Enlightened Mind who had only activated genetic base points but had no abilities whatsoever.
Of course, the Enlightened Mind Type was not completely useless.
They were experts at conducting research and theorizing. They could even extrapolate from certain areas.
Just like the vice-teacher, Bian Yuan, only had average abilities, but he had published more than a dozen theories.classmates and put the three Level E energy restoration elixirs he had just obtained into his pocket. He was about to leave the Reflexes Training Building.Li Cheng and the rest were very disappointed.
"What do I have to do for you to agree to fight us?" a student asked directly.
Xu Tui stopped in his tracks but did not stop.
Li Cheng's eyes lit up when he received this hint.
"Can we offer you a bottle of Level E energy restoration elixir?" Li Cheng shouted.
Xu Tui, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks. A bottle of Level E Energy Restoration Elixir was rather tempting to him.
Xu Tui did hygiene four to five times a month at the Institute 14 of the Genetic Research Institute. He only got a Level E energy restoration elixir after two to three hours. It seemed like it was good to have a bottle every battle.
Xu Tui stopped in his tracks. However, he was still a little hesitant.
Li Cheng's eyes lit up when he saw that there was a chance. Even though he had just entered college from high school, he was still influenced by what he saw and heard. Thus, he knew many things. It was just that he had never put it into practice. He quickly exchanged views with the students around him.
"Three bottles. Three bottles of Level E Energy Restoration Elixir. Fight us three times."
"Count me in. Four bottles, four times," another Extreme Branch Student added.
Xu Tui was completely moved.
Four bottles. Twenty thousand dollars. That was a major job. He had to bend his waist.
"Four bottles, four times, regardless of the outcome?"
"Alright, no problem."
"I can stop at any time if my mind power is insufficient."
"Sure."
"My attacks are a little strange. You can't hold me responsible if you are injured. I won't bear the medical expenses."
"No problem."
"But you have to compensate me if my injuries become too severe and affect my studies and training," Xu Tui said.
This made Li Cheng and the rest of the students extremely speechless. Could they be more unequal? So their injuries are injuries and his aren't?
However, their needs were clear as day. They needed it after all. They were like a bachelor who wanted to get out of being single. They would immediately rush over and suck up to a beautiful woman after being teased by her. In reality, he did not even know that he was a spare tire.
Thus, seeking equality did not exist.
"Alright, no problem. Wear a full set of protective gear. You'll have small injuries at most," Li Cheng promised through clenched teeth.
"Give me the items first before we engage in battle." Xu Tui extended his hand.
This…
Li Cheng nearly fell to the ground in shock. Could he not give his classmates a little bit of trust? He was, after all, a genius from the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College. Could he renege on his debt?
Li Cheng and the rest quickly gathered four bottles of Level E energy restoration elixirs and handed them over.
Xu Tui did not take them all. He only took two bottles first.
"Let's fight two battles first. We'll talk after the battle. Let's see if I have any strength left."
Even though Xu Tui loved money and desperately needed the Level E Energy Restoration Elixir, he had a bottomline. He had to take what was his. No more, no less. However, he would not take what he should not take. He could not be greedy!
"Let's go. Up to the fifth floor."
Xu Tui, who had just received two more bottles of Level E energy restoration elixirs, felt his pocket swell. He instantly felt extremely proud.
Of course, he was also looking forward to it.
To be honest, Xu Tui also wanted to prepare himself for the Longhu List a month later. He wanted to gain some battle experience.Chapter 84: Don't Go All-out
The fifth floor of the training building was where fourth-year students attended public lessons. However, in this Great Genetic Age, not many fourth year seniors are in the school anymore.
Thus, the public training hall occupied less than a third of the second floor.
As for the remaining area, the school had set up a relatively high-standard arena that was bulletproof on all sides. It was the kind that could withstand the shots from firearms and energy weapons. It was convenient for some students to go through extreme tests.
Li Cheng and the rest of the students from the School of Enlightened Mind arrived at Arena 4. It was a room that was 25 meters long and 15 meters wide.
They could get a teacher to be the judge. However, they had to pay a little for a private battle like this. Otherwise, if 10% of the school's students asked the teacher to be the judge, the teacher would have to do nothing but this.
"Class monitor, I'll contact a student to understand the situation. You have to be careful of Li Cheng. He had already been a Level F genetic liberator when he started the school level assessment. Now, he was a Level E genetic liberator.
