Chapter 411: Myan! S-Class Dangerous Mission!

Xu Jingming currently has more than enough low-grade combat techniques; what he needs are 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 a combat technique above S-level,

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

"Understood, Teacher."

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

Actually, last time he had already noticed this at the Lei Ting Martial Arts Academy's library.

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

It seemed then that the premium S-level and SSS-level techniques were all held by Su Laoshi 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 Lei Ting Martial Arts Academy and a Level S lightning ability user,

Su Qingli likely possessed the largest collection of lightning-based combat techniques in all of Daya.

"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 ability, so her red lips moved slightly and she immediately changed her words:

"Never mind, I won't emphasize it so much.

Take the manual back, and if you have any questions, just come ask me directly.

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

If you learn it on your own again like before, remember to let me know."

Studying and mastering an SS+ level combat technique entirely on your own.

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

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

"Alright." Xu Jingming smiled calmly.

Study? Study my ass!

Once I've studied the manual enough to reach the point where I can spend points, I'll just use the system—no need to expend much effort.

"By the way, Teacher, when I went to Dungeon #4, I received a warning from the Black Dragon Corps squad.

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

Pausing, Xu Jingming asked hesitantly.

"You want to go hunt beasts again?"

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

Ability users are still human, not machines.

Even ability squads that rotate night watches need to rest for a while after staying in the wilderness for over a month.

And someone like Xu Jingming, a lone wolf, should need even longer rest to recover from mental fatigue.

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

"Mm."

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

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

But in reality, they barely lasted—couldn't even afford points for Body Strengthening Art or Soul Refinement Art.

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

The frontline battlefield mentioned by Wu Shuo and the others before 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 wouldn't like being there."

Su Qingli shook her head, "Unless you reach seventh rank, Master level, and gain freedom of movement—that might be different."

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.

"If you can't freely kill low-tier beasts in Daya's wilderness, go abroad.

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

They genuinely can't handle those beasts—even if you kill them all,

no one will complain; they'll even 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 handle—you could try there.

Also, Myan is less than 600 kilometers from our academy's headquarters; coming and going is very convenient."

Myan?

Xu Jingming's heart stirred — Civilization Ruin No. 3 seemed to be near Myanmar.

It was the end of July now, and Civilization Ruin No. 3 would open around September.

Going over to stay for a little over a month would let him wait until the ruin opened and obtain that extremely crucial SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art.

"Alright, then after I go down I'll look into it carefully." Xu Jingming nodded.

"Master, since Xu Jingming is going to Myanmar, why not assign that S-rank mission to him?"

At this moment, Ling Shuang, who was standing to the side, cut in and suggested in a gentle voice.

"That S-rank mission?"

Su Qingli seemed to recall something. After a moment's hesitation, her almond eyes finally turned toward Xu Jingming with a faint smile:

"This mission really does suit you, and there's a large stretch of wilderness area near the mission site."

As her words fell, she gave a wave with her slender jade hand.

Virtual light projected down from the ceiling, converging into a holographic mission list.

Then she tapped the blood-red mission marked at the very front of the list.

Instantly a miniature Blue Star appeared, with the blood-red marker showing up within Myanmar's borders on the map.

"Two days ago, our Lei Ting Wu Guan's branch hall located inside Myanmar was attacked by someone.

The entire branch — including most of the ability users, among them the seventh-rank branch hall master — was killed, and the perpetrator still hasn't been found to this day."

At this point, Su Qingli's voice gradually turned icy:

"The requirement of this mission is to capture the perpetrator and rebuild the branch hall.

Completing the mission yields 30,000 points, which is a reward of roughly 600 million Daxia coins.

Because the mission involves local Myanmar forces as well as a seventh-rank Grandmaster, the danger level is relatively high, so the mission rank is S-rank.

See whether you want to take it — if you can't, don't force yourself."

"An S-rank mission? No problem, just leave it to me."

Xu Jingming didn't even think about it, agreeing on the spot.

With his current strength, although he still had no way to kill a seventh-rank Grandmaster,

if he were allowed to slaughter wantonly in the wilderness area over there for a month, accumulating enough ability points,

then putting some points into his level, there probably wouldn't be any problem.

Besides, this was the first mission Su Laoshi had given him, so naturally he didn't want to refuse.

"Very well, then I'll leave this mission to you. You can look up the mission details on the martial hall's mission system.

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

Su Qingli nodded in satisfaction.

After the battle just now, Xu Jingming had also gained a bit of a reputation within the martial hall.

If Xu Jingming could handle this mission well, it would undoubtedly further boost his popularity among the younger generation in the martial hall.

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