My talent panel can be increased

Although he really wanted to ask directly and once and for all, he still didn't dare to ask. If his guess was true, he couldn't imagine what would happen next.

"Oh, it's okay. There will be many more opportunities to learn like this in the future. Study hard and don't waste the time I've invested in you."

As she spoke, Tang Ruobing turned around and used facial recognition to open the door to her private training room, waving to invite Ye Mingqiu to train together.

Looking at the open door, Ye Mingqiu suddenly realized something: he seemed to spend less time training in his own private training room than in this guy's private training room, and this phenomenon might continue for a very long time.

He fell into a brief silence, then erupted with an unprecedented desire to become stronger, his eyes burning like fire, and an angry roar in his heart.

No way! This absolutely won't do! I'm going to get my revenge later and bring her to my private training room to give her a good lesson!

Before that, let's drain her dry with studying!

"I'd like to learn some meditation techniques, but I haven't found anything useful online. Do you have any meditation techniques you can teach?" Ye Mingqiu asked directly.

"Meditation."

Tang Ruobing looked troubled. She gently rested her chin on one hand and replied, "Yes, I do have one, but it's my family's meditation method. You're not my family, so I can't teach it to you. Meditation methods are different from general techniques, so I really can't help you with this."

"oh, I understand now."

Ye Mingqiu nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.

While the basic universal spells used at level 1 in the early stages are valuable, they are nothing to large families. Every family has them, the only difference is the quantity. It doesn't matter if a little bit of this knowledge is leaked out.

But meditation

This involves a more in-depth aspect.

Chapter 68 General Spells! Mastered!

"Are there any other ways to learn meditation?" Ye Mingqiu asked.

“I’ll develop it myself, study in the spirit world, or become an apprentice to a powerful magic user. These are roughly the ways to do it. It’s still quite difficult to master meditation techniques,” Tang Ruobing replied.

This is more than just a little difficult.

That's incredibly difficult!

Developing meditation methods is not something ordinary people can do. People capable of developing meditation methods are unlikely to lack them, since how could they possibly develop a meditation method if they don't even understand its basic principles? Does someone who understands the basic principles of meditation but doesn't know any meditation methods at all exist?

Seeking knowledge in the spirit world is like trying your luck to find a world with a highly developed magical system, and then finding a native who knows meditation to learn from. Even so, it is still very difficult.

Meditation techniques are also very valuable to the indigenous people. They wouldn't just hand over their meditation techniques casually. Building goodwill and completing tasks requires a great deal of time and effort, and there's no guarantee of success.

As for finding a powerful magic user to become an apprentice to...

That's not very realistic. Ye Mingqiu isn't a magic major. He just wants to improve his learning efficiency of magic skills through meditation. Finding a magic expert to be his master but not majoring in magic is a bit much.

"Then I guess I'll have to give up on treatment," Ye Mingqiu sighed.

“Learning and mastering meditation techniques will take some time. The time spent learning is not worth the strength gains you can get during that time. It’s okay if you don’t learn it for now. Let’s learn some general techniques first,” Tang Ruobing comforted her.

"Ah."

"I found three general spells: Wind Walk to increase movement speed, Illumination to provide vision in the dark, and Healing to restore the status of teammates."

Tang Ruobing took out a brand-new notebook from her backpack, turned to the first page, and handed it to Ye Mingqiu, saying, "I have finished copying down the basic spells. There are explanations on the side. Try to learn them first. If you can't, then come to me for help."

"it is good."

Ye Mingqiu took the notebook, looked at the beautiful handwriting and standard images, and deduced the basic structure of the Windwalking Technique in his mind. At the same time, he used his existing knowledge to calculate whether the spiritual energy that needed to be injected at each moment was exactly the same as the amount given by the technique.

In short, universal spells are simple, foolproof spellcasting. Only mages can use universal spells, not magic masters.

A true mage must learn advanced spells, constantly adjusting parameters and performing real-time calculations based on their knowledge and the changing battlefield.

For example, adjusting spell models in real time and calculating when and how much psionic energy to inject can enable spells to achieve the desired results, rather than simply wasting psionic energy and power, resulting in low psionic energy utilization.

