Your Talent Is Good; It’s Now Mine

Chapter 29: Another A-Level Skill

“But first, we still have one important thing to do. Wait for me.” As soon as Li Jiye spoke, the Unicorn affectionately rubbed its head on his sleeves.

He patted the Unicorn’s smooth fur and then turned his attention to the Raging Great Ape lying on the ground.

As a Tier 4 demonic beast, its innate skill was extremely attractive. Li Jiye carefully observed it, and what greeted him was like a bolt from the blue.

This Raging Great Ape was actually a dual-element demonic beast!

Dual elements were extremely rare among humans, even more so among demonic beasts.

This Raging Great Ape seemed to have both an A-level and a B-level skill, which were the Power Mastery and the Wind Element skills.

With just C-level Wind Element skills now, Li Jiye felt like his skills might face tremendous changes if he replicated the B-level Wind Element of this Raging Great Ape.

He hesitated for a long time before finally clenching his teeth and placing his palm on the body of the Raging Great Ape.

A soft light exuded from his palm, and a cordial voice rang in his ears.

“Ding! Congratulations on your successful replication of the A-level skill, Power Mastery.”

In the end, the temptation of the A-level skill still surpassed that of the Wind Element skill. After all, he didn’t lack a Wind Element skill to increase his speed.

Power Mastery, on the other hand, could greatly improve his current physique. After he successfully replicated this skill, he immediately felt his muscles become several times more solid.

Li Jiye had lots of experience with body-building potions and had previously used Tier 3 body-building potions to temper his body. Normal body-building potions were now barely able to improve his physique further, but an A-level Power Mastery skill could solve this problem for him and help his physical strength improve tremendously. Thus, he was naturally over the moon.

Li Jiye felt absolutely no regrets for his decision.

Li Jiye took out the Raging Great Ape’s magic core with his hunting dagger and turned back to the Unicorn.

“Unicorn— Hmm. It doesn’t sound brotherly at all. Let’s see, since you’re pure white, let’s call you Xiao Bai[1]!”

Upon hearing this, the Unicorn raised its head and turned to look at Li Jiye. It seemed to contemplate for a while, and after a long time, it finally nodded reluctantly, as if somewhat unsatisfied with the name.

Li Jiye rubbed his nose. The name “Xiao Bai” was indeed a little unglamorous, and it didn’t seem to be worthy of this rare Unicorn. However, he didn’t intend to change it.

“The Blood Ganoderma’s medicinal properties will become better after it becomes a potion. I’ll synthesize one, and you can then take it…”

He immediately set about mixing the potion. He took out the objects used to refine pharmaceuticals that he had bought in Yibao Pavilion in Polar Star City previously and placed them on the dense forest ground. Along with the medicinal fragrance, the Blood Ganoderma was soon completely extracted by him. It quickly turned into a potion that surged with strong elemental energy.

As the medicinal scent wafted, Li Jiye reached out to stroke the Unicorn.

“Quickly, Xiao Bai, drink the potion while it’s at its peak. The elemental energy in this Blood Ganoderma is formidable. It’ll help you break through your current realm!”

Xiao Bai raised its head and neighed loudly. It gulped down the piping hot potion in the cauldron. Once it had drunk the blood-red potion, the silver-white glow around its body instantly burgeoned.

Li Jiye withdrew quickly and summoned Shadow Wind Steps to get onto a huge stump that was high enough for him to observe the surrounding environment.

Xiao Bai was at a critical juncture right now and mustn’t be disturbed. Aware of Xiao Bai’s present state, Li Jiye spontaneously assumed the role of its protector.

As the divine elemental energy in the dense forest intensified, the glow on Xiao Bai’s body also became more and more exuberant. After about five or six hours, the silent Xiao Bai suddenly neighed.

A transparent sound wave swept past the surroundings like a storm. The Divine Affinity element in the air condensed into a thin golden sword and merged with the horn on Xiao Bai’s forehead. The dazzling brilliance caught Li Jiye’s eyes, and he looked over to see that Xiao Bai had grown a new mane shining with gold and silver interweaving patterns. The originally straight horn now looked even more mystical.

“Xiao Bai, you’ve broken through to Tier 4?”

Upon seeing this, Li Jiye immediately jumped off the stump. Xiao Bai looked benevolently at Li Jiye, hesitated for a little while, and then slowly snorted.

“Breakthrough… I think so…”

A young and tender voice laced with a pure breath sounded from Xiao Bai’s mouth. It had indeed reached Tier 4. Although its words were still a little jerky, it could indeed speak human words now.

“That’s great!” Li Jiye’s heart burst with joy. But before he could say anything else, he saw Xiao Bai looking into the depths of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range with its golden eyes.

“I remember something…” it said slowly.

“What? What is it? Do you need my help?”

Li Jiye quickly asked when he saw Xiao Bai’s thoughtful expression. However, Xiao Bai shook its head and affectionately bumped it against Li Jiye.

“It has something to do with my race memory. You should improve your strength as soon as possible… We shall meet again.”

In the next second, it turned into a flash of silver light and galloped off toward the depths of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range. Li Jiye stared after its distant back and couldn’t help but feel astonished.

“Xiao Bai’s speed has improved tremendously. I don’t think I’ll be able to catch up even with Shadow Wind Steps at full strength…”

He quickly organized his thoughts and composed his emotions. This trip had proved a fruitful harvest for him. Not only had he copied the A-level skill, Power Mastery, he had also obtained a Tier 4 Azure Mystic Fruit.

Thinking of how he had applied for a full week of vacation with Teacher Daphne, he immediately oriented himself and left.

He now wanted to take advantage of the time to get familiar with the Power Mastery skill within the week and hunt some low-level demonic beasts.

A week flew by in the blink of an eye. Xiao Bai never returned from the depths of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, and Li Jiye could only pray that it hadn’t met with an accident.

After returning to Polar Star City, Li Jiye sorted out the medicinal materials he had collected for the refining of potions. Now that he had obtained the Tier 4 Azure Mystic Fruit, he could start refining it.

He quickly sold the low-level magic cores in Yibao Pavilion and then immediately bought an array of medicinal materials to refine some potions.

He could only refine the Azure Mystic Fruit potion after leveling up his Pharmacy skill.

He soon settled into an orderly life after his return to Polar Star Academy. He constantly refined various Tier 2 potions until, one day, a student from the academy came to his door.
