After moving a bit more deeper he spotted a one horn pig with a cultivation of rank 3 awaken realm . Since nova's cultivation has increased to rank 2 awaken he can somehow handle rank 3 awaken beast, so he decided to use his old poison and run tactics. He provoked the one horn pig and started to run for a few seconds then he suddenly jumped out of the one horn pig's way. Because the one horn pig is quite close so the monster can't stop after nova suddenly jumps out of his way and the one horn pig crashes into the tree. Nova took this chance and plunged his Poison-soaked dagger into the one horn pig's body and quickly jumped back . Just like yesterday a few seconds later poison took effect then one horn pig started to foaming from the mouth and die. Nova first took the horn from the corpse then he clicked on the plus sign beside the wind swordsmanship to reach entry level.
Now thanks to the one horn pig he has enough points to learn wind swordsmanship to entry level. Nova starts to find more beast to hunt, After searching for some time he encounters a gray wolf. The gray wolf normally stays in a pack but they separate while hunting, so that is a very good chance. Gray wolf is rank 3 awaken beast but nova think's it will be fine since he can dodge a few attacks more than that will be a stretch. The most efficient way will be to use wind swordsmanship to stab the forehead . Nova tries to ambush the gray wolf but it fails, he didn't expect it to work anyway so he is not disappointed. The wolf lunged at him but he was prepared beforehand so he jumped aside but got scratched by his claws. It can't be helped after all he is one rank lower than opponent.
The flesh tore open and blood continued flowing, it is quite painful but still he didn't lose focus and thrust his sword between the gray wolf's eyebrows. The Instant sword went in the gray wolf died because of damage to the brain . He put away the wolf corpse in his storage bracelet then he quickly found a safe place to rest. After the wound stopped bleeding and had enough rest ,he decided to continue hunting the gray wolf. After moving for a few more minutes he found another gray wolf roaming alone so he decided to ambush it again. Since he learn his lesson from last mistake, he waited patiently for a good opportunity to strike. He didn't hold back and he used wind swordsmanship with his full strength. He wanted to end it with one move so the precisely strike at the moment the gray wolf wasn't paying attention to his throat.
The gray wolf died because of the cut to the throat, this time he didn't fight so desperately. Like this he continued killing gray wolves, trying to ambush them if they worked then it's fine but if not then fight desperately. After killing a few more, now he has 500 points enough to upgrade the wind swordsmanship to reach proficient level. Nova clicks on the plus sign and he can feel the memory of him practicing
wind swordsmanship countless times until he reaches a proficient level. Now his task of killing 50 awaken realm beasts is 30/50 so he has to kill 20 more beasts . Nova doesn't have to fight desperately now with increased speed he can end their lives before they can react. So he continue his hunt but this time killing gray wolf is more
Easier to kill, While fighting before he can get some wounds here or there but now he doesn't get any. Nova continues his grinding of points, now it is not difficult because before the gray wolf can attack he thrust his blade into the gray wolf's head or cut his throat. In that way he killed 20 more gray wolves and his points reached 2k, then nova received a system message he completed his task of killing awaken early stage 50 fierce beasts and received 5k points. Nova is very excited because he never saw so many points at once, he excitedly clicked on plus sign beside cultivation level. The aura starts to enter his pores to strengthen his body, and nova's cultivation reaches level 3 awaken realm. Now he achieved his initial goal of level 3 awaken realm in this case now know one will doubt him if he says that he was hiding his strength. Doing this is not considered that odd because it happened before so he plans to use this excuse to explain his abnormal growth in his cultivation.
Now he intends to invest the points on his techniques after all he is still lacking movement and breathing technique and he still have to upgrade his swordsmanship.
After thinking for a while he plans to get a movement and breathing technique and upgrade them, since his system task is complete so he didn't intend to stay any more, so he starts moving towards the city. After entering the city nova walked straight towards the shop where he sold materials last time. After entering the shop he sees the owner again, nova exchange greetings with the owner then he gets straight to the business and takes out the materials. Nova asks how much for all of these materials ?The shop owner didn't say the price immediately but he examined all the materials first before he said the price. After examining all the materials he is willing to give 300k, Nova agrees easily because that is a fair price.
Nova doesn't intend to buy anything from this shop so after he gets the bank message of money transfer he leaves. Nova takes the bus home, after arriving at home he eats some food then he opens the warrior mall to get a movement technique. Once apply the filters he started browsing the array of movement techniques, upon browsing all the techniques he chose the phantom steps and it cost 100k alliance coins as soon as he saw the price he can feel the Pang of pain in his heart but still he order the phantom steps because life is more important than money. Once ordered, it will arrive tomorrow just like the previous time, so he watched some videos on the internet to enrich his knowledge then went to sleep. Then the next day once he is done eating his breakfast he waits for a while then like last time received the package but this time it is a different guy.
Once he received a package he quickly got back into his room and just like last time once he finished watching the video he get a system message that he can learn phantom steps with 100 points. Without hesitation he clicked yes and his phantom steps reached entry level. Nova again upgraded phantom steps to the proficient realm by paying 500 points, Now the only thing left is a good breathing technique for cultivation. After searching for sometime he didn't find it, he really can't blame anyone for this. After all the requirement for breathing technique he set is quite stringent. Simply put, people look for a breathing technique that matches their own
style because they can't practice all kinds of combat techniques, because they will never have any time for other things at that rate. Nova is different because he has a system now, so he doesn't need to worry about not having enough time. Nova plans to be an all rounder or someone with no obvious weaknesses , so in that situation best will be a non-attribute breathing technique and since he will not have any attribute bonuses , so in exchange of that trait he needs something else like higher quantity, quality of aura or it can be higher efficiency of convergence, absorption of aura.
But can't find any breathing technique that satisfied his second need, so he plans to find it in the school library. Afterall without any attribute bonus he will have difficulty in the future, like for example if he uses a fire breathing technique then if he uses fire type combat technique he can get 10% or more attribute bonus depending on the breathing technique and also it will be the opposite if he uses any non-fire type combat technique . One of the benefits of world education policy given by the world government is he can choose any book of combat techniques or breathing techniques from his school library, so he can only wait for tomorrow to school to open.
