Chapter 1 Psionic Testing Ground

Zhou Jing was bare-chested, with several sensors attached to his muscles, performing simple tests under the guidance of the faculty.

After a short while, the sound of messy footsteps approached rapidly, and Li Yun and his group hurried over.

"Zhou Jing, you said your psionic ability suddenly changed? What exactly happened?"

Li Yun asked curiously.

"Well, recently I've been practicing the basic tempering method of Superpower Martial Arts every day, and I've gradually noticed a strange feeling in my body after each practice, a kind of hot sensation. Last night, after I finished a set as usual, I suddenly fainted. When I woke up, I found that my physical fitness had skyrocketed. I don't know what happened..."

Zhou Jing's tone was honest, and a touch of youthful confusion appeared on his face, just right.

The mentor group looked at each other, their eyes full of astonishment.

Li Yun suppressed his surprise and instructed, "Test the changes in your psionic ability first, and we'll see what's going on."

"Okay, teacher."

Zhou Jing obediently responded and went through the test items one by one, quickly obtaining the parameters of his current physical fitness.

Li Yun and a group of mentors gathered around the test results, hissing and gasping from time to time. Some people looked at Zhou Jing with shocked expressions.

"It's incredible that he crossed such a big stage so casually, and his body control is hardly affected..."

Li Yun muttered to himself, looking over frequently.

Zhou Jing seemed nervous from being watched, like a patient waiting for a doctor's diagnosis, looking uneasy and couldn't help but ask:

"Um... do you know what happened to me?"

Hearing this, Li Yun finally came back to his senses, his eyes flashing with excitement as he looked Zhou Jing up and down, as if he had found a treasure.

"I think I know..."

Li Yun cleared his throat and said seriously:

"Your situation should be a psionic mutation... no, it's an evolution!"

"Evolution?!"

Zhou Jing was taken aback.

"Yes!"

Li Yun nodded steadily and explained patiently: "The psionic abilities awakened innately occasionally mutate, but the results are not always good. Negative mutations are called degradation, and positive mutations are called evolution. Once evolved, the basic strength of the ability will increase significantly.

There are generally four ways to achieve evolution. One is simply relying on luck. In principle, every psionic ability can mutate, but the probability is very slim. The second is to keep exercising the psionic ability until there is a chance of it happening. The third is being stimulated by external forces, such as injecting potions. The fourth is the reason for the psionic ability itself, and it still has untapped potential, with extremely high growth potential."

Zhou Jing blinked, his face full of curiosity: "Which one am I?"

"Obviously, the second one doesn't fit your situation, so it can only be the first, third, or fourth. So either you are lucky, or your short-term martial arts practice just stimulated your psionic ability, or the awakened ability still hides special qualities that cannot be tested, and you have a genius aptitude!"

Li Yun made a firm judgment.

"I see, teacher knows so much."

Zhou Jing seemed embarrassed by the praise, scratched his head, and offered a clumsy flattery.

Li Yun's mouth curved up, then disappeared, and said with a smile: "In short, this is a good thing for you. No matter what the situation is, your future growth potential has improved. Although it is still a physical enhancement ability, I think you are qualified to apply for an A-level potential assessment."

Hearing this, Zhou Jing blinked, suddenly raised his hand in front of his chest, palm facing the sky.

"Speaking of which... I seem to have more than just physical ability."

After speaking, a burst of intense electrical noise suddenly sounded.

Zzzzzz——Crackling!

The electric light suddenly brightened, condensing in the palm of his hand, illuminating the surprised faces.

"C-can also discharge electricity?"

Everyone's eyes widened.

Li Yun was also taken aback and murmured, "Is this a new ability generated by mutation, or energy generated by itself after the strength of the body has greatly increased?"

Everyone quickly pulled Zhou Jing and tested the specific parameters of his discharge ability again, such as discharge power, attack distance, duration, and so on.

Zhou Jing was very cooperative and did everything one by one.

