In the evening, Lin Yao could already slash the ice birds flying in the air with his vital energy outburst. Yan Yan, who was on the other side, was also quite satisfied. The oppression of the martial artist made her need to concentrate. In general, both of them had improved.
Phew …
It was getting late, and the school bell rang. Lin Yao stopped what he was doing and said, "It's time. I have to go home."
"Okay."
After nodding casually, the two of them went their separate ways.
To Lin Yao's surprise, he didn't encounter any trouble on his way home. This made him feel a little regretful that he couldn't use the Clear Mirror Sword-Drawing Technique.
Being defeated by Yan Yan did not mean that Lin Yao was weak, but that Yan Yan was very strong. She was a genius who stood at the top of the No. 4 High School in the city. Although Lin Yao had won first place in his class, there was still the top student in the cohort, and the top student in the cohort only qualified to enter the top class. In the top class, Yan Yan was also the strongest. Therefore, it was normal for Lin Yao to lose to her. However, not all of her pursuers were geniuses, and they might not necessarily defeat Lin Yao.
He was not afraid of geniuses, either. The one who made the first move in a private fight would go to prison even if he won.
In this era, there was also a political review, which was quite strict. If one bullied the weak for no reason, one would not be able to enter many universities and companies. Even the application for techniques would be restricted.
'I was wrong. In a chaotic era where martial artists are in power, people will mindlessly attack others. In a stable society, attacking indiscriminately is akin to making a joke of one's future. '
Shaking his head, Lin Yao turned a corner and went directly to the Abnormal Ability Department, where his second combat skill book had already been delivered.
'Deafening Thunder Roar … If you learn this, you won't be human anymore. '
There were no accidents during the handover process. The powerhouse guarding the Heavenly Mirror only knew that Lin Yao had applied for another combat skill but did not know the details. Naturally, he did not remind Lin Yao.
As the reflection of the mirror appeared, all the information about the Deafening Thunder Roar was reflected in Lin Yao's mind.
'The roar of thunder has the ability to shock the soul … Di Qiang, this duel is going to be interesting. If you close your eyes and use all your hearing when I draw the sword, you will be surprised. '
The practice of the Deafening Thunder Roar required thunder vital energy seeds, which Lin Yao did not have. Therefore, he could not practice it. Besides, the Leaf of Heaven Punishment that he had applied for would only arrive tomorrow. Lin Yao, who felt that he had nothing to do, went to the orphanage again.
The children in the orphanage were already on the right track of learning. Lin Yao was by their side, either helping to answer their doubts or bringing them things to reward them. He was not busy.
While the children were learning and playing, Lin Yao could also take time to practice martial arts. Of course, he was practicing the Sword-Drawing Technique.
In the end, Lin Yao also developed a new way to play the game. He would let the children throw balls at him, and he would draw a circle to dodge or slash the balls that were thrown at him.
"Three people in a group. As long as you hit, you'll get a reward."
"Okay, big brother."
…
He had been practicing with his best friend, Zhang Heng, Yan Yan, and a group of children in the orphanage. Lin Yao had been practicing the Sword-Drawing Technique the whole day, and his hard training did not disappoint him.
[First move of the Clear Mirror Sword-Drawing Technique, Clear Mirror Sword-Drawing Technique (Gold) (Proficiency 23%)]
In one day, Lin Yao had increased his proficiency by 13%. After a long time, Lin Yao felt that it was just around the corner for him to reach real success. When that time came, he would be able to fight to the death with others even without flashing. If he comprehended the profound meaning, the Sword-Drawing Technique would become Lin Yao's strongest offensive ability.
'Martial artists need opportunities to succeed, but they also need to work hard.'
Lin Yao returned home, feeling exhausted. He washed up and went to bed. The next day was a continuation of the day.
Lin Yao did not rest for the whole day while cultivating and exercising.
In the evening, after school, Lin Yao was deep in thought as he walked on the road.
'The all-cohort selection will be held the day after tomorrow. Fortunately, I will be able to obtain the Leaf of Heaven Punishment today.
'In addition to the Leaf of Heaven Punishment, my Tree of Light is also about to advance.'
