After thinking for a moment, Kairos opened the system's Personal Attribute Panel.

Although his combat power had not increased by much, it had still risen somewhat. Simply fighting others and learning various skills had rewarded him with several thousand points of combat power.

He had defeated the Ox-King, Master Shen, and Tao Pai Pai—three fairly formidable martial artists—completing the achievement for ten battles. Then he had defeated three fairly powerful monsters...

That slight increase was not important. What mattered was that he had obtained ten chances to draw beginner-level skills. Kairos had saved them all until now without using any.

After all, he could first learn every skill available to him, then make the draws afterward. Perhaps that would eliminate skills he already knew from the pool.

Even if duplicates appeared, Kairos had his own ideas. They might directly raise a skill's proficiency, allow him to redraw, or perhaps even grant extra rewards.

The skills he had learned included every technique of the Crane School.

Crane School Fighting Style, Four-Witch Technique, Solar Flare, Dodon Ray, Tri-Beam, Psychokinesis Wave, Hard Qigong, and Levitation Technique.

(PS: Of the Crane School's skills, only the Four-Body Fist was explicitly stated to have been created by Tien Shinhan; the rest can be considered Master Shen's creations. After all, Tien Shinhan used most of these techniques early on, and many were never given specific background settings. For instance, some say Master Shen created Solar Flare and the Four-Witch Technique, while others say Tien Shinhan created them. I'm standardizing it here, so please don't dwell on it. If anyone has official information, feel free to let me know in the comments.)

Faced with Kairos's strength and cunning, Master Shen and Tao Pai Pai had no choice but to teach him.

They had been stunned by Kairos's power.

Tao Pai Pai had been scared senseless. As a killer who loved showing off, he had barely put on an act before being instantly defeated in a single move.

Master Shen had been afraid at first as well. But after learning that the old turtle had taught all his techniques to Kairos, this terrifying rising talent, he did not want his own skills to be buried and surpassed. As a result, he taught with even more sincerity than Master Roshi.

Kairos did not particularly dislike Master Shen. The important thing was that the man truly taught him without holding anything back.

Frankly speaking, Kairos felt that Master Shen understood life more clearly than Master Roshi did.

Although the original story portrayed him as sinister, cunning, and capable of every evil, even threatening his disciples.

There was a saying that put it well.

Every man for himself, or heaven and earth would destroy him.

With power and status, why could he not act a little arrogantly?

His only loss was that he was destined to be an early-story villain in the original work.

Besides the Crane School's techniques, Kairos had also learned Eightfold Collapse Fist, One-Inch Punch, and Snake Fist from the three martial artists he encountered.

All three martial arts were quite good, and the system recognized them as skills.

This was enough to show that, aside from Master Roshi and Master Shen, Earth in the Dragon Ball world also had quite a few great martial arts masters. They were simply weaker.

After all, Master Shen and Master Roshi were both three-hundred-year-old monsters. How could those who had trained for only a few decades compare?

Later, after defeating the three mountain spirits, Kairos also learned Fire Breath, Berserk, and Air Wave from them.

Fire Breath converted qi into tangible flames for attacks.

Berserk stimulated one's aura and sent the user into a frenzied state, greatly increasing their strength.

Air Wave was similar to the Tri-Beam, yet different.

It could be large or small, allowing one to unleash invisible air waves according to one's will.

All in all, he now possessed twenty-one Skill Proficiency Upgrade Cards, enough to freely raise any skill he wanted to improve.

In fact, during these ten days, Kairos had also defeated some people with combat power levels of around ten or twenty points. Yet defeating those targets had not triggered any achievements.

For example, he had sparred with the young Tien Shinhan, who had already joined the Crane School, but had not earned an achievement.

Therefore, Kairos ultimately concluded that a target's strength had to reach a certain level—perhaps exceeding fifty points—before the system would recognize it.

It was worth mentioning that Tien Shinhan, born in Age 733, was only a little over four years old, yet he was already sturdy and strong, far surpassing children his age.

More importantly, his battle power had exceeded 10 points, reaching a full 15!

As a mixed-blood Three-Eyed Person, it was no wonder Master Shen had taken a liking to him and accepted him as a disciple.

As for Chiaotzu and Yurin, who would not appear until the late stages of Dragon Ball Super, neither of them had been born yet.

After closing the system's personal attributes interface, Kairos rose from the ground and lightly stretched his body.

These past ten days had truly been grueling beyond belief, with almost no time to rest.

Otherwise, there was no way he could have gained so much.

With so many skills alone, it would have been difficult for anyone else to master even half of them.

Even if one's battle power had reached such heights, talent and comprehension did not simply become strong enough to let someone learn everything at a glance.

In the end, it was all thanks to the Eye of Insight.

With the Eye of Insight's assistance, Kairos had been able to master each technique so quickly.

"It's about time I made a trip to Kami's Lookout. While I'm at it, I can ask Mr. Popo and Kami where Shaolin Temple is." Muttering to himself, Kairos slowly rose into the air.

Kairos had no idea where Shaolin Temple was. At least, during his travels, he had never heard of it.

If he had not suddenly remembered it, he would have overlooked it entirely.

If the Shaolin Temple in the Dragon Ball world also possessed seventy-two supreme techniques, that would mean seventy-two skills.
