While the various countries' competition committees were frantically bidding on the forums, Li Huailin had already begun preparing for his match. He had already learned about what had happened on the forums. He had also seen Storm Sea's reply. However, there was no point in bickering. In any case, there were still seven days until the match began. He would wait and use the facts to speak for themselves.
What types of players from other countries were like, what skills they had, and what special equipment they had. Although the people of the Alliance were collecting these things, Li Huailin didn't have the time to look at them. It was more practical to improve his own abilities.
According to his plan, Li Huailin's first task was to reach Level 80. This was the easiest task. After all, all he needed to do was … jump off a building. Due to his familiarity with the task, Li Huailin only spent half the morning leveling. Very quickly, Li Huailin reached Level 80. Based on the current situation, there shouldn't be anyone with a higher level than Li Huailin.
Once again, Li Huailin allocated all of his Attribute Points to Strength. Now, Li Huailin's Attack Power had reached a delicate situation. While wielding Dim Light, Li Huailin's normal attacks dealt around -8,000 damage. He felt that he was just a little bit away from killing a player with a normal attack. The difference between one slash and two slashes was massive. If possible, Li Huailin hoped to kill a player with one slash. However, for some reason, he was so close.
There was nothing he could do about it. His only option was to use his equipment to boost his Attributes and increase his Strength to meet the requirements. This was why Li Huailin was looking for a set of Level 80 equipment.
Of course, before he could upgrade his equipment, Li Huailin needed to find his instructor and learn a few Skills. From Level 70 to Level 80, he should be able to learn two more Skills. Although he didn't know if they would be of any use, he still wanted to take a look.
Sword Sage Li Huailin's teleportation point was still preserved. With a flash of white light, Li Huailin was directly teleported over. As soon as the light dimmed, Li Huailin took a look at his surroundings and immediately realized that he was indoors. It seemed that Sword Saint Dashe hadn't gone to climb the mountain this time.
"Why is it you again?" Sword Saint Dashe also immediately noticed Li Huailin. It seemed like he was not surprised by Li Huailin's sudden appearance. After all, he was experienced. "What are you doing here?"
"Learn skills," Li Huailin said immediately.
"Hmm?" Sword Saint Dashe was slightly taken aback. After all, Li Huailin had only come to learn a skill a few days ago (four days ago, to be exact). Why was he back so soon? Sword Saint Dashe narrowed his eyes and sized up Li Huailin. "Oh? You've actually grown so much in just a few days? Even I have to expend some effort just to gauge your strength. I didn't expect you to be so talented. "
Even Sword Saint Dashe was a little surprised. After all, someone like Li Huailin, who had risen from Level 70 to Level 80 in just four days, was a little too amazing. Of course, this was under the premise that Li Huailin wasn't free. If Li Huailin had focused on leveling up, Sword Saint Dashe would've been scared to death.
"It's just so-so," Li Huailin said casually. "Anyway, let me learn a skill first."
Of course, Sword Saint Dashe did not reject Li Huailin's request. Very quickly, he opened the skill section. Li Huailin took a quick look. Sure enough, there were only two skills he could learn. Just like before, every five was a passive skill, and every ten was an active skill.
Combat Aura Armor (Unranked): Passive. Your combat aura has become so strong that you don't need to accumulate it to protect your body. Passively reduces the damage you receive. The amount of damage reduced is related to your current Mana. When your Mana is full, you can reduce the damage you receive by 20%. As your Mana decreases, the effect of Combat Aura Armor decreases. Level Requirement: 75
"Okay." Li Huailin nodded. This passive skill was pretty good. It definitely wasn't a buff, so the damage reduction should be added to his body. Although 20% wasn't much, it was better than nothing.
Without thinking too much, Li Huailin learned it. However, when he was leveling up, Li Huailin regretted it. This Combat Aura Armor reduced the damage he received from falling by 20%, causing him to have to fly higher before he could fall to critical health. Of course, he hadn't leveled up yet, so he didn't realize this.
