Chapter 426: Arrival! Chaos Triangle Zone!

"Teacher, Xu Jingming has gone to carry out that S-class mission."

Sky Talent Training Camp, open-air training ground.

On the ground, Wang Dong sat cross-legged, his entire body enveloped in a deep blue flame.

Terrifying heat waves swept outward, raising the surrounding temperature to several thousand degrees, as if the air itself had warped.

Yet Hu Jinyu, the deputy director opposite him several meters away, remained completely unaffected.

"If this mission in Myanmar is handled well, it will indeed boost our prestige."

"But according to the information I received, this mission runs deep—even a Master-level psychic would find it troublesome to investigate."

"Xu Jingming choosing to take this mission is bound to be a waste of time."

Hu Jinyu said grimly.

Although this mission is only S-class, because it involves the reputation of Lei Thunder Martial Arts Gym, many senior elders of the gym are closely watching.

If he fails, Xu Jingming's evaluation among them will surely drop significantly.

This is actually advantageous for me.

Of course, if Xu Jingming could die over there, that would be best of all.

After all, before he left, he took away a hundred martial technique scrolls, including even one SS-class and several S-class ones.

If these scrolls are lost, Su Qingli will be the first to be held accountable.

Although she won't lose her position as director, her prestige will undoubtedly plummet to rock bottom.

But Xu Jingming is an SS-class psychic awakening, so Su Qingli must have given him plenty of backup.

The probability of death is extremely low...

"Xu Jingming will waste at least a month in Myanmar."

"This is the key to widening the gap between you and him—if you cultivate the 'Heaven-Scorching Fire Control Art' to Master-level proficiency."

"Your strength will rise another tier!"

"Then Xu Jingming will be left far behind you!"

"When the National Talent Exchange Competition begins, you'll be our Lei Thunder Martial Arts Gym's brightest new star!"

The Heaven-Scorching Fire Control Art is Hu Jinyu's self-created SS-class combat technique, extremely useful for elemental fire psychics.

Wang Dong indeed has great talent in this area; he reached Advanced-level proficiency in just four years.

He's now just one step away from Master-level proficiency.

"Also, have your people post on the forum."

"Publish everything about Xu Jingming obtaining Su Qingli's special privilege to borrow a hundred martial technique scrolls from the library."

"And that he took them to Myanmar for the mission."

"I want them to see the power of public opinion."

The deputy director Hu Jinyu's lips curled into a faint smile.

A hundred martial technique scrolls taken like that—someone has to bear the pressure, right?

"Understood." Wang Dong nodded, immediately grasping his teacher's intent.

For someone of Xu Jingming's status, borrowing scrolls isn't a big deal.

But borrowing scrolls and then heading to a dangerous foreign country? That's problematic.

Once posted on the forum and slightly guided, it will instantly turn into public questioning of Xu Jingming's actions.

If he completes the mission successfully, these doubts won't matter—but if he fails? Then things will get interesting...

Nanning City is a full 645 kilometers from Myanmar's Chaos Triangle Zone.

To minimize noise and avoid detection by avian monsters,

the entire aircraft was shielded by an operator with a special sonic-type psychic ability, muting all flight sounds.

Thus, three hours later, the aircraft landed safely at the Chaos Triangle Zone's only airport.

Xu Jingming and his team of five blended into the crowd, walking out of the airport together.

Those around them were mostly psychics, each clad in combat suits and carrying weapons.

Xu Jingming was no exception—he wore the pure black S-class combat suit.

The Flowing Cloud Golden Blade Spear and the Radiant Thunder Staff were not stored in his space ring.

Instead, they were crossed and strapped across his back.

In the Chaos Triangle Zone, displaying weapons is necessary to exert sufficient deterrence.

And indeed,

the chilling gleam of the spear's tip mingled with the flickering lightning from the Radiant Thunder Staff's crystal core.

Many nearby psychics cast wary glances in their direction.

"Carrying two weapons is a bit inconvenient—if only I could fuse the spear and the Radiant Thunder Staff together."

"Then I could still use the spear while benefiting from the elemental weapon's enhancement."

"Come to think of it, why are elemental weapons always made in staff form?"

"Why not shape them directly into swords, spears, or other weapons? Wouldn't that be two benefits in one?"

Xu Jingming glanced at Lin Hui's own staff-shaped elemental weapon, puzzled.

A lightning-element spear with a 30% enhancement? Just thinking about it sounds amazing!

"Because most elemental weapons are too fragile,"

Lin Hui explained with a smile. "Elemental weapons are designed to better conduct and amplify psychic energy.

But such materials are only as strong as F-class or E-class alloys."

My elemental weapon here is forged from special wood—it's even weaker than F-class alloy."

Such materials obviously can't be shaped into close-combat weapons like swords or spears."

There's another point he didn't mention: most psychics specialize in either the warrior path or the elementalist path.

The shape of elemental weapons doesn't matter much to elementalists.

Only someone like Xu Jingming—a freak—would pursue both paths simultaneously.

"I see."

Xu Jingming suddenly understood. "But the Radiant Thunder Staff's shape is still too cumbersome."

"Later, if I get the chance, I'll look for an elemental weapon like Cao Ren's—something like a wristband."

That way, even when using the spear, I'd still get the lightning-element enhancement.

"I haven't even used a wind-element elemental weapon yet, and you're already planning to replace yours..."

Lin Hui gave him a forlorn look.

"I was just saying it offhand," Xu Jingming laughed.

The Radiant Thunder Staff is a high-grade elemental weapon; finding a comparable replacement isn't easy.

"My family runs equipment manufacturing—if you want one, I can keep an eye out for you,"

Xia Lan said, blinking her eyes like sapphires.

Space-element elemental weapons are extremely rare, but her family had prepared one for her.

She just needs to reach fifth tier and become an elementalist, with sufficient mental strength to use it.

Though it's only a mid-grade elemental weapon, she's already very satisfied.

"No thanks—I don't have much cash on hand. No need to waste it." Xu Jingming shook his head.

He still had about 3.3 billion Daya currency in his bank account—seems like a lot, but it's nowhere near enough for gear.

After all, an SS-class combat suit starts at over ten billion—this is just terrifying.

As they chatted along the way, the group quickly exited the airport and stepped into the city of the Chaos Triangle Zone.

A single glance revealed the entire scene.

Aside from the foreign pedestrians clearly different from Daya citizens and the Myanmar-style architecture,

the surrounding environment seemed no different from an ordinary Daya city.

But Xu Jingming soon noticed some subtle differences...

PS: I opened a Douyin account (same username). I originally planned to livestream writing later, but found I need 1,000 followers—those who like it can follow me; if I don't hit 1,000, forget it...
