Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 515: Classes (2)

Su Yu was in no rush. He could first deal with the issue of acupoint fusion. It wouldn't be too late to open more at the Infinite Strength Realm. He stopped talking and hurriedly pointed out 36 acupoints on the puppet. He also gave Zhao Li an explanation of how these acupoints were supposed to be linked.

While controlling the puppet, Zhao Li said, "This is only a replica. I can only confirm that this cultivation method won't kill someone, but it's still hard to judge if it's really useful. I saw your deductions. It seems feasible as I don't see any issues. A truly good cultivation method will give someone a good impression with one glance. Everything will look smooth and logical and nothing will look out of place. This is the intuition of a strong cultivator."

Abruptly, the puppet started circulating source qi through the linked acupoints. A humming sound rang out. The 36 acupoints lit up one by one as the puppet started using the source qi within it.

1, 3, 7...

At the 35th acupoint, it blew up.

Su Yu was dumbfounded.

Zhao Li glanced at Su Yu and warned, "In the future, be careful with unknown cultivation methods. Something like this might happen."

This cultivation method was still imperfect. An explosion had erupted at the 35th acupoint. This signified that there was an issue with the circulation of source qi. But Zhao Li was already impressed that it worked up to the 34th acupoint. This was enough to prove that Su Yu was an exceptional genius.

Just how much knowledge did Su Yu have?

How many cultivation manuals had he read?

Thus, this was an extremely astonishing feat in Zhao Li's eyes. He had simply been hiding his admiration to prevent Su Yu from getting too arrogant. It wasn't like he had expected everything to work at the first attempt.

Creating a perfect cultivation method with 36 acupoints capable of suppressing the repelling force of acupoints in one try. How was that possible? Did the kid think that he was already a god?

The explosion was completely expected. In fact, at the 34th acupoint, Zhao Li was already on the verge of pulling his beard apart. He would probably go crazy if the explosion hadn't happened. Fortunately, an explosion had happened.

Su Yu frowned as he studied the puppet. He couldn’t help but lament that Zhou Hao sure was lucky. Yes. Zhou Hao was the lucky person who had avoided using this imperfect cultivation method. Su Yu was certainly not going to try the cultivation method himself.

At first, he was very satisfied with his own deductions. He had intended to let Zhou Hao try it immediately. If it wasn't for the fact that Zhao Li had previously helped him with his cultural arts, he wouldn't have thought of getting Zhao Li's help.

Thus, he could only praise Zhou Hao's luck. In Su Yu's opinion, Zhou Hao should thank his sense of responsibility and Zhao Li's puppet. Inwardly, Su Yu praised himself for his kindness. Who else would be kind enough to care about the well-being of their test subject like him?

"Teacher, at this point, there is still some repelling force. What do you think is the reason?"

Zhao Li was in no rush. Since the cultivation method had worked up until the 34th acupoint, it could only mean that this method was near completion. It wouldn't be too difficult to complete it.

After checking the puppet, Zhao Li altered the circulation path before installing a new acupoint to replace the one that had exploded. He said, "Give this a try. Also, if you need a puppet like this, you can take one back with you. Remember to not try random cultivation methods in the future. It's very dangerous."

"Thank you, teacher."

Su Yu did not bother asking about the price of the puppet. It was definitely not cheap.

Zhao Li was lacking in terms of merit points. But this old man was not lacking in terms of treasures and materials. If he was willing to sell his warehouse, he would probably be swimming in money.

While testing the new circulation path, Su Yu asked, "Teacher, if this works, you can give it a try. How many of these 36 acupoints have you opened?"

"24."

Zhao Li said, "At the Cloudbreach Realm, it is quite difficult to open 12 new acupoints. At my optimal state, I can probably open an acupoint per month if I'm lucky. I will need at least a year to open all the remaining ones."

"Don't worry about it. Which acupoints have you opened, Teacher? I have around 70 or 80 cultivation methods related to acupoint fusion in my possession. Apart from this method, I have personally tested all the others. They are safe. You can pick a few suitable ones for yourself..."

"..."

Zhao Li did not feel like saying anything. The hell? How many acupoint fusion methods did this kid know? Around 70 or 80? And all of them could be used? Were there even so many acupoint fusion methods in existence?

"You tried all of them?"

"Yeah."

"You're not dead?"

"..."

Su Yu was speechless. What question was that? Of course he was still alive. He knew what Zhao Li was getting at, but he would only try cultivation methods he was confident in. With the guarantee of his book, he was not worried about those cultivation methods. Up until now, no mishap had happened.

"Teacher, tell me about the acupoints you know first..."

Bang!

Yet another acupoint exploded.

This time, the explosion happened at the 33rd acupoint. Zhao Li ignored Su Yu and checked the puppet while muttering, "One acupoint was linked wrongly. Kid, you sure are lucky to still be alive."

