Chapter 584: Choosing A Battle Art 1

“Very well then. And how many manuals and fighting techniques do I have access to based on my cards?” Zears asked, hoping to be able to pick more than three manuals.

“How many cards do you bring, you shameless roach…” The man shot at him, as he stamped Zeras’s badge with his ink, before flinging it back to him.

“You can only pick two manuals for the bronze hall, and one more manual from the silver hall.

Mind you, this hall is being watched under the radar of an Undying Expert. If you pick more than that number, your punishment is three months in the prison of Yoita! That’s the last place you want to be right now.

Also, these cards have been stamped so you can’t use them again. You’ll be slapped to half-death if you bring them here again to exchange manuals.

And your manuals would have to be returned back after a year of usage, or you’ll be spending five months in the absolute darkness hall…” The man warned, even though his voice indicated no care at all.

“Thank you for your guidance, old wise one…” Zeras said, as the man snorted.

“Your uncles are the old wise ones. Now shoo away, let me enjoy my sleep…” The old man said, as he rested his head on the desk once more, before the sound of a large snore rang out, and Zeras couldn’t help but give one last look at the man before walking towards the bronze door to first choose his battle arts.

Unbeknownst to him, after Zeras left, the man turned his head up and looked at Zeras’s back disappearing into the large bronze door, his eyes furrowing a little. “Hmmm, how familiar!!?”

———————

“You have 30 minutes to choose a battle art, after which you will be evicted and your cards will be ineffective whether or not you managed to choose an art! Your time begins now!!!” The voice instantly rang out the instant Zeras stepped foot into the hall.

What appeared before him was a large bronze hall, with its walls layered with old ancient shelves, where thousands of sealed books were arranged.

Walking around the shelves, Zeras could see the labels on the shelves, which spoke of the types of arts in the shelves.

“Meow…” Suddenly, Fluffy jumped off his shoulder, before rapidly disappearing among the shelves.

But Zeras wasn’t that much worried about it, as he noticed that there were no snakes in the hall, and only about five young men were in the hall, with none of them having time to look at the cute cat.

“Now, what should I choose…” He mused to himself as he began looking around the shelves.

Fist arts, kick arts, movement arts, weapon arts, defense arts, cultivation manuals… they were all types of arts, and among the shelves, he first focused his attention on two shelves, planning to use 10 minutes to find the best art in them before moving.

Those two shelves were the fist arts shelves and the weapon shelves. And immediately, he picked up two and more books from both shelves. The books were sealed, and the only description on them was inscribed behind them.

{Fists Of Energy: At the peak of the art, one would be able to condense a large amount of energy within one’s fist and release it, creating a power thrice the normal power of one’s fists.}

{Grade: Middle Common}

{Spear Of Multitudes Tears: At the peak of the art, enables one to use his energy to condense a total of two energy spears, that could cause tears in the air…}

{Grade: Lower Common}

The options were endless, and the people in the hall watched Zeras’s hands moving at lightning speed, grabbing as many books as he could, and reading their pages, and then he dropped one, before picking another one, and another one.

“Tch, idiot!” they thought in their heads as they looked at Zeras.

With the way he was reading the books and putting them down, they thought he’d end up picking one that was average in the end, as he wouldn’t be able to remember where he put the really good ones he found or would read the blurb on the books too fast to determine how useful they really were.

Unfortunately, they had no idea of the young man’s intelligence, and after twenty minutes of searching, Zeras finally found two books that he found worthy of himself. They were a fist art and a weapon art.

{Nine Stars Fist: This art has a total of Nine Levels, called star levels. By condensing Astral Power and forming a Star Diagram on one’s fist, each level doubles one’s punch power.}

[Grade: Unknown Grade>>>{Lower Rare Grade Estimate}]

[Note: This art can only be practiced by those with Astral Elemental Attributes.

This art is incomplete, and higher levels can only be found in the higher Halls.

The majority of those who practice this art end up losing their arm, taking them at least three years to practice.

Those who successfully practiced this art can be counted on one hand, compared to the hundreds who have taken it!]

The reasons why Zeras took the art were due to three reasons. The art could only be used by Astral Cultivators!

The second reason was due to the description of the art. It was said to have nine levels, and each level doubles his punching power. That made him reason that, if he was able to cultivate to the peak of the art’s limit, then technically every punch of his would have its might increased by nine times!

If he was fighting with an opponent with equal cultivation, then what would happen when his punches might suddenly double by nine? The battle would be easily concluded.

And the art was of rare grade, the only rare grade art that Zeras had seen after looking at more than five hundred arts.

That was why he had made up his mind for it, even though the art is incomplete and it had so many extra difficulties.