"It was rumored that he had already activated four genetic ability chains. He had immense battle prowess. In the Extreme Branch, Li Cheng was already a guaranteed student on the Longhu List. He might not be in the top 10, but he was definitely in the top 100. He was very powerful.
"Based on his current battle record, not many people in the Extreme Branch Institute could defeat him.
"Based on the reaction speed just now, Li Cheng is one of the few students around the 120 millisecond mark."
Rong Youyang did not have any talents or abilities. He was a standard student from the School of Enlightened Mind. However, he was an expert at gathering information.
"Also, you have to pay attention to the person called Wang Zixuan. I don't know what level of a genetic liberator he is, but I think that he has not been determined yet. However, he had defeated Deng Wei in battle.
"He was primarily a power-type, while his speed-type abilities were supplementary. He was the complete opposite of Li Cheng. Yes, he had defeated Deng Wei once before he became a Lonely Testicle Warrior.
"It has been almost two weeks since he defeated Deng Wei. His strength must have increased greatly. You have to be careful. As for the rest, I think that it would not be difficult for you to deal with them, Class Monitor."
Xu Tui felt that the situation had become much clearer now that he had an expert in intelligence like the academician Rong Youyang. Even though he did not know everything about the person, he was not as confused as before.
"Alright. Thank you. My treat if you win."
Rong Youyang's eyes lit up. "Alright. You sure are straightforward. How are you treating me? Can I choose?"
"You can choose anything within the 50-dollar range."
"Tch!" Even though he said that with disdain, Rong Youyang made an OK gesture. Xu Tui was not allowed to go back on his word.
Xu Tui carefully put on all of his protective gear. He was deeply affected by a sentence that Professor Luo Shifeng had said during his lesson today. He only had one life. No matter how confident he was, he had to put on protective gear during any training that involved danger.
Clearly, Wang Zixuan, who had been the first to get onto the stage, also remembered that sentence.
Of course, it might also be because of the precedent of Deng Wei being a single testicle superman, but Wang Zixuan put on his jockstraps, knee guards, and even a helmet and goggles very seriously.
Clearly, they had studied the video of Xu Tui and Deng Wei's battle many times. They even had some thoughts about it.
Xu Tui slowly stepped onto the stage.
Li Cheng was not the first to go on stage. This made Xu Tui think even more highly of Li Cheng. He was a calm opponent.
"Are you guys ready?" Li Cheng, who was standing below the stage and acting as the temporary judge along with Rong Youyang, asked.
"I'm ready."
Xu Tui and Wang Zixuan nodded at the same time.
"Oh, yes, Xu Tui, do you need soybeans or marbles? We know that that is one of your abilities," Li Cheng proactively asked.
Xu Tui shook his head. "Itt will be a battle. I'll only use my Mystery Branch abilities today."
Li Cheng gave Xu Tui a thumbs-up when he heard him.
The same goes for us. The main focus of today's battle is the battle. Even though the Extreme Branch uses our full strength the moment we attack, we will not be able to continue attacking you once you show signs of losing."
On the stage, Wang Zixuan nodded. "Don't worry. I know when to stop."
"Yes, I recommend that you do not use your full strength the moment you attack," Xu Tui suddenly said.
"Why?"
Wang Zixuan was very curious. So were Li Cheng and the rest of the students. After all, the Extreme Branch unleashed speed and power. They naturally used their full strength when they attacked.
"You'll know in a while."
Xu Tui let out a mysterious smile.
Xu Tui has been improving these days. He was also improving. He was also reflecting on himself.
During his first battle with Deng Wei the other day, he had only used the mental awl at a low level.
The Xu Tui today was different. He had agreed to the battle today because he wanted to verify his theory.
"Get ready!"
"Start!"
Li Cheng gave the order, but the expected scene did not happen.
Wang Zixuan did not attack at full speed like Deng Wei did. Instead, he adopted a defensive stance and slowly approached Xu Tui.
A distance of 5 meters.
Three meters.
2.5 meters.
Clearly, the students from the Extreme Branch had come up with a way to deal with Xu Tui's Mystery Branch abilities after the video of his battle with Deng Wei was released to the public. It looked like they had come to Xu Tui to verify what they were thinking.
Wang Zixuan had not attacked when he was 2 meters away from Xu Tui.
