High Martial Arts: Creating a Prodigy Character from Scratch

[Sharp Imagery: Unskilled (1%)]

Qin He looked delighted as he saw the changes on the career page.

Originally intending to study Wei Tongzhou's sculptures and figure out how to improve his own sculpting skills, he unexpectedly awakened a second martial arts will.

To be precise, it should be the prototype of the second type of martial arts imagery.

Since it has only just grasped the concept of sharpness and has not yet cultivated it, it is merely a rudimentary form of the concept of sharpness.

But for Qin He, this was an unexpected surprise.

After a while, Qin He calmed his excitement and carefully examined the effect of the rudimentary sharp image.

[Sharp Imagery]: Where the mind's sharpness points, nothing is insurmountable.

This is the ultimate in thinness and sharpness, not pursuing power, speed, or skill, but only the concept of an infinitely close contact area.

This is one of the weak imagery related to swords: the imagery of "sharpness".

Compared to the dichotomous concept of the imagery of "cutting," the imagery of "sharpness" pursues ultimate sharpness.

When a martial artist senses a sharp image, what comes to mind is not the light of a sword, nor the sound of the wind, but rather—the 'chill' of the moment when the fingertips lightly touch the blade, and the smooth feeling of the blade cutting through an object 'without any resistance'.

That's the 'sharpness' created when an object's edge is so thin that it cuts through the air, light, and everything else—that's the essence of sharpness.

"Excellent martial arts conception. Combined with the slashing conception, my strength will definitely reach a new level!" Qin He's eyes shone brightly, and he couldn't hide the smile on his lips.

Undoubtedly, the imagery of sharpness and the imagery of cutting are a perfect match.

If one can master the imagery of sharpness and combine it with the imagery of slashing when using sword techniques, one will surely be able to unleash unimaginable power.

If an ordinary enemy appeared in front of Qin He, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand even one move from him.

This delighted Qin He, and he became even more satisfied with the sharp imagery.

After a while, Qin He calmed his excited emotions and looked at the career page again.

Because he discovered that two properties were undergoing some strange changes.

【Cut into Imagery: Initial Sensation and Understanding (0.05%→4.85%)】

[Sharp Metal Sword Technique: Minor Success (7.97%→14.42%)]

Qin He spent the entire day in the Wanxianglou workshop. Apart from meditating and cultivating once in front of Wei Tongzhou to break through, he spent the rest of the time learning carving techniques.

From this perspective, the progress of cutting through imagery and swordsmanship should be stagnant.

However, while checking the initial attributes of the Sharp Imagery, Qin He inadvertently discovered that the progress of both the Slicing Imagery and the Sharp Metal Sword Technique had undergone certain changes.

"Could it be that practicing carving techniques can also improve one's imagery for cutting and swordsmanship?"

Qin He had a flash of inspiration and thought of a possibility, and his face showed excitement.

Practicing carving techniques = a dual improvement in both the ability to capture the essence of an image and the skill of sharp metal swordsmanship.

The possibility is extremely high!

Because the process of practicing carving techniques also requires the use of imagery and swordsmanship, otherwise it would be impossible to cut the raw ore.

In some ways, carving is a job that requires both physical strength and technical skill.

It was precisely for this reason that, while practicing carving techniques, Qin He unknowingly also improved his imagery and swordsmanship.

This also makes sense, since Xu Yunxiu had said she would introduce him to a high-paying job that would greatly benefit his swordsmanship.

"That's it, that must be it!"

The more Qin He thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was correct.

This made Qin He very happy.

I never imagined that practicing carving techniques would have such benefits. It can actually achieve three things at once: improving carving skills, enhancing the power of imagery, and improving swordsmanship.

From this perspective, he cannot give up the path of becoming a sculptor no matter what.

On the other hand, now that we have discovered the benefits of practicing carving techniques, we can use this method to combine meditation and sword practice time for carving practice in the future.

In this way, Qin He can save half the time and use that time to cultivate the rudimentary form of the Sharp Image, allowing both images to progress together.

As for martial arts training, since practicing carving techniques does not involve this aspect, martial arts training will continue as usual.

Qin He had a clear mind and quickly grasped the current situation.

With this thought in mind, Qin He said no more and returned to his cultivation.

Qin He didn't finish his evening cultivation until late at night.

[Occupation: Martial Arts Student, Sculpture Apprentice]

【Severing the Illusion: Sensation and Initial Understanding (4.85%)】

[Sharp Imagery: Beginner (1% → 3.9%)]

[Xingyi Piquan: Minor Success (10.6%→24.6%)]

[Sharp Metal Sword Technique: Minor Success (14.42%→15.87%)]

The connection between carving techniques and swordsmanship was an unexpected discovery; Qin He was unaware of this effect.

Therefore, Qin He did not bring back the carving knife and raw ore, so he could not cultivate in this way.

Left with no other choice, Qin He could only resort to the old method of practicing swordsmanship using the standard longswords from the weapons classroom.

Of course, this is on the condition that Wei Tongzhou agrees to let him bring back the carving knife and raw ore.

Theoretically speaking, this is not feasible, since it is the property of Wanxiang Tower, even if Qin He's training materials are just scraps.

However, how would you know the outcome if you didn't try? After all, Qin He wasn't trying to take it over for himself; he just wanted to spend more time practicing.

Qin He plans to sound out Wei Tongzhou tomorrow to see if he will agree to let him take it back to school for practice.

"I seem to have forgotten to buy weapons."

Qin He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered something important.

He went to Vientiane Tower today, intending to purchase a new weapon.

However, Qin He broke through his cultivation level, and Wei Tongzhou took him on as a sculpture apprentice, keeping him busy learning carving techniques and other things.

Qin He was so busy that he had completely forgotten about buying weapons until he was practicing his swordsmanship just now.

There's nothing I can do but try again tomorrow.

In addition, Qinhe made another special discovery.

He had just tried to cultivate the rudimentary form of the Sharp Imagery, and unexpectedly, after one round of meditation, the progress of the Sharp Imagery surged to 3.9%.

In total, one round of meditation practice increases the progress by a full 2.8%.

Such an astonishing growth rate immediately shocked Qin He.

A little over a month ago, he had just grasped the rudimentary form of the imagery of cutting and severing. Each time he meditated, his progress increased by only 0.1% or 0.2%.

Unexpectedly, cultivating the second martial arts conception increased the speed of improvement by more than twenty times.

This situation is clearly abnormal.

Qin He wasn't sure whether this was because his realm had improved, and with the ability to draw inferences from one instance to another, it was easier for him to cultivate similar types of imagery.

Or perhaps it was because he had accumulated a large number of learning-related terms, and the combined effects of these terms significantly improved his learning efficiency.

For a moment, Qin He didn't know which reason it was, or whether it was a combination of both.

But in either case, it is undoubtedly a good thing for Qin He.

When he comprehends new imagery prototypes in the future, he will be able to master them quickly, without having to spend more than a month cultivating the prototype of the cutting imagery.
