BTTH Adding Points To Become Stronger

In the not-so-large space, there was a pile of gold coins, with seven or eight jade bottles scattered around, all empty.

Among them, the most conspicuous were the scrolls piled up like small mountains.

Qi Methods or Dou Techniques?

The moment Lin Xiu saw those things, a burst of joy surged in his heart. He never expected that the ring from the skeleton would actually hold so many treasures.

Due to the presence of others around, despite the excitement in his heart, he did not take out those scrolls.

Before long, the day's assessment ended, and some students came over to notify and tally.

They would stay in Te Lan City for three days for recruitment, then head to Jia Nan Academy. During this period, Lin Xiu and the others could choose to go home or wait in the square.

Tents were pitched on the square, serving as temporary resting places.

Lin Xiu chose to stay on the square.

The student tallied information about the practice of Dou Techniques. Lin Xiu had never encountered Dou Techniques before, so he curiously asked for the reason.

The other person informed Lin Xiu that every year after new students enroll, there will be an entrance assessment, which will determine their class placement.

The assessment is quite simple, defeating more opponents of the same level using Ability will result in being placed in a higher class.

Often, students in these classes have outstanding talents, and they can enjoy a certain degree of focus in terms of cultivation resources. The teaching instructors are also more formidable, sometimes even including inner academy elders.

"Senior, what about someone like me who has never learned Dou Techniques?" Lin Xiu used to be a family servant and had never had the opportunity to learn Dou Techniques.

"It will take some time to reach Jia Nan Academy. During this process, the mentors will teach some Dou Techniques along the way, and you can strive to learn," he said encouragingly, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

Because mastering Dou Techniques is not easy, students who have not been exposed to Dou Techniques can only learn Low Level Dou Techniques in a short time, and they may not even be able to use them proficiently.

Sometimes, being slow in one step means being slow in every step.

At night, after dinner, Lin Xiu crawled into the tent to rest. Besides him, there were three other people, dressed plainly, evidently not well-off.

Without joining their conversation, Lin Xiu took out several scrolls he had seen in the ring and spread them out.

"Yellow Rank Low Level Dou Technique - Gravel Palm, Yellow Rank Low Level Dou Technique - Strong Kick, Yellow Rank Low Level Dou Technique - Strong Fist, Yellow Rank Low Level Dou Technique..."

He looked at seven or eight in a row, all of them were Dou Techniques, not a single Qi Method, and none of the Dou Techniques were above Mid Level.

"Damn it, is the owner of this ring sick?" Lin Xiu was almost speechless.

Yellow Rank Low Level Dou Techniques like these, who has the time to collect this junk?

He didn't give up, spent some time going through all the scrolls, and there really wasn't a single Yellow Rank Mid Level.

These scrolls cover everything from fist techniques, palm techniques, to body techniques.

It seems the owner of the ring wants to find creative inspiration by studying low-level Dou Techniques and create his own Dou Techniques.

Thought it was a treasure, but it turned out to be a pile of garbage.

In the next two days of enrollment, Lin Xiu followed others and learned two Dou Techniques from the Academy instructors, namely Splitting Wind Palm and Rhino Collision.

Both Dou Techniques are not of high level, they are both Yellow Rank Low Level.

The instructor probably adheres to the idea that low-level techniques are easier to master, so he tries to teach simpler Dou Techniques as much as possible.

After everything was prepared, the Jia Nan Academy instructor led the newly enrolled students away.

In the crowd, Lin Xiu looked back at the city, as if bidding farewell to the former servant that was no different than a slave and the original body.

After traveling for two days, Lin Xiu unexpectedly encountered another team of Jia Nan Academy's enrollment team. After learning about that team's information, he finally had a rough understanding of the timeline of the Dou Po World.

That team was led by the instructor Ruo Lin, heading to Wu Tan City for enrollment.

Lin Xiu just glanced casually and recognized Xiao Xun'er immediately, there was no way not to, her temperament was particularly outstanding.

On the first day of contact, someone from Lin Xiu's team went to provoke Xiao Xun'er. He silently mourned for the other party in his heart.

