The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

Rishi shifted to the new room, and he earned many contribution points and resources. It included tokens to use on some cultivation grounds once or twice a week.

He also got to order quality pet food from the college, but most important for him were the permissions to take leave, participate in competitions, and access the library's first floor.

However, for the current him, these things were not that important right now; he was not going to learn any new techniques and focus mostly on utilizing the techniques he already knew.

What was most interesting was that he got offers to join multiple teams; he took a look at them all before deciding to decline them all.

"Not this time," He shook his head; he would not distract himself this time. His main priority was fighting alone and improving to perform better in PvP competitions.

In the previous fight, he learned a lot and noted that he could not fully use his abilities.

Against fast opponents, he struggled to react and land his hits. He was also not able to defend and dodge tricky attacks.

Akash was a tough opponent, but he was able to defeat him because he was already tired and out of mana.

He took a good beating in the match, but he could keep going due to his strong recovery and defense.

His high stamina and mana reserve gave him a great advantage.

"I should work on my chain ability; I need to create a way to use my mana, Frost Energy, and Shadow Energy Reserve to my advantage."

Till now, he had not worked much with his chain ability; he had only created two combinations: the first was Shadow Hand, and the second was Shadow Snake.

"I need something that puts pressure on my opponents and forces them to use more energy than me to defend. Shadow chains are good, but my opponents can easily counter them."

"I needed to consume way more energy in order to surprise Akash. Shadow hands are good for this, but I need to master how to summon them at a super fast pace."

He rubbed his chin, thinking about a way to achieve it. His eyes started shining golden as he closed them and started thinking.

Many ideas appeared in his mind, but he rejected them. It was then that he decided on the first condition.

"When I use the first form of my zone, I can summon chains way faster. So this will be the first requirement."

As he thought more about it, he searched for a similar example of some skill, and it was then that he remembered countless instances where magic circles were used to make things stronger.

"I can use magic circles. All I need now is to decide what that magic circle will be able to do before I start constructing a technique to help me summon countless Shadow Hands."

"I can first use ice enhancement to make them stronger. It always works, making it harder for opponents to destroy them."

"Zone will help me mark the opportunity, so I will not have to worry about simultaneously controlling so many of them. All I need to think about is basic movements that reduce the instance of them entangling with each other."

"I can improve on their design. The version I use is quite old."

He kept noting everything in a notebook so his mind could solely focus on thinking.

He was not getting any ideas, so he started thinking about his previous battles and got some inspiration. Then, he remembered that he had created a formation to strengthen his weapon and recover.

"Can I inscribe runes in all of the hands and make them stronger?" A radical idea suddenly came to his mind.

After thinking about it, a smile appeared on his face. "It may not be possible for others, but I can make it possible. Shadow Rune Style, Umbrakinesis, and my ability to modify shadow chains can do the magic."

He started laughing as he thought about it. "Why didn't I think about it before? I can create variations." 

"First will make chains stronger and tougher, while second would be the type that could be used to make magic formation."

After having a basic idea, he decided to start working. He didn't have anything to do, for he only needed to attend his classes; the rest of the time, he could do anything.

He decided to go underground again, not participating in anything. This was not an easy project.

Creating a technique was never easy. Even Rishi needed much time and planning before successfully creating a technique.

This time, it was hard because he was not good at creating magic circles; he will need to learn about them.

He had created them before, but this time, he needed to create multiple of them; this was no easy task for him.

He was not a mage, so he needed to gain more knowledge about them. His basic knowledge would not be enough to do this task.

So he decided to visit the library and read some books, but before that, he had to finish his daily training.

Now, he was training his senses and control of chakrams simultaneously by using his chakrams to attack himself and blocking them with his swords.

He had to activate 'Extreme Focus' in order to accomplish this. He appeared to be dancing with his swords.

'Swish', 'swish', 'swish'

'Clang', 'clang'

His swords whistled in the air as he performed his sword dance. The chakras were moving very fast, but he could still dodge and hit them.

The reason was his focus. While activating extreme focus, he consumed a lot of mental energy. Others might have felt mental fatigue, but he was different.

He had created his mental world very early, and due to it, he had a colossal amount of mental energy.

Unlike others, Rishi had a well-rounded physique. He had a huge amount of all his energy sources that made him fight for way longer than other fighters.

It was not challenging enough, so he decided to increase the speed of the chakras. He created three pillars around him.

He put them around him a little away so he gets some space. After that, he started using the Chakram moment that his teacher had created.

The Chakrmas bounced from the pillars and approached him; this gave him some trouble, but he tried to defend himself.

'Cut'

Countless cuts appeared on his body, as even for him, they were too fast and unpredictable, but with time, he adjusted to their pace.
