That’s Xu Jingming?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It really is him! He actually came for virtual training?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big news!

What do I need to do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Virtual training requires initial combat skill data collection. Since it’s your first time, let me guide you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind the desk, a female attendant stood up enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, for first-time visitors, the front desk only needed to answer simple questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Xu Jingming—handsome, with an extraordinary aura—she was happy to offer deeper guidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you.” Xu Jingming nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d never been here before and truly didn’t know how to proceed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the stares and murmurs of onlookers, Xu Jingming followed the attendant out of the lobby into the side hall on the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The side hall was slightly smaller than the lobby and held no virtual pods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, it contained dozens of massive black machines, over five meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The virtual space will simulate a body matching your rank and physical strength.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But your unique abilities and mastered combat techniques must be recorded in advance using these machines.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t need to fully unleash them—just demonstrate enough for the machine to confirm you can perform them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the attendant’s explanation, Xu Jingming finally understood the purpose of the black machines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This machine is free. Just swipe your student ID to use it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming pulled out his student ID from his space ring and swiped it on the machine’s sensor. A prompt sounded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Welcome, S-Class authorized student Xu Jingming, using Data Collection Device.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“S-Class student?” The attendant froze beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d worked here two or three years—this was her first S-Class student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming paid no mind to her surprise and stepped into the machine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hss—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy door sealed shut, blocking all view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Respected S-Class student, please activate your unique ability and demonstrate your mastered combat techniques.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the machine’s instruction, Xu Jingming unleashed his Divine Thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden lightning coiled around his body; he gripped a spear and demonstrated various S-Class and basic combat techniques, including Thunder God’s Finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>none of these techniques were fully unleashed—otherwise the entire Training Building would’ve been destroyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the five-meter-tall machine clearly accounted for users with giantization abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming’s two-meter-two height in Thunder Form felt no crowding inside the machine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>after over ten minutes, Xu Jingming completed all demonstrations and stepped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attendant then led him back to the lobby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought he could now pick any pod at random.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the attendant led him straight to the largest virtual pod in the center of the lobby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is...?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming stared at the pod before him—its design far more advanced than the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the only top-tier virtual pod in the Training Building. It offers superior realism and is reserved exclusively for S-Class students,” the attendant said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, this was her first time escorting someone to use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“S-Class only? Magic University really enforces hierarchy strictly—every privilege differs. But... I like it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the envious gazes of onlookers, Xu Jingming smiled faintly and lay down inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whsh—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door sealed. His vision went black, then faint white luminescence glowed within the pod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Scanning physical data...】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Scan complete. Detecting neural connections...】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Detection complete. Entering virtual space...】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a series of prompts, Xu Jingming’s consciousness blurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he awoke again, he stood on an endless silver plain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver ground stretched infinitely; besides him, only one door remained—a massive gate fifty meters wide and over ten meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gate had a classical design, entirely black, radiating heavy energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside it stood a colossal stone pillar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pillar bore countless engraved names.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So this is the combat power leaderboard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming scanned the pillar and quickly found his name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rank 4123: Xu Jingming, Combat Power: 0\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very top of the pillar, towering above all others, was another name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rank 1: Kong Shi, combat power: !\u003C\u002Fp>",1172,"2026-06-21T05:34:00.634Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","a4ca95ab4f29201b98ff43db50c21a5e760432889727137b451522ca1c33a08a","global-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-chapter-240","global-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-chapter-238",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-cover.jpg"]
