After Soro applied the [Flight] skill, he felt his speed wasn't much different from before; it was only a tiny bit faster.

The [Flight Enhancement] skill from last month was actually quite decent.

It had increased his flight speed by at least twofold.

The problem was... with a combat power of only 1000, even a twofold increase in speed didn't serve much of a purpose.

Then there were the [Tailoring] and [Bandaging] skills... which were even more ridiculous than the [Flight] skill.

He was a Saiyan, yet the system wanted him to have [Tailoring] skills?

The only skill that piqued Soro's interest was [Cooking].

To that end, Soro had specifically prepared a table full of sumptuous delicacies and shouted Whis's name loudly, hoping to attract him.

If he could follow Whis to Beerus's planet to train, that would be a shortcut to the pinnacle of his life.

He might even be able to unlock the Super Saiyan God form directly.

But things did not go as planned.

Whis did not come!

In the tenth month, Soro rolled the [Cooking Enhancement] skill and once again prepared a large table of sumptuous food.

Whis still did not come.

Was the food cooked with this skill not delicious enough, or had Whis simply not heard him at all?

However, the food cooked with this enhancement skill was indeed much tastier than what he had made last time.

It was even slightly better than the level of the royal chefs on this planet.

In the final month, Soro rolled the [X-Ray Vision] skill, and with nothing better to do, he spent quite a bit of time teasing the beautiful young women around him.

But using this kind of skill too often started to feel rather boring.

Besides, Soro was not lacking in beautiful women.

Furthermore, these skills refreshed every week, and once refreshed, the previous skill would disappear.

Skills that couldn't be retained were useless.

Even if he rolled a skill that increased combat power by 5000 times, if the skill disappeared the next month, wouldn't it just be a waste of excitement?

Calculating the time, today was exactly the start of the month, so what skill would refresh this month?

There was less than a minute left until 12:00 PM.

Soro's face was filled with anticipation.

Time quickly reached 12:00 PM.

Soro suddenly felt a jolt throughout his body, and his sleepiness vanished in an instant.

Skill Refresh!

[Combat Power × 50]

50 times combat power!

Wasn't that the same multiplier as activating a Super Saiyan?

Wahahahaha!

His current combat power was 1000!

With a 50-fold increase in combat power, wouldn't that be 50,000?

Hmm, although it was a bit low, it was enough to pin Vegeta to the ground and give him a sound thrashing!

"Is my combat power 50,000 now?" Soro muttered to himself.

The next moment, Soro suddenly glared at a rockery in the distance.

"BOOM!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the 10-meter-tall rockery was blasted into smithereens on the spot.

The two beautiful young women were scared out of their wits and hurriedly threw themselves into Soro's arms.

Soro widened his eyes, staring blankly at the shattered rockery with a look of astonishment on his face.

That was just the power unleashed from a single glare!

If he were to use his full strength...

He might even be able to blow up the entire planet!

One had to know that in the past, Soro's 1000 points of combat power didn't even have the ability to destroy this planet.

At most, he could only destroy a planet the size of the moon.

Of course, Soro wouldn't have nothing better to do than go around destroying planets.

Now that Soro possessed the [Combat Power × 50] skill, he felt he could finally start to take off.

If I were to take a trip to Earth and settle the score with that guy Vegeta, that would be a pretty good choice!

Just as Soro was thinking this, he suddenly noticed two circular slots had appeared in the lower right corner of his field of vision.

These slots were translucent and did not obstruct his sight at all.

One of the slots contained the [Combat Power ×50] skill, which bore the tag "Passive Skill."

The icon was circular, looking exactly like the skill icons used in video games.

The other slot was empty.

Apart from that, skills that had refreshed in the past—such as [Fishing], [Cooking], [Flight], [Fireball], [Flash], [Dancing], [Water Control], [Tailoring], [Bandaging], [Cooking Enhancement], [Flight Enhancement], and [X-Ray Vision]—had all turned into individual skill icons.

These skill icons drifted randomly through the air.

Soro rubbed his chin, then selected the [Flash] skill and placed it into the transparent slot.

"Snap!"

[Flash] fit tightly into the slot, and the words "Active Skill" helpfully appeared above it.

Soro didn't hesitate; he used his consciousness to activate the [Flash] skill.

"That was so scary just now... Lord Soro, do you think my eyes look pretty? I specifically used the colored contacts you mentioned today."

"And mine, and mine! My eyes have colored contacts too!"

Two exotic beauties crowded around Soro, bouncing up and down as they spoke.

Just then, a blinding light suddenly erupted from Soro's body.

"Ah... my eyes!"

The two beauties shrieked, hurriedly covering their eyes.

Soro: "..."

Soro was speechless.

Why did you have to make me look at your eyes right at this moment?

I really didn't do it on purpose...

Soro had used this [Flash] skill before and felt it had the same effect as the Solar Flare.

Moreover, [Flash] was more convenient to use than the Solar Flare.

Using the Solar Flare required the sun.

[Flash], however, could shine even in the dead of night.

The skill was instantaneous, had no cooldown, and could be used infinitely.

In other words, Soro could completely light up the entire night with this skill.

For a month, Soro had served as a long-term guiding light at night, even thoughtfully providing illumination for the women's bathhouse.

This was the reason Soro chose to keep this skill in the slot without hesitation.

Furthermore, with this skill, even if he couldn't beat someone, he could still use the opportunity to slip away.

This was a magical skill equivalent to the Solar Flare!

Back in the day, Cell had used the Solar Flare at least twice just to absorb the Androids.

The moment Soro placed the [Flash] skill into the slot, the other skills instantly turned into specks of starlight and vanished without a trace.

It seems that after a year, I can use two skills.

One is [Flash], and the other is [Combat Power ×50].

Soro felt pleased with himself.

Perhaps after another year of refreshing, there will be a few more skill slots?

Three days later.

Soro had gradually adapted to the special power brought by his 50,000 combat power.

50,000 combat power is truly something!

It gave Soro the feeling that the energy he had cultivated before was simply too low.

This was a 50-fold increase in one go!

Once I go to Earth, I'll have to get Bulma to build me a gravity training device.

Soro had just finished his training for the day when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a fireball streaking rapidly across the distant sky.

That is... a spaceship?
