Although my stats did not increase as much as I desired, in the end, I could be said to be satisfied, especially since I was training so many more Jutsus at the same time. I did mainly focus on body flicker as it was an essential for dangerous situations; however, that technique seemed much more difficult to train on than expected. It took me a long time before I figured out that it was easier to train body flicker after I raised my level further in my body substitution technique. I wasn't really sure how they were correlated, if any at all, but in the end, the final verdict was that training was extremely slow it.
