There was a way to cultivate your physique stats and that was by absorbing stat crystal. There were crystals called Strength crystal, Dexterity crystal, Endurance crystal, and Focus crystal. There were also Health, Mana, and, Stamina crystals and their regeneration crystals. There was also a Skill crystal that you can use to upgrade your skill.
As such, it can help in raising your physique stats by absorbing the crystals while cultivating your physique.Arthas ventured into the monsters' forest to collect those. Having a sword on his waist and leather armor with a curved dagger on his back. A bow and a quiver of arrows were on his back. He also didn't forget to bring potions with him.With his bedroll attached to his backpack, he was ready to go on an adventure. Also brought his rations with him, dried meat that was ready to be made into soup with just water and salt.He went on an adventure on the edge of human settlements. Today was its weekend so he has time for a little leisure and to train his physique stats. It was zero at the moment and so he needs to improve it.The way was lonely and the wind was the only one that whispered. Leaves were being carried by them. He ventured solitarily on the way and the path led to the entrance of the monster's forest.The entrance was gloomy and depressing. Howls of air were what he can hear from where he stood. The forest floor was covered with dried leaves and has a foreboding atmosphere. As he entered, the forest became dark and the temperature dropped.He delved further into the deeper parts of the forest and soon heard howls of animals inside it."Demon wolves, they are nasty ones that have Dexterity stat crystals. I must get one for myself," Arthas said in a low voice.He traveled and followed their tracks, the hunt begins, and tracking them inside the forest will be an easy task for him. Wolves were the ones who hunted but not the ones who were hunted instead.And so, they were not wary of anything that will cause them harm.He followed them and then saw them feasting on a deer. Others bicker with the others for their share.Arthas then climbed a tree and then watched them from above.He broke a monster attractant on the footing of the tree and the wolves immediately followed the scent. They arrived at the footing then Arthas equipped his bow. Firing at their heads one by one.They barked at him from below and even when their comrades were slowly killed one by one, they were not backing down. Arthas then smirked, he knew they would not fall back anytime soon.He fired at their heads and they went limp immediately after the arrow hits. A perfect weapon for him with low stats.With the potion working, ten of them fell even without making a fight.After the monster attractant lost its effects, he immediately dropped down from the top of the tree. He then stabbed them and their stat crystal floated from their bodies.He grabbed them all and then halted his movements after a growl was heard. He looked back and saw a demon tiger, ready to pounce at him anytime."Tsk!"He was then attacked and he rolled on the side. He drew his bow and fired at it. It then ran towards him and he fired at it. The tiger was then hit on the shoulders and he backflipped on the side. Then fired at it in the head after they crossed paths.The enemy then growled as it removed the arrows from its body."Shit," Arthas cursed.Arthas then drew his sword on his waist and put his bow on his back. He then also drew his curved dagger on his back and wielded the sword with it."Come and get some,"Arthas then dashed towards it and the enemy leaped towards him. He then slid his body to the ground and then slashed the tiger on its abdomen with his sword and dagger.Its abdomen was opened by his slash and the enemy was heavily wounded. Blood splurted out and then the tiger went shaky on its footing. It then crashed to the ground and went limp.Arthas then ran and stabbed its back towards its chest which pierced its heart in the process. Immediately, the crystal floated and he grabbed it.The demon tiger's crystal boasts of its +1 Strength, +1 Dexterity, +1 Endurance, and +10 Health points. While demon wolves only give +1 Dexterity.Arthas then rested for a while and then went back to his dorm. He traveled back and camped on the roadside.He made a fire pit and installed his bedroll on the dried leaves. With a small pot, he put his dried meat in water. Then seasoned it with small salt and ginger. Also, add cabbages to the pot and ground black pepper.He cooked it well and ate with his bowl. Letting it cool down a bit and sipping the broth. Eating plenty after his tiring battle in the forest. He installed a tent and then rested inside. The wind was chilly and it was colliding with his tent. He slept in cool weather and comfort.Morning came and he resumed his travels. The sun has went up from the east and the birds sounded in the forest.He saw the city and then saw guards at the gates. He entered and then traveled towards the school.Upon reaching his dorm, he entered his room and then put the 10 demon wolf crystals on his bed; as well as the demon tiger crystal.He went to a lotus position and then started to cultivate while absorbing the crystals. Using the versatile all-rounder cultivation, he was slowly absorbing the crystals and immediately felt that the crystals were slowly dissipating. It then went inside his body and became nourishment for his physique stats.He then saw that all his crystals were absorbed by his body and greatly felt the difference from before. With him absorbing it all, his stats were Strength 1, Dexterity 11, Endurance 1, and Focus 1.It was then, that he had opened his card and he chose his physique stats on the screen. By using it, it will show your stats.

