Chapter 6
Skill Learning Cards
However, since I had to go to the Grand Elder's place right now, and then I would probably have to go to the clan's treasury to choose ninjutsu, it would probably take a lot of time, so I decided to use the card draw opportunity on the way.

[Obtained: Skill Learning Card (Green)]
[Skill Learning Card (Green) Description: With a complete training method and corresponding chakra attribute, this skill card can be used to quickly learn the skill within a 24-hour training period. Green quality is only effective for techniques of difficulty level C and below.]
Shipped!
A hint of joy immediately appeared in Uchiha Gen's eyes.
So far, in nine card draws, he has only gotten two green cards.
As the game's planner, he knew that the prize pool was tiered.
We should encourage players to spend money, but we should also give ordinary players some incentives so they have something to strive for.
Otherwise, if a game is full of whales (players who spend money on the game), and there are no ordinary players to showcase the difference and provide a leaderboard for whales, their sense of superiority and enjoyment will naturally decline. If they can get everything just by spending money, these whales will quickly abandon the game because of the loneliness and invincibility of the experts and move on to another game.
Therefore, a mechanism is needed that can extend the player's game cycle and allow skilled players among ordinary players to narrow the gap with whales.
In this game, the mechanism is that the quality of the gacha pool is linked to the player's level.
At Yuan's current level, there are only two quality cards in the card pool. Only when the level increases to a certain level will higher quality cards be unlocked, and the drop rate of some quality cards will also increase accordingly.
One type is the white card, which played a significant role during the Ninja Academy period. For example, there's the character card of Sakura Haruno, as well as the shuriken, kunai, and wire traps she used.
The other option is the green card you just drew.
The drop rate for this type of card is only 10% at the current stage. Although there will be a guaranteed character card on the tenth draw, according to the probability statistics, he can only get a maximum of two green cards by level ten.
But this time, the shipment actually went through, which made Uchiha Gen very excited.
He remembered that three years ago, he had also drawn a white skill learning card, which could be used on spells of difficulty level D and below.
He used it on his shuriken-wielding skills that time.
"You seem a little distracted, but also quite happy."
At the entrance to the clan's territory, in front of a gate resembling a torii gate, Uchiha Mikoto looked at Uchiha Gendo with her large, clear black and white eyes.
"Yes, after all, we're graduating today, and starting tomorrow, we'll be living a completely different life than we have in the past few years."
Uchiha Gen, without concealing his expression, addressed Uchiha Mikoto.
"Actually, life will only be harder after graduation than before. You have to train, become stronger, carry out missions, participate in wars, witness bloodshed and sacrifice, understand what is precious, and understand the meaning of loss for the sake of your family's honor and the village's orders."
The latter turned his head to look at the bustling street in the distance at midday and murmured softly.
As the granddaughter of the Uchiha clan's elder, she was also strictly disciplined from a young age, and could hardly relax for a single day.
"But aren't the ninjas doing all this for the sake of what's right now?"
Gen Uchiha smiled and gave Mikoto a sip of chicken soup.
"A prosperous clan, a peaceful village, children who can grow up strong—isn't that the meaning of a ninja's struggle?"
Mikoto Uchiha was slightly taken aback, then blinked and smiled faintly.
"You're right, Xiaoyuan, alright, we're here."
Mikoto Uchiha stopped and stood with Gen Uchiha in front of a spacious courtyard.
Push open the heavy door and step inside.
Several bonsai trees were placed on both sides of the brick-paved ground, and the Uchiha clan's red and white fan emblem was tattooed on the dark high wall.
Near the main house is a neat wooden corridor. To the left of the corridor is a wide brick and stone floor with training equipment such as dummies and targets, resembling a small private training ground.
"Gurgle."
The sound of the door being pulled open rang out.
"Grandpa, I brought Yuan back."
"Come in."
An aged voice echoed inside the room.
"come over."
Mikoto waved to Gen.
Gen Uchiha took off his shoes and followed Mikoto inside.
The living room, which also serves as the dining area, is located behind the entryway.
An elderly man dressed in a gray kimono knelt before a low table.
Wisps of smoke drifted out through the cracks in the lattice door, and a middle-aged woman wearing an apron peeked out from inside, holding a spatula in her hand.
"Oh, Mikoto's back. We have guests too. Would you like to stay for lunch?"
"Mom, this is Gen Uchiha, the top student in the Ninja Academy this year."
Uchiha Mikoto introduced herself to her mother.
"Is it Gen? Ah, is it Taki's child? I haven't seen you for years, you've grown so much. The last time I saw you, you were just a baby."
Mikoto's mother placed a bowl of fish soup on the table and sat down, setting out the bowls and chopsticks.
"You just came from the Ninja Academy, so you probably haven't had lunch yet. Let's sit down and have a meal together. Mika's cooking is pretty good."
Gen Uchiha nodded slightly to Gen Uchiha, gesturing for him to sit down.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Elder Xuan, Aunt Meixia, and Sister Meiqin. I won't stand on ceremony then."
After the meal, Uchiha Gen invited Mikoto and Gen to walk in the corridor outside to digest their food.
Uchiha Gen followed behind this powerful second-in-command of the clan and saw Mikoto give him a wink.
What does that look mean?
Uchiha Gen was slightly taken aback, and just then, the First Elder spoke slowly:
"Yuan, in the eyes of a young, up-and-coming ninja like yourself, what should the relationship between your clan and the village be like?"
Gen Uchiha immediately understood Mikoto's hint.
This must be part of the reason why Uchiha Gen summoned him.
He needed to know what this promising new generation genius thought about this issue.
Since Madara left, the relationship between the clan and the village has always been the main conflict facing the Uchiha clan.
After considering it for a while, Gen Uchiha tried his best to answer the elder's question from the perspective of the Uchiha clan.
"The Uchiha and Senju clans were the founders of Konoha, and the Uchiha clan, which is in charge of the police force, is also the most important and inseparable part of Konoha. The clan needs to stick together with the village in order to continue to ensure safety in the chaotic world and continue the glory of the number one clan in the ninja world. The village also needs the support of the Uchiha clan's strength in order to resist other powerful ninja villages."
