Martial Artist profession

With Su Mu following closely, Ram made his way back to Craftsman's Corner to buy the transfer material he needed.

As they walked, he couldn't help but glance at her, still processing everything that had just happened.

Su Mu moved with a graceful ease, her sapphire eyes scanning their surroundings with a keen alertness.

At Craftsman's Corner, Ram spent some time pondering his options. Ultimately, he decided on the Martial Artist profession over Assassin, Ranger, Knight, and several others.

He liked that martial artists could learn a variety of techniques, allowing them to become assassins, rangers, swordsmen, or a combination, depending on the skills they practiced.

The main challenge was mastering many different techniques to a high level, but Ram believed that with the help of spiritual power to improve his proficiency, he could learn various techniques effortlessly and harness the true power of professions like Martial Artist or Spiritual Planter.

"Let's go with Martial Artist," Ram said, his voice firm with the decision.

Due to the large number of martial artists on Blue Star, ranging from low to high level, the professional transfer materials for martial artists were easy to find and cheap.

Ram quickly located the materials he needed and purchased them. He also bought a few martial arts techniques, including Basic Fist Technique, Basic Foot Technique, and Basic Knife Technique.

Instead of buying advanced techniques, he opted for basic ones because upgrading them consumed less spiritual power.

"These should do for now," Ram said, holding up the scrolls.

"They're a good start," Su Mu agreed. "Mastering the basics will provide a strong foundation."

With their purchases in hand, they made their way back to the underground subway. The crowds were thinner now, and the air was cooler.

As they walked, Su Mu watched Ram carefully, feeling a pang of guilt.

She was worried about the amount of Life Energy she had absorbed from him earlier.

"Ram," she began hesitantly, "about earlier... I didn't mean to take so much energy from you. I'm sorry." she saw him acting like he was recovering at an astonishing rate.

Within ten minutes, he was walking normally, and in half an hour, he appeared completely back to normal. 

Ram glanced at her, surprised by her apology. "It's okay, Su Mu. I understand that you needed it. Besides, I'm feeling fine now." he said, moving his body to show her he was perfectly fine.

"I have a very strong recovery ability. You don't need to worry about me."

Su Mu didn't believe him. Even for someone as strong as her, losing 40% of their total Life Energy would require at least half a day to recover after rest.

Confused and concerned, Su Mu finally spoke up, "Hey, are you alright? You can take some rest if you need to. You don't have to act tough in front of me."

It hadn't even been an hour for Ram, and he was already back to normal without any rest, how could she believe it? Just as she was about to argue, she heard the voice of the Evil Spirit in her mind.

"Don't worry about him. Just as he said, he is completely recovered."

"Hah, really?" Su Mu questioned, and the Evil Spirit responded, "He seems to be even more talented than we thought. Did you not notice? When you absorbed his Life Energy, it not only replenished your depleted lifespan, but it also increased your degree of evolution."

"His Life Energy has very special properties, and he might not even know this, or he willingly lets you absorb it despite knowing how special it is. If others find out about his Life Energy, that it can improve the degree of evolution of others, he won't have a peaceful life."

Su Mu felt complicated when she heard this. She didn't know what to say, so she silently followed behind Ram.

Soon, they reached the underground subway station.

As they arrived, Ram spotted Sid and Mai putting the finishing touches on the truck. It was a total makeover! The old clunker was now a heavy-duty, armored beast with a fresh coat of paint and some serious firepower.

It bristled with small cannons on the sides and a big gun up top, and the front was decked out with razor-sharp blades made of super-steel alloys.

The armor was layered up with fancy, high-tech materials like those super-strong carbon fiber tubes.

 And the suspension and tires were all tricked out to handle any kind of terrain, rough rocks, deep sand, even ice – without any problem!

Sid noticed Ram approaching and greeted him with a wide grin. "Hey, bro! Took you longer than expected.

I waited for you with Little Mu, but seeing that you weren't coming back soon, we returned. How's it going? Did you find what you were looking for?"

As Ram came closer, Thorny, who was sitting on Mai's shoulder, flew toward him and hugged him tightly.

Linger, who had been hiding inside Ram's jacket, flew out and glared fiercely at Thorny, ready to fight.

Ram quickly intervened, introducing them to each other and forbidding them to fight.

"Yeah, I got a few things," Ram said, patting his backpack. "Some seeds and a couple of cultivation techniques. How about you? Any news on the mission?"

Sid's expression turned serious. "Yes, the mission details just came in. But it's not just us who accepted this mission, there were more. It's going to be tough, but the rewards are worth it. We need to gather a team of five, and with Sister Mai, you, and me, we just need two more."

Ram nodded, and just as he was about to reply, Su Mu walked up and stood beside him.

He introduced her to Sid and Mai, "Well, this is Su Mu. She's the new team member I found. There's also another guy I know who can probably join us by tomorrow."

Sid and Mai looked at Su Mu warily but relaxed after hearing she was their new team member.

The place they were in was very hidden, and not many knew of it. Seeing a stranger had made them cautious.

Mai, who had been observing Su Mu, finally spoke up. "Hey, Mr. Rookie, are you becoming stupid like my brother or what? Why did you bring another Tier-1 to join our team?"

She couldn't understand why they were bringing Tier-1 professionals to a C-rank mission, which even most Tier-2 and Tier-3 professionals wouldn't dare take.
