Powerful Skills

Upon learning from a system message that Yan Hua Yi Leng had transferred to the Ice Spirit Archer class, Ye Luo was also happy for her. After all, through their brief interaction, he knew she was quite adept at strategizing in combat, and the Ice-element Hidden Profession was the most suitable for her.

Afterward, Ye Luo also perked up and headed towards Blacksmith Sun's shop. After handing over more than 40 Wolf Fangs, he received 18,000 energy experience, 18 silver coins, and 100 Novice Village favorability. The high experience allowed him to reach level 10, but what excited him even more was obtaining an equipment piece he didn't currently possess:

[Wolf Tooth Necklace] (Necklace—Common Equipment)

Attack: 18—20 Durability: 100—100 Required Level: 9

This was a piece of equipment with very strong attack power. Ye Luo hurriedly equipped it, and his attack power increased significantly, finally breaking the hundred mark.

"My attack has reached 107—113. I doubt anyone in the entire Novice Village has higher attack than me. My defense has also reached 57—62. Now I can kill Young Demon Wolves by myself," Ye Luo said confidently.

Remembering something more important, he checked the blacksmith shop's equipment and found an Iron Sword with a +3 attack bonus. Upon closer inspection, he learned it required 10 silver coins. Due to his high Novice Village favorability, he received a 25% discount.

"A 25% discount, that'll save me some money," Ye Luo muttered. Seeing that his level had reached 10, he planned to accept the transfer quest after meeting up with Yan Hua Yi Leng.

That Iron Sword offered a +3 attack bonus. While it was slightly better than the Novice Iron Sword, the mere 2-point attack increase wasn't something Ye Luo cared much about, so he didn't waste money buying it.

He went to the tailor shop at their agreed-upon location, and Yan Hua Yi Leng happened to arrive there as well. Looking at her, Ye Luo's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

At this moment, Yan Hua Yi Leng was wearing form-fitting leather armor that accentuated her curvaceous figure. Her **, delicate arms, and beautiful legs were revealed, exuding a wild charm that made her breathtakingly beautiful. Yet, this wild attire, combined with Yan Hua Yi Leng's indifferent demeanor, created a unique sense of beauty.

"The Flying Snow Robe has turned into leather armor," Ye Luo quickly noticed.

"It transformed into leather armor the moment I transferred to an Archer, and the strength it previously added has now become agility," Yan Hua Yi Leng said calmly, as if sensing Ye Luo's confusion. She continued, "Leather armor primarily adds agility, heavy armor primarily adds strength, and cloth armor primarily adds intelligence. This is the game's design."

Nodding, Ye Luo sensed her power slightly and said, "I feel like you've become much stronger. Facing you, I feel a sense of suppression."

"My Soul Crystal has been upgraded and has a tier-based suppression, which is why you feel that way," Yan Hua Yi Leng replied. She didn't know why she was explaining these things to someone she had only recently met. "After transferring, the growth of the Soul Crystal is enhanced, and one's strength will experience a qualitative leap."

"I seem to have heard before that attribute growth changes after transferring. Tell me about your current growth potential," Ye Luo said casually.

"Strength: 2 stars, Agility: 5 stars, Constitution: 2 stars, Intelligence: 2 stars. After transferring, your attributes before level 10 will be compensated according to your potential growth," Yan Hua Yi Leng didn't hide anything. She added, "I've always put all my points into agility, so my attack speed is slightly faster than yours, my critical hit rate is higher, and my evasion rate is higher, but my attack power is significantly weaker."

"Good heavens, attribute growth is doubled! No wonder they say you become exceptionally powerful after transferring." Ye Luo exclaimed, then noticed something and his eyes lit up. "Your HP is 420, it seems to have increased quite a bit too."

"My Martial Soul Crystal has upgraded from its initial state to quasi-tier 1, adding 200 HP and 200 MP," Yan Hua Yi Leng said. Then, remembering something, she continued, "The agility growth for ordinary Archers is 4 stars, while the growth for the other three attributes is the same as mine. Because I am a Hidden Profession, my agility growth is 1 point higher. Additionally, the attribute growth for other types of Soul Crystals is similar to Martial Souls."

Frowning slightly, Ye Luo said, "So, the strength growth for ordinary Battle Soul Crystals is also 4 points. No wonder they say Hidden Professions are much more powerful; their growth is 1 star higher. By the way, Long Teng Tian Xia became a Blazing Swordsman. His strength growth is also 5, right?"

"Yes, that's correct. His growth for other attributes is 2 stars. He has already publicized this information, and it's available online," Yan Hua Yi Leng nodded slightly. "Hidden Professions not only have higher attribute growth but also possess powerful skills."

Hearing this, Ye Luo finally remembered that Yan Hua Yi Leng already had combat skills and asked, "How many skills have you learned? Are they very powerful?"

Nodding, Yan Hua Yi Leng's lips curved slightly, a rare occurrence. However, she was wearing a mask, so outsiders couldn't notice. She then created a skill catalog and showed it to Ye Luo:

[Archery Mastery] (Passive Skill * Cannot be Upgraded) Skill Description: Basic Archer skill. After learning, you can use bows and arrows, increasing basic damage of archery skills by 10%.

[Ice Spirit Power] (Passive Skill * Novice) Skill Description: Exclusive skill for Ice Spirit Archers. After learning, energy arrows shot will carry Ice attribute power, dealing an additional 10 Ice attribute damage and slowing the target by 5%.

