determining their growth rate and power limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few days ago, when Fang Zhou first came into contact with the [Skeleton Meditation Method], he felt that the accompanying skeleton visualization image was somewhat off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering the beginner stage, Fang Zhou could clearly sense that the Skeleton Meditation Method wasn’t entirely harmonious and had areas that could be improved and refined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the rampant slaughter by his skeleton clones over these days, his understanding of the skeleton imagery deepened, and finally, a \"modifiable\" symbol appeared in the skills bar of his attribute panel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Fang Zhou’s exploration, he discovered that improving or inferring skills from the attribute panel wasn’t spontaneous but required him to have corresponding knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the degree of knowledge completeness, the soul power consumed would also vary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Improving the Skeleton Meditation Method required the consumption of 100 points of soul power, which certainly needed days of accumulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Fang Zhou lived a busy and fulfilling life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides the basic courses arranged by the Sea City Military Academy, he would intermittently control the skeleton clones for two hours of skeleton leveling each day, significantly increasing the four-dimensional attributes of both his main body and the clones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Main Body [Attributes] Strength 1.6, Constitution 1.5, Agility 1.4, Spirit 3.5\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clones [Attributes] Strength 7, Constitution 6, Agility 5, Spirit 5\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Soul Power] 110\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While enhancing the four-dimensional attributes and accumulating soul power, Fang Zhou also increased the skill proficiency of his main body’s [Skeleton Meditation Method] and [Summon Skeleton] to [Skilled], while [Calm and Relaxed] was elevated to [Master].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further, through continuous practice, he also advanced the skill proficiency of the clones’ [Brutal Strike] and [Charge] to [Skilled], greatly increasing combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Fang Zhou, the most crucial achievement was accumulating 100 points of soul power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late at night, in the dormitory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou sat cross-legged on the bed, focusing his attention on the plus sign in the skills section of the attribute panel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Detected a skill that can be improved, estimated to require 100 points of soul power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Proceed with improvement?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou calmed his mind, solemnly said: \"Begin improvement.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the rapid consumption of 100 points of soul power, Fang Zhou once again entered an inspiration burst state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a haze, Fang Zhou seemed to return to the perspective of the skeleton clone once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the Blood Moon, he walked on a vast land covered in bone-white skeletons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skeletons are the lowest form of undead, the most humble existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The growth limit of a skeleton is limited, but it is the necessary path for an Undead Mage to contact the Undead Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Imitate it, play the role of it, learn from it, become it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Fang Zhou had a flash of inspiration, and the awkward skeleton visualization image in his mind was completely changed to his own skeleton clone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am the strongest skeleton; rather than going out of my way, I should directly visualize myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one understands skeletons better than I do!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Improvement of [Skeleton Meditation Method] succeeded, please name it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou regained his senses and raised an eyebrow, saying: \"Name it [Skeleton Monarch Meditation Method].\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the skeleton imagery in his mind was precisely his most familiar skeleton clone holding a bone spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou was confident that his skeleton clone would step by step ascend the throne of the Skeleton Monarch, and that would certainly not be his end goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at his skill panel—[Skeleton Meditation Method] had successfully been replaced with [Skeleton Monarch Meditation Method].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou carefully comprehended the new method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new [Skeleton Monarch Meditation Method] had at least 30% more efficiency than the previous one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This also meant that the growth rate of Fang Zhou’s spirit attribute was 30% faster than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps before the simulation battlefield opened, he could advance to the Middle Rank of the Apprentice Tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling satisfied, he started planning his future growth paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Firstly, his main body needed to infer a suitable, effective skeleton-series control skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, with attacks covered by Summon Skeleton and Skeleton Flying Spear, defense by Skeleton Shield, the control skills would be complemented too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the Apprentice Stage, Fang Zhou’s combat system was basically formed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the clones, they needed to master more combat skills and quickly raise their level to the Upper Rank of the Apprentice Tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, Fang Zhou could confidently and boldly control the skeleton clones to explore deeper into the Burial Wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soul power was still in surplus, Fang Zhou closed his eyes, attempting to infer a skeleton-series control skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the attribute panel prompted, \"Missing essential skill materials.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou was slightly taken aback, then immediately realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the knowledge he possessed wasn’t sufficient to infer all skeleton-series skills merely through bone armament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that this was the case, Fang Zhou didn’t force it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up, stretched lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skill materials required by the attribute panel should refer to control skills from other professions in the Human Alliance skill library.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to exchange for skills from other professions naturally required a large number of contribution points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed necessary to prioritize tasks for obtaining contribution points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, the most practical channel for acquiring a large number of contribution points was his newly inferred skeleton-series skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skeleton Flying Spear and Skeleton Shield!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Fang Zhou hadn’t planned on hiding them, just wanted to report to the military academy after some time to make it seem more reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new skills he inferred through his own effort—should the academy inquire, he could even explain the principles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recall that when Earth Knight Zhao Yuan awakened and obtained the Rock Will skill, he uploaded it to the Human Alliance skill library and received a reward of 100 contribution points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then at the very least, his two new skills should also fetch 200 contribution points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou thought, somewhat uncertainly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early the next morning, Fang Zhou arrived at Company One’s classroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the corner, Bai Xiaochan eagerly waved at him as soon as he entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou ambled over, asking: \"What’s up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaochan gave Ye Fan a thumbs-up beside her, cheerfully saying: \"Fang Zhou, our Lord Ye sent you a boon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You remember he got pulled into a Demon Hunter research group, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, this research group needs some combat sparring partners—preferably ones at the same level as Ye Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sparing resources within the family, Ye Fan thought of you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there’s a rich contribution point reward for this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\" Fang Zhou’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when he needed contribution points, Ye Fan, the dude with a flair for the dramatic, came to offer benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned toward Ye Fan, asking: \"Lord Ye, what’s the story? Tell me more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan crossed his arms, proudly declaring: \"In my life, Ye Fan never yields to others. In all of Company One, only Fan and Zhou may be called heroes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zhou listened in disbelief, this kid was hopeless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He coughed lightly, patted Ye Fan’s shoulder, and asked straightforwardly: \"Good brother, tell me, how much are we talking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1191,"2026-06-05T17:55:40.746Z",1,"novelbin.me","48b77852cd8fa40ea3d10ab1dc713908d93ba77649408d8976985101ff957b65","undead-mage-i-have-a-skeleton-clone-chapter-17","undead-mage-i-have-a-skeleton-clone-chapter-15",781,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fundead-mage-i-have-a-skeleton-clone-cover.jpg"]
