Chapter 199 - Choosing The Battle Skills
Elder Ma brought Qin Feng and allocated a small house, enough for three people to live in, to him.
He also gave two pills called Profound Spirit Pill and one Earth Soul Pill. The Profound Spirit Pill was mainly for Profound Spirit Realm martial warriors to use. This pill can not only help a Profound Spirit Realm martial warrior to increase their strength, but it can also help them increase the quality of their spirit energy. There were also some cases where because of the Profound Spirit Pill, a martial warrior's Martial Spirit became strong.
Of course, such cases were too rare to come by.
Earth Soul Pill was an extremely rare pill. It has the effect of making one's soul stronger. It can also help one breakthrough a minor stage in their cultivation. At the same time, it can attract the spirit energy from the air in large amounts for a martial warrior to cultivate.
Other than two Profound Spirit Pills, Elder Ma also gave Qin Feng 100 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones. 100 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones were equal to 10,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones. This was an extremely large amount of wealth for normal people.
These were the resources allocated to core disciples. Every core disciple can get two Profound Spirit Pill, one Earth Soul Pill, and 100 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones every month.
Elder Ma also gave Qin Feng the outfit of a core disciple. This outfit was black in color and there were also red-lining on both of the shoulders that stretched down to the end of the outfit. These red lines made the black outfit look even more beautiful.
After telling Qin Feng that he can choose three High-Grade Earth Rank Battle Skills from the Skill Pavilion, Elder Ma left.
Qin Feng entered the house, took a shower, and then changed his clothes to that of a core disciple's outfit.
The Sect Leader will send him and the other four core disciples to the Black Blade Sect two days later. Two elders of the Celestial Star Sect will lead them there.
Qin Feng directly left the house and went to the Skill Pavilion by asking someone around the location of the Skill Pavilion.
Qin Feng wanted to choose a movement type Battle Skill first. It is because his Floating Thunder Step was only a Profound Rank Battle Skill and with his current strength, it does next to no effect on him.
It is only because Ye Xiao could manipulate the power of thunder and lightning that he was able to use the Floating Thunder Step till now. Otherwise, this Battle Skill would have long lost its use.
An old man was sitting on a boulder next to the Skill Pavilion's entrance. He was the one guarding the Skill Pavilion.
Seeing Qin Feng arriving in the outfit of a Core Disciple, that old man said, "Earth Grade Battle Skills are on the Third Floor. You have two hours to choose three Battle Skills. After choosing the Battle Skills, come and report me so that I can register what Battle Skills you took from the Skill Pavilion. Also, you can take those Battle Skills only for seven days. After seven days, you have to return them to the Skill Pavilion. If late, you'll be fine at the rate of 10 Low-Grade Spirit Stones per day."
It was as if the old man already knew about Qin Feng. He immediately told him to go to the Third Floor to choose three Battle Skills. He also told him other things that were important to know before choosing a Battle Skill from the Skill Pavilion.
Qin Feng nodded his head and thanked the old man before entering the Skill Pavilion.
The moment he entered, he was left in awe to see how large this Skill Pavilion was.
From the outside, it looked just like a normal Five-floored Building, but when he entered Skill Pavilion, he was shocked to see how large this Skill pavilion truly was.
Rows after rows of shelves that contains hundreds of thousands of Battle Skills was placed on the Ground Floor. There was a paper glued on the left side wall beside the door.
Something was written on the paper.
Reading the content on the paper, Qin Feng get to know that the First Floor only had Yellow Grade and Profound Grade Battle Skills. There were also many categories such as Movement Techniques, Sword Skills, Fist Skills, Palm Skills, etc. Every kind of skill has its own specific rows. Every row had some given number.
Martial Warriors can find the type of Battle Skills they want to choose by following the specific rows of those kinds of Battle Skills. It reduced a lot of time of a Martial Warrior that could have been wasted here, searching for the type of Battle Skills they want among these hundreds of thousands of Battle Skills.
