บท 160: Chapter 159 - Prices

Kaito looks at the prices of the Rank C skills, still somewhat stunned by the cost.

Although the discount is useful, he knows that raising the necessary money will be a challenge. He can still get Rank E skills for free, as he's a Rank D, but how would one-level skills help? He would only improve a little and it would be a waste of time.

The old man notices Kaito's worried expression and says empathetically:

"I understand that the cost of skills can be an obstacle, especially for students like you. However, remember that the investment in your martial skills is an investment in yourself. Over time, the rewards will be far greater than the initial cost."

Kaito nods, grateful for the old man's words of encouragement. However, that doesn't change anything, because he's not afraid to spend that money, and in fact he doesn't have any. What's more, he's still curious about the Rank A skills that Guozhi had mentioned earlier.
