Chapter 257: Chapter 222: The Power of Divine Spirit Root (Thanks to ‘nudge’ for the leader’s reward)
Just as Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao each activated their divine spirit root combat suits.
Huang Zichou continued, “During today’s three exams, all dicines are unrestricted.”
“After all, the body’s tolerance to dicine, whether it will damage potential or foundation due to its use… these are all within the scope of today’s exam.”
After saying this, the ground around them gently shook as rows of dicine cabinets rose, various types of dications erging before Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao.
Huang Zichou said, “You can freely take and use any of these dicines.”
“Of course, if you brought your own dicine and want to use it, that’s also fine.”
Upon saying this, Huang Zichou thought to himself, “It’s a relief we’re at this round, with only two people left. Including the money collected this ti, today should actually turn a profit.”
Zhang Yu, looking at the rows of dicine cabinets, already had gleaming eyes.
Although his current mana and physical strength had both reached their limits, he could still enhance his Dao Heart using dicine.
Recalling the past three months of frugality, spending all his money on cultivation techniques, and not having indulged in using dicine for a long ti, Zhang Yu looked at the dicine cabinets with increasing hunger.
anwhile, Huang Zichou continued introducing the divine spirit roots on both of them: “The divine spirit root you’re using today is called the Mystic Armor Spirit Root, mass-produced for military combat.”
“Replenishing mana and stamina is just the most basic function of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root.”
“Next, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root will officially enter test mode.”
“During the test mode, the stronger your physical performance, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root will continuously increase its power.”
“Although this combat suit’s additional functions have been removed, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root is preserved intact, and as the power increases, it will showcase more functions one by one, during which so phenona may occur, so don’t be alard…”
Listening to Huang Zichou’s words, Zhang Yu thought to himself, “This sounds… It feels like a demonstration of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root’s functions?”
Just as Zhang Yu was listening carefully to Huang Zichou’s explanation, he suddenly heard a loud boom, and a shockwave unexpectedly erupted from Ye Lingxiao next to him.
Zhang Yu casually waved away the incoming shockwave and turned to look in Ye Lingxiao’s direction.
He saw Ye Lingxiao at that mont, with gusts of wind swirling around, creating a warped phenonon in the air around him, and the power percentage on his sleeve had remarkably risen to 10%.
Huang Zichou smiled slightly and said to Ye Lingxiao, “You’ve grasped it quite quickly, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root’s test mode is about continually increasing the operational power of the body.”
“The more you exert force, the more you circulate energy, the more you explode, the more you can stimulate the power increase of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root.”
The reason Ye Lingxiao could grasp this point so quickly was that, as a descendant of the Ye Family, he was not entirely ignorant of divine spirit roots.
Although, as a high school student, he did not have the authority to use divine spirit roots, many people he knew belonged to governntal departnts and possessed the authority to use divine spirit roots.
He had seen others using divine spirit roots since he was a child and had long known what needed to be done in the test mode of the divine spirit root.
While he appeared to be standing still just now, in reality, his whole body’s blood and energy were surging, with each muscle exerting itself, indeed causing the power of the divine spirit root to rise.
Huang Zichou continued, “When the power of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root reaches 10%, it can activate the Spiritual chanism Field, transmitting physical strength through the Spiritual chanism to strike targets across the air.”
After speaking, Huang Zichou nodded towards Ye Lingxiao, saying, “You can demonstrate.”
Ye Lingxiao obediently struck out with a palm.
A palm seemingly struck out plainly without mana operation, yet it was like launching an air cannon.
As the palm force swiftly transmitted through the Spiritual chanism, it ford a shockwave, slowly dissipating only tens of ters away.
Watching this scene, Zhang Yu thought to himself, “Damn, it’s increasingly like an advertisent.”
Huang Zichou continued, “You all keep it up, rember, in test mode, only by fully mobilizing your body’s strength and circulating the body can the divine spirit root enhance operational efficiency.”
On the other side, as Ye Lingxiao released the tension from his muscles, his body rapidly expanded, suddenly towering like a small giant, with blood and energy surging violently, releasing waves of heat.
As he operated like this, sure enough, the power of the divine spirit root increased, with the number on his sleeve suddenly soaring to 18.12%.
In contrast, Zhang Yu made no movent, rather leisurely going to the dicine cabinet to start selecting dicines that could enhance his Dao Heart.
In the communication network of the True God, Huang Zichou recalled the difference between Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao from the previous round and said, “Has this kid given up? Planning just to get so dicine?”
Another True God said, “Judging from their performance in the last exam, the gap in their cultivation ti over the past year is definitely significant. It’s quite normal if he doesn’t have confidence; after all, there’s another chance next year.”
anwhile, from the audience, “Crying Laughing Emoji” said, “Mom, has Ye Lingxiao’s opponent given up?”
“Smiling Emoji” casually replied, “After all, Ye Lingxiao is the strongest high school student of our level. It’s quite normal for his opponent to give up.”
