The seven battle skill steles were all free for all soldiers to study. Aside from the battle stele left behind by the Deathwar King, the rest were divided into one soldier skill, three soldier skills, and two general skills. Soldier skills were the easiest battle skills to master and were also the most widely used on the battlefield. Anyone could learn them. Soldier level battle skills required some comprehension to master. As for general skills, it wasn't so easy. If one didn't have a bit of talent, they wouldn't be able to learn them.
No matter what, these six battle skills were something to look forward to. Some people practiced two or three battle skills at the same time. There were even people who practiced six battle skills at the same time. However, only one person managed to comprehend the battle skill of the Deathwar King. The others all returned empty-handed. There were even people who were seriously injured after trying to comprehend the battle skill of the Deathwar King. There were even people who went crazy. As more and more people failed, the battle skill stele left behind by the Deathwar King became neglected.
This was the truth that Yang Wu learned from a soldier friend who had just passed by.
The soldier said to Yang Wu, "I can tell that you guys are new. Just go to the battle steles and comprehend the battle skills. Don't even think about comprehending the battle skill of the Deathwar King."
After the soldier finished speaking, he squeezed into the crowd and chose the battle skill that he wanted to comprehend.
"The battle stele left behind by the Deathwar King, I'm coming. Your battle skill must be left behind for me!" Xu Xiaoqiang exclaimed and rushed towards the lone battle skill stele.
Yang Wu wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
"Big brother, let's go to the other battle skill steles." Shou Hou said to Yang Wu.
Yang Wu nodded and followed Shou Hou to the battle skill stele.
The first battle skill stele was inscribed with the soldier skill "Soldier Fist". This "Soldier Fist" was the most practical battle skill. No matter if it was an ordinary soldier or a warrior on the battlefield, they could all practice it and use the simplest and most effective fist techniques to kill the enemy.
The second battle skill tablet was inscribed with the inferior warrior's skill "One-inch Punch". This was a close combat killing fist. The punches were focused on speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness. The punches were aimed at the vital points of the human body. It could be said that "One-inch punch, one life."
The third Battle Skill Tablet was inscribed with the Intermediate Warrior Skill [Mountain Shattering Palm]. This palm technique had the power to shatter mountains and split rocks. The hardness of the palms was extremely high. It wasn't something that an average person could practice. However, once it was mastered, it wouldn't be any worse than an Advanced Warrior Skill.
The fourth Battle Skill Tablet was inscribed with the Superior Warrior Skill "Twelve Swords of Wind Chasing". This was a fast sword technique that could evolve into a total of twelve changes. The sword was like the wind, and the enemy was killed as easily as cutting grass.
The fifth Battle Skill Tablet was inscribed with the Inferior General Skill, Chaotic Horse Galloping Attack Saber. This was a saber technique that was extremely lethal on the battlefield. Every saber move was wide open, and in a chaotic battle, it was able to unleash the strongest killing power.
The sixth Battle Skill Tablet was inscribed with the Inferior General Skill "Blazing Cross Spear." This was a powerful Battle Skill that could unleash fire Xuan Energy. Every move of the spear contained a cross-shaped killing intent. Once someone was stabbed, it would be difficult for the wound to heal, and they would bleed to death.
Among these six Battle Skills, the easiest to understand was the Soldier Fist. However, the two Battle Skills that most people wanted to learn were still the two Battle Skills. Everyone knew that the higher the level of the Battle Skill, the more power it could unleash. Unfortunately, only a few people with outstanding talent were able to obtain the Battle Skills.
After all, apart from "Soldier's Fist", there was only one chance to comprehend the other five battle skills. Once the battle skill appeared, there was no way to resonate with the battle skill, and there was no way to obtain the incantation from the battle skill tablet. Then, it was destined that there was no way to practice the battle skill.
This method was left behind by the previous War King. The purpose was to find better seedlings for the army.
There was a rule in the army that whoever could learn the most Battle Skills would be rewarded with merits. Whoever could unleash the most power of the Battle Skill would have the opportunity to be promoted in the army.
Because of this, when there were no major wars, the army would hold a "Challenge Competition." Whoever won more Battle Skills and was stronger in the Challenge Competition would be rewarded with merits and could be directly appointed to a military post.
In other words, the Challenge Competition was the fastest way to increase one's fame and position in the army.
All of this was closely related to one's strength and the strength of the Battle Skills one comprehended.
Because there were many people queuing up to learn the Battle Skills, Yang Wu and Shou Hou had no choice but to go to the Soldier Fist Tablet to have a look. They wanted to understand the Soldier Fist Tablet.
"Big Brother, why are you going to look at the Soldier Fist Tablet?" Shou Hou asked, puzzled.
He knew that Yang Wu had Soldier Level Battle Skills, so he naturally didn't pay much attention to the Soldier Fist Tablet.
"I've heard people say that no matter what kind of combat skill it is, it has its own unique side. If we understand one more combat skill, we can remember the advantages and disadvantages of these combat skills in our hearts. In the future, we can integrate the advantages and disadvantages of these combat skills and create our own unique combat skills!" Yang Wu recalled the words of their Yang family's old instructor, which he had always engraved in his heart.
That old instructor could be considered as half of his guide in Martial Arts. He was a veteran who had been on the battlefield with his father.
