187: The first Grandmaster skill choice

Chen Xiangbei calmed his excited mood and seriously analyzed the current situation.

First, his big goal is to build his own island, which requires a large sum of money. Currently, there are several sources of funding.

One is stable long-term fishing, one is accepting variety shows for payment, and the other is finding pearls to sell for money.

In fact, there is another way, which is to find Ornamental Fish in the ocean. Marine Ornamental Fish are much more valuable than freshwater Ornamental Fish, but he has not yet researched their origins.

As for the financial industry, he won't know if he can make money until tomorrow.

Chen Xiangbei first used the Master-level Skill Upgrade Card to upgrade Advanced Fighting Technique to Master-level Martial Arts Skill.

In an instant, as if a mysterious spiritual light flashed, superb martial arts skills and techniques surged into Chen Xiangbei's mind like a tide.

They were not acquired later, but like innate instincts, flowing naturally in his thoughts.

These skills and techniques unfolded slowly in his mind like a colorful scroll.

Every movement, every move was so clear, as if it was a part of his body, and he could perform it without thinking.

Chen Xiangbei felt as if he was in a wonderful world of martial arts, with various exquisite techniques constantly emerging in his mind.

He could clearly feel the strength, speed, and precision of every movement, as if these techniques were deeply imprinted in his soul.

The martial arts techniques presented in his mind were like nimble birds, light and agile; and like steady mountains, solid and powerful. They merged and complemented each other, forming a unique and powerful martial arts system.

At this moment, Chen Xiangbei's eyes flickered with confidence and determination, and those superb martial arts skills and techniques silently became one of his sources of confidence.

Although this society is now stable and peaceful, and there are no fights happening at every turn, the main purpose of practicing martial arts is to allow idiots to communicate with you calmly, just like last time at Fishermen's Wharf!

After absorbing this martial arts knowledge, the Master-level Upgrade Skill Card was temporarily put into Chen Xiangbei's personal space, waiting until after tomorrow to know where exactly to use it.

Currently, his Master-level skills include: Master-level Fishing Technique, Master-level Martial Arts, Master-level Singing Technique, Master-Level Cooking Skill, Master-Level Musical Instrument Proficiency, Master-level Medical Skill, and Master-Level Financial Skill.

Among these, he has already decided to choose one between Master-level Medical Skill and Master-Level Financial Skill to advance.

If the stock market returns are good tomorrow, he will use it on financial skills. If not ideal, he will use it on medical skills.

Among the three rewards, there was also a free attribute point reward. Chen Xiangbei added it directly to the intelligence point without even thinking.

Because when looking at stocks today, the benefits brought by high intelligence were quite obvious. Whether it was clarity of mind, logical thinking ability, or mental calculation ability, etc., all aspects of brain usage showed important roles.

And his physique was already more than a full point higher than his intelligence, so adding to intelligence was urgent, otherwise the phenomenon of developed limbs and simple minds would only become more and more serious!

“Hoo~”

The moment the intelligence point was added, his body felt as if it was floating in the clouds, without any sense of weight. Every cell stretched out, as if being gently blown by a breeze.

His heartbeat was as steady as a calm lake, without a single ripple. His brain felt as if it had been purified, clear and transparent, and his thoughts were as fast as lightning.

His limb movements were smooth and natural, effortless, as if he truly controlled his body at this moment.

The perfect combination of brainpower and physical strength allowed his body to reach a special state, without any sense of burden.

This extreme sense of ease made him feel as if he had transcended the constraints of the mundane world, immersed in an unspeakable pleasure.

Chen Xiangbei felt extremely comfortable! The stress brought by the accumulated things these days instantly dissipated, and the slight fatigue brought by a day's labor also vanished instantly.

He comfortably stretched, lay quietly on the sofa, and slowly fell asleep.

In his dream, the beast-eared girls seemed to be celebrating him, and uncharacteristically, they didn't bother him, but just gave him an extremely relaxing full body massage.

The next morning at 6 o'clock, it was still twilight.

Chen Xiangbei stretched comfortably, as if he had really been massaged all night. His physical condition was better than ever.

He quickly got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

After finishing his personal hygiene, he leisurely returned to his room, selected two sets of clothes from the wardrobe, packed them into a small suitcase, and would let the assistants carry them later.

It's easy to be suspected if you don't carry anything when you're out. Just carry a little to cover up, and put important things in your personal space.

For this variety show, the production team had prepared costumes and props for the artists, so he didn't need to bring his own, which also saved him the trouble of worrying about what to wear.

At 6:30 in the morning, the doorbell rang on time.

Chen Xiangbei pulled open all the curtains, letting the outside light in, and turned on all the lights. The Starlight Fish in the ecological fish tank instantly turned into normal transparent fish.

Then he went to open the door. As soon as the door opened, his agent Yu Jin, Li Muyu, and assistants Zhou Yiran and Wang Yiyi, a group of four, greeted him one after another.

“Good morning, Boss!”

Chen Xiangbei smiled, “Don't do that. Come in quickly. I've already packed. I just need to change clothes and we can leave.”

The few people followed Chen Xiangbei into the house. At his signal, everyone found a place to sit down awkwardly.

Chen Xiangbei returned to his room, changed his clothes, and then came out to the living room to chat with everyone.

“Have your accommodation issues been resolved?”

Yu Jin was the first to answer, “It has been resolved. We are all renting in the same complex, on the same floor, which is convenient for taking care of each other.”

“That's good. After this announcement is completed, you will come back and set up a studio to improve it. At that time, public and private will be separated to reduce some trouble.”

“We understand, Boss.” Everyone answered in unison.

“Alright, let's go. It will take more than an hour to get to the airport, so let's not delay the schedule.”

So, everyone followed Chen Xiangbei out of the complex and got into a pre-arranged car at the complex entrance, heading towards the airport in a grand manner.

At over eight o'clock in the morning, the special car carrying everyone slowly stopped in front of the terminal building.

Assistant Zhou Yiran took everyone to the check-in counter to handle the relevant procedures. Wang Yiyi mainly followed Chen Xiangbei to solve some small matters for him at any time.

At 8:50 a.m., they successfully boarded the plane. Chen Xiangbei sat in first class, while the others were in economy class. Except in special circumstances, agents and assistants generally travel in economy class.
