However, no matter how good Critical Strike was, the short pause needed to unleash the strike meant that Lu Chen had to be careful in using it.
Feeling the special technique, a thought suddenly crossed Lu Chenâs mind.
Critical Strike is a special technique to unleash my strength. If through an extensive period of training and familiarizing myself with it, will I be able to master the technique and totally get rid of the short pause needed to get into the stance?
As he thought, Lu Chenâs eyes brightened up. But suddenly, he thought of something else.
Wait, training!
I remember the thing that helped me level up is not called Experience Points but Mastery Points. Is this why itâs named so? Mastering something requires long hours of training. After training a long time, the flaws can be corrected and changed. Which means, if I use the Mastery Points to level up the skills, the flaws can also be corrected.
As he thought, Lu Chen looked at Critical Strikeâs description to see how many Mastery Points were needed to level it.
[Critical Strike can be leveled up. Mastery Points to level up: 3000.]
Iâm sorry for the trouble, goodbye system.
3000 Mastery Points scared Lu Chen away. That was an amount he would never be able to earn in a short while.
However, Lu Chen didnât feel bad at all. Although he wasnât able to earn that many Mastery Points now, Lu Chen confirmed his conjecture that the flaws in the skills were correctable.
After the flaw is corrected, every time I attack will be two times or even four times stronger. By then, just how strong will I be!
The moment he thought about it, Lu Chen couldnât hold back the smile on his face.
But soon, Lu Chen stopped the wild thoughts in his mind.
But the critical chances of the Intermediate-level Critical Strike wouldnât be too high either. If I want to deal critical damage with every strike, I need to level it up to the Advanced level. But the Mastery Points required for that will be a lot.
After he finished looking at Critical Strike, Lu Chen turned to his other skill, the Conquerorâs Haki.
The Conquerorâs Haki was an ability in the anime world of One Piece.
Conquerorâs Haki, Observation Haki, and Armament Haki, Flying Slash Attack, and Air Blades were skills that were included inside of Lu Chenâs Swordsmanâs skill bank.
This time, Lu Chen drew Conquerorâs Haki. It was an ability that represented the userâs own willpower.
Activating the Haki can intimidate and subjugate the psyches of others, at times, even rendering those with weaker wills unconscious.
And when cultivated to a higher level, the Conquerorâs Haki could even affect the materials in the real world with its willpower.
Of course, Lu Chenâs Conquerorâs Haki was still at the lowest level. It could be triggered to intimidate others when Lu Chenâs psyche was undulating tremendously.
At the same time, as a Gold-grade skill, it didnât just have an active skill.
[Conquerorâs Haki: In the world of One Piece, only those with the qualities of a king can possess this type of Haki. This type of Haki allows the user to exert their own willpower over others, intimidating and subjugating the opponents, even rendering those with a weak will unconscious.]
[Active skill: Dominance: Activate the Haki and dominate the psyche of others. Those with weak wills will be knocked unconscious and even those with strong wills will be intimidated for a period and rendered immobile.]
Just like the Barbarian Kingâs Bloodline, the Conquerorâs Haki also had passive skills that added to his attributes.
However, unlike the Barbarian Kingâs Bloodline that enhanced his body basic attributes, the Conquerorâs Haki enhanced him on mental attributes like his willpower and aura.
And these attributes were very useful to Lu Chen as well.
After all, in this world, there was a type of peculiar monstrosities known as the Evils. The psyche attributes from the Conquerorâs Haki were exactly what he needed to defend himself against the peculiar Evils.
After he finished reading the descriptions of the Conquerorâs Haki, Lu Chen had a clear view of the improvements of his prowess.
At the same time, Lu Chen also looked the attributes he had now.
The first row is the Basic Attributes, the second row is the Pyshce Attributes, and the third row is Special Attributes.
My Strength is high, my Vigor is abundant, and my Constitution is nearly over 50 now.
Lu Chen was largely satisfied with his current attributes. However, when he saw that he had 44 points in Constitution and only 9 points in Agility, his head started to ache in distress.
If I donât remember wrongly, Swordsmen are known for their quick speed and swift reactions as well as incredible tactics. When specializing as a Swordsman, the main attribute that is added most is Agility, 9 points were added in total. But why did my attributes somehow become like this?
Looking at the attributes in the system page and feeling the immense strength and surging energy in his body, Lu Chen couldnât help but ponder.
Why do I keep feeling like Iâve turned on to a different path as a Swordsman?
While he was pondering in his room, the sound of knocking interrupted his thoughts.
At the same time, a soft and gentle voice said nervously outside of the doors.
âMaster AhâChen, itâs evening already. Should I start cooking now? You still have to join the night patrol tonight.â
âAlright.â
Lu Chen walked out of his room and saw the young girl already filling up the water jar and chopping some firewood.
He nodded in satisfaction and said, âStart cooking then.â
âOh yes, I havenât asked yet, but whatâs your name?â
It was only now that Lu Chen remembered that he didnât even know her name yet.
âYi Nianwei, master, you can just call me Xiao Wei.â
âI see.â
After that, Lu Chen ordered Xiao Wei to cook. The moment he saw Xiao Wei taking a knife to chop the meat, Lu Chen shook his head.
The knife in the house was not sharp enough, it was difficult to chop meat with it. But that was not the reason why Lu Chen shook his head, he was shaking because he was speechless at how Xiao Wei was planning to only cook a small chunk of the meat.
âStep aside. I will do it.â
He walked to the meat and without using the knife, he tore a dozen kilograms out from the huge chunk of wild boar meat with his bare hand and placed it in the pot.
âCook this much in the future.â
âAh? Master, this much, our food will notâŠâ
âThatâs not something you should worry about. Just cook the meals. I will take care of the food supplies.â
Of course, Lu Chen knew that cooking less meat would make the food supplies in the house last a longer time.
At the same time, Lu Chenâs body could last for days without eating and he would still be fine.
But with an empty stomach, Lu Chenâs prowess would be limited. Not to mention that he would not be able to train on an empty stomach. Thus, letting himself starve was something Lu Chen would never allow to happen.
At this rate, our food consumption will be fast. But as long as my prowess is able to keep up with it, I will be able to hunt more beasts. Hence, slowing down my prowess progression due to the lack of food is the wrong thing to do.
When Lu Chen was thinking to himself, Xiao Wei had already started cooking the meat.
Soon after, in the huge pot, a huge chunk of meat was already fully cooked.

However, Lu Chen was feeling a little disgusted looking at the cooked meat.
Boiled meat with only raw salt and nothing else. Itâs so hard to find good food here in the Wilderness!
Although the food wasnât delicious, Lu Chen still needed every bit of it to increase his strength.
Hence, he didnât hesitate and put his hand into the boiling water, scooping the meat out from the pot.
âMaster, be careful, the water is still boiling hotâŠâ
