My Talent Panel Can Add Points

Chapter 311: Chapter 165: Old Hei: Damn, That’s Cheating!

”Clang, clang, clang!”

In an instant, sparks flew as spear and lance intertwined, dancing and spinning. Old Hei forcefully deflected Ye Mingqiu’s attack, creating a slight distance as he furrowed his brow.

Something is off!

This guy is very unusual!

As a powerhouse skilled in technique, Old Hei could clearly sense the dissonance emanating from Ye Mingqiu. Although he could perfectly block his attacks, he couldn’t launch a strong enough effective counterattack, indicating a significant disparity between his technique and judgment.

What about this?

Old Hei advanced once more, the Black Gold Long Spear carving a dark shadow. He interwove openings within his attack, fixating on the reaction of the Divine Monarch, his nerves stretched to their limits.

Because he had a theory, a hypothesis so bold it made him feel a twinge of fear.

”Clang!”

Ye Mingqiu swung his Blood Spear in retaliation. In the scope of Innate Perception, Old Hei’s form exposed a flaw, and his subsequent attack trajectory was precisely veering towards breaching that flaw.

The truth was obvious; it was an opening Old Hei had deliberately left, intending to lure the enemy deeper.

Then, ready to advance, he swiftly adjusted his attack trajectory. The Blood Spear sliced through the air, dancing with a fierce sound, delivering a series of rapid thrusts, the crimson shadow instantly filling the battlefield.

Subsequently, the Blood Spear and Black Gold Long Spear clashed briefly again, the crimson shadow tracing along the flaw towards Old Hei’s neck, only to be intercepted by the spear, leaving a slender wound across his face.

Old Hei wiped off the blood from his face, the sting was nothing compared to the shock within. Through this test, he uncovered a frightening fact.

Ye Mingqiu’s Talent... is Future Sight!

He can directly foresee my attack trajectory!

This is simply cheating, isn’t it?

No, the future he sees doesn’t extend very far. This should only be a passive activation of Future Sight, not an actively used skill. So it’s not breaking the rules... But even so, Future Sight is still incredibly overpowered in a duel of techniques.

After briefly calming himself, Old Hei squinted his eyes and said, ”Divine Monarch, even though you are not skilled in technique, your Talent is terrifying. Even the top technique powerhouses would find it difficult to gain an advantage over you.”

”Regret it?”

Ye Mingqiu asked.

His combat skills were not as refined as Old Hei’s, only his combat instinct was stronger, and his Innate Perception slightly keener. The opponent’s idea of improving combat skills through this sparring might fall short to some extent.

After all, this wasn’t a normal fierce battle, and his combat style was far from ordinary.

Old Hei chuckled and said, ”No, of course not. Quite the opposite, I’m more excited now than before, my eagerness for battle even more intense. I’ve always desired to fight new types of enemies to further my growth.”

”Although you’re not adept in technique, your overall technical strength is formidable, very formidable, surpassing all the enemies I’ve faced before. If they encountered you, even without an attribute disadvantage, they would ultimately fall. But I’m different... I will claim victory my own way!”

”Then, I look forward to it.”

Ye Mingqiu said with a smile.

....

In the sparring arena, Old Hei’s voice wasn’t quiet. The spiritualists in the audience could hear it clearly, though they could hear, they couldn’t understand.

’What does it mean not adept in technique, but with strong overall technical strength? Isn’t that being skilled in technique?’

Such doubts arose in many audience members’ minds. They couldn’t grasp what Old Hei meant, nor why he evaluated Ye Mingqiu in such a manner.

Even Lu, who knew Ye Mingqiu, couldn’t comprehend why Old Hei spoke like this during the battle, nor discern what was special about the Divine Monarch.

”You seemed to have some guesses?”

Lu asked, looking at Qing Yu, who was frowning beside him.

”A bit, when I was fighting against the Divine Monarch before, I felt that anomaly. He seemed to detect my every attack intention. If it weren’t for my agility being fast enough, my attacks being cautious enough, and having enough life-saving equipment, I couldn’t have lasted under his hand for that long.”

Qing Yu replied.

”Perceiving attack intentions? You mean...”

Lu’s expression shifted as a terrifying conjecture emerged in his heart.

”Top S-Level Talent, Future Sight.”

Qing Yu squinted and continued, ”The vision of Future Sight allows him to observe the opponent’s attack paths, discerning the enemy’s intentions. Consequently, the flaw Old Hei deliberately left resulted in his face being cut, because... that was the flaw he intentionally exposed.”

”Indeed, accurately seeing the future differs from the real-time judgment of a technique powerhouse. By simulating the same situation, a conclusion can indeed be reached.”

Lu nodded slightly and said.

”But that’s just it; next, Old Hei will showcase his real skills, and that’s not something a passive Future Sight can handle.” Qing Yu said with a smile.

....

”Hoo~”

In the arena, Old Hei took a gentle breath. His spiritual energy showed no change, yet a layer of invisible force enveloped his body, the intangible momentum causing his black hair to drift slowly, while the Black Gold Long Spear began to radiate a brilliant golden light.

On the other side of the battlefield, Ye Mingqiu’s expression changed dramatically, thinking: This feeling, so familiar, it’s the momentum the Old Beast Monarch demonstrated to me!

This guy has actually mastered momentum!
