Don't mess with that necromancer; his summoned creatures level up on their own!

Ye Qinglan was no longer calm.

She took a step forward and looked down at the glowing thing in Ah Hu's palm.

"A valuable bloodline item. If I remember correctly, this is the first one in Dachang City this year, right?"

Ah Hu swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"Wow, this dog's luck is just too good!"

Ye Qinglan slapped Ah Hu on the back of the head.

"How dare you talk like that? Who are you calling a dog?"

Ah Hu clutched the back of his head, baring his teeth, and quickly corrected himself: "I meant me! I'm a dog! If I had that kind of luck, I'd be willing to be a dog!"

Seeing the two's exaggerated reactions, Lu Zhixing couldn't help but become curious.

He stepped forward and took the Heart of Wind and Blood from Ah Hu's palm.

[Item: Heart of Windblood]

[Quality: Epic]

[Attribute: Water/Blood/Wind]

"Brother Hu, is this thing really useful?"

Ah Hu was so excited that he kept slapping his thigh.

"Hey! Young master! This is more than just useful! Using this allows you to master combined attack techniques! This thing is priceless, you can't buy it even if you have money!"

"Young master, you are a necromancer. Without elemental affinity, learning combo skills is many times more difficult than for other professions."

Having this passionate heart is like directly crossing the most difficult threshold, gaining a skill for free!

Ye Qinglan looked at the beating Heart of Wind and Blood in Lu Zhixing's palm and smiled slightly.

The young master's luck is indeed ridiculously good.

But thinking about it carefully, is it really just luck?

From the Abyss dungeons to the Beast Tide BOSS, behind every stroke of luck, the young master always demonstrated the strength to match.

If he didn't have that kind of micro-management, if he didn't have the courage to face a level 35 BOSS alone.

Such luck simply wouldn't fall on his head.

"Um... Brother Hu, what's a combined attack technique?"

Ah Hu stared at the Heart of Wind and Blood in Lu Zhixing's hand, his Adam's apple bobbing.

As an S-rank bloodline mage, his desire for such things was ingrained in his very bones.

But he was a member of the special forces, a soldier of the Lu family. He wouldn't even consider taking the young master's things, no matter how much he wanted them.

"The so-called combination attack is to fuse two different elemental powers to create a super-level skill that combines the characteristics of both."

"This kind of skill is usually only mastered by top-tier combatants."

Ye Qinglan nodded and added, "To master a combined attack skill, you must have a high-rated affinity with both elemental types."

He paused, then his gaze returned to the Heart of Wind and Blood.

"But to master combined attack techniques, this elemental material is essential; it's the medium used to harmonize different elements. Without it, it's impossible to successfully master it."

Lu Zhixing nodded, seemingly lost in thought: "So, this thing is really hard to buy?"

Ah Hu chuckled lightly: "This kind of thing is priceless and has no market. For example, this Heart of Wind and Blood in your hand, if it were put at an auction, the starting price would be at least this much."

He held up five fingers.

Lu Zhixing raised an eyebrow.

Five million? Fifty million?

Ah Hu saw Ye Qinglan confirm, and Ye Qinglan nodded in agreement: "Once this kind of thing is put out, it will be snapped up by top professionals immediately."

It's not just mages—warriors, assassins, priests—any class that needs to develop two specializations requires this.

Ah Hu picked up the conversation, speaking faster: "Not only are dual-elemental rare, but even single-elemental ones are very rare."

For example, the Titan's Heart that Dachang City plans to award to the top scorer in this major exam is a single-type material.

This single-element material can greatly increase the success rate of mastering mid-to-high-level elemental skills, and it is extremely rare and expensive on the market.

Lu Zhixing raised an eyebrow.

Good guy.

It seems my luck is truly extraordinary.

But his brows furrowed again as he glanced at the two back-to-back icons in the skill bar and began to have doubts.

The little zombie and the little vampire don't seem to have a good relationship.

These two can actually create a combined attack?

Lu Zhixing asked himself, "Can you two pull off a combined attack technique?"

[“Little Zombie”: Hmph, I'm enough on my own. Who wants to cooperate with that guy who couldn't even protect his master?]

[The Little Vampire: This young lady has no interest in cooperating with a brute.]

[Little Zombie: Who are you calling a brute?]

[“Little Vampire”: Whoever answers first, that's it.]