After the test, the mentor group surrounded his test results and started a heated discussion. Zhou Jing watched from the side, feeling calm and nodding secretly.

'Looks like the effect is good. The mentors really think my psionic ability has mutated...'

He had to accept targeted training every day, and he couldn't hide the changes in his abilities. He had already thought about it and made up a reason to report it actively.

With his "new student" status as a cover, acting confused, the mentors wouldn't suspect him. He gave himself 80 points for his acting just now, feeling that he performed well.

He didn't intend to hide the discharge ability brought about by the four enhancements. He would definitely use it in the future. Instead of thinking of a reason later, it would be better to lump it all into the excuse of this "mutation".

Besides, hiding it wouldn't do him any good. If he told the mentor group, they could tailor a training plan for him and try to help him improve his discharge ability.

Although there was no accelerated cultivation in his main body, and the efficiency was not as good as the Star Realm Apostle, Zhou Jing did not expect to completely improve his strength through Apostle transformation, after all, plane disconnections occasionally occur.

Just because he had the Apostle transformation, he didn't underestimate the training effect of the main world. The main world's mature psionic ability development courses had cultivated many superhumans, and his main body could also benefit from it.

After a while, Li Yun and others finally finished their discussion and walked over.

"Zhou Jing, your psionic ability has changed a lot. You need to come to train more often recently to practice your control. We will also formulate a new training plan for you. In particular, the discharge ability can be well polished. We all agree that the potential is extraordinary.

In addition, regarding your potential assessment, we will apply for A-level for you, but it will be awarded to you after the freshmen competition, so that you can continue to maintain B-level now. This can play a trick to confuse your opponents, allowing them to make wrong decisions in their troop deployment."

"I understand, no problem."

Zhou Jing nodded. Since their reasons were solid, he would naturally cooperate.

At this time, Deng Yunjie suddenly spoke, his tone interested:

"I am very optimistic about you, and I look forward to you showing your demeanor in the freshmen competition."

"Uh, thank you."

Zhou Jing responded politely.

Li Yun gave another instruction before letting Zhou Jing leave the testing ground. He also took many mentors back to the office to continue the meeting that hadn't been finished before.

Everyone took their seats.

Li Yun looked around and suddenly spoke:

"I've decided, let Zhou Jing participate in the arena competition. I just looked at the parameters of his mutated physical fitness. He has already entered the first echelon, and he is even one of the best in the first echelon. If his control and skills haven't changed, he might be a trump card and shine!"

Hearing this, everyone was slightly stunned, and then nodded in agreement, no one objected.

Although Zhou Jing's combat skills were amazing, he could only maneuver against strong enemies before because his physical fitness was not too strong, so the fault tolerance rate was low.

But unexpectedly, his ability mutated, and his physical strength jumped up all of a sudden. In this way, the shortcoming of low fault tolerance was made up for.

Everyone still felt that Zhou Jing's fighting style was suitable for abusing vegetables... but after his ability evolved, the range of "vegetables" suddenly expanded!

Li Yun tapped the table and made a decision: "It depends on the result of this internal sparring. If he performs as well as we imagined, we can also consider him as the core!"

...

Three days later.

There were still half a month before the freshmen competition. Today was the day of internal sparring in the department. Fifty participating freshmen from the Wangguan Department competed with each other for the mentor group to understand their strength and judge the importance of each student in the competition in half a month, providing ideas for troop deployment.

Wangguan Department Hall, Combat Drill Field.

Today was a holiday, and all students had no classes all day. Fifty Wangguan participating freshmen came to the internal sparring venue early, forming small groups of twos and threes, chatting noisily, waiting for the mentors to organize.

Zhou Jing moved a chair and sat aside, holding a bag of dried fruit, eating snacks while waiting.

Tang Liu followed him, constantly reaching out to take Zhou Jing's snacks, chattering endlessly.

"Hmph, there will only be one protagonist today, and that is me, Tang Liu! I can beat all of them!"

