Kino nodded and said:
"Do you still remember what the advanced professions of the three basic professions of the Nine Swords are?"
Louis nodded and said, "Remember, there are seven advanced professions. Jade Phoenix Mage, Eternal Blade, Shadow Sun Ninja, Blood Claw Master, Nine Swords Master, Ruby Guard, and Deep Stone Sentinel."
"A complete professional system doesn't become so complete at the beginning," said Kino.
"Even the most basic warrior profession has gone through generations of sages to complete it, and only then has it become a complete system today."
Louis nodded in understanding.
The reality is that any professional system needs to develop from scratch.
Jinuo said in a deep voice, "My anger is a gathering storm. Once it erupts, the blood of my enemies will flood the land like a rainstorm."
"This is how the first generation master of the Bloodthirsty Blade, the former Protector of the Nation, Duke Yoke, interpreted this profession."
With just this one sentence, Louis could smell the blood and gore of this profession.
Kino slowly told Louis about the past and present of the Bloodthirsty Blade.
Similar to the other advanced professions of the Nine Swords, Bloodthirsty Blade was initially a further extension of the basic profession, Sword of War.
There is a reason why a profession is called the advanced profession of XX profession.
To make a simple analogy, under normal circumstances, one needs to have the basic knowledge of mathematics in elementary and middle school, and then after entering university, one can study courses such as advanced mathematics and linear algebra, so that there will not be such a high threshold.
This is the relationship between basic professions and corresponding advanced professions.
If there is no way to master the basic professional martial arts and adapt the body to the changes in the Nine Swords' blood and energy, it is almost impossible to switch to an advanced profession.
Bloodthirst Blade is an advanced class developed based on Iron Heart Flow. Its purpose is to make up for the most lacking link in the Nine Swords Class.
Long range attack.
Jinuo showed a trace of helplessness on his face: "Why does the White Tower have such a special status in the Enther Empire?"
"It's because the White Tower's mages are a part of making up for the Nine Swords' lack of long-range attack."
"Indeed, many people believe that Nine Swords professionals are essentially melee mages who cast spells by hand."
"But the difference between us and real mages is still very obvious."
"If we only consider melee professions, our White Crow Legion of Enther is undoubtedly the strongest legion on this continent."
"But when it comes to long-range strikes, our advantage is not so obvious."
"That's why the Duke of York chose to forge this path."
"Unfortunately, this professional deduction road that lasted for more than 600 years still failed in the final verification result."
Kino took a deep breath and suppressed the slight annoyance in his heart.
He said seriously:
"The deduction process of Bloodthirsty Blade is good in every aspect, whether it is the long-range attack goal we originally expected to achieve or the exclusive professional skills of this system, they are all quite good."
"But there is only one fatal flaw that cannot be remedied, and that is that it cannot provide additional value to the Nine Swords' professional core."
With that said, Louis understood why Kino felt so regretful.
It is easy to understand if we apply the setting of fairy tales.
In a certain fairy world, there is a sect called Enser.
The Enser sect has been practicing the supreme Taoist scripture called "Nine Swords Taoist Scripture" for generations.
Since the system of "Nine Swords Taoist Scripture" is too profound, in order to facilitate the study of future generations, the predecessors had to split "Nine Swords" into three simplified Taoist scriptures.
These are "Sword of Heaven's Punishment", "Sword of the Sage" and "Sword of the Military Way".
The three classics have the same origin. If you study these three introductory books all the way, one day you will reach the pinnacle and become the Nine Swords Immortal.
And according to the differences in practice among the Taoists of the nine major factions within the sect, different people will eventually take different paths in the Jindan stage.
Seven of these paths have been verified by disciples and can perfectly unleash the power of the Nine Swords Taoist Scripture.
They are——
Master Yufeng!
Eternal Blade!
Shadow Sun Ninja! Blood Claw Master! Nine Swords Master!
Ruby Guard! Deepstone Sentinel!
However, one day, a disciple thought that although the path of "Nine Swords" was profound, it lacked the ability to take someone's head from thousands of miles away.
So the sect's genius, the Duke of York, studied all the way along this path, and finally opened up a new path.
This is the Bloodthirsty Blade.
But here comes the fuck up.
Although this Bloodthirsty Blade performs very well in all aspects, there is only one thing that is very fatal.
That is the golden elixir condensed from practicing the Bloodthirsty Blade, which makes it impossible to use the spells in the "Nine Swordsmanship Scripture" well.
Compared with the other seven golden elixirs that are perfectly compatible with the Nine Swords Dao, it is ultimately heartbreaking.
…
Louis, who understood this, looked at Gino: "So, Mr. Gino, what you mean is..."
