My Talent Panel Can Add Points

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Frost Witch

”Knock knock knock!”

Not long after, a knock on the door sounded—it was the other members of the reserve team arriving.

”Come in.”

Tang Ruobing said.

Soon, a tall muscular man, standing at 1.9 meters, entered the training room. His presence was imposing; merely standing there, he resembled a mountain towering over everything. Undoubtedly, he was the Tank of the college entrance exam reserve team.

The reserve team consisted of five members: a Warrior, a Tank, a Mage, a Support, and the last one could either be an Assassin or a Shooter.

Ye Mingqiu believed it would most likely be a Shooter, as the core of this team was Tang Ruobing, a Mage, and Assassin System excelled at covert pursuit and assassination, which offered little help in battles involving Support Magic System. Shooter System arrows could provide additional debuffs and supplement team output while sharing the assassination pressure, making their role much more significant than that of an Assassin.

The muscular man glanced at Tang Ruobing and met her cold gaze; his body trembled as memories of unpleasant past occurrences flashed through his mind.

Thus, he quickly redirected his sight and approached Ye Mingqiu, who was waving the magic staff on the side, and warmly said, ”Hey, brother, how are you? I’m Lei Peng, the Tank of our team.”

”Nice to meet you, I’m Ye Mingqiu, from the Support System.” Ye Mingqiu politely replied.

”Oh, so you’re from the Support System. I’ve heard that it’s pretty tough; the initial attributes must prioritize Spirit, and other attributes are generally low, making the Spirit Realm trials really challenging.” Lei Peng sighed.

”It’s definitely tough.” Ye Mingqiu also lamented.

In truth, not all Support System professions prioritize Spirit as the primary attribute, though those that do are the most prevalent, hence Spirit being the primary attribute of the Support System.

Support professions with Constitution as the primary attribute do exist and have a higher probability of passing the Spirit Realm trials, so occasionally, there are cases of Tanks transitioning to Support, though such cases are rare. If all Support System professions had Constitution as their primary attribute, perhaps 98% would all turn into Tanks.

The already scarce Support System would become even more scarce.

”Brother, you’ve got some guts, training in her exclusive room; aren’t you afraid...”

Lei Peng leaned beside Ye Mingqiu and whispered, but halfway through, he felt a sharp gaze akin to an arrow directed at him, awkwardly turning his head, thinking: Isn’t Tang Ruobing in meditation? How is she noticing me talking? I’m clearly far away, and speaking softly, how could she detect anything I say?

”What did you say?”

Tang Ruobing questioned.

”N-nothing.”

Lei Peng replied timidly, not daring to meet Tang Ruobing’s eyes, simultaneously casting a pleading look at Ye Mingqiu, looking utterly pitiful.

”He said he wants to exchange contact information, after all, we’re teammates, being united is always good.” Ye Mingqiu smoothly interjected with a smile.

”Oh.”

Tang Ruobing responded briefly and continued her meditation, not saying much else.

”Phew~”

Lei Peng breathed a sigh of relief and gratefully glanced at Ye Mingqiu, as if saying: You’re a real bro, daring to speak up like this.

Ye Mingqiu merely smiled.

He led Lei Peng to the corner to exchange contact info using the communication device and said, ”Actually, she is reasonable. I came early and thought just sitting there would be a waste, so I decided to use her training area, and told her in advance, which is why I can train here.”

Of course, of course, this was a lie.

Ye Mingqiu hadn’t informed Tang Ruobing beforehand about training here; it was merely because Tang Ruobing hadn’t acknowledged him.

”Oh, that’s why; both of you have Spiritual Talent, and can use the magic staff. Plus, your exclusive training room might not have been approved yet, and she must have taken this into account and let you train in her room,” Lei Peng suddenly realized.

However, he quickly playfully nudged Ye Mingqiu with his broad and strong shoulder, saying, ”But you’ve got some guts, daring to talk to her like this; I wouldn’t dare speak myself.”

”Ah? Why?”

”Why? Because...”

Lei Peng instinctively wanted to speak, but feared Tang Ruobing noticing, instead secretly pulled out his communication device and discreetly typed.

She’s the legendary Frost Witch, known for completing tasks during Spirit Realm trials by annihilating a nation single-handedly. She still carries the ”Nation Destroyer” title; you ask why I fear her? Do you know how powerful this person is?

After typing, Lei Peng deleted the edited message from his phone.

What a joke, there’s no way he’d send it!

Meanwhile, Ye Mingqiu fell into contemplation.

Nation Destroyer?

He suddenly remembered a past conversation with Tang Ruobing, where she inadvertently mentioned if she faced particularly challenging tasks during completion, tasks her intellect couldn’t resolve, she could resolve the individuals causing the problems.

So, should she kill the person who created the problem just to complete the task?

Ye Mingqiu said should.

She then asked if an entire nation’s leadership was utterly corrupt, should she join an assassin organization to eliminate the entire country’s leaders, even though this could lead to the nation’s downfall.

Ye Mingqiu said should.

She continued, asking what if to complete Spirit Realm trials one must kill many people, including not only greedy ministers but also innocent soldiers?

Ye Mingqiu answered: When soldiers choose to protect the ministers, they cease to be innocent; during an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

That day, they chatted on this topic for a long time.

Now, upon reflection, beneath her cold and resilient exterior, perhaps there’s a tender, gentle heart seeking comfort from others under disguise.

”Now you know fear, right?”

Lei Peng laughing beside him said.

”It’s alright; Spirit Realm trials will present various situations, some good, some bad. If a nation’s situation is dire, corrupt ministers and a depraved emperor, destruction could be a form of relief.” Ye Mingqiu replied with a smile.

”Uh?”

”Talk about your profession then, or casually mention Spirit Realm trials too.”

”Ah, profession!”

Lei Peng instantly appeared spirited, standing tall with immense pride and joy, saying, ”My profession is Holy Knight, a Lord Level profession, with a Hero’s Advanced Path as a Holy Knight, impressive huh?”

”Very impressive!”

Ye Mingqiu sincerely praised.

A Lord Level Tank, with potential for Hero Level advancement, is incredibly strong at the high school level, truly worthy of being part of the college entrance exam reserve team’s top-tier Tank, living up to the reputation.

I need to complete the Spirit Realm trials soon too and acquire a Hero Level profession!