Qin Feng went to the Second Floor. There was yet another paper glued on the wall at the entrance of the Second Floor. Upon reading the content on the paper, Qin Feng understood that the Second Floor had Low Grade and Middle-Grade Earth Rank Battle Skills.
Qin Feng went to the Third Floor. The third Floor had only High-Grade Battle Skills. There were also many rows of shelves here. But the Battle Skills on the Third Floor was a lot lower in number than the Battle Skills on the Second and First Floors.
"Movement Type Battle Skills: Row Number - 03!"
Qin Feng went to row number 03 and started flipping through the Battle Skills placed there.
"Wind Steps, not suitable for me!"
"Flying Cloud Movement Skill, no it's also not suitable for me!"
"Flame Burst Darting Skill, A movement skill that uses the burst of flame. Hmm, it's suitable for me but let me see other skills first."
"Vanishing Steps! Hundred Afterimage Skill! Instantaneous Movement Skill....."
"Thunder Rush, Hmm, this skill is perfect! It also uses the power of thunder. Moreover, it's a High-Grade Earth Rank Battle Skill. Using the Thunder Step can enable me to move 100 meters of distance in an instant. Nice one!"
After flipping through many Movement Type Battle Skills, Qin Feng chose to take the Thunder Steps.
Now, it was time to choose the second and third Battle Skills.
Qin Feng went to the rows where Fist-type Battle Skills was placed. After flipping through tens of manuals, Qin Feng finally selected a Battle Skill known as Thunder Fist. It also uses the power of Thunder. Moreover, it was written in the introduction that this Thunder Fist Battle Skill was created by the founder of the Celestial Star Sect, Qin Feng!
This was the reason why Qin Feng chose the Thunder Fist.
As for the third Battle Skill, Qin Feng went to the rows where sword-type Battle Skills was placed and chose a Battle Skill named Flame Slash.
Flame Slash was also a High-Grade Earth Rank Battle Skill and it was extremely similar to Qin Feng's Thunder Slash. The only difference was that the Thunder Slash require the power of Thunder and lightning to execute while the Flame Slash require the power of Fire to execute.
Qin Feng spent one and half hours choosing these three Battle Skills. After choosing them, he came out of the Skill Pavilion and showed these three skills to the elder responsible for the Skill Pavilion.
"Thunder Rush! Thunder Fist! And Flame Slash!"
That old man frowned his brows and looked at Qin Feng strangely.
He said, "You chose Thunder and Fire-type Battle Skills. You must have an affinity with Thunder and Fire attributes!"
"Everything is fine, but let me tell you one thing. Thunder Fist is an incomplete Battle Skill. The other half of this Battle Skill was lost hundreds of thousands of years ago and since then, no one was able to practice this battle skill. You still have half an hour of time left. If you want, you can go inside and change this Battle Skill with some other Battle Skill!"
Qin Feng thought for a while before shaking his head. He replied respectfully, "Thank you elder for your advice but I think this Thunder Fist is more suitable for me. I think I can definitely practice this skill."
The old man didn't say anything anymore after hearing this. He simply nodded his head, wrote down the Battle Skills Qin Feng chose in the register placed beside him, and then gave the three Battle Skills back to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng again thanked the old man before taking his leave.
Looking at Qin Feng's disappearing back, the old man muttered, "If you can really practice the incomplete Thunder Fist, I will give you the founder's ultimate technique that no one was able to practice. Only our Celestial Star Sect's founder, who created that technique, was able to practice it. Other than him, no matter how talented a person was, everyone failed to practice."
"Both you and the founder of my Celestial Star Sect have the same name. You also chose two Thunder attributed Battle Skills created by founder Qin Feng. If you really practiced the incomplete Thunder Fist, I'll take it as if you and the founder of my Celestial Star Sect are fated and give you founder's ultimate Battle Skill."
"I hope, you'll succeed!"
