I Can Give Talent

Chapter 4 – Fiery Trailblazer



Leyvi arrived in front of the 'Fire' section. There were quite a few selections among the martial skills.

There were even martial skills for the Foundation Building cultivator among them, but obviously, he won't be able to learn them right now because the minimum requirement was to reach the Foundation Building realm first.

Leyvi already knew that martial skills that could be learned during the Qi refinement realm were not necessarily worse than the ones that required the Foundation Building realm. It just means that the martial skill has a lower starting point.

Sometimes, a martial skill that started from the Qi refinement realm might have a higher endpoint than the ones learned starting from the Foundation Building realm. It all depends on the talent of the cultivator practicing the martial skill.

For example, there was once a cultivator who cultivated the most simple martial skill available here, Fire Fist to the extreme. The Fire Fist cultivator managed to win fights against other cultivators with higher realms easily.

All the opponent's attacks were destroyed by the might of the Fire Fist. It was all about how far you can go with the martial skill, just like cultivation. 

Even if you already learned the skill to peak at what was written down, a genius might be able to go further than that and create a stronger version of the martial skill.

While reminiscing about the legend of the Fire Fist, Leyvi also saw a few other martial skills that caught his attention, such as Fire Bullet martial skill, Heat Sword Art martial skill, and Inferno Body martial skill.

These were all martial skills with some legend behind them. Unfortunately, he doesn't have enough contribution points to exchange for them right now. Due to the legend, the price for these martial skills was not cheap. 

He only had 167 contribution points right now, enough for 3 bottles of low-grade qi refining pills. Each of the martial skills that caught his attention just now cost at least 500 contribution points.

Leyvi sighed, "There's only one martial skill here that I can buy." He took the only martial skill that he could buy right now, which cost 150 contribution points, and started to read the description on the jade slip.

Fiery Trailblazer. A martial skill that allows users to fight with fiery kicks and move with fiery steps. Each battle will leave behind a fiery trail that will intimidate the enemies from chasing the user. Currently, it is only suitable to be practiced until the peak of the Qi refinement realm.

"Damn! No wonder it's cheap." Leyvi was disappointed that the martial skill could only be practiced until the peak of the Qi refinement realm. He was in the middle stage of the Qi refinement realm now, so he hesitated a bit.

Leyvi felt that there was no other choice, so he decided to go with Fiery Trailblazer martial skill. "Beggars can't be choosers," he murmured. 

Leyvi calmed himself and thought that it would still take many years for him to reach the peak of the Qi refinement realm anyway. So, it's not really a big deal. He might be way richer at that point and could get his hands on better martial skills. 

Leyvi went down the stairs and walked toward Elder Ken with the jade slip of Fiery Trailblazer martial skill. He then put the jade slip on the counter and said, "Elder Ken, I choose this one."

The sleepy Elder Ken looked up and saw Leyvi's black-colored eyes, and then looked down again at the jade slip.

"Fiery Trailblazer, 150 contribution points, give me your ID card." Said Elder Ken emotionlessly. 

Leyvi gave his ID card to Elder Ken and waited patiently while Elder Ken processed the fees and removed the restrictions on the jade slip so that he could obtain the full contents later. 

After Elder Ken was done with all the processes, he gave back the jade slip and ID card to Leyvi and gave him a final reminder. 

"Make sure not to teach anyone else what you learned from the jade slip. If the sect finds out, you will be sent to the Law and Order Hall to be punished." Said Elder Ken sternly. A hint of emotion can be seen from Elder Ken for the first time.

"This disciple remembers." Replied Leyvi with seriousness. After giving Elder Ken a small bow, he left the Scripture Hall right away.

While walking back to his house, Leyvi inserted a sliver of his qi into his ID card and confirmed that there were only 17 contribution points left. He really felt like a beggar this time. So poor. He wondered how many contribution points Anda had right now.

"No, no, no." Leyvi shook his head. He should be the one to provide for his wife, not leech off her. Getting some benefits from her alchemy skill was fine because he gave that talent to her. Now Leyvi wondered how much talent Anda had.

Leyvi arrived at his house half an hour later. He then entered the house, went to the cultivation room, and started sitting cross-legged in the middle.

He immediately took out his Fiery Trailblazer martial skill jade slip, then, a sliver of qi was inserted into the jade slip. A tiny beam of light came out from jade slip and shot toward Leyvi.

