In fact, crafting Holy Marks had made Li more patient, and patience was also an indispensable path to becoming strong.
Although Li no longer sought out Iruka very often, Iruka had been paying close attention to Li during this time. He often asked Buma all sorts of questions to probe into Li's preferences, and Li later discovered that many dishes he liked had suddenly begun appearing in his meals.
This greatly surprised Li. Though he was surprised, his patience was exceptionally abundant at this moment. He actually suppressed his curiosity and did not ask Iruka, while Iruka had no intention of telling Li what medicine he had taken wrong either.
Of course, Li had no idea just how terrifying the low-grade Holy Mark he had made was.
That Holy Mark had already been tested. It increased speed by thirty-three percent.
That was right—thirty-three percent speed. Previously, even the most perfect low-grade speed Holy Mark could only increase speed by thirty percent!
What did that represent? It meant that this Holy Mark was currently the finest low-grade speed Holy Mark.
Moreover, because Li had been in an inexplicable state of mind at the time, this Holy Mark had extremely perfect load-bearing optimization, and it was also highly compatible with other Holy Marks.
After being tested by those Archmages and a Magister at the time, they ultimately concluded that this Holy Mark could be overlaid onto other Holy Marks! This would save a tremendous amount of Holy Mark capacity space.
The number of Holy Marks a person—or rather, a living creature—could bear mainly depended on how much load-bearing capacity and capacity space they possessed.
Load-bearing capacity was akin to carrying weight. Every Holy Mark consumed a certain amount of it. If the limit was exceeded, the Holy Marks could kill the person.
