Chapter 139: Shui Qianyue's Incredible Talents!
"Is it that kid?" Wang Yan was somewhat uncertain, as the difference in their strengths seemed too vast. She remembered Ye Tian, who could only exert a force of 12,000 elephants in his attacks. Such an attack strength wouldn't even qualify as a one-star king-level, whereas on the King’s List, Ye Tian was ranked as a five-star king-level warrior. However, upon closer inspection, she confirmed that the Ye Tian on the King’s List was indeed the same Ye Tian she had seen before.
According to the information, Ye Tian had just arrived at the Zhonghai Super Base, appearing very light-hearted, and the timing of his arrival matched the time she knew. Could there really be such a coincidence where the same name and timing of entering Zhonghai Super Base matched, but not the person?
In reality, the truth was that Ye Tian had concealed his true strength.
"I underestimated this kid," Wang Yan murmured to herself. Her guess was that the opponent had forged a perfect foundation and was an absolute genius with the power to break limits. He possessed pseudo-mystic-level strength talents and had only recently broken through to the king-level. It was impossible for him to have grown to such an extent in such a short time, unless...
"Could it be that this kid's cultivation talent is at least of the Moonlight level? In that case, training in a high-level or top-tier training room for a month could significantly increase his physical strength, and his progress would be extremely rapid. Plus, if he has more than just pseudo-mystic-level strength talents, it's indeed possible for him to ascend to a five-star king-level warrior!" Wang Yan analyzed.
"Interesting, interesting. Let him grow for a while longer. That opportunity could be given to him, to someone with good karma. Maybe my hope of stepping into the saint level in the future lies with him," she said quietly to herself.
Ye Tian didn't leave but instead inquired of the spirit, "Spirit, I want to comprehend the War God Stele. How much does it cost?"
"One point per day!" the spirit introduced.
"One point per day?" Ye Tian calculated. He had 31 points, meaning he could comprehend for 31 days, which was equivalent to a month. A month was not a short time, but what should he use it to comprehend? Pseudo-mystic-level defensive talent? Or some other pseudo-mystic-level talent?
"Not worth it!" Ye Tian immediately dismissed the idea. Talents like these could be completely replicated using his Copy Talent ability. If he encountered a warrior with pseudo-mystic-level defensive talent, he could easily copy it. There was no need to waste War God Tower points to comprehend the War God Stele. It would be a complete waste! He regretted spending so much time in the Beast World comprehending pseudo-mystic-level defensive talents and gaining a bit of defensive mystique. Now, to think of comprehending it was foolish.
"I should either create sword techniques or comprehend sword intent!" Ye Tian decided. Creating a gold-level sword technique was not easy, and a month was definitely not enough. Besides, gold-level sword techniques could probably be purchased in the Zhonghai Super Base, albeit at a higher price.
"Let's comprehend sword intent then!" Ye Tian thought. Sword intent was an essential for cultivating sword techniques, and it was also time-consuming. Ye Tian, who was usually busy practicing the Purple Blood Chongxue Technique, did not have enough time to comprehend sword intent.
"Spirit, I want to comprehend the War God Stele!" Ye Tian said to the spirit.
"Follow me!" The spirit led Ye Tian to a room with a formation altar.
"This is…" Ye Tian sensed spatial power from the altar.
"This is a teleportation array!" the spirit introduced.
"Teleportation array!" Ye Tian was surprised. He hadn't expected the War God Tower to have a teleportation array. As far as he knew, the Zhonghai Super Base didn't have one either; it seemed to be unique to the War God Tower.
Ye Tian stood on the teleportation array, and immediately the spirit activated it. With a flash of light, Ye Tian teleported away and arrived at another array in the next moment. He was in a vast space with no land, no sun, moon, or stars, just faint light illuminating the entire area.
In the center of the space was a huge stele, about 70 meters high. Though not as grand as the Enlightenment Stele in the Beast World, it was still quite extraordinary.
The War God Stele emitted a unique vibration that filled the entire space, surrounded by small floating stone platforms. Many of these platforms were already occupied by martial artists in deep contemplation of the Stele.
"Are these the geniuses from the Kings' Ranking? No, there must be strong figures from the Saint and Emperor Rankings as well," Ye Tian speculated. Unfortunately, his copy talent was heavily suppressed here, preventing him from viewing their talent status, or else he could have copied a couple of Moonlight-level cultivation talents.
Swiftly, Ye Tian moved to an unoccupied floating stone platform and sat down cross-legged to begin his comprehension. His arrival went unnoticed. People were constantly coming and going, too engrossed in the War God Stele to pay attention to another person joining them.
However, Ye Tian soon frowned in his comprehension.
"The effect is not as good as the Enlightenment Stele from the Beast World, only about forty-three percent as effective. It seems the War God Stele is slightly lower in grade," he thought. Despite this, having some resources was better than none, so he continued his comprehension.
After a day of cultivation, Ye Tian left, not because he had given up, but because he planned to use up his copy opportunities first. Otherwise, wasting a month would mean losing two chances.
Outside the War God Tower, Ye Tian blended into the crowd, waiting. He was hoping to encounter a genius with Moonlight-level talent to copy. After three days of waiting, many talents emerged, mostly with extraordinary or Morning Star-level cultivation talents. Moonlight-level talents were incredibly rare in the Zhonghai Super Base.
Suddenly, a strikingly cold and elegant woman appeared, causing the crowd to exclaim, "It's Saint Shui Qianyue!"
Ranked eighth on the Saint Ranking, Shui Qianyue caught everyone's attention, including Ye Tian's. However, it wasn't her beauty that captivated him, but her talents.
Cultivation Talent: Moonlight-level
Ice Talent: Top-level
Speed Talent: High-level
Defense Talent: Pseudo-Mystic (Four-fifths)
"What incredible talents!" Ye Tian was astonished. Besides her Moonlight-level cultivation talent, she possessed a pseudo-mystic-level defense talent, a top-level ice talent, and a high-level speed talent, almost flawless. No wonder she was ranked eighth on the Saint Ranking.
"Pseudo-mystic-level defense talent, and it's four-fifths defense mystique. She must have a perfect foundation, but surely different from how I achieved mine. Perhaps she used some special treasures to forcibly create it?" Ye Tian speculated.
Without hesitation, he copied Shui Qianyue's Moonlight-level cultivation talent and her pseudo-mystic-level defense talent.
"Such a good person," he remarked, grateful for the two excellent talents she unwittingly provided.
Unaware of Ye Tian's silent gratitude, Shui Qianyue left amidst the admiring and respectful gazes of the crowd.
"Time to go home and integrate these talents, then come back to comprehend the sword intent," Ye Tian thought as he headed home.
