The instant Chen Zhengyang sheathed his saber, an icy voice rang directly in his mind:
[Watched the Five Tiger Severing Gate Saber Technique demonstration. Proficiency +1!] [Detected partial overlap with the mastered 'Basic Saber Technique.' Initiating merge... Merge complete!] [Current Cultivation Method: Basic Saber Technique Proficiency 9000/15000. (Five Tiger Severing Gate Saber Technique traits not unlocked!)]
Fang Yuan was thunderstruck! He had never imagined that merely watching a demonstration could increase proficiency!
And it had even caused his Basic Saber Technique to evolve! What had originally required only ten thousand proficiency points had now soared to fifteen thousand!!

As the panel's information flashed past, a vast number of insights flowed into his mind like streams converging into a river.

How to adjust his breathing to match the rise and fall of the saber's momentum, how to twist the strength of his whole body into a single cord and gather it upon the blade's edge!
"Fiercer than a tiger, more savage than a tiger!" An epiphany exploded in his heart.
This Five Tiger Severing Gate Saber Technique truly followed
