Chapter 96: Chapter 95: New Talent – [Thunder Element Affinity (S-level)]!

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

If you’re not upgrading the highest talent, aren’t you a fool?

Mo Qingchen unhesitatingly chose to upgrade and enhance the [Divine Soul Thought Movement].

A faint purple radiance rose from beneath the scroll, transforming into starlike purple light and began to penetrate his body.

As these purple dots merged into his flesh and blood, Mo Qingchen felt his mind become clearer, and even the spiritual power he emitted became more solid and pure.

At the same time, the scenes perceived by his spiritual power became clearer, even allowing him to slightly sense various elemental powers in the air.

[Notice: Beastmaster (Mo Qingchen) is using the “B-level Talent Upgrade Scroll” to upgrade the talent “Divine Soul Thought Movement (B-level)”, enhancing in progress…]

The prompt from the [Abyss Pattern] echoed in his ears.

At this moment, his spiritual power surged, and the accompanying skill [Telekinesis] also enhanced.

[Notice: Upgrade enhancement completed, Beastmaster (Mo Qingchen)’s talent “Divine Soul Thought Movement” has been upgraded to A-level quality.]

On Mo Qingchen’s attribute panel, his spiritual power increased by 20 points again.

The enhancement of Telekinesis became even more terrifying.

Previously, 1 point of spiritual power could manipulate a 10-pound object, now it has skyrocketed tenfold, with 1 point able to control a 100-pound object.

With his current 127 points of spiritual power, he could control up to 12,700 pounds, which is somewhat terrifying.

“No wonder Beastmasters with extraordinary talents can become the strongest among the strong, the skills that come with talent are too terrifying.”

Thinking of some battle videos among Beastmasters he had seen, where a talented Beastmaster would personally attack the opposing Beastmaster in battle, securing victory.

In the real world, who cares about martial ethics in a fight?

As long as you can kill the opponent, by all means, use any extreme measures.

From now on, he, Mo Qingchen, would also become such an untraditional Beastmaster.

Just thinking about the fierce battle between Beastmasters, he stealthily goes into the range of his spiritual power, controlling sharp weapons to deliver a life-altering surgery on the enemy.

The scene is too beautiful…

Closing the attribute panel, Mo Qingchen took another item from the [Abyss Pattern].

This was a fist-sized, semi-transparent crystal, emitting hues of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, each color flowing distinctly within its own space.

This is the S-level special reward after settling the newcomer trial dungeon — [S-level Talent Stone (Random Elemental Affinity)].

A specialty item awarded by the Abyssal Rules, usable by both Beastmasters and their beasts.

However, using the S-level Talent Stone on either Mo Jin or Grey Wolf felt undeserving.

The former has SS-level talent, insect, and poison dual elements, now learning some wind element skills, potentially becoming an insect, poison, and wind three-element Beast.

Adding another element might overly disperse Mo Jin’s focus, somewhat counterproductive.

As for Grey Wolf, a Concept-level Holy Beast, an S-level talent wouldn’t suit him.

Moreover, Grey Wolf is positioned as a logistic support-type Beast; giving him an S-level elemental affinity talent to develop in a combat direction is just more counterproductive.

Red Wolf…

In that case, I’ll use it myself!

Coincidentally, Mo Qingchen’s long-range attack methods were quite singular; with S-level elemental affinity, learning corresponding skills would add diversity to his attacks.

Thinking of this, Mo Qingchen crushed the crystal.

The red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet lights turned into star-like particles, swirling around his body.

The starlike lights penetrated his body yet diffused from him once again.

After about a minute, the lights gradually dimmed until they disappeared completely.

[Notice: Beastmaster (Mo Qingchen) used “S-level Talent Stone (Random Elemental Affinity)” and obtained the S-level talent “Thunder Element Affinity”!]

[Thunder Element Affinity (S-level): As a child of thunder, you can easily control the thunder element, shaping it to your will. Usage of any thunder-related skills will see a 100% power increase!]

A yellow lightning mark directly imprinted on his forehead’s [Abyss Pattern], slowly fading away.

Upon reopening the attribute panel, there were now four talents instead of three originally.

[Talents: Eye of Truth (Concept Myth, Divine Dimness), Thunder Element Affinity (S-level), Divine Soul Thought Movement (A-level), Power of One Cauldron (C-level)]

Simultaneously, Mo Qingchen discovered that all four basic attributes had increased: Power +5, Agility +15, Spirit +20, Constitution +10.

No wonder it’s an S-level talent, with it, Mo Qingchen’s prowess has at least elevated a notch.

Previously considered as a half-physical system mage, now he could count as a real mage.

Of course, this requires learning various thunder skills first.

When it comes to thunder skills, Mo Qingchen’s eyes turned to another small box – [Beastmaster Skill Stone Exchange Card (Basic 8, Intermediate 4, Advanced 2)].

With this, he could go to the logistics department of [Yanhuang Academy] to obtain 8 basic skills, 4 intermediate skills, and 2 advanced skills.

“Little Dummy, link to the Yanhuang Academy logistics department’s item exchange list, list all thunder skills from basic to advanced.”

A total of 14 skills, he must choose wisely.

As a Beastmaster, the main combat power is still the beast, so learning some auxiliary skills is a must. For attack skills, one single-target and one area-of-effect suffices.

With the plan in mind, he had Little Dummy project the information list and examined it one by one.

Basic “Thunder Skill”, high damage single-target skill, with slight paralysis effect.

Intermediate “Lightning Chain”, attacks five nearby targets, with a paralysis effect.

Advanced “Five Thunders Strike the Top”, wide-area high damage area-of-effect skill, with strong paralysis effect.

“Most thunder attack skills come with paralysis effects, strong offense with control; no wonder thunder element beasts are so powerful.”

These three skills were confirmed as the attack skills he would exchange for, while the remaining 11 skills could be selected leisurely, preferably to complement his own beasts.

“Just right, the anomaly of the newcomer trial dungeon score can be explained by saying my superior talent, relying on S-level thunder element affinity, combined with Mo Jin, allowed for swift and precise slaying of numerous exotic beasts.”

It’s worth noting that although Mo Jin is an SS-level beast, its racial base is too low. Compared to those innately powerful Exotic Beast races, its hard strength still has some gaps.

For example, Situ Minghe’s SS-level Beast [Flame Spirit], its killing move in the last five minutes almost burst through his defense.

If back then he had relied solely on Mo Jin and himself to grind monsters, let alone dominating the rankings for ten days or reaping three consecutive rewards.

By the third day, they might have been overtaken and left far behind.
