Chapter 471: Chapter 234: Skill Refinement! The Path to Breaking Through Level 10!

Dark World, Basement

The indoor scene is spacious, with all kinds of household furnishings fully equipped. There is even a dedicated area for training and enhancing skills, looking rather serious.

Ye Mingqiu looked at the basement and exclaimed in surprise, "Not bad, I thought you were setting up that kind of basement."

"Idiot."

Tang Ruobing gave him a punch on the back, saying, "Do I seem like that kind of person to you?"

"I was talking about a minimalist style. What are you thinking? Do you have some special ideas?" Ye Mingqiu turned around and asked.

"...."

Tang Ruobing was momentarily speechless.

Ye Mingqiu turned back with a smile, having already roughly guessed Tang Ruobing’s plans and thoughts.

This guy isn’t all bad, but he clearly has dreams. Even when bringing people here, it’s about living a life he likes in his own way, not just pure restraint.

On the other hand, from the layout of the basement, she seemed quite confident in her own strength, restricting only the exit but not resistance.

The quality of the furniture is also quite good, probably anticipating possible situations. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"By the way, didn’t you say you wanted to practice with the Old Beast Monarch? There’s a field here, and it’s very sturdy, unable to be destroyed by Spiritualists below Tier Three." Tang Ruobing said proudly.

"Not bad, not bad."

Ye Mingqiu praised him a couple of times, then turned to look at the Old Beast Monarch beside him and said, "If possible, please instruct me here."

"No problem."

The Old Beast Monarch showed a bright smile.

....

Not long after, the Old Beast Monarch stood on one side of the arena, holding the Great Sword Tang Ruobing gave him, weighing it in his hands to feel the texture.

’The feel upon grasping it is nice. It appears to be of high quality. This guy isn’t simple either.’

The Old Beast Monarch silently mused, his Great Sword was on the verge of being scrapped, sent by Young Master Lu to get repaired, but the chances of successful repair weren’t high, only trying to fix it as best as possible.

"Hoo~"

He exhaled gently, posing in a full battle stance, looking at Ye Mingqiu in the distance, his eyes flashing with a serious look.

His innate perception from the Beast King told him that Ye Mingqiu at this moment was extremely powerful, and in every way an all-around threat, giving him an extremely dangerous feeling, possibly leading to a quick death if he becomes an enemy.

’You’ve grown too.’

The Old Beast Monarch thought with satisfaction.

On the other side, Ye Mingqiu held the Blood Spear, posing in a combat stance, the Blood Spear’s point no longer sharp, and the spear’s curve losing its edges. This was the Blood Spear reducing its Attack Power and Sharpness by its own will, to allow Ye Mingqiu to enjoy the fight with his opponent more.

"Hoo~"

Ye Mingqiu exhaled a breath of stale air, the feeling changing significantly after fighting with the Old Beast Monarch again after quite some time.

Previously, when facing the Old Beast Monarch, it was like confronting an overwhelming mountain, impossible to conquer no matter how much effort was exerted, only watching helplessly as the mountain pressed down.

Now, however, the Old Beast Monarch appeared to him like eerie mist, unable to defeat him in speed or power, but gradually showing his edge in technique.

Let me witness your strength!

"Bang!"

Ye Mingqiu suddenly stepped forward, rapidly appearing in front of the Old Beast Monarch, the Blood Spear thrusting forward swiftly. Innate perception showed numerous stances ready to strike on the Old Beast Monarch’s body, causing him to frown tightly.

So hard to predict!

This guy’s combat instincts are likely off the charts, responding differently to various situations with absurdly numerous countermeasures when the situation is not fully determined.

"Clang!"

The Great Sword deflected the Blood Spear, with the sword and spear colliding and skillfully guiding it to the side, ingeniously creating an opening for Ye Mingqiu.

But this trap and stratagem were predicted by Ye Mingqiu’s [Innate Perception], with counter-measures surfacing in his mind within a short time, promptly wielding the Blood Spear along with the Great Sword, ensuring not to fall into a disadvantage.

’Foreknowledge ability?’

The Old Beast Monarch frowned, being extremely adept at close combat techniques, easily discerning that Ye Mingqiu’s current actions were countermeasures made through seeing his attack path, rather than just pure opposition.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!... "

Several clashes of weapons resounded, with the Old Beast Monarch’s expression growing increasingly serious, staring intently at Ye Mingqiu and shouting, "What are you thinking? What exactly do you want to do?"

"Me?"

Ye Mingqiu questioned in confusion, not comprehending why the Old Beast Monarch was so angry, when he had already restrained his Power in battle, seemingly fighting pretty well.

"I know you excel at anticipating and foreseeing, and this ability is extremely handy in combat, but excessively relying on this power will surely confine your skills to a certain range, unable to surpass the limits."

The Old Beast Monarch continued, "Your stance in wielding weapons against the opposition arises only because you can anticipate their moves, not because you desire to attack this way, not because you believe this is the best approach. Continuing to fight this way, your Skill Level will not advance."

"...."

Ye Mingqiu was momentarily silent, gradually understanding the Old Beast Monarch’s words, acknowledging on some level that what he said was true.
