The world around me turned bright, just like a bright carnival at night where you would dance around all night and have fun with your friends, it briefly turned into a beautiful light show as a ton of decorations popped up around me.In the haze of light, I could see new paths winding around in front of the sect that went up to the entrance, the entrance wall was no longer just a wall. It was now arched and had a large board on top of it that read in very pleasing calligraphy "Rising Sun Sect"
The paths winded around the arena with spectator stands to watch in, as well as the new arena that glowed an even brighter than everything else as the barriers around it broke and renewed themselves in a higher form of defense.
It could transport anyone out of the arena and protect them from attacks up to High-Cla.s.s Tier 1.
I looked behind me and saw the two High-Strik… I mean to say, Talent Meters! They had a winding pattern crawling up them which resembled two rising dragons competing in the sky to see who could go higher!
The Black and White intermingled with each other at the top into the maroon red gong at the top which yearned to be sounded.
The aesthetics of my sect was amazing! The light slowly died down around me, until there was only the faint glow of the defensive barrier around the combat arena.
I could happily skip along towards the Martial Hall after seeing that brilliant light show! It was already in the evening and the sun was gently setting over Radiant City by the time I got to the gate.
At the entrance to the Martial Hall, the soldier standing outside gave me a knowing nod and didn"t make the same mistake he made last time.
I immediately saw Morelia chatting away with someone at the reception counter so I waited until they left with a stack of Martial Skills.
"Sect Leader Keleman! I didn"t notice you were here, what did you want today?" She asked in the same manner as ever.
"I came around to only browse at some Martial Skills to get some more insights into the Martial Dao. If this would be alright with Ms. Morelia?" I said flatteringly.
"This is no problem Sect Leader Keleman! Go right ahead." She gave a slight nod and went back to her business, she seemed to be doing paperwork so I wouldn"t bother her.
Walking along the aisles of books that didn"t give off the scent of dust because of the superior air-circulation system reminded me of my own Treasure Pavilion. It also had the same thing, albeit better. I could even control the temperature, Hmph!
I felt a bit compet.i.tive while being inside, comparing everything to my Rising Sun Sect. I walked along and remembered what I was going to buy today; Tier 0 Martial Skills and a few Tier 1. As well as a small amount of Mage-type Martial Skills. I would also need to buy a Mage Cultivation Manual from the system.
I strode along towards my first find, I didn"t have very much knowledge of the skills in here. Only what the system has told me while I was bored.
I picked up a few of them and sat over at a desk to read through them and see if they were worth it…
{Tuned Sight, Pa.s.sive Martial Skill, Tier 0: After mastery, the user will be able to see farther, and with more definition}
{Swaying Steps, Movement Martial Skill, Tier 0: After mastery, the user will be able to sway their body with irregular flexibility in the middle of a battle. This will add to their unpredictability and train flexibility, as well as help them dodge attacks.}
{Clear Flowing Mind, Pa.s.sive Martial Skill, Tier 0: With mastery, the user"s thoughts will flow with exceptional clarity and have a boost in reaction time and become much more focused while doing any task. Will boost the user"s planning and strategic ability in battle.}
{Spiritual ManWeakening, Mage Combat Martial Skill, Tier 0: The user will use their enhanced mind to force their will upon the target. Depending on the strength of the target their mana will become sluggish and become difficult to circulate.}
{Trigram Ice bolt, Mage Combat martial Skill, Tier 0: In the shape of a triangle the Martial Skill will transform the mana into a piece of dense ice shaped into three Ice Darts. Will cut into the enemy at extreme speeds.}
Reading through these I found I had picked up quite a few mage related combat skills. It reminded me that the entrance examination is much more biased towards body refiners.
I would need to add a certain threshold in the test to where if you have a high enough mana talent you could either be immediately accepted or take your combat test after learning a couple of Martial Skills.
Although with the former option this would come with risk, if they left the sect after learning of the Martial Skills then it would become useless. How could I test the character of a mage…
I could issue a written test, but I"ll have to do that in the future. I only have one day left. Even if I made a written test, if they were truly smart they would only need to write down what they think is the best answer and not their true thoughts.
I would only need to evaluate them after they enter. If they pose to be a problem then once I am stronger I could learn a type of memory-related Martial Skill and wipe their memory of anything they"ve learned. For now though…
I would accept those with B or higher mind talent immediately, so I don"t get a repeat of the small red-haired boy.
Thinking this, I kept on reading more and more skills until I found the ones that I wanted. I only had 13 MPS Points left so I was going to choose 8 Skills and then copy another 3 Tier 1 Skills. I would leave 2 MPS Points just for an emergency.
After copying all of the Martial Skills, I had spent 8 MPS Points. Now I would have to go up to the second floor…
I put back all of the books and headed towards the staircase I had seen many times when I came into the Martial Hall, it was at the end of the hall.
It was guarded by two guards that seemed even stronger than the one outside.
Once I reached them they seemed to recognize me and allowed me through, I guess even though I retired from here after 1 day of work they still respect me hehehe.
Walking up the finely produced stairs, I came to the second floor and it seemed to be a mirrored version of the first.
I walked through and I could immediately recognize the books here were all much higher quality and made from high-quality materials so as to preserve them.
Some of these materials must be even more valuable than the skills themselves…
I walked around and I used my Mansense to feel over the covers and names of the books as I walked around. This way I could find the ones I wanted the most in the shortest amount of time.
I grabbed some good-looking ones, one for a mage, and two for a body refiner.
I started to read through them…
{Raging Mountain, Body Refiner Combat Skill, Tier 1: A small fiery storm will be conjured around the user continuously using mana that has been transformed into fire. This fire has been transformed into a heat that will obscure the vision of enemies around the user and will remain active until the user charges into an enemy. Upon contact, the user will transfer a large portion of fiery mana into the target and detonate it on their skin.}

{Lightning Dance, Movement Skill, Tier 1: With mana transformed into lightning, it will react with the nervous system and allow extreme movement. Being able to switch directions nearly instantly and will inflict a small amount of lightning mana in any attacks used while it is active.}
{Conjuring Darkness, Mage Combat Skill, Tier 1: The mage will transform their mana into a mirage, the mirage will only affect the targeted user depending on how strong their mind is. The target will only be able to see darkness and will have their senses impaired.}
Reading through them I think I have picked the right Skills. If my disciples are going to win against those fatties they will need as much combat power as they can get to pierce through that thick skin…
With the lightning dance, they can outmaneuver the fatties, with the raging mountain they will break their defense. And will the conjuring darkness they will be blinded.
These fatties won"t even know what hit them before they lay on the ground of the arena! I will teach them what it means to mess with the Most Powerful Sect that will exist in history!
