyelids twitch violently; it was too abnormal.
So he couldn’t help but ask, “What’s with your learning speed? Are there any side effects?”
Li Chang’an didn’t mind explaining his talent, so he said, “This is my talent【Dexterity】.”
“Based on my practice, I can quickly master any skill I get my hands on, and then I gain so insights, which accumulate over ti, making learn faster.”
Old Mu and the onlooking Duan Ben had only four words in their hearts: too unfair!
And is that what you call accumulating over ti? That’s mastering the basic skills in just over ten minutes, and becoming proficient as well.
Xiao Bai said in Wen Miaohua’s heart, “Hehe, I guessed it was a ntal-type talent. Generally, such passives that enhance comprehension are mostly top-tier talents from the ntal domain.”
Wen Miaohua asked, “Not the soul domain?”
Xiao Bai: “Although the soul domain also has talents that enhance comprehension, they’re not as exaggerated as those in the ntal domain. Talents in the ntal domain are all about absolute intuition, taking one look and feeling that this is the right way to do it.”
“While talents in the soul domain are about detailed perception, seeing the big picture from a small detail. But the byword for ntal domain talents is the unreasonable ‘unfair’.”
Wen Miaohua: (￣?￣)! So that’s how it is.
Xiao Bai also thought: The upper limit for possessors of such talents is very high, but without good protective asures in the early stages, they die faster than ordinary talent holders. It’s better to strengthen the talent!
But… Xiao Bai thought of the cute little kitten Li Chang’an had contracted. This ti it’s different; there are few creatures in this world that can bypass the protection of that monster.
If necessary, when it grows up, it could even shatter hell!
Knowing Li Chang’an’s unreasonable talent, Old Mu let loose and didn’t ntion mastery anymore.
He also taught Li Chang’an the advanced techniques of the tachi.
“The advanced techniques of the tachi are the Spirit Blade Slash and Shattering Blade Slash. As for the subsequent Spirit Blade Burst and Shattering Blade Combo, wait until you’re proficient with the montum before learning them.”
Li Chang’an also learned that the realm of skills is different from the proficiency of pet skills.
The realm of skills is divided into: attaining form, entering subtlety, understanding intent, and seeing the divine.
Mastering a skill belongs to the “attaining form” realm. What Old Mu referred to as proficiency is the “entering subtlety” realm.
Transforming the skill into one’s own, with one’s own flavor, is “understanding intent.” Li Chang’an’s tachi basics are at this realm.
The final “seeing the divine” is sublimation, a miracle, breaking through the hunter’s limits. According to Old Mu, if the basic tachi skills reach the seeing the divine realm,
Their power is no less than any dium-tier hunting skill at the entering subtlety level, and it greatly benefits hunters in learning high-tier hunting skills later on.
Old Mu specifically instructed Li Chang’an to practice the tachi basics well, striving to reach the seeing the divine realm.
If he reaches the seeing the divine realm before the end of the sumr vacation, Old Mu would give Li Chang’an a set of gifts.
Li Chang’an agreed.
Then Li Chang’an bid farewell to Old Mu. At this stage, he had learned all he needed to, and the rest was just continuous practice.
Duan Ben, having witnessed incredible scenes continuously today, generously treated Li Chang’an and Wen Miaohua to a al.
It was “Braised Dragon Loin,” taken from the loin area of the Commander-level Rare Blood Dragon Species, the “Bee-Eye Wyvern.”
The dragon loin was not tough but very springy, and with the thin layer of fat, it greatly whetted the appetites of Li Chang’an and Wen Miaohua.
In the end, two large pots of braised dragon loin were completely devoured, and Duan Ben laughed heartily.
After exchanging contact numbers with Li Chang’an, Duan Ben took on a mission after the al and left.
Li Chang’an and Wen Miaohua also hurried ho. Any later, and their mothers might have started cooking red bean rice.
However, before returning, he still bought nutrition bars and calcium tablets at the guild’s logistics departnt.
Upon arriving ho, Li Chang’an opened the door to find Yao Yao lifelessly nestled in Mrs. Mu Qingqing’s arms, being freely kneaded.
As soon as she saw Li Chang’an return, Yao Yao imdiately broke free from Mrs. Mu Qingqing’s grasp, hopping and jumping into his arms.
She tearfully accused Mrs. Mu Qingqing of her tyranny.
Li Chang’an looked guilty, glaring at his irresponsible mother, Mrs. Mu Qingqing, who was unperturbed, even winking at Li Chang’an, as if daring him to do sothing about it.
It made him very weary.
So Li Chang’an said to Yao Yao, “Open your mind, don’t resist.”
He pointed at Yao Yao’s forehead, and the blood thorn array instantly unfolded, imdiately drawing Yao Yao into the pet space.
Mrs. Mu Qingqing was stunned, not quite reacting, and said, “Son, have you broken through to a level 2 beastmaster?”
Li Chang’an was still checking Yao Yao’s information, and Wen Miaohua spoke up for him, explaining many things that had happened today.
Feng Sisi’s eyes grew brighter as she listened, looking at Li Chang’an with increasing satisfaction.
Mrs. Mu Qingqing hadn’t expected to have underestimated Li Chang’an’s talent before, not realizing her son’s talent was so formidable.
We must not waste Xiao An’s talent!
Mrs. Mu Qingqing first thought of this issue. Although the instructors at the Hunter’s Guild are qualified, they are only suitable for ordinary geniuses.
For soone of Xiao An’s caliber, it’s sowhat of a waste. It seems we need to use her husband’s connections to find a renowned teacher for Xiao An.
Li Chang’an not only looked at Yao Yao’s talent but also checked out the new skills Mao Mao had acquired.
Mao Mao’s skill proficiency hadn’t changed much, but the new skill was a high-tier skill【Lava Field】.
Just by the na, one could tell it was a field skill, increasing Mao Mao’s狱炎 power by thirty percent and also imposing a slight suppression effect on opponents.
As for Yao Yao’s panel, it sowhat didn’t et the standards of an ordinary pet.
【Na: Yao Yao
Race: Twin-Leaf Rabbit
Attribute: Wood
Level: Awakening Period
Potential: Elite Low Grade
Talent Abilities: Moonlight Affinity, dicine Pounding
Low-tier Skill: Leaf Blade (Proficient Level)
Mid-tier Skill: Grass Blessing (Skilled Level)
Status: Fearful, Confused.】
Dual talents, potential that doesn’t match the Twin-Leaf Rabbit’s资质, and those two skill proficiencies also exceed ninety-nine percent of awakening period cubs.
Yao Yao is indeed the illegitimate child of that high-tier magical beast.
Seeing Yao Yao’s status, Li Chang’an imdiately knew that Yao Yao had probably accidentally co into contact with Mao Mao in a relaxed state.
But she didn’t faint, hmm, there’s progress.
Li Chang’an imdiately summoned Yao Yao out. The little one was still in a state of shock, trembling as if she had been frightened by sothing.
While comforting Yao Yao, Li Chang’an asked Mrs. Mu Qingqing, “What type of talent is dicine Pounding?”
In an instant, the lively conversation between Mrs. Mu Qingqing and Feng Sisi ca to an abrupt halt, and the entire Li household fell into a deathly silence.
