I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 324 – Differences in Ideas

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Glancing at the excited Chen Yingying, Chen Yiming said, “The reason for this level of improvement is firstly because of the miracle blood that improved your physique, and secondly, by fighting in the trial grounds this time, you managed to unleash the accumulated potential.”

“Yes!” Chen Yingying nodded vigorously.

She could also feel the changes in her physique brought about by the miracle blood. She had more stamina, more agility, and sharper observation skills.

After Chen Yingying turned around and continued her cultivation, Chen Yiming released his spiritual power and observed her secretly.

At this moment, the sky was gradually turning dark. Teams of adventurers walked out of the trial grounds one after another and rested near the military camp. There were about 1,000 of them.

Many fires were lit. The adventurers tacitly found a spot in the wide area each and kept a distance from each other to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on them.

Those in charge of logistics placed mutant beast meat on the fires to roast them. The adventurers sat around the fires and started to review their experiences fighting the deformed monsters during the day.

Chen Yiming scanned the area with his spiritual power and roughly found out about the adventurers' experiences during the day.

A small number of people had suddenly made obvious progress. In fact, this had already been noticed by the people in their team. The active state of their spiritual power was temporarily called an epiphany.

However, there were too few cases, and their experiences were different. Even the person involved was not sure what was going on, so they could not figure out the principle behind the special spiritual cultivation technique for the time being.

Even more adventurers had yet to obtain such an active state in their spiritual power.

However, there were accidents happening every day, causing entire teams to be wiped out. The atmosphere became a little gloomy. Some people had the intention to retreat and wait and observe the situation, while others were worried that things may change in the future and wanted to give it another shot.

In short, most of the teams were at their lowest point. They felt anxious, conflicted, doubtful, and various other negative emotions.

Three days later, Chen Yiming and Chen Yingying set off on their way back.

“Brother, I feel that I can even master the transformation of the wind attribute internal force when I go back.”

Chen Yiming glanced at his sister.

The special spiritual cultivation technique could not only produce a tempering effect on the spiritual level, but also quickly unleash one's potential.

However, this kind of improvement made it easy for one to have a misunderstanding of their abilities. Subconsciously, one would think that even after leaving the active state of one's spiritual power, one could still be the same as before.

In reality, Chen Yingying had yet to reach the level of mastering the transformation of internal force, and even if she did, she would definitely reach a bottleneck after she returned.

It was just like when one was exhausted while rock climbing. The goal was clearly right in front of them, but they could not take another step forward.

The reason was that the potential she had built up using the miracle blood, the knowledge of the internal force, and the experience she had from practicing martial arts had all been used up during this trip to the trial grounds.

Chen Yingying would definitely experience a huge difference. The only way to continue to break through was to increase her martial arts talent.

It was useless to be worried about one's talent. She had to persist in using the miracle blood to strengthen her body and fight in the trial grounds every once in a while. That way, her body and mind would improve at the same time.

Chen Yiming smiled and remained silent.

Chen Yingying was still too young and had been protected well by her entire family. She was very naive, so it was not a bad thing for her to suffer some setbacks.

The strong will needed on the path of martial arts would gradually be formed after repeated successes and failures.

The sun rose and set again.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed since Chen Yiming brought Chen Yingying back from the trial grounds.

During this half a month, the correct way of fighting in the trial grounds was gradually figured out by people during the frequent battles between humans and deformed monsters.

There was a saying among the people: “Between life and death, one can break through the limits of the human body. There are no shortcuts in the trial grounds.”

After a large number of corpses of the deformed monsters entered the various research institutes in the Daxia Kingdom, almost all the research in the country was focused on this matter and produced new findings one after another.

The discussion about the trial grounds had reached an unprecedented level. News that someone had broken through to the warrior realm in one go spread like wildfire.

At this moment, not only were the various martial arts academies discussing whether to let the teachers lead the students into the trial grounds, but even the martial arts world in middle and high schools were discussing whether to let the students enter the trial grounds for a special class on a yearly basis.

Early in the morning, a piece of news first shook Minnan province, then Jiangnan province, and then the entire Daxia Kingdom.

In the Green Mountain Sect, which was the largest sect among the civilian factions in Minnan province, the Sword Clan and the Spirit Clan had gotten into a serious fight, and a large bloodbath had broken out.

Xiao Mingshan, the sect master, was originally from the Spirit Clan. He had made a move to suppress the elder from the Sword Clan who had led the way to cause trouble, but in the end, he was foiled by a disciple instead.

After that, Xiao Mingshan wanted to suppress them along with that disciple to maintain the control of the Spirit Clan over the Green Mountain Sect. Unexpectedly, he was beaten until he vomited blood in a crushing defeat. He could not fight back at all.

That night, Xiao Mingshan suddenly died in his room, which meant that the Spirit Clan where the sect master was from suffered a serious blow. The Green Mountain Sect might enter an era where the Sword Clan controlled the position of the sect master.

