Chapter 236: Do It
“Why? Is this the mighty toxic healer’s Weibo page?”
“We should really let those fans of Xiaopi see what an outstanding and high-quality idol should be like!”
“What should they be like? Like a lousy toxic healer?”
“Brave and courageous Jiang Xiaopi!”
“Righteous and helpful Jiang Xiaopi!”
“Jiang Xiaopi who doesn’t know his sister is beautiful!”
On a sunny and pleasant afternoon, Jiang Xiao was sitting on the b.u.t.terfly exercise machine and casually scrolling through his Weibo page on his mobile phone. While the rays of sunlight shone through the window and were cast on his face, he read the comments at the bottom of his Weibo page and felt a little smug.
After receiving the honorary certificate and medal for his brave act previously, Jiang Xiao did not hesitate to promote himself.
His results for the cultural subjects were indeed a little horrible. If Han Jiangxue got admitted to a top university in the future, Jiang Xiao reckoned that he would use the advantage of “team application” that the Awakened students enjoyed, coupled with his excellent abilities, to hopefully get himself a place in that university.
Logically speaking, the compet.i.tion schedule for the next semester was also very intensive.
It was no wonder that they had already been taught the content and syllabus for all three years of high school during Year One and Two. They spent the entire Year Three revising.
The Beijiang Province Second Wasteland Reclamation Compet.i.tion was about to begin in the first month of the second semester of Year Three.
The team that came in first place during this compet.i.tion would also be awarded 10 bonus points for the college entrance examination, which made it just as important as the Beijiang Provincial High School League.
The focus of the a.s.sessment of the two compet.i.tions was completely different. During the Second Wasteland Reclamation Compet.i.tion, teams would not be going against each other, under normal circ.u.mstances.
Due to the fact that fighting between students was prohibited during the compet.i.tion, the examiners would be focusing on the students’ ability to adapt to the unfamiliar environments of other dimensions, exploration ability, and the teams’ ability to fight against the creatures of other dimensions.
Hence, at this moment, Han Jiangxue absorbed the “Lightning Soul” Star Bead that Jiang Xiao had obtained for her with the intention to increase her combat power and abilities to fight monsters.
Perhaps, Han Jiangxue’s Star Map was resistant only towards “Dead Soul” Star Beads, for the chances of her acquiring the Star Techniques of other Star Beads were very, very high!
The truth had proven that it was indeed different to have 30 star slots, and her talent made her stand out amongst everyone.
Out of the three Lightning Soul Star Beads, two were gone in vain, and Han Jiangxue managed to acquire a Star Technique from the third one—the Chain Lightning Star Technique!
The Lightning Soul Star Bead contained two Star Techniques:
Light of Lightning (Silver Quality)
Chain Lightning (Gold Quality)
Gold Quality Star Technique!
Han Jiangxue obtained her second Gold Quality Star Technique!
When Han Jiangxue told everyone the news, her team members were all dumbfounded.
Jiang Xiao initially wanted for her to just acquire a Silver Quality Light of Lightning, but to his surprise, G.o.ddess Xue’s talent was tyrannical and overpowering. She managed to acquire the Gold Quality Chain Lightning during the peak of the Nebula Stage!
Chain Lightning was an upgraded version of Light of Lightning.
In other words, it was a bouncing Light of Lightning!
Chain Lightning increased the surface area of damage, from a single point to an entire area!
It was not like Jiang Xiao’s Bell Star Technique. The ray of medical light could be seen and tracked by the naked eye. Once the Chain Lightning started to bounce, it would be difficult for humans to react to it.
After all, Chain Lightning was a type of lightning that could be released instantaneously. When one recovered from the shock, they might just realize that the lightning had already formed a network of lightning.
However, the issue was that the Gold Quality Chain Lightning was not like Bell which complemented Star Techniques like “Imprint”.
In other words, it did not have a navigation system, and once it was launched from Han Jiangxue’s hands, it would only recognize Han Jiangxue, the owner. It wouldn’t recognize her teammates.
Besides, the Chain Lightning was also extremely fast. Except for the first shot which she could aim accurately at the opponent, Han Jiangxue would not be able to control the remaining lightning chains.
That also caused the Star Technique to only be able to launch long-range attacks on those creatures. If it were a close-range attack, the “Chain Lightning” Star Technique would attack everything within its range and its lightning net would cause everyone in the surrounding to turn numb and twitch on the ground.
In conclusion, this Gold Quality lightning-series Star Technique had the ability to create incredible, destructive damage!
However, it had a fatal flaw. With the exception of its owner, it wouldn’t recognize anything else and definitely couldn’t be used during close combat.
For example, they were now on the largest and best training ground of Jiangbin High School. It was an indoor training hall that had a complete range of equipment and was so s.p.a.cious that there was enough s.p.a.ce for the team members to stand far away from each other.
Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan were fighting each other one-on-one in the middle of the hall. Han Jiangxue wanted to launch a shot of Chain Lightning on Xia Yan but had no choice but to bear with it because she was afraid of affecting Jiang Xiao and Li Weiyi.
The ray of medical light of Silver Quality Bell would bounce a total of six times while that of the Gold Quality Chain Lightning would bounce for a total of 12 times.
Once a ray of lightning was cast, the other people in the room would be affected while Han Jiangxue remained unharmed.
In fact, when Han Jiangxue recovered from the shock, everyone in the hall had already been struck by lightning multiple times.