The students from the School of Enlightened Mind, Rong Youyang, and the rest of the students from the School of Enlightened Mind clenched their fists in nervousness. During their recent classes, almost all of the teachers had said that students from the Mystery Branch had to keep their distance from their enemies during battle.
That was a safety precaution.
A student from the Extreme Branch could instantly kill a student from the Mystery Branch Institute at a distance of two meters with a burst of power. There was no doubt about it.
"Class Rep, you should retreat too!" Rong Youyang was extremely anxious. He almost roared.
Xu Tui did not move. He looked at the slowly approaching Wang Zixuan with a smile. He did not seem nervous at all.
"I'm going to attack. That's your weakness." Wang Zixuan reminded Xu Tui in a gentlemanly manner. He slowly approached Xu Tui again. He moved when he was within 1.8 meters of Xu Tui. He took a step forward and punched forward. While he was attacking, he closed in on Xu Tui with lightning speed.
Xu Tui did not move. There were no signs of defense. It was as if he was going to stand there and get beaten up.
Li Cheng was shocked. Was Xu Tui not as powerful as he looked in the video?
However, Wang Zixuan, who was attacking with all his strength, did not have that many thoughts. At this moment, all of his attention was focused on the battle. Just as he was about to take a step forward and punch forward, Wang Zixuan turned around again. This was a feint. He whipped his leg toward Xu Tui's leg at lightning speed, intending to knock him down.
It was also at this moment that Xu Tui's gaze froze.
Bang! Bang!
A gasp of pain and the sound of hitting a brick rang out.
Wang Zixuan's kick suddenly met with indescribable resistance when it was 5 centimeters away from Xu Tui's leg.
Wang Zixuan felt as though he had just kicked a rock. He must have kicked two rocks in a row. He shattered the first piece but not the second.
Wang Zixuan felt as though his bones were going to break from touching a rock with his physical body.careful later."
Li Cheng, who had observed the battle three times, finally got onto the stage after he put on his jockstraps and helmet glasses. Even though he already had some understanding of Xu Tui. However, Xu Tui had a notorious reputation from his previous battles. He had to be careful. He did not like the title of Single Testicle Superman at all.
"Get ready!"
"Start!"
Rong Youyang, who was acting as the referee, shouted.Chapter 85: Genetic Ability Field
Li Cheng, who had watched three matches in a row, did not watch them for nothing. Clearly, he had noticed the weakness of Xu Tui's Mystery Branch abilities. He could only use the momentum to injure others. He could not actively attack others.
Once they exchanged blows, Li Cheng slowly approached Xu Tui. He then followed up with dazzling feints that forced Xu Tui to dodge.
As a speed-type fighter, Li Cheng was clearly more adept at changing his moves than Wang Zixuan. There was a large amount of residual power behind Li Cheng's feint, which was between the explosive and the inactive. He could do whatever he wanted. It would instantly retract a portion of its power when it encountered Xu Tui's mental awl.
As a result, even though Li Cheng had been hit by Xu Tui's mental awls more than a dozen times, he had not suffered any serious backlash. It was just a scratch on his fist.
On the contrary, Xu Tui no longer had the composure he had when he fought the top three students.
Xu Tui did not move an inch when he was fighting Wang Zixuan and the other two. However, now, Xu Tui was forced to continuously back down by Li Cheng.
Borrowing his powerful mental senses and reflexes, Xu Tui was able to accurately dodge a portion of Li Cheng's attacks even though he was physically weaker than him.
Xu Tui did this because he realized that continuously placing mental awls consumed his mind power very quickly. Even though he could call for a halt when he ran out of mind power, he did not want to easily admit defeat, be it for the purpose of the battle or because of his youthful instincts.
It could be said that Li Cheng gave Xu Tui a lot of pressure.
Li Cheng was really powerful. However, he was also frowning. He had taken advantage of the situation today. He attacked agilely for several minutes, but he still could not touch the corner of Xu Tui's shirt.
"Isn't the speed of his reflexes a little too fast? I also have a reaction speed of 120 milliseconds. Why is his reaction so fast and accurate? that he didn't make a single mistake?"
Li Cheng was very shocked.
In reality, Li Cheng did not know that the reason Xu Tui did not make a mistake was that his powerful reflexes were complemented by his mental senses. Without mental senses, Xu Tui would have made many mistakes, no matter how fast his reflexes were.
