Chapter 923: Chapter 604: Taking the Fight to 7th-Tier Magical Beasts

"To put it directly, I want to ask if you can teach me some Summoner skills."

"Of course, I won’t treat you poorly."

She Nan decided to be straightforward.

"Hmm?"

Li Pu raised an eyebrow.

Is today a special day? Gravity Field sale? A two-for-one deal?

"Earlier in the arena, I saw you have a Summoner skill that can harden the body, right..."

However, unexpectedly, She Nan wanted to learn something other than Gravity Field.

"This..."

Li Pu was stunned.

Compared to Gravity Field, Hardening isn’t exactly an exclusive Summoner skill. If someone really wanted to learn it, it’s not extremely difficult within the federation.

But considering She Nan’s non-human identity, seeking education in the federation might be a bit challenging.

Turning to him for help was undoubtedly a wise choice.

"Li Pu my brother, to be frank."

Thinking the other was hesitating, She Nan gritted his teeth and said, "When I was a bit younger, I was solely focused on pursuing martial arts."

"However, during one practice session, I accidentally injured that part."

"Initially, I didn’t think much of it, but as I get older, it seems I’m a bit powerless at times..."

Listening to him recount, Li Pu finally understood the uniqueness of the Snake Tribe.

Every year in She Nan’s tribe, they hold internal PK competitions.

They determine one melodist who excels at melody and one strongest rooter.

Though everyone acknowledges the melodist and rooter carry equal honor each year, the rooter is more secretly favored in practice.

As an outstanding figure among the younger generation, She Nan had once won the title of melodist several times.

But he never participated in the rooter selection, and recent years had seen many tribe members gossiping behind his back.

"I swear it’s true. If you don’t believe me, I can show you."

"No, no, no, thank you."

Li Pu hurriedly waved his hand to refuse after hearing the last sentence.

He wasn’t unable to teach Hardening, but what could the other offer him?

Crystal Coins?

He wasn’t exactly in need of those at the moment.

Materials?

That sounded somewhat tempting.

Related items?

If he had any, that would be the best.

"Oh, right."

It was then that he suddenly recalled how She Nan had once struck down his lightning and waves with bare hands in the arena.

That move was intriguing; he wondered if he could learn it as a non-human trick.

"You mean Unloading Hand?"

Upon hearing Li Pu’s explanation, She Nan understood.

"But you’re a human Summoner. Non-human techniques might be hard to learn, you know."

He kindly reminded him.

"No worries, I have a teacher..."

Li Pu once again came up with an excuse.

He believed that theoretically, he should also be able to learn non-human techniques.

"I see. According to what I know, indeed, some non-humans like using secret martial arts as dowry."

She Nan nodded after listening, but then added, "But you better persuade your teacher; the body structures of humans and non-humans differ greatly, so do their habits."

"Even if you succeed in courting, for him it might be the start of a disaster, a burden his body can’t withstand."

Guan Heshi: ?

Thus, both sides exchanged their respective copies amicably and even shared learning points and some tricks.

Under She Nan’s grateful gaze, Li Pu waved his hand casually and then left.

As soon as Li Pu disappeared from sight, his breath immediately turned rapid.

"Finally, finally!"

"This year’s rooter is definitely me!"

Entirely lacking the calm demeanor he had earlier, he hurriedly opened a booth and couldn’t wait to start practicing right there.

Meanwhile, Li Pu, estimating that he was now out of sight, also ducked into a small alley and quickly went over the Unloading Hand copy.

"Okay, learned it."

A few minutes later, he snapped his fingers.

Extending his right hand, one could see it was covered with an almost entirely transparent energy membrane.

Lightly slicing in front of him...

Bang!

A sound broke through the air, temporarily pushing away the surrounding air.

This move, Unloading Hand, can break through all non-physical attacks.

According to She Nan’s words, theoretically, it can even be used against ghostly beasts.

However, its strength is determined by the Exorcist’s physical and mental factors.

Taking She Nan as an example, with strength equivalent to level 7, he can only counter most non-physical attacks from level 6.

If facing a level 7 attack, then this move can only deal with a small portion.

Yet, as Li Pu had guessed, the Unloading Hand is quite similar to Sprint and other Summoner skills.

Not only can he master it, but also activate it with dual force.

"Though achieving instant dual-force activation will need a few days of familiarization."

"Better head to the arena first."

After trying a few times, Li Pu walked out of the alley.

Arriving at the arena, Da Ka had already completed his fifth round.

The opponent wasn’t strong, he proceeded smoothly.

"So, did you finalize your plan?"

Seeing Li Pu, he asked with a smile.

"Yes."

Li Pu stated his choice.

"Great, great."

Hearing the choice, Da Ka nodded, "Rest assured, there’s plenty of Crystal Coins."

Since he said he’d cover everything, he’d definitely cover everything.

Besides, a regular level 4 summoned beast generally only has two or three inherent abilities, and they’re likely of rather ordinary quality; how costly could it be?

Estimating the energy consumption, it would be at most around 200 million.

Once he fills it with the championship prize, everything will be settled.