Meanwhile, Su Yu was once again praising Zhou Hao's luck. That fellow had avoided yet another troublesome version of this cultivation method.

While modifying the circulation path, Zhao Li said, "These are the acupoints I have opened. Take a look and see if there are any suitable cultivation methods for me..."

When Su Yu looked at the 24 acupoints, he grinned. Not bad at all. The red toad race's Acupoint Assembly Art would work.

The original Acupoint Assembly Art required 22 acupoints, but Su Yu had removed a few unnecessary acupoints from it, leaving only 18 acupoints behind. All 18 of them overlapped with Zhao Li's acupoints. The 4 that had been removed were useless. In Su Yu's opinion, this method would work even without them.

Of course, that would require a certain amount of work to deduce the way to operate the version with 18 acupoints.

But this was much easier as it only involved the removal of useless acupoints. If even Hu Qiusheng could do something like that, Zhao Li would be fine. After all, there was already a working template with 22 acupoints.

"Teacher, I have a cultivation method suitable for you."

Su Yu was in no rush to get Zhao Li to continue deducing his incomplete cultivation method. Instead, he pointed out 22 acupoints and said, "Teacher, this is a cultivation method I deduced previously. It has 22 acupoints, but I discovered a few superfluous acupoints. Of course, these 22 can work well in a proper system. But if you remove 4 acupoints for the most efficient system, you will have to deduce a new circulation path."

He then allowed Zhao Li to try the cultivation method on the puppet. All 22 acupoints were activated successfully.

Su Yu activated the same cultivation method with his own body as he said, "Teacher, look at this. These 22 acupoints can suppress the repelling force when working together. The effect is decent as it can suppress at least a third of the repelling force. You can try it out."

With a pensive look, Zhao Li said nothing and started making his own deductions based on the original template with 22 acupoints. Soon, he removed 4 acupoints from it. Having done that, he gave Su Yu a deep gaze and exhaled before saying, "You're a genius."

This was a true genius! Through his own deductions, Su Yu was right. This cultivation method would work even after removing the four acupoints. What did that signify?

Since Su Yu was able to pick 4 superfluous acupoints out of 22 acupoints, it could only mean that he had a deep understanding of cultivation methods and acupoints.

Su Yu smiled, "You praise me too much, Teacher."

Zhao Li ignored Su Yu. The original cultivation method was probably something Su Yu had obtained somewhere else. He was sure of that. It was impossible for Su Yu to come out with a completely original method. But the subsequent removal of the 4 useless acupoints was probably something Su Yu had done himself. But the new circulation path had yet to be deduced.

He finally realized something. Su Yu would only try out proper working cultivation methods himself. He would only come here when he encountered incomplete cultivation methods. Knowing the 18 usable acupoints and the original cultivation method, Zhao Li was able to quickly come out with a new version of the cultivation method. Shortly after, he tested it on the puppet. It worked perfectly.

Zhao Li was just about to try it on his own body when Su Yu said, "Teacher, let me give it a try. You're a Cloudbreach. If one of your acupoints ends up exploding, you'll need a few years to recover. For me, I only need a few months."

Before Zhao Li could say anything, Su Yu had activated 18 of his acupoints. Before long, all 18 of the acupoints lit up. Then, a suppressive force appeared.

Su Yu grinned, "Incredible, Teacher. You succeeded in one try. This works. It can suppress a third of the repelling force. Teacher, why don't we name this method the Zhao Acupoint Fusion Art?"

Even if Su Yu was going to spread his acupoint fusion methods, he would not spread the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art.

This method with the ability to suppress a third of the repelling force was already one of the best among the ones he knew. It required only 18 acupoints so most people would only need to open a few extra acupoints to use it as the rest would probably overlap with what they already opened.

Just this cultivation method alone would have an inestimable value.

Zhao Li glared at Su Yu before trying the cultivation method himself.

A short while later, he sighed.

He was really getting old.

He had to admit that. freew ebnov el

This cultivation method was actually working very well. It had indeed suppressed the repelling force. Since he was a Cloudbreach, it did not manage to suppress a third of the repelling force, but it wasn't too far from that.

Su Yu said, "I have another cultivation method. I can suppress around two thirds of the repelling force. Teacher..."

Zhao Li glared at the kid. Just how many cultivation methods did this kid know? He even had enough to classify them into different classes?

A class with one third suppression, and another class with two thirds suppression? Did this mean that the incomplete cultivation method could very well suppress the entire repelling force?

Stop messing around!

Zhao Li did not think that his heart would be strong enough to take that shock. He was already old. The second cultivation method Su Yu mentioned was naturally the Acupoint Flux Art of the celestial dragon race.
