Chapter 150: S-Class Top-Tier Combat Technique: Lei Shen Zhi! Psychic Mutation!

'Mingmie Lei Yun (SSS-class): Uses lightning-based psychic energy to summon a natural phenomenon, forming a cloud that continuously unleashes thunderbolts.

Note: Requires level 5 or higher, and a lightning-based psychic ability of A-rank or above to learn.

Lei Shen Jiang Shi: Judgment (SSS-class): Condenses psychic energy into the form of Lei Shen to judge all enemies on the ground.

When Lei Shen appears, its aura is overwhelmingly powerful, with a certain probability to knock enemies down, inflict periodic damage on surrounding foes, and summon judgment lightning to strike them.

Note: Requires level 6 or higher, and a lightning-based psychic ability of S-rank or above to learn.

'......'

Just as in the Demon University library, the first few entries on Eva's projection were all SSS-class combat techniques.

But there were far more combat techniques here than in the Demon University library.

'Indeed, no wonder this is the combat technique library of the three universities...'

Merely reading the brief descriptions of these techniques made Xu Jingming's eyes gleam.

'Pity—S-rank and SSS-class techniques demand extremely high levels; I can't learn them yet.'

Shaking his head, Xu Jingming skimmed briefly through these high-level techniques, then said directly:

'Eva, filter out all lightning-based S-rank combat techniques.'

'Understood!'

The holographic projection flickered and instantly switched to only S-rank lightning-based combat techniques.

The learning requirements for these newly appeared S-rank techniques were much lower.

The lowest, like 'Heavenly Thunder Art' and 'Nether Hell Thunder Armor,' could be learned at level two.

There were also S-rank top-tier techniques requiring level three, with even greater power!

Xu Jingming had already reached level three, so he naturally chose an S-rank top-tier technique.

Thus,

Xu Jingming focused intently on reading the brief descriptions of each S-rank technique.

For a time, the entire temporary office fell silent.

Soon, half an hour passed.

Vice Principal Ling Shuang showed no impatience, leaning lightly against her chair, eyes closed, resting.

'Principal, I've made my choice.'

Xu Jingming's voice made Ling Shuang open her eyes.

'Oh? Which technique did you choose?'

Ling Shuang, behind the desk, leaned forward slightly, curious.

'This S-rank technique: Lei Shen Zhi.'

Xu Jingming pointed to a technique on the holographic projection.

Ling Shuang's phoenix-like eyes followed his finger:

'Lei Shen Zhi (S-class): Condenses lightning-based psychic energy into a finger resembling Lei Shen, striking enemies with high lightning damage.

Note: Requires level 3 or higher, and an A-rank or above lightning-based psychic ability to learn.'

'An S-rank technique requiring level 3 or higher?'

Ling Shuang's delicate eyebrows lifted slightly. 'This is from Jingda's S-rank top-tier techniques. Jingda only provides the technique scrolls—not much teaching support.

If you choose this one, your learning period may be very long.'

'It's fine.' Xu Jingming smiled confidently.

After killing five Divine Blood Envoys, including Dong Sheng, his system panel gained another 6000 psychic points.

These psychic points should be more than enough to learn one S-rank top-tier technique.

'That's true—you already master several S-rank techniques.'

Ling Shuang suddenly remembered that Xu Jingming not only advanced in level rapidly, but also possessed extraordinary comprehension.

For ordinary psychics, S-rank techniques required immense time and effort to learn.

For Xu Jingming, it seemed he needed little effort at all to master them...

Thinking of this, Ling Shuang suddenly realized a problem.

Was Xu Jingming too monstrous?

His extremely rapid level advancement, extraordinary comprehension, and rare psychic mutation.

Any one of these traits, in another psychic, would be enough to forge a legendary prodigy!

Yet now, they were all concentrated in a single person...

Ling Shuang stared fixedly at Xu Jingming, her beautiful eyes faintly shimmering with unusual light.

If Xu Jingming could grow successfully, humanity would surely gain another legendary powerhouse!

'Principal Ling...?'

Admittedly, Ling Shuang—with her exquisitely beautiful face, slender figure, and tear-shaped mole at the corner of her eye—was undoubtedly a classical beauty.

But being stared at so long, even Xu Jingming felt uneasy, and he ventured a tentative voice.

'Hmm, I was thinking of something else.'

Ling Shuang finally looked away, clearing her throat, 'Also, I'll inform Qingjing Psychic University of the technique you requested. Once the original scroll arrives at the school, I'll notify you.

