Chapter 278 - 278: Peeping into the Heavenly Secrets
In the next few days, MO Xiu felt a little helpless. As smooth as the first few days were, the next few days were equally difficult.
Over the past few days, Moxiu had issued more than a hundred challenges, but only three people had accepted them.
Not only did no one accept the challenge, but there were also fewer people challenging MO Xiu.
MO Xiu thought that since no one had accepted the challenge, it was not a bad idea to accept someone else’s challenge.
However, there were very few challengers in the country. Not only were they few, but their quality was also poor. They were all very weak.
Moxiu had a rough idea of the distribution of the rankings. The people at the top were basically all royalty. Those in the middle were outsiders who had entered from the outside, and those at the bottom were almost all native outsiders.
This was also very understandable. Those who could be selected from the outside were generally not weak. At the very least, they could be ranked in the middle.
However, native outsiders were different. Their talent could not be predicted. Whether they had talent skills or not, they would know at birth. Therefore, many people became outsiders at birth.
As for the strength of the other active skills, he could only wait until he awakened them.
There were many uncontrollable factors, such as the appearance of Lin Feng’s skills that weren’t suitable for combat, or Liu Ruxue’s detection ability that was useless against wild beasts.
These skills might be very useful under certain conditions, but they were not suitable for survival here, or rather, they were not suitable for survival among outsiders.
They formed the bottom of the rankings and relied on the minimum living allowance to survive.
MO Xiu hadn’t earned any points in the past few days, and he had been cultivating the Descent of the Martial God.
It could be said that he was earning his old capital. The more he did not fight, the more he needed to level up his skills.
Leveling up skills and awakening skills would increase his ranking. This was another way to earn points.
Everyone was slowly improving. The ones who improved the most were Liu Ziyang and Yue Yuan, the two brothers in distress.
He had been beaten up by others when he first entered the Royal Family. Now, he had begun to take the initiative to challenge and try to return to the rankings at the beginning.
Xiao Xinru, who was the smoothest, was the complete opposite. She had encountered a bottleneck, and it was difficult for her to advance further on the Potential and Combat Power Rankings.
He had spent most of his time in the Skill Training Hall.
Xiao Hong had always been lukewarm, and her ranking fluctuated greatly.
MO Xiu had also talked to Xiao Hong about whether something had happened.
Xiao Hong’s answer was that it was nothing. She had just accepted more challenges and wanted to fight more people who could restrain her to increase her strength.
MO Xiu didn’t say anything after hearing this, while Yang Qingzhuo focused on finding his opponent.
The auxiliary protection mechanism was good, but finding an opponent was a big problem.
Something big had happened in the past few days, something that was enough to shake the entire Alliance.
Wang Yu’s research on skills had yielded results and she had published a book called “Skills”.
If that was the case, it wouldn’t cause any big waves. An executive of Shadow was powerful, but his influence wasn’t that great.
The real reason why this book caused a sensation was the intervention of the Tianji School. This book was first sent to the Tianji School before it was published.
After the Tianji School saw it, they only said four words.
“I’ve seen the heavenly secrets!”
There was no need to explain what this meant. This book first became popular among the royal family.
Since the book was recognized by Tianji School, the Alliance would naturally
place great importance on it.
The Alliance didn’t publicize it, nor did they emphasize the importance of this book.
It only did one thing to make the people of the Alliance realize how important this book was.
That was to include it in the curriculum of high school and university. High school required them to read through the book, and university would have a detailed explanation course.
Moxiu naturally wanted to buy a copy of such an important book. However, it was very difficult to buy this book in the early stages, and it was only circulated within the imperial family.
Two days later, after the students had joined the course, Moxiu received a free package from the Outsider Building.
There was a lot of content in the book that Wang Yu had once talked about in the cosmic cram school.
The book was divided into three major chapters.
The first chapter was about the theory of body limitations, which divided skills into five categories: Warrior, Mage, Assassin, Support, and Special Ability.
The books had already been listed in the textbooks. These five occupations and five types of skills should be standardized in the future.
The five Elements of Yan University should be renamed according to this. Power Attack, Agility Attack, and Elements would all become a thing of the past.
There were also some things that Wang Yu had not mentioned before. They should have been thoroughly studied at that time.
There was a restraining relationship between these five professions.
Among the five major professions, there were two that were relatively few groups, support and special abilities.
Under normal circumstances, the support’s combat power was relatively weak. Therefore, when fighting alone, any other class could restrain the support.
Esper abilities were special. There were too many types of skills and there was no fixed attack method. It could be said that there was no weakness in the class, but there was no weakness. It was relatively comprehensive, which meant that there was no absolute strength.
Next were the most popular classes, which were also the most mainstream classes.
The three of them countered each other. Warriors countered Assassins because Warriors generally had strong physical defense and had an advantage in close combat.
Assassins countered Mages. Mages all had powerful elemental damage, but their movement speed was slow and their defense was low. Assassins were at full speed, so it was difficult for Mages to lock onto their targets.
Mages countered Warriors. This was something that Moxiu had experienced several times before. When he fought against Bobosai and Huo Hou, he used elemental attacks to win because Warriors generally did not have any elemental defense skills.
Of course, this was not absolute. This was only a slight restraint in a one-on-one situation.
If it was a war, mages would always hide behind warriors, and assassins would always wander the battlefield.
The second chapter was the analysis of the strength of skills.
The general content was that the difficulty of leveling up a skill was not necessarily related to the strength of the skill. The main thing was the level of comprehension.
This surprised Moxiu. In the past, he had always felt that the stronger a skill was, the harder it was to level up. However, he could not rule out the possibility of an epiphany. Thinking about it, what the book said did not seem to be wrong.
The third chapter was called the infinite possibilities of skills.
MO Xiu roughly looked through it. Compared to the third chapter, the first two chapters were basically the basics.
This third chapter was about advancement, and there were many things that were difficult to understand.
This chapter talked about the infinite possibilities of skills.
The words at the beginning of the book made people fall into deep thought.
‘What exactly is a skill? If it was a superpower, why were there so many restrictions?”
Moxiu had the same doubts. Why did a human’s skill have a duration, cooldown time, or some side effects to limit it?
He continued reading.
“Can we assume that the skill is a gift from the ‘Origin’? However, the gift was damaged when it hit Earth and became incomplete. Is the skill we are using really complete? Isn’t it defective?”
“I think so. It’s a defective product, but don’t be discouraged. Not only can a defective product be repaired to its original appearance, but it can also be cultivated into other appearances. This is the infinite possibilities..”
