Chapter 268 Double Ability

Ye Xuan looked at Su Mengli and said, “Mengli, what do you think?”

Su Mengli sweetly replied, “I’ll follow your lead, wherever you go, I’ll go.”

Ye Xuan immediately said, “Alright, then let’s go to the capital, buy a new villa in the capital.”

Ye Xuan had plenty of spirit stones, and after the rebirth of spiritual energy, spirit stones were more valuable than cash. Therefore, Ye Xuan could buy a house wherever he wanted. Money was not an issue!

Lin Xu naturally did not object. Ye Xuan and Su Mengli had made significant contributions during their time in the Magic City.

They had defeated the Three-Legged Golden Crow, killed the Kunpeng King, and thoroughly investigated the power of the East Sea’s mutated beasts.

With such knowledge, Lin Xu would find it much easier to handle future situations. Ye Xuan and Su Mengli could indeed go to the capital to continue their growth.

At that moment, Long Hanjie said, “Dean Lin, does the Magic City also have Awakening Spirit Spheres? I gained a lot from the secret realm this time and want to test the development of my abilities.”

Lin Xu immediately replied, “No problem, since everyone is here, let’s check our individual talent progress together.”

Subsequently, the group followed Lin Xu to the research room, where a large advanced Awakening Spirit Sphere was placed.

Long Hanjie was the first to step forward and placed his hand on the large Awakening Spirit Sphere.

After a moment, a voice sounded from the Awakening Spirit Sphere, “Ranked on the Dragon List, Long Hanjie, SSS-class Ancestral Dragon True Body, ability development 19%.”

Long Hanjie had abundant resources and decent talent. Initially, his ability progress was slightly behind Su Mengli’s. However, after obtaining the Dragon Ball, Long Hanjie’s ability progress surged, almost catching up to Su Mengli.

After the test, Long Hanjie smiled proudly and said to Ye Xuan, “Brother, you have to work hard next. Although your ability is unique, bridging the gap between SS and SSS is not that easy. Without external help, your ability development needs to exceed 50% to match my strength.”

Ye Xuan chuckled and replied, “Is that so? I don’t think so.”

Long Hanjie calmly said, “You, kid, are just stubborn. Currently, among the younger generation, I should be unmatched.”

As Long Hanjie finished speaking, another system prompt sounded from the Awakening Spirit Sphere, “Ranked on the Dragon List, Su Mengli, SSS-class Flame Red Lotus, ability development 21%.”

This statement was like a slap in the face to Long Hanjie.

Xia Mo also sneered, “And he’s considered the top of the younger generation? Mengli could easily defeat you!”

Flame Red Lotus and Ancestral Dragon True Body were abilities of the same class. Although the two had not clashed, their abilities were not far apart. The ability development directly determined their strength.

Su Mengli’s ability development was two points higher than Long Hanjie’s, indicating she was likely stronger than him.

Not to mention, Su Mengli also had the Nano Battle Armor’s support. In a real fight, Long Hanjie probably wouldn’t be a match for Su Mengli.

Long Hanjie was astonished, “How is this possible? During my time in the capital, I used the latest gravity training room to enhance my cultivation efficiency. How did you two progress faster than me?”

Ye Xuan patted Long Hanjie’s shoulder and said, “There’s no way around it; this is a difference in talent.”

Soon, Zhou Yun and Xia Mo also tested their abilities. Both were at the SS class, with Zhou Yun’s ability development at over 30% and Xia Mo’s at over 50%. Xia Mo’s progress far exceeded that of an ordinary person.

This was also related to Xia Mo’s abilities. Ordinary people could only increase their ability development by absorbing spirit stones.

Xia Mo, on the other hand, gained a boost in ability development each time her team helped her cosplay as different characters, resulting in rapid progress.

Therefore, in the previous exchange competition, Long Hanjie was defeated by Xia Mo, and even Ye Xuan only won against Xia Mo with the help of external items.

Xia Mo’s abilities improved quickly and had diverse effects. Although she was at the SS class, in the early stages, she was not inferior to SSS-class abilities.

After everyone finished testing, it was finally Ye Xuan’s turn.

Lin Xu smiled and said, “Ye Xuan, you mentioned before that seeing the death of the same kind would touch your soul, leading to the evolution of your talent. I actually believe you now. During the chaos in the Magic City before, there were no shortage of deaths. Did your talent evolve again? Haha.”

Long Hanjie laughed, “How is that possible? Isn’t talent determined at birth? How could it evolve?”

Lin Xu explained, “Ye Xuan is indeed quite special. Perhaps his talent is growth-oriented, showing different talents at different ages. However, this growth should have stabilized by the age of eighteen and not change further. Continuing to grow would be exaggerated, reaching SSS class.”

Listening to Long Hanjie and Lin Xu’s conversation, Ye Xuan smiled and placed his hand on the Awakening Spirit Sphere.

After a moment, a prompt sounded from the Awakening Spirit Sphere, “Ranked on the Dragon List, Ye Xuan, first talent SSS-class Heavenly Saint Body, ability development 11%; second talent SS-class Electromagnetic Manipulation, ability development 33%.”

As the prompt came out, the entire research room fell into silence. Everyone was stunned, except for Su Mengli. As Ye Xuan’s wife, she was aware of everything about Ye Xuan, including the advancement of his talents and the addition of a second talent.

After a moment, Long Hanjie stuttered, “Is this a joke? You’re also SSS class now? And you even have an additional SS-class talent. Others have one, why do you have two?”

Ye Xuan looked at Long Hanjie helplessly and said, “Personal talent, there’s nothing I can do. Dean Lin, I didn’t lie to you. Seeing the people of China bleeding and dying, my heart was bleeding along with them. But I couldn’t do anything. Awakening individuals contribute to society but don’t receive the respect they deserve. I could only watch them bleed. I used their sacrifice as a lesson to make people realize how to treat Awakened individuals. Although they lost their lives, they truly resolved the conflict between Awakened individuals and ordinary people. Their sacrifice was worth it. Watching them sacrifice touched me deeply, not only advancing my original talent but also adding a second talent.”
