He was satisfied with the state of his spells, and the new uses would make a difference later on. He decided to get some new 3rd Rank space spells, but he could not find any that provided new and unique uses compared to the ones he already had.

As such, he skipped learning the rest and came out of the library after spending less than a day. With his current SDI, learning spells did not take nearly as long as before, especially the more familiar he got with the space element and the magic system.

Dante informed Master Elandor that he would be entering seclusion to break through to the 4th Rank so he could schedule the fight with Jameson to be when the fellow returned from his trek.

Dante left the Magus world and entered his avatar that was still sleeping in the True Martial World. Since he had trained his avatar's body, it was not stiff like before and felt pretty okay, but he wasn't here to waste time on it.

He descended with his real body and collected all the information about the protagonist he created in this world, the one called Liang. He had been a gentle beggar boy fighting to survive in the crags of the city by working for lowly gangs to maintain his sister's poor health.

If Jameson's actions and outcomes had been somewhat similar to his archetype minus the interferences by Dante here and there, then Liang was basically a copy and paste of his archetype.

He did everything you expected him to. After receiving power and reawakening himself, he first slaughtered everyone in the gang using his 'advanced assassin skills' and then had a tough fight with the gang boss who was a peak Body Tempering Martial Artist.

He was forced to use a technique that harmed himself to slaughter the boss, who revealed that his gang was a subsidiary of a low-level Martial Dojo that was led by a Martial Warrior Peak powerhouse.

The fellow pretended not to care but felt the pressure. Using the technique he was given by the AI chip for his kills, Liang progressed rapidly while adding his own scientific knowledge from Earth.

As an assassin, he knew the human body as well as a surgeon because of the precision needed. One needed the knowledge and precision to save while the other needed the knowledge and precision to kill.

Not to mention that he had raided the gang of their money and resources of which he used to boost himself. Of course, this led to a new problem, which was the fact that the gang was gone but he survived.

He was not the only beggar the gang used, so the Martial Dojo behind the gang used the brutal method of torturing them all to find information, which was naturally illogical on paper, but the gang leader of that shitty gang was the younger brother of the Dojo leader.

Obviously, when it came to Liang's turn, he was initially willing to bear the punishment and act the part of a scared beggar boy, but naturally, the goons sent to deal with him saw his ill sister and had nefarious ideas, so Liang went crazy and killed them all.

Liang knew that he couldn't hide anymore and was also in a tough spot because he dared not move his sister much lest her barely maintained illness erupt. Then, here came the system that granted Liang a top-notch alchemy technique in exchange for all the 'killing points' Liang accrued from his actions so far.

After all, just like Jameson, the 'system shop' was supposed to provide Liang with resources like the Enhanced Energy Elixir at a cost so that his progress would be fast and clean, but Dante did not have the power to set up such a thing yet.

But the system had to give him a way out, hence this development. With the alchemy technique given, coupled with Liang's own precision as an assassin and calm temperament, he joined the Alchemy Association of the city.

After all, apart from the Supreme Martial Hall that hunted demon beasts themselves and produced their own blood energy soup within their walls, every other faction could only rely on the Alchemy Association and their exorbitant prices to survive.

This made them number 1 below the Supreme Martial Hall and the City Lord's Mansion in Green Wind City in terms of power and influence. Naturally, Liang went to sign up and displayed his exquisite alchemy skills, making everyone's jaws drop and their brains explode.

Even the old elders rushed out, and there was a short comedic scene where everyone fought over Liang, but Liang calmly stated that he was not seeking a master, making them all lament.

However, they all looked at him positively and stated he could visit them anytime and even gave him some gifts that were very valuable. Liang took them and was told to come for his alchemist registration details the next day.

When he got back, he was horrified to find that the Martial Warrior elder brother of the gang leader was in front of his shack and about to break it down to capture him. Thinking of his feeble and weakened sister within, Liang's eyes became bloodshot, and he unwisely charged over and slaughtered two of the fellow's goons who were at the peak of Body Tempering.

After all, Liang himself was at peak Body Tempering after consuming all the resources he got from the gang. Naturally, the quality of his Body Tempering was far better than even some of the talents in the Supreme Martial Hall, surpassing the level of Shui Binglan and co when they were at that stage.

This shocked the others as they felt fear and horror. How could a mere beggar boy who was the dog of their subsidiary gang be so strong? Those who were in the Body Tempering realm felt their legs shake and did not dare take a step forward.

Only the elder brother of the gang leader and two others stepped forward, seeming shocked but calm. After all, they were the Dojo Master and two Vice Dojo Masters of the Bone Breaking Dojo, all Martial Warriors!

The two vices were early Martial Warriors while the dojo leader was a peak Martial Warrior. They were confident in the suppression of realms, and even if they felt Liang was a bit special, they did not believe he could defy common sense.

Unfortunately, Liang did, and using a mixture of assassin tricks as well as his own talent, he killed the two Vice Dojo Masters amidst their shock, forcing the dojo master to take him seriously as his heart thumped with fear.

He then felt that if Liang were given a chance to grow further, he could come back to exterminate him so he must nip the problem in the bud!

No matter how special Liang was, he couldn't yet display senseless overpoweredness and barely managed to keep his life against such strong realm suppression. When things were not looking good for him anymore, Liang used his dangerous technique with a backlash and overwhelmed his foe.

Seeing that he was about to die and was severely injured, the dojo master went crazy and used some forbidden pill that was outlawed by the state. In a surprise twist, it turned out that the fellow was allied with demonic martial artist factions that refined human beings into pills for blood Qi boosting.

Naturally, once he let go of his inhibitions, the dojo master began to overwhelm Liang and looked to be about to win. However, it was at this moment that Shui Binglan, the actual Shui Binglan, just happened to pass by and saw what was going on.

As a great talent in the Martial Warrior realm perfection, her ability was not something that a mere dojo master could match even with the illegal enhancement he was using. After all, Shui Binglan was also the only disciple - as well as the only other person in the entire city apart from Dante - who could use Internal Arts.

She easily defeated the dojo master like a war goddess, completely engraving her valiant image in the heart of Liang, who had never comatose young sister as he slowly took out some of the healing items that alchemist elders had gifted him.

tasted love in his two lifetimes. Although he pulled himself back and regained his calm demeanor, his soul was quivering.

Shui Binglan only found this lad pleasing to the eye, but she embarrassedly remembered that they were the same age, so why was she acting older? The two of them chatted for a bit, with Shui Binglan inquiring how things came to this point while Liang explained while leaving many things out.

Shui Binglan glanced at him deeply and told him that she would handle the rest before leaving the area. Liang then took his bruised and battered body back into the shack, opting to lie near his comatose young sister as he slowly took out some of the healing items that alchemist elders had gifted him.

Thinking about his battle just now, Liang swore to become even stronger. He then glanced at his War God system and knew that he had to break through to the Martial Warrior realm and begin to hunt demon beasts in order to accrue more killing points for better rewards.
