Zen thought about his gains and how he should use them,
'So I got about 150 points from the starter pack, which I could use to upgrade my skills, but it seems like a waste as I could just train and achieve it, it would just take time. That is not a problem though as I possess the best talent.'
'There should be better ways to use the points other than my skills.'
Zen muttered to himself, "Hmm, maybe just one time, as I will be heading to the Twilight Forest soon. I'll need my skills upgraded as much as I can."
"Also, by changing the plot earlier, the system directly upgraded my innate ability."
Accumulating ten points will result in a one percent improvement in the mastery of a skill. He used a total of forty points to achieve a Domain mastery level of five percent.
Additionally, he assigned a total of eighty points towards the mastery of his Defiant Sword skill, thereby achieving a mastery level of ten percent.
Zen uttered the word 'system' in his mind, and then a bluish, transparent screen appeared displaying his status.

Zen prioritized upgrading his swordsmanship primarily due to the explanation he provided to his father. The second rationale revolves around his personal preference for swordsmanship, as he deems it more captivating and appealing.
After glancing at the screen, he wanted to try out all his skills. He emerged from the rear end of his villa, where a substantial woodland adorned the surroundings, with a designated open space for honing skills at the center.
The vicinity was encircled by numerous residences resembling capsules, boasting sufficient space for each individual to fulfill their bathing, dining, and sleeping needs.
The residence units, resembling capsules in shape, were interlinked, giving rise to an immense edifice boasting twenty-five stories, where every floor accommodated approximately one hundred rooms.
The practice field area was filled with guards sparring with each other, and at the side of the practice field was Bundoc. A Greater Swordsman, this person was the one who taught Zen the basics of swords.
A palpable silence overtook the entire vicinity as Zen made his way through the surroundings, finally reaching Bundoc's position.
One guard discreetly murmured, though his words were slightly audible, "Hey, the young master is here. I wonder what he's up to again."
"He is not here to cause trouble, is he?"
Another guard spoke and urged the person who was speaking to shut up and told him about what happened earlier, "You should shut your mouth if you don't want your head flying off."
"Have you heard that something happened earlier that caused Lord Randell to execute some maids?"
"I heard that young master said something that caused the Lord to execute those maids."
The person who was whispering earlier gulped, swallowing his saliva in his throat.
Just as they were discussing what Zen's motive was for coming to the practice field. Zen spoke out and told Bundoc, "Bundoc, I've reached the Intermediate rank of swordsmanship. I wanted to try out my skills, so I came to find you to spar."
Bundoc widened his eyes in disbelief. "Young master, you are joking, right? It took me at least 8–10 years to get into the intermediate rank, finally getting it at 20 years old. You are very talented, I admit, but intermediate rank at 10 years old?!"
Zen then told him firmly, "I am quite serious, Bundoc, and that is why I am asking you to spar with me."
The crowd also heard what Zen said, and they were baffled and full of disbelief. Which did not surprise Zen at all, to be honest. Because a ten-year-old Intermediate was an anomaly at this point.
The only person that Zen can think of who can pull off this type of thing is Edward, the protagonist, but even so, he would still be slower than Zen.
A guard expressed, "No way, right? Even Lord Randell, Emperor of the Swords, was not this fast when he was practicing the swords," he sighed, thinking, 'Sure enough, the younger generation surpasses the old.'
Although a little skeptical, they still dare to believe it. The reason for that is that Zen was the offspring of two of the most powerful people on the Pontiac planet.
Bundoc sighed and said, "Alright then, young master, let's test out your skills. I will suppress my sword aura at an Intermediate."
Thinking about it, He wanted to fight someone who had a higher rank than him, so he conveyed Bundoc, "No need, just suppress it to Advanced."
Bundoc frowned slightly, as he was still a Greater swordsman and should have more understanding of the swords than Zen. He believed that even if he were to suppress his sword aura, to Intermediate. He could still win against Zen with his better understanding of swords.
But what can he do? It was an order from the young master of Raverdieu, his orders were absolute, so he listened to Zen and lowered his aura to Advanced.
The training area was teeming with guards, and both ends of the arena were brimming with individuals engaged in the discourse regarding the anticipated victor.
"Despite the young master's undeniable talent, he has recently attained the Intermediate level. So, it seems improbable for him to win against Bundoc."
"Right, Bundoc also only lowered his aura to Advanced which is still one level higher than the young master..."
Just as they were discussing, the fight started. They were both using wooden swords and although they were made out of wood, they were still strong enough to withstand their aura.
Zen summoned forth his celestial dominion, known as the Tempest of Blades, which caused four turbulent pillars of lightning-charged swords to encircle the immediate vicinity.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm This pillar enables Zen to wield his Defiant Sword with exceptional speed, allowing him to strike four times consecutively in an instant. His wooden sword had also been infused with an electrical charge.
The next moment, four lightning blades slash out, and Zen also used one of his magic skills, Ball lightning, to shoot at Bundoc and cause him to be stunned. What followed directly sent him flying.
His eyes widened in a state of disbelief, unable to comprehend what just happened, preceding his loss of consciousness.
A hush descended upon the entirety of the arena. Zen swiftly engaged Bundoc in combat, leaving him no opportunity to respond before overpowering him.
Normally, you will be able to activate a domain once you reach the Great Mage or Great Swordsman rank, but if you were to practice both swords and magic, you would be able to activate a domain.
One guard stated, "Does that mean the young master also knows magic? What the hell is this monster?!"
They then in unison thought that the entire Raverdieu family will again prosper with the appearance of this monster.
Looking at his attractive face, which seems like he can't even lift a small rock or kill a chicken, the crowd could not even connect this kid with the one earlier who ferociously defeated a Greater Swordsman in an instant.
After the battle, all the guards emitted a collective exclamation of enthusiasm and jubilation. Screams echoed throughout the entirety of the villa. The screams and cheers were audible to people situated at a distance of four miles from the vicinity.
Zen muttered to himself, saying, "I guess I still underestimated my prowess, I should be able to retreat unscathed if I ever face a Greater Swordsmaster. So when I go to the Twilight Zone, I should be able to defeat at least a Tier 3 beast."
'I'll be good to go at midnight. I'll have to skillfully sneak out to avoid trouble with my parents. If they knew where I was going, they would definitely not agree.'
