Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 15, Third Tier, Quasi-Knight Livi (Please continue reading)

"Stormwind, isn't that the city of my father's Stormwind Territory?"

Levi muttered to himself, Green's description perfectly matched Levi's imagination of wizards: eerie, powerful, and mysterious!

"However, it's also possible that Green has really gone mad."

"In any case, the sea area near Stormwind might be a clue for me."

Li Wei silently noted this down, then flipped through some other travelogues, but none of them had anything to do with wizards, and he couldn't find any useful clues. So he burned the travelogues.

"If only we had the internet."

Li Wei sighed with emotion.

He then devoted himself to cultivation, and he was very close to breaking through to the third level of the breathing technique. This month, he would be able to break through and become a quasi-knight.

During this period, Li Xiuwei would visit the bear enclosure of the three bear cubs every day in his spare time to check on their health.

If all three bear cubs survive, I will have three knight-level Northern Giant Bears, which will be unique in the entire kingdom.

At that time, he wouldn't need to ride a warhorse anymore; he could ride the Northern Giant Bear directly and even have a set of exclusive armor made for the Northern Giant Bear.

Just imagining the scene of riding a giant armored bear and rampaging across the battlefield filled Li Wei with excitement and exhilaration.

It reminded him of a scene from a fantasy movie he watched in his previous life called "The Golden Compass".

This is the kind of mount that fits the style of a sword and magic world!

Li Wei put in a lot of effort to ensure that these three little guys grew up healthy.

Three militiamen were specially assigned to take care of the cubs around the clock, feeding them fish, wolf meat, venison, goat milk, cow milk, and occasionally some vegetables, to prevent them from developing poorly or dying due to a lack of certain elements during their growth period.

Li Wei interacts with the bear cubs every day, using the most traditional and effective method to tame these three wild bears: to become familiar with them.

In fact, many mammals, no matter how wild they are, can gradually develop a bond with each other if they are raised from a young age.

Li Wei also specifically purchased a book on animal training, "The Clown Circus: A Guide to Animal Training," which included works by scholars from the Kingdom who studied the Northern Giant Bear.

Then, to Li Wei's surprise, after reading the book "The Clown Circus Animal Taming Basics," a new skill appeared on Li Wei's proficiency panel:

Li Wei —————

Black Serpent Breathing Technique: Level 2 (4899/5000)

Golden Cross Slash: Tier 3 (56/10000), Special Effect: Advanced Vibration

Beast Taming: Tier 1 (66/1000)

……

"This works?"

Li Wei was dumbfounded. He had never understood the criteria for skills to be included in the proficiency panel. The only thing he was certain of was that combat skills and breathing techniques could be included; whether other life skills were included or not depended entirely on the proficiency panel's mood.

Regardless, gaining an extra skill made Li Wei very happy.

Moreover, this skill is a practical one, which can be described as a lifeline for me right now.

To verify his suspicions, Levi began having Sir Fred buy him books on animal taming from all over the country.

Karen Animal Taming Manual

The Royal Circus Animal Training Notes

The methods of eagle training among the Gaoshan people.

In short, he began to buy all sorts of animal training books at high prices.

You should know that in this era, books are very expensive.

However, in order to gain experience points, Li Wei had no choice but to take out a portion of his most precious savings.

This puzzled Sir Fred.

"Young Master, are you trying to become an animal tamer again?"

Knight Fred was both amused and exasperated.

"No, Lord Fred, I just want to tame those three bear cubs the right way. These little guys are too wild. Every time I go over there, they roar at me," Li Wei said earnestly.

"Alright, but we don't have much money left in our account, only sixty-eight gold coins," Sir Fred said with a shrug.

"Don't worry, Sir Fred, I know what I'm doing," Li Wei said.

Collecting books takes time, and during this time Li Wei continues to use his old-fashioned methods to tame animals, the most important of which is the lure of food. Which bear could resist the aroma of roasted venison covered in honey?

The three little guys were still quite fierce towards Li Wei, but they also ate his food with complete confidence.

For a time, Li Wei even suspected that he was playing a Pokémon game.

Seven days later, Li Wei's breathing technique finally broke through to the third level. He felt his entire body was filled with power. When practicing the breathing technique, his breathing rate was far higher than usual. A large amount of oxygen was inhaled, and the oxygen content in his blood increased sharply. His physical qualities improved explosively. In the cold winter, wisps of white steam appeared on Li Wei's body. He exhaled three white smokes from his mouth and nose. His muscles and bones throbbed, like a sleeping cat emitting a slight engine roar.

After more than a year of training, Li Wei finally reached the standard of a quasi-knight.

He opened the proficiency panel.

Levi Snack —————

Black Snake Breathing Technique: Level 3 (1/10000).

……

"Finally, I've reached Tier 3."

Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief. Next, he would continue to hone his body until he reached his peak condition. When he reached the third stage of perfection, he would condense his own life seed and become a formal knight!

"However, the quasi-knight is already a watershed moment. More than 90% of those who practice breathing techniques are blocked at this threshold, and only 1% of them have the potential to break through and become a formal knight."

Li Wei stretched his muscles and bones, feeling the explosive power within his body.

Now, I don't need armor; I can still kill the five-headed mountain wolf with my sword skills.

After becoming a quasi-knight, his physical abilities improved in all aspects, probably more than three times that of an average adult male, especially his skin and flesh.

Li Wei lifted his shirt, revealing his rock-solid eight-pack abs. His bronze skin gleamed, and he punched his stomach with a bit of force.

"It hurts a little, but it's okay."

"After all, my strength is several times that of an average adult male."

"If it were an ordinary person, using their fists and feet in a normal fight, without attacking vital points, it would be difficult for them to cause any damage to me now. This is the power of the Black Serpent Breathing Technique."

This is only a quasi-knight; what would it take to become a full-fledged knight?

Li Wei estimated that he should have five times the physical strength of an ordinary person as soon as he stepped into the ranks, similar to that of Fred, a knight who had been a formal knight for a long time.

The power of an excellent breathing technique is then evident.

To become a great knight like his father, one must possess physical abilities ten times greater than ordinary people—he's practically a monster.