That's enough—you're tired. Go rest now.'

'Thank you, Principal.'

Xu Jingming bowed politely, then turned to leave.

When Xu Jingming stepped out of the supply base building, Song Qiuyun's slender figure was already waiting nearby.

When Xu Jingming walked out of the supply base building, Song Qiuyun's slender figure was already waiting nearby.

She stood beneath the building's eaves, head bowed, lost in thought.

"Let's go, back to the dorm."

When Xu Jingming walked up to her.

Song Qiuyun snapped out of it, nodding softly with a faint blush on her small face.

She obediently followed beside Xu Jingming as they left together.

For Xu Jingming, the Tianming Sect's ambush had been alarming but ultimately harmless.

What he cared about most was his evolved SS-rank ability: Doushen Shenlei.

So, after a brief rest upon returning to the dorm, Xu Jingming returned to the training hall.

At this time, most of the shaken freshmen were either resting in their dorms.

Or taking advantage of this final day to wander the city and relax.

As for Song Qiuyun, she had gone to the supply base's main building to find her aunt.

Thus, compared to before, the number of freshmen in the entire training hall had dropped by nearly half.

Yet some freshmen with strong wills still trained diligently, and the hall remained noisy with voices.

"Big Brother Ming!"

"Good morning, Big Brother Ming!"

As Xu Jingming walked in, many greeted him warmly.

"By the way, Big Brother Ming's lightning was truly terrifying—it actually injured Dong Sheng, a peak fourth-rank."

"Who can deny it? Without Big Brother Ming, we might not have survived."

Even after Xu Jingming entered the private training room, the freshmen in the public area continued to marvel.

Because they were too far away, they didn't know Xu Jingming had instantly killed Dong Sheng.

But they were certain that without Xu Jingming,

the vice principal of Magic University could never have broken through the spatial lockdown so quickly to save so many freshmen.

One could say that after this Tianming Sect incident, the vast majority of freshmen felt some gratitude toward Xu Jingming.

"Shenlan, open my status panel."

Inside the private training room, Xu Jingming sat cross-legged on the floor.

A pale blue virtual panel appeared in his mind:

【Name】: Xu Jingming

【Level】: Third-Rank Lower Tier

【Ability】: Doushen Shenlei (SS)

【Physique】: 2038 Qi (+)

【Spirit】: 1522 He (+)

【Skills】: Gunplay (Master), Tianlei Shu (Beginner+), Mingyu Mingyu Lei Kai (Beginner+), Fist Technique (Intermediate+), Lei Mao (Advanced+), Lianhuan Lianhuan Lei Qiang (Intermediate+), Lei Shan (Advanced+), Lei Yu (Intermediate+), Shandian Jifeng Po (Master+)

【Body Cultivation】: Lei Tian Bu Mie Shen (Fourth Stage)

【Ability Points】: 6359

"Fifty thousand ability points transformed my S-rank Zixiao Shenlei into the SS-rank Doushen Shenlei."

Xu Jingming raised his right hand and opened his palm.

Crackling~~~

Amidst the sound of crackling lightning, the training room blazed bright as golden lightning spread from his hand.

About ten centimeters above his palm, it coalesced into a golden lightning sphere the size of a basketball.

Zizzing~~

Jagged arcs of electricity danced across the sphere's surface.

The dazzling, sunlike lightning sphere radiated an unstable, violent, dangerous aura, as if it might explode at any moment.

"Compared to Zixiao Shenlei, Doushen Shenlei is far harder to control."

Xu Jingming's clear, resolute eyes fixed intently on the lightning sphere.

Had it been Zixiao Shenlei, the sphere formed would never have been this unstable.

Of course, the power of this sphere was beyond anything Zixiao Shenlei could match.

"My physique and spirit stats haven't changed on the system panel.

But with the boost from SS-rank Doushen Shenlei, I'm now far stronger than before."

Xu Jingming applied slight pressure with his right hand, and the terrifying golden lightning sphere vanished soundlessly, crushed.

Ability evolution had undoubtedly further enhanced his potential.

More importantly, he now confirmed that abilities could be upgraded via the Shenlan system.

That meant one day in the future, his SS-rank ability could evolve again—into its ultimate form: SSS-rank!

"SSS-rank lightning ability… I look forward to that day…"

A look of longing softened Xu Jingming's resolute face.
