Online Game: Me, with Unparalleled Comprehension

At that moment, a conversation among several players could be heard nearby:

"Hey guys, see that? Tianlong Temple! They must have some advanced martial arts techniques inside!"

"Nonsense, the Six Meridian Divine Sword! If I could learn it, wouldn't I be unstoppable?"

"But the guards are too tight, how are we going to get in?"

"What are you afraid of? Wait a minute, we'll climb over the wall! I see there's a blind spot in that wall over there, where there are fewer guards."

"Alright! Count me in! Fortune favors the bold!"

Wu Feng glanced at the group of people. They were all in their early twenties, with ordinary equipment and mixed auras. They were at most third-rate martial artists, and might not even be able to beat the few patrolling monks at the entrance.

Still want to sneak into Tenryu-ji Temple to search for treasure?

He couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Players' ability to court disaster is truly top-notch, no matter the game.

He had no interest in offering reminders or participating.

He found a tea stall not far from the temple gate, ordered a pot of the cheapest coarse tea, sat down in a corner, and leisurely drank it, but his eyes were always on the temple gate and the movements of those people.

Not long after, the group stealthily made their way toward the blind spot they had mentioned.

His movements were clumsy, his steps were heavy, and he didn't even know basic stealth techniques.

Wu Feng shook his head and looked at the two martial monks standing guard at the temple gate.

The two monks seemed to have noticed the commotion. One of them turned his head to look in the direction of the temple, then shook his head with a helpless expression on his face, and did not go to stop them.

"Looks like this isn't the first time he's dealt with something like this," Wu Feng realized.

It's estimated that these players who wanted to sneak in wouldn't even make it past the first checkpoint inside the temple; the monks guarding the gate didn't even bother with them.

Sure enough, not long after, a few short shouts and sounds of fists and feet clashing could be faintly heard from inside the temple, which quickly subsided.

Immediately afterwards, a small door on the side of the temple gate opened, and two monks threw out the players as if they were trash.

Several men were bruised and battered, their health bars barely hanging on, lying on the ground groaning. It seemed that some of the items in their backpacks had been confiscated, and their faces were ashen.

The surrounding players who were watching the spectacle burst into laughter.

Wu Feng took a sip of tea, but his gaze became slightly serious.

The commotion inside the temple subsided very quickly, and in that instant, he vaguely sensed a faint yet vast aura flashing past from the depths of the temple.

Although it was only for a moment, the strength and profundity of that aura were in no way weaker than that of Zhang Sanfeng, the patriarch of Wudang Mountain!

This aura was clearly a warning to others who harbored ill intentions like him, since those with weaker strength couldn't sense it at all.

"As expected, there's an old monster hiding his true strength in charge." Wu Feng muttered to himself, shook his head, finished the last of his tea, put down a few copper coins, and left without looking back.

Enemies of this caliber are absolutely not to be trifled with at the moment.

The game's designers clearly had this in mind, preventing players from taking shortcuts or cheating.

Want to steal secret techniques from a place like Tenryu-ji? Not so easy.

Since he couldn't go to Tianlong Temple, he didn't want to go looking for the Four Evils for the time being.

Duan Zhengchun invited eminent monks from Tianlong Temple to lead the attack, and the area must be in complete chaos right now.

The Four Evils were able to make a name for themselves in the martial arts world not only because of their strength, but also because of their first-rate skills in escaping and hiding; otherwise, they wouldn't have survived to this day.

It's unlikely we'll see them actually fight anytime soon, let alone see them taking advantage of any opportunities.

"Why not find some other benefits?" Wu Feng thought to himself.

He walked to a deserted corner of an alley, looked around to make sure no one was watching, then lightly touched the ground with his feet and leaped onto the roof of a nearby house like a hawk.

Standing on high ground, you can overlook a large part of Dali City.

His gaze fell upon a magnificent and sprawling mansion complex in the city—the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

Although Duan Zhengchun was a womanizer, he was not weak in martial arts, especially his One-Finger Divine Skill, which was quite proficient.

Could there be martial arts manuals left in his palace?

Even without the secret manuals, as members of the Dali royal family, their mansion must have a rich collection of books.

Reading more books can also improve one's understanding.

With that thought in mind, Wu Feng no longer hesitated.

He changed into that black night clothes, pulled up the mask, leaving only his eyes showing.

With the Lingbo Weibu and Heguang Tongchen mental techniques operating simultaneously within his body, his aura instantly became extremely restrained. His figure moved rapidly across the continuous rooftops, silently darting towards the direction of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

With a few leaps, they arrived at the high wall surrounding the Prince's Palace.

