Chapter 40: Five Colleges! Lei Ting Spear Yang Zhentian!

~7 min read 1,210 words

Ten minutes later, Xu Jingming saw off Zhang Zhaoyang and sat alone, relaxed, on the living room sofa.

"Good thing I had this admissions teacher to guide me—otherwise, I really wouldn't have known how many things to watch out for at the Shanghai Psychic University."

Xu Jingming felt a sense of relief.

Of course, Zhang Zhaoyang also said these details could be found in the "New Student Essentials" section of the school's official forum.

But it wasn't nearly as detailed as what he'd explained.

Especially the electric-type mentor he mentioned—the one most suited to him.

Thinking of this, Xu Jingming spoke:

"Eva, search for information on Mentor Yang Zhentian."

"Understood."

The virtual orb in midair flickered faintly, then projected all information related to Yang Zhentian.

'Yang Zhentian, age 52, Dean of the Weaponry College, Shanghai Psychic University, seventh-rank upper-tier psychic.'

Possesses an A-rank electric-type psychic ability: Wind-Fire True Thunder; excels in fist techniques, greatsword, long spear, longsword, and various other weapons.

Among these, he is most proficient with the long spear, earning him the nickname Lei Ting Spear.

Once battled an eighth-rank ferocious beast, the Tremor Demon Python, for three days and three nights in the Wildlands, ultimately slaying it alone...'

During his earlier conversation with Zhang Zhaoyang, Xu Jingming had already learned:

The Shanghai Psychic University consists of five colleges.

They are the Element College, Weaponry College, Tactics College, Support College, and Logistics College.

Each college has distinct teaching methods and focus areas.

The Element College, as the name suggests, primarily enrolls students with elemental psychic abilities.

Naturally, electric-type abilities under the natural category are also within its recruitment scope.

The Element College emphasizes cultivating students' psychic abilities, aiming to maximize the power of elemental psychics!

The Weaponry College specializes in training close-combat fighters who rely primarily on their weapons as offensive tools.

They excel at integrating psychic abilities with weaponry.

Every graduate of the Weaponry College is unquestionably a master of weapons!

The Tactics College primarily recruits mental-type psychics, training them in command and battlefield strategy.

Of course,

this does not mean Tactics College students are weak.

On the contrary, Tactics College students who push their mental-type psychic abilities to their limits.

A single glance can shatter an enemy's mind.

Reduce them to an idiot and end the battle instantly.

The Support College enrolls those with support-type psychic abilities; after activating their power,

these students provide powerful buffs to themselves and teammates, becoming indispensable allies on the battlefield.

As for the final Logistics College, most students possess special-type psychic abilities.

They primarily handle logistical production tasks.

From the five-college structure of the Shanghai Psychic University, it is clearly evident:

It is training talent for the Ferocious Beast War!

Those qualified to serve as college deans are even stronger among the strong!

Take this Weaponry College dean, Yang Zhentian—he slew an eighth-rank ferocious beast alone with seventh-rank upper-tier power.

This is an extremely terrifying achievement!

After all, high-rank psychics are not like low-rank ones, where power differences between ranks are minor.

At high ranks, power gaps between each sub-tier undergo earth-shattering changes!

The difference between full ranks is even more staggering!

High-rank psychics like Yang Zhentian, capable of fighting across ranks, are exceedingly rare throughout all of Daya!

"Of course—only someone with sufficient strength could become Weaponry College dean."

Xu Jingming nodded slightly.

A-rank electric-type psychic ability, seventh-rank upper-tier power.

Proficient with the long spear, bearing the nickname Lei Ting Spear.

From this entire profile, Yang Zhentian is indeed the most suitable mentor for his current situation.

"Our school has four electric-type mentors—let me check the other three."

Xu Jingming had Eva retrieve information on the remaining three electric-type mentors.

All three possessed A-rank abilities, with the lowest being sixth-rank upper-tier.

But two of them were Element College mentors.

Meaning, these two mentors do not use weapons—only refine their psychic abilities.

In simpler terms, they're like ranged lightning mages in RPG online games who only cast spells.

The last one, though also a Weaponry College mentor,

had only seventh-rank lower-tier power and primarily used the longsword, not the long spear.

Compared to Yang Zhentian, the Lei Ting Spear, this mentor was clearly inferior.

"Judging by this, Dean Yang Zhentian of the Weaponry College is undoubtedly my best choice for a master."

"After I tidy up the room and have lunch, I'll go pay him a visit and try to become his disciple."

Xu Jingming instructed Eva to shut down the projection and return to standby mode.

Then he picked up his suitcase and walked up the stairs to the second floor.

The villa had two levels, and he preferred the second floor for its open view and outdoor balcony.

Since his other roommate hadn't arrived yet, he would move in first.

On the way up, Xu Jingming finally noticed the villa's only flaw.

That was the lack of an elevator, and the use of a wooden handrail staircase.

But with his current blood qi of 181 points, carrying a 20-kilogram suitcase up the stairs was effortless.

On the second floor, Xu Jingming quickly found the bedroom.

The bedroom was large, about fifty square meters, with a bed in the center measuring two point three meters long and two meters wide.

The bed already had brand-new bedding laid out.

Opposite the bed was a desk, on which sat a computer.

Beside the desk was a window.

Through the window, he could see the flat road below.

Just now, he and Zhang Zhaoyang had walked over from there.

"Everything in this bedroom is brand new—I should've brought less stuff."

Xu Jingming's suitcase contained many items.

Not only clothes to change into, but also toothpaste, toothbrushes, and other broken items.

By the time everything was put away and tidied up, half an hour had passed.

"Phew, better eat quickly, then go find Teacher Yang Zhentian."

Xu Jingming checked the time on his phone—it was 1:30 p. m., exactly lunchtime.

But unlike ordinary universities,

Mudan University had four cafeterias, each offering food 24 hours a day.

Even if you missed meal times, it was no problem.

Xu Jingming took his student ID and the villa key and left the villa.

When he came over earlier, he had been chatting with Zhang Zhaoyang and hadn't paid attention to his surroundings.

So this time, he deliberately slowed his pace and observed the scenery around him.

As a top-tier university, Mudan Institute of Supernatural Abilities had an impeccable campus environment.

On both sides of the roads were lush green lawns, blooming with flowers of all colors.

The air carried a faint floral fragrance.

Along the way, benches and pavilions for resting were visible everywhere.

This time of year was during Mudan Institute of Supernatural Abilities' summer break.

Yet,

there were still many students on campus.

Some walked side by side, others walked alone.

And all these students had strong auras—at least first- or second-tier supernaturals!

Sometimes, he even spotted students whose auras were no weaker than Zhang Zhaoyang's!

"No wonder it's a top-tier school—truly full of hidden dragons and tigers."

Xu Jingming thought to himself.

In their earlier conversation, he had learned that Zhang Zhaoyang was a mid-tier fourth-tier supernatural.

Anyone with an aura close to his, even if not a fourth-tier supernatural, likely had comparable strength.