Sword Dance (Level 1, 0/700): Rotate your body at a high speed. Can directly offset a spell's damage. When the damage reduction effect is triggered, the damage you deal will temporarily increase by 20% for 10 seconds. The damage increase effect can be stacked up to 5 times. Every time the stacking effect is triggered, the buff will reset. Instant Cast, Mana Consumption: 150, Cooldown Time: 8 seconds. Level Requirement: 80
"Damn!" Li Huailin was depressed when he saw this. This was originally a godly skill. Think about it, it could offset a spell's damage every 8 seconds, and it could also stack damage by 20%, up to a maximum of 100%. This was simply invincible against Battle Mages. However, the problem was that this stacking effect was a buff. Li Huailin knew that this stacking effect on him would reduce the damage he received by 20%. This was simply too f * cking ridiculous. A godly skill had unexpectedly become an ordinary skill because of his own bug.
But although it was a bit regretful, Li Huailin still learned this skill. At the very least, this thing could offset spell attacks, and he could use it at a crucial moment.
These two skills were not bad, at least they weren't skills that didn't need to be learned like last time's Sword-Drawing Technique. However, Li Huailin was still a bit dissatisfied. Right now, he needed strength the most. After learning them, Li Huailin directly asked Sword Saint Dashe, "Uncle, if you want to learn Profoundness, what level do I need?"
Li Huailin really wanted to learn Profoundness. Last time, the Sea of Profoundness was too practical. The only weakness was that the cooldown was a bit long. Apart from that, Li Huailin couldn't find anything that he was dissatisfied with, so he placed great importance on Profoundness. It was a pity that there wasn't an option to learn Profoundness like last time, which meant that his level wasn't high enough, so he asked Dashe what level he needed to learn it.
"Profoundness? Didn't you just learn one? " Sword Saint Dashe immediately said, "Don't bite off more than you can chew. Go and learn Sea of Profoundness before coming back to me."
"Eh?" Li Huailin felt a headache coming on. This wasn't good news. According to Sword Saint Dashe, could it be that the condition to learn the next profound meaning was to train the previous one to a certain level, such as Level 5 or 10, before he could learn the next profound meaning? This was ridiculous. One had to know that Li Huailin couldn't raise his Skill Proficiency at all. All his skills were still at Level 1, and most of them had negative Proficiency. It was impossible for him to raise the level of Sea of Profoundness.
This was the worst news he had heard today. If his level wasn't high enough, Li Huailin could continue training. However, Li Huailin couldn't do anything about Skill Proficiency. After giving it some thought, Li Huailin relied on his high Favorability with Sword Saint Dashe and asked again, "Uncle, I really need to improve my strength. I don't have the time to learn Sea of Profoundness right now. Can you let me learn the next Profoundness first?"
"Huh? Why do you need to improve your strength? " Sword Saint Dashe actually responded. This made Li Huailin very happy. If he were to say no mechanically, then it would be the system's rules. However, it seemed that there was still room for negotiation.
"I … I have to fight against players from other servers … How do you explain this in your language?" Li Huailin really didn't know how to explain the situation of other servers. He didn't know if Sword Saint Dashe would understand.
"You're talking about adventurers from other continents?" Sword Saint Dashe asked. He didn't know why either.
"Yes, yes." Li Huailin nodded hurriedly. It turned out that NPCs referred to people from other continents as people from other continents. "There's something like a martial arts competition. As the captain of our continent's adventurers, I'm participating in the competition. I have to compete against people from other continents."
"Hmm …" Sword Saint Dashe nodded. Due to his high Favorability, he didn't doubt Li Huailin's words. "Indeed, you're the most outstanding adventurer I've seen in our continent. It's only natural that you'll be the captain. After all, you're my disciple … However, there might be some stronger experts from other continents … We can't tarnish our continent's reputation …"
"Yes, yes, yes … Wouldn't it be embarrassing if we lost?" Li Huailin immediately said.
"With your current strength, it's not impossible for you to learn the next Profound," Sword Saint Dashe said. "It's just that you haven't fully grasped Tidal. In theory, you haven't met the requirements."
Li Huailin understood. His level was enough, but his Skill Proficiency wasn't enough. However, he really couldn't train his Skill Proficiency. "Uncle, can you help me? I really need it."
"Hmm." Sword Saint Dashe thought for a moment and nodded in the end. It was probably because Li Huailin's Favorability was quite high. So, he said, "How about this, I'll let you try and see if you have the strength. How about this? I heard that Megrim's disciple, Nowina, has been very famous recently. Since she's Megrim's disciple, her strength should be very good. You go and defeat her, then tell her my name. If you succeed, I'll agree to teach you the Profound."
