I Have Infinite Skill Points

"Director Wang, if there's nothing else, I'm heading back. I've got plans to hang out with some friends tonight and relax."

"Wait! Come with me to see the Bureau Chief."

"The Bureau Chief is looking for me?" Wang Lan asked, a hint of nervousness in his voice.

Wang Qianfeng looked at Wang Lan as if he were looking at a fool. "What are you thinking? You're going to report to the Bureau Chief about the great achievement you've made again."

"Couldn't you report it yourself?"

"It's good for you to show your face in front of the Chief more often."

Wang Lan wasn't truly foolish, and he got the point immediately. When navigating bureaucracy, the most important thing was to ensure your superiors kept you in mind—to be the first to come to their thoughts in favorable situations. To achieve that, you had to make your presence felt often.

Following Wang Qianfeng to the Bureau Chief's office, Wang Qianfeng straightened his collar before knocking on the door.

"Intelligence Division, Wang Qianfeng, reporting an issue."

"Ah, Feng, come in."

Lu Zhao, wearing his reading glasses, was vigorously writing at his massive desk. The desk, as large as a ping-pong table, was crammed full of various documents.

Lu Zhao was actually quite old, with his fully white crew cut and a skinny but spirited frame.

Looking up and seeing Wang Qianfeng followed by Wang Lan, his face broke into a smile. "Don't tell me this lucky mascot of yours has done another great service?"

Lucky mascot? Surely, he doesn't mean me? Wang Lan thought, his expression unchanging as he slightly lowered his head, grumbling inwardly.

"The Chief is indeed wise." Saying so, Wang Qianfeng placed the blue potion on Lu Zhao's desk. "This is the Demonic Transformation Potion seized by Wang Lan."

Lu Zhao's expression briefly froze, not much different from Wang Qianfeng's initial reaction, but his composure was much better.

"What's going on? Where did it come from?"

"Wang Lan, come here and report to the Chief."

"Yes!" Wang Lan stood at attention. "Reporting to the Chief, this subordinate found these in the intermediate trial ground of Taoyuan District, following a conflict with a group of Star Martial Warriors. They were seized from their possession. This subordinate also personally witnessed one of the Star Martial Warriors injecting themselves with this potion, after which they became a Magical Martial Artist."

Then, Wang Lan repeated his encounter in the trial grounds.

After everything had been said, Lu Zhao slowly stood up and approached Wang Lan, looking him up and down. After a while, he suddenly pointed at Wang Lan and began to laugh with Wang Qianfeng.

"Ah, Feng... This guy is our koi fish, and you are our discerning eye. I'm impressed by this kid's luck. If he were to find several gold rings just by tying his shoelaces on a walk, I wouldn't be surprised."

"Chief, luck is just a small part of it. Even if luck comes, it still requires the eyes to discern it. This time, Wang Lan was the first to discover the Demonic Transformation Potion and successfully disarmed the enemy. His contribution is indispensable."

"Hahaha... You and your coddling of the young! You think I'll let this kid be shortchanged? Alright, regarding those Star Martial Warriors, their identities, and where the Demonic Transformation Potion came from, you're responsible for investigating thoroughly."

"Yes! I will get to the bottom of this and leave no stone unturned."

"Good. Keep the potion here; I will have the relevant experts analyze it. You two may leave now."

Leaving Lu Zhao's office with Wang Qianfeng, Wang Lan felt relieved.

Wang Qianfeng didn't say anything, nor did Wang Lan ask. He drove away from the Tianjian Bureau, and Wang Lan went home for a comfortable bath. After changing his clothes, it was almost time to head out.

The Eastern Heaven Gate was right outside his doorstep. Wang Lan walked there. He had just arrived at the square when he saw three luxury cars slowly pulling into the roadside parking spots.

Four people got out of the cars, and the sight of Xie Sisi brightened Wang Lan's eyes immediately.

Xie Sisi, dressed up with care, was as stunning as a TV star, especially with her tall frame and a pair of long, straight legs. Those legs captured all of Wang Lan's attention.

The moment their Simu occurred, Wang Lan quickly looked away and went up to greet the group.

If one were to ask who was more beautiful, Xie Sisi or Jiang Xinyu, it would naturally be Jiang Xinyu. With her good genes and careful nurturing from a young age, both her appearance and temperament were impeccable.

Perhaps because Wang Lan was too familiar with her, he didn't really feel anything. But if he took a closer look, he nearly couldn't resist Jiang Xinyu's charm.

Xie Sisi and Wang Lan had not been acquainted for long, which made her seem even more attractive to him.

Even though Xie Sisi was brought home by Jiang Xinyu, Wang Lan was sure that the clothes on Xie Sisi were definitely not Jiang Xinyu's. The size was clearly off.

"I'm telling you, you guys are amazing. At this hour, you still managed to get a spot on the ground?" Wang Lan, knowing he'd been caught stealing glances at Xie Sisi, quickly changed the subject.

"Pfft, it's not a big deal! Just find some cars with phone numbers, make a call, and with five thousand bucks, you get a parking spot in minutes," Xu Xiangwen laughed, making light of it.

The Eastern Heaven Gate was a place they frequented for dining, and they knew exactly where to find good food and service. After a hearty meal and singing karaoke, the five of them partied until late before going their separate ways.

With the gathering over, it was a perfect end to the ordeal at the trial ground.

Lying in bed, Wang Lan suddenly felt a sense of emptiness, as if he had been busy for a long time and suddenly found himself at a loose end, not knowing what to do.

He had plenty of skill points in the system, but due to level restrictions, there was nowhere to use them.

