Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 150: The Mutant Sword Body! The Path of Evolution for the Little Paper Man?_2


In the current Beast Master Civilization of this world, this aspect is not widely developed; the primary ability of a Swordsmanship Beast Tamer is considered to be embodied in the sword itself.

However, certain artistic interpretations, as well as works of this kind from his previous life, could offer Su Ping significant inspiration: techniques like the One-Word Electric Sword, Lone Nine Swords, and Evil-Banishing Sword Technique...

Countless chaotic sword techniques, too numerous to mention.

Does this mean Qian Yi, the Paperman's mutated Sword Body could, through its own comprehension, learn such Swordsmanship and develop actual Skills?

For example: Lone Nine Swords Swordsmanship (Beginner)?

Although it feels quite abstract, right now, it really seems to be the case.

All of a sudden, Su Ping became extremely excited.

If that's the case, then the potential of this Mutated Skill might be even stronger than all other Mutated Skills he has seen!

The fusion of Energy with sword moves, unleashing greater power—that is Swordsmanship!

Therefore, the extension beyond these sword moves essentially encompasses various styles and techniques of swordplay!

Then, could ordinary Swordsmanship such as the Chaotic Gust Technique possibly exist? And could those so-called powerful techniques, like the 'Heavenly Sword' or 'Devastating Divine Calamity', also be actualized by Paperman?

If such 'Swordsmanship' were to be formed, wouldn't that constitute a new Super-Rank Skill?!

As this idea surfaced, Su Ping once again felt the tingling thrill in his cerebral cortex.

He abruptly turned to look at Paperman, who, even after advancing in Level, was still wielding the Paper Swords.

And, could Paperman's chance for Evolution also be hidden within?

As Old Liu said, the essence of Evolution is the ability granted by the rules of this world to all Living Beings other than humans.

And what are the conditions for Evolution? It occurs when the current form cannot meet the demands for further improvement. After all Energy has accumulated to its limit, this brings about a transformation!

This requirement is not just reaching the peak of one's Realm and the limits of one's Race, but also the so-called 'further improvement'.

Paperman had previously lacked a path to Evolution because it did not have this 'further improvement' pathway to ascend.

However, the mutation direction of Mutated Pet Beasts represents an alternative pathway for ascension.

To evolve by enhancing its sword aspect?

Previously, Su Ping had wanted to focus on Metal Element Cultivation, since Paperman possessed a Metal Element Mutation; this had seemed like a promising direction.

But now, his perspective was beginning to shift.

Although the sword, in some sense, belongs to the Metal Element, it is also somewhat distinct.

Su Ping stepped directly into the training ground.

Paperman turned its head to look at the approaching Su Ping.

"WAH! WAH!" Qian Yi exclaimed. "Master! I've grown stronger!"

Su Ping nodded with a smile, "But Qian Yi, this is just the beginning. This has laid a foundation for your improvement. The training that follows will be your real test!"

"WAH!"

Qian Yi clenched its fists.

Su Ping nodded with satisfaction. He could always find such spirited zeal in Paperman.

It was a pity, though, that he still hadn't found an effective training method for Xiao Qing.

However, there was no doubt that Paperman's situation was more crucial at the moment.

"From now on, you don't need to continue practicing these fundamental sword moves. Your foundation is already unshakably solid. What is needed now is further advancement."

"WAH!"

Su Ping paused, then continued, "All fundamental sword moves serve to build a complete Swordsmanship. Next, you need to combine those seemingly ordinary moves into a cohesive and genuine sword technique."

"WAH?!"

Paperman scratched its head; evidently, even after its Level advancement, it still did not fully understand what a complete Swordsmanship entailed.

Su Ping began to explain in a way that Paperman would understand, "Those remarkable Swordsmen you've seen use sword-derived Skills to defeat their enemies—that's Swordsmanship!"

"WAH!?"

A light gradually dawned in Paperman's eyes. Then, holding the combined Paper Swords, it closed its eyes.

Before Su Ping could react to what this little thing was planning to do, the next moment, Paperman suddenly opened its eyes.

It pounced towards the dummy, raised the Paper Swords in its hands, and began to swiftly chop down on the dummy's body.

Each strike was forceful and swift, each faster than the last.

However, there was no skill to speak of. The more Su Ping watched, the more lines of exasperation appeared on his forehead.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Su Ping halted Paperman's self-created 'Chaotic Gust Sword Technique'.

Clearly, even though Paperman's Sword Intent Origin gave it a strong intuitive grasp of Swordsmanship.

Such disorderly chopping did not conform to the true essence of Swordsmanship.

Then, what was the necessary factor in comprehending Swordsmanship?

Su Ping ignored Paperman's confused expression and fell into deep thought himself.

Obviously, Paperman's judgment of Swordsmanship differed from the Low-level techniques mentioned in those martial arts novels.

It was about more than just the moves.

If it were merely about thrusting with the sword blade and reacting to an opponent's moves, then calling it Swordsmanship would not only be a stretch, but it also likely wouldn't possess any lethal power.