On the other end of the audience, a viewer with a cat avatar looked at Zhang Yu and snorted, “Backing out without a fight? Not willing to risk even a bit of failure? No matter how talented, our Wanfa University doesn’t need such people.”
Next to the cat avatar, representing Wanfa University, was soone with a husky avatar, who laughed and said, “You finance departnt people are all prodigies. You can afford to say no, but our civil engineering departnt still welcos such students.”
“And haven’t you seen the records? The two of them are a year apart. I rather fancy this Zhang Yu. When he takes the exam again next year, he should be able to pass the Foundation Establishnt certificate. In the future, he might be good at moving mountains and filling seas, building a Heavenly Palace, or even renovating and repairing Kunxu.”
The cat avatar pursed his lips and looked at Ye Lingxiao, saying, “This talent is indeed remarkable, but unfortunately, his potential on the Immortal Path is still a bit lacking. Wanting to join my finance departnt is still just a little short.”
The husky avatar advised from the side, “Your standards are too high. He’s already the heir of the richest family of this level, and you still think his Immortal Path potential isn’t enough. Then who at this level has enough Immortal Path potential?”
The cat avatar proudly said, “The finance departnt is one of the strongest departnts in our school; how can the admissions not be ticulously selected?”
“Besides, we haven’t accepted any students from level 1 for over fifty years. If it weren’t for the school leaders asking to take a look, do you think I would be watching this Foundation Establishnt exam of this level?”
The husky avatar smiled without saying anything. He also understood that the finance departnt valued Immortal Path potential the most, and those who entered had their eyes high above. Aside from a few other departnts at Wanfa University, which also stood at the pinnacle, other departnts in their eyes might just be security, workers, and service staff.
After all, even within the sa university, the gap between departnts is like being separated by a mountain. Even the toilets of the finance departnt are probably more fragrant than the dormitories of their civil engineering departnt.
At this mont, the cat avatar suddenly said, “Old Dog, want to bet? I bet on Ye Lingxiao’s victory.”
The husky avatar knew this finance departnt guy’s gambling addiction had kicked in again, and he shook his head in annoyance, “I don’t bet money.”
And just as more people on the scene were focusing their attention on Ye Lingxiao.
Zhang Yu, in front of the dicine cabinet, looked at the potion in his hand with a burst of joy.
“Hahaha, these True Gods didn’t cut corners. These are the good dicines I usually can’t afford to buy.”
Although there were no top-tier items like last ti’s Dao Solution Ti-Release Capsules, Mana ridian Injections, or Simulated Phoenix Functional Elents, these were still second-tier goods, making Zhang Yu increasingly excited.
Grabbing a Dao Heart potion worth tens of thousands casually, Zhang Yu imdiately gulped it down, feeling the dicinal power absorbed through his internal organs rapidly transform into a cool breeze rushing to his crown chakra.
Monts later, he felt his brain seed to be layered with laws, his thinking beca even clearer, the ntal thod’s operation more rapid, and the residual cow he envisioned in his mind beca clearer.
At this mont, a burst of light ca from the examination venue.
Zhang Yu turned his head and saw that Ye Lingxiao was enveloped in a layer of spiritual light, like a circular protective shield, covering him from head to toe.
The numbers on Ye Lingxiao’s sleeve, showing the Divine Spirit Root’s power, had also risen to 30.05%.
Beside him, Huang Zichou said, “If the power of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root can reach above 30%, it can activate a layer of Mystic Armor Shield, forming a protective shield with Mana, which can almost ignore threats below military grade.”
At the sa ti, one could see strange patterns continuously appearing within Ye Lingxiao’s flexing muscles, transforming into pieces of dragon scale patterns, which was the Level 10 expert-level technique—Great Heavenly Dragon Divine Power.
Next, his fascia continued to expand, his skin began to turn blue-black, having launched the Level 10 expert-level protective technique—Elephant Demon Tendon Transformation.
With each successive technique activated within Ye Lingxiao’s body, the power of the Divine Spirit Root continued to rise swiftly, soon breaking through the 40% mark.
He looked at Zhang Yu in the distance, who was still taking dicine, and thought to himself, “Not starting yet? Has he really given up?”
Thinking of such an easy withdrawal from his opponent, Ye Lingxiao felt a sense of boredom rising in his heart, similar to the feeling of having prepared ticulously for three months only for his opponent to lay down without much effort on his part.
At this mont, Zhang Yu felt a slight pain in his brain, realizing he’d reached the limit with the Dao Heart potion.
Level 8 (89.5%) → Level 8 (89.6%)
“Oh? Did the Dao Heart grow just right?”
Wiping his mouth, Zhang Yu rubbed his stomach and thought to himself, “Seven-tenths full is almost enough, let’s stop taking dicine for the day.”
He put down the dicine bottle and walked back to the center of the venue step by step, while with each step Zhang Yu took, his muscles trembled.
This was Zhang Yu doing a simple warm-up by exercising his muscles, bones, and internal organs.
As he ward up, the power of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root began to rise gradually.