With this thought in mind, Lin Yao looked at the progress bar of the Tree of Light.
[Sapling of the Tree of Light (900/1,000)]
'Tomorrow morning, the sapling of the Tree of Light will turn into a small sapling. I wonder what kind of ability it will bring me.'
With great anticipation, Lin Yao went to the Abnormal Ability Department. After all, this was a gold item, so it was impossible to send it directly to Lin Yao's home.
To Lin Yao's surprise, the person guarding this precious resource was the middle-aged man from the Techniques Pavilion.
After handing the box to Lin Yao, the man left. Lin Yao held the box in his hand and sighed.
'Leaf of Heaven Punishment, it's up to you to get the first place or the last place in this trial assessment.'
Lin Yao, who was feeling excited, did not return home. Instead, he found a remote place, opened the box, and took out the meticulously maintained leaf inside.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Yao transferred the green energy that had accumulated in his mind to the leaf through his arm, activating the characteristics of the Leaf of Heaven Punishment. After the leaf was completely activated, all the essence and genes contained in the leaf were absorbed by Lin Yao.
Lin Yao closed his eyes and looked inward. He discovered that in his mind, the essence of the Leaf of Heaven Punishment had been integrated into the second cartoon sapling, and the green energy had turned into a fusion agent to speed up the fusion process.
The fusion was very fast. After a few breaths, a sapling with purple stripes opposite the pure white Tree of Light appeared in Lin Yao's mind.
An updated system interface appeared along with the appearance of the sapling.
[Ding! The host has consumed 100 grams of energy to plant the Tree of Heaven Punishment.]
Lin Yao ignored the system notification. Soon, a new talent appeared in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations. You have planted the sapling of the Tree of Heaven Punishment and obtained the Malice Detection ability.]
[Malice Detection LV1: The Tree of Heaven Punishment is transformed by the heavenly tribulation. It is a rule that punishes the enemy's villains. The first point of punishing the enemy is to distinguish between good and evil and between friend and foe. Therefore, the Tree of Heaven Punishment has the ability to detect malice. You will be able to detect all those who harbor malice toward you after they are within a certain distance from you.]
"Uh …"
Upon seeing this ability, Lin Yao did not know what to say. He wanted to obtain thunder abilities so that he could unlock the gene lock with the country's technology. The Malice Detection ability would not work at all.
Of course, after seeing the example of sunlight absorption, Lin Yao would not foolishly think that this ability was very weak.
In fact, Lin Yao felt that this skill was not bad at all.
It was easy to dodge a spear in the open, but it was difficult to guard against a stab in the dark. Many heroes who had died in secret plots had taught Lin Yao that the human heart was unpredictable, and it was difficult to distinguish between good and evil.
The Malice Detection ability relieved Lin Yao of this worry. In the future, he would be able to detect the malice in the hearts of people who approached him with strange moods. This ability was very useful.
However, the thunder ability was also very useful.
Fortunately, he did not have to worry about it.
\ 'I accumulated 4,300 points of green energy last week. Apart from the integrated 100 points, there are still 4,200 points left. This is enough for the Tree of Heaven Punishment to upgrade.\'
Ever since he had found out that he could obtain energy points from the outside world, Lin Yao had accumulated green energy points in preparation for future breakthroughs.
However, without powerful strength, Lin Yao would not be able to obtain the capital to upgrade the sapling to its peak. Therefore, even though Lin Yao was distressed, he still extracted a large number of energy points and integrated them into the sapling of the Tree of Heaven Punishment.
The green energy points were better than extracting crystals in that the quality of the green energy extracted from humans was very high. After being injected, the Tree of Heaven Punishment would absorb the green energy points directly.
After receiving the energy, the sapling of the Tree of Heaven Punishment grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. Of course, the green energy ball above the sapling was also decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
4,200 g, 4,000 g, 3,600 g, 3,000 g, 2,000 g … 1,200 g.
When there were only 1,200 g left, the sapling of the Tree of Heaven Punishment grew to its limit. A purple light cocoon wrapped the sapling, and it began to advance.
