Panlong: My Auto-Level Training System

Chapter 28 Points Exhausted

Time flies, and fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In fifty years, Tianfeng County has undergone tremendous changes. With a Saint-level expert in charge, many people hope to register their household in Tianfeng County.

Karl's Wind Shadow Pavilion became the weathervane of the entire county, a place that countless geniuses dreamed of.

Over the past fifty years, the rules of Fengying Pavilion have gradually improved. Having witnessed the disciples who have come out of Fengying Pavilion, even though the requirements have been gradually increasing every year, a large number of children still choose to sign up every year.

After all, when the Wind Shadow Pavilion was first established, many people signed up because of Karl's status as a Saint-level expert. However, as those who joined the Wind Shadow Pavilion and completed their training, most of them could not reach the level of a Level 3 Warrior within ten years. But those who could reach the Level 3 Warrior level and be promoted to inner disciple within ten years usually had the strength of a Level 6 Warrior upon graduation.

A level six warrior is considered extremely outstanding even in a county town, but what truly made Fengying Pavilion famous throughout Tianfeng County and even spread its reputation to the outside world was a genius.

Ogrev, an ordinary boy, only achieved slightly above-average results in the Wind Shadow Pavilion's assessment. However, Ogrev maintained his enthusiasm for cultivation. He joined the Wind Shadow Pavilion at the age of nine after passing the assessment, comprehended battle qi at the age of twelve, reached the level of a first-level warrior, reached the level of a second-level warrior at the age of fourteen, and reached the level of a third-level warrior at the age of seventeen.

Such talent was considered by several level-nine warriors in the county to be at its peak if he could only cultivate to level seven. However, Ogrev, who was only considered to have the upper limit of level seven in the eyes of level nine warriors, only became a level seven warrior at the age of thirty-eight. After becoming a level seven warrior, Ogrev received brief guidance from Karl once a year. And it was from that point on that Ogrev, whose upper limit in the eyes of the world was only level seven warrior, became a level nine warrior at the age of forty-four.

Now, with his strength at the late stage of level nine at the age of forty-seven, Ogreve has become Karl's chief disciple.

Karl's attitude towards this did not change much. Fengying Pavilion had been established for fifty years, and Karl's support had never stopped. Outer disciples enjoyed a minimum living allowance, while inner disciples were given full-speed cultivation enhancement. As for those who could grow into level seven warriors, Karl would bestow upon them level nine aptitude.

However, those who were granted the Saint-level aptitude by Karl were all carefully selected. Talent was not a major consideration; Karl focused more on their character and qualities. Among them, seven outstanding individuals were taken in by Karl as his personal disciples.

The chief disciple, Ogrev, is resolute in character. His comprehension is average, but his perseverance is extremely strong. No matter how difficult the training is, he will not give up easily as long as there is a sliver of hope. His perseverance is Ogrev's greatest strength, which is why Karl even bestowed upon him two Saint-level aptitude upgrades.

Those who are not at the Saint-level will be promoted to the Saint-level, while those who already possess Saint-level aptitude will be selected from the secondary pool for promotion. Fortunately, the aptitudes that are promoted are within Karl's expectations.

Ogreve improved two attributes: his fighting spirit and his mental strength.

In Karl's view, these two qualifications were almost inevitable. After obtaining the qualifications of a level nine warrior, the qualification of battle aura was already at the highest level. Moreover, it was impossible to have great perseverance without strong mental strength. The improvement of these two qualifications brought not only these two qualifications, but also a significant improvement in Ogrev's comprehension after the improvement of mental strength.

Even his physical strength will gradually increase to the level of a sixth-level warrior under the nourishment of his battle aura. This also means that in Karl's eyes, Ogrev is already a Saint-level reserve.

Aside from Ogreve, the remaining six were rising stars. Some were naturally gifted, with their magical talent at least at the high affinity level. Others possessed excellent character and conduct, and all of them were among Karl's disciples, each having at least one of these outstanding qualities.

"It's another beautiful, sunny day."

The highest floor of the Wind Shadow Pavilion is also where Karl chose to go into seclusion. For the first ten years or so, Karl rarely came out. Only in the later years would he occasionally come out a few times. Now, the Wind Shadow Pavilion has been optimized several times. It used to be used to select outer disciples with better aptitude. Now it has truly become a transition. With the current difficulty of the assessment, those who can pass the assessment smoothly are qualified as level six warriors or level five mages.

Karl glanced at his less than six-figure score and sighed slightly. These points were only enough for him to cultivate at full strength for two days. Although the sources of points in the territory had increased significantly, it was still not enough to achieve an average level five strength for everyone.

"It seems we have no choice but to put our physical conditioning on hold for now."

Carl glanced at his attributes, and sure enough, the data was correct.

[Cultivation: Peak Saint Realm (21,900/1,000,000) Wind Element (21,900/1,000,000)]

[Ability: Initial-stage Holy Body (21,900/5,000,000)]

"What a pity, with a battle aura increase of over 20,000 times, how come the strength increase is only so little?" Karl sighed.

Karl felt a little uncomfortable, but after thinking about it carefully, he came to his senses. Whether it was fighting spirit or profound mystery, without reaching the level of mastery, the accumulation in between was just an increase in quantity.

"Judging from the current situation, it is difficult for the increase of battle qi to bring about an improvement in strength. If you want to increase your strength, you still need to comprehend the laws."

Karl understood this. Cultivation is not a multiplication table, it's not that fighting spirit multiplied by profound mystery equals final damage. The strength improvement brought by fighting spirit may be more obvious below the Saint Realm, but once one's strength reaches the Saint Realm, fighting spirit can't keep up.

The difference between Battle Qi and Profound Mystery is simply the difference between lower and higher levels. This is similar to how a full-force attack from the mid-stage Saint Realm is no match for a casual strike from the peak Saint Realm. This is a fundamental difference.

This means that although Karl has made significant improvements to his already peak fighting spirit over the years, the difference in strength still depends on his comprehension of the profound mysteries.

"Perhaps my initial thoughts made some sense."

Karl's understanding of the profound is no longer superficial; although it's not very deep, he has at least gained some comprehension.

"One-fiftieth of the master level."

Carl squinted, his mind drifting to the short man from fifty years ago.

"That guy's strength was probably around this level back then."

The tone was somewhat uncertain, but the difference in strength was certainly not significant.