To become a mage, one must not only possess a large amount of knowledge but also have strong calculation ability. However, the calculation process is usually completed before the battle, and the calculated spells are released directly during the battle.

Normally, everyone looks down on the Earth Dog Technique, but in actual combat, everyone uses the Earth Dog Technique because it's convenient.

Without learning the knowledge of advanced spells, learning one spell is just one spell. Mastering advanced spell techniques means mastering one spell, which is equivalent to mastering several or even dozens of different spells. It may even be possible to directly deduce new patterns and create the most suitable spell for oneself.

This is also why Tang Ruobing said that the same skill cannot be used on Feng Xinglie a second time.

Top-tier magic geniuses analyze and counter targeted spells they've encountered, then use their knowledge and abilities to nullify them.

However, this process takes time, requires thought and calculation, and is almost impossible to crack in practice.

After a few minutes

Ye Mingqiu obtained the answer from his mental test. Looking at the parameters on his notebook, he thought to himself: "It's about the same as what I got from my mental test. Basic general techniques are still easy to crack. To master advanced techniques, one must have a thorough understanding of all the knowledge related to the technique. The higher the level of the technique, the more knowledge one needs to master."

My knowledge of the legal system wasn't wasted; it's still somewhat useful.

He closed the book, walked to the open space, slowly raised his arm, and began to cast a spell mentally.

"Windwalking Technique".

In an instant, a gentle wind force surrounded him, swirling and lingering, as if making his body feel much lighter.

[You have learned the skill: Wind Walk]

Wind Walk (Active)

Rank: None

Effect: Increases movement speed after use.

Are there no tiers of skill acquisition?

Ye Mingqiu felt somewhat helpless, but he thought it was normal. Wind Walk was indeed not a high-level spell, just the most basic one, but even so, it was a skill that could be included in the Spirit Realm.

Things like the fireball and wind blade techniques he had previously mastered were not even worth recording; the spirit world would not classify them as mastered skills at all.

This can be considered an improvement, right?

Compared to this.

An excited smile gradually appeared on Ye Mingqiu's face as he cast Wind Walk again. However, the second Wind Walk was different from the basic version. He changed one of the spell's structures and increased the output of spiritual energy.

As a result, along with the output of psionic energy, a hurricane suddenly arose in front of Ye Mingqiu, constantly swirling and blowing around the eye of the storm.

Tang Ruobing, who was reading a book nearby, couldn't help but look up at the swirling vortex and sighed helplessly. She knew this would happen, which was why she had Ye Mingqiu practice in her private training room.

She was 100% certain that this guy would try to use the variant technique. After all, although she pretended to be a newbie when chatting, Ye Mingqiu's learning and answering of questions were genuine.

Tang Ruobing's gaze gradually changed, while he continued to mutter to himself: If he had answered questions not by relying on others' help, but by learning and answering them on his own, then his knowledge reserves would probably be no less than those of an ordinary third-year law student.

After all, she knew the answer to the question she asked.

More importantly, he learned it all by himself, relying on online resources and library textbooks, without any teacher's guidance.

This guy is actually really amazing.

Tang Ruobing simply watched him cast the spell without uttering a single unnecessary word. If there was a major problem, she would stop him directly; if the problem was minor or nonexistent, she would let him play a little longer.

She slowly lowered her eyes and continued reading, but as she read, she realized something was wrong. Tang Ruobing suddenly looked up at the vortex of wind released by Ye Mingqiu and noticed the abnormality.

Something is wrong!

This spell's power is off!

Wind Walk is a basic, universal spell, and even its variants aren't very powerful. But how come this guy's wind vortex is so powerful? You need at least a 30 or higher Spirit attribute to unleash that kind of power, right?

Is it talent? But isn't his talent supposed to amplify strength and agility? What's going on?

This guy is definitely not simple!

Chapter 69 Hey! Let's fight!

Ye Mingqiu's mental attribute is only 20, but he has a level 3 basic mental attribute and a spiritual energy surging talent, which can provide a 95% increase in mental strength when his spiritual energy is at full capacity!

With this amplification, the power of his spells became ridiculously strong; he could even use the same spells with more power than many level 1 mages.

This is the charm of numbers: simple yet incredibly powerful.

[How come this support class is even stronger than the magic class?]