Because at this time, Xiao Xun'er was separated from Xiao Yan and she was in a bad mood. There was a high probability of getting beaten up if provoked, and the instructor wouldn't blame her.

After all, a sixteen-year-old 6 Star Dou Practitioner, such strength was enough to prove Xiao Xun'er's terrifying talent, and the Academy favored people with such high talents.

Early in the morning, after Qi cultivation, Lin Xiu walked out of the tent to the open space to practice Dou Techniques.

After several practice sessions, Splitting Wind Palm and Rhino Collision, Lin Xiu has already grasped them. In the "Ability" section, he can see their names.

Adhering to the idea that accumulating experience can earn Attribute Points, Lin Xiu has been working hard in practice.

He couldn't compare his background with Xiao Yan's, but he had a panel, and effort always pays off.

Splitting Wind Palm is divided into three styles: downward chop, diagonal chop, and horizontal chop, emphasizing speed.

After practice, Lin Xiu has practiced it to level 2, and mastered it like a knife, when chopping down it seems to be able to cut through the air, emitting a low whistling sound.

Rhino Collision is said to be derived from a Magic Beast similar to a rhinoceros, focusing on eruption. When practiced to perfection, it can unleash a power not inferior to Yellow Rank Mid-Level Dou Techniques.

Lin Xiu has also practiced it to level 2.

With the advancement of two Dou Techniques, Lin Xiu felt subtle changes within himself, such as increased speed and some improvement in physical strength.

His Constitution, originally at 5, has increased by 1 point during these days of practicing Dou Techniques.

[Constitution: 5——6]

"Mining has reached level 4, with 1 Attribute Point left. Along with the two Dou Techniques upgrades, I now have 3 Attribute Points."

Feeling the muscles ache from practice, Lin Xiu stopped to rest, allocating 1 Attribute Point to Constitution. The feeling of exhaustion quickly subsided.

He glanced at his panel.

[Name: Lin Xiu]

[Age: 17]

[Realm: Dou Disciple, 8th stage (32/80)]

[Constitution: 7]

[Spirit: 5]

[Aptitude: 10]

[Ability: Basic Qi Cultivation lv5 (70/500), Making Horse Food lv5, Horse Training lv4, Mining lv4, Splitting Wind Palm lv2 (120/200), Rhino Collision lv2 (120/200)]

[Attribute Points: 2]

Acquiring experience in Dou Techniques isn't very difficult, with most practice sessions yielding values between 5 and 10.

Compared to several other Abilities, there is a significant gap in experience.

"It seems that those low-level Dou Techniques in the ring are not entirely useless. Low-level implies that the entry difficulty is low, so they can be used to earn Attribute Points and then be allocated to higher-level Dou Techniques."

Because there are teachers and other students around, Lin Xiu did not practice the Dou Techniques in the ring. His actions were not a secret to the instructors, and practicing would certainly attract attention.

In fact, Lin Xiu was unaware that he had already caught the attention of the leading instructor.

"What's his name? He's almost practicing the Dou Techniques you taught every day. Such diligent students are rare at Jia Nan Academy."

Ruo Lin sat beside another instructor, trying to observe everyone.

Perisitance is rara, especially when practicing Dou Techniques that are only at the Yellow Rank Low Level.

Many students join Jia Nan Academy, and some of them are aiming for high-level Dou Techniques and Qi Methods. They often don't pay much attention to low-level Dou Techniques.

"Lin Xiu. I've been observing him for a while now. His talent in Qi cultivation is average, but he learns Dou Techniques very quickly."

After teaching Dou Techniques, that instructor has been observing as well. Although Lin Xiu's talent in Qi cultivation is not high, his progress in practicing Dou Techniques far exceeds others.

In just a few days, Splitting Wind Palm and Rhino Collision have already shown some charm.

"You can try teaching him something else. Qi cultivation talent is only for the early stages. Learning a better Qi Method after becoming a Dou Practitioner can make up for that slight time difference."

Ruo Lin's suggestion made the instructor nod. He indeed had similar thoughts, considering it as a kind of test.
