My Gang of Swordsmen

Chapter 377: Chapter 143: Instant Kill Again! [Talent Fusion]

In the past, Aoto was also puzzled—after he already possessed the Divine-level Talent of ”Sword Genius,” what would happen if he acquired another talent of the same type?

The introduction to the system said: he wouldn’t possess the same talent.

This statement was undoubtedly too vague.

What does it mean to not possess the same talent? Does it mean that after possessing a certain talent, the same type of talent can’t be replicated or held? Or does it mean that talents with the exact same content won’t be acquired again?

And now, this question finally got answered.

He indeed couldn’t possess the same talent.

But talents of the same type can actually fuse together!

After ”Sword Genius” fused with ”Swordsman with Minor Achievement” that he just copied from Morioka, the name of the talent remained ”Sword Genius,” but its capabilities had enhanced due to the fusion.

Now, Aoto’s swordsmanship talent has surpassed Chokata, becoming 55 times that of an ordinary person!

Shocked by the sudden joy, Aoto stared blankly at his personal system interface.

After a while, Aoto gradually snapped back to reality.

It wasn’t until he snapped back to reality that Aoto realized—his mouth was open wide with excitement and thrill.

——Talents can fuse with each other...

——That also means... theoretically speaking, my swordsmanship talent or any martial arts talent could be stacked to hundreds or thousands of times that of an ordinary person...

Aoto’s fists unconsciously clenched.

The excitement and thrill on his face grew even stronger.

At this moment, Aoto suddenly realized: the system he possessed was far more powerful than he had imagined before!

...

...

After the first round of elimination rounds, the average quality of the competitors naturally improved quite a bit in the second round.

The improvement in average quality made the battles more intense and fierce.

On average, the time used for each battle was significantly longer than in the first round.

After spending nearly an hour, the second round of elimination rounds finally concluded.

With half of the people eliminated again, the remaining twenty or so competitors advanced to the third round of elimination rounds.

This time, Aoto’s sign wasn’t drawn first again.

If it were already the third round of elimination rounds and his sign was drawn first again... then Aoto thought he should go to Ryogoku-dori or some other entertainment street to try his luck.

However, with the number of competitors already quite scarce in the third round of elimination rounds, whether or not you were drawn first didn’t make much of a difference—because it would soon be your turn to go onstage anyway.

”Natural Reasoning Heart Stream, Shiwei Hall, Tachibana Aoto!”

After 3 matches, Aoto’s sign was finally drawn by the announcer.

After loudly announcing Aoto’s name, the announcer drew the next sign from the box... that is, Aoto’s opponent for the third round.

”Beichen One-Sword Style, Xuanwu Hall, Tsuzaki Heiyo!”

Following Morioka, Aoto once again faced someone from the ”Three Heroes”!

Bursting with updates, 10,000 words for the third consecutive day!

Although this update is still a few hundred words short of 10,000, let’s consider it 10,000 (crying leopard head emoji)

The previous Chapter was also a few hundred words short of 10,000, and combined with the few hundred words from this Chapter, I’ll try to burst with 12,000 tomorrow to make up for it...

The author has been so diligent and conscientious these past few days, not getting any monthly tickets would really be unfair! (crying leopard head emoji)

Today’s burst update is to repay the shortfall to the fourth Alliance Leader: [My Little Cotton-Padded Jacket].

This reader has rewarded the book with two Alliance Leaders, so I still owe ”My Little Cotton-Padded Jacket” one 10,000-word burst update.

Currently, the author owes 14 Chapters of 10,000-word burst updates.