The Green Mountain Sect's Spirit Clan had always emphasized on being neutral and peaceful, moving forward steadily. Their cultivation style was also the same. They preferred to focus on cultivating on the mountain and let nature take its course.

As for the Sword Clan, the sword was a weapon for killing. The style of the Sword Clan was the same. They liked to make use of battles to achieve breakthroughs and improve their cultivation, so they often went down the mountain to participate in battles.

The appearance of the trial grounds was undoubtedly more in line with the style of the Sword Clan. It represented a difference in ideals in martial arts between the two clans, and might have been the trigger for the conflict.

When the news spread, the name “Feng Wuji” became famous throughout the country in a short period of time.

The reason for Xiao Mingshan's sudden death was not what most people were concerned about.

Most people paid more attention to Feng Wuji, the disciple from the Sword Clan of the Green Mountain Sect. Before he entered the trial grounds, he had only broken through to the warrior realm less than a year ago. Now, he had actually broken through continuously in the trial grounds.

To be able to defeat Xiao Mingshan, who was at the peak of the warrior realm, he was undoubtedly a half-step away from the master realm.

There were not many people in the Daxia Kingdom who were half a step away from the master realm. Almost all of them were being nurtured as potential martial masters.

At the same time, the name “Wuji” also implied that he was brave and fierce, which matched his mentality when fighting the deformed monsters.

Perhaps these were all coincidences, but it drew countless people to ask about Feng Wuji's background, development, personality, experiences, and so on.

Sunlight shone through the window, illuminating the living room.

Chen Yingying's bedroom door was tightly shut. She did not show any signs of waking up early to practice martial arts.

Recently, her martial arts confidence had been severely damaged. The words that she had uttered on the way back from the trial grounds, were proven to be just her own fantasies the next day.

“Knock knock knock!”

Chen Yiming behaved like a stern teacher and knocked on the door to urge his sister to wake up and cultivate her martial arts.

He was able to cheat and could continuously increase his talent using the system, so he had never experienced being tied down by his talent, but he could still understand his sister's feelings.

However, even though he understood it, he also knew that it was useless to be depressed over it.

Chen Yingying had to come to terms with reality again. At the warrior realm, she had to compare herself with others in the warrior realm. She had once again returned to being mediocre among her peers.

Not long after, the door opened.

A young girl walked out. The dark circles under her eyes were obvious, and her low spirits were written all over her face.

Chen Yiming watched as Chen Yingying entered the bathroom. She washed up briefly, picked up her bow and arrows, then left the house. The entire process took about 10 minutes.

Similarly, he did not stay at home for long. He left the house almost immediately after his sister did.

In the blink of an eye, it was autumn.

On the road, withered leaves could be seen everywhere. The cleaners worked hard to clean up the streets to keep up the appearance of the city.

The sunlight felt warm on his body. It was no longer hot to the point that his scalp felt numb, and he felt comfortable all over. He had fallen in love with such weather.

This was also the best season for practicing martial arts. The weather was cool, and there was little negative interference. It was easier to stay focused, so the efficiency was naturally high.

Chen Yiming passed by a residential district and saw a notice on the wall from the corner of his eye.

There was a large amount of advertisements posted on it.

Teacher Meng is teaching a small class. Bring your child to learn the truth about the training ground in advance. Call XXX.

The Starlight Mercenary Group's swordsmanship expert, Lu Zhou, will train you step by step. He has complete knowledge of the trial grounds.Call XXX.

The class teaches the strongest body technique: recovery-type cultivation techniques. Guide your child down the right path. Call XXX.

In the trial grounds, the special corruption power of the deformed monsters was no longer a secret after more than a month. Classes teaching one how to deal with this power appeared in large numbers, and the importance of recovery-type cultivation techniques had increased greatly.

First of all, regardless of whether one could withstand the corruption, people would subconsciously think that a recovery-type cultivation technique was an excellent choice.

As a result, the value of recovery-type cultivation techniques was high. At the same time, a large number of scammers had appeared, taking advantage of some parents who were in a hurry to teach this technique to their children.

After all, even if the child did not learn it well, the scammers could just say that the child was just not talented enough. If the parents were just ordinary people, they would not be able to refute it.

By the time the scammer was exposed, he would have already packed his bags and run away.

Chen Yiming glanced at the notices before leaving.

He walked a few blocks and entered a salon.

It had been a long time since he had come to the salon for a haircut. He had been doing it himself. When he woke up this morning to wash up and looked in the mirror, he suddenly felt that he could not continue like this. Such matters should be left to the professionals.

It was working hours, and there were no other customers in the salon.

The hairdresser was a beautiful woman in her thirties. When she saw Chen Yiming enter, she asked, “Handsome, what hairstyle do you want?”

