Chapter 208: It Was the Mo University S-Rank! The Stunning Wu Chuang!
Wu Chuang entered the thunderstorm zone at seven in the morning, at his sixth-rank mid-level sprinting speed.
It was naturally impossible for him to enter the core zone only at twelve, five hours later.
The reason he moved so slowly was precisely because he had searched nearly the entire outer and middle zones for Xu Jingming.
He found nothing, so he decided to enter the core zone first.
He planned to kill the thunder beast he wanted, then search carefully afterward.
He had even prepared himself for the possibility that Xu Jingming was already dead.
But he never expected to meet Xu Jingming under such circumstances.
"Level breakthrough—from mid-level third rank to upper-level third rank—but isn't this lightning range excessively large?"
Wu Chuang gazed at Xu Jingming within the sea of lightning, unable to suppress a silent shock.
You know,
Lei Yaoyang, a graduate of the elite training camp, was already at peak third rank, yet his lightning range was only thirty meters.
Xu Jingming's range was twice as long as Lei Yaoyang's!
"And judging by this, he seems to intend to confront that Storm Lei Xiong?"
Wu Chuang, seeing through Xu Jingming's intent, couldn't help but murmur in amazement.
How bold!
A third-rank upper-level cultivator challenging a fourth-rank upper-level beast—the very apex of fourth-rank ferocious beasts—the Storm Lei Xiong!
"Truly, a young bull unafraid of tigers—Jiang's junior brother has admirable courage."
Seeing Xu Jingming not only unharmed but daring to challenge the Storm Lei Xiong,
Wu Chuang exhaled in relief—and still did not step forward to stop him.
On one hand, he knew top-tier university students usually had their own trump cards.
Xu Jingming's boldness indicated he had confidence in his own strength.
On the other hand, having been a trainer for six or seven years, he deeply understood that for a genius like Xu Jingming,
only by letting him suffer a setback could he recognize his own shortcomings.
After all, with him—a sixth-rank ability user—here, the Storm Lei Xiong could never kill Xu Jingming.
"A third-rank peak's actual combat power? Looks like I misjudged him—I underestimated Jiang's junior brother." Wu Chuang shook his head.
Merely from this aura, his sharp eyes told him Xu Jingming's true combat power was certainly above fourth rank!
He was a super-genius like Lei Yaoyang!
"Aoo—"
In the open field, the Storm Lei Xiong had also noticed Xu Jingming's presence.
As a fourth-rank upper-level beast, its intellect was comparable to that of a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old youth.
Seeing a human dare intrude into its territory, it let out a furious roar!
This was an insult! A blatant provocation!
The Storm Lei Xiong's eyes blazed with rage as it slammed its right foot hard onto the ground!
Boom!
As the ground cracked into a deep pit,
the lightning swirling around its body surged like thick, writhing pythons toward Xu Jingming!
Crackling—
Blue-white lightning and golden lightning collided, devouring and clashing against each other.
Yet, Xu Jingming's golden lightning proved superior!
Hm?
On the Storm Lei Xiong's massive bear face, a human-like expression of confusion appeared—it clearly hadn't expected its lightning to fail!
"What?! It actually blocked it?! And Xu Jingming's lightning is even stronger?!"
Far away, Wu Chuang's eyes widened in utter disbelief.
This was a fourth-rank upper-level ferocious beast—fully one major rank above Xu Jingming!
Its lightning should have crushed him outright—yet instead, it was being devoured!
"Something's wrong—very wrong! Xu Jingming's ability is too powerful!"
Wu Chuang's expression turned serious.
Unlike Lei Yaoyang, his vast experience allowed him to make a swift and certain judgment:
"This is definitely not A-rank—it's higher: S-rank, possibly even SS-rank lightning ability!"
Have I stumbled upon a hidden legendary genius?
Thinking this, Wu Chuang's gaze grew fiery—but he felt something was off.
Xu Jingming was Jiang Luo's junior brother, and he came from Mo University.
Although Wu Chuang, like Lei Yaoyang and the others, had never taken the Wu Ke Gaokao and had attended an ability university,
he knew that in top-tier universities, geniuses could not be hidden!
Xu Jingming should have been famous at Mo University from the start.
"Xu Jingming… Mo University's Xu Jingming… I feel like I've seen this name somewhere before…"
Wu Chuang frowned, then suddenly slapped his forehead:
"I remember! Xu Jingming is the lightning ability S-rank awakenee who enrolled at Mo University last year!"
As a trainer for Lei Ting Wu Guan, he didn't often check online news—only glanced at it casually when idle.
The news about Xu Jingming was from last year.
Most people might not have remembered at all.
But as a sixth-rank ability user, his memory had reached the level of perfect recall.
Now, with a moment's thought, he recalled Xu Jingming's identity.
"No wonder he's so strong—he's an S-class from Devil University. But this rank is just ridiculous..."
Wu Chuang's expression turned strange; he didn't know what to say anymore.
It's no wonder he didn't think of it right away—who the hell could've imagined a freshman who just enrolled last year?
And now he's already top-tier third-rank?
"Looks like my lightning still has the edge."
Xu Jingming, wrapped in golden lightning, grinned.
Then golden lightning flashed, and he vanished from his spot.
When he reappeared, he was already before the Storm Lei Xiong!
Lightning Flash!
Xu Jingming's A-rank lightning technique, in its normal form, could instantly dash over forty meters.
But in its enhanced Lei Ji state, the dash distance soared to a terrifying seventy meters!
Whoo—
Faced with Xu Jingming's sudden appearance, the Storm Lei Xiong showed no hesitation.
Like swatting a fly, a massive palm wreathed in lightning swept straight toward him.
The palm was like a giant fan, brimming with oppressive force—but Xu Jingming showed not the slightest fear:
"Come on!"
His dragon-like vertical pupils blazed with fierce battle intent; he didn't even draw his spear, just punched straight forward!
Boom!
His right fist, utterly disproportionate, slammed into the giant palm.
A tremendous shockwave erupted from the impact, shattering dead leaves on the ground.
Yet neither Xu Jingming nor the Storm Lei Xiong took a single step back!
"What the hell?!"
Wu Chuang's eyes widened; as a trainer at Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym, he hadn't cursed in years.
But this scene made him blurt it out without thinking.
You know,
For ferocious beasts, lightning was secondary—their physical bodies were the real nightmare!
Wu Chuang had assumed Xu Jingming would use his lightning ability to wear down the Storm Lei Xiong, to maneuver and stall.
But he never expected Xu Jingming to be this bold—he chose direct confrontation!
Most unbelievable of all, Xu Jingming hadn't been crushed by the slap—he'd won the clash!
"What kind of human is this?! He's practically a humanoid ferocious beast!"
Wu Chuang murmured, then pulled out his personal camera from his space ring and began recording:
"Those brats in the Elite Training Camp think so highly of themselves, always believing their top-tier school outshines others.
I'll show them what a true genius from a top-tier university looks like!"
As a trainer, he often recorded his own battles to use as teaching material for his students.
That's why he carried the camera with him.
At this moment, he keenly sensed that Xu Jingming's next battle would be absolutely spectacular...
