Chapter 42 Assigning The Stat Points
I nodded and went back in. I looked around the room. Plain as it was when I left it, there was no change at all. I sat on the bed and recollected my thoughts. Over one day, way too many things happened at once, and I needed a breather.
For one thing, the whole city would stop calling me the idiot young master because I beat Liu Xin in the match up. That was a huge win. And then, for some reason, the egg that I had went inside of me, and started using my Qi to grow, I guess? Well, whatever it was, the egg was alive. I know that, because it tried communicating with me, and I was just not powerful enough to understand what it was saying.
Besides that, two people asked me to break the marriage contract. Although the girl herself was stunning, I knew that she was not meant for me. I was not planning on staying in this city for long. I did not even think that the royal capital was going to be the final stage. Maybe it would be the first big stage, but I knew that there were many other hurdles that I was going to come across.
There was also that alchemist that asked me to become my disciple. This was the only thing that I was confident about. I did not need a master. I had a cheat system that was going to help me better than any master. If I wanted to learn any technique, or learn how to refine any pill at all, the system was going to be there for me even when a master would be busy. I had no reason for a master to get stronger.
I stretched my arms.
"System Homepage." I said, quietly.

All of a sudden, a light bulb in my mind went off. I still had 25 stat points that I could assign. With that, I could actually become so much more powerful than before! With every major increase in cultivation, my stats increased only by small increments. I had to try it out.
"System, other than Strength and agility, are there any other stats that I can increase?" I asked.
"Host has to level up to avail stat points on other stats." the system said.
"So that means that if I level up enough, I can use stat points for cultivation, luck and stamina?" I asked.
The system did not respond. It stayed quiet, not even giving its go to error message. I shook my head and looked at the panel in front of me. I could give each stat 12 points each, and one of them would get one more. Or, I could make them both equal at 55, and I could become well all round. Thinking back, compared to the others in the family, and everywhere else, I was the only one without an agility skill. I was slower than everyone else. This agility stat was the only reason that I was still competing. I could not let it lag behind.
"Put 10 in strength and 15 in agility." I said.
"Adding 10 stat points to strength and 15 points to agility. Please confirm." the system said.
"Yes." I nodded.
The stats blurred, and the new numbers showed.

Seeing the stat points that I worked so hard to accumulate just vanish in an instant pained me. But I had to confirm if it helped. I stretched my arms and headed over to the training ground to try out my new found gains.
No one stopped me, so I went to one of those training dummies that were usually hogged by one of the lackeys of Liu Kun. I looked at it. It was not exactly excellent craftsmanship in the features, but it was sturdy enough to try my new stats on.
I clenched my right hand into a fist and punched forward. The moment that I hit the dummy, it caved in, and bounced right back out. I staggered back a little, but when I looked back at the dummy, I could see that I left a little mark where I had hit it.
"What did I do wrong? Isn't the dummy supposed to go back? Why did the stomach cave in? The punch is supposed to send it blasting off. Even those Qi Condensation idiots could blast it off. Why did the dummy cave in for me?" I wondered out loud as I looked at the dummy with confusion.
"Your fundamentals are deeply flawed, child. I have no idea how you even won the gathering. To think that the representative of the Liu Family is someone who does not even know how to punch. Truly ridiculous." I heard a sound behind me.
I jumped forward with fright. Immediately, a spear appeared in my hands from the spatial ring and I pointed it to the man who was behind me. How did someone sneak up on me all of a sudden? This was happening too many times. But when I saw who it was, my grip on the spear loosened a little.
"Old Tian? You again? You scared me." I heaved a sigh of relief.