[Frozen Arrow] (Active Skill * Novice) Skill Description: The Ice Spirit Archer condenses an energy arrow with frost power, dealing 110% damage to the target. The frost power can also freeze the target for 1 second, preventing movement. Consumes 50 MP. Cooldown: 20 seconds. Skill Proficiency: Novice 0/(1000/Cast Interval)

[Accuracy] (Passive Skill * Cannot be Upgraded) Skill Description: Universal skill. After learning, Accuracy increases by 20%.

Looking at these four skills, Ye Luo was dumbfounded. He murmured, "So powerful! With the Ice Spirit Power skill, I doubt any monster could catch up to you. And these are just novice skills; they'll be even more formidable at higher levels. Frozen Arrow is also a very powerful control skill. Very good."

"Yes, these two skills are quite good," Yan Hua Yi Leng said. The powerful skills made her slightly pleased. "But I prefer the last skill rewarded by the system. Originally, ranged professions had slightly lower accuracy than melee professions, but with this skill, that weakness is completely compensated for."

Nodding, Ye Luo recalled something Yan Hua Yi Leng had said earlier and asked, "Yan Hua, what did you mean when you said your attributes before level 10 would be compensated after you transferred?"

"It means that the growth before transferring will also be calculated based on your post-transfer potential. For example, if my agility growth before level 10 was 2 points, and after transferring it's 5 points, then the Soul Crystal will add 30 points of agility. It's the same for other attributes," Yan Hua Yi Leng explained. Seeing Ye Luo's astonished expression, she continued, "Now you understand why there's such a big difference between transferring and not transferring, right? It's because of the significant attribute gap."

Nodding heavily, Ye Luo said, "It seems I should transfer as soon as possible, otherwise I'll hold you back."

"After you help me buy those clothes, you can go accept the transfer quest, and then I'll take you to do the quests," Yan Hua Yi Leng said, transferring 10 gold coins to Ye Luo as she spoke.

"Okay," Ye Luo nodded and then asked, "As far as I know, you still need 990 pieces of Novice Clothes, but our inventory space only has..."

Equipment cannot be stacked like medicinal herbs or certain quest items. Ye Luo and Yan Hua Yi Leng's inventory space was only 20 slots, and some of these were already occupied by elixirs and other items, making it far from enough.

"I've looked into this. When purchasing items in large quantities, players are rented a large Cosmic Bag with 1000 slots, which is enough," Yan Hua Yi Leng stated, her tone quite calm. "However, this kind of Cosmic Bag cannot be taken out of the Novice Village, and it requires a rental fee of one gold coin, with a rental period of only 3 days."

"One gold coin, that's too expensive. In the early stages of the game, not many people can afford to rent it," Ye Luo muttered. Without delay, he quickly communicated with Tailor Zhang and purchased 990 pieces of clothing, which made Tailor Zhang beam with joy.

Just as Yan Hua Yi Leng had said, Tailor Zhang suggested Ye Luo rent a Cosmic Bag. However, considering Ye Luo's high Novice Village favorability and the fact that he was buying so many items at once, he only charged 50 as the rental fee.

After trading the Cosmic Bag and the remaining gold coins to Yan Hua Yi Leng, Ye Luo said, "You go exchange for the Novice Clothes. I'll go accept the quest, and then we..."

"Beep... beep..."

As he was speaking, a communicator suddenly rang. Ye Luo gave Yan Hua Yi Leng an apologetic look before answering. A voice like a silver bell came through, "Brother Ye, it's already nighttime. The takeout I ordered has arrived. Hurry up and log off."

After saying that, she hung up without giving Ye Luo a chance to explain. Fei Tian Yue, who was in Ye Luo's friend list, also quickly turned gray, indicating she was offline.

"Miss Yan Hua, I'm sorry, I..."

"You should be eating by now," Yan Hua Yi Leng interrupted, as if knowing what Ye Luo was about to say. "Go ahead. It'll take quite some time to exchange novice equipment anyway. I'll be done about half an hour after you log in, and then we can hunt monsters and level up together."

"Don't you eat?" Ye Luo asked, confused.

"Professional players only eat twice a day. Besides, Sister Feng said girls shouldn't eat too much at night, or they'll get fat," Yan Hua Yi Leng said calmly, looking around. "Quite a few people have already completed their job change quests. You can't be in the top three anymore, so there's no need to push yourself so hard. Go eat."

Nodding, Ye Luo agreed on a time and meeting place before logging out of the game.

He glanced at the clock and saw it was already 7 PM. As he headed towards the living room, Ye Luo muttered to himself, "Time really flies. Seven hours have passed in the blink of an eye... in the game..."

"Hehe, that's right. If I hadn't set an alarm, I might have missed the time too," Zhi Yue said with a playful giggle, brimming with excitement. "Brother Ye, I've already become a Summoner! It's a shame I didn't finish the job change quest in the top three, so there weren't any special rewards."

"I'm barely level 10 myself and haven't even accepted the job change quest yet," Ye Luo replied while eating his takeout. His tone then shifted. "But I should be able to change jobs soon after eating. Yan Hua Yi Leng changed to a Hidden Profession, and she's very powerful. She can handle killing Young Demon Wolves without any problem."

"What, you found Sister Yan Hua? That's great..."
