Trash-Picking Talent Is Weak? But I Pick Up Traits Chapter 26 : Chapter 26

Chapter 26: Weapon Traits Can Be Upgraded Too?! A Peak Sixth-Tier Weapon! The Thunderfla Frenzy Saber!!

“Supre Will, upgrade my True Qi to the Fourth Revolution!”

Xiao Xuan directly issued the command to the system in his mind.

【Command accepted!!】

BOOM!!

In an instant, a terrifying surge of True Qi poured into every single cell in Xiao Xuan’s body. At that very mont, his True Qi began to expand and condense wildly!

Very soon, his True Qi reached the Third Revolution, and a few seconds later, it surged straight to the Fourth Revolution.

At the sa ti, Xiao Xuan, who had beco a bolt of lightning, saw his speed rise explosively once again.

“His strength increased again? Or did Xiao Xuan simply not use his full power before?”

On the high platform, Liu Feng’s pupils contracted the mont he saw this.

In an instant, he understood the reason. Most likely, Xiao Xuan had held back earlier because he did not want to reduce that E-Class testing device to scrap tal.

For his aura to double in an instant was simply impossible.

After all, Xiao Xuan still had not advanced to the Grandmaster level.

But if that was really the case, then it was truly terrifying.

Did that an Xiao Xuan’s combat-power multiplier had now risen to a horrifying 350,000 tis?

That standard had already fully reached the level of a Peak Silver talent.

If Xiao Xuan also had a Purple cultivation talent, then he would truly be no different from a Peak Silver talent!

After all, most people with Silver Traits generally only had Purple cultivation talents as well.

“Professor, we can go see the president now!”

In the next instant, Xiao Xuan appeared before Liu Feng and Su Qingwu like a bolt of lightning.

“Student Xiao Xuan, you were actually still hiding your strength! This old man was truly shocked!”

“The president has been waiting for you. Let us go!”

Looking at Xiao Xuan, Liu Feng could not help sighing in amazent.

The next mont, an imnse tide of True Qi burst from his body!

That True Qi instantly enveloped Su Qingwu and Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan felt the intensity of that True Qi and was imdiately startled inwardly.

The strength of that True Qi was at least a thousand tis greater than his current level.

So this was the power of a Martial Emperor-level expert?

It seed that he was still quite far from the Martial Emperor Realm.

Then again, that made sense. To beco a Martial Emperor-level expert, one had to possess at least two or three Purple Traits, or else a single Silver Trait.

On top of that, the cultivation art they practiced would be at least seventh-tier, so the combat-power bonuses were naturally no joke.

Wrapped in that True Qi, Xiao Xuan and Su Qingwu rose into the sky together with Liu Feng and sped toward a tall building in the center of Nanhai University.

Before long, the two of them arrived at the Main Building and saw a middle-aged man clad in black battle armor, radiating a powerful aura.

At that mont, the man stood with his back to the three of them, overlooking all of Nanhai City.

He was the president of Nanhai University: Nan Rufeng!

At the sa ti, he was also the strongest expert in Shanhe Province, the military’s highest commander, and a Martial Thearch with the rank of General!

After a thousand years of developnt, the human race’s cultivation system had already expanded into no fewer than ten levels.

From the lowest Martial Apprentice, to Body Tempering, then the Vitality Realm and the Innate Realm, and above those ca the Grandmaster Realm, the Great Grandmaster Realm, Martial King, Martial Emperor, Martial Venerable, Martial Thearch, and Martial Saint!

Starting from the Martial King Realm, every major realm increase ant a thousandfold gap in base Vitality alone.

If one also factored in the gap created by Traits, cultivation arts, and the like, then a difference of two major realms reaching tens of thousands of tis was perfectly normal.

One could easily imagine just how unimaginably far the Martial Thearch Realm was from the current Xiao Xuan.

And this Martial Thearch was a supre expert with Gold Traits.

Perhaps he even had more than one Gold Trait!

That was the truly terrifying part.

“President, Xiao Xuan and Su Qingwu have arrived!”

After making the announcent, Liu Feng respectfully gave a military salute and stepped aside.

Hearing that, Nan Rufeng slowly turned around.

“Xiao Xuan, you are Mu Xiying’s younger brother, correct?”

Looking at Xiao Xuan, Nan Rufeng smiled slightly.

“Yes, President. But we are not blood-related. I was adopted by Sister Ying’s parents.”

Xiao Xuan nodded slightly as he spoke.

“I know. Your parents were martyrs who died for Huaxia.”

“These past years have not been easy on you.”

Nan Rufeng sighed softly as he spoke.

“You flatter , President. I have lived quite well these past years, and all of this happened because of those ferocious beasts.”

Xiao Xuan answered seriously.

Whether those were polite words or words from the heart, they were words he had to say.

“Yes. Over the years, more and more caverns have appeared. Fortunately, countless martial artists of the human race have held the line with their lives. Otherwise, humanity would have fallen long ago.”

“But although it may seem as though humanity has suppressed the caverns for now, that is only the surface of things.

