For example, Daily Devour Nine Oxen is an upgraded version of Daily Devour One Ox, where the change is not just in quantity, but also in quality. Nine is the extreme number, and “nine oxen” refers not just to nine oxen, but to hundreds or even tens of thousands of them.

This significantly enhances the effect of “eating,” thereby driving the speed of martial cultivation.

This is Daily Devour Nine Oxen.

There are also traits like strengthening the body, Stabilize Foundation and Cultivate Essence, which are self-explanatory and don’t need much explanation.

Only the meanings of “Qi Moves Mountains and Rivers” and “Circulation of Breath like an Infant” are slightly obscure, but they are also easy to understand as traits of breathing skills. The breath can move mountains and rivers, and it operates autonomously like an infant’s, benefiting both cultivation and combat.

These are life skills.

Next, let’s look at craftsmanship skills, which are also a combination of various types.

These include slaughtering, Knife Sharpening, disguise, cooking, fishing, and more.

Besides the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, all skills related to life, or those that are insignificant, have been merged into “craftsmanship.”

Therefore, the change in craftsmanship skills is not substantial, and traits like the Butcher’s technique are all self-explanatory in previous aspects, and their effects are known.

After discussing craftsmanship, let’s look at travel skills.

These too are a merger of skills like “walking,” “swimming,” “rowing,” and other action-oriented skills, and their traits are also self-explanatory.

For instance, Divine Sword Freestyle enhances the effect of sword control, while Cloud Riding enhances the effect of Cloud Riding. There’s also Traveling Through Qingming, which increases the speed of flying and escaping between heaven and earth, through the Qingming.

It also helps in combat.

All these skills are complementary and not significant, at least not at the moment. The future may be a different story.

After all, even dreaming can produce a heaven-defying trait like “Zhuanzhou Mengdie.” It’s not that other skills couldn’t become extraordinary, it’s just that the time isn’t ripe yet.

Since the time isn’t ripe yet, let’s not talk about that for now.

Let’s focus on the main feature.

Reading!

This skill integrates the “Taoism” of the World of Dao and Law, and its traits need no further explanation.

Never Forget After Reading, draw inferences from one example, are all self-explanatory.

Three Teaching Sect classics, Build on the Past to Open the Future, enhance the effect of studying classics from the Three Teachings, allowing one to extract the essence and discard the dregs, to build on the past and understand thoroughly.

Mountain of Books Sea of Learning, Cultural Qi Deep as the Abyss, and also Righteous Qi Overwhelming, Cultivating One’s Moral Character, the first two can enhance the effect of reading, with roads through the mountain of books and a voyage over the sea of learning, cultivating Cultural Qi deep as the abyss. The latter two enable one to cultivate one’s moral character and possess overwhelming Righteous Qi through reading, untouched by External Demons or confused by demons.

This is very helpful for cultivation.

This is about reading, now let’s talk about martial training.

Apart from the original traits, three new ones have been added: Thunder Tempering Body, Soldier’s Armor Martial Saint, and Qi and Blood Furnace.

Thunder Tempering Body needs no further explanation; it enhances the effect of tempering the physical body with thunder.

Soldier’s Armor Martial Saint is also easy to understand; it’s an integrated upgraded version of the traits like Blade-loving Madman and Heaven Bow and Divine Arrow, proficient in all weapon techniques, able to wield any weapon as if it were a part of one’s body.

This is the essence of being a Soldier’s Armor Martial Saint.

As for Qi and Blood Furnace, it’s self-explanatory as well. The body’s Qi Blood is like a furnace that can refine all things, be it food, fuel, or even vile curses, all can be refined. It can be regarded as an integrated upgraded version of being immune to all poisons and Daily Devour Nine Oxen.

After reading and martial training, let’s see the skills of a teacher.

As the key to the development of a power, teacher skills are also of paramount importance.

Apart from the original traits, new ones like “Moral Cultivation,” “Wandao School,” and “Competition of the Chosen” have been added.

Moral Cultivation can elevate the moral character of disciples.

This is important.

If a power wants to last and grow, it cannot be selfish and greedy.

Disciples with noble morals and good character are necessary—they must be present.

Unless you have other means to control minds and exclude all dissent, imposing your will and commands thoroughly.

Otherwise, how can you expect a group of selfish, life-fearing individuals, or even those who betray their friends for glory and turn their backs on loyalty for personal gain, to help you grow and strengthen your power?

If they don’t hold you back, stab you in the back, and cause you to end up battered and bankrupt, then you’re doing well.

Moreover, moral character also helps in cultivation and can effectively withstand invasions by External Demons.

This is why Righteous Daoist cultivators can usually suppress demons and Evil Cultivators.

The importance of Moral Cultivation is evident; without external threats, Xu Yang managed to develop Wandao School to such a level, and this skill trait is key.

This is Moral Cultivation.

In addition, there are Wandao School and Competition of the Chosen.

Wandao School enhances the overall effect of Wandao School, including teaching, learning, research, development, creation, and cultivation—a trait that is virtually a panacea, with strategic value that is not low.

Competition of the Chosen, this trait is interesting.

Since Wandao School was established in a world without external threats, its drive for development has always been lacking.

War is the best catalyst.

Death is the loudest call to action.

In a peaceful world without war, it is difficult to motivate people to strive for rapid development.

Having no other choice, Xu Yang had to create competition himself. Without external pressure, internal pressure must be applied.

Thus, every two years, the Great Ritual of Wandao School coincides with the “Great Ritual Battles.”

The Ritual Battles, the Competition of the Chosen.

Each major wing of Wandao School, its branches, as well as civilian groups, Loose Cultivators, can all participate. There will be contests of the Martial Path, Divine Skills, and competitions in alchemy, talismans, artifact crafting, formations, and other projects, with significant rewards.
