Chapter 194

Behind.

Principal Guhe stroked his beard, looking at the frost giants radiating an aura of death, and clicked his tongue repeatedly.

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

"This girl Han Xue, so many years have passed, the frost giants she summons carry an ever-increasing killing intent."

Hearing Principal Guhe's sigh.

Xu Wenchang nodded in deep agreement.

He turned to look at Principal Guhe, a strange light flickering in his eyes:

"Principal..."

"Today, we have thoroughly witnessed Lin Mo's comprehension."

"You are one of the top thunder techniques in our Dragon Nation!"

"If I recall correctly, you, old sir, also master two high-level thunder skills?"

"How about... taking advantage of today, you also make the effort and teach them to Lin Mo together?"

Hearing Xu Wenchang's proposal.

Principal Guhe chuckled.

"Do you think I personally ran to the back mountain today for what? Just to join the fun?"

"After Han Laoshi finishes teaching, I will personally step onto the field."

"However..."

Principal Guhe's tone shifted:

"Among the two high-level skills I know, one of them, Lei Yun Purgatory, this kid already knows, and apart from damage, in terms of elemental control, he uses it no worse than me."

"As for the remaining one..."

"It is hailed as the strongest high-level single-target damage skill among all elements!"

"If Lin Mo masters this move, it will greatly strengthen his single-target offensive capabilities."

Listening to Principal Guhe's words.

Xu Wenchang rubbed his hands together, looking somewhat envious.

He turned his head to glance at Zhang Daoyuan beside him.

The two exchanged a look and simultaneously let out a helpless sigh.

"Sigh..."

Xu Wenchang's face was full of regret:

"What a pity!"

"Old Zhang, tell me, why aren't we mage classes!"

"Otherwise, today we could at least teach a thing or two!"

Zhang Daoyuan also shook his head with a bitter smile.

"Who says otherwise..."

"Watching Han Laoshi impart the Dao and teach lessons to the future pillars of our Dragon Nation, my heart feels like it's being scratched by a cat."

Ahead.

Han Xue turned her head, looking at Lin Mo.

Before she could open her mouth.

Lin Mo cut her off directly.

"Han Laoshi."

"I understand."

"..."

Han Xue opened her mouth, paused, and said:

"Alright, then you try."

In fact, in her heart, she felt even more anxious.

As a mentor, having a prodigy student.

Having a student who, with just one glance, can perfectly replicate any skill.

It is too frustrating...

A teacher, reduced to a ruthless 'skill-casting tool', with absolutely no chance to offer guidance.

Lin Mo did not notice Han Xue's subtle psychological shift.

He gave an order to Xiao Bing:

"Xiao Bing, it's up to you."

【The 'Ice Spear Technique' haughtily lifted its small head, speaking with a disdainful tone: "Hmph, simple and easy, take it down!"】

Boom—!!!

As Lin Mo raised his right hand, the sky and earth changed color once more.

In the sky.

One black ice coffin after another descended.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground trembled wildly, smashing out one deep pit after another.

Immediately,

Creak—!

One after another, massive Frost Giants, each wielding an oversized spiked club, stepped out from the ice coffins.

That corpse-like, chilling killing intent swept across the entire scene once more.

【Congratulations! Your skill 'Ice Spike' has successfully deduced and comprehended a high-tier Ice-element skill: Frost Annihilation · Eternal Ice Coffin (Lv. 1)!】

【Frost Annihilation · Eternal Ice Coffin (Lv. 1): Summon 'Eternal Ice Coffin'. Upon the coffin opening, summon 'Polar Frost Giants'. The Frost Giants possess the 'Dominant Body' effect (immune to crowd control). Each attack with the Frost Giant's spiked club carries 'Smashing Strike', ignoring 50% of the target's defense and inflicting splash damage. Cooldown: 60 minutes.】

Gazing at this skill panel.

A hint of barely concealed fervor flashed in Lin Mo's eyes.

Good heavens!

Comes with Dominant Body!

Ignores 50% defense and even carries splash damage!

The previous high-tier skill summoned endless minions.

This one summons elite-level, or rather... BOSS-level monsters...