A series of information regarding Fiery Trailblazer martial skills suddenly appeared in Leyvi's mind. This lasted for a few seconds. After Leyvi processed the information, he opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and let out a big air. 

"So this martial skill comes with its own movement skill and uses the variations of the movement to attack the enemies." Leyvi was quite surprised by the martial skill. Usually, martial skills and movement skills were separate.

Thinking about it again, it should be normal because this was a martial skill to specialize in kicks, and users need to move properly to get a lot of power behind the kicks. Leyvi immediately realized.

After a while, Leyvi grasped everything in the information, and he was ready to start his training. He went out of the house and walked to the backyard.

When he was about to start his training, he spotted a small black monkey with stripes of white fur around the face. Leyvi silently moved toward the small monkey and when he reached a few meters away, he dashed full force forward and caught the small monkey.

The small monkey immediately screeched and tried to get away desperately. Unfortunately, it was just a normal small monkey, so it could not get away from Leyvi, a cultivator.

"Relax, small monkey, don't panic. I'm not here to harm you." Leyvi tried to calm the monkey as if it could understand him. 

The small monkey continued to struggle for a while, and a few minutes later it accepted its fate. It couldn't run away from this human.

"Good, you have calmed down, right? I'm here not to eat you, but I'm going to give you a gift. No, two gifts!" Leyvi was still talking to the monkey as if it could understand him.

"Hmm, you are a male monkey, and you have white stripes around your face, how do I call you." Leyvi thought for a while and decided to just give a random name. It was just for an experiment anyway.

"I'll just call you Stripey! Stripey, I am going to give you two talents and see how it goes." Stripey looked at Leyvi confused. What is this dumb human talking about?

"I want my toy.." while still holding to the small monkey, Leyvi said the cursed words in a nearly inaudible voice. A menu immediately appeared in front of him.

[Talent Bead |Level 1| EXP 5/100]

[Talent list] Steal, Stealth, Sturdy

[Recipient: Anda | Alchemy | 90/100]

[Host benefit: Fire Affinity]

Leyvi immediately noticed the 5 experience points on the menu and smiled.

"Looks like Anda has started refining the pills. My panda wife is so hardworking. I hope there would be some middle-grade qi refining pills." The small monkey accepted his bad ending, as the dumb human was still talking nonsense. 

"Give Steal and Stealth talents to Stripey," said Leyvi. Leyvi wanted to see if he could give multiple talents to someone. He also wanted to see how stealth and stealing talents can complement each other.

[Talent Bead |Level 1| EXP 5/100]

[Talent list] Sturdy

[Recipient: Anda | Alchemy | 90/100]

[Recipient: Stripey | Steal and Stealth | 0/100]

[Host benefit: Fire Affinity, Tree Climbing Expert]

Leyvi looked at the menu and was shocked. "I can climb trees like monkeys now?" Leyvi was not entirely sure if this was a good benefit or not.

What if people saw him jumping in the trees like monkeys? He would lose face. Panda girl would leave him. No, maybe the panda girl would join him. She's a panda, after all. Leyvi chuckled.

At the end of the day, the small monkey was just a normal monkey, not some demonic monkey or something more amazing. He can't really expect to get a godly benefit. That would be cheating.

Leyvi looked again at the menu. "0 points of feeling toward me. That was expected." Leyvi nodded in agreement. It would be weird if Stripey suddenly had a lot of feeling points for him. He would kick the small monkey far away.

"Alright, you can go now. Make sure to steal a lot and don't get caught." Stripey was let go by Leyvi. He was confused. He looked at the forest behind him and looked at Leyvi again, hesitating. This dumb human is not hungry anymore?

"Go!" Leyvi gestured with his hand. Stripey took a last glance at Leyvi and then immediately ran away into the mountain forest.

Leyvi looked again at the menu and was surprised.

[Talent Bead |Level 1| EXP 5/100]

[Talent list] Sturdy

[Recipient: Anda | Alchemy | 90/100]

[Recipient: Stripey | Steal and Stealth | 20/100]

[Host benefit: Fire Affinity, Tree Climbing Expert]

"Hahaha! Even a monkey started to like me because of how merciful I am!" Leyvi's ego suddenly went up.

After laughing out loud like an idiot, Leyvi went back to his backyard to really start his training this time.

"I don't want my toy.." Leyvi closed the damn menu.
