Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 537 The Direction of Skill Point Usage

Still shaken, Bevan took the water bottle and, as if drinking strong liquor, began to gulp it down.

Clear spring water flowed continuously from the corners of his mouth, completely soaking the shirt in front of him.

"Cough cough cough..."

He choked and coughed repeatedly, then hunched over, breathing heavily.

Yaro sighed softly and patted him on the shoulder.

"Bevin, don't worry, it's not a bad thing."

"The fact that you were able to sense the strange space twice in a row proves that your mental strength is different from that of ordinary people."

"Perhaps... you will be able to condense magic power tomorrow and become a true wizard apprentice."

"After becoming a wizard apprentice, your spiritual power will be converted into magic power, and there will be no more excess spiritual power floating out. Those strange spaces will no longer be able to sense your presence."

"By then, you won't need to fear strange spaces at all."

"Stay with me during this time. Even if any problems arise, I can protect you."

There are actually some lies mixed in this.

The bizarre spaces may be unable to sense the existence of wizard apprentices, but those who have already come into contact with them are not included.

If you don't know, then you're not here.

Those real experiences are the biggest anchor points in this bizarre space.

But these lies rekindled Bevin's hope.

He looked up sharply.

"really?"

“Really!” Yaro said decisively.

Having experienced childhood training, Yaro deeply understands the pain of such mental repression.

If we don't give him any hope, he might really not be able to hold on.

After all, many foolish things are just due to momentary extremism.

A glimmer of light returned to Bevin's eyes. His cheeks twitched, and his voice choked with emotion: "Teacher..."

"Alright, stop crying. You're a grown man."

Yaro laughed and cursed, then said:
"You've been through so much today, you must be exhausted. Go and rest."

Bevin wiped his eyes and forced himself to cheer up.

"Teacher, now that we've found the key factor, let's hurry up. Next, I just need to repeat the steps for purifying the poisonous salt, right?"

"Don't rush," Yaro waved his hand, turned and walked towards the bedroom, saying, "Have you noticed that your mental state is very poor right now?"

"Teacher, I can still hold on!"

"This isn't about whether you can persevere."

Yaro glanced back and explained:
"The reason you are attracted to the strange space is because you have abundant spiritual power."

"But now that you've been through so much, your mental strength has almost completely dissipated. This state will not only affect your rationality, but also reduce your ability to perceive strange spaces."

"Even if you repeat the previous experimental steps now, you will only absorb more lead poison, and you will hardly gain anything else."

"Haste makes waste. Getting some rest is what you should be doing right now."

Although Yaro did not lie, he did not tell the whole story either.

Even though Bevin is currently in poor condition, the effects of lead poisoning on the nerves can still help him unleash his full potential.

Moreover, the Giant's Shadow Space was only recently encountered, and it was precisely the time when the memory was most profound.

In this situation, if Bevin inhales lead poison, the numbing effect of the lead could push him to his limit, potentially leading him to relapse.

However, this approach poses a severe test to Bevin's consciousness and body.

This can be basically understood as:
Consciousness needs to undergo a test to determine if it will become insane; failure to do so results in 'mental illness'. The body also needs to undergo a test to determine if it will suddenly die; failure to do so means death!

No matter what, Bevan is his student, and there's no need to make him take this risk.

"Teacher, I understand."

Bevan could only nod: "Then I'll go back to my bedroom."

"No, your current situation isn't safe. You can sleep in my bedroom tonight."

"Then... teacher, what will you do?"

"I need to meditate to restore my magic power. I also need to write something later. I don't have time to sleep."

"Teacher Yaro..."

Bevin was deeply moved.

He knew in his heart that the teacher was going to keep watch for him.

"Alright, stop crying."

Yaro was now sitting on the cushion on the ground. He glanced at Bevin and said, "I'm going to meditate. You go to sleep."

Bevin was already holding on by sheer willpower, and with Yaro's explanation, he had no reason to continue. Sleepiness had already washed over him.

Without insisting, she lay down on the bed fully clothed, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she began to snore softly.

……

About half an hour later, after Yaro had largely recovered his fire magic, he stopped meditating.

In the previous battles, I didn't use much other magic; my own regeneration was enough, so there was no need to meditate specifically.

He glanced at Bevin and saw that he was sleeping soundly and there was nothing wrong with him, so he walked to the desk next to him.

He casually activated the magic candle lamp on the desk, took out a pen and paper from his spatial ring, and then deftly moved the wooden chair aside to sit down.

"I now have two skill points. One of them is reserved for 'Summon Treant Guardian', which is also for preventing danger. It can be used to add points to 'Magic Strike' in critical situations. I can't move it."

"Therefore, the only skill point we can use is another one."

"So, how should we use this skill point?"

With the help of the fully constructed "Six-Pointed Star Meditation Method" in his mind, Yaro's mental strength is growing rapidly. Basically, he only needs to wait a few more months to naturally grow into an advanced apprentice.

Even if you want to speed things up, you can only rely on potions at most, as there is no attribute called "mental power" in the system.

Moreover, Yaro has no other tricks to learn, so even if he used this extra skill point on himself, the improvement would be very limited.

"Therefore, this skill point can be used to refine my previous idea—to promote martial arts!"

If there's no trend, then create your own.

On the path of martial arts, Yaro believes he is no less capable than anyone else.

As long as the wind picks up, my strength will definitely soar to new heights!
Moreover, promoting martial arts is exactly what Yaro wants.

However, while creating a "hot trend" is the general direction, many details still need to be improved.

For example, the first question is—

How should we promote it?

Using his knowledge from his previous life, Aro immediately had an idea.

"This has caused a major news story!"

To promote something, you first need people to pay attention, which requires creating a 'news' story, a viral moment.

What is news?

As the saying goes in my past life, 'It's not news when a dog bites a person, it's news when a person bites a dog.'

Just like Yaro himself, a student of the academy, a mentor who defied the odds, is a great piece of news.
