Your Talent is Mine

Chapter 48: Sword Skill Betting

"Little sister, have you been slacking off lately?" Ye Tian stroked Ye Yu's little head, asking with a doting tone.

Ye Yu answered earnestly, "I haven't been slacking off. I've been practicing hard and now have a strength of 300 jin!"

Having achieved a strength of 300 jin in just over a month was quite remarkable even among those with medium-level cultivation talents. Ye Tian knew that most of this was due to the beast blood. Without enough beast blood, Ye Yu couldn't have progressed so quickly.

"Have you run into any trouble lately?" Ye Tian asked again.

Ye Yu shook her head, "No one has bothered me, but someone did come looking for you."

"Who?" Ye Tian asked, frowning.

"I don't know them, but they were very arrogant. According to their own introduction, they seemed to be some genius from Tieya Base, named Sun Feng," Ye Yu recalled.

"Tieya Base, Sun Feng!" Ye Tian mentally noted the name.

Afterward, he placed the medicinal herbs and high-level beast blood he had brought back inside the house and then went out alone.

"Come out!" Ye Tian spoke to a corner.

Whoosh! A figure emerged from around the corner. It was a martial warrior from the Wind Wolf hunting squad.

"Greetings, Master Ye Tian!" The martial warrior greeted respectfully.

"Take me to your captain. I have some questions for him." Ye Tian mainly wanted to know about Sun Feng from Tieya Base. He didn't know Sun Feng, but Sun Feng had come looking for him, and his attitude was quite arrogant.

Soon, Ye Tian met Wind Wolf.

"Ye Tian, you're finally back!" Wind Wolf sighed in relief upon seeing Ye Tian. He had been worried that something had happened to Ye Tian since he had been gone for so long.

"Wind Wolf, I heard that after I left, a guy named Sun Feng came looking for me?" Ye Tian asked directly.

Wind Wolf frowned and nodded, "Yes, Sun Feng was originally from Tieya Base and is considered a genius there. He's far superior to the talents in Linhai Base. He has a high-level cultivation talent and has reached the mid-stage of elite martial warriors. After the people from Tieya Base integrated into Linhai Base, Sun Feng started challenging the young generation here. He has easily defeated many talents with medium-level cultivation talents and even some older elite martial warriors. He heard about you from somewhere and came to challenge you, but you weren't home, so he left."

"I see!" Ye Tian understood.

He had initially thought it was some kind of grudge, but it turned out to be a simple challenge.

"Ye Tian, be careful. Sun Feng is known for being ruthless in his challenges. Those who have been challenged by him have been seriously injured and will need several months to recover. Moreover, he has the backing of a peak-level grand martial warrior. Even those stronger than Sun Feng dare not challenge him; otherwise, they would offend him," Wind Wolf warned.

"I'll be cautious," Ye Tian said nonchalantly.

He understood Wind Wolf's concerns. People like Sun Feng were essentially 'martial second generations.' Those who could beat Sun Feng didn't dare to, and those who couldn't had to endure his arrogance.

Others might fear Sun Feng, but he didn't. Even if the peak-level grand martial warrior behind Sun Feng were to challenge him, they wouldn't be his match.

After parting ways with Wind Wolf, Ye Tian returned home.

Cultivate!!

With ample high-level beast blood, Ye Tian didn't have to worry about resources. He could feel his strength growing rapidly with each day of practice.

The rapid increase in his strength had Ye Tian utterly captivated. For him, nothing was more interesting than enhancing his own abilities. However, someone decided to disturb him.

"Ye Tian, I know you're back. Come out and fight me now!" An extremely arrogant voice echoed from outside the villa.

Annoyed, Ye Tian stopped his cultivation and walked outside. "Who are you?" he asked, his tone far from friendly, as he looked at a young man not far away.

"I'm Sun Feng, one of the four geniuses from Tieya Base. You're Ye Tian, right? I heard you also have a high-level cultivation talent. Let's see who's stronger," Sun Feng said, full of arrogance.

Ye Tian knew the nature of people like Sun Feng. If he refused the challenge, Sun Feng would not only not leave but would also become even more annoying, perhaps even resorting to excessive measures. So, he decided to accept the challenge and beat Sun Feng so badly that he wouldn't dare to provoke him again.

"A challenge is fine, but a simple one is boring. If there's a wager, I might be interested," Ye Tian said with a smile.

"A wager?" Sun Feng showed some interest. "What do you want to bet?"

"A bronze-level knife technique. Dare to bet?" Ye Tian suddenly proposed.

"Bronze-level knife technique!" Sun Feng's eyes lit up. He was naturally interested in acquiring more knife techniques.

"Fine, I agree. I'll also wager a bronze-level knife technique!" Sun Feng quickly agreed, afraid that Ye Tian might change his mind.

What Sun Feng didn't know was that after he agreed, the corners of Ye Tian's mouth lifted in a sly smile. He had a reason for wagering a bronze-level knife technique. He had seen Sun Feng's talent profile.

Human: Sun Feng

Cultivation Talent: High-level

Knife Talent: Medium-level

Sun Feng had a medium-level talent in knife techniques, which meant that a bronze-level knife technique would be very useful to him. And given Sun Feng's status, he should be able to offer a bronze-level knife technique as well.

"Since you've agreed to the bet, let's talk about our respective wagers," Sun Feng began, introducing his bronze-level knife technique first. "My bronze-level knife technique is called Qing Feng Slash. It can amplify attack power. When mastered, it can amplify attack power by six times, and even at a proficient level, it can triple the attack power. What's your bronze-level knife technique?"

Ye Tian was inwardly excited. He had been searching for such a technique for a long time but had never found one. Acquiring this technique would significantly boost his combat abilities.

"My bronze-level knife technique is called Shadow Kill. It amplifies knife speed, up to five or six times. This technique focuses on delivering a fatal blow that's hard to defend against," Ye Tian explained.

"Amplifying knife speed, that's a fast knife technique, something I don't have. I've hit the jackpot!" Sun Feng already considered Ye Tian's knife technique as his own. Extremely confident people never think they'll lose.

"When do we start?" Ye Tian asked.

"My bronze-level knife technique manual isn't with me, and fights between elite martial warriors can be quite destructive. How about we have our duel at Hui Ming Square tomorrow morning at 10?" Sun Feng suggested.

"Fine," Ye Tian agreed.