Tang Ruobing was very confused. She had seen Ye Mingqiu's four-dimensional stats before. His strength, agility, physique, and spirit were all very high, totaling 70 points, which was outrageous. She couldn't even figure out what his profession was.

At first, she thought he was a melee fighter, but this guy said his skills were support skills, with super strong healing auras, enchanting abilities, crowd control, and buffs and debuffs.

Without a doubt, these are support skills, but why are their strength and agility attributes so high? Could they be a support class above heroes? Does such a level of profession really exist in this world?

Tang Ruobing didn't know and couldn't be sure, but if there was no such profession, then it would be impossible to explain why Ye Mingqiu was so ridiculously strong.

He couldn't possibly have awakened multiple talents, could he?

Then the talent system just stacked up the stats?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

He is a support character above hero level.

Tang Ruobing concluded that his exceptionally high attributes and numerical increases were his professional abilities, and if that was the explanation, then everything made sense.

According to big data statistics, the basic four-dimensional attributes of a Hegemon-level BOSS are generally more than twice that of a Monarch-level BOSS. The exact difference depends on the situation, but it will not be less than twice. However, the Monarch-level BOSS does not have such a terrifying gap compared to the Leader-level BOSS.

In other words, the gap between those above the Hero level and those above the Hero level is even greater than that between the Hero level and the Lord level!

That's why his attributes are so high!

What are his stats like now?

Driven by curiosity, Tang Ruobing quietly narrowed her eyes to probe, attempting to activate her detection technique.

However, Ye Mingqiu, who was casting a spell on the side, suddenly turned around and met Tang Ruobing's carefully observing gaze. The vortex of wind that he had released also dissipated.

Tang Ruobing lowered her head to read, pretending nothing had happened.

This guy's intuition is ridiculously strong!

Is this the intuition that a Level 1 user should have?

Soon, Tang Ruobing felt a dark shadow cover her body. She slowly raised her head, met Ye Mingqiu's gaze, and asked with her usual cold expression, "What are you doing here?"

"Lend me your staff."

"Huh? You can't use my staff."

"It's okay, I'll just take it."

"Oh."

Tang Ruobing handed her a staff that was even taller than herself and inlaid with dazzling sapphires.

Ye Mingqiu took the staff, looked at it, weighed it in his hand, and then swung it with lightning speed, smashing it down on Tang Ruobing's head with a "Duang".

"Ouch! What are you doing!"

Tang Ruobing clutched her head in pain, never expecting that this guy would actually use her staff to hit her on the head. This was simply outrageous!

"Why are you asking me? You keep using detection techniques on me for no reason. Is that polite? Can't you respect my privacy?" Ye Mingqiu retorted.

"you"

"What are you!"

Ye Mingqiu tapped it again, feeling that the staff felt great to swing. It was dazed but not brain-damaging. No wonder this guy always liked to hit him on the head with the staff. It turned out that hitting someone on the head with a staff was so satisfying. This feeling was simply amazing.

"Well"

Tang Ruobing squinted and began to breathe out.

five minutes later

Ye Mingqiu sat in the rest area with a head full of bumps and a swollen face, her expression solemn. She secretly made up her mind: sooner or later, she would beat this guy to a pulp and let her experience what it felt like to be covered in bumps.

However, despite the beating, Tang Ruobing didn't continue using her detection technique on him. Although he got a good beating, at least his privacy was protected.

Ye Mingqiu glared at Tang Ruobing and angrily rebuked her, "You, an 8th-level mage, are trying to take on a 1st-level support like me by using magic tricks? Aren't you ashamed?"

"!"

Tang Ruobing's cheeks flushed slightly. In fact, at first she wanted to just use brute force to snatch the staff and then beat Ye Mingqiu up.

But during the struggle, she found that her strength seemed to be inferior to Ye Mingqiu's. She lost and was even hit on the head. She got anxious and then used magic to fight back.

Now that I think about it, it does seem a bit embarrassing that an 8th-level mage had to use spells to fight a 1st-level support. However, this is because she put all her attribute points into the most useful Spirit and Constitution, and all her accessories increased Spirit and Constitution, or even more valuable Spirit Strength, Spell Power, and Total Spirit Energy.

If accessories boost strength or agility, that's a waste of stats; she won't use those kinds of accessories.
