The Strange Adventure of a Broke Mercenary Chapter 1467

Chapter 1198 - Endless Battlefield -Part 3

"Ah damn it." Byakko sighed as Orochi and Genbu laughed as the trio watched the entire scene from afar. Jin was killed by one of the side swipes of a spear by the animated soldiers. It was not those fancy techniques but a sneak poke and swipe.

"Hahahah! Pay up, pay up! If you believed Jin was able to clear the one week streak challenge that easily, I would have already bet big bucks on it." Genbu said and Orochi went towards Byakko with its mouth open. The white tiger grumbled as he took out a mysterious box sealed with a dangerous charm and placed it in the snake's mouth.

"He was close enough. Going five days straight was no simple feat while learning the skills of those animated soldiers."Byakko grumbled, saying that he should have made a stricter bet.

"It was your problem for not predicting that he would take this opportunity to learn from those animated soldiers." Genbu chuckled as he was delighted the mysterious box was within his possession..

"Relic betting again?" Ming walked towards them while patting Genbu's head. Even though he was initially the size of a mountain, the black tortoise was able to change his size to his liking. "How is that young boy doing?"

"The fight had been getting harder with some of the animated soldiers showing more than just weapon flaying," Genbu said. "As instructed, I had quietly inserted a few animated soldiers of our own so that he could learn from those manuals you had collated over the years."

"Yeah. Thanks, Gen chan. I figured that he did not have much time to even open those manuals that I gave him in the real world, well judging from his recent memories. He had been stuck to work for almost every day, this was probably the only time he would take training seriously."

Ming glee with joy as he felt his plan to teach Jin was successful.

While it was true that the soldiers within Suzaku Undying Battlefield were filled with cultivators of different grades, greed and desire. Ming thought that it would be opportunistic of him to throw in a few of his to teach Jin and made him aware of the different fighting techniques that he could have encountered in the real world.

It might be a rehash of all the manuals that the System had collated thus far but Ming also had his own personal collection which he did not give the System or Grandma Yuan. Though he initially wanted to use his personal collection into the fray, he saw how Jin was earnestly trying to learn from Suzaku's phantoms that he believed it would be best to start from the basics.

With the aid of Genbu, he had thrown almost every basic cultivation grade manual for these past five days and Jin was able to catch up quite easily with the aid of his Inverse Eyes. He even took the chance to practice a number of those basic techniques whenever he had the chance against those animated soldiers, increasing his repertoire of weapon knowledge.

However, Genbu had decided to up the game a little by throwing a few advanced techniques towards Jin since he was partially confident that Jin was able to catch up. (Although Byakko believed he was afraid that Jin was able to pass through the week's challenge with relative ease. But with Genbu's ever stoic face, he could only assume that was his motive.)

In any case, with Jin's past ability to mish mash skills, he slowly tried to integrate those techniques into his Panda Style. In most cases where someone had chosen a style to cultivate, they would not be able to copy any other style's techniques. However, the Astral Panda Style was more unique than most. Jin's previous background to be able to use various techniques from other animal styles had allowed his Dan Tian to be a little more flexible, able to portray the cultivation style he was copying.

It might sound like the ultimate copying skill in the world since he is not just able to copy eastern cultivator's techniques but the western mages with the affinity for elements. But there were drawbacks to his copying. It was limited to his learning ability which was directly proportionate to his use of Inverse Eyes. Even if he could remember and copy the technique, the copied technique would not have the full might of the said technique.

And unlike in reality where he might have the System to aid him, he might potentially forget the skills he had copied from the fight during his stint in the subconscious. But even so, Ming would like to have him exposed to as many techniques as possible. This was because the subconsciousness controls up to 90% of a human's action. There could come a time where Jin might accidentally trigger his memories and utilise such techniques.

But that would be an extreme case as Ming believed it would be more helpful if Jin were to use it to review the manuals in reality. That way, he would be able to get the technique he wanted as soon as possible.

However, that was not the worst part of his drawback of copying the technique. Jin could feel that the copied technique was inferior in terms of power even though he used his inverse eyes to copy each and every movement. He could only believe it was because he did not master them properly.

Still, that was not the issue.

The issue was his Panda silhouette…when copying the style he was imitating. For example, he could not concentrate on creating the Lightning Spear of the Serious Stag when he accidentally saw his Panda Silhouette imitating a stag by stuffing two makeshift branches on its head and copying the knock of its hoofs. Or like the Triple Assault Punch of the Tenacious Tiger where other Panda Silhouettes painted more stripes on its main Panda Silhouette and even put fake teeth to show that it was imitating a tiger.

At that point, he wondered if his opponent would laugh to death first or be killed by the technique he copied.