Chen Yiming scanned the hairdresser from head to toe.

The woman's long hair was tied up behind her head, and her face was pale and red. She was a mature woman.

In addition, she had a slightly plump figure. From the knees down, her stocking-wrapped calves were revealed. She was wearing open-toed sandals and had light pink nail polish on her toes.

He said calmly, “Give me a slightly more layered style.”

The beautiful woman smiled and did not seem to mind his gaze at all. She replied, “The weather is starting to turn cold. It's alright to keep your hair a little longer, right?”

“No problem. Do it your way.” Chen Yiming nodded.

Soon, he sat on a chair in the salon. The beautiful woman took out an electric razor from the drawer, planning to trim the hair first.

“It's too hard!”

After a while, the beautiful woman turned off the power switch and grumbled.

“Is it very hard?”

Chen Yiming asked as he quickly thought of a solution.

Before the beautiful woman cut his hair, he had already extracted all the life force from his hair and used his spiritual power to destroy every cell in his hair.

However, for electric scissors, they were still too tough. There did not seem to be a good way, unless the salon had special scissors.

“Handsome, you're so young. I didn't expect you to be a warrior already,” the beautiful woman asked as she pinched Chen Yiming's hair.

At this moment, she was standing right behind the chair. From the mirror, her chest seemed to be resting on his head, causing Chen Yiming to take a few more glances at her.

His gaze happened to land on the eyes of the beautiful woman. Unlike before, her face was red and she was clearly avoiding his stare.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming thought to himself, “When ordinary handsome men look at you, you don't have any reaction. When it's a warrior, you blush and avoid his gaze. You're too good at acting.”

He nodded, tacitly agreeing that he was a warrior.

The beautiful woman put a pause on cutting his hair and asked, “Handsome, are you a student of the East Lake Martial Arts Academy? Or are you a disciple of one of the martial arts sects?”

Chen Yiming was a little impatient and said perfunctorily, “I'm from a martial arts sect.”

“A martial arts sect! How powerful!” The beautiful woman's red lips parted slightly as she continued, “My daughter is in the third grade of primary school. I'm planning to consider laying a good foundation for her. Handsome…”

Chen Yiming interrupted her with a cough, indicating that she should get on with her work.

When the beautiful woman came back to her senses, she also felt that she had been too rude. However, the price for cutting a warrior's hair was naturally not the same as that of ordinary people. These people did not lack that bit of money at all.

She smiled and suggested, “Handsome, I won't be able to use the razor. I can only use the scissors to cut your hair. Your hair is hard, so the cost is about this much.”

She spread out all five fingers in front of Chen Yiming.

“No problem!”

Chen Yiming nodded. His attention was drawn to the ring on her ring finger. It was a wedding ring.

He was too lazy to ask for the exact cost. In any case, the beautiful woman did not have the guts to trick him.

Next, the beautiful woman used a pair of scissors to cut Chen Yiming's hair. From time to time, she would complain that her wrist was sore. Her tone carried a hint of resentment, perhaps trying to gain sympathy.

Of course, there was no lack of inquiries about the foundation of martial arts.

Chen Yiming didn't know much about these things. After upgrading his talent, he had been breaking through continuously and had never thought about the problem of building his foundation.

Therefore, he could only briefly explain Chen Yingying's situation.

The beautiful woman revealed a surprised expression from time to time. The combination of mutant beast meat that Chen Yiming had mentioned was too expensive, and it wasn't something she could afford.

In the end, the beautiful woman took more than two hours to cut his hair. She cut his hair for more than an hour, and used the remaining hour to style his hair.

“Handsome, are you satisfied?”

After washing his hair, the beautiful woman dried Chen Yiming's hair with a hairdryer.

Chen Yiming looked at himself in the mirror and was satisfied.

He stood up and planned to pay with his card. “5,000 yuan, right?”

The beautiful woman's face lit up and she nodded.

In reality, when she showed him five fingers, she had meant that it was five times the price. The normal cost for a man's haircut would be no more than 300 to 500 yuan. The price she had set in her head for cutting a warrior's hair was between 1500 to 3000 yuan.

As for his hair being too hard and difficult to cut, as well as her sore wrists, these could all be overcome with enough money.

The beautiful woman took the bank card from Chen Yiming and glanced at it. She realized that it was different from ordinary bank cards. It looked like a limited edition card that was specially made for specific people. The texture was different from normal.

She swiped the card and turned the machine around for Chen Yiming to enter the passcode.

Chen Yiming's hand was big, so it was inevitable that he would hold her hand along with the card reader. The woman's skin was smooth and tender, and it was clear that she had taken good care of it.

He did not bully her too much. After two seconds, he took the card reader from the woman's hand and entered the passcode before handing it back to her.

Finally, under the beautiful woman's curious gaze, he walked out of the salon.
