Lu Zhen had already filtered out the most talented among the children. The boy with distinctive black hair who previously tried to pull the sword out of the ground was Liu Piao, while the biggest person among the group was Nan Fang.
The girl with pink hair was Feng Rao, who blended in with the children so much that her presence was very minimal. Although it was hard for her to hide from Lu Zhen's superhuman five senses, it was no problem for her to make herself invisible in front of an adult human who hadn't trained in martial arts yet.
"This is a work of art!" the moment she held the hidden weapon, she couldn't help but exclaim as she appreciated its beauty, treating it as if it were her god. She tightly held the needle, examining it carefully.
"Not only is the needle perfectly carved, but even the strings are done to perfection. They are neither too thin nor too thick, with a perfect ratio so that it could cut the enemies with the string itself..."
Lu Zhen patiently waited as she marvelled at the hidden weapon before she finally gave it back to him with some reluctance.
"Young master, here." Lu Qing handed a book to Lu Zhen with some reluctance.
"Hmm..." Lu Zhen curiously took the book and saw a diary written in bold letters, covered by an animal's skin.
Usually, books were covered by animal skins as it was a standard practice for commoners although it was made with the hare of rabbits and small animals so it was relatively cheap.
He casually flipped through the book, examining all the human body meridians and blood vessels with the heart as the epicentre and some points written in it.
"Young master, thanks to the book you have given me, I have simplified the process and filtered through all the words, only writing the most useful points in the book that you need to learn. And this," she handed Lu Zhen another book with the name "Butterfly Dance" written on it.
Lu Zhen took the book as he said, "I will return your book after an hour, wait a moment."
"Huh." Lu Qing was stunned when she heard this, looking at Lu Zhen in surprise.
Ignoring Lu Qing, he sat in a chair, flipping through all the pages. His gaze lingered on a page for three seconds before turning to the next. His mind worked on overdrive, remembering all the words.
Although he couldn't fully comprehend all the words, it was very easy for him to remember all the things written in the book, as if he etched it into his brain.
It was almost like photographic memory!
Just one level up from his charm attribute had made him like a power house—imagine how powerful his brain power would be if he could level up more?
However, Lu Zhen didn't have any way to do so for now, as he couldn't progress after he became a semi-mage since he didn't have mana. Every spell required to be used was useless in this era, but Lu Zhen only wanted it for increasing his brainpower, which might be doable.
"I don't believe the old monsters who survived the mage's era don't have a better solution to have more mana," Lu Zhen sneered as he kept reading the book, memorising and understanding every word to a "t."
