Chapter 94: Skill Selection

Talent fusion complete.

At this moment, Tang Ruan suddenly let out a sound of surprise, "Eh?"

She could also see that the effect of this talent had become stronger.

She looked at Zhao Chi in disbelief: "My lord, this talent... has it become stronger?"

Zhao Chi smiled: "Is that okay?"

"Of course it's okay."

Tang Ruan was practically cheering with joy.

Zhao Chi smiled: "It's great that you have no objections; I was afraid you might have some resistance to this talent."

Tang Ruan shook her head with a smile: "How could that be? Although the name doesn't sound very good... the effect is too great. When I charge into battle for you, I'll be able to hold on longer."

This Tang Ruan is truly well-behaved.

Gu Qing stood to the side, looking at Zhao Chi, then at Tang Ruan, completely confused.

Zhao Chi asked: "Tang Ruan, Gu Qing, I am opening your information permissions to each other; you don't have any objections, right?"

Tang Ruan shook her head: "My lord, you make the decisions; of course I have no objections."

Gu Qing said softly: "My lord, you are the lord; you can be more casual with what you do. You don't need to ask us about such small matters; we will accept whatever you do."

Zhao Chi smiled: "Good."

After all, Zhao Chi was a transmigrator, and some of his concepts hadn't fully shifted yet.

For Gu Qing and Tang Ruan, Zhao Chi still maintained as much respect as possible.

But in the eyes of Gu Qing and the others, it seemed Zhao Chi was a bit too focused on their feelings.

It wasn't that it was bad; it was very good.

But it would also lower some efficiency.

As subordinates, they still had to remind him.

Zhao Chi opened their permissions to each other.

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled: "Oh~ so that's how it is. What an incredible talent; both the name and the effect are top-tier."

Tang Ruan was a bit puzzled: "Is this name good too?"

"Of course it's good," Gu Qing answered as if it were a matter of course.

"Oh..." Tang Ruan accepted this explanation very easily.

Zhao Chi also continued to help Tang Ruan with the next item: 【Select Spirit Art Skill】

【Spirit Art skill list has been opened; please make your selection】

This interface was different from the talent one, with dozens of optional Spirit Art skills.

However, it was a pity that Flower-Moving Jade-Stealing could not take effect.

Zhao Chi tried many times, but it never activated.

Then so be it.

The skill list was very long, divided into 【Damage Type】, 【Enhancement Type】, 【Debuff Type】, 【Support Type】, 【Recovery Type】, etc.

Each category had many Spirit Art skills to choose from.

But they were all basic Spirit Arts.

There were none with too much power.

After all, it was a Primary Hero’s first skill; it was impossible to have skills beyond the current level.

But fortunately, there were many choices, allowing him to more precisely help Tang Ruan choose a skill suitable for her.

Tang Ruan’s positioning was still a meat shield.

It would be best to have a damage-type skill that weakens enemies, or a defense-type ability that enhances herself.

Zhao Chi thought over and over, finally filtering out 9 Spirit Art skills.

【1. Healing Art】

【2. Wood Skin Art】

【3. Cleansing Art】

【4. Weak Attack Art】

【5. Slow Attack Art】

【6. Solid Defense Art】

【7. Speed Block Art】

【8. Speed Dodge Art】

【9. Provocation Art】

There were some other skills that were also good, but in the end, he chose these 9 as candidates.

The first one was "Healing Art."

This was also a skill Gu Qing knew.

If Tang Ruan learned it, she could take damage while healing herself and her subordinates, belonging to the type that could both heal and tank.

This was actually quite good.

Keep it as a candidate.

The second was "Wood Skin Art."

After use, a layer of wooden skin would appear on the surface of the body.

It could be seen as a form-fitting wooden armor; it wasn't as strong as a wooden shield, but the defense was decent.

If the wooden skin was shattered, it could be reapplied.

It was equivalent to a regenerable armor.

As long as there was spiritual power, it could be cast continuously and remain effective.

This could also be a candidate.

The third was "Cleansing Art."

It could remove negative status effects from the body.

For example, poisoning, burning, charm, etc., could all be cleared.

It could be considered a way to maintain one’s combat effectiveness at all times.

So it could also be a candidate.

The 4th "Weak Attack Art" and 5th "Slow Attack Art" were similar.

They respectively reduced enemy attack and enemy attack speed.

This would naturally improve her own survival ability; they were both ways to weaken enemies.

They were also quite good.

The 6th "Solid Defense Art" increased defense, the 7th "Speed Block Art" could increase blocking ability, and the 8th "Speed Dodge Art" could increase dodging ability.

These were all for enhancing oneself.

They were also very good and could improve her tankiness.

The 9th was "Provocation Art."

Of course, it could provoke enemies.

Making nearby enemies all come to attack her, keeping teammates safe.

This skill was naturally also very good.

Zhao Chi hesitated again.

It was really hard to choose.

But considering all circumstances, Zhao Chi finally chose the 9th, "Provocation Art."

A meat shield’s biggest task is to take damage.

But why take damage?

The reason is to share the damage for teammates, allowing them to attack more safely, thereby defeating the enemy and achieving victory.

So the other Spirit Arts indeed had their merits and were irreplaceable in certain aspects.

But Provocation was the skill most suitable for Tang Ruan’s current positioning.

Besides that.

Tang Ruan’s current talent, "Masochistic Tendency," was also more suitable for the Provocation skill.

So Zhao Chi stopped hesitating.

Select 【Provocation Art】

(Provocation Art: Primary Spirit Art. Consumes 10 spiritual power, causing the opponent to fall into an angry state, attacking regardless of everything, lasting for 10 minutes.)

Tang Ruan smiled sweetly: "Thank you, my lord, for helping me choose such a suitable skill. I will definitely use it well so that you can be safe and sound."

Zhao Chi smiled: "You're welcome."
