Chapter 46: Another advancement in cultivation level! E-rank lightning element, 1st tier, 9th level!
The campfire burned all night, and Lin Yuan finally got a good night's sleep, something he rarely did.
It wasn't because he had a good mindset, but because dozens of other test takers around him spontaneously formed a night watch shift. They weren't watching for him, they were watching for themselves.
The monsters in this forest are getting increasingly strange; who would dare to sleep soundly?
Since someone was keeping watch, Lin Yuan decided not to stand on ceremony.
He found a big tree, lay down under it, and fell asleep in three seconds.
His sleep quality was better than in the hotel he rented. At least there was no snoring from the next room.
......
In the latter half of the night, when the moon had slid a bit from its zenith to the west, Lin Yuan woke up.
I wasn't woken up by noise; I woke up naturally after I had slept enough.
A few examinees were chatting quietly by the campfire, their voices very low.
Seeing that he was awake, they lowered their voices even further and secretly glanced in his direction.
Lin Yuan didn't pay any attention.
He got up and walked a short distance into the woods, finding a secluded spot to sit down.
Open the system panel.
[Host: Lin Yuan]
[Weak Lightning Strike (Lightning Element): Rank E, Tier 1, Level 8]
One thousand and twelve points.
On the third day, Lin Yuan's points had already exceeded 1,000.
He didn't know the previous years' college entrance examination score records in Hangzhou, but he guessed they were already beneath his feet.
Ability Points: 2180.
Looking at the number, he suddenly wondered how much lightning-type abilities would need to be upgraded from level E to level D.
I hadn't paid attention to this before, because it costs 500 points to upgrade from F to E, and it must be even more expensive to upgrade from E to D. It's disheartening to see this.
But now that his ability points have exceeded two thousand, he feels he can finally feel a little heartbroken.
[Lightning-type Ability: Rank E → Rank D, Required Ability Points: 5000]
Lin Yuan stared at that number for three seconds.
"Five thousand? That's awesome, Krass." He said expressionlessly.
Then he repeated, "Five thousand."
Lin Yuan slapped his thigh and said calmly, "I'm not on my guard, I really am not on my guard."
Five thousand it is.
Anyway, I can't save enough right now, so I'll focus on raising my cultivation level first.
Ability level and realm are two different things—the level is a sequence of F, E, D, C, B, A, S, which determines the upper limit of the quality of the ability.
The realm is divided into nine levels of the first tier, which determines the actual combat power that can be exerted at the moment.
With an E-rank, first-tier, eighth-level power and an S-rank spacetime ability, his combat strength already surpasses that of others of the same rank.
It's not too late to slowly accumulate those 5,000 points once you reach the second tier.
"Upgrade your lightning-type ability level."
[Consuming 800 Energy Points, Lightning-type Energy has been upgraded from Tier 1, Level 8 to Tier 1, Level 9]
[Remaining Ability Points: 1380]
Silvery-white lightning surged from his body, brighter than ever before.
The surrounding air was ionized, crackling and popping, and fallen leaves and grass clippings on the ground were attracted by static electricity and stood upright.
First-order, 9 levels. Only one step away from second-order.
The lightning slowly subsided, and Lin Yuan clenched his fist.
He glanced at the remaining 1380 ability points, then at the proficiency level of the Sands of Time—proficient.
It takes 2000 ability points to advance from proficient to master, which is still a long way off.
You can't level up by spending points now, so you might as well save them for later.
Lin Yuan closed the system panel, leaned against a tree trunk, and looked up at the moon overhead.
The moon is very round and big.
Tomorrow will be the third day, and also the last day of the field training.
After the exam, I'll go back to Hangzhou, and then to Shanghai.
Upon arriving in Shanghai, the first thing I did was to go to Teacher Shen Man and ask for the treatment of an S-level student.
He really has too few attack methods right now. Thunderclap is a spear technique, and Sands of Time is a control skill; both are good skills, but they are both single-target.
The third move of Thunder Soaring Through the Nine Heavens, "Thunderous Movement," is the most powerful, but it can only pierce one enemy with a single thrust.
When encountering groups of monsters, he can only kill them one by one, which is inefficient.
The Sands of Time can control the area, but slowing down enemies doesn't kill them. In the end, you still have to rely on the Purple Lightning to stab them one by one.
He needs a true area-of-effect (AOE) attack, either a ranged lightning-based skill or a spacetime-based offensive skill.
An S-class spacetime ability, and still no attack skills, it's embarrassing to even mention it.
The Sands of Time is a Tier 5 skill with strong control effects, but he wants a skill that can directly slam the power of time and space into the enemy's face.
The combat skills library of Shanghai University ranks second among the four universities, second only to Kyoto University.
Shen Man said that S-level freshmen have the highest privileges and can borrow all cultivation techniques materials that are not publicly available.
He'll definitely go in and ransack the place when the time comes.
Just then, my stomach growled.
He had to spend another day in the wild tomorrow, so he decided to hunt some game to roast after dawn. Although the meat of a second-tier monster was tough, it was still meat.
Unbeknownst to Lin Yuan, at this very moment, as he sat in the woods pondering what to eat tomorrow...
His name is spreading at a speed he never expected on the local forum for people with supernatural abilities in Hangzhou.
The incident started when an account called "Hangzhou College Entrance Examination Gossip Bot" posted a message around 11 p.m.
The post title is: "Family members!!! Look what I photographed!!!"
The title was followed by three flame emojis and a burst icon.
The video quality is terrible, clearly uploaded under extremely poor network conditions; the pixels are so blurry it's like looking through frosted glass.
But it's clear that it was one person fighting nine people.
One person, a purple spear, and nine people lying haphazardly on the ground.
The figure in the video moved as fast as a silver-purple light, weaving among the nine people, gun barrels flying, and someone fell with every move.
The final shot freezes on him shattering the ninth person's distress signal with a single shot.
The caption reads: "F-rank lightning type, one against nine, he shattered all nine people's distress signals."
It is said that this person currently has the highest score in Hangzhou, with over 700 points, and is more than 200 points ahead of the second place.
Can any experts tell me, is an F-rank lightning-type really that powerful?
The comment section exploded within half an hour of the post being published.
"F-rank? You're telling me this is F-rank? Even my E-rank fire-type, second-tier, level 1, can't take on nine opponents at once!"
"This speed is definitely lightning-type, but when did lightning-type become so outrageous? My cousin is lightning-type, E-rank, Tier 1, Level 9, and he said his hands were shaking while watching this video."
"Any test takers from Hangzhou want to know who this person is?"
"I'll go. He set up a ring on the outskirts today and fought eight or nine challengers with his bare hands, without using any weapons."
One of them was a B-rank earth-type, tier 1, level 5, who was defeated in one move. Not an instant kill, but a toy with.
"Adding to the comment above. He later punched the ground, and the ground cracked. He didn't use any superpowers, just pure physical strength. Someone knowledgeable about bone tempering said it was at least seven rounds of bone tempering."