Kino snorted and said:
"Blood Blade is a profession developed based on the Sword of Military Path after all, although it is difficult for latecomers to learn this profession."
"But when the Duke of York used his talent and talent to develop this system, did he also serve as the Bloodthirsty Blade?"
"For ordinary professionals, the possibility of learning the Bloodthirsty Blade skill is zero, but this is not the case for you and me."
"I heard you're pretty good with a sling, which means you have an amazing talent for balance."
"Perhaps one day, the Bloodthirsty Blade will be in our hands, completely integrated into the Nine Swords, and become a new advanced profession."
Jino took a deep breath.
At this moment, Louis felt an amazing heat emanating from Kino.
The heat was like a python, tightly wrapped around him.
His eyes gradually became calm.
It's like a child looking up at the blue sky.
But those eyes were so deep, as if a bloody storm was gathering in them.
"Watch out, kid. This sword will be very cool."
The corners of Kino's mouth curled up slightly.
The next moment, the greatsword in his hand was instantly thrown out.
It was also at this moment.
The heat flow wrapped around Kino's body turned into substance, closely following the spinning sword, and turned into a red storm.
The fire tornado that shot up into the sky drew a graceful arc and pierced the wall of St. Louis College used to test the sword skills of students majoring in the Nine Swords.
Accompanied by a deafening explosion, Louis watched helplessly as the stone wall with magic runes lit up and let out a mournful cry under the heavy burden.
With a click.
This sword split the entire huge stone wall into two.
Before the flaming tornado that was rising into the sky dissipated, the greatsword bounced back at an even faster speed and landed steadily in Kino's hands.
"Master Jino, what is this move called?"
Jinuo could no longer hide the smile on his face: "Mo Fengliu's level 4 martial art, the Blazing Sun Sword, combined with Bloodthirsty Blade's level 2 martial art, the Thunder Throw, forms a throwing attack."
"Use the Bloodthirsty Blade's Level 4 Martial Skill Lightning Recovery to command the weapon to return to your hands."
"Want to learn?"
The next second, Louis' hand was in that of Instructor Gino:
"Teacher Jino, teach me."
Louis' eyes were already red.
Seeing this, Kino showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"You shameless Master Lao Deng, my disciple is my disciple after all!"
Kino was overjoyed.
That night, the Kinoto people brought a small note to the Sword Master Kulin.
It says:
"Master, you can only take what I give you. If I don't give you anything, it's useless even if you snatch it!"
Keno started to jump into the face and output.
Just as he was outputting, in the middle of the night, Kino, who was suffering from back pain, suddenly woke up after accompanying his wife in sage mode.
What was it that I was planning to make Louis do when I first took the Marquis of York's family martial arts?
Not long after, a heart-wrenching voice was heard from the villa where Kino was.
——Then the voice was suddenly interrupted halfway through howling.
The nightlife in the second half of the night is about to begin.
The next day, Sword Master Kulin, who had always annoyed Kino, invited Kino to the academy for a chat.
…
A week passed in a flash.
【Location: St. Louis College, Tino City】
A group of students jumped into the river in the training ground one after another.
To be precise, it was jumping onto a bamboo pole lying flat in the river.
At this time, there were bamboo poles as thick as a baby's wrist on the river.
That was a "teaching prop" that Louis had someone cut specifically for him.
Of course, being greedy, he naturally asked Kulin to reimburse the "equipment fee" and "shipping fee".
Udo Werner, who once had some dissatisfaction with Louis, was cheering himself up by the river.
The next moment, he suddenly raised his head and leaped onto a bamboo pole tied with a rope over the river.
As the bamboo pole on the water surface swayed, Youdu actually stood firmly on the bamboo pole after a few bumps.
"Ah, I did it!"
He yelled in excitement.
Suddenly, the fast-flowing water changed direction and he fell into the water again.
After a few seconds, he raised his head from the river and spat out a mouthful of water with a "wow".
A bamboo pole hit Youdu with a snap.
"Evil creature, what have you become?"
Louis said with a cold face: "What are you still standing there for? Is it worth being happy about standing on a bamboo pole for two seconds?"
Youdu said unconvincedly, "I am the first student in this class to successfully stand firm!"
——Even his old rival Gregory is still lying headfirst in the water!
But Louis' expression was calm.
Standing on the shore, he instantly threw the bamboo pole in his hand into the rushing stream.
The next moment, he took a quick step and flew into the air following the bamboo pole.
The moment the bamboo pole fell into the water, his toes also landed on the bamboo pole.
Without a rope to stabilize your position, it is almost certain that you will fall into the water if you jump onto the bamboo pole.
But he just stood leisurely on the bamboo pole.
