Lin Chuan opened his talents and saw...
[Talents: [Ninjutsu: 6+] [Taijutsu: 5+] [Genjutsu: 3+] [Intelligence: 6+] [Strength: 4+] [Speed: 4+] [Chakra: 4+] [Hand seals: 6+] [Total: 38]]
Ninjutsu had gone up by one point, probably because a technique had broken through, raising his ninjutsu talent by one.
Intelligence had gone up by one point, probably because he had developed those Water Release techniques. After all, he had picked up some more strange knowledge.
Chakra had gone up by one point, and he immediately felt a substantial increase in his reserves—probably enough for two A-Rank Ninjutsu. He finally no longer had to worry about running out of chakra while grinding B-Rank Ninjutsu and could use them freely.
Hand seals had gone up by one point, indicating that his chakra control had improved again. Condensing water needles and water drops would only get easier, as would learning advanced techniques that demanded greater chakra control. More complex Yang Release Medical Ninjutsu, for instance, required extremely precise control.
His talents totaled thirty-eight points, putting him right around Sasuke's level during the Chunin Ninja Exams. Sasuke had thirty-seven points back then, while Shikamaru and Temari both had thirty-eight, so the difference was small. Thirty-eight talent points were enough to advance to Chunin, just as Shikamaru had.
His water-nature chakra transformation had gained over ten points. It seemed that playing around with Water Release shaping could raise its proficiency. He still needed to keep grinding the shaping of water weapons and armor.
Next, he opened his kunai throwing stats. Thanks to his constant Water Drop practice, his kunai throwing proficiency had risen quite a bit again.
[Throwing] [Kunai Fixed-Target Throwing (Limit break: 47760/100000)] [Kunai Moving-Target Throwing (Limit break: 37700/100000)] [Shuriken Manipulation Technique: (Beginner: 10/100)]
There had been little change in the basic
