Dominating the Pugilistic World With My Detective Skills - Chapter 41

Chapter 41: Dragon-Phoenix Sword

Dragon-Phoenix Sword (intermediate): An extremely recondite sword skill of the pugilistic world. The moves seemed fierce and vicious but it is actually a skill based on defense and protection. Even if you’re facing an opponent that is much more powerful than you, you will be able to protect yourself from any danger. Cultivation requirements: Intelligence 25, Enlightenment 25, Physique 70, Arm strength 60.

There didn’t seem to be any problems with this sword skill on the surface.

But, based on Ye Weiming’s many years of gaming experience, he knew that all techniques had their flaws. Most of the time, when the description emphasized solely on a single advantage, it was to hide the flaws in the other areas.

The description of this ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’ kept praising its self-defense ability as if you would become impenetrable once you practiced it. Ye Weiming believed that it did have a strong self-defense ability but its offensive ability must be negligible. If it didn’t have such an obvious flaw, the system wouldn’t have recognized it as an intermediate sword skill. If there was no such flaw, it should at least be an advanced sword skill!

Ye Weiming always believed that the strongest would win the battle. Thus, he wasn’t interested in this kind of self-defense sword skill.

The reply You Jin gave to Ye Weiming’s reasonable appeal was, “Once the rewards for a mission have been given out, you can’t change it for whatever reasons.”

As if I will believe you, you sneaky fellow who always hides half the truth! You’re so evil!

Ye Weiming patted his hands and learned the ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’. Then he rushed out of the Divine Constable Bureau without bidding a single farewell. He only left a handsome back view of his head for You Jin.

A real man will never turn back to look at a pervert!

After leaving the Divine Constable Bureau, Ye Weiming directly went to the Military Weapon Armoury that wasn’t far away.

The Military Weapon Armoury belonged to the imperial court directly. It was in charge of crafting weapons for the country’s army. There were many skilled craftsmen inside. The assistant officer, Tie Zhi, was the best craftsman among them. He was the man Ye Weiming wanted to find.

When he came to the entrance of the Military Weapon Armoury, Ye Weiming showed the NPC his token of authority. The NPC guarding the door went in to inform his superiors of his arrival. Ye Weiming was then invited into a room so that he could wait there. After some time, a man wearing the uniform of the Emei Sect walked into the room. When he saw Ye Weiming, he immediately smiled and went forward. “Are you Ye Weiming from the Divine Constable Bureau?”

Ye Weiming nodded and looked at the fellow in front of him who was dressed weirdly. He frowned and asked, “Who are you?”

“Swordsman Wind Lightning from the Emei Sect.”

The moment Ye Weiming heard his name, he knew that this was a player. However, were there male disciples in the Emei Sect? Ye Weiming expressed that he had never seen any male disciples there before.

Swordsman Wind Lightning seemed to notice the astonishment on Ye Weiming’s face. He explained helplessly, “Many people think that the Emei Sect only takes in female disciples but they have male disciples too. However, the founder of the Emei Sect is a female so the kung fu she passed down is more suitable for females to master. Under normal circumstances, male players won’t enter the Emei Sect. The sect isn’t a good choice for them.”

“Then you…”

“I came for the miscellaneous skills.” Swordsman Wind Lightning smiled lightly and continued, “In the Emei Sect, the male disciples are in charge of all the miscellaneous works. Thus, many teachers can teach us. Your clan doesn’t have homework?

Bury Moon: I XXX, You XXX…

Ye Weiming placed Bury Moon on his blacklist again when he cursed at him. Then, he summarized all the information his friends gave.

If you want to increase your Intelligence, you need to study. You want to increase your Intelligence? I’m sorry, I want to increase my Intelligence too!

Ye Weiming arrived at the private school of Bian Liang City. He realized that all the books here had a price tagged to them.

Book of Family Names: 100 Gold!

Standards for Being a Good Student: 300 Gold!

Three-Character Classic: 300 Gold!

The Doctrine of the Mean: 3000 Gold!

The Analects of Confucius: 4000 Gold!

When he saw the price of these classics, Ye Weiming looked at the pitiful 20 Gold he had in his bag. He felt that his mood was turning for the worst.

The Book of Family Names was 100 Gold and the Thousand-Character Classic was 1000 Gold. Did this mean that their books here were priced using the number of words?

That means that each word was 1 Gold!

Who said that the poor study while the rich learn martial arts? Who? Come forward! I promise that I won’t beat you to death!