A fast reaction did not mean that an individual could make the right choice.
However, with the observations he obtained through his mental senses, Xu Tui could make the right choice to a large extent.
After failing to capture the target after a long time, Li Cheng became a little anxious. He understood that the activation of a Mystery Branch's Mystery Branch ability was supported by his mind power. He would have won if Xu Tui had used up all of his mind power.
However, that was not the outcome he wanted. What he wanted was a battle, not a victory where he exhausted his opponent's mind power.
The student's mind power would double in the next month and a half. However, his stamina would never double.
Suddenly, Li Cheng bowed slightly. He looked like a monkey. A few popping sounds suddenly rang out from within Li Cheng's body. It was also at this moment that Li Cheng unleashed his power. He rose into the air and kicked toward Xu Tui with all four of his limbs.
In that instant, Li Cheng's actions resembled the iconic actions of an Australian kangaroo. First, he kicked Xu Tui's chest without holding back.
In a flash, two mental awls were placed in place.
Xu Tui would have a chance to counterattack and injure himself as long as Li Cheng unleashed his full strength. However, almost immediately, his gaze froze.
Xu Tui's mental awl shattered before Li Cheng's legs could reach it.
A term flashed past Xu Tui's mind—force field.
Genetic Ability Field!
At almost the same time, Li Cheng's legs stomped on Xu Tui's mental awl without touching it. He then stomped his feet fiercely onto Xu Tui's chest.
Li Cheng, Wang Zixuan, and the rest of the students had looks of anticipation on their faces. They had finally been able to torture Xu Tui after he had tortured them three times in a row.
However, in the next instant, Li Cheng's expression changed. The kicks had not even landed on Xu Tui's chest when they let out a dull thud.
There was also a layer of mental awl.
No. This was not a mental awl. It looked a little like a shield.
A mental shield.
It instantly negated most of the force behind Li Cheng's kick. However, Li Cheng did not show any signs of being discouraged. Instead, his eyes shone.
Borrowing the recoil from the invisible mental shield, Li Cheng rapidly pulled his legs back. He shifted his body from backward to forward. His arms pierced through the air, just like a mallet, as he swung them toward Xu Tui's face.
This move was one of Li Cheng's killer moves. He had just activated the Genetic Ability Chain that he had been training in. This was the first time he was displaying this move in front of someone.
Li Cheng was very confident in this move. That was because this move of his had condensed a genetic ability field. That was also the main reason he dared to go head-on against Xu Tui's mental awl. He did not believe that Xu Tui could consecutively launch more than two mental attacks in such a short time with such a tight chain of attacks. His mallet also had a genetic ability field.
Based on the attacks just now, the genetic ability field could instantly crush one of Xu Tui's mental awls. Xu Tui would have to use at least two mental awls to block an arm mallet.
However, he has used both arms now and they landed at different locations.
Xu Tui would have to set up at least four mental awls or mental shields.Li Cheng did not believe that Xu Tui could instantly place four mental awls within a few milliseconds. He would not have lost in vain if Xu Tui could really do it.
Xu Tui could not do it.
Over the past few days, Xu Tui had started training in the second level of the Mind Concentration Foundation Forging Technique, Version 4.9. He had also activated three genetic base points.
Every time he activated a genetic base point in the second level, his mind power would experience an obvious increase.
Currently, placing three mental awls in an instant was Xu Tui's limit. He could not place four. Thus, he no longer had any defenses.
It was a simple punch.
Xu Tui punched toward Li Cheng's face.
After all, after Li Cheng, who was leaping in the air, tilted his body forward, his head could not be any closer to Xu Tui. He could slap him in the face.
Li Cheng was not anxious at all when he saw that Xu Tui had turned his defense into an attack. He was very confident that he could knock Xu Tui down with his mallet and obtain victory.
However, all of Li Cheng's confidence vanished under the intense pain in his nose and face.
When Xu Tui's fist was 10 centimeters away from Li Cheng's face, Li Cheng's face suddenly became a little contorted. Blood gushed out of his nose.
At this moment, Li Cheng's arm was less than two centimeters away from Xu Tui's face.
These two centimeters were worlds apart.
It was the difference between victory and defeat.
Li Cheng, whose nose was bleeding profusely, fell from the air and landed on his butt.
The outcome was clear.
Xu Tui won.
