Chapter 2 (1/2)

Ye Xiao had not expected that in the time it took for him to eat, he had actually advanced to a higher grade.

That seemed to be a little perfunctory.

After all, it might have taken many years for others to advance through a small realm.

Strangely, it took him only half a day.

He once again communicated with his divine soul and saw that the Ming Luo saber technique on the first page had already been cultivated to perfection. The progress bar had disappeared, and the page that recorded the cultivation technique had turned golden.

That meant that from now on, he could use the perfected Ming Luo saber technique.

The Ming Luo saber technique was the name of the saber technique that Ye Xiao had read. However, in reality, it was also a cultivation technique that was the result of plagiarism. It was derived from the Saber-drawing technique which was one of the basic saber techniques.

“I wonder how powerful the Ming Luo saber technique is. When the weekend comes around, I must find a place where no one is around to give it a try.”

He glanced at the second page containing the Chen Family’s Saber. That saber technique had been cultivated to 87 percent.

The third page held the Gentle Breeze Swordsmanship and the fourth page contained the Tie Family’s Fist that both had been cultivated to 80 percent.

The origin of the Chen Family’s Saber was the Cleaving saber technique!

The origin of the Gentle Breeze Swordsmanship was the Chopping sword technique!

The origin of the Tie Family’s Fist was the Straight Fist strike technique!

The authors of those basic cultivation techniques were probably not very well educated. Their names were very simple as they were either their own names or their surnames.

However… They were plagiarized and adapted cultivation techniques, so what was he expecting?

Once they synthesized, Ye Xiao hoped they would get better names. After all, he was still a young man who was used to a more cultured naming style.

Could he be considered such as he was a young man in that world?

After eating lunch, Ye Xiao returned to his management area and started reading again.

He was not in a hurry to advance. It was just that he had been sick in bed for too long in his previous life. Thus, in that life, he wanted to be more productive.

An afternoon passed in the blink of an eye. That time, Ye Xiao had read 40 books!

Unfortunately, there were only five cultivation techniques that qualified. Among them, three were saber techniques, two were sword techniques, and the rest were all from the same basic cultivation techniques. It was just that they had changed the name and some moves, and it became a new cultivation technique that could not be recorded in the Golden Book.

Ye Xiao sighed. A martial artist who only studied cultivation techniques was really too passive.

If you wrote a cultivation technique, others would immediately copy and adapt a hundred other cultivation techniques from it. They would earn more money than you and become more famous. Most importantly, it was not illegal. Which would make anyone angry.

Fortunately, Ye Xiao’s personality was more nonchalant, so he did not overly pursue cultivation. Naturally, there was nothing to be angry about.

When he could not take it anymore, he would switch to books on history and geography to calm his mind.

The history of that world was similar to the one in his previous life. The dynasties also matched, but there were some differences.

The first anomaly was the dynasties in history. They all used their families as representatives and cultivated to the very peak to unify the nine provinces.

In every dynasty, there would always be a few prodigies who cultivated to a level that surpassed ordinary people.

Such as the three sovereigns and five emperors. Even among their officials, there were also martial arts experts.

Strangely, those people would always disappear in the end. Then, they would be swallowed up by the rising prodigies of new families, and new dynasties would be established.

It seemed to be the same abroad.

Therefore, the situation in that world was similar to the modern situation in his past life. There were basically all the events that had happened in history, but there were some special differences.
