"Yeah, I have been trying my best to reach the Blood Master realm for a while but I feel that I can reach it within a month or so," Yoze said to Winter.
"Incredible, not only are you a strong man but a talented martial artist as well." Winter smiled as she tried to sneak a pinch of Yoze's arm.
Moving his arm away from Winter's attempt to grope him, Yoze went inside his room with Winter and showed her his Armored Swordsman body cultivation method. To his surprise, Winter began giving him the advice to improve his Armored Swordsman Slash and Shuffle.
"Your slashes are quick and full of power but they are just too predictable. If you fight against an opponent for too long they will learn how to counter it." Winter grabbed Yoze's sword in his hand and copied his stance.
"This might look like I'm doing the same stance as you but once I change a few things I can go from being predictable to being unpredictable." Winter changed her stance slightly, suddenly giving off a powerful and wild aura that leaked out pure killing intentions.
It was incredibly overbearing so much so that Yoze fell in love with Winter changes. Yoze felt something tingling in his hands as his mind thought about all the moves that were not possible before magically becoming viable.
"That's amazing, something like this?" Yoze copied Winter's stance with perfect accuracy.
Winter looked at Yoze with amazement and said, "That's perfect, your stance is exactly like mine. With this slight change, you don't have to worry about people easily dodging your attacks."
[Armored Swordsman Slash (Developing)]
[Armored Swordsman Shuffle (Developing)]
Yoze suddenly saw his system panel pop up with information about the Armored Swordsman Slash and Shuffle with an updated version. There was no longer a level or progress percentage instead the word developing took their places.
Startled by the sudden change, Yoze turned to look at Winter with renewed interest. He didn't think that a casual change would have such a drastic change on his system.
"Luckily, this change doesn't seem to affect my Armored Swordsman progress negatively." Noticing that his Armored Swordsman body cultivation level and percentage progress hadn't disappeared but grown, Yoze smiled.
"Winter this is fantastic, I'll do anything for you to teach me more about swordsmanship."
"Then I'll teach you everything you need. Just let me touch you as much as I want to during our teaching sessions." Winter handed Yoze his sword and confidently made her demands.
"That's fine but you need to know your limits. Don't think that I fully trust you yet." Yoze didn't take the swords as he and Winter made a pact.
She would teach him to improve his swordsmanship which indirectly affected the way Yoze practiced the Armored Swordsman Slash and Shuffle and he would give up some of his pride. In the few hours of the beginning of their pact, Yoze's Armored Swordsman Slash and Shuffle had gone through a large shift.
From being an elegant sword master wielding a beautiful sword, Yoze became more barbaric and wild. He resembled more of a red-eyed mad bull that wanted to destroy everything in its path.
Flashes of inspiration whirled in Yoze's mind as he took his experience with Twin Fists, Mindless Legs, Big Golen, Iron Skin, and Boneless Man, adding them all into developing his crushing sword style.
Watching from the sidelines, Winter's eyes twinkled as she watched Yoze's rapid improvement. In her eyes, he went from being extremely predictable to being an unstoppable and unpredictable shredder.
If someone accidentally got too close to Yoze while he was in the midst of his training they would be turned into a blood mist before they even got a chance to scream. There were even occasions when Winter hallucinated that Yoze was her bringer of death.
"Terrifying but also the most perfect man on the planet. I need to have him." Winter's eyes drifted toward Yoze's muscles and instinctively retraced his body structure with her fingers.
"So complex, he is going to be a tougher project compared to the others." Winter smiled as she thought about the next step of her plan.
Not knowing that she was helping a monster become more monstrous, Winter lived in her own mind as Yoze felt he was reaching a tipping point. He was incorporating so much of his life experience, talents, and techniques that the Armored Swordsman Slash and Armored Swordsman Shuffle were beginning to not resemble the original at all.
"Why should I just use a sword when I can use other weapons?" Yoze looked at the sword in his hand and could feel that it was lacking something.
He wanted to have a heavy axe in his hand to chop things to pieces, a spear to skewer creatures, a bow for long-range, a stick to beat people with, and even use his own hands.
He wanted to hunt down prey and kill them with overwhelming power. He wanted his blood to boil from the excitement of the hunt.
Due to his desires, Yoze constantly tweaked and changed the Armored Swordsman Slash and Shuffle until he got a new message from his system panel.
[Armored Swordsman Slash has been updated to Armored Weapon Juggler.]
[Armored Swordsman Shuffle has been updated to Armored Weaponer Shuffle.]
[Armored Swordsman has been updated to Armored Weapon Handler.]
Receiving several updates in quick succession snapped Yoze back to reality and caused them to disregard the more unrealistic aspirations he wanted to incorporate. After calming down and thinking about what had happened, he pulled up his status panel.