Lu Zhixing remained silent for a moment.

Okay, he rephrased the question: "So, you two should be able to create a combined wind and blood elemental attack?"

The two summoned creatures started causing an uproar, with messages popping up one after another.

[The "little zombie" looked disgusted: What kind of combo attack do you want me to perform with this guy? Impossible, absolutely impossible!]

[“Little Zombie”: I can take on ten by myself! No help needed!]

[The "little vampire" shook her head vehemently: It's not like I want to be with you! I protest! I protest!]

Lu Zhixing ignored the argument between the two summoned creatures.

How could I not use something this awesome?

Ultimately, they are his summoned creatures, meant to serve him, their master. How could they possibly be picky?

Ah Hu continued talking non-stop, completely unaware that Lu Zhixing's attention had shifted away from him.

"Young master, even if you use this material, it's not guaranteed that you'll master the combined attack technique."

It's generally recommended to use this at a higher level, when you have a deep understanding and appreciation of both elemental types; the success rate will be higher then. And—"

He paused, his expression turning serious.

"Young Master, you are a summoner with no elemental affinity. Having no elemental affinity means that your perception and control over elements are inherently weaker than those of ordinary summoners."

Using it would have an extremely high failure rate, at least 90%. Therefore, my suggestion is…”

Ah Hu didn't finish his sentence.

"Click."

A crisp cracking sound.

Ah Hu and Ye Qinglan both froze.

The expressions of both people were frozen in this frame.

Their gaze slowly shifted from Lu Zhixing's face to his hands.

That Heart of Blood, that priceless and priceless Heart of Blood, is shattering between Lu Zhixing's fingers.

"Uh... I was too fast."

Ah Hu opened his mouth wide, feeling his heart pounding.

You're using it like this.

What level are you now? Level 15? Level 17?

I haven't even reached the threshold of intermediate-level skills, and the success rate is less than 10%, yet I'm using it like this.

My young master, can't you wait a little while?

A message popped up on the panel.

[Successfully used 'Heart of Wind and Blood'!]

[The 'Wind Element' and 'Blood Element' within you, under the guidance of the 'Heart of Wind and Blood'... are currently locked in a fierce battle at the center gate.]

Lu Zhixing's eyelids twitched as he looked at those four words.

Blood and wind elements clashed fiercely within his body, two streams of energy, one cold and one hot, surging in from his palms and colliding at his chest.

[“Little Zombie”: Don’t come any closer! I’m warning you, stay away from me!]

[Little Vampire: You think I wanted to get close to you? My master insisted on shoving me this way! Do you think I wanted to squeeze in with you?]

[Little Zombie: Then why don't you move over there a bit!]

[Little Vampire: Why don't you move over there? Why should I move?]

[“Little Zombie”: Because I was here first!]

[“Little Vampire”: First come, first served? Do you think this is a queue for food?]

The system panel popped up. Lines of text appeared on the screen.

[Successfully used "Heart of Wind and Blood".]

The "Wind Element" and "Blood Element" within you are fusing under the harmonizing influence of the "Heart of Wind and Blood."

Congratulations! You have successfully mastered the Wind and Blood Dual-Element Combination Skill – "Moonlight Bloodstorm" (Beginner Level)!

[Skill Description: Summons a storm of wind and blood, dealing continuous damage to all enemies within its area of ​​effect. Cooldown: 10 minutes.]

He then thought that when a normal person comprehends a combination technique, they need to carefully balance two completely different elements, like walking a tightrope, and the slightest mistake will cause all their efforts to be wasted.

The higher the level and the deeper the understanding of the elements, the higher the success rate.

But I'm different; my summoned creatures have brains.

Heart of Wind and Blood forcibly forced the little zombie and the little vampire into a room.

They are unwilling and have no choice but to rely on their instincts to automatically find the most perfect point of contact.

One was responsible for the wind, and the other for the blood; as they fought, they found a balance.

Lu Zhixing looked at the newly appeared icon in the skill bar.

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

The wind and blood intertwined, forming a tornado with a diameter of over ten meters.

Countless cyan wind blades spun rapidly on the dark red storm wall, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

Where the storm passed, the lake water was swirled up, the pebbles were crushed, and even the air trembled.

Ah Hu instinctively took several steps back, staring in horror at the raging storm.