Tang Liu chewed on the dried fruit, speaking vaguely, but without lowering his voice at all, without concealing his arrogance, causing many newly selected freshmen to glare at him.

"These little kids are really asking for a beating!"

"What's the arrogance for? Don't cry and look for your mother when you get beaten on stage."

Someone snorted coldly.

Tang Liu wiped his neck with his fingers and sneered, "Am I arrogant? With me here, you people can only compete for second place. You are all my stepping stones. There is only one outcome, and that is to be beaten by me!"

"Damn, my hands are itchy!"

"These specially selected ones are too arrogant!"

Many people were annoyed.

Zhou Jing couldn't help covering his face, regretting teasing the chuunibyou teenager at the beginning. If he had known, he wouldn't have talked to him.

He just wanted to sit far away from the one surnamed Tang now, so as not to be implicated in the evaluation.

After Tang Liu finished speaking harshly, he turned to look at Zhou Jing, patted his chest and grinned, "You don't have to be afraid. If you are afraid of pain, just admit defeat. Anyway, I will cover you in the future. You are going to be my little brother. Just watch me show my power."

"Ah yes, yes, yes."

Zhou Jing nodded weakly, grabbed a handful of hard dried fruit and stuffed it into Tang Liu's mouth, serving as a snack and helping him grind his teeth.

Finally, it was quiet around him, and Zhou Jing was in the mood to carefully look at everyone present.

Soon, he found that many of the other forty selected freshmen were frequently casting "malicious" glances at him.

——It can't be said to be malice, it can only be said to be eager to try the enthusiasm for challenge.

Zhou Jing curled his lips, understanding the thoughts of these freshmen.

Even without Tang Liu's arrogant statement, most of these newly selected freshmen were unconvinced and wanted to defeat the ten specially selected ones to prove their strength.

The mentality was nothing more than "Why were you specially selected, where are we inferior?", It was not surprising to have this idea.

In addition, defeating the ten specially selected ones would allow them to step on others to take the top position, and maybe they could replace each other to get further key training from the department, so these freshmen were full of energy, which was a real benefit.

And he, as the only B-level among the ten specially selected ones, was naturally regarded as the most mixed one. These people wanted to pinch him, the only "soft persimmon" among the ten.

'Alas, everyone thinks I'm the easiest to bully, who told me I'm still B-level now...'

Zhou Jing shook his head, his mood as calm as an ancient well.

Just then, Wu Fan suddenly walked over, looked at Zhou Jing, and said lightly:

"I look forward to fighting you."

Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, then nodded in response: "Okay."

Wu Fan hummed and left without saying anything more.

Tang Liu swallowed the dried fruit, his suspicious gaze wandering between the two, his tone strange:

"Why does he want to fight you? Is he also very weak?"

"...Very humorous. You should use this way of speaking to communicate with people more in the future, everyone will definitely like you."

Zhou Jing gave a thumbs up in encouragement.

At this time, Li Yun and other mentors finally arrived at the venue and organized everyone.

"You are the participants in the freshmen competition in half a month. Today is to test everyone's strength. There are not too many rules... I won't say any more nonsense. Except that you can't challenge the same person repeatedly, everyone can keep going on stage to challenge others, no matter if you win or lose, as long as you have the strength. The more you fight, the better..."

Before Li Yun finished speaking, a figure flashed by so fast that it was almost impossible to capture.

Swoosh!

In the next instant, Tang Liu used super-speed movement and appeared on the stage in the blink of an eye, pointing his finger

"I, Tang Liu, am here, who dares to fight me?!"

As soon as the voice fell, the venue was silent.

The yin-yang head teenager stood on the stage, arrogantly pointing at the forty-nine people below the stage who were stunned, with a mentor and referee with a "what are you doing" expression next to him, like a world-famous painting.

The picture was so beautiful that Zhou Jing's whole body was covered in goosebumps, his toes were tense, and he almost dug out a three-bedroom apartment on the spot.
