The next day.
Afternoon.
The sun had just begun to slant west.
After more than six hours of training, Qian's "Sage Mode" advanced smoothly, just as expected, from lv2 (280/500) to lv3 (1/1000)!
At that moment, his understanding of "Sage Mode" rose another level.
This shortened the time it took him to enter "Sage Mode" and lengthened the time he could maintain it.
At the same time, the proficiency he gained for every hour of training increased again.
After Qian tested it, if he still maintained ten shadow clones, the proficiency he could gain each hour would reach fifty points.
The chakra and Natural Energy it consumed increased by another thirty thousand points, reaching one hundred and fifty thousand points.
However, to Qian, this still did not count for much.
On the other hand, its average consumption dropped to three thousand points.
Clearly, just as he had first predicted, as his "Sage Mode" leveled up, his control over this technique kept improving.
Correspondingly, the chakra and Natural Energy consumed for each point of proficiency he gained were also constantly decreasing.
Qian was quite pleased about this.
Gathering his thoughts, Qian stopped thinking about it. After resting briefly, he began training again.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
Afternoon.
After more than ten hours of training in total, Qian smoothly accumulated one thousand proficiency points, raising "Sage Mode" from lv3 to lv4.
Just like when it advanced from lv2 to lv3 yesterday, the instant its level rose, Qian's understanding of this technique climbed another step.
Correspondingly, the proficiency he could gain each hour rose from the fifty points he had gotten when he first entered lv2 to the current eighty points.
In that case, he would only need twenty-five hours to accumulate two thousand proficiency
