Poor great teacher.
"Ciel, tell me about the two new abilities I obtained in the last mission I completed in the 'Perfect World'."
[Yes, Host.
Combination Ability: The main function of this ability is to combine the skills already mastered by the host and create a new one that incorporates the best qualities of each skill. However, it must be noted that each power being combined should have something in common.
This will help in consolidating the techniques and prevent getting overwhelmed by having too many techniques of the same style.
Temporal Affinity: As the name suggests, it allows the host to manipulate the power of time, but it entirely depends on the host's understanding.]
"Ciel, what abilities can I currently combine?"
[You can make the following combinations:
Dragon and Phoenix Sword + Immortal Sword + 9 Fire Stances = Immortal Sword Dance
Immortal Sword Dance: Ten stances that combine the sword's intention with the host's affinities, featuring both long-range and close-range attacks. Each attack will be more powerful and devastating than the previous one.]
"Ciel, can more things be combined?"
[Yes, Host, but it is not necessary at the moment as you are still too weak.]
Upon hearing the response, I pondered for a while because, upon careful consideration, although I have many abilities, none of them can be combined except for the sword. Therefore, I decided to proceed with the change.
"Alright, combine both abilities."
As I finished speaking, a wealth of information flooded my mind. Ten different types of attacks appeared, each surpassing the power of the three combined techniques. It seems completely worthwhile to do so.
Without further delay, I headed to the courtyard to begin practicing.
...
Meanwhile, in a cave near Holy Soul Ville, several loud explosions could be heard.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Where is it?" "I left it here the last time." "Ahh, Yin!"
Tang Hao was desperate, searching for his 'wife' throughout the cave, as he couldn't find her anywhere when he came to visit.
"I swear, when I find the responsible person, I'll kill them!" he shouted loudly, hitting the floor, trying to vent his anger.
...
It has been a few weeks since I returned to the Doulo continent. During this time, I have been focused on practicing my spatial and temporal comprehension, as they are generally the most challenging to understand.
For some time now, I have been trying to create my own combat techniques, which are still a work in progress. The first ability I am attempting to recreate is called translocation, which would allow me to leave a small mark on someone's body and switch positions with them whenever I want.
This would be very useful in battle, as it would enable me to assist my comrades in fights or escape from powerful attacks that I couldn't defend against. The only condition for this ability not to work is if my opponent has a much greater spatial comprehension than mine.
The next ability is to create a field where the flow of time slows down significantly, but I am still far from achieving it since I don't yet understand temporal affinities very well.
"It seems that it will take some time to get used to this," I thought as I walked towards the room.
On the way, I encountered Yu Xiaogang talking to Tang San. From what I overheard, Tang San has been facing some difficulties in his practice, perhaps because he lost the Emperor's bloodline for his martial spirit.
Speaking of the two of them, I remembered the rewards I obtained some time ago, so I needed to think of a way to give them a great gift. Xu Jiang, Tang San's father, has told me that he is secretly protecting him, so for now, I will have to settle with Yu Xiaogang.
Unintentionally, a small smile appeared on my face, which I quickly wiped away since it would be strange to start laughing out of nowhere. However, my guardian noticed this small gesture quickly and also smiled, knowing that I was planning something mischievous.
After waiting for a while, I saw Tang San heading towards the place where he worked in the afternoons, so I took this opportunity to start my grand plan.
If my memory serves me right, there are at least two individuals in this school who have a level above 30, namely the principal and vice principal. Thus, I made my way towards one of them.
The vice principal was in his office, dealing with paperwork, so I entered his room to activate my Sharingan and put him under an illusion. It wasn't much of a problem since my mental power is far superior to his.
After that, I took the liquid from the Last Passion and put a drop of it into a wine bottle. Then, I gave him the following instructions.
"You will go to where the master is, and..."
I began to order him step by step on what to do when he arrived to visit the master, both what to say and how to act, so that the master would relax and not hesitate to drink the wine he was carrying.
The vice principal agreed and took the bottle from my hands. He then left his office and headed to the room where the master was. I can't wait until tomorrow to see the results of this little experiment.
"Mr. Vice Principal, this is for a greater good, so your brave and noble sacrifice will be worth it," I whispered as I slowly followed him, hurrying to Yu Xiaogang's room.
...
KNOCK KNOCK!
Upon hearing someone knocking on the door, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but feel strange, as no one usually visits him on weekdays. He proceeded to see who was outside, and when he saw who was at his door, he was surprised, as he didn't expect the vice principal to be the one coming to visit him.
"Mr. Vice Principal, how can I help you?" he asked.
"Great Master, I came to find you because recently my granddaughter had some doubts about soul beasts and cultivation, but I didn't know how to answer her. So, I came to you to seek some advice," replied the vice principal.
Upon hearing his response, the master couldn't help but doubt his words, as the vice principal, being in his position, should have extensive knowledge.
"Really? But you should also know a lot about those aspects," said Yu Xiaogang.
"Well, usually I can answer her questions, but this time she asked me about theories that are mentioned in your book, and I don't have much knowledge about those topics. So, I came to ask you about my granddaughter's doubts," he replied 'sincerely.'
Upon hearing his response, Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up because one of the things he has been longing for in his life is to be recognized for his theory of soul masters. However, no one has believed him over the years. Therefore, having the vice principal of this school come to him to seek advice on certain doubts boosts his ego.
So, he quickly adjusted his posture, placed one of his arms behind his back, and stroked his chin like a great scholar. After that, he looked at the vice principal again.
"I have no problem answering your doubts, but you must be quick because I don't have much time."
When the master agreed, he became very happy and pulled out a bottle of wine.
"To make this time more enjoyable, I brought this wine for us to drink while we talk," said the vice principal.
The master nodded and ushered him into his room so they could discuss his doubts without anyone bothering them.
...
As for me, I was in a slightly more distant place because I didn't want to be discovered. Seeing the vice principal enter the master's room and the master accepting to answer his supposed doubts, I got excited.
This is because I wanted to see what would happen in the following days with this event, what kind of rumors would spread throughout this school and its surroundings.
Finally, I began the second step of my plan. Since this small liquid would take about an hour to take effect, I decided to hurry.
I started using illusions to make many people start walking around the area near the room where the master and the vice principal were. Among these people were many students of all levels and even teachers.
After a little over an hour, a large crowd started gathering outside the room as strange screams began to emanate from it. Some people didn't know what was happening, but others had already imagined what was going on.
To finish, I threw a small fireball that caused the door of the room to catch fire, revealing a scene that left everyone present astonished. Many girls covered their eyes, while many adults were outraged by what they saw.
Meanwhile, I stood behind everyone with a smile because my plan had worked. Now I just have to wait for the rumors to start circulating in the next period of time.
