A Cheater!

“Chu Lingjun, why do I feel like only my brother can defeat you?”

Ding Peng looked at Chu Lingjun and bared his teeth. He accepted defeat and spoke with envy.

“That’s because it’s true.” Chu Lingjun raised his thumb.

“Hey!” Ding Peng was fuming with white smoke.

In terms of superpowers, Duan Feng from Class Six, who was immune to elements, and Zhou Anqi from Class Three, who could control flames, were considered strong opponents for Chu Lingjun. However, Chu Lingjun was also a practicing martial artist, so he was confident that he might stand a chance against those two.

If he were to face Ding Peng’s older brother, Chu Lingjun’s chances of victory would be very slim!

Chu Lingjun had witnessed Ding Ying’s strength when they had field work. He witnessed Ding Ying’s battle with the mutated beasts.

Ding Ying was the class monitor of Class Eleven. He was ranked one of the top three students in Year Two. He was an Early Stage Rank Two martial artist!

After a martial artist breaks through to Rank Two, their vitality can be converted into true qi, and their attributes would greatly increase. They will even be able to fly over roofs and walls!

At the Middle Stage, one could transfer qi to others. If one held a saber or sword, they could activate saber qi or sword qi.

At the Late Stage of Rank Two, one will be able to cut through walls with a single slash, and could also control objects remotely.

After reaching Rank Two, a martial artist’s strength will have a qualitative change!

Moreover, by covering his body with true qi, he could block spell-type attacks.

Chu Lingjun estimated that if he were to meet Ding Ying with his current strength, the outcome would be a 20 percent chance of victory and 80 percent chance of loss.

The relationship between the two was like that of an archer and an assassin.

Chu Lingjun’s only chance at winning was to shoot out lightning bolts before Ding Ying could get close. Then, the scales of victory would tilt towards his side once he gets the distance advantage.

However, if the enemy approached him first, Chu Lingjun would definitely be at the short end of the stick.

After a martial artist advances to Rank Two, all his attributes would rise. Be it speed or strength, they would be several times stronger than a Rank One martial artist!

Under such circumstances, Chu Lingjun wouldn’t have much time to react!

The weakness of a mage was obvious to a martial artist!

However, Chu Lingjun didn’t have to belittle himself. After all, he was only in Year One, while Ding Ying was in Year Two.

It was already considered no small feat for Chu Lingjun to have a winning chance against Ding Ying.

After the sparring match, Chu Lingjun, Lin Yin, Zhuo Chang, and the others came to the Visualization Garden.

There were already many people in the quiet Visualization Garden.

These people were all espers cultivating.

Each year in Quicksand High School, there would be 11 new classes created for new students. Each class had about 50 students, which meant that there were a total of 1650 students per year.

According to the probability, there should be about 165 students with superpowers.

After half a month of cultivation, Chu Lingjun realized that there weren’t that many people coming to the Visualization Garden.

There were many types of superpowers. Some were overpowering, while others were weak and were not meant to be used in the battlefield.

For example, some students had the power of the excavator skill in the Psionic Domain.

In other words, he was born to operate an excavator, and he could play with all kinds of equipment.

Some people even had the ability to change their skin color in the battle zone. They could change their skin to white, black, red, or even a rainbow color.

Some people have a sensory superpower, which gives them extraordinary pain. The pain they feel would be several times greater than others.

These superpowers were not worth cultivating as it would just bring them more trouble. Therefore, these people rarely or never cultivated them.

This was also why everyone was so shocked when Chu Lingjun awakened his lightning superpower, and why the school gave him such great benefits.

Chu Lingjun’s ability to control lightning belonged to the Heavens!

As long as he cultivated well, he will be able to fly high!

In the Visualization Garden, Chu Lingjun swept his gaze across his surroundings before walking towards the twelfth banyan tree not far away.

There were two people sitting cross-legged under the tree, meditating with their eyes closed. One was Duan Feng, who had elemental immunity, and the other was Zhou Anqi, who had fire superpowers.

Chu Lingjun sat next to them and closed his eyes. The tablet in front of him had an ancient building that was twelve stories tall.

The charm was hidden between the rooms.

Although it was a similar engraving method, there were dozens of lines on each floor of the ancient building. After the twelfth floor, the number of lines increased by a hundred!

Duan Feng and Zhou Anqi had their eyes closed in pain. The veins on their temples were throbbing. They looked like they were fighting against something difficult. It was obvious that they were having a hard time visualizing the tablet.

Drops of hot sweat trickled down from their heads, and their backs were drenched.

Even Chu Lingjun felt a splitting headache when he looked at the stone tablet.

Mental exhaustion was much more painful compared to physical exhaustion!

Chu Lingjun shook his head and sighed. Then, he closed his eyes and began to visualize the tablet.

Not long after, Chu Lingjun looked the same as the other two. His forehead was covered in sweat, his temples were throbbing, and his back was drenched.

Not far away, Shan Qiuru leaned lazily against a banyan tree and observed her students.

She glanced at Chu Lingjun and the other two indifferently. Seeing that the three of them were cultivating seriously, she nodded her head in approval.

Spiritual cultivation was very tiring. The headache that appears after visualization would be equivalent to the headache of a student not sleeping for three days.

Therefore, many students often slacked off. They looked like they were cultivating, but they were actually daydreaming and secretly dozing off.

The sun was setting in the West, and the golden hour covered the sky. The afterglow stretched past the shadows on the ground and paved its way to the Visualization Garden.

Chu Lingjun, Duan Feng, and Zhou Anqi finished their assignments one after another and leaned against the tree trunk with pale faces.

The three of them were drenched, and their breathing was shallow. They look like they had the worst night of their lives.

At this moment, Zhou Anqi reached out her right hand and fumbled around in her school bag. She then took out a white porcelain jade bottle.

As soon as the cork was opened, a refreshing fragrance filled the air.

Zhou Anqi was instantly energized by the smell. She quickly drank the essence in one go.

Zhou Anqi’s pale face was immediately revitalized, and her originally dispirited spirit quickly perked up.

Duan Feng couldn’t help but look over, his eyes full of desire.

Zhou Anqi noticed Duan Feng’s gaze.

She hesitated for a moment, but she still couldn’t bear to give the treasure in her hand to Duan Feng.

Heavenly treasures that could recover and increase one’s spiritual power were several times more expensive than ordinary heavenly treasures!

She did not carelessly drink this everyday. Her family would only give her a bottle every once in a while. Every time she consumed it, she could increase her spiritual power by one or two points. The effect was very obvious.

Chu Lingjun, who was beside them, took in their expressions and smiled faintly.

‘Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and Zhou Anqi… Although you guys are pay-to-win players, you’ll have to go through me, a cheater!’
