Beast Taming: My System is Bugged

Chapter 347 - 334: Shadow Assault, Blazing Light Fist

As the two of them were chatting,

Team Leader Lan Ze suddenly appeared and handed him a paper to look over:

"Teacher Tang, this is the Transmission Skill our workgroup has been researching. We’re currently in the second phase of optimization. Could we ask for your guidance?"

Teacher Tang suddenly raised an eyebrow.

’Talk about perfect timing. This Transmission Skill will save a huge amount of learning time, allowing the next month to be dedicated to cultivation so I can develop Ah Ji’s physical potential.’

"In that case, the upcoming training will be much easier. My Pet Beasts will also join the test. Have your test Pet Beasts teach Blazing Light Fist and the Shadow Assault Skill to Ah Ji."

Teacher Tang said to Lan Ze after finishing the paper.

Before Lan Ze came, he had already heard rumors from Team Leader Da Fei.

His arrival was no accident; he had come intentionally to get on Teacher Tang’s radar.

And it worked. Teacher Tang giving him a task meant he had been remembered.

"No problem, I can arrange it right now. However, it’s hard to get a spot in the training rooms. Our workgroup has already used up its slots for today," Lan Ze said, embarrassed.

"Use mine. I have a special slot that lets me cut the line," said Teacher Tang.

At these words, Gu Ming couldn’t help but shoot another glance at Teacher Tang.

One had to know that these special line-cutting slots were only available to company executives or Beastmasters who had made special contributions or received major awards. The fact that Teacher Tang possessed this privilege was clearly inseparable from his achievements.

Hearing Teacher Tang’s generous offer, Lan Ze’s face lit up with joy. "Excellent, excellent! I’ll go make the arrangements right now."

Gu Ming felt that today was going exceptionally smoothly; there were people helping him at every turn.

A short while later, Gu Ming and the others arrived at the training room and began their practice.

First, Teacher Tang’s two Pet Beasts demonstrated Blazing Light Fist and Shadow Assault.

The Xi Beast, its entire body a mass of light, swung a palm formed of radiance.

A single punch filled their vision with Holy Light, shining into Ah Ji’s eyes and bathing them in a blinding white, making it impossible to see.

Gu Ming, merely watching from the side, could feel that the Blazing Light Fist unleashed by Teacher Tang’s Pet Beast had already reached the realm of Daoist Skill Perfection.

No, it might have even been higher than the Perfection Realm—at the Quasi-Path Level.

It had the feeling of the Great Dao’s ultimate simplicity: the fist was light, and the light was the fist.

A single punch could be thrown without causing any harm, only illuminating the opponent.

But if the user had killing intent, the gushing light of the fist would transform into the most ferocious, deadly radiance, piercing the opponent’s body and causing the light within them to explode.

This display of Blazing Light Fist was clearly overwhelming, its power suffocatingly immense.

Meanwhile, Teacher Tang’s Profound Celestial Beast Ghost Soul, clad in Ghost Armor, melted into the ground and moved unpredictably around the Dao Field.

It didn’t just glide along the ground; it could also flash behind Gu Ming’s shadow at any moment, then behind Ah Ji’s shadow the next.

Its position was always erratic, potentially existing within the shadow of any Pet Beast or human.

This was Shadow Assault, the ability to appear within any shadow at any time, like a shadow itself, to ambush an enemy.

Of course, for it to reach this stage, it had completely surpassed Daoist Skill Perfection, reaching the Quasi-Path Realm, and perhaps even higher.

In short, its strength was already at a level Gu Ming couldn’t even perceive.

Each of the Skills demonstrated by these two Pet Beasts was incredibly powerful. The Pet Beasts on-site responsible for recording committed the feeling to memory, then used a Transmission Array to send it to Ah Ji as sound waves.

Ah Ji only felt its head spin as the sensation of its body turning into a shadow, flowing along the ground, and striking an enemy spontaneously surfaced in its mind.

It knew the Hidden Evasion skill, but Shadow Assault and Shadow Escape were two different things.

Shadow Escape is a transfiguration-type Body Technique, while Shadow Assault is used for attacking.

But the Profound Celestial Beast Ghost Soul hadn’t shown any aggression. It seemed to have just turned into a shadow, moving between the shadows of various people and Pet Beasts.

’Where does the killing power come from?’

Ah Ji didn’t understand at first, but from the powerful Daoist Skill sensations transmitted by the company’s Pet Beasts, it could sense that the Shadow Assault Skill also possessed immense killing power.

It was just that this Daoist Skill had returned to its simplest form, its most primitive and essential nature.

Even its raw, powerful killing intent was concealed beneath the shadows.

As a Dark Element Cat Demon, even it couldn’t perceive the deeper meaning. This showed just how profound the Skill was.

Teacher Tang probed with his Divine Sense again, then gave Ah Ji a private lesson on the theory.

Since Ah Ji had already learned the general feeling of Shadow Assault and Blazing Light Fist through the Transmission Skill, and the Great Dao Insights were already seeded in its heart, learning the fundamental knowledge of these two Entry Level abilities was much easier.

With almost no effort, it laid the keystones for the basic theories of both Skills within half an hour.

Even if Ah Ji looked a bit slow, it had completely grasped the true essence of both Skills.

Now, when it reviewed the Daoist Skills transmitted from the demonstration Pet Beasts, it perceived them in a completely new light.

Blazing Light Fist wasn’t without its Variations. A master’s Blazing Light Fist was not bound by form; every inch of searing light could transform into a sky full of iron fists to smash the enemy.

Before reaching a Quasi-Path Skill Level, this Skill was merely a burst-damage ability targeting a single opponent.

But at a Realm above Perfection, it became a Skill of another dimension, its depth far exceeding its imagination.

The same was true for Shadow Assault.

Previously, watching the Profound Celestial Beast Ghost Soul flash about without actively attacking, it had seemed far too peaceful, without a trace of killing intent.

However, after it grasped the fundamental knowledge, its perspective changed.

Looking back at its own Hidden Evasion skill, it realized its technique was far too crude.

With this realization, a steady stream of Cultivation inspiration flooded Ah Ji’s mind. It felt as if just by following and digesting these two newfound streams of inspiration, its Cultivation Technique’s Skill Level would soar.

Just then, Teacher Tang’s combat training followed close behind.

But before the practical combat, Ah Ji was allowed to enjoy the benefits of the Transmission Skill one more time.

Only when its brain felt completely stuffed, with nothing left but the two Skills of Shadow Assault and Blazing Light Fist, did Teacher Tang release two Six-star Pet Beasts to personally act as sparring partners for Ah Ji’s special training.

Under the relentless barrage of the two Pet Beasts’ Skills, Ah Ji cried out in misery, but it found joy in its suffering.

It endured the immense pressure of the training, absorbing the insights of the Skills into its very body.

At noon, in the evening, and on every subsequent day, the food it ate was extremely nourishing.

The food would melt in its mouth and instantly transform into nutrients upon entering its body, nourishing it and causing its light and Dark Attribute Spiritual Roots to grow rapidly, sprouting fresh, tender leaves.

With each passing day, it could see and feel its body growing stronger.

For Ah Ji, this kind of life was one of utter bliss, something it had never even dared to dream of before.