Wang Lan wasn't the type to wait around. The surplus skill points needed to be converted into strength as soon as possible. Thus, the only option was to purchase Star Martial Skills.

Star Martial Skills were only sold at the Star Martial Hall, and one had to go there to purchase them, but browsing what was available could be done from home.

Thinking of it, he promptly sat up and switched on his computer.

After quickly completing identity verification, he entered the main page of the Star Martial Hall. He clicked to enter the Star Martial Skill sales center…

Damn it, what is this trash?

Last time Jiang Xinyu was at the Star Martial Hall, she had packed up three A-grade Star Martial Skills. This time, however, when Wang Lan scanned through, there wasn't a single A-grade Star Martial Skill to be found. There were only five or six B-grade ones at most. Almost all the Star Martial Skills were either C or D-grade.

"The Star Martial Hall is getting worse and worse. I'm not even expecting any S-grade Star Martial Skills anymore, but at least give me some A-grade options," Wang Lan muttered to himself while searching.

He didn't know the cost of living until he took charge; he started with a platinum-grade Phoenix form and got two A-grade Star Martial Skills right at the beginning. But for an ordinary Star Martial Warrior, what even was an A-grade Star Martial Skill? Heard of it, never seen it, they'd say.

B-grade Star Martial Skills were peerless secret tomes; C-grade were treasures. If there was a C-grade Star Martial Skill that fit, you bit the bullet and bought it. Don't underestimate these lower-level Star Martial Skills—they can save your life at critical moments.

After refreshing several times and still not finding anything satisfactory, Wang Lan felt utterly disappointed.

Even if these skill points rot, I won't waste them on these C-grade or B-grade ones.

Just as he was about to close the page, a pop-up window appeared.

"Haven't found a Star Martial Skill to your liking? Then try the Wishlist Registration. Register your desired Star Martial Skill according to the prompts. When a suitable Star Martial Skill is available in the library, a notification will be sent. The Star Martial Hall wishes every Star Martial Warrior can possess a satisfactory Star Martial Skill."

A fine promise, that every Star Martial Warrior can possess a satisfactory Star Martial Skill, Wang Lan thought. But in reality, most powerful Star Martial Skills are controlled by the Star Martial families. Or you must enroll in a Star Martial Academy of the corresponding grade to have access to them.

Moreover, good Star Martial Skills are so expensive that ordinary people can only kneel before the price and sigh with longing.

But Wang Lan still chose to register.

Wang Lan had already done a data analysis on his shortcomings. His position was that of a close-combat support. Although he was thriving on this path, it wasn't enough for Wang Lan. As a support, he was already tired of watching cooldowns.

What type of Star Martial Skill do you hope for?

He, of course, chose offense. As a support who's better at healing myself than others, why would I need defense? I'll take the hits when I can, and if I can't, I'll just heal myself and keep going.

What type of attack do you hope for?

It must be long-range, he decided. For close-quarters combat, I have Star Cloud Sword Dance for evasion and Flame Sword for damage output. Star Cloud Sword Dance also offers confusion, positioning, control, and other functions. I'm not lacking in close-combat options.

Do you hope your Star Martial Skill is an attribute change or a form change?

Either is fine, he thought. If it's an attribute change, then naturally, it would be fire-type.

What grade do you wish your Star Martial Skill to be?

Wang Lan really wanted to select S-grade, but there was no S-grade option. Could it be that the Star Martial Hall itself believes S-grade Star Martial Skills are too unlikely to appear in their offerings, so they simply removed the choice?

So the S-grade section in the Star Martial Skill library is a redundant design? Then why put it there in the first place?

Registration complete, submitted to the database. He closed the computer and continued to lie in bed, browsing Tianjian Bureau intel, keeping an eye on the condition of his brothers.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

Wang Qianfeng pushed open the door to Lu Zhao's office.

"Director! The investigation results are out, and they are far from Ruyi."

"What's the matter? A few Star Martial Warriors' identities shouldn't pose a challenge to you, the intelligence chief, right?"

"They're not ordinary Star Martial Warriors. No, they are Star Martial Warriors without identities. The ones who entered the trial ground had forged identities. When we followed the leads from their Star Martial Badges, we found the original owners were still pioneering in a Different Dimensional Space. Not to mention the ones Wang Lan killed, even if they hadn't been killed, they couldn't possibly appear in two places at the same time."

"Hmm? The Star Martial Badge contains verification information. The central system would raise an alarm if two people with the same identity appeared in different places."

"Indeed, but... the Star Martial Warrior monitoring database has been tampered with. The person who tampered with it died in a car accident two years ago, and it's too long gone to trace back now."

"So you're saying that these people were selected and this plan was set in motion two years ago?"

"It appears so."

"What about face recognition?"

"Here's where it gets even trickier. The people in the intermediate trial grounds, their appearances matched those on the Star Martial Badges exactly. It's as if they are... clones of those Star Martial Warriors. But I've confirmed they're absolutely not clones. Their Star Martial Skills, behavioral habits, and even the DNA we've retrieved are all different. The DNA database has only begun to be properly established in the past decade, and there's still a large number of Star Martial Warriors not yet registered. These sixteen individuals are like people who simply don't exist; not a trace of them can be found."

Lu Zhao's brow furrowed. He leaned back in his chair and pondered for a moment. This is more complicated than I imagined.

"But no matter how complicated, we will investigate thoroughly. It will just... take time."

"Currently, the Demon Clan has not made any substantial moves. Especially after we learned about their Ant Hill Plan, they should lie low for a while. Take your time with the search, but make sure to be thorough!"

"Understood!"
