Chapter 390 - 194: The Second Stage is About to Begin_1
After taking a shower and dressing in clean clothes back in his dormitory, Long Dangdang arrived at the Temple Headquarters for some respite. He sought out his two mentors first, only to find they were both absent, reportedly on trips outside.
Utilizing his identity as a reserve Sacred Legate, he smoothly arrived at the Knights Temple’s Impartation Hall, dedicated specifically to skill learning.
For a regularly progressing knight, learning skills here required the consumption of copious amounts of merit. Normal skills can be learned in any division; the ones offered in the Impartation Hall were unique abilities and high-level techniques.
Long Dangdang had visited once before. He then found the offerings overwhelming and even struggled with selecting what to learn. At the time, his cultivation level wasn’t even worth comparing to his current abilities. There was no need to learn too many skills then.
Things had changed considerably now. The more tests he faced, especially with him becoming the team leader, he deeply felt the need to make up for his lack of skills, particularly under the state of the Icy Moon Angel. He needed some seventh-rank skills for explosive power.
The interior of the Impartation Hall was bathed in a soft golden glow, with wisps of golden luminescence flickering in the air, creating an incredibly peculiar feeling. The hall’s rather small size, combined with its circular shape roughly fifty meters in diameter and a twelve-meter-high ceiling, appeared far more exquisite compared to the grandeur of the Temple Headquarters.
The walls consisted of blocks of gold put together, each block containing unique patterns.
Long Dangdang’s inner spiritual power was nearly four thousand now and he was getting closer and closer to the 6th rank. Looking again at these patterns created a wholly different feeling compared to his first visit.
These patterns were like living entities belonging to themselves. When he rested his gaze on them, he faintly perceived something.
Long Dangdang knew that each of these patterns represented a skill handed down by a predecessor knight. The higher the pattern, the greater the power of the legacy skill. The skills deposited in the Impartation Hall began at a minimum of the 5th rank and were created by the predecessors of the knight lineage themselves.
The top three meters of the area seemed somewhat illusory. Despite his current spiritual power, Long Dangdang couldn’t discern what was up there. However, he knew that those residual skills belonged to the predecessors of the God’s Seal knights, the pinnacle battle tactics of the Knights Temple. To inherit those skills, one required not only the appropriate status but also had to pass tests. Each impartation skill carried a unique test, second only to the tests of the six Great God’s Seal Cathedras Rex.
