Chapter 411: Myan! S-Class Dangerous Mission!

Xu Jingming currently has more than enough low-level combat techniques; he needs more powerful ones.

That's why Su Qingli gave him this SS+ level combat technique.

"I do have even stronger SSS-level combat techniques, but you can only learn them after reaching sixth rank.

Otherwise, using one technique might drain all your abilities and still not be enough.

Of course, this SS+ level Thunder Dragon Technique will consume about half your abilities with a single release."

Su Qingli said softly, "Also, from now on, whenever you need combat techniques above S level,

don't go to the library—come directly to me. I have better ones."

"Understood, teacher."

Nodding, Xu Jingming took the manual from Su Qingli's hands.

In fact, he had already noticed this last time at the Thunder Martial Arts Gym's library.

Although the library did have S-level and SSS-level lightning techniques, their power was mediocre compared to other techniques of the same rank.

It seemed the premium S-level and SSS-level techniques were all held by Teacher Su or the deputy directors.

Of course,

ordinary S-level techniques could be shared, but premium S-level techniques were exclusive lineages.

How could they possibly be easily added to the public resource pool?

Here, the importance of a good teacher becomes clear.

As the third-generation director of the Thunder Martial Arts Gym and a Level S lightning ability user,

Su Qingli likely possessed the largest collection of lightning combat techniques in all of Great Xia.

"The Thunder Dragon Technique is an SS+ level combat technique, extremely powerful.

Of course, its content is also deeply complex and difficult to learn—start by studying..."

Just as she was about to urge Xu Jingming to study carefully, she remembered his terrifying comprehension and immediately changed her tone:

"Never mind, I won't stress it anymore.

Take the manual back, and if anything is unclear, just come ask me directly.

If it's inconvenient to come, you can call me.

And if you master it on your own like before, be sure to let me know."

Studying an SS+ level combat technique independently until mastery.

In the past, Su Qingli would have thought this was a joke.

But Xu Jingming had already proven himself—she couldn't help but believe it.

"Alright." Xu Jingming smiled calmly.

Study? What's the point?

Once I've studied the manual enough to unlock the point-adding feature, I'll just use the system—no need to expend much effort.

"By the way, teacher, while I was in Dungeon #4, I received a warning from a Black Dragon Corps squad.

They said my Level 6 combat power isn't allowed to freely hunt low-rank beasts in the dungeon—where should I go instead?"

Xu Jingming hesitated slightly as he asked.

"You want to hunt beasts again?"

Su Qingli was surprised, and even Ling Shuang beside her cast him a questioning look.

Ability users are human, not machines.

Even teams that rotate night watches in the wilderness need rest after staying over a month.

For someone like Xu Jingming, a solo practitioner, the recovery time should be even longer to relieve mental fatigue.

Yet here he was, just back, already thinking of going again.

"Yes."

Xu Jingming nodded, "I'm considering going straight to the national frontline battlefield."

The 30,000-plus ability points remaining on the Deep Blue system panel seemed like a lot.

But in reality, they barely lasted—enough to barely add points to Body Strengthening and Soul Refinement techniques.

He needed a place with more beasts to harvest ability points.

The frontline battlefield mentioned by Wu Shuo and the others seemed like a good option.

"The frontline battlefield is different from the wilderness—every ability user must follow orders from superior officers.

Given your personality, you probably won't like going there."

Su Qingli shook her head, "Unless you reach seventh rank, a Master, and gain freedom of movement."

A battlefield isn't a game—it's a literal meat grinder!

When beast hordes attack, all ability users must act according to the battlefield commander's orders.

Commanders even have wartime authority to execute disobedient ability users on the spot.

"Domestic wilderness zones forbid indiscriminate killing of low-rank beasts—you can go abroad.

Other countries don't raise beasts like we do for low-rank ability users to train on.

They genuinely can't handle those beasts; even if you wiped them all out,

no one would complain—in fact, they'd thank you."

After a moment's thought, Su Qingli's clear, melodious voice spoke again:

"Within our neighbor country, Myan, there are several large wilderness zones they can't manage—you could try there.

Also, Myan is less than six hundred kilometers from our gym's headquarters; travel is convenient."

Myan?

Xu Jingming's heart stirred—Cultural Relic #3 was near Myan.

It's late July now; Cultural Relic #3 opens around September.

Staying there over a month would let him wait for the relic's opening and obtain that crucial SSS-level Soul Refinement technique.

"Alright, I'll look into it carefully after I leave." Xu Jingming nodded.

"Director, since Xu Jingming is going to Myan, why not assign him that S-level task?"

At that moment, Ling Shuang interjected softly.

"That S-level task?"

Su Qingli seemed to recall something, paused briefly, then smiled gently at Xu Jingming:

"This task suits you well—and the location has a vast wilderness nearby."

As she spoke, her slender hand waved.

Virtual light projected from the ceiling, forming a holographic list of tasks.

She tapped the first task, marked in blood-red.

Instantly, a miniature blue planet appeared, with a blood-red marker on Myan's territory.

"Two days ago, our Thunder Martial Arts Gym branch in Myan was attacked.

Most ability users, including the seventh-rank branch director, were killed—and the perpetrator remains at large."

Here, Su Qingli's voice grew icy:

"The task requires capturing the perpetrator and rebuilding the branch.

Completion rewards 30,000 points—roughly six hundred million Great Xia currency.

Due to involvement with Myan's local forces and a seventh-rank Master, the danger level is S-class.

Decide whether to accept—it's fine if you don't want to."

"S-level task? No problem—give it to me."

Without hesitation, Xu Jingming accepted.

With his current strength, he couldn't yet kill a seventh-rank Master.

But if he spent a month freely hunting beasts in that wilderness, accumulating enough ability points,

then leveling up by adding points, the problem would vanish.

Also, this was Teacher Su's first task for him—he naturally didn't want to refuse.

"Good. This task is yours. Details are available in the gym's task system.

You can rest here a few more days; arrive in Myan no later than a week from now."

Su Qingli nodded in satisfaction.

After the recent battle, Xu Jingming had gained minor prestige within the gym.

If he completed this task, it would undoubtedly further boost his popularity among the gym's younger generation.

For Su Qingli, who was grooming Xu Jingming as her successor, this was a good thing.
