Zhao Yun opened the shop and decided to look at the skill shop. The total items on the skill shop was a whopping 4,200 items. Zhao Yun didn`t know how to start reading with this huge amount. He would be needing at least a week just to finish reading and He will be kissing goodbye to the 90% discount. There are only 5 days left on the offer so he wanted to use it as soon as possible. Zhao Yun thought of an idea that might be able to solve his problems, "Hey system, can you filter the skill shop and recommend which skills are suited for me right now?"
*Ding* Filtering...Filtering...Filtering *Ding* Done
The skill books that were displayed earlier was reduced to a miniscule amount of 6." Zhao Yun was satisfied by how helpful the system was. Zhao Yun started reading each book.
"Okay, for the first book, it`s called... Scouter 101. Its descriptions say that it`s a passive skill that can grant you the ability to see anyone`s cultivation level and other details such as name, age, and title. It`s good for a starting skill." Zhao Yun remarked
The original price of this skill book is 110 exp points, using the discount will make the price drop to 11 exp points. There is no mana usage for this skill.
"The next book is called, Level 1 Mana Armor. Covers your entire body with a thin layer of armor made of mana that lasts for an hour. It will break when it reaches its limit. This skill book is the first of the 3 series," Zhao Yun dictated.
The original price of this skill book is 150 exp points, using the discount will make the price drop to 15 exp points. The mana required for this skill is 300.
"This one is called... Mana Shield (blue). Creates a dome-like shield made of mana that can cover you and your surrounding area for at most an hour. It will break when it reaches its limit. The larger the area that is covered, the more mana is needed. The color represents the effectiveness of the mana shield. Blue being the weakest, green in the middle and red as the strongest." Zhao Yun read.
The original price of this skill book is 300 exp points, using the discount will make the price drop to 30 exp points. The mana required for this skill ranges from 200-1000.
"The 4th book is called Monster Baiter. After activating this skill, you will secrete a seductive scent only monsters can smell. The scent can reach up to 1 kilometer," Zhao Yun stated.
The original price of this skill book is 100 exp points, using the discount will make the price drop to 10 exp points. The mana required for this skill is 200.
"This one is quite unusual, a Mushroom Recipe Book? hmm. it says here that by reading this, I`ll be able to cook mushroom dishes as good as a professional chef, hmm." Zhao Yun pondered then went on to read the last book.
The original price of this skill book is 100 exp points, using the discount will make the price drop to 10 exp points. This is a passive skill book, no mana is required in using this skill.
"So it`s the last book recommended by the system. the title is..... Wiener designer... and it can give me the ability to freely change the size and shape of my d*ck," After reading it, Zhao Yun's eyes flashed and he got fired up, "WOAH! this is the bomb, any man would kill just to have this kind of ability."
The original price of this skill book is 10exp points, using the discount will make the price drop to 1 exp point. The mana required for this skill is 10.
"Okay, I should calm down first, What I should buy right now is something I really need so I should really think this through. First is the Scouter 101, this should be really helpful for me, especially when I encounter other cultivators, I`ll be able to know when to back down and retreat. The second book would be the Level 1 Mana armor. This would be a good skill to bolster my defense and increase my survivability in this world, it's just, the line where it says it`ll break when it reaches its limits is too vague that my senses are telling me that it`s not dependable. While the third book has the same problem with the mana armor, even if I wanted to buy it, I won`t be able to since I only have 21 exp points. Next would be quite good as well, the monster baiter. With this, I`ll be able to attract monsters and farm experience easily, but with my current strength, I might encounter a monster that can kill me instantly so this is a no go. The last two books were very unusual, the recipe book... I can`t really think of a way for this to be useful other than changing the villager's traditional way of eating so I really can`t go with this book since it`s not logical and for this one, wiener designer, as far as my perversion is concerned, I really can`t do much with my Stamina limiting me, so this is also a no go," Zhao Yun finished his assessment.
*Ding* WOW, did you really just rejected the last skill book? Is that still you?
"Shut up, shitty system, I can`t waste experience points," Zhao Yun retorted
*Ding* Yeah, says the one who wasted all his points on charisma
"I know, I know, I admit that was a dumb move by me since I wasn`t treating my situation seriously. Now I`ll be serious since this world is full of monsters and cultivators stronger than that wolf I luckily slew. Of course, I won`t stop creating my harem, since that`s my goal after all. With that said, I`ll be buying scouter 101." Zhao Yun decided.
*Ding* You have successfully bought "Scouter 101" from the skill shop.
A book magically appeared in front of Zhao Yun, before it fell to the ground Zhao Yun managed to grab it. He examined the book, flip it, opened it, and even tried putting his right hand on the just like how a priest does before opening a bible.
*Ding* What the hell are you doing?
"I`m trying to learn this skill. How the hell do I learn skills," Zhao Yun was busy doing all things he can think of.
*Ding* Bruhhh, obviously, you need read it dumdum.
"WHAAAT! aren`t you supposed to be a cheat? why make it harder for me! shouldn`t it be like, just by touching the skill book, I`ll be able to learn it," Zhao Yun was annoyed with this way of learning skills.
*Ding* Tell it to my creators, not me dumdum. Oh btw, your wisdom will determine if you can successfully learn it or not. Don`t worry, if you fail, you just need to read it all over again.
"HUUUUUH!," this time Zhao Yun was gritting his teeth due to anger. "So this is what the meaning of Wisdom means, tsk, I didn`t really bother with the meanings of my stats but know I might need to reread them again later." Zhao Yun then started reading the skill book. Fortunately, he managed to learn it the first time he read it.
*Ding* Congratulations! You have learned the skill *Scouter 101*
"Phew, That was time-consuming, I used up 10 minutes just to read this," Zhao Yun complained, then stored the skill book in his dimension bag. "So, I still have 10 exp points remaining, I should put this all to stamina so that I can at least last longer," Zhao Yun thought. After putting all his remaining exp points on stamina, he activated one of the passive skills of Stamina stats.
*Ding* Congratulations! You have learned the skill *Increased Stamina*. Do you want to read its description? yes or no?
"Yes." Zhao Yun happily replied
*Ding* *Increased Stamina* increases your stamina by 100%
*Ding* Congratulations! You have learned the new skill *Pain Tolerance*. Do you want to read its description? yes or no?
Zhao Yun was surprised to hear that he learned a new skill. "Yes," he replied after a short moment.
*Ding* *Pain Tolerance* makes you feel less pain than normal people would.
"Heh, am I starting to be an op protagonist? That should have been obvious from the start, HAHAHA." Zhao Yun laughed to his heart content, then he remembered something, "RIght I should try practicing my scouter skill."
He got out of the bed and realized that he was still nude, so he put on his clothes, strapped Ssaurabi on his waist, and went out of the house.
