Chapter 248: Potential List To Nurture (1)

Li Xiaoyin shouted for a long time, but no one accepted the challenge. She could only leave the stage helplessly, muttering that she had not had enough yet.

She returned to the stands and accepted the enthusiastic gazes of the crowd as she swaggered back to Zhou Jing and the others.

“Impressive, impressive. Sister Yin, I’m impressed.” Xu Lingyun quickly went up and massaged Li Xiaoyin’s shoulders like a lackey.

Li Xiaoyin raised her head and snorted, “I didn’t want to fight him at first, but he said that I was afraid. Can I bear this grievance? I just awakened my superpower.”

“Girl, you’re a real man.” Zhang Xiao gave her a thumbs up.

Zhou Jing shook his head, “I hope he can recover before he gets on the ship.”

Everyone came up to flatter her. They had long known that Li Xiaoyin was very strong, so they were not that surprised.

Compared to Zhou Jing’s unexpected combat strength, Li Xiaoyin’s performance was more deserving of everyone’s praise.

Because no one dared to challenge Li Xiaoyin, Wang Wu judged it as an all-kill. The team from West Sea City directly locked onto the winner’s position.

However, after she left the stage, the spar did not end… Although there was no prize, there were still many Awakened who wanted to participate in the event and wanted to show off.

However, with Zhou Jing, Li Xiaoyin, and Lin Kun’s fierce battle as a comparison, the subsequent battles seemed lukewarm and more like an entertainment show.

Round after round, the rookies fought each other. Even Xu Lingyun and Zhang Xiao went up to play and wrestled with the other Supers’ assistants in public. They actually fought quite well.

When He Changqing went on stage, everyone’s spirits were lifted. His superpower was not as shocking as Li Xiaoyin’s, nor was it as violent as Lin Kun’s. However, it was still a little shocking. It was not simple.

As for the last Class S potential, Wu Fan, he did not go on stage at all, so no one could force him.

It was not until midnight that the private sparring session ended.

Everyone had basically figured out who was worth paying attention to among the supernatural immigrants on the same ship.

In everyone’s eyes, the most worthy people to befriend were Li Xiaoyin and Zhou Jing. Their abilities were outstanding, and they were in cahoots. It was twice the result with half the effort to befriend them.

Zhou Jing had seen and remembered the superpowers of many people.

Because Li Xiaoyin had been considered to have beaten everyone, the West Sea City team had obtained the final victory. Many of their fellow hometown supers felt honored. They straightened their backs and felt proud, accepting the sour congratulations from the other city teams.

In the end, Wang Wu said a few words on the stage and announced that the event was over. Only then did everyone disperse reluctantly and return to their rooms to rest. They lay on the bed and tossed and turned, their minds filled with all kinds of novel superpowers.

…

Wang Wu returned to his room, took out his mobile computer, and opened a document named “Potential List of Candidates to Nurture”.

There were already the files of Li Xiaoyin, Lin Kun, He Changqing, and Wu Fan.

Wang Wu sat at the table and recalled the scene just now. He finally made up his mind and pulled out Zhou Jing’s file and placed it in this document.

As a direct officer of the Supers Bureau and a mentor at the Supers Academy, while Wang Wu served as the supervisor of an immigration spaceship, he also had another mission. It was to conduct an early inspection for the Supers Bureau and the academy to see if there were any more worthy targets.

Zhou Jing’s performance left a deep impression on Wang Wu.

It could be said that among so many Awakened, this was the only one who caught his eye.

After thinking about it, Wang Wu decided to put Zhou Jing, who had Class C potential, on the list of people to be nurtured. This list would be reported to a higher level for further evaluation.

Wang Wu pondered for a while before entering the recommendation under Zhou Jing’s file.

“Although this person has ordinary physical enhancement abilities, his combat talent is outstanding. His ability is outstanding, and he can defeat opponents with stronger superpowers. Moreover, he has extremely outstanding talent in cold weapons and is suitable to be nurtured in the direction of martial arts. Because his combat ability is outstanding, the cost of nurturing him is higher.

In addition, this person’s superpower is not rare. When it was activated, it did not cause much of a commotion, and its effect is not too unique. It was mainly used to strengthen one’s physical fitness, so it can serve as a good disguise in a complicated environment. It was suitable for integrating into some other dimensions with a larger strength system, so the chances of a conflict of strength is lower.

Recommended employment direction—Enhanced soldiers, Supers Bureau guards, elite agents, alternate world explorers.”

…

After the friendly competition, the relationship between the hundreds of Supers in the 13 cities had become much closer.

In the next few days, everyone received a final training on the things to take note of during the voyage. They also took the chance to walk around and befriend each other.

Under He Changqing’s organization, the hundreds of people even formed a large group chat. Every day, there would be people chatting and bragging inside.

The age gap between the Awakened was quite large, from ten-year-old children to middle-aged and old people in their fifties, causing a serious generation gap. As a result, some of the people within the group lacked common topics.

However, most of the Awakened were still in the range of youth to adulthood… Other than the huge difference in expressions, they could still chat normally.