There was no sign of any fall into the water.
He even took out a bamboo pole from his dimensional bag.
While sliding left and right, he actually stepped directly on the bamboo pole, as if he was steering a small boat, going upstream in the stream.
He even had time to use a stick to carry a student who was still struggling in the water directly to the shore.
His feet did not move throughout the whole process, as if they were stuck to the bamboo pole.
Yudu lowered his head in shame.
Louis said calmly:
"Keep practicing."
Louis called this training "Crossing the River with a Reed".
According to rumors from previous lives, when Bodhidharma was crossing the river, he did not take a boat, but instead picked up a reed pole and stepped on it to cross the river.
In reality, Louis also saw in a short video a young man who jumped directly onto a bamboo pole in the river, and then stepped on the bamboo pole and moved forward all the way.
The amazing balance made Louis dumbfounded and deeply moved.
I don't know how much time it took him to master this unique skill.
Recalling the ninjas' water-treading training in The Eye Legend, Louis got an inspiration.
Among the job abilities that the three basic professions of the Nine Swords need to master, [Balance] is ranked among the top three key abilities.
So he developed a series of training plans.
Among the balance training, [Crossing the River with a Reed] is the first.
Louis divided "Crossing the River with a Reed" into four stages.
In the first stage, in a pool dug out on the training ground, hold a bamboo stick as a balance bar and jump onto a bamboo pole tied with a rope in the pool.
——The difficulty level varies greatly with or without a balance bar. This stage is mainly to overcome the fear of falling into the water and help students quickly find the feeling of standing firmly.
The student who completed the exam the fastest so far is Youdu, who took 2 hours.
You know what, this guy has something.
As for Louis, it took him 3 minutes. The succubus's innate sense of balance combined with the greedy and curious brain simulation made him a real master in learning martial arts.
Of course, he wasn't the fastest.
The fastest one was Swordmaster Kulin, who took 1 second.
He jumped up directly and stood firm in an instant, which made Louis exclaim "Wow".
In the second stage, remove the rope of the bamboo pole in the water and stand steadily holding the balance bar.
——At this stage, without the restriction of the rope, it is extremely difficult to stand steadily even in a calm pool with a balance bar to adjust the movements.
The strange man that Louis had seen in the video in his previous life was at this level.
To achieve this level, the power of balance itself is already particularly amazing.
80% of students get stuck at this step.
Well, this time the first place is still Youdu.
I heard that this guy stayed in the training ground practicing late at night, and even the other students of the Sage's Sword couldn't sit still and came over to practice.
Then the other students in the Nine Swords Class heard this and angrily scolded their King of Rolls on the spot.
…Then a large group of people led the team over for late night training.
Louis couldn't help but sigh that these students were very cruel to him.
Although he had trained late at night like this many times in the Prince's Palace.
Youdu, it took 2 days and 6 hours to complete the second stage.
It took less than 4 hours to complete Luyi.
Sword Master Kulin is still a tough guy, 1 second.
This second is the time it takes him to fall onto the bamboo pole, not the time he needs to balance his movements.
The third stage is actually the same as the first stage, but this time, it changes from a calm pool to a turbulent stream.
——At this stage, no student except Louis could stand steadily.
Even Yudu fell into the water in 2 seconds.
As for Louis, it took 8 hours.
It took the Sword Master Kulin a rare 2 seconds to balance himself.
Louis would rather understand this as him being a little "inexperienced", after all, this was his first time playing this kind of game.
The fourth stage is the same as the second stage.
- No balancing poles allowed, no rope restrictions, and the pool was replaced with a stream.
This time, even Louis took a whole day to finally gain his footing.
It is worth mentioning that Alice tried it for a while after returning home.
After nearly two days, he was able to stand steadily.
Louis looked at her and exclaimed "Monster", to which Alice replied "If you want a fight, just say so."
This is understandable.
After all, in her eyes, Louis is the real monster.
——Even though he was cheating.
In fact, Louis was the monster in her eyes.
One more thing to mention: in the fourth stage, Sword Master Kulin almost fell into the water, and he was able to stand steadily with the help of the recoil force provided by his blood.
Now Kulin is discussing with Louis the possibility of crossing the river by stepping on reeds without relying on supernatural powers.
Louis felt a little dizzy.
He had a feeling that if he continued to lead people astray like this, if a fellow villager or even a foreigner came into this world in the future, would they scream “waaaa~Chinese-kongfu!” the first thing they did was...
Then some history textbooks.
The beginning is a few big words that make people's eyes go dark:
"I, Louis, the King of Kung Fu!"
【Flop Diary】
There is one more chapter to go, I am rushing to finish it, my condition is a little bad, so I write very slowly.
