slicing toward his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blade Kill · Throat Cut\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shield appeared—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was sliced apart like paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>PUCHI!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou’s throat was cut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Kiyomi felt something strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt like cutting through a shadow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a real body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not the real one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s some kind of Void creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou instantly retreated far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This assassin’s pursuit was terrifying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had no time to breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi was already in front of him again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her dagger pierced straight through his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>PUCHI!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A black chain shot through Kiyomi’s body as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the pierced body faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou suddenly realized something horrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still couldn’t tell which one was the real body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had her real body even entered the battle yet?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another strike pierced his abdomen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one carried powerful poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou retreated again, unleashing silent magic in all directions!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void tremors erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They shattered the surrounding illusions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment the illusions shattered—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>New ones formed immediately and attacked again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I need large-scale magic!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boundless Void, echoing oblivion...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throat Cut!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without warning—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dagger suddenly sliced across his throat again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His incantation collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interrupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, a mage whose throat was cut like that would already be dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou felt poison spreading through his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After so many slashes, his body was already covered in wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But finally—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swung his staff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A purple-black rift tore open across the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive void wave blasted skyward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Eruption\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attack covered an 800-meter radius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A catastrophic spell capable of wiping out entire armies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi simply stood calmly at the edge of the spell’s range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idiot...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m not standing still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could randomly bombing an area ever hit me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Illusions chased Void Zhou through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi walked slowly on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou had no idea where her real body was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t even know where to aim his magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>PUCHI!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A final slash struck his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou’s body fell from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi had finally won.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou stood up slowly after his wounds healed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait a minute...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When you were getting crushed by my brother earlier, you weren’t this fierce!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching someone Rei had just bullied now turn around and bully him—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou felt extremely unsettled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she was just a human girl!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since when were humans this terrifying?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a proud genius among the Void race—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rising star admired by many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now he was getting beaten up by every human he met?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After beating Void Zhou thoroughly—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi felt much better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her confidence returned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I’m not actually weak...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rei is just absurdly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her fight with Rei had almost made her believe she was weak enough to lose to anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ugly creature had called Rei his brother and discussed Origin Magic with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had assumed he was at the same level as Rei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it seemed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just average.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So magical geniuses aren’t that common after all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or has human genius become as common as cabbages?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Different thoughts flashed through their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Void Zhou sparred with Kiyomi three more times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lost every match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The problem was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spell radius wasn’t large enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His casting frequency wasn’t fast enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi could maintain eight illusions continuously in under half a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou couldn’t kill all eight instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nor did he have the perception to locate her real body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t even force out her Ultimate Assassination Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was simply beaten black and blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every match ended in defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rei, your friend is too weak. I can’t gain any insight from fighting him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the fight ended, Kiyomi said this directly in front of Void Zhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou cursed internally but didn’t dare say it out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did you two plan this today just to humiliate me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi’s arrogant comment earned her another duel with Rei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou watched with satisfaction as the previously cocky Kiyomi was once again completely dominated by Rei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the end of the fight—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi knelt on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears nearly formed in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Battle over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rei simply said calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re about the same as him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think your speed is a bit too slow. Maybe try improving that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of speed, she was already the fastest in the entire Assassin Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speed had always been her greatest pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she received that evaluation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Zhou also came down from the stands and said seriously:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you’re weak, train more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You ugly creature!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why should I listen to a defeated opponent?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother... I’ve learned quite a bit of Void magic recently. My magic ability may not match yours, but I’ve gained some insights we might share.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rei smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure. I’ve also developed some new understanding of Origin Magic lately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve even created a few interesting spells.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since we have the chance today, let’s exchange some ideas.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Origin Mages sat down right there—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And began discussing magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sparring session that had supposedly been for Kiyomi ended with her humiliating defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furious and unwilling to accept it—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiyomi left to grind ranked matches alone.\u003C\u002Fp>",2571,"2026-05-29T04:56:27.792Z","2026-06-01T04:29:12.818Z",1,"novelbin.me","98f6f8e67b116677e66caf4dcbbbb384074406555743139e198fc4180c781634","i-gain-a-god-tier-talent-every-level-chapter-162","i-gain-a-god-tier-talent-every-level-chapter-160",490,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-gain-a-god-tier-talent-every-level-cover.jpg"]