Shou Hou scratched the back of his head and said, "Big Brother, you're right. I thought the higher the level of the Battle Skill, the more powerful it is."
"You're right, but there's no harm in having more Battle Skills. Let's take a look," Yang Wu replied.
They came in front of the Battle Skill Tablet and looked at the inscriptions carved on the tablet. Then they looked at the human movements carved on the tablet. It was indeed simple and easy to understand.
This "Soldier Fist" mainly consisted of simple Horse Stance, Straight Punch, Forward Punch, Hook Punch, and Whip Punch. There weren't too many fancy moves, and there weren't too many details.
It was no wonder that many soldiers were extremely disdainful after seeing it. They all felt that it didn't matter if they didn't learn the Soldier Fist. It was no different from their usual casual punches.
Yang Wu and Shou Hou both felt this way. They felt that the Soldier Fist was too unseemly.
However, just as Yang Wu was about to leave, Shou Hou's eyes turned red. He then whispered, "Big Brother, that … that Soldier Fist's human figure seems to be moving."
"I don't think so," Yang Wu replied after a serious look.
"It's really moving. This … this Soldier Fist is so powerful!" Shou Hou said as he grabbed Yang Wu's arm tightly.
Yang Wu thought Shou Hou's eyes were playing tricks on him, but then Little Hei, who was lying on Yang Wu's shoulder, suddenly burst out two mysterious lights that entered Yang Wu's eyes. Yang Wu didn't feel anything strange, but his eyesight suddenly increased. He really did see the human figure on the Battle Skill Tablet move.
"It really seems to be moving," Yang Wu replied.
On the Battle Skill Stele, the human figure was in a horse stance, throwing out straight punches, straight punches, uppercuts … Every punch and every style had an inexplicable feeling of simplicity. It was as if a casual punch could reach the strongest killing power, able to break through the myriad of changes in a single punch.
Yang Wu and Shou Hou were stunned. The people coming and going next to them didn't have much to do with them.
They faintly perceived a mysterious feeling. It was a kind of fist technique that transcended the ordinary realm.
After they received the movements of these human figures in the Holy Court, they woke up. When they looked at the human figure again, there was no reaction.
"Big Brother, it seems that this' Soldier Fist 'is something else!" Shou Hou sighed softly.
"Well, don't tell anyone about this. Don't cause any trouble." Yang Wu nodded lightly.
"I know," Shou Hou replied.
At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Look, there's a kid over there who wants to comprehend the battle skill left by the Death War King. It seems that something is going to happen."
"In the past ten years, only Death Rose has truly comprehended the battle skill of the Death War King. That kid is delusional."
"Look, the Battle Skill Tablet seems to be releasing the aura of death. It's so scary."
"That kid can't take it anymore. No one can withstand this kind of aura of death."
…
The person sitting before the Combat Technique Stele was none other than Xu Xiao Qiang. At this moment, he was already sweating profusely. It was as if he had entered a terrifying battlefield and was facing the assault of a magnificent army. Meanwhile, he appeared extremely insignificant amidst the numerous warriors and champions, and it was possible that he could be killed by a single slash at any moment.
He gritted his teeth and persevered. He kept fighting crazily, but the opponents were getting stronger and stronger. It made him feel a sense of despair. He was going to die here.
"How can I lose to that Shou Hou? Kill him!" Xu Xiaoqiang thought of the situation when Shou Hou got the broken staff and roared unwillingly. He didn't care that he was already covered in blood and forced out a unique death energy.
When this energy was released, his whole body was inexplicably shaken. Blood spurted from his mouth and his body fell heavily seven or eight meters away.
"Sure enough, he failed. He really overestimated himself!" Someone sneered.
"How can it be so easy to obtain the Battle Skill of the King of Death? Only when you reach the top General Realm can you try to withstand that will of death," another person said.
In their eyes, Xu Xiaoqiang's failure was already set in stone.
But in the next moment, an inexplicable aura suddenly rose from Xu Xiaoqiang's body. He bounced up from the ground, pulled out the huge saber on his back, and slashed out a saber light that contained traces of the will of death.
Wherever the saber light passed, not only did the ground crack, but even the weeds withered and the gravel decayed. A 10-meter-long crack appeared on the ground, which looked extremely terrifying.
Fortunately, there was no one nearby. Otherwise, this saber strike would definitely cause casualties.
If this saber strike was made by a martial artist in the General Realm, no one would be surprised. However, it was made by a high-level warrior, which made it particularly terrifying.
It should be known that high-level warriors could only release 10 feet of Celestial Qi at most. Only top-level warriors could release more than 10 feet of Celestial Qi. This saber strike that reached 10 feet was really terrifying.
Everyone was frightened by this saber strike. At the same time, they also realized something, and their eyes were full of jealousy and envy.
Someone had obtained the Battle Skill of the King of Death.
"Haha, I, Xu Xiaoqiang, will be the next Battle King of Death!" Xu Xiaoqiang ignored the injuries on his body and couldn't help but laugh.
"This guy is so lucky!" Shou Hou couldn't help but exclaim softly.
At this moment, an officer in thick and heavy armor walked toward Xu Xiaoqiang and said faintly, "Young man, do you want to join our Tiger Warrior Battalion?"
