Talent Point

John was browsing the Alchemist Forums about the Orthodox Refining Technique where he got the following results.

" My dear Alchemist friends. Don't waste your contribution points to buy the Orthodox Refining Technique".

" I am a tier 5 Alchemist who has refined high-grade pills. So I decided to buy the orthodox refining technique. But do you know after buying the technique I instantly regretted".

" The first reason was the book had only a few pages. So it might be better if you can use the contribution points to exchange the poison refining techniques. This book is good and contains well-known poison from tier 0 to tier 6. This is a must-have book for any Alchemist who wants to have some self-defense".

" Now let's get back to the topic. As I said after buying the Orthodox Refining Technique I instantly regretted it. The first condition of reading the book requires you to have you to buy the Orthodox Refining Technique".

" Then you have to raise it to a minimum of level 4 just to read the Orthodox Refining Technique book. It took me a full three years to raise the level of orthodox refining techniques to level 4. But do you know that after doing so I couldn't even use the knowledge as all I could do was read the book which has various concepts that I can't mention here".

" But what is worse is that after you finish reading the book. On the last page, there is another warning given. Don't use the Orthodox Refining Technique unless your level of Orthodox Refining Technique and Basic Refining Technique reaches level 6".

" Friends you all know how hard is it to increase your Orthodox Refining Technique and Basic Refining Technique to level 6. Even if I consumed all the talent points then also I couldn't raise its level to level 6".

" Do you know what kind of emotions and frustration I had to go through after reading the book...".

John looked at the curses that were densely packed and he decisively ignored them and then he touched his chin.

He saw various comments expressing sympathy for the Alchemist as leveling the skill to level 6 was very hard. Even with Talent points that directly improve the level can't increase the technique to such a high level. It requires a minimum of 10 talent points to raise the level to level 6.

Seeing the comments he frowned and felt that it was necessary to check the forums related to Talent points.

A few seconds later.

" Talent points are very important as they can be used to improve a skill level and they can even help you to transform the skill into a higher grade if you are lucky enough".

" Here are some things that you need to keep in mind".

" Talent points are gained at every five level".

" Any skill is divided into six levels in which if you want to increase your skill level then you can either do it by slowly practicing the skill. Here the talents play a huge role as if the higher grade talent you awaken the higher comparison rate you have".

" To increase skill level 1 to level 2 requires 1 talent point. From level 2 to level 3 requires 2 talent points... From level 5 to level 6 requires 5 talent points".

" Of course, the above number consumed is only for basic level skills. If any higher grade skill suppose green grade then the talent points you consume increases".

" You can get talent points by consuming very rare pills and herbs. But they are too sparse in number so I don't think that any common people might be able to afford it".

" Finally the Talent points are very precious so you must use them accordingly".

John had a thoughtful expression after reading the forum.

Finally, he decided to search for how to increase the grade of any skills.

As soon as he searched he found only one topic. And to read it required him to pay 100 contribution points.

John paid the contribution points with a look of pain on his face. Then he began to read the forum. He also saw the poster's name was written in a Golden Character named FEDERATION.

" Any skill learns, you can increase its grade by only three ways".

"The first one is while consuming the talent points which has a very small probability of increasing your skill to a higher grade".

" The second way is when you increase your tier then according to the mastery of your skills you can increase the grade to a higher grade. This is the most common and efficient way. But there might even be cases where people's skills remain the same grade. It happens mostly in white-grade talent cases".

" The third way is a once-in-a-chance encounter. It's called epiphany. This process is very mysterious as the researcher still hasn't found out why people fall into this state. It is said that if any person enters into this state then they can easily increase their skill grade to a higher level. There are some chances that the skill grade can be improved to another grade.

The person in Epiphany will have a very high concentration state so remember to not disturb them or else they might even kill you if you interrupt them".

After reading the third way, John's expression froze. He immediately felt that he made a huge mistake after all he knew that Kathy, Teacher Karla, Zolo, and even Celia had a highly concentrated expression on their faces.

Thinking about it he felt chilled in his heart. He even began to feel that this place he must leave as soon as possible.

But suddenly he thought about something and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

He hadn't refined the experience pills today. So he began to refine them and also lowered their quality to middle grade.

In the afternoon.

After eating the food.

Teacher Karla looked at John and asked," John why is your expression so gloomy?".

John hesitated and then he said," Teacher Karla I feel that something is wrong with my refining techniques. As the grade of the pill I refined has been decreased to the middle grade".

As soon as he finished speaking Teacher Karla had a stunned look on her face. She immediately said," Are you sure you are telling the truth?".

John nodded his head with a bitter expression on his face.