After Zhou Jing displayed his strength, his status and authority in the group clearly increased. His popularity was obviously better, and the number of people who came to add him as a friend increased greatly. Soon, there was a large number of new avatars in his contact list, and he estimated that his connections had expanded by quite a bit.

Of course, the most popular person was still Li Xiaoyin. She was outgoing, capable, and quite beautiful. After spending a few days together, many people also started to call her “Sister Yin”.

In a few days, Lin Kun had also recovered from his injuries.

The medical level of the Supers Bureau was quite advanced, and he also had a certain degree of self-healing ability. Although it could not reach the level of a superpower, he was still much better than ordinary people.

Lin Kun actually had a goal, which was to be invincible among his peers. Therefore, he was passionate about challenges and had plenty of martial values.

However, after he recovered from his injuries, he did not challenge Li Xiaoyin again. He immediately kept a low profile… He learned from his mistakes. He liked to fight, not be tortured.

Lin Kun had to admit that he was a little afraid whenever he caught sight of Li Xiaoyin now.

Before he was confident of winning, he did not want to provoke this woman anymore.

In any case, after entering school, everyone would really start training and cultivating. It would not be too late to fight back when they became stronger… In any case, this was how Lin Kun comforted himself, mentally adding Li Xiaoyin to his future challenge list.

However, unlike his fear of Li Xiaoyin, Lin Kun was indignant towards Zhou Jing… Of course, he was not so easily convinced by someone whose physical fitness was far inferior to his.

He felt that as long as he performed well, he had a chance of winning.

However, after calming down and reviewing the battle, Lin Kun also felt that Zhou Jing was indeed something. His control of his abilities was far inferior to Zhou Jing’s, and he was very unaccustomed to dealing with such an outstanding player with outstanding skills and agile movements.

Therefore, although he was unwilling to accept it, Lin Kun did not continue pestering him. He only added Zhou Jing to the list of future challenges as well. The order of challenges was even higher than Li Xiaoyin’s. He decided to train his control skills after entering the school before taking revenge.

He believed that as long as he made up for the shortcomings in technique and control, he would not be played around anymore.

At that time, wouldn’t he be able to handle an opponent like Zhou Jing easily?

He would let this fool know what cruelty was!

First, he would defeat Zhou Jing, then he would crush Li Xiaoyin. Lin Kun felt that with his strength, he could almost do whatever he wanted in his cohort… Among the Supers who took other spaceships, even if there were fierce people comparable to these two, there would not be many in his opinion.

On the other hand, because Zhou Jing’s performance was outstanding, he was invited by Wang Wu to test his superpower again.

Because he had yet to convert the subsequent Mutant Blood Warrior abilities from the ability library, the parameters did not change much.

However, the Supers Bureau had added a new entry to his file. They felt that Zhou Jing’s awakened ability had also strengthened his combat talent. They decided to reapply the file and submit it to a higher level for evaluation. The results would be out in about half a month.

According to the information revealed by Wang Wu, Zhou Jing knew that his potential would most likely be transferred to Class B in the future. At that time, his various subsidies and treatment would also increase by a notch. It was a substantial benefit brought about by displaying his strength.

The monthly subsidy for Class C Potential was 6,200 Nassau, while Class B was 9,000 Nassau. It was quite a considerable increase.

It had been a month since he had been certified as a Super, and he had received a subsidy once. In addition to the 120,000 Nassau he had earned from buying and giving Zhang Xiao’s assistant slot, he now had nearly 130,000 in his account. It could be considered a small sum of money in his bank.

Through his asking around, Zhou Jing discovered that although the Supers Academy was a compulsory education and did not charge tuition, some life services and advancement programs were not free. There were many ways to spend money… This was probably the Supers Bureau’s way of collecting subsidies for their supers.

It was said that some of the Supers Academy’s projects were very expensive. He was not sure if the amount of money he got was even enough to cover.

Unfortunately, Zhang Xiao had migrated to a new planet with them. Without the constant support of his family’s funds, he was no longer a rich second-generation heir who was not short of money.

Fortunately, there was still Li Xiaoyin, this “future rich lady”… Zhou Jing had already asked around, and found out that the monthly subsidy for a Class SS was 72,000 Nassau, which was more than the annual expenses of many families. There was even a low-interest loan limit of 3 million Nassau, which was enviable.

As it was wisely commented by Xu Lingyun, it was too bad that Li Xiaoyin was his ‘brother’. If it were any other girl, he would have long pestered her in attempts to woo her and be a house husband instead…

Of course, his best friends knew him too well. They knew that although this person liked to talk nonsense, he was actually an innocent boy. Most of his comments were only said in jest.

In the past few days at the base, Zhou Jing had met new friends every day, trained his own abilities, and taught his three best friends close combat experience. His life was fulfilling.

Unfortunately, after checking the interface a few times every day, it showed that the Astral Realm could not be projected. Therefore, he could only sleep obediently every night, his heart empty.

In this tense and expectant atmosphere, ten days passed in a flash. The day to board the ship had finally arrived.
