Chapter 639: New Elemental Swordsmanship

A month passed by quickly, and the rapid classes and high intensity training caused them to easily forget the flow of time. Xiao Lin’s skill during that period did not change too much because the fight with Alexander had caused him to slowly understand his own shortcomings. He was too dependent on short-term explosiveness, and Alexander also had explosive power, which left Xiao Lin at a clear disadvantage in his normal state.

That was not good, as Xiao Lin’s explosive time frame was not long. Miracle was no longer enough for most battles, and Miracle’s evolution, Ruin, could not be constantly used, let alone Myth that required his lifespan as payment.

Improving his combat ability in his regular state was a problem Xiao Lin desperately needed to solve. After the fight with Alexander, Yu Mei’s words were, “Xiao Lin, don’t you think that your current state is very strange? I know you should already be Bronze rank, but do you really think you have the skills at that stage? Level and skill are two different things!”

Xiao Lin thought for a bit before realizing that, yes, he was indeed already at Bronze rank, but he had very few skills or abilities at that level. Normally, those at Bronze rank could even learn Silver-ranked skills if they had attributes that stood out, like Chen Dao did.

Xiao Lin had encountered many opponents to this date. They were either those we could completely not defeat, or those he could just handle with Ruin and his dragon’s breath sword aura. That could not become his regular mode of combat, especially facing pressure from someone like Alexander. Xiao Lin understood that it was time he properly solidified his current skill.

So, during that month, what Xiao Lin did was simple. He first spent a whole week in the library, and based on the requirements that he had decided on, he looked for every skill book in the library. Normally, basic skills would be learned through professors in class, but Xiao Lin understood that his learning speed was far above anyone else, so traditional teaching was a waste of time for him, so he decided to teach himself.

The skill books in the library were more meant for the public eye, so those that were controversial or dangerous would not be available. Of course, Xiao Lin could definitely look for those sealed and restricted skills though Bell, but he did not want to take the risk at that moment.

Speaking of Bell, during the recent period, she very rarely appeared, and Xiao Lin did not have any reason to look for her himself. Xiao Lin knew that he still owed the girl a promise to use his Heaven’s Eye and Time Rewind, so Bell not looking for him might not be a bad thing.

Xiao Lin’s clearance in the school library was quite high. Ever since he looked for the president the last time, the president had raised his reading clearance to the highest. In name, he could enter any area of the library other than the restricted area, which gave him even more choices.

Planet Norma’s skills were endless, and Xiao Lin was someone who evenly increased every attribute, so he had no weaknesses, but also had nothing that was particularly exceptional. After repeatedly mulling it over, Xiao Lin gave up on immediately learning Silver-ranked skills. The reason Chen Dao could do it was because Chen Dao’s intelligence was very high, but the other attributes were very ordinary.

In terms of swordsmanship or magic, Xiao Lin still needed to learn them, but it should not be the main focus on his growth. He remembered the fight against Alexander in detail, and the only thing that he used that could threaten Alexander in his regular state was his elemental sword aura.

Then, it was decided. Elemental swordsmanship would be the focus of his learning.

There was no shortage of books on elemental swordsmanship in the library, and thankfully, Xiao Lin’s reading clearance was high enough. He did not attend his classes, so he had enough time to look through the books in the library on the flying carpet, and quickly had some results.

More precisely, it was a compilation of elemental swordsmanship styles. There were four basic groups, which were Waterfall Swordsmanship, Flame Swordsmanship, Flowing Wind Swordsmanship, and Grand Earth Swordsmanship.

The four techniques made up the four basic elements, and there were no combination elements, so the requirements for learning them were not high. They were all Bronze rank, and only needed Basic Swordsmanship and Basic Meditation. When all four techniques were mastered, he could also learn the next step: Starburst.

Starburst was what truly attracted Xiao Lin, and was what led him to choose that swordsmanship style as his next aim.

Starburst was a swordsmanship style that had Silver-ranked explosiveness, but he did not need to specifically learn the skill. He only needed to learn the four swordsmanship techniques, and would be able to master Starburst through that.

What caused Xiao Lin some doubt was that Starburst did not seem to be the final swordsmanship style of the series because it seemed like the manual was lacking and the latter half of it was missing. Even after looking through the entire area of the library, he did not find any other parts, so he decided to set it aside first. He would learn the first half before deciding what to do.

The four techniques were not hard to learn. Fine, the ease of it was just because Xiao Lin was so exceptional. Xiao Lin was already very familiar with the unique sense of the elements, and the four techniques all needed the ability to sense the elements as a requirement, so he grasped them fairly quickly.

Xiao Lin usually practiced with the other monitors, but Yu Mei was surprised and curious when she saw him practicing Waterfall, and had gotten the student union to arrange a separate training hall just for himself.

The special treatment had obviously attracted the envy of others, but Yu Mei explained that Xiao Lin’s swordsmanship’s power was best trained away from the others. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he injured anyone else by accident.

It was obvious that Yu Mei had heard of the swordsmanship technique before, but when Xiao Lin tried to press and ask for more information, the woman deliberately acted like she knew nothing, and only told Xiao Lin that the swordsmanship style suited him.

In the training that followed, Xiao Lin could clearly feel that the swordsmanship had very high practical value. The elemental swordsmanship he had used before was merely fusing his own sword aura with the elements before shooting it out. It was basically like throwing rocks at his opponent, but after he had this technique, Xiao Lin felt like he could sharpen the rock to be as sharp as a knife before shooting it out. Comparing the two, the latter was obviously more powerful.
