Chapter 58
The elder persuaded Fiona a few more times, but since Fiona insisted, so he could only help him register the skill.
Nevertheless, the elder also expressed that if Fiona wanted to exchange the booklet, he could do that anytime so long as the elder was there.
Since the elder already offered that, Fiona wondered whether he should wait until he had mastered the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows, but pretended that he learned nothing and returned to exchange the booklet.
Otherwise, Fiona would feel guilty for the elder’s kindness.
Not long after Fiona left the martial art chamber, a Lawrence family member visited and chatted with the elder.
After discovering what type of skill Fiona chose, he made an excuse and hurriedly left.
“The Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows? That incomplete martial art?” In a rockery behind the Lawrence Fort, Yoel received the news and was shocked.
The person in front of him was the one chatting with the elder at the martial art chamber just now.
“What was that guy thinking? The Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows isn’t our Lawrence family’s martial skill, and it can’t be combined with other skills either.
Previously, Anita picked the Bloodthirsty Spear Method, and there are more than ten martial arts that can work well with it.
Why did he choose the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows that nobody wants? Is he crazy, or am I a fool?” Yoel dismissed the other guy and rubbed his chin, puzzled over what he heard.
Soon, Yoel shook his head.
“Forget it.
I’m not that worried since he chose Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows.
The martial skill won‘t work well with the Bloodthirsty Spear Method.
Anita, you dared to humiliate me yesterday.
Just wait for the trial day.
I’ll make you spit out a mouthful of teeth and teach you a lesson on how to be a proper son-in-law!”
Then, he snorted coldly.
He rubbed the coin pouch in his hand, and the jingling sound proved that it was filled with money.
After that, he made his way to the other side of Lawrence Fort.
About two hours later, Fiona reached Evergreen Town.
As soon as he got home, he quickly started his training.
He left a note for the servant who sent him meals and told him to leave his food on the table outside the courtyard.
As for Fiona himself, he shut the door and windows tight and enter the Time Warp Zone to continue training.
At this moment, Fiona appeared serious as he trained.
He was not practicing the Bloodthirsty Spear Method, but the Lotus Leaves Chop’s first trick he recently mastered, the Endless Blossoming.
As Lotus Leaves Chop was a high-rank Mortal Grade martial skill, it required higher cultivation than the Bloodthirsty Spear Method.
The first move, Endless Blossoming, could only be mastered by a third-stage True Martial Realm Warrior.
The second trick, Thousand Sacred Lotus, would require him to be at the fifth stage of the True Martial Realm.
Fiona moved the long sword in his hand elegantly.
Then, the light flickered, and a ray of light shone out.
However, Fiona moved with strange footwork.
The footwork appeared messy, but under a closer look, it was as if Fiona was moving rhythmically, which was strange.
With the unpredictable footwork coupled with the fury blade movement, the sword suddenly seemed to have become stronger, and the bright light also spread everywhere, bursting out in a terrifying frenzy.
Fiona did not last too long under that condition, and he stopped soon.
His forehead was beaded with sweat.
Although he felt extremely exhausted, Fiona showed a satisfied smile.
“Just as I thought.
The Lotus Leaves Chop and the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows complemented each other well.
The agility of Lotus Leaves Chop and the freedom of the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows enhanced each other’s strength.”
Fiona recalled the practicing process just now, and he thought, “I‘ve only mastered the Alkaid, the one- star footwork of the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows.
There are seven stars in total here, and the more stars behind, the more the footwork changes.
It’ll be more complicated and delicate.
Hence, I mustn’t waste time and practice.
Just as the elder said, the Ursa Major‘s Blurred Shadows is an incomplete martial skill.
There’s more content left, but unfortunately, the booklet only recorded the seven-star footwork, and that was it.
I wonder how many stars this skill has.” Fiona looked forward to that.
Nonetheless, he only thought about it briefly, and he did not ponder on it anymore.
Rather than longing for the missing skills, it was better for Fiona to get back to reality and grasp all the content in front of him first.
Fiona did not leave the house for three days.
As he was training in the Time Warp Zone, three days might have passed in the outside world, but Fiona trained for nine days.
In the nine days, besides needing to rest, Fiona was training at all times.
Not only did he repeatedly figure out and practice the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows, but he also practiced on the Lotus Leaves Chop, the Bloodthirsty Spear Method, and the Strangulation of an Angered Dragon that he previously mastered.
Besides that, he also practiced the skills he learned on the battlefields.
After all, his current state was much better than before.
Regardless of whether it was strength, reaction, agility, or even recovery, they far surpassed the past.
Hence, the previously mastered skills were now more robust and flexible when used. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
During the nine days in the Time Warp Zone, Fiona mastered the two-star footwork, Mizar-Alcor, on the third day.
On the eighth day, he mastered the three-star footwork, the Alioth.
But Fiona felt as if he had hit a plateau for the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows from that day onward.
It was not because Fiona had poor comprehension skills, but although he knew what he should do, his body could not step on the accurate position at the right time to make the correct and powerful movements.
Fiona was puzzled.
“That’s strange.
Isn’t the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows a middle-rank Mortal Grade skill? Why do I feel as if my body has yet to reach the four-star footwork’s requirement?”
Fiona quickly thought of a possibility.
“Is the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows not a middle-rank Mortal Grade martial skill?” At the thought of this, Fiona felt that it was truly possible.
As the Lawrence family did not originally own the martial art, none of the Lawrence family members could understand it as it was incomplete too.
They felt that this martial art was a bit mysterious, but it was also pitiful to abandon it.
So, it was decided to be a middle-rank Mortal Grade skill.
Since this skill could not combine with the other Lawrence family’s martial skills, few people paid attention to it.
Fiona also suspected the Lawrence family member who brought this booklet home might not even check on it before.
Only Fiona realized the secret behind the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows.
Compared to the two other martial skills that he was practicing, Fiona was instantly stunned.
”The Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows has a higher requirement than the Lotus Leaves Chop.
Could it be that its ranking is higher than Mortal Grade, and it’s an Earth Grade skill?”
At the thought of that, Fiona was in disbelief.
Even though he could not verify Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows’ actual rank, he was confident that he had unexpectedly found a treasure this time.