The Prince's Palace was more heavily guarded than ordinary areas, but it was still far less secure than Tianlong Temple.

The patrolling guards were mostly ordinary soldiers, and even the few with slightly stronger auras were only third-rate martial artists, posing no threat to him now.

Wu Feng lay hidden in the shadow of a rooftop, carefully observing for a moment. He then spotted a gap in the patrol of a group of guards and, like a falling leaf, gracefully descended, silently vaulting over the high wall and landing in the inner courtyard of the Prince's mansion.

With his feet firmly planted on solid ground, he immediately concealed himself among a clump of flowers and trees.

The courtyard features pavilions, terraces, gardens, and waterside pavilions, all arranged with exquisite detail.

Occasionally, maids and servants would hurry by carrying things, but they didn't exude any air of expertise.

Wu Feng waited patiently, confirmed the direction again, and stealthily made his way towards the most magnificent main building in the center of the palace.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a spacious living room, brightly lit, with servants cleaning.

"Not here." Wu Feng glanced at the buildings next to him.

The study, bedroom, practice room... these are more likely places.

He walked around the living room and came to a relatively quiet two-story building on the side.

There were lights on upstairs, but it was very quiet.

Spotting a half-open window on the second floor, Wu Feng lightly leaped up, hooked his hand on the windowsill, and peered inside.

Inside was an elegantly furnished study, with bookshelves on all four walls, piled high with books.

A large desk was placed in the center, with the Four Treasures of the Study (writing brush, ink stick, inkstone, and paper) and several open books neatly arranged on it.

nobody.

Wu Feng exerted force with his wrist, his body flipping into the window like a raccoon, landing silently.

Quickly scan the area to confirm it's safe.

He strode to the bookshelf, his eyes quickly scanning the spines of the books.

"The Customs and Things of Dali", "The Old History of Nanzhao", "The Family Instructions of the Duan Family", "Collected Annotations on the Analects"... most of them are historical books, miscellaneous notes, and commentaries on the classics.

He pulled out a book and flipped through it; it contained only ordinary content and no martial arts manuals.

But as his fingers brushed over several books with antique bindings and yellowed pages, a system notification suddenly popped up:

[A book titled "Strategies of the Warring States" (a literary work) has been found that could be studied. Should we study it?]

[I've found a book I could study: *The Art of War* (a literary work). Should I study it?]

[I've discovered a book I could study: *Zhuangzi* (a literary work). Shall I study it?]

[I've discovered a book I could study, "Chu Ci" (a literary work). Should I study it?]

[A book titled "Collection of Yuefu Poems" (a literary work) has been found that could be studied. Should we study it?]

Wu Feng's eyes lit up.

He had already read and learned the Four Books and Five Classics, the Three Character Classic, the Thousand Character Classic, the Hundred Family Surnames, and the Tao Te Ching during his spare time in Wudang Mountain and other places, which improved his understanding to some extent.

Unexpectedly, I found five more literary works here that I had never studied before.

Although these books cannot directly improve martial arts skills, each book you learn will permanently increase your comprehension attribute, making them invaluable in the long run.

"No wonder Duan Yu and Duan Zhixing are so quick to understand."

Wu Feng suddenly realized, "Royal family members are exposed to the world from a young age, their reading volume far exceeds that of ordinary people, and their comprehension and foundation are naturally profound."

Without hesitation, he chose to "study" one book after another.

The essence of strategy, military tactics, philosophy, and literature.

Although it couldn't be immediately converted into combat power, it seemed to broaden and cleanse his thinking, giving him a deeper understanding of many things.

[You have learned "Strategies of the Warring States" (Introduction), Comprehension +3.]

[You have learned "The Art of War" (Introduction), Comprehension +5.]

[You have learned the "Zhuangzi" (Introduction), Comprehension +4.]

[You have learned "Chu Ci" (Introduction), Comprehension +2.]

[You have learned the "Collection of Yuefu Poems" (Introduction), Comprehension +2.]

After studying all five books, his comprehension increased by a total of 16 points! Now, his comprehension attribute has reached an astonishing 366 points!

"This trip was worthwhile," Wu Feng thought with satisfaction.

He casually took the five books off the shelf and stuffed them into his backpack.

Although you've finished learning, you can keep the book and read it repeatedly in the future to improve your proficiency.

After quickly searching through the study again and confirming that there were no other books to learn from or hidden martial arts manuals, Wu Feng did not linger.

He walked to the window, listened carefully to the sounds outside, and when he confirmed that no one was around, he leaped out of the window again.