Now he truly has an army of one.

As the sky-filling black ice dispersed.

The Frost Giants also turned to dust at Lin Mo's wave.

Han Xie looked at Lin Mo and sighed.

Her eyes revealed a hint of relief, yet also a hint of deep helplessness.

"Alright, Lin Mo."

"It's over."

Han Xie smoothed the white hair at her ear, disturbed by the cold wind, and said softly:

"I currently... have nothing more to teach you."

"The two high-tier skills I have mastered, you have already performed even more perfectly than I."

Hearing these words.

Lin Mo couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Han Laoshi, you... only know two high-tier skills?"

The moment these words were spoken.

An eerie awkwardness filled the air.

Han Xie's lips twitched twice.

Listen to that! Is that even human speech!

What do you mean...

Only know two?

Just then,

"Hahahaha!"

A hearty laugh came from behind.

Xu Wenchang strode over, his face beaming with a smile.

Looking at Lin Mo, he laughed and scolded:

"You kid!"

"Do you really think everyone else comprehends skills just like you, as if they're click-and-get-free?"

Xu Wenchang walked to Lin Mo's side and patted his shoulder:

"For most top-tier professionals, low-tier and mid-tier skills are indeed quite numerous."

"But..."

"The difficulty of high-tier skills is on a completely different dimension from mid-tier skills."

"Let alone Han Laoshi..."

Xu Wenchang pointed to the side, "Look at Director Zhang; he is a top-tier shield warrior of level 90, yet he also only knows two high-tier skills."

"Look at Principal Guhe; his top-tier Thunder Arts, he also only knows two."

Upon saying this.

Xu Wenchang suddenly straightened his back and cleared his throat:

"As for me..."

"I, unworthy as I am, happen to have one more than them; I know three!"

The words had barely fallen.

Principal Guhe immediately shot Xu Wenchang an annoyed glare and laughed, scolding:

"Look how proud you're getting!"

"Knowing three skills and you're already sticking your tail up to the sky?"

"Why don't you compare with Lin Mo? Lin Mo now possesses six high-tier skills!"

Zhang Daoyuan, standing nearby, immediately chimed in:

"Exactly!"

"Showing off the number of high-tier skills in front of Lin Mo, Old Xu, isn't that like brandishing a broadsword before Guan Gong!"

Being thus teased by these two big shots.

Xu Wenchang let out a sheepish laugh twice and rubbed his hands:

"Aiya, I was just letting the conversation carry me here…"

"What am I comparing myself with Lin Mo for? I'm not crazy — wouldn't that just be asking for trouble!"

Listening to the conversation between these big shots.

Lin Mo was, truth be told, a little surprised.

He hadn't expected that those big shots who dominated their regions only knew two or three high-tier skills themselves.

Looks like his cheat was still cranked up a bit too high.

Lin Mo gathered his thoughts and said humbly:

"Hahaha, I just got a little lucky. Compared with Teacher Xu, Han Laoshi, Director Zhang, and Principal Guhe, I still have a long way to go."

Hearing Lin Mo's modest words.

Principal Guhe stroked his beard, deeply gratified.

Absurd talent would be one thing, but this kind of temperament is top-tier too — Long Nation really has picked up a treasure.

Xu Wenchang laughed and waved his hand, steering the topic aside:

"Alright, alright — you, kid, are about to have seven high-tier skills!"

"Hm? Seven?"

Lin Mo, hearing this, looked at Xu Wenchang with some puzzlement.

Principal Guhe chuckled lightly and picked up the thread:

"Lin Mo, I also practice thunder arts — I happen to know a couple of high-tier skills myself."

"One of them is exactly your 'Lei Yun Purgatory' — you've already used it more perfectly than I have."

"As for the other one, it's called 'Heavenly Punishment · Thunder God Spear,' hailed as the strongest single-target damage skill among all high-tier skills."

Principal Guhe stared straight into Lin Mo's eyes, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth:

"Kid."

"Interested?"

The instant his words fell.

The skill bar exploded.

【【Earth Shield Art】 let out a startled cry: "Boo-hoo! Big bro! The two of us are gonna be the dead-last ones at home!"】