The storm lasted for about ten seconds before slowly dissipating.

The lake returned to calm, with a faint smell of blood and lingering traces of wind in the air.

The storm-swept shoreline was marked with deep furrows, pebbles were crushed into powder, and withered grass was uprooted.

Ah Hu and Ye Qinglan exchanged a glance, both seeing the same emotion in each other's eyes—unparalleled shock.

A necromancer who had just changed jobs less than a week ago, without any elemental affinity, forcibly fused the Wind and Blood elements with a Heart of Wind and Blood, and mastered a combined ultimate skill.

And it was at level 15. And it was successful on the first try.

Moreover, judging from the power of that storm, it doesn't seem like something a beginner-level skill should have.

Is this what genius is?

Ye Qinglan was the first to come to her senses. Looking at the lazy boy who was brushing dust off his clothes, she gave a wry smile.

That wasn't mockery; it was the profound sense of powerlessness and helplessness that ordinary people feel when faced with truly monstrous geniuses.

The height you reach after ten years of hard training is surpassed by someone who just drinks a glass of watermelon juice, takes a nap, and casually picks up a stone.

What can you do?

All you can do is laugh.

She looked up at the sky, which had completely darkened.

"Young Master, it's getting late, we should head back. With your current strength, plus what happened earlier..."

That insane combination move will make me the envy of everyone in tomorrow's big exam. Just get some rest tonight.

Lu Zhixing nodded in complete agreement, rubbing his deflated stomach: "Indeed, it's time to go back. I'm starving."

[Little Zombie: Storm Dragon Liver! Storm Rhino Ribs! I killed hundreds of monsters today and even helped you learn a combo move, so you deserve an extra meal tonight!]

[Little Vampire: Can't you be a little more sensible? All you do is eat. But... I want some too. Blood element food, and it has to be fresh. I've used up a lot of energy today and need to replenish it.]

Lu Zhixing replied generously in his mind, "Sure, I have everything. I'm in a good mood today, so whatever you have at home, I'll make sure you get plenty."

Ye Qinglan took out her phone and dialed her adjutant's number.

"The car is coming; the young master is going back."

When we get home, I need to report the young master's situation today to Commander Lu and his wife.

Where should I begin?

Ye Qinglan took a deep breath and put her phone in her pocket.

Dachang City, Guanjiang Residential Area, Lu Family Villa.

The restaurant's long table was piled high with all sorts of premium ingredients.

The little zombie squatted in a corner of the dining table, each paw holding a piece of Storm Dragon liver, taking bites from the left and right.

The little vampire sat at the other corner of the table, with a plate of blood-red fruit and a bowl of blood lotus root soup in front of him.

[Little Zombie: Woohoo! This is the taste! Awesome, absolutely awesome!]

The little vampire looked blissfully happy: "Delicious...delicious..."

Lu Zaoxie sat in the main seat, a cigarette between his fingers, his gaze fixed on Lu Zhixing.

"Zhixing, you're almost level 20. It's about time you learned some new basic skills. Do you have any ideas?"

Shen Jing put down her chopsticks and looked at Lu Zhixing with anticipation.

"Yes, Zhixing, as long as you have a subject you want to study, Mom can get you the best basic skill books."

Lu Zhixing put down his chopsticks and fell into deep thought.

If you're going to learn something, you should definitely learn the best.

In addition to the four attributes of time, space, fate, and cause and effect.

At the top of the known professional hierarchy, two awe-inspiring attributes always stand:

Light and darkness.

If you could combine one of these two systems, you'd not only be cool, but also strong.

If only we could create a combined light and dark attack technique like in Windblood...

He looked up and tentatively asked, "Dad, Mom, since you've both spoken, could I learn...light magic? Or darkness magic?"

Lu Zaoxie and Shen Jing exchanged a glance.

Lu Zhixing was somewhat surprised: "What? Can't you get the skill books?"

With our family's financial resources, how could there be basic skill books that we can't get?

Shen Jing sighed softly, her tone becoming serious.

"Zhixing, you don't know this. Although the Light and Dark elements are known as the strongest elements below the four elements, their requirements for talent are extremely demanding."

The basic skill books for these two systems are firmly controlled by the state and will not enter the market.

"But that's not the point. The point is... without the corresponding elemental affinity, forcibly learning skills from these two elements will kill people."