Li Cheng was defeated. He even bled. Tears flowed out of his eyes and blood flowed out of his nose.
Seeing Li Cheng bleed, Wang Zixuan and the rest of the students quickly gathered around him. They gasped when they saw him. His injuries were not light. His nose had become a little snub. His nasal bone must have been fractured.
"Your nasal bone must have been fractured. Why did you have to…"
It was a female student from the Extreme Branch Institute. She might have been Li Cheng's admirer. She became anxious when she saw that Li Cheng was injured. She glared at Xu Tui, who was unharmed.
Li Cheng, who had been hit by a mental brick, shook his head with difficulty. He quickly stopped the girl. "No… You can't say that, help me up…"
Li Cheng stopped the bleeding after being helped up. He endured the pain and thanked Xu Tui.
"Student Xu, thank you for showing mercy."
Wang Zixuan and the female student were all shocked. Getting his nasal bone fractured was showing mercy? How badly would Li Cheng have been injured if Xu Tui had not held back?
Furthermore, they could not see how Xu Tui was going to hold back. They did not understand either.
Rong Youyang and the rest of the students from the School of Enlightened Mind were also dumbfounded.
Not only did the class monitor win, but he also showed mercy? How pitiful would Li Cheng have been if he had not shown mercy?
"This… I'm sorry. During the battle, your head was closest to me and was a vital spot. It was the best target for me to hit. I couldn't hold back…" Xu Tui was a little ashamed.
"It's the same. You would definitely be in a worse state than me if I hit you with my mallet. I still have to thank you for showing mercy." Li Cheng expressed his thanks again.
"I should. I should."
"Brother Li, why do I not understand what you are saying?" Wang Zixuan asked with a confused expression. "You are already in such a state. How did Xu Tui hold back?"
Li Cheng rubbed his collapsed nose and gestured with one hand. "When you fought Xu Tui just now, his Mystery Branch ability should be a cone-shaped ability that can deal a lot of damage, right?"
"That's right. Just one hit crippled half of my leg." Wang Zixuan still felt a little scared when he mentioned that.
"That's right. Do you see any sharp object wounds on my face? The blow that Xu Tui delivered to my face just now was a blunt attack. What if it was a sharp object? I think I've already been sent to the emergency center for emergency treatment."
The students who had been fighting Xu Tui just now finally understood. The other students were still a little confused. They did not understand what was going on.
Wang Zixuan quickly explained the situation.
To put it simply, Xu Tui's punch that had been aimed at Li Cheng had hit him from 10 centimeters away. He must have been enhanced with a Mystery Branch ability to have such a strange effect.
Xu Tui must have added a mental brick.
It took the brick smashing into Li Cheng's face to fracture his nose bone and cause it to cave in. However, there was a problem. What if Xu Tui swapped the mental brick that was attached to his fist for the powerful destructive mental awl from before?
It would not have resulted in a fractured nasal bone.
Li Cheng might have his head pierced in the face by a mental awl or be sent to the emergency center for emergency treatment.
The students from the Extreme Branch were extremely shocked when they heard Wang Zixuan's explanation.
If Xu Tui's punch had been made out of a mental awl, it would have pierced Li Cheng's face. That feeling was painful just thinking about it.
"I'll tend to my injuries first. My nasal bone is slightly fractured. It's not heavy. I'll be fine in a few days." Li Cheng's nose was bleeding profusely. He was about to leave.
However, he did not forget to remind Xu Tui before he left.
"We'll meet again in two to three weeks. How about that?" Li Cheng's bloody face was filled with anticipation. He had gained too much from his battle with Xu Tui today.
"Alright. Let's meet again then."
Xu Tui quickly agreed to the request. Just based on how carefree Li Cheng was, he could get a free battle later.
"Oh, yes, what you used just now was the genetic ability field brought about by the special genetic ability chain?" Xu Tui suddenly asked.
"Yes."
Li Cheng nodded. "I activated Genetic Base Points relating to this when I was administered with the Genetic Liberation Elixir. I've spent most of the month and a half since the school opened on this topic. You can consider this as my trump card in the Longhu List. I didn't expect to lose to you first. I'm going for my treatment first. Let's meet again next time."
"Alright."
Li Cheng and the rest of the Extreme Branch students left in a hurry. However, Xu Tui was deep in thought. He did not expect to witness the genetic ability field described in the book so soon.
