157: Chapter 157: Regular Battle Skill 157: Chapter 157: Regular Battle Skill Zhao Guang recalled the five common Battle Skills he had learned before: Cleaving, Acceleration, Stabbing, Blocking, and Heavy Strike.
These are all very ordinary Battle Skills that anyone with Combat Energy can use.
But ordinary does not an weak; on the contrary, these are the foundation of Battle Skills.
Combined with so basic combat techniques, they can unleash very powerful forces.
According to Yars, even he still uses these common Battle Skills.
He has simply trained them to beco instinctive, so he does not need to think about them, and his usual attacks incorporate these techniques.
With Yars’s strength, these techniques, although not significantly boosting his own power,
could still enhance his destructive force and reduce so of his expenditure.
For a warrior, any slight savings in energy is crucial because on the battlefield, it might be just that little less energy spent that could save one’s life.
“Let’s start with Cleaving.” Zhao Guang took out his short knife and then channeled his Combat Energy.
Because it was his first ti using it, and he was not proficient, Zhao Guang closed his eyes, followed the technique of the Battle Skill, and channeled the Combat Energy inside his body.
He ignored the part about creating a Lifebound Battle Skill and only operated the regular component.
Combat Energy burst forth from his chest, flowed to his hands through so special channels.
In an instant, Zhao Guang felt his hands begin to heat up, as if bursting with greater strength.
Zhao Guang let out a light shout, and his arm followed the movent technique as he slashed downwards from above.
A faint white light emitted from the blade, as if even the air was split by this slash.
Zhao Guang moved his arm around; it was sowhat numb, confirming his physical condition was still lacking.
“Proficiency in Battle Skills is not enough; activation takes too long, and the arm receives impact and is not adapted; more training is needed,” he thought.
Battle Skills, unlike magic, require extensive training to fully adapt to.
At this ti, Zhao Guang felt the advantage of his Light Attribute Fighting Spirit.
Because the arm that had felt numb just monts ago had already recovered, which ant he could train more tis a day than others could.
With such Combat Energy, his physical condition would rapidly improve.
He dared not compare himself with those who train themselves rigorously, but he would likely catch up to the physical condition of regular warriors of the sa level soon.
“However, this knife seems a bit inappropriate,” Zhao Guang comnted sowhat speechlessly as he looked at his weapon.
In his hand was only a short knife, but the common Weapons used by warriors in this world were Knight Swords or other large sword-type Weapons.
It seed that apart from the small knives used in daily life, he had not seen other warriors wield a knife as a weapon.
Hence, the various fighting techniques in this world were primarily based on long swords.
At least, those are what he had seen; there might be others, but he wasn’t aware of them.
“It seems I’ll have to get a long sword later on,” he said to himself, rembering that Zhang Wu had many types of long sword Weapons, which he could simply buy.
After recovering, Zhao Guang started to release the next Battle Skill, Acceleration, this ti channeling Combat Energy to his legs.
With the Combat Energy activated, Zhao Guang suddenly felt his legs beco more agile.
With a single step, he shot forward, his speed so fast that even he nearly couldn’t react in ti.
“At the very least, I’ve got to be about half faster; too bad I can’t test it precisely,” he lanted.
Zhao Guang, having stopped, felt his legs were sowhat numb, so he waited for them to recover.
While recovering, Zhao Guang reflected on the third Battle Skill, the thrust.
This Battle Skill was a combination of Acceleration and attack, fueled by Combat Energy in the limbs.
But unlike Acceleration, the thrust could only move forward in a straight line.
Because it was more brutish, the speed was faster.
Zhao Guang posed, using a stone in front of him as a target, and calculated quickly in his mind.
“Hope I don’t crash into it,” Zhao Guang swallowed, yet he wasn’t too worried.
If he really crashed, he would just quickly release Solid Wall Armor for defense.
The next mont, as the Combat Energy started working, Zhao Guang’s speed exploded instantly, and the surroundings seed to turn into thin lines.
This feeling, you only get it while riding in a car, and he didn’t know what his speed had reached.
With both arms exerting force simultaneously, two strengths combined, and with a “crack,” Zhao Guang’s dagger was completely thrust into the stone.
The next mont, Zhao Guang’s body turned pitch-black, and with a “bang,” he hit the stone.
The stone cracked, and it felt like the impact from his body exceeded the effect of using a Weapon.
“Didn’t control it well, next ti for sure,” Zhao Guang touched his head, feeling no pain at all, he had to admit his defense was really strong.
Chucking to himself, Zhao Guang started to research the next two Battle Skills, block and heavy hit.
These two Battle Skills differed from the previous ones in that they required so combat skills to be paired with for use.
Block was the only low-level Battle Skill that allowed defending with a Weapon or could utilize a shield.
It could greatly improve one’s stability and enhance the defense effect.
However, it had to be able to block the opponent’s Weapon; if it failed to block, then that block was as good as a fool standing rigid.
Then there was the heavy hit, similar to a cleave, but the power wasn’t simply downward.
Instead, after being released, it directly increased the strength of the arms and the destructive power of the Combat Energy.
No matter the direction of the attack or the technique used, it could exert a more formidable force.
But likewise, if you couldn’t reach that level, it was wasted.
Thus, these two moves definitely required so skill to use.
But then Zhao Guang suddenly realized, he was very deficient in technical skills.
The martial arts he’d learned on Earth, rged with this world’s combat techniques, could produce better results.
However, the Weapon skills he had learned couldn’t be matched with the Battle Skills.
Forcing them together only made them feel mismatched and ineffective.
“Looks like I really need to learn so of this world’s Weapon combat skills from Yars and the others,” Zhao Guang thought of those seemingly simple movents and felt speechless.
Practicing such things, it seed a bit foolish.
But it had to be said, indeed they were killing skills for the battlefield, without any unnecessary flair.
After practicing for a while, and then practicing his Combat Energy and Magic again, Zhao Guang didn’t plan to stay there longer.
As for learning, there was no rush; he’d get to it later.
After all, appearing too eager could easily raise so people’s suspicions.
From what Ocoro had told him, Zhao Guang knew many people didn’t look at him favorably, and it seed conspiracy theories perpetually lood over him.
