The mutated griffin is not black at all; on the contrary, its fur is shiny white, making it very handsome and majestic.
Unlike the bewildered gaze of an ordinary griffin, its eyes were full of agility and wisdom.
"I named it after the color of its egg," Huo Ling chuckled. "Isn't Little Black cute?"
Jiang Wuyuan remained noncommittal.
"But I've been feeling a bit strange lately." Huo Ling stroked his chin, recalling his father's odd behavior. "Although my dad hides it very well, I can still sense that he's been a bit irritable lately, or rather? impatient? He seems to really want me to start school soon."
Jiang Wuyuan frowned and made a mental note of it.
Afterwards, you can use the bracelet to send a message to Uncle Huo to ask what exactly happened.
They had dinner together, and under the moonlight, they went to their respective destinations.
The entire Gongfa Pavilion is shrouded in a massive magic array, prohibiting fighting, the use of skills, and the use of spatial rings. Without paying credits, one can only see skill descriptions and skill ranks, thus preventing theft at its source.
This was Jiang Wuyuan's first time here, and the dazzling array of bookshelves before him was overwhelming.
There were no administrators on the surface, but Jiang Wuyuan still sensed a very subtle presence.
He is a powerhouse who surpasses even the Martial Emperor.
Jiang Wuyuan let out a soft breath, forcing himself to stop paying attention.
The Skill Pavilion has four floors, each level representing Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Jiang Wuyuan wasn't very interested in the lower-level skills, so he went straight to the third floor.
Earth-rank skills, hopefully they'll be what he needs.
Arriving at the first row of bookshelves, Jiang Wuyuan carefully looked at each book one by one.
He had three ideas.
First and foremost, regarding purification skills, the reasons for which I won't go into too much detail.
The second point, and one he felt he lacked after experiencing battles, was defensive skills. Although there's a saying that offense is the best defense, Jiang Wuyuan felt his luck was a bit bad, always encountering enemies whose cultivation was much higher than his own.
Therefore, it's still necessary to have better defensive skills, as the round sword and shield can't withstand too much damage.
The third one—thank goodness, Jiang Wuyuan finally remembered his spatial talent.
To be honest, if he hadn't taken a moment to look at his personal information on the bracelet a few days ago, he would have almost forgotten about this talent, mainly because he hadn't practiced this skill before.
The spatial elemental talent is very powerful, a fact that Jiang Wuyuan experienced firsthand when he was challenging the Battle Tower.
Jiang Wuyuan carefully searched the bookshelf for the skills he wanted, and soon found a high-grade Earth-rank skill whose description matched his needs, priced at 50,000 credits.
Jiang Wuyuan felt his scalp tingle the moment he saw the price.
I never imagined that credits would be so easily spent. No wonder 99% of students can't afford to live in a villa area where 1,000 credits a month are required.
If he hadn't been lucky enough to earn a lot of credits in the Battle Tower, it would probably have taken him a long time to accumulate them.
Jiang Wuyuan took a deep breath and opened the skill description.
"Holy Will of Light" is a high-level Earth-rank purification skill that also dispels all negative status effects on the user.
Jiang Wuyuan pondered for a moment, then put the introduction back.
He prefers sword-based purification skills; magic-based ones are not suitable for him.
Next, he saw a few more skills, but they were all ordinary and none of them particularly pleased Jiang Wuyuan.
"[Kid, the second skill in the third row on the bookshelf behind you.]" the sword spirit said leisurely.
Jiang Wuyuan's eyes lit up.
Sometimes he really felt that having Blade & Soul was like having a cheat code—although cheat codes often disconnected.
Jiang Wuyuan strode over and picked up the skill description that the sword spirit had mentioned.
"Peaceful Mind Sword Technique" is a mid-grade Earth-rank skill that uses swords to nourish the spirit. It is a passive skill that grants immunity to most skills that affect the spirit after learning it. The higher the proficiency, the greater the immunity.
The dark forces in the abyss, to put it bluntly, can erode the human soul, turning humans into walking corpses completely controlled by evil thoughts.
For this kind of mental interference, the Calm Mind Sword Technique is indeed very suitable.
Jiang Wuyuan couldn't help but sigh, "Old ginger is spicier."
Without much thought, Jiang Wuyuan took out his student ID card.
The credits required for a mid-grade Earth-rank skill were originally not as high as those for a high-grade Earth-rank skill, but because the Peaceful Heart Sword Technique is a passive skill, the required credits are actually much higher.
As 70,000 credits were deducted from his card, Jiang Wuyuan sighed softly.
Indeed, one should not be complacent because of sudden wealth.
With about 50,000 credits remaining, Jiang Wuyuan calculated that it would only be enough to select one more Earth-rank skill.
In that case, he probably won't have any defensive sword skills left. Although he is lacking in this area, he is clearly even more lacking in spatial skills.
Moreover, his teacher and master were both well-versed in swordsmanship, so he could easily take advantage of them.
Wait... this kind of thinking...
Jiang Wuyuan gently covered his face.
I feel like I've been corrupted by Huo Ling.
Blade & Soul watched almost the entire process of Jiang Wuyuan's change of mindset, and didn't feel offended at all; in fact, he felt somewhat gratified.
He had watched Jiang Wuyuan grow up. Jiang Wuyuan used to be almost completely social, and at one point he wouldn't even show any normal expressions.
No family, no friends.
He is withdrawn and secretly lonely.
Since meeting Huo Ling and the others, he has gradually become more cheerful. Although he still has a cold demeanor, he no longer refuses to communicate with others.
That's good.
