Chapter 71: Separated by water

"Is that okay?" I scratched my head.

"No... It is okay!"

The attendant smiled. "July Wildfire, let me get one more for you."

"Okay, thank you!"

A few moments later, a blade-wielding puppet appeared in front of me and it was already activated. Killing intent appeared in its empty eyes and it charged at me.

Again!

Another chance to cultivate and train. After hitting the five-move combo, I breathed out. It was still not perfect. Right, the combined hit was not explosive enough. I needed to increase the forward speed and strength. Try again!

Just like this, I trained time after time.

At 6pm, the three-hour countdown for the Wind Cloud Platformstrial appeared. At that moment, I hit a combo. My heart lit up. Like a basketball player good at tossing three pointers, I succeeded! Not only was this series of moves fluid, it was really perfect. Each detail was flawless and it was the most exquisite combo I could do at this state!

A loud bell rang

Ding!

[System notification: Congratulations! You have succeeded in creating your own combo, evaluated as SS. Will you confirm?]

...

It was upgraded. This was a double S grade; it was one grade higher than Gale!

Enough enough. SSS-grade combo was unimaginable, probably only the legendary cultivators like Li Xiao Yao could create one. After all, his moves, body, and will were not something that mortals like me could compare to. Double SS combo was enough for me to sweep the world!

Confirm!

The moment I confirmed, the naming interface popped up.

I thought about it and a phrase entered my mind!

Separated by Water!

I entered the words. Although I knew that it did not fit the meaning, for some reason, when I looked at the words, I felt that the combo fit these words!

Ding!

[System notification: Your combo will be announced to the world; will you hide your ID?]

"Okay!"

I was a lowkey person, so how could I announce my ID?

In the next second, a bell reverberated in the air. Moreover, this was a global notification. All cities and maps were reached

Ding!

[System notification: Congratulations Player July ****fire for successfully comprehending the SS-grade combo, Separated By Water (Left Sweep + Right Sweep + Upper Flick + Kick Knock-up + Double Dagger Hit)! He is the second player to have created a combo in Illusionary Moon.Obtained rewards: level +2, Charm +2, contribution point +200000, gold +4000!]

...

"What?"

"Scoff! If such an expert doesn't want to get famous, who can find them?"

...

Hearing their discussion, Ah Fei grinned. "Ah Li, it seems like you are gonna get famous."

"No."I shook my head. "I don't want to, either. Compared to people who are famous, I'd rather be ordinary. Isn't that better than anything else?"

"You are so shameless; you are ordinary! You're nothing but that at all. You are so shameless!" He raged and cursed.

I laughed out loud. "Okay, I'll stop wasting time with you; I'm going back."

However, right at that moment, another bell reverberated in the city

Ding!

[System notification: Congratulations Player Lin Xi for completing first job promotion, obtaining the title of Warrior. As she is the first, obtained rewards: level +1, Charm +2, Reputation +2000, gold +5000!]

...

"D*mn..."I was shocked. "Ah Fei, let's stop talking; I'm heading back to do the job advancement. Goodbye!"

"En, go. It is money!" He grinned and laughed out loud.

I charged into Great Sage Hall and smashed the Black Castle'sCity Return Scroll. I appeared on the Wind Cloud Platform and looked into the sky. "Master, are you there? I have something urgent."

"Yes."

Ding Heng appeared in mid-air and smiled while touching his beard. "Little fellow, what is the matter?"

I said confidently, "I request for a job advancement."

"Oh?"

He smiled. "Actually, your physique has reached the requirements, but... as your master, I will never do such shameless things as being a partner of an Assassin. Thats why I can't help you."

I felt a chill. I had to do it myself?

"What should we do then?"

"There is an idea." He sucked in a deep breath. "Head to the main hall with your token, find the deacon elder, and send in your request. He will give you a quest, and after you complete it, your identity will change."

"Okay.Thank you, master!"

"En, go!"

...

I followed the mountain path.

Outer Main Hall was actually just the hall on the peak which was ruled by a bunch of deacons. This was the power center and was split into Elder Hall, Judgement Hall, Spirit Garden, et cetera.

I pretty much ran all the way, and once I was there, the majestic hall had me in awe. In front of it, I was too small. Fortunately, there were many undead cultivators walking to and fro, so I was not too lonely.

I walked over and found an elder who looked like he had died for thousands of years. "Elder, I request for a job advancement."

"Oh?"He glanced at me and smiled. "So it is you, July Wildfire. You are famous in the Wind Cloud Platform. It seems like you have grown enough.Gokill100 Darkness Hunting Dogs and collect their fangs. This is my test for you. Oh, right. The Darkness Hunting Dogs are really strong, so you must be careful."

"En, thank you!"