“Perhaps one day, a powerful cavern beyond humanity’s control will suddenly appear, and when that happens, humanity may once again enter a countdown to extinction!!”

After Nan Rufeng finished speaking, his eyes flickered slightly, as though he had thought of sothing.

When Xiao Xuan saw the way Nan Rufeng looked, his heart also stirred.

According to rumor, Nan Rufeng had been born right when the Great Cataclysm began a thousand years ago.

Not only him, but most of humanity’s top experts had co from that era.

They had witnessed humanity almost being wiped out again and again, and it was by their own strength that they had pulled humanity back from the brink.

That was why they were even more vigilant toward the countless caverns.

But soon after, Nan Rufeng smiled.

“When you get old, you just start talking too much. You are all still young, and these matters are not yet things you need to worry about.

“I called you here mainly because there is sothing I want to discuss with you!”

Nan Rufeng looked at Xiao Xuan and Su Qingwu with a smile.

“Please go ahead, President.”

Xiao Xuan nodded.

Su Qingwu hurriedly nodded as well.

Normally, she was carefree and bold, but at this mont, she was as obedient as a well-behaved little girl.

“You will soon be going to Imperial Capital University for further study. Once you complete your training and graduate, your future achievents will be at least at the level of Martial Emperor, perhaps even Martial Venerable!

“So I hope that after you finish your studies, you will return to protect Shanhe Province.

“Whether you choose to stay in Nanhai City, return to your ho city, or go to any other city, I still hope you will co back!

“Shanhe Province itself lies in a remote region. Its population is not especially large, and it has relatively few experts.

“That is why its death rate is among the higher ones out of the hundreds of provinces!

“We truly need geniuses like you to return.

“If you do co back, then although the benefits may not compare to staying in the Imperial Capital, it will definitely be better than in other provinces!”

Nan Rufeng spoke with great seriousness as he looked at Xiao Xuan and Su Qingwu.

“You joke, President. Even if you had not said it, I still would have co back!

“The city where I was born, Blackwater City, may not be a great city, but it is the place where I grew up.

“If I have the strength, then naturally I want to protect it. Everyone I know is there!!”

When Xiao Xuan heard that, he smiled and answered.

“Sa here. My mom has told since I was little that I am not allowed to marry away from ho!”

Su Qingwu imdiately raised her hand and spoke, but the mont she said it, her face instantly turned red.

What on earth had she just said?

As expected, the mont those words ca out, Xiao Xuan and the others all could not help laughing.

“Hahaha, that is naturally for the best!”

Nan Rufeng also could not help laughing at Su Qingwu’s remark.

“Very well. As representatives of Shanhe Province in this Hundred-Province Genius Tournant, all of you may freely choose one weapon and one set of battle armor!

“I have already sent redemption cards to the top ten. You may go directly to the Weapons Complex and exchange them for any equipnt you like.

“After all, you are representing Shanhe Province. Naturally, we cannot let others look down on us!

“These weapons are a gift, so even if you later find a better future elsewhere and do not return, you do not need to feel any burden over it!

“You only need to rember that you will always be people of Shanhe Province!”

Nan Rufeng looked at Xiao Xuan and Su Qingwu and smiled.

“Thank you, President!”

“Thank you, President!!”

Xiao Xuan and Su Qingwu thanked him, then the two of them bade Nan Rufeng farewell and left the president’s office under Liu Feng’s guidance.

Very soon, under Liu Feng’s lead, the two arrived at Nanhai University’s Weapons Complex.

The mont he entered, Xiao Xuan saw that the walls were lined with countless storage compartnts!

At the sa ti, chanical arms of various sizes were working everywhere.

They pulled out storage compartnts one by one and accurately delivered them to the students purchasing weapons.

【Ding! You have entered Nanhai University’s Weapons Complex. You have obtained 1 Peak Sixth-Tier Weapon Exchange Card and 1 Peak Sixth-Tier Battle Armor Exchange Card!

You may redeem any one weapon below Peak Sixth-Tier, as well as one set of Peak Sixth-Tier battle armor!】

At the sa ti, a prompt sounded from his Smartwatch. The mont Xiao Xuan heard it, his eyes lit up.

“Peak Sixth-Tier? Even the cheapest of these things are worth over a hundred million!

“And battle armor costs even more, at least seven or eight hundred million!

“They are just giving them to for free?”

Xiao Xuan could not help clicking his tongue in wonder.

But when he rembered that the E-Class testing device he had damaged was also worth over a hundred million, he felt much better about it.

In a massive province with a total population of ten billion, a hundred million was not actually all that frightening a figure.

And the amount of wealth controlled by top experts was even more terrifying.

This kind of weapon, one that only a peak Martial King could normally use, ant that he would not need to replace it for quite a while!

“Wow! Even mid fifth-tier weapons and battle armor can be exchanged for free. We really hit the jackpot, Xiao Xuan!”

Su Qingwu also spoke excitedly to Xiao Xuan.

When Xiao Xuan heard that, he imdiately understood.

Sure enough, not everyone had access to Peak Sixth-Tier equipnt.

Of course, even if they were given one, they probably would not be able to lift it.

