"Crack crack crack"
Understanding that they weren't going to continue with their training the giant serpent shrunk its body to its base form. Its eyes glimmered with a sharp light as it continued to shrink its body until it was only the size of a medium-sized snake and wrapped itself around Yoze's arm.
"You can even shrink your body?" Yoze looked at the previous giant serpent with surprise as he didn't think that its transformation went both ways.
However, he shrugged his shoulders as he felt that since his serpent could change his size both ways it was just more convenient for him. With everything done and still having some time before his talent marks refreshed Yoze went over to the library to take a look at the various martial arts.
After asking around he eventually reached a tall tree that was more than 300 feet tall and 90 feet wide. The inside of the tree had been hollowed out to be turned into the Beast Hunter Sect's martial art library.
When Yoze entered the library he saw hundreds of martial artists inside with their beasts. Each of the martial artists had serious faces written on their faces as they read books on their specific animals.
While their owners read their books on how to best take care of them, many of the animals ran around and explored the library themselves. From what he gathered from asking around even though the library was based in such a large tree it only had four floors.
And each floor had taken up a huge amount of space in the tree to make sure that any animal would be able to go inside and move around freely. The first floor was the floor where all the information about animals, plants, and other information was stored so this floor was always the busiest.
After looking around for a bit, Yoze could tell that the information on the animals was much more detailed compared to the book he received. Each book only went over one animal at a time and after reading the books on giant serpents and goats there wasn't much else he currently needed.
After planning to take as many books as he could when he destroyed the Beast Hunter Sect, Yoze turned his attention to the second floor. Remembering that the old man at the register said that the martial art techniques were on the second floor, Yoze decided to ignore the first floor and went upstairs to the next floor.
When Yoze arrived on the second floor he noticed that there were fewer people and animals around. And even the animals in this behaved very differently from the ones on the bottom floor.
The animals on this floor were more well-behaved and stayed near their owners while their owners tried their best to understand the martial art techniques in their hands. From a glance, Yoze could tell that these animals were the ones that had been successfully turned into beasts.
Knowing that he had arrived at the right place, Yoze walked around the second floor and picked up techniques that he found interesting. As he walked around he noticed that, unlike the Martial Courtyard of the cities that kept only brief descriptions of their body cultivation manuals and martial art techniques.
Both the Martial Wheel sect and the Beast Hunter sect kept the complete versions of the body cultivation methods and martial art techniques inside their libraries to allow free access. He chalked it up to the fact that martial art sects had less worry about their martial art techniques and body cultivation manuals being stolen by other martial art sects or the cities.
While this difference wasn't that important for other people since many people would only train in one body cultivation method and a few martial art techniques in their lives. Yoze on the other hand felt that this difference was much better since having this open and easy access allows him to quickly add variety to his fighting style.
As well as gives him more experience in a wide range of techniques and body cultivation so he could more easily adapt future techniques and body cultivation methods to suit his needs. As Yoze walked around he noticed that many of the martial art techniques were either solely for beasts or were techniques for both the beast and the hunter to fight together.
Even though it was strange he felt that it was logical since for most martial artists who trained in the Beast Human body cultivation method their beasts were stronger than them. So most martial artists preferred their beasts to do most of the fighting for them instead of the other way around.
The common thought was what would be the point of having a beast that was trained to battle for them if they did all the fighting. Of course, some martial artists didn't want their beasts to fight alone while they were standing on the sidelines.
So there were plenty of martial art techniques where both the beast and martial artist fought together but it was still a minority of the books available. For Yoze, neither of these two types of martial art techniques were very attractive to him.
For starters, martial art techniques that were customized solely for beasts weren't attractive since his beasts were most likely not talented enough to push these techniques to new levels so they could challenge stronger opponents. While the martial art techniques for both of their use also weren't very attractive since the speed at which he could train in these techniques would no longer be at his learning speed.
Since these martial art techniques were dependent on the slower learner which would always be his beasts. The thought of having to slow down his training speed almost made Yoze frown and almost ruined his good mood.
Since both the martial art techniques were solely for beasts and the ones where they both fought together were unappealing to him, Yoze decided to check what was I'm the higher floors. As he climbed the stairs to the fourth floor he noticed that, unlike the previous two floors, there was a giant door blocking the entrance to the third floor.
In addition, there were two peak first-rate martial artists acting out as guards on the third floor. The moment the two guards noticed Yoze walking towards the third floor their faces turned stern as their beasts growled at him.
"Stop, this floor is only for elders. You must turn around immediately." One of the guards said as he couldn't help but gulp in nervousness after seeing Yoze's stature.
"Oh, I apologize I just recently joined the sect so I didn't know that the third floor was only for elders. But if it is alright if I ask what is inside the third floor that ain't elders are allowed inside." Yoze smiled apologetically as he asked what was behind the door to the third floor.
Hearing that Yoze had recently joined their sect and had made a mistake made the two guard's shoulders relax.
Once they heard his question one of the guards said casually, "There really isn't anything of much use for us, just the sect's Blood Master realm body cultivation manuals. So unless any of us are about to cross the boundary and officially go through the elder ceremony on this floor we wouldn't be able to use anything inside."
"Oh, then I will be going to the third floor then." Hearing that he could easily grab the Beast Hunter sect's Blood Master Realm body cultivation methods, Yoze's eyes glimmered with colorful sparkles.
Before the two guards could understand what Yoze meant by they felt a sharp pain in their minds before their bodies collapsed. As their bodies hit the ground their eyes rolled behind their heads as they lost consciousness.
Once both the two guards' bodies hit the ground Yoze arrived at the door to the third floor and pushed it open. The door was heavy even though it looked like it was made out of wood and normally required two peak martial artists and their beasts working together to open.
But with Yoze's strength pushing open the door wasn't too hard and he was able to open it enough to let his body walk inside. Once he opened the door Yoze saw that there was a bald young man covered head to toe in blue tattoos of mythical animals.
Besides the young man a 16 feet tall white tiger whose eyes had a bored look to them. Coming from both of their bodies was an intense aura of wildness and brutality that was paired up well with the intense smell of blood radiating from the bodies.
The moment Yoze stepped inside both the bald young man and the 16 feet tall white tiger turned to look at who entered. Once they saw it was Yoze their eyes sharpened as the bald young man drew out his long sword and his beast pulled out its sharp claws that glinted like polished metal.
"Who are you?" The unfriendliness coming from the bald young man showed that if Yoze didn't answer this question right then he would attack without hesitation.