Han Jiangxue was a little scared, and so was Xia Yan. Ever since they exited the a.r.s.enal, Xia Yan weighed the pros and cons and made her mind up to acquire powerful output Star Techniques that could decide a team’s victory. Hence, she developed an interest in the Gold Quality Star Technique, Body of Star Power.
Xia Yan couldn’t tolerate the fact that Jiang Xiao, the member who was supposed to provide support, had gone to learn swordsmans.h.i.+p.
Was it because Jiang Xiao didn’t trust her?
No, it was the choice that Jiang Xiao had made after having gone through a genuinely close shave with death.
The G.o.dlike great healer had to learn an output technique because Xia Yan wasn’t competent or strong enough to protect him.
Xia Yan tried to absorb two Gold Quality Ape Ghoul King Star Beads in the a.r.s.enal but did not manage to do so. When she returned home, she used her connections to order some Ape Ghoul King Star Beads from Ruifeng Business Firm.
Due to the fact that the a.r.s.enals were distributed across the three northern provinces and the pros and cons of the Body of Star Power were equal, they were not highly sought after. Hence, Xia Yan managed to find some Ape Ghoul King Star Beads.
At this moment, she had already acquired Body of Star Power!
She could now summon a giant body that was put together by Star Power. If she were to launch it normally, the Body of Star Power could even reach a height of five meters.
It was not purely five meters tall.
It also expanded in width. It was like upgrading a small b.u.mper car in an amus.e.m.e.nt park to a huge armored vehicle for the military.
The change in body shape was the greatest visual impact that was the epitome of destructive power.
Han Jiangxue’s Barren Wind would appear from time to time, controlling the impatient Xia Yan. She really wanted to summon Body of Star Power, so as to make it difficult for Barren Wind to blow her away. That would also make it hard for her attacks to be interrupted.
However, the issue was that once the Body of Star Power was summoned, there would be more than just a footprint on the ground. The ground would immediately be crushed.
Actually, the indoor training hall wasn’t too high, but although Xia Yan could not touch the ceiling just by raising her hand, she at least didn’t dare to jump…
Bang!
Oh my G.o.d~
The truth has proved that this chick is really angst.
Jiang Xiao was scrolling through Weibo and retorting against an evil person.
d.a.m.n it, this fan claimed that he wanted to test me on a math question, and yet, he ended up asking for Han Jiangxue’s mobile number.
Jiang Xiao immediately grew displeased and was about to retort when he suddenly felt a tremor.
The floor of the indoor hall was crushed and a series of incessant, clicking sounds filled his ears.
The dumbfounded Jiang Xiao looked over, only to see a giant appearing in the training hall, with waves of immense Star Power flowing from her body. Xia Yan’s Body of Star Power was pieced together and even the clothes seemed lifelike.
The more terrifying thing was the giant blade that appeared in Xia Yan’s hand, which was made of condensed Star Power.
Her Body of Star Power was gigantic and the giant sword was more than five meters long. It was wide and long…
Xia Yan’s “pet.i.te” body was nestled in the heart of the giant Body of Star Power, and she was swinging her original giant steel sword!
When Xia Yan swung her sword, the gigantic Body of Star Power did the same!
The problem was that she had swung the knife diagonally upwards before swinging it downwards.
Before the giant sword of Star Power could even be swung down, it was pierced through the ceiling!
Xia Yan was dumbfounded. She was infuriated about being controlled. After fighting one-on-one with Han Jiangxue for a long time, she was forced to keep a distance because of Han Jiangxue’s control and she couldn’t even manage to touch her clothing. Xia Yan initially wanted to smack Han Jiangxue onto the ground, but to her surprise, she lifted the roof.
They were the cla.s.sic example of mischievous children who ruined things in the house all the time.
The weakness of the Body of Star Power was very obvious—it would consume a large amount of Star Power.
The problem had surfaced.
Do you want to be a king for five seconds or a coward for the rest of your life!?!
Xia Yan stared at the ceiling that she had crushed and realized that the large pieces of building materials kept falling like a house that had collapsed in an earthquake. She suddenly lowered her head, swung the giant Star Power sword, and smacked it downwards like she was swatting a fly.
I don’t care, I want to win!
Xuexue, I want to be on top today!
Do not underestimate an Awakened’s desire for victory. They train and live for victory!
Han Jiangxue watched as the large “fly-swatter” landed and opened the Sky Smasher above her head.
Bang!
A deafening sound came from the training hall of Jiangbin High School.
Next, an irregularly shaped hole appeared on the giant sword of Star Power which was swung downwards. Han Jiangxue was standing right below Sky Smasher in one piece.
Hai Tianqing scurried inside in a frenzy and happened to see Xia Yan’s Body of Star Power dissipating quickly while waves of Star Power spread outwards, making them feel like they were in a stormy ocean.
Xia Yan had also descended from the sky and was lying on the ground feebly while looking at Hai Tianqing with an awkward smile.
Hai Tianqing looked down at the ground that had shattered, before raising his head again to look up at the broken roof. He couldn’t help but purse his lips and chide. “Oh dear, Xia Yan, why did you go to such extremes during the fight?”
Xia Yan glanced at Han Jiangxue carefully while her body turned soft and numb.
However, she discovered that Han Jiangxue was frowning and seemed to be thinking about something.
On the other side, Jiang Xiao’s gloating voice, adding fuel to the fire, gave Xia Yan an unforgettable memory.
Jiang Xiao said to Han Jiangxue, “Do it! Give her a complete childhood!”
