Four Skills for All.

Once everything settled down, the school's teachers arrived at the scene shortly afterward.

Mo Xiu's homeroom teacher, Gao Quan, was also among the first to arrive. When he learned what had happened, he was utterly shocked. The three students had actually managed to defeat an adult demon eagle together.

At this moment, Mo Xiu and his two companions were enjoying the grateful and enthusiastic applause from their classmates.

Mo Xiu extended his right hand to the bespectacled boy and said, "Hello, my name is Mo Xiu, and this is Zheng Yi."

The bespectacled boy had regained his slender build. After adjusting his glasses, he grasped Mo Xiu's hand and said, "Liu Qingyu, I've heard how amazing you are before, but judging from this experience, everyone's evaluation of you is still too low."

Mo Xiu was taken aback. He had originally thought Liu Qingyu was an introverted person, otherwise he wouldn't have such skills but no fame.

But after hearing Liu Qingyu's magnanimous and appropriate words, I realized that this person was definitely not simple. He was not famous simply because he was low-key.

Mo Xiu wanted to chat with Liu Qingyu a bit more, but Zheng Yi, that rascal, interrupted.

"What are you two talking about? This battle can be summed up in two words: awesome! Haha, Mo Xiu, you're really something, that was a fucking satisfying battle."

Mo Xiu sighed helplessly, knowing that Zheng Yi would steer any serious topic astray.

Liu Qingyu readily agreed, saying, "Awesome! Awesome!"

Seeing the teachers walking towards them, Liu Qingyu immediately bowed and took his leave.

"See you later, everyone. I'm in Class 2 of Senior Three. Feel free to come to me anytime if you need any help. I don't like to show off, so I'll take my leave now."

Mo Xiu was very puzzled; this Liu Qingyu was really strange.

A group of teachers, led by Gao Quan, were present. Mo Xiu and Zheng Yi were both Gao Quan's students and were quite familiar with each other. Although they had many questions, they only asked a few simple questions before letting the two leave.

The priority now is to reassure the students and investigate why the Demon Eagle suddenly appeared at the school.

It's important to know that Shuncheng is not located on the edge of human settlements, so wild animals rarely appear there. The fact that they appeared directly on campus this time means that things are definitely not that simple.

Mo Xiu and Zheng Yi went straight home, both exhausted after the battle.

Real combat is completely different from training, especially since such intense battles are even more physically demanding.

The whole process took no more than three minutes, but for Mo Xiu, it was more tiring than training for an entire afternoon.

When Mo Xiu returned home and found that his mother was still not there, he went straight to his room and lay down.

Looking at his skill, it had indeed become the Descent of the God of War, but it was currently on cooldown and unusable.

Mo Xiu fell asleep without realizing it, and was woken up by his mother when he woke up again.

"Xiao Xiu, get up and eat. Today is your birthday, and I stewed your favorite pheasant."

Following his mother to the dining table, Mo Xiu was somewhat moved as he looked at the four dishes and one soup laid out on the table.

In this era, since birthdays and awakenings happen on the same day, the significance of birthdays has been diluted.

Ordinary families often first check what skills their child has awakened. If the skills are quite good, they will invite relatives and friends to celebrate in a big way.

If the awakened skills are not ideal, some parents may offer a few words of comfort, but the vast majority of parents will be very unhappy, and may even give their children a hard time, let alone celebrate.

This cannot be entirely blamed on the parents; it is caused by the overall environment. Skills are extremely important for a person.

Li Yuan, on the other hand, would meticulously celebrate every birthday for Mo Xiu, but she didn't care much about skills.

Just like when I saw Mo Xiu awaken in the morning, I simply asked him how it was, and Mo Xiu simply replied that it was not bad.

After that, her mother never mentioned awakening or skills again, which was perhaps a testament to her love and trust in her.

Mo Xiu ate with his head down, not mentioning what had happened that day, afraid of worrying his mother.

This is also an old habit of Mo Xiu's; he always reports good news and never bad news.

"Mom, I'm preparing to take the entrance exam for Yenching University. You can quit your job here and come with me to Yenching."

The mother picked up a piece of chicken and placed it in Mo Xiu's bowl, smiling as she said, "Mom is getting old and doesn't want to go through all that trouble anymore. You go ahead and pursue your goals; I won't hold you back."

"Mom, I don't want you to stay here alone. You've taken care of me for 18 years. When I get into university, it'll be my turn to take care of you."

Li Yuan tapped Mo Xiu's head with her chopsticks. She used to do this often when she was little, but she hadn't hit Mo Xiu like that for many years.

"The world is not as simple as you think. When I was a child, I asked you whether you wanted to make something of yourself or live a peaceful life with your mother. Your answer back then determined my answer today."

"mom......"

"Don't say anymore! Just come back to see Mom when you have the chance."

Mo Xiu looked at his mother's resolute face and said nothing more. Instead, he clenched his fists and vowed never to let his mother suffer again, never!

After dinner, Mo Xiu went out to a deserted mountain near his home.

Mo Xiu already has a basic understanding of his skills, and he's here to test his ideas.

After looking around to make sure no one was nearby, unleash the skill "Descent of the God of War".

Mo Xiu kept staring at his skill icon. The moment he used the Descent of the God of War, the passive skill's flipped icon changed for the first time, flashing briefly.

Then the skill icon for the Descent of the God of War rotated once, and the entire icon flipped to the back, which was the back of the image of God's Peeping.

So that's how it is. Mo Xiu finally understood completely that he did indeed have three skills.

God's Peep and God of War's Descent are essentially two skills that are stuck together back to back. When one skill is released, the passive skill flip is triggered, causing the entire skill to flip to the other skill on the other side.

Mo Xiu sighed deeply; there was nothing wrong with his skills, nor was there any uncertainty.

With two active skills, Mo Xiu is a level above his peers.

The power of the skill further strengthened Mo Xiu's determination to become stronger. At this moment, he was in the state of the Descent of the God of War and began to throw punches.

After completing a set of punches, Mo Xiu felt exhilarated. On the surface, it seemed that Mo Xiu's strength had increased by 100% after activating his special state.

In fact, it's more than that. Since it's a comprehensive attribute boost, with agility, strength, and reaction speed all being utilized together, the overall strength increase is definitely more than 100%.

Afterwards, Mo Xiu ran at full speed through the mountains and forests to train his coordination in this state.

Attribute enhancement is one thing, but being able to fully utilize it is another. Only when Mo Xiu is fully adapted to fighting in the enhanced state can he unleash the full power of the Descent of the God of War.

Just like the battle this afternoon, Mo Xiu and Zheng Yi activated their skills at the same time and rushed towards the Demon Eagle.

Zheng Yi's skill only increases speed by 100%, while Mo Xiu increases all attributes by 100%.

Logically, Mo Xiu should have arrived faster, but Zheng Yi reached the Demon Eagle before Mo Xiu.

This is because Mo Xiu was not yet proficient enough when using the skill for the first time, and did not unleash its full power.

Zheng Yi's understanding and proficiency in his skills far surpassed that of Mo Xiu.