The material density of Peak Sixth-Tier weapons was extrely high.

Although they were only the size of an ordinary weapon, their weight was asured in at least hundreds of thousands of tons!

And that was only the base weight!

To use them, one had to rely on pure physical strength, not explosive power.

Even Xiao Xuan, at his current level, only had a base strength of forty thousand tons.

Fortunately, he had the Bloodthirsty Demonic Art, which had raised his physical strength to around two hundred and fifty thousand tons!

Even with two hundred and fifty thousand tons of raw strength, using a weapon that weighed twenty thousand tons would still feel strenuous.

It was like how an ordinary person could lift sothing weighing over a hundred pounds, but would still feel that a ten-pound blade was heavy in the hand.

Not to ntion a Peak Sixth-Tier weapon, which weighed at least several hundred thousand tons.

Even so, Xiao Xuan did not hesitate. He directly chose a Peak Sixth-Tier long saber with lightning and fire attributes.

Its na was even sowhat similar to one of his martial techniques.

“The Thunderfla Frenzy Saber!!”

As for battle armor, he exchanged for a set of lightning-and-fire-attributed nanotech battle armor.

Very soon, a chanical arm hundreds of ters long carried over two massive alloy safes.

BOOM!! BOOM!!

As the tal cases slowly landed on the ground, a deafening crash rang out.

That huge noise instantly attracted the attention of quite a few people!

Without another word, Xiao Xuan directly opened the first tal case.

At once, a purple-black long saber appeared before his eyes. The blade was engraved with countless mysterious runes!

There was also a scabbard beside it.

“Hiss... Peak Sixth-Tier? The president is really giving you extraordinary treatnt!”

Liu Feng could not help exclaiming when he saw it.

Even he only barely used a seventh-tier weapon.

And that had taken him over a hundred years of earnings to acquire.

“Peak Sixth-Tier? Wuwu, the gap between people is getting bigger and bigger, Xiao Xuan!”

The mont Su Qingwu saw it, her face filled with envy.

“I am not even sure whether I can lift it. This weapon weighs two hundred thousand tons!”

Xiao Xuan said helplessly, then could not resist gripping the long saber and using all his strength.

In an instant, a blood-red aura surged from his body.

That terrifying aura caused the surrounding students’ expressions to change at once.

“What a terrifying aura! How can soone in the Innate Realm have such a powerful presence?”

“That aura is probably already at the level of our university’s Top Hundred Ranking, right? But that kid looks like he has only just started his first year!”

“I heard that a monster showed up in this year’s Special Admissions Exam and blew up an E-Class testing device! Could it be this guy?”

“What the hell? Soone blew up an E-Class testing device in the Special Admissions Exam? Are you serious?”

“Of course it is true. My grandaunt’s husband’s older brother is one of the university’s E-Class maintenance engineers! He is the one responsible for repairing that machine!”

“Hiss... Then with that kind of strength, he really could enter the Top Hundred Ranking!”

…………

…………

At that mont, the Thunderfla Frenzy Saber had already been slowly lifted by Xiao Xuan!

This weapon was a little too heavy.

Feeling the terrifying weight of the saber, Xiao Xuan could not help sucking in a cold breath.

It was already this heavy just to lift it. As for actually wielding it, that was practically impossible!

“This is forcing to upgrade Strength Enhancent!”

Xiao Xuan was speechless.

He could not exactly use Gigantification, could he? Once he used Gigantification, this weapon would no longer be suitable for him.

Xiao Xuan smiled helplessly.

“High-level weapons like this usually have a Weight Change Trait. You only need to imprint your DNA into it, and then you will be able to control the weapon’s Traits!

“And it will not have just one Trait, either.

“But in most cases, they are only Green.

“After all, for a weapon to develop Traits is far more difficult than it is for humans.

“If a weapon of this level had Blue Traits as well, then the price would rise by tenfold, or even a hundredfold.”

At that mont, Liu Feng spoke from the side.

“There is such a thing? How do I imprint my DNA into it?”

Xiao Xuan was imdiately surprised. This was his first ti hearing that weapons could have Traits.

“You make it acknowledge you with blood, of course! Those scenes in novels actually do have a basis.

“Those so-called formations are basically the sa as our human programming.

“The underlying logic is simply different.”

“That is also why, when the Great Cataclysm first began, so many programrs changed professions and beca formation masters!”

Liu Feng smiled and explained.

The mont he heard that, Xiao Xuan was speechless.

Still, he directly used the weapon to lightly nick his finger.

PFFT!!

In an instant, his finger was cut open, and a large amount of blood spilled onto the saber.

Strangely enough, in the next mont, the weapon actually absorbed the blood.

At that instant, Xiao Xuan imdiately felt a strange sense of blood connection with it!

But just then, a prompt from the Supre Will appeared directly before his eyes.

【Ding… Congratulations. You have equipped the weapon: Thunderfla Frenzy Saber (Peak Sixth-Tier! Green)】

However, when Xiao Xuan saw the weapon attributes before his eyes, his pupils instantly contracted!

“Wait, the Traits on a weapon can be upgraded too?!”
