I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 49 Trouble

When he returned home that night, Chen Yiming took out the plastic box containing the eggs of the gold-eating bug.

He opened the box and poured out one of the eggs, then threw it into his mouth.

The egg was quite tough, and it took a lot of chewing to break it up.

It was soft inside.

It tasted a little sweet.

Unfortunately, just one was too little. Before he could truly savor it, he had eaten it all. He did not know if it would have any effect on him.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. During this time, Chen Yiming returned to his life traveling between the school and his house.

The reason was that Zhang Youde was assigned to the front line just a few days after he became a core disciple candidate.

Through Zhang Youde, he had finally gained access to a way for him to secretly join in the disputes of the martial arts world in East Lake City so that he could secretly learn different types of sword techniques.

When Zhang Youde left, no one could replace him.

Among the people he knew, Wang Bowen and Teng Zhihui’s cultivation levels were too high. Other than giving him occasional pointers, they did not bring him along with them because the difference in their cultivation levels was too great.

In the eyes of Wang Bowen and Teng Zhihui, he should be working at the martial arts school to build his foundation at this time instead of thinking about other things.

Chen Yiming was unable to do anything. The other martial arts trainees were of too low a level.

At most, they were like Liang Lele and Zhao Jingru, whose families were small merchants, and they would not be able to help him learn sword techniques as he wished.

The matter of secretly learning sword techniques was temporarily put on hold.

Chen Yiming could only rely on working as a part-time teacher at the Power-doubling Martial Arts Training Center, occasionally going with Chen Shaojie to check the household registers, and renting out the three shops in the city center to build up his finances.

However, trying to use the money earned from jobs below the level of the third transformation to buy cultivation techniques that was available to core disciples who had typically undergone at least three transformations was akin to working in a small city and trying to buy a house in a big city in his previous world. It was impossible to achieve this in a short period of

time.

As for leaving the city and entering the wilderness alone to become a hunter and hunt mutant beasts to earn money, the risk was too high for someone like him, who had only undergone three transformations. Ordinary mutant beasts were already at the same level as him. Even if he had high combat strength, there was strength in numbers. If he was targeted by multiple mutant beasts, it would be very difficult for him to defend himself.

He had not planned to leave the city before his sixth transformation.

Life returned to when he first entered the school.

One day, Chen Yiming suddenly realized that since he couldn’t achieve his plan of gathering many sword techniques to create a well-rounded sword technique for the time being, he might as well try to create a brand new sword technique based on what he knew now and see if it would work out.

Since he thought of it, he might as well just do it.

When he returned home that night, he tried to combine the moves of the Mantis Snake Sword Technique, the Phantom Sword Technique, the Long Rainbow Sword Technique, and the Mountain Breaking Sword Technique into one technique for his cultivation.

He only practiced it a few times before he created a brand new sword technique based on his intuition.

He was secretly grateful for the enhancement from his Level-1 swordsmanship talent. He could learn all these sword techniques from the disciple realm in mere seconds.

After that, he continued to cultivate the Mantis Snake Sword Technique at the school during the day. At night, he returned home and worked on the brand new sword technique he had created.

In a few days, he discovered that the speed at which he obtained Skill Points was different from normal. His speed increased from 3 points per month to 4 points per month. This made him extremely excited. It meant that the brand new sword technique he had combined was even stronger than the Mantis Snake Sword Technique.

So he gave a name to the new sword technique — Chen Style Sword Technique.

Chen Yiming wished he could just stay at home and train all day. However, since he didn’t have a good reason, he had no choice but to go to the martial arts school during the day.

He estimated that if he practiced the Chen Style Sword Technique all day, the speed at which he could accumulate Skill Points would reach 5 points per month. During this time, he successfully broke through to the fourth transformation on a quiet night.

Chen Yiming

Talent: Swordsmanship — Level 1

Level: Disciple realm, 4th transformation

Skill points: 12

He was one step closer to the 30 Skill Points required for the Level-2 swordsmanship talent.

However, his life did not change much.

The war on the front line had not seen much change, and just a month ago, Lin Yixuan had brought two core disciples with him to the front line.

The atmosphere in the school suddenly became much more serious. The eldest senior brother in the school had been forced to go to the front line. Everyone could feel the pressure from the ongoing war, and they did not return to the attitude of treating their training as a chore.

These days lasted for nearly half a year.

It was another quiet night.

Chen Yiming Talent: Swordsmanship — Level 2

Level: Disciple realm, 6th transformation Constitution: Basic physique for swordsmanship Skill points: 3

The latest martial arts talent panel had an additional section on constitution.

Basic physique for swordsmanship? Before Chen Yiming could study it carefully, he was interrupted by his second uncle, who had suddenly come to visit.

In the living room of the Chen family’s house, the coffee table was filled with fruits, and Chen Yingying’s unfinished mutant beast meat was left on the dining table.

Because of Chen Yiming, the Chen family was living a carefree life. Father Chen and Mother Chen no longer had to work and would stroll around the residential district every day to kill time.

Second aunt Li Qingping fell to the ground and started wailing the moment she entered the house.

“Please, let Yiming save Shaojie.”

Mother Chen hurried over and helped Li Qingping to the sofa.

“What happened?” Father Chen asked directly.

“Shaojie isn’t back yet. It’s already close to midnight.

We headed to the city patrol to ask around. We saw many families like ours there, but we didn’t find any answers. We were just told to go home and wait.” Chen Zhipeng told them the whole story. His voice trembled as he tried hard to hold back the tears in his eyes.

When he heard the commotion, Chen Yiming had opened the door and exited his room.

After hearing Chen Zhipeng’s words, Chen Yiming asked, “Is there no news at all? Have you looked for the captain of Chen Shaojie’s team?”

Chen Yiming and Chen Shaojie had only worked together on the household verification job for three months before the cooperation ended when Chen Shaojie’s team’s captain made a full recovery.

“We can’t find him. We’re guessing that the entire team went missing,” Chen Zhipeng replied.

“Did Shaojie tell you what he was going to do tonight?” Chen Yiming asked again.

“During dinner, he said that it was his normal job,” Chen Zhipeng replied. After gathering all the information he could gather at the moment from Chen Zhipeng, Chen Yiming fell silent.

Chen Yiming and Chen Shaojie had done the household verification job many times and he was very familiar with it.

The job usually started in the evening and ended at 8 pm. Even if it ended late, it would usually be no later than 9 pm.

One reason was that those who had gone out to work would have just returned home at that time. Those who were supposed to be at home would all be there, which made it suitable for them to check the household register.

Another reason was that as they continued to capture more unidentified persons in the village, the difficulty of subsequent arrests would increase.

Those who had yet to be captured were mostly really strong and not easy to deal with. After Chen Yiming and Chen Shaojie took on the job for more than a month, the city patrol team had arranged for multiple teams to check the village at the same time.

The teams were helping and looking out for each other. After 9 pm, since the other city patrol teams had basically finished their work, individual teams would not dare to stay any longer.

Therefore, if Chen Shaojie was still nowhere to be found even after midnight, something must have happened.
