Chapter 844: Daya Resource Library! Evaluation of the Strongest Genius!

"Also, what's going on with your lightning-based ability? Did it really evolve?"

Hum—

Powerful spiritual force spread out, blocking all surveillance, as Xue Jian asked with eager anticipation.

"Most likely."

Xu Jingming nodded, not concealing anything:

"According to my artificial intelligence's analysis, the power of my evolved lightning-based ability has reached SSS level."

Although not all artificial intelligences are as powerful as Eva.

But whenever he uses Chaotic Divine Thunder, top-tier AIs will inevitably analyze its rank.

Given that, it's better to be open and honest—it will earn greater attention from Daya.

"SSS level...?" Xue Jian's eyes widened sharply.

He had imagined Xu Jingming's ability might have evolved to SS+ level.

But he never expected it to be SSS level!!

"Of course—if it weren't an SSS-level ability, how could you have killed a ninth-rank Martial Saint while still at seventh-rank upper peak?"

Xue Jian exhaled slowly, calming his emotions before speaking again:

"Your AI's analysis may not be entirely accurate. Once we return to Daya, we'll conduct a full-spectrum assessment of your ability."

As soon as he finished speaking, Eva's vehement protest echoed in Xu Jingming's mind:

"Who are you talking about?! Eva's analyses have never been wrong!"

"If your ability is confirmed to be legitimate, the General Councilor himself will likely meet with you personally."

Xue Jian clapped Xu Jingming hard on the shoulder and said cheerfully:

"The General Councilor isn't someone just anyone can meet—make sure you treasure this opportunity."

"General Councilor Zhou?"

Xu Jingming's eyes lit up.

Zhou Yuanwu, the sole supreme powerhouse of Daya!

He rarely appeared in public, remaining deeply mysterious—yet Xu Jingming now had a chance to meet such a being.

"A supreme being beyond ninth rank... what kind of existence could that be...?"

Xu Jingming mused inwardly.

"Alright, we still have time before reaching Daya."

Xue Jian waved his hand, returning to his seat and donning the virtual headset.

Next, he would urgently report this situation to Lord Cao and prepare to convene the National Council.

Xu Jingming also returned to his seat, put on the virtual headset, and entered the virtual world.

After a month offline, his friend list was piled high with messages—from his teacher Yang Zhentian, his aunt, and his cousin.

There were also congratulations from Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chuxuan on their breakthroughs to fourth rank; Xu Jingming replied to each one.

Then he asked Eva: "Just now, Lord Xue said he's granted me access to the Daya Resource Library—can I enter it now?"

"Of course." Eva snapped her fingers.

The villa's living room scene instantly transformed into a vast space resembling a colossal library.

But the shelves weren't lined with books—they held rare treasures.

These shelves were packed tightly together, stretching beyond sight.

"Welcome, Daya Ability User Xu Jingming, to the Resource Library!"

A voice like a great bell resonated through the space: "From Awakened to Seventh-Rank Upper Peak Master,

you've endured immense hardship on this path. Daya is honored to have a warrior like you.

Reward: Initial Contribution Points!"

Hum~~~

With a soft chime, Xu Jingming's contribution points in the lower-left corner rose from 0 to 10,000.

And the great-bell voice did not cease, continuing:

"In addition to the initial reward, we will grant extra contribution points based on your recorded deeds.

Now, compiling data.

You first registered as an adventurer at Yuan Shui Supply Base.

On your first return from the Wild Zone, you brought back loot from hundreds of ferocious beasts.

Subsequently, you repeatedly..."

The voice continued, meticulously cataloging every time Xu Jingming entered the Wild Zone or fought on the frontlines.

"From Awakened to Seventh-Rank Upper Peak Master, you achieved this in just two years and three months.

During this time, you spent most of your days on missions, hunting ferocious beasts.

You have been rated 'Strongest Genius'—bonus contribution points: 100,000!!"

Whoosh—

His contribution points, previously at 10,000, surged abruptly to 110,000 and stopped.

"Strongest Genius?" Xu Jingming's eyebrows lifted.

He hadn't expected the Resource Library to be this intelligent—it had summarized every detail of his past.

"In today's information age, once you register as an adventurer and sell ferocious beast materials to supply bases,

every action can be traced if someone chooses to look."

Xu Jingming mused inwardly.

Under normal circumstances, one would need to be an eighth-rank Master Zongshi to open the resource vault.

Such a powerhouse is rare even in the super nation of Great Xia.

It's nothing special to be given some contribution points when opening the resource vault.

"S-rank, the resource vault has already opened browsing permissions to me. What do you want to see? I can pull it up right now."

At this moment, Eva on his shoulder said excitedly.

"Arrange all items in the resource vault into a table sorted by contribution value."

Xu Jingming instructed with some anticipation.

"Eva understands."

With a wave of Bai Xi's small hand, an incomparably vast table immediately came into view.

【【Strange Rhyme Vermilion Fruit (SSR-grade)】: Slightly increases the probability of breaking through to Supreme Being. Contribution required: 1 billion.

【Divine Blood Essence (SSR-grade)】: After consumption by Enhancement-type ability users, there is a certain probability of evolving Enhancement-type abilities from S-grade to SS-grade. Contribution required: 1 billion.

【Elemental Essence (SSR-grade)】: After use by Element-type ability users, there is a certain probability of evolving Element-type abilities from S-grade to SS-grade. Contribution required: 1 billion.

......】

There were many items on the table, dazzling Xu Jingming, but what struck him most were the resources at the very top.

"A strange fruit that can increase the probability of breaking through to Supreme Being? An essence that can evolve abilities to SS-grade?"

Xu Jingming swallowed. Even for him, with the system at his side, these things felt incomparably rare.

Let alone ordinary ability users.

"I thought the 110,000 contribution points gifted were already plenty, but looking at it now, they're still too few."

Letting out a long breath, Xu Jingming continued browsing.

He quickly found the Origin Armor that Blood Sword had mentioned, as well as the Obsidian-grade fighter jet that Hearing Ling Shuang had mentioned.

The former required 10 million contribution points, while the latter required 4 million.

"Compared to the 1 billion contribution points at the top, the contribution cost for these two items is still reasonable."

Xu Jingming nodded inwardly. Just as he was about to continue looking, he suddenly received a message from Hearing Ling Shuang:

"Jingming, Su Qingli is looking for us. Are you free? Let's head over together."
