Ancient Tears BloodLine

Days passed, and Zack went about his daily routine. He is looking forward to the weekend. While practising in several battle chambers, he is honing his talents.

…

The day before, Zack is preparing for life-or-death duel.

My technique for moving my legs has improved. However, it is still far from flawless. In the training chamber, I'm currently meditating. I'm attempting to digest my newfound knowledge. After so many days in the library.

I made the decision to cool things down and not go there until it was absolutely necessary. Despite the fact that I couldn't locate anything linked to the elemental zone or the blood element. But I came found something that all warriors have in common.

When it comes to skill development, I now understand the proper course to take. I'm not as clueless as I used to be. The path of skill development can be interpreted in a variety of ways. While wandering through the library.

I read a book about the division of skills. The book outlines the evolution of skill division throughout human history.

In that book, there is some history that is lacking. It does, however, provide a glimpse of ancient skill division. At first, whether it's Martial Combat Technique or Elemental Combat Technique, in the ancient age.

According to ancient division, the skill technique growth path is separated into four divisions.

Each division is divided into four sub-levels: beginner, intermediate, proficient, and specialist.

1. Small Wheel

2. Big Wheel

3. Perfect Wheel

4. Great Wheel 

Now, different civilizations gone by. The Skill division was also interpreted in various ways. People in the modern period do not follow the ancient skill categorization. Rather, they adhere to present practises.

The level of perfection is the final stumbling block. Once they had perfected their craft. They have the ability to cause synchronisation. And their combat capability will skyrocket. Prior to this, my goal was to achieve perfection.

But now, after reading that book, I'm not so sure. I'm thinking other thoughts, and I'm no match for today's warriors. I cultivate the cultivation technique. They're both quite ancient one. My intuition told me to stick to the old skill division.

Not to blindly follow the trends of the day simply because it is convenient. After some consideration, I decided to follow the ancient skill division.

I also created a self-rule. My understanding is restricted. As a result, it makes no difference. It doesn't matter if it's information on Monsters, Elements, Herbs, or other valuables. Prior to gaining sufficient knowledge of the subject.

I'm not going to make any decisions. My healing and blood elements, in particular. It is something about which I need to learn more. I'm going to hold off till I've been accepted into Academy.

If I hadn't read that book earlier, for example, I wouldn't have had those talents. I'm not aware of any ancient skill division.

I also discovered that The Great Wheel is regarded as a myth. Because, even in antiquity, People who have attained the Great Wheel degree of competence are extremely rare. They are regarded as unrivalled evildoers.

So many eras have passed. People have created a plethora of high-tech machines and weapons. As a result, their reliance on them grew over time. As a result, in today's world, individuals keep the perfect stage as a last skill limit. Because in today's modern world, persons who achieve perfection are regarded as modern-day geniuses.

After deciding to follow the ancient divide. I put those earlier skill divisions in the back of my mind. The importance of skills is enormous. Some abilities are inextricably related to your consciousness. My "Reckoning Circle" and "Sword Divide" both become part of my lightning rune, much as my "Reckoning Circle" and "Sword Divide." It was even became part of the Triad rune.

Thankfully, I didn't pick up too many skills and became tied to my consciousness.

"I'll have to be more cautious from now on." "I told myself." The ancient and modern skill divisions are vastly different. I had the impression that the stage of current excellence is comparable to the Big Wheel of Ancient Division.

In my face, I flashed a wry smile. "Then my abilities are at the Entry Wheel's Beginner Step." I was thinking to myself. I sighed when I realised this. Cultivation levels are similar to skill division. You can improve your skills while increasing your cultivation levels.

But I'm not going to waste any time on it right now; my main concern is passing the inheritance test. However, I will make every effort to improve my abilities. Which would undoubtedly help my battle capabilities.

…

Later that night, 

"I heard from Mr. Arthur about a life-or-death duel," Mr. James stated, looking at Zack. He was quite anxious." Mr. James sighed deeply. "They don't know your true elemental strength," he added. It will be relatively simple to win the game.

But I kept it a secret from him. Instead, I promised him, "You'll be fine."

"If not for the teacher," I said when I heard that. I wouldn't recommend a life-or-death duel. It's a shame that this happened immediately.

After entering the academy. I'm sure I'll be able to communicate with him."

Observing Zack's dissatisfaction. Mr. James made the following observation: "I understand your dissatisfaction. But only if you've received formal recognition. It's pointless to attempt anything. He's genuinely putting you to the test. He's already taught you how to use lightning as an attacking and defensive strategy.

Now it's your turn to demonstrate your development by enrolling in academy. Then he will be able to guide you by recognising your potential." "Having a special element does not make one individual take you as a disciple," he remarked.

"Uncle James, I understand. My goal isn't to join the D-rated institutions. To get into such higher-grade institutions, I'll improve my performance." I responded.

"It's possible Uncle James is worried about the D grade quota. I, on the other hand, do not. Examining the existing state of affairs. It's simple to get into an A-rated school." I was thinking to myself.
