After Anthony and Jack left, Fang Xingjian was left alone in the training room. The longsword in his hand danced about, transforming into all sorts of sword techniques.
Sword after sword, he performed all the sword techniques one after another. It was as if a hundred flowers were blooming together.
In his hands, the sword techniques seemed to have their own spirit. As he cultivated more and more sword techniques during this period of time, his sword arts had also improved greatly. Regardless of whether it was the speed at which he learned sword techniques, the usage of sword techniques in battle, or the naturalness of the changes between sword techniques, they had all improved by leaps and bounds.
However, he still felt that something was lacking in regards to the existence of perfect muscles. It was as if he was lacking something, causing his body to be unable to become perfect muscles.
The various rumors outside were becoming more and more disadvantageous to Fang Xingjian. Every day, the Knights who passed by Fang Xingjian's villa would look at the villa with gazes filled with disdain.
As the people in Class 256 completed their job transitions, and as Fang Xingjian was unable to complete his job transition, more and more people believed that Fang Xingjian had entered the academy through the back door, and that he did not have the talent to become a Prefectural Champion.
Another fifteen days passed by. Fang Xingjian had trained the basic sword techniques of the Tempest Overlord and the others to the maximum level, and had also gained a little bit of additional attributes for himself.
During this period of time, he had also cultivated a Training sword technique that specialized in raising his agility attribute. It was called the Rainstorm Sword Technique, in order to provide a few points of agility and additional attributes.
And as he trained another fifteen sword techniques to the maximum level, a few of the Nurturing sword techniques that did not repeat each other also provided him with even more potential points. Of course, this also extended the amount of time he could spend cultivating sword techniques to increase his potential to three hours a day, increasing his potential points to 8,500 points.
Therefore, Fang Xingjian's attributes were now:
Name Fang Xingjian Age 16
Occupation Warrior's Squire
Level 9
Strength: 45
Agility 56
Reaction: 46
Endurance: 38
Flexibility: 35
Nurturing Sword Techniques 31 sets
Training Sword Techniques 3 sets
Specialties Genius Swordsmanship, Elementary Survival Instinct, Internal Healing, Internal Training, Sword Specialist
Potential 8,500 points increase/day
Waves Level 1 Mistral Windgod's Waves
Mental Cultivation Method: Ice Age Meditation Art Level 1
The current Fang Xingjian was only four points away from the agility attribute to become a Windstorm Sword Hero. However, because most of his sword techniques had reached the maximum level, as well as the number of different types of Nurturing sword techniques he had not learned before, the number of sword techniques he had was decreasing.
In the remaining time, he could only rely on his Potential to temper his attributes. What was left was the growth of the profession and the Waves.
However, even though he had trained the three Divine level characters' 15 basic sword techniques to the maximum level, he still had not comprehended the specialty Perfect Muscles.
From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to become a Windstorm Sword Hero. What Fang Xingjian had done, those with mediocre talent would probably not be able to do it even after tens of years. Even a genius like Kaunitz would probably need at least twenty years before he could do it.
Spending tens of years to complete the first transition, those in the same batch as him would have long since completed the second transition or even reached the peak of the second transition. The only thing left was to see if they could strive for the Divine level.
That was why no one had tried those rare professions for so many years … Although they were powerful, ordinary people could not afford to waste so many resources and time on them.
Only someone with monstrous talent like Fang Xingjian would be able to do it within two and a half months.
However, even Fang Xingjian had yet to understand the theory behind Perfect Muscles. He could not help but wonder if he had been too confident back then and had made the wrong choice.
'Impossible.
'My aptitude is many times better than that of the other three. If they can do it, there's no reason why I can't.'
Fang Xingjian once again performed the fifteen sets of basic sword techniques. Their effects, intricacies, principles, and all sorts of other theories kept flashing through his mind. He was thinking about what was the difference between them and the definition of Perfect Muscles on Earth.
'Everyone has a little bit of Perfect Muscles in their bodies. Most of them can only be obtained through extreme training. It needs to be done in small amounts and many times, and it has to be maintained. However, it can only grow by a little. In theory, it's impossible for it to cover the entire body.
'The Tempest Overlord and the others … How on earth did they do it before they completed the first transition?'
Just as Fang Xingjian was thinking about this, Jack and Anthony knocked open the door and dashed in.
"Xingjian, it's bad. Kaunitz has defeated Robert."
They shouted loudly, but saw that Fang Xingjian seemed to be possessed, mumbling to himself as he continued to practice his sword techniques.
"Fang Xingjian, did you hear that?!" Jack shouted.
"Kaunitz's Waves has broken through to level 3. He has the unparalleled talent in cultivating Waves, and with the advantage of being a Six Armed Asura, he has defeated Robert directly.
"Now, everyone is saying that he should be this year's Prefectural Champion, that he's the one with the greatest talent amongst us."
Anthony's countenance was grim as he said, "He's already said that as long as you're willing to kowtow and apologize to him, admitting that he should be the Prefectural Champion, he'll be willing to let you off in the duel half a month later."
Seeing that Fang Xingjian was still practicing his sword techniques as if he was possessed, Jack could not help but shout out, "Did you hear that? Kaunitz's Waves have reached level 3."
"Waves?" Fang Xingjian was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly stopped.
"For the cultivation of Waves to be strong, it's best to circulate it at all times.
"The three of them are all extremely talented in the cultivation of Waves.
"Perfect Muscles requires extreme training, a small amount of times."
"All over the body?"
"At all times?"
"All three of them have extremely outstanding talent in Waves?"
Fang Xingjian's countenance changed, and he suddenly laughed out loud.
Jack and Anthony exchanged a glance. "It can't be?"
"Could it be that this guy has gone mad from being agitated?"
Fang Xingjian said, "I understand, I finally understand. "Kaunitz's talent in Waves is real, but for the other three, their talent in Waves is fake. They've used sword techniques to replace the circulation of Waves. This means that their muscles are constantly being trained twenty-four hours a day, and that's why they've developed Perfect Muscles. "Therefore, all of them have five sets of sword techniques, and all of them are sword techniques that encompass the entire body. This is because they need to replace the circulation of force in their daily activities with the sword techniques."
Jack blinked and said, "Xingjian, what are you talking about?"
They did not have the chance to ask any more questions, as they had already been chased out by Fang Xingjian. After that, Fang Xingjian began to practice his sword techniques one by one. However, it was different from the past. He was comparing every breath and every flow of blood in the Mistral Windgod's Waves, searching for sword moves that could create similar movements.
Humans could control and change the rhythm of their breathing, and could change the flow of blood through compressing their organs and muscles. Naturally, they could also make various movements to achieve similar effects. It was just like practicing sword techniques.
It was like throwing out a punch, and blood would naturally gush out crazily.
Pointing out a finger, there would be a swelling sensation on the fingertip. That was the blood condensing at the fingertip.
Fang Xingjian wanted to practice Waves through sword techniques, and then let himself circulate the Waves twenty-four hours a day while walking, sitting, or lying down.
Training sword techniques in this way was training Waves, and training Waves was training sword techniques. As long as he circulated the Waves, he would be training every single muscle at all times.
He wanted to fuse the Waves and sword techniques into one.
Fang Xingjian's current advantage was much greater than that of the Tempest Overlord and the others in the past. It was because he had learned thirty to forty sword techniques, and his talent in sword arts was frighteningly high. He could almost easily find sword moves that could achieve the rhythm of the Waves.
Just based on the standards of the Nurturing and Training sword techniques, he could already be considered a grandmaster.
Days passed by, and when there were only seven days left to the three-month deadline, Fang Xingjian finally completed all the substitutions.
