100: Mind Guarding Spirit Screen

At this moment, the monthly exam affairs had concluded.

After three monthly exams, the year was already drawing to a close.

In about half a month, it would be winter break.

Lin Shu returned to his room and began to consider his upcoming plans.

Currently, his strength had essentially made him unrivaled in high school.

There was no greater help or stage for him there.

Therefore, reaching the standard before the end of the winter break and heading to Central State University was an urgent matter.

However, with Black Night Saturn's current strength, he should not be able to clear the Trial Tower.

Yes, Lin Shu's goal was not just to reach the eleventh floor and simply obtain special recruitment qualifications.

If he was going to fight, then he would clear the Trial Tower.

Around level forty should be enough.

To become a Beastmaster and reach level 40 in less than half a year would be a rare feat, even in the Otherworld.

He wondered if there would be any extra benefits for clearing the Trial Tower?

His thoughts came to an abrupt halt, and Lin Shu did not dwell on it further.

His main goal now was to go to an Otherworld and steadily grind for proficiency.

After comprehensive consideration, Meihu Island was still the best option: a gentle environment, abundant spirit beasts, and no danger.

Just then, a message from his mentor suddenly arrived.

"It's the end of the year, and everything has been taken care of."

"Shall we go fishing with Wu Song?"

"I've also brought your secret technique with me."

This truly coincided with his thoughts.

Of course, he didn't hesitate and immediately agreed.

"No problem."

In the afternoon, his mentor arrived at the school, rode his White Feather Spirit Falcon, and took Lin Shu to Meihu Island... "How could something like this happen to you!"

"And it was in a shattered Otherworld; that's truly outrageous."

It was afternoon, and with Gu Li present, they arrived there in just a few hours.

The three of them were leisurely fishing by the lake, listening to Lin Shu recount the events of the past few days.

He found it unbelievable.

"What did everyone say?"

Lin Shu held his fishing rod and said lightly.

Black Night Saturn and Ziyu stood behind them, continuously honing their skills.

However, their gazes occasionally drifted forward.

They were always ready to pounce and catch the fish that were reeled in.

Gu Li said calmly, "This incident was a bit dangerous."

"Fortunately, the primary target wasn't you, otherwise..."

"In the future, you must be careful when facing such situations."

As he spoke, a crystal-clear spherical crystal appeared out of thin air and was handed to Lin Shu.

Lin Shu largely agreed with these words and took the item from his mentor's hand.

Clearly, this was a Beastmaster secret technique, similar to the Damage Transfer from before.

"This is 'Mind Protection Spirit Shield'."

"It's specifically used for Mental defense."

"And it can be applied to your spirit beasts."

Lin Shu smiled; it was good to have a generous mentor; as long as he had difficulties, he would receive help.

Wu Song was also extremely envious when he heard it was this secret technique.

This type of Mental defense secret technique was invaluable.

Wu Song currently also lacked such methods and was searching for them.

He complained a bit, "Lin Shu always gets more respect than I do."

"I also asked the Sect Master for this kind of secret technique before."

"But there was never any follow-up."

Hearing this somewhat sarcastic tone,

Gu Li shot Wu Song an annoyed glance.

"If you can also get specially recruited into Central State University like Lin Shu,"

"I'll give you a copy too."

"If not, then shut up; do you really think you can just ask for this kind of thing whenever you want?"

He had gone through a lot of trouble to get this secret technique from the vice-principal, and it had taken quite some effort.

As soon as these words came out, the latter immediately shrank his neck, not daring to continue.

Lin Shu helped smooth things over.

"Brother Wu, if I acquire a similar secret technique next time,"

"I will definitely prioritize letting you use it."

These words made Wu Song feel very comfortable, and with a wave of his hand, he patted Lin Shu's shoulder.

"Lin Shu's words are still the best to hear!"

Before Gu Li finished listening to him, he exhorted Lin Shu.

"Although this secret technique is very powerful, its learning difficulty is quite high."

"Converted into a skill, it's roughly equivalent to a super-tier skill."

"Moreover, I can't teach you; you'll have to hone it yourself."

A simple conversion made Lin Shu understand the difficulty of this Mind Protection Spirit Shield.

Fortunately, as long as he could make it appear on his panel, he could use his clones to grind it.

This secret technique absolutely had to be learned and mastered.

The unpredictable and undefendable possession was quite terrifying.

"Then from now on, I will prioritize learning Mind Protection Spirit Shield."

Gu Li nodded.

"A Beastmaster's Mental strength is as important as cultivating their spirit beasts."

"So, you must focus on both simultaneously."

"You'll understand these things later."

Wu Song nodded in agreement.

Not only in contracting spirit beasts, but high-tier Beastmasters could even use offensive secret techniques to influence the opponent's spirit beasts and change the flow of battle.

Unfortunately, his own learning ability and Mental growth rate were both too poor.

Lin Shu would be no exception.

"Mentor is right."

After this incident, he deeply felt this to be true.

"But you don't need to worry."

"On Blue Star, and within the territory of Great Xia,"

"Such things are too busy fleeing; they won't pose much threat to you."

There was absolute confidence in his words.

These words were also meant to make Lin Shu feel more at ease.

"Don't worry, Mentor."

"I want to learn the secret technique now."

Gu Li nodded; learning it early was good, it would be of great help in the future.

"You can learn with peace of mind; with my help,"

"No one can disturb you."

Hearing this, Lin Shu completely relaxed.

He put down his fishing rod and immediately intended to start learning.

Seeing Lin Shu so eager, it was clear that the pressure from the Otherworld soul had been considerable.

His Mental ocean, surging like a lake, stirred, and a powerful Mental force, like a spring breeze, transformed into an oval barrier.

It enveloped Lin Shu, forming an airtight and quiet environment.

Lin Shu also felt this barrier; all external sounds were cut off.

He also wanted to learn this secret technique, shook his head, and then abruptly crushed the crystal.

A torrent of abstruse and difficult-to-understand knowledge entered his mind.

The words, when separated, were easy to understand, but when combined, they created a sense of confusion and bewilderment, like reading an ancient, undecipherable text.

This level of difficulty, as his mentor had said, indeed made Lin Shu frown slightly.

He then relaxed his mind and began to slowly perceive and comprehend.

He knew that in such situations, he must not be anxious or slack off.

His heart was like still ice, unperturbed even if the sky fell.

He studied steadily, word by word, and soon became immersed in it.

Time flew by, and soon two hours had passed.

"Hoo."

Lin Shu, sitting cross-legged within the barrier, exhaled a turbid breath.

He had finally gotten an initial grasp of this Mind Protection Spirit Shield.

Naturally, it also appeared on his panel.

Mind Protection Spirit Shield - Novice (1 / 160)

Even at the novice stage, it required so much proficiency, truly living up to its learning difficulty.

(First hundred chapters, making a note.)
