43 Swordsmanship Training

Ancestors, please give Ah’Chen your blessings. He is the future of our village.

Wuzu even started to pray for Lu Chen’s safety because of the potential he showed.

After the prayers, Wuzu noticed that Lu Chen was going to dissect the Fire Bull and he laughed.

“Ah’Chen, go and rest. I’ll get someone else to take care of the Fire Bull.”

“Someone else?”

“Yes. You may be strong in prowess, but you are no match for the professional hunters in dissecting and storing the preys. Furthermore, you’ve just finished the hunt, you need some rest too.”

After giving the suggestion some thoughts, Lu Chen nodded and replied, “Alright then. Thank you, Master Wuzu.”

Lu Chen was at ease to let Master Wuzu handle the job not only because he has trust in Wuzu, but also because of his own prowess that made him not worrying about people stealing anything from him.

After all, in this world, theft was not a small crime. Especially when it comes to thieving from an expert, the consequences of that wouldn’t be imprisonment or fine, but death.

However, even after Lu Chen left, Xiao Wei stayed back behind.

She was staring closely at everyone in the courtyard, not giving them the chance to take anything out from the courtyard.

Lu Chen couldn’t help but laugh to see her.

Why does it feel like I’ve raised a watchdog in the house? Well, that’s not a bad thing I guess.

Lu Chen didn’t go to rest after leaving the courtyard. Instead, he went to the backyard and started swinging his sword.

The umbrella’s owner, the swordsman, rewarded Lu Chen with lots of experience in basic sword skills which eventually upgraded Lu Chen’s Swordsmanship into Master Swordsmanship.

However, cultivation was like sailing against the current, either one keeps forging ahead or he keeps falling behind.

In order to improve his swordsmanship and also so he could fight better against his enemies, Lu Chen has been busy honing himself.

However, as soon as he started training, Lu Chen frowned as he couldn’t find back the same feeling when training in the dreams.

He stood unmoving for a long time, recalling back to the dreams.

After a dozen minutes, Lu Chen opened his eyes and followed his heart swinging out a sword strike forward.

It was just as ordinary as any other strikes he has made, but Lu Chen could tell that it was different this time. The sword didn’t flinch at all, it felt just like a part of his body.

At the same time, a system message sounded in Lu Chen’s ears.

[System Message: Host has performed a perfect sword strike in the training. Master Swordsmanship Mastery Points +1. Current Master Swordsmanship Mastery Points: 1/3000.]

Lu Chen’s attention was drawn away by the system message and he fell back away from the mystical state.

However, Lu Chen couldn’t be bothered anymore.

Instead, Lu Chen smiled happily when he saw the system message.

So I’m right. Mastery Points can be earned from training. Killing monsters is a type of training, daily training is also training.

The only difference is that daily training will only increase a specific type of Mastery Points instead of the common Mastery Points.

But that’s true. After all, it wouldn’t make sense if I’m practicing swordsmanship and the system awards me with the magical Mastery Points, would it?

Although it wouldn’t increase his common Mastery Points, Lu Chen was still hyped. They live in a dangerous world, Lu Chen wouldn’t let any chance of improving slip from his hands.

Then, Lu Chen ventured into a session of nonstop training for the whole afternoon.

During his training, Lu Chen would often make some of the perfect swings and whenever it happens, the system message would ring in his ears.

Lu Chen performed more than 10 thousand swings of sword for the whole afternoon. But his mouth twitched when he realized that only less than 300 swings were verified by the system as a perfect swing.

Sigh. After all, I didn’t earn the experience through my own blood and sweat, it’s been imparted to me by the others. I will need a long time of training to make the experiences into my own.

The session of sword training was unsatisfactory given that there was only one successful perfect swing out of tens of swings. However, it doesn’t mean there wasn’t anything to celebrate today.

At some point in the training, when he earned 10 Master Swordsmanship’s Mastery Points, another system message followed right after.

[System Message: Host has honed your sword skill. Swordsman Mastery Point +1. Current Swordsman’s Mastery Points: 1/600.]

Lu Chen was dumbstruck to hear the system message.

Training sword skills in real life will also award Mastery Points for the Swordsman class?

That’s right, this time, it didn’t just award him with Mastery Points for the Master Swordsmanship skill, but also his Swordsman class.

Lu Chen was surprised to hear the system message.

But he quickly understood the situation.

Swordsman isn’t a class unique to a world, it exists in many other worlds. While they aren’t like me that can use my Mastery Points to level up, they have their own ways of doing it. That is by endless training.

Which also means that I can be like them, leveling up through hardcore training. Practice makes perfect. If I continue swinging the sword for countless times, I will slowly be able to learn the sword skills better and also earn the Swordsman’s Mastery Points.

That’s great news. From now on, other than going out to kill, I can also improve my prowess through training.

Of course, Lu Chen noticed that although it could improve his prowess, he only earned less than a hundred Mastery Points after a whole day. It wasn’t as effective as killing the monsters.

Killing, even when it’s just the Ungraded Broken Souls would still reward me with twenty or more Mastery Points. That’s almost the same as a whole afternoon of training. Surely, unless one is extremely talented, training will never be as effective as fighting in actual battles.

Which makes sense. After all, one has to risk his life in the fights, of course one’s prowess will improve faster this way. The only advantage of training is that one doesn’t have to risk his life.

Lu Chen quickly realized their pros and cons. However, Lu Chen didn’t choose to give up one of them for the other.

Only a kid would make choices, he would like to have both of them.

That’s right, Lu Chen would never give up going out to kill but he wasn’t planning to give up training either.

I’ll train whenever I’m not out hunting. My prowess will improve the fastest like this.

As Lu Chen made his plan, he noticed that the sun was already setting.

Hence, he didn’t continue the training and took a shower. After that, he drank some of the Fire Bull’s blood and took some rest before the night patrol.

As Lu Chen “rested” in his coma this morning, in addition to the replenishment from the Fire Bull’s blood, Lu Chen wasn’t feeling tired even after a whole afternoon’s training.

Then, he waved goodbye to Xiao Wei and arrived in the totem plaza. There, Jian was already waiting for him with a dozen jars of herbal soup.

“The herbal soup came out fresh just today. Master Wuzu asked me to pass it to you.”

Jian swallowed a mouth of saliva when he mentioned about the herbal soup in his hands, but that’s really all he did. Not only was he not jealous of Lu Chen, but he was also feeling grateful to Lu Chen.

“Thank you. Because of you, all our portion of herbal soup has increased today.” freewe bnovel.com

“No need to thank me. If you and your families have not gathered the rest of the ingredients, Master Wuzu will not be able to make the soup either.”

Lu Chen didn’t hold the jars in his hands as they would be carried by the two barbarians following behind Lu Chen.

Even so, they have no complaints at all.

In the battle last night, although they were also rushing to the scene, Lu Chen was much faster than them and by the time they’ve arrived, he has already taken control of the situation.

Even though they didn’t take part in the battle personally, they saw their fellow warriors that have fallen on the ground. Thus, they couldn’t help but be reminded of the dangers of the night patrol. This strengthened their determination to stay with Lu Chen.

The black umbrella is extremely strong, but even so, Ah’Chen still killed it. As long as we follow Ah’Chen, we will be safe before he is defeated.

In comparison to death, helping Lu Chen carrying some of his items was no big deal at all.

Just like that, Lu Chen held the metal sword in his hands and the two barbarians followed behind him as they begin their patrol duty.

When they’ve come to the border of the totem pillar’s protection, Lu Chen noticed the human-head fireballs have returned again.

Damn it, is it that impossible to kill all of them?𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