There were Basic attack skills that can be used without cooldowns and were used as basic attacks.Active skills that were damaging enemies. Passive growth skills that were growing with time. Buff skills that were used for buffs.Debuff skills were used for giving negative status to the enemies. Movement skills were used for going toward the enemies or escaping from them.Status skills that were used when equipped. Ultimate skills that were used as trump cards and last-ditch efforts.Raising funds for the skill books needs huge money. And so, Arthas scoured the forest for herb gathering. The place was humid and was at the right temperature to grow herbs. The place was a natural habitat of such plants.He scanned the surroundings and went to find clues for such plants. After several minutes, Artaz then found Blood herbs on a rotting tree and then observed. It glowed in pulsating red as he watched it. He immediately plucked it carefully and put it inside his backpack. It was a couple of herbs that were harvested. It will be enough to have 3 potions with what he has. He immediately went to find more herbs to be brewed. Luckily, he found magic herbs in a damp place in the forest. Having plucked several of them, it glowed in bluish radiance. He put it inside his bag and then went on with his hunt for herbs. After scouring the forest, he went on towards the riverside. Then, after several minutes, he saw several Energy herbs that glowed in a greenish hue; waiting to be
Arthas watched the mirror and washed his face. It was morning and he has to go to school. With it, he dressed and packed his bag.As he went to the school gate, he saw the bullies waiting for him. Arthas was taken aback, they seemed aggressive in their bullying these days. "Hey, look at who's here. Is this the trash that we all kicked?" Drake grinned and then snapped his fingers.They clenched their fist and landed a blow on his face. Arthas tried to evade but his physique stats on Dexterity lacked. Although he has ample numbers in it, they were faster than his eyes can see. His reaction speed lacked and so, he received the blow. He was then down, lying on the ground then tried to stand up, they then kicked him on the chest and stomach. Making him suck air and then held his breath due to the pain.They continued doing so until one girl arrived. "Hey! Stop doing that or I will report you all!" said the girl with black ponytail hair. "And what if we refuse?" Drake said then they ch
With the vast number of job classes, Arthas chose to learn his past job class first. With the knowledge of that Job class, he will learn it faster. As his mastery of that class was at its peak. The Conjurer has 4 skill types. It was the Conjure weapons, Weapon mastery, Conjure illusion, and, Conjure sentient weapons. With it, he went to the Conjurer Halls. Having the flag of the Conjurers with its seal in it. He entered and saw the potential students of the said class. Many were already training on the training grounds and he saw the teachers teach the new students. He went to the desk and saw a robed man. He has the ambiance of a strong person, a master in his rank. "Hello sir, I would like to register as a Conjurer," Arthas was excited to be assessed. It was then, he was given a crystal ball. His face was seen reflecting on it."Touch the ball and we will know if you are a Conjurer," he said in a lifeless tone.Arthas then touched the ball and it glowed."Congrats, you are ind
Alas, Arthas made it to novice rank. By him winning the test, he has proven that he was worthy of the rewards. "Your reward was given and there will be skill pages available for purchase. You can get them at the front desk. As for me, I will recuperate before another test starts," the examiner then left to rest and drank a health potion.Arthas then went to the counter and the receptionist greeted him."Hello sir, congrats on reaching novice rank. There will be available skill pages to purchase! I will fetch them for you," the girl then went to fetch him the skill pages."Please do," Arthas replied.He then saw the skill pages on a box that was carried by her. Putting the box on the desk with a thud. The skill pages were Skill: Javelin throw, Skill: Dagger burst, Skill: Afterimage illusion, Skill: Double time, and, Skill: Phantom.The inscription then was seen on the paper as Arthas read it. .......Skill name: Javelin throwDescription: Throw conjured javelins to the enemies.Eff
Arthas was thinking about what job class he will train in first. As such, he thought that it would be good to learn the Lycanthrope firsthand.They were the tribe that wields the beast's will and can shapeshift like the Druids. He thought that it will be a good start to have such a job class first. In the past, he chose the Conjurer weapon master. But now, he has all of them. There was still time and so he needed to learn everything he can. He was thinking about whether he will choose the Druid shaman or the Lycanthrope but he choose the Lycanthrope job class first. He would take his time and get strong as soon as possible.He traveled to the Lycanthrope Halls and saw the majestic face of a wolf on the flag. A seal of the wolf was hung on the fluttering flags on top of the building. He saw that the building was well-designed with tribal signs and has an aura of Lycanthropes. A tribal design was what orchestrated the building.He soon entered and then saw many persons with furry pel
There were 3 tests per rank up and it will be a lot harder than before. With increasing difficulty with every test. Arthas can't go home yet as he wanted to take the tests and rank up to adept. He wanted to be adept before going home."I would like to take the 3 tests, sir," Arthas said to the instructor. "You will? Well, you can!" he said then readied himself."Okay, the first test will be handled immediately," he said.The first test and Arthas were slightly wasted. His stamina was slightly depleted from his past duel. He immediately rested on the bench inside and waited for the instructor's signal. He drank water in their cafeteria and then rested a bit. His stamina soon was replenished. "Arthas, get ready as your ascension test will be upcoming," "Aye!"He went outside again and then saw the number of students who failed. With grim expressions on their faces and disappointed looks. The training field then was prepared for the duel. As for the instructor who will assess him. H
His past battle made him realize one thing, and that was to get stronger. He lacked the fundamental physique stats needed for passing the exam. And also, he needed more training. His skills were decent but not strong enough to face the next test. He would have to be stronger and more cunning in battle. Especially when using skills. The instructor was stronger indeed but it was a feat to defeat a veteran like that. It would normally not be easy to defeat him as they have standards. His Dexterity still lacked and even though it was by far the greatest in numbers, it still failed to be compared to the instructor. He would need also his strength to be higher or greater.His endurance was only 1 and so he will have to also increase it too. By killing gargoyles that were giving +1 Endurance and +10 Health points. Or a Demon bear that gives +3 Strength and +3 Endurance. It also gives +10 health points as a bonus. The perfect monster to kill with his shortage of physique stats. Also, he w
Arthas was contemplating what skill pages he will buy. As of now, he only has 6 skills and his savings will have to be used for buying skill pages.And he only has an ample amount of gold coins to buy 5 of them. With just that, he will have to earn more. He only has a few skills available for purchase as he became a novice rank. They were still weak skills but all will change when he arrives at adept rank.There will be more damage types of active skills in the future as he ascends his rank. As for now, he has support skills or conventional skills. Still, they were important foundations for your rank. As for his current skills, they laid a good foundation for his prowess.The six skills were important for his growth. As such, he has to make them grow and make them stronger skills. As for its speed of growth, it was minimal. He has the Earth realm in his cultivation potential; the realm of trash.He went up early and exercised in the morning. The morning breeze was chilly and he could
