Chapter 23: Chapter 23: The Terrifying Skill Talent Chapter 23: Chapter 23: The Terrifying Skill Talent Ten minutes later, a City Guard brought in Yang Jun, who was waiting outside the Secret Realm.
“Director Wang?!” Yang Jun was already confused about what was happening.
Now seeing his boss, Guangchuan Education Bureau Director Wang Haiping, waiting for him here, he was even more baffled.
“Director Wang, Captain Xiao, I wonder what’s the matter?”
Yang Jun thought to himself, could it be that something had happened to Chen Jiujun during the trial?
Xiao Yong said, “Teacher Yang, don’t be nervous.
Director Wang just has a few questions about a student from your school named Su Yuan.”
“Su Yuan?” Yang Jun was stunned.
It wasn’t about Chen Jiujun?
Su Yuan had just awakened.
How did he catch the attention of these two?
Wang Haiping, a Shining Star Card Master, had already calmed his emotions in a few minutes.
He seemed calm as he spoke to Yang Jun.
“Teacher Yang, how much do you know about Su Yuan from your Guangchuan Fourth Middle School?
Besides what’s on the screen, tell me all the other information you know about him, in detail!”
Yang Jun also saw the information about Su Yuan displayed on the monitor.
Although he did not understand why Director Wang was suddenly so concerned about Su Yuan, it did not affect his answers.
Yang Jun respectfully said, “Director Wang, this Su Yuan just happens to be a student in the class I teach.
I am quite familiar with him.”
Wang Haiping’s eyes brightened, and he said eagerly, “Good!
Tell me everything!”
Yang Jun pondered slightly and said, “Speaking of Su Yuan’s story, it is quite inspiring and full of hardships.
Su Yuan’s family conditions are average, but he has been very diligent and hardworking in both cultivation and studies.
In his first year of high school, he broke through to the Star Apprentice Sixth Stage during the second semester.
He was the first student in Guangchuan Fourth Middle School to reach the Star Apprentice Sixth Stage, catching the attention of the entire school.
Everyone thought he had great talent and believed he might awaken a Master Soul Card, becoming a super genius overnight.”
At this point, Yang Jun shook his head and sighed.
“Yet, to everyone’s surprise, the situation took a sharp turn after that.
Su Yuan failed to awaken using the Soul Awakening Card.
For a year, he couldn’t awaken, and even his cultivation progress was hindered.
But heaven never bars one’s way.
Just this past winter break, he finally succeeded in awakening and breaking through, managing to participate in this combined trial…”
“You said he successfully awakened during the winter break?!” Wang Haiping suddenly interrupted Yang Jun loudly, his face full of disbelief.
Xiao Yong had the same expression.
Yang Jun was taken aback by their reaction and quickly said, “Yes, although this child hadn’t awakened for a long time, his studies were very diligent.
His academic performance had always been in the top three of his grade.
I also paid a lot of attention to him.
I was very happy for him when he finally awakened at the last minute.
He said he used the Soul Awakening Card at the beginning of winter break to complete his awakening.”
When Yang Jun finished speaking, the command center fell silent.
Everyone was too shocked to speak, and the silence was palpable.
It was well known that before awakening, no one could embed or use any Star Cards except for the Soul Awakening Card, let alone practice to improve their skill levels.
So Su Yuan managed to practice Steel Flame Finger to the Perfect Level in less than a month?
Ɲονǥᴑ.ƈο
One month to reach the Perfect Level?
What a terrifying cultivation speed for a skill!
Although it was just a white skill, could a human really achieve this!
Even Xiao Yong and the other City Guards began to question the world.
But Wang Haiping’s face, changing from shock to an uncontrollable joy, could not conceal his feelings!
After all, as a Shining Star Level expert, Wang Haiping had seen and knew much more.
At this moment, as if sensing the wonder of the people around him, Wang Haiping tried to suppress his inner excitement and said,
“My friends, don’t doubt yourselves.
Guangchuan City is just a small third-level city in Great Flame Country without even a Star Power Academy.
Great Flame Country is vast, and Blue Sea Star is huge beyond belief.
There are many kinds of geniuses in this world that we have never seen or imagined.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yong and the others nodded slightly.
Yes, the world is so big.
There would always be geniuses beyond ordinary people’s understanding.
Being able to encounter one was indeed very fortunate.
Wang Haiping took a deep breath and continued, “However, to my knowledge, only one person has ever managed to cultivate a skill to the Perfect Level within a month…”
Before Wang Haiping could reveal the answer, Xiao Yong suddenly thought of something, his expression changing dramatically.
“Is it…
your superior?!”
“Yes,” Wang Haiping’s face showed a look of reverence, “Lord Huangfu!”
The Director of the Education Bureau of Great Flame Country, Huangfu Qi!
He was known as the strongest genius in the Great Flame for the past century, the person with the strongest skill cultivation talent in the whole Great Flame.
It was said that during his youth, while still in the academy, he had once practiced a green skill to the Perfect Level within a week, a performance even more impressive than Su Yuan’s.
Of course, at that time, Huangfu Qi was already a Silver Star Card Master, while Su Yuan was only at the Star Apprentice Eighth Stage.
Regardless, Su Yuan’s displayed skill cultivation talent was at least on par with that of “Little Huangfu Qi.”
Even though Wang Haiping and Xiao Yong discussed so much, the City Guards in the command center, while shocked and questioning their understanding of life, listened and understood.
Only Yang Jun was still confused about what was happening.
Yang Jun swallowed and tentatively asked, “Um…
Director Wang, Captain Xiao, what’s going on?
Did something happen with Su Yuan?”
Wang Haiping laughed heartily without caring about his image, patting Yang Jun on the shoulder.
“Your Guangchuan Fourth Middle School has produced a genius!
Captain Xiao, show him the video.”
Xiao Yong complied and showed Yang Jun the video of Su Yuan using the Perfect Steel Flame Finger to kill the Shadow Leopard in one strike.
This time, Yang Jun was the one too shocked to speak…
In the Secret Realm, Su Yuan, unaware of the attention he had attracted, prepared to head to the next red area after his rest.
The red areas were limited to seven.
If he didn’t hurry, someone else might kill all the Bronze-level Star Beasts, leaving him no beasts to hunt, even if he had the strength.
Su Yuan walked while looking at the locator map.
“This time it’s farther.
The nearest red area is already in the central region of the Secret Realm.
It will take at least half a day to get there.
It’s already getting late.
In such a dense forest, it will be difficult to move at night.
The earliest I can get there is tomorrow morning.
Additionally, there are three red areas in the central part of the Secret Realm.
So, students aiming to improve their ranking by hunting Bronze-level Star Beasts will likely head towards the center, leading to a high chance of encounters during the hunt…
Seems they want to create competition for us?”
Su Yuan put away the locator, his expression unchanged.
Clear Wind swirled around his feet, speeding him up as he headed rapidly for the next red area.
If there’s competition, then so be it.
There’s nothing to fear, as long as you speak with strength.
Moreover, hunting Star Beasts alone is not as interesting as competing with the geniuses of Guangchuan City, right?
