My talent panel can be increased.

Chapter 67 Holy crap! Box!

After Xiao Guang left, Ye Mingqiu turned to Tang Ruobing beside him and asked, "She seems a bit hostile towards me. Do you have any clues?"

Tang Ruobing remained calm and replied frankly, "If you don't mind being interrupted halfway through the special training and having your chance to ask questions taken away, then I can help you with that."

Does she have many problems?

"She's a chatterbox."

"That's it."

Ye Mingqiu decisively refused. If it was just a question he wanted to ask, then he could listen and learn along the way, and maybe he could even learn something from it.

But if it's a chatterbox
So, she probably asked the question just to start a conversation and make it easier to chat, rather than because she really had any questions to ask. As the conversation goes on, the topic might veer off to who knows where, and then he won't be able to say anything, since she's someone's friend.

but
If we're just a talkative friend, why would she be so hostile towards me? I have a strange feeling of lesbianism about me.

"What level of strength does she possess?" Ye Mingqiu asked curiously.

“A level 7 hero-level mage can rank in the top five of the mage rankings, and with good luck, can even reach third,” Tang Ruobing replied with a light smile.

A level 7 mage? Can't even scratch him!
Ye Mingqiu silently cast a resentful glance at him.

Seeing this, Tang Ruobing quickly explained, "Don't worry, she's my friend, and I know her personality. Although Xiaoguang might dislike you, you're my teammate and my friend, so she definitely won't do anything to you."

"Ah."

Ye Mingqiu nodded without doubt. Although he had sensed hostility from the other party, he had not felt any malice or murderous intent, which meant that the other party was indeed not a bad person.

"Let's go. I found a few general spells for you at home last night. You should learn them first, and it's best to master them all before the team battle starts."

"Ah."

Ye Mingqiu nodded, and casually asked as they walked, "By the way, what is your inherent talent? If it's inconvenient to reveal it, then don't."

"It's nothing, just a basic passive skill that enhances magic-based abilities," Tang Ruobing replied.

"Yeah."

Ye Mingqiu murmured softly, his body pausing for a moment, but he quickly followed up.

When he first met Tang Ruobing, the doctor at the school clinic told him that Tang Ruobing's innate talent was to improve her luck attribute by "accumulating merit".

Ye Mingqiu believed it at the time, after all, he didn't know Tang Ruobing and didn't know what kind of person she was. But after spending some time with her, he felt that the truth might not be so.

The reason is simple: if Tang Ruobing's talent is really the so-called "accumulating merits," then she shouldn't be so indifferent when facing others, but rather more enthusiastic about offering help, especially when facing acquaintances. However, her performance is too indifferent, as if she doesn't care at all.

Out of curiosity, Ye Mingqiu asked a question and confirmed that Tang Ruobing's talent was indeed unrelated to accumulating merit. But if it wasn't related to talent, why did she help others before? Why did Chen Ran say she liked to tease Xiao Chunan? Why were there such rumors circulating online?
What is known so far is that Tang Ruobing does seem to have provided some assistance to Xiao Chunan at some point in the past, and asked for his thanks afterward. However, this gratitude did not stem from any merit, but rather from some other reason.

Other causes
Why is that?
Suddenly, Ye Mingqiu's expression changed slightly, as if he had suddenly realized something.

Xiao Chunan!
Why were all the people Tang Ruobing helped Xiao Chunan before? Was she targeting a specific group with her help, and was her request for thanks actually a way to confirm something rather than express gratitude?
With a heart full of trepidation, Ye Mingqiu followed behind Tang Ruobing and opened his communicator to check the "Victim Group" website that Chen Ran had sent him earlier. He observed the self-narrations of each person and combined them to make inferences.

At the very beginning.
The initial group of victims
It is a warrior type
Ye Mingqiu suddenly remembered his original self, who was a fake graduate of the warrior department. Thinking of this, his throat bobbed slightly, and his gaze towards Tang Ruobing's back changed accordingly.

If he wasn't mistaken, this guy was clearly guessing through the chat and opening boxes for a specific group!
Holy crap! Box!

Ye Mingqiu quickly exited the website, turned off the communicator, put it back in his pocket, and comforted himself: This is just a guess, just my guess, it may not be the truth. Maybe she has other equipment that needs to be farmed for merit points? Maybe she has other titles that need to be cultivated? It may not just be opening a box.
"what happened to you?"

Tang Ruobing suddenly turned her head and looked at Ye Mingqiu, whose expression had changed, with a puzzled expression. She tilted her head slightly and asked him in confusion.

"It's my first time learning magic like this, so it's understandable that I'm a little excited," Ye Mingqiu replied.

Although he really wanted to ask directly and once and for all, he still didn't dare to ask. If his guess was true, he couldn't imagine what would happen next.

"Oh, it's okay. There will be many more opportunities to learn like this in the future. Study hard and don't waste the time I've invested in you."

As she spoke, Tang Ruobing turned around and used facial recognition to open the door to her private training room, waving to invite Ye Mingqiu to train together.

Looking at the open door, Ye Mingqiu suddenly realized something: he seemed to spend less time training in his own private training room than in this guy's private training room, and this phenomenon might continue for a very long time.

He fell into a brief silence, then erupted with an unprecedented desire to become stronger, his eyes burning like fire, and an angry roar in his heart.

No way! This absolutely won't do! I'm going to get my revenge later and bring her to my private training room to give her a good lesson!
Before that, let's drain her dry with studying!

"I'd like to learn some meditation techniques, but I haven't found anything useful online. Do you have any meditation techniques you can teach?" Ye Mingqiu asked directly.

"Meditation."

Tang Ruobing looked troubled. She gently rested her chin on one hand and replied, "Yes, I do have one, but it's my family's meditation method. You're not my family, so I can't teach it to you. Meditation methods are different from general techniques, so I really can't help you with this."

"oh, I understand now."

Ye Mingqiu nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.

While the basic universal spells used at level 1 in the early stages are valuable, they are nothing to large families. Every family has them, the only difference is the quantity. It doesn't matter if a little bit of this knowledge is leaked out.

But meditation
This involves a more in-depth aspect.
