My ability pool is superior to others

Chapter 1 Do you have any clues?

The spacious preparation hall was filled with a lively atmosphere.

Thousands of students arrived at the designated location in an orderly manner under the guidance of the staff.

Chen Li, who was sitting at the supervision desk, suddenly noticed a young man standing in the front row.

The boy was about seventeen or eighteen years old, but he was already handsome and had extraordinary appearance. His eyes, which were free of any emotion, made him even more outstanding.

"You have such an outstanding student hidden?" Chen Li turned and joked to the middle-aged man next to him.

Liang Fuzhong didn't understand, so he asked in a flattering tone, "I wonder which one Director Chen is talking about?"

Chen Li pointed in a direction and said, "Even though a life-and-death battle is imminent, he still looks calm and composed. I think he has everything planned out."

Liang Fuzhong looked in the direction of the finger and immediately smiled awkwardly: "Uh, Director, you don't know, that student fell into the water yesterday, and when he was pulled out, he was not breathing. We finally managed to rescue him, but he has been in this state ever since. He doesn't even know how to answer questions."

"Is he stupid?" The smile on Chen Li's face turned rather playful.

Although they are called students, they are essentially reservists, and skills like swimming have naturally been trained.

"Yeah, I originally thought he wouldn't participate in this death match."

Liang Fuzhong said this and shook his head with a little regret.

"In fact, even if he hadn't fallen into the water, it would be difficult for him to get any good results. The main reason is that he has a problem here..." Liang Fuzhong pointed to his head and added: "There is a problem."

"How to say?"

"Have you ever heard of Extreme Lack of Aggression Syndrome, Director?"

"I do know some so-called aggressive personalities."

Chen Li was surprised and asked, "It sounds like the exact opposite?"

Liang Fuzhong nodded. "This is one of the achievements of the Neurological Medicine Research Institute in recent years. There may have been similar patients in the past, but this is the first case of this type of disease since we really knew about it. Dean Li even proposed to name this disease after this student."

"Interesting. So he can't make an attacking move?"

"It is said that his brain has been over-secreting serotonin and other emotion-suppressing chemicals, which prevents him from having negative emotions such as anger."

"But this child has healthy hands and feet. Not to mention hitting people, it's impossible that he can't even resist, right?" Chen Li did not hide his surprise.

Liang Fuzhong sighed.

"People's behavior will always follow the arrangements of the body, and this cannot be overcome by willpower."

Chen Li nodded.

He probably understands.

Just like most people think that a blind person sees darkness in front of his eyes.

But that is not the case.

What a blind person "sees" is actually emptiness, there is nothing. Having never seen anything, they have no concept of color.

"Director, the death match is about to begin." Although they were chatting, Liang Fuzhong did not forget their work.

"I hope this kid can stay in the death arena for a while longer."

Chen Li looked at the student and sighed faintly, "What a pity."

……

【Ding! 】

[Transmission begins...]

……

[Death Arena Number: 87****0023]

[User initial name: (unavailable)]

[Title: None]

[Talent: 8]

[Current points: 0]

[Current ranking: 500/500]

[Ability: No yet]

[Attention! The first round of ability pool has been opened and can be selected]

Lu Bai woke up from his dazed state.

A series of data appeared in front of his retina, and the entire panel looked a little simple.

A refreshing mountain breeze mixed with the fragrance of earth blew past, diverting his attention away from the translucent panel.

Lu Bai looked around and saw students in dark green school uniforms walking out of the teaching building behind him in twos and threes.

The boys on the football field were kicking the ball hard, and a few students were chatting with books under the shade of the trees.

The loudspeaker in the teaching building added youthful and melodious background music to this picture.

School?

I crossed?

Lu Bai frowned slightly, silently calming his inner turmoil.

As for the data panel in front of his retina, he accepted it very quickly. After all, the system should be standard for time travelers. At most, he had some doubts about the so-called "talent" column.

He hesitated for a moment, and tentatively said to himself: Choose.

The next second, the translucent panel was blocked by three divided images, as if someone had pasted three gold-rimmed cards on his face.

[Unexpected Wealth (Gold): Immediately obtain currency with a current world purchasing power of 10 million.]

【Super-speed regeneration (gold): Provides extremely strong cellular level self-healing effect. 】

[Mighty King (Gold): Current strength doubled.]

As if a blessing had come to his mind, Lu Bai instantly realized that he could choose one from these three abilities.

After realizing this, Lu Bai gave up the ability of [Unexpected Wealth] first. Ten million is a huge sum of money in modern society, but compared with supernatural powers, it is not as attractive.

As for [Strong Power] and [Super Speed ​​Regeneration], they both seem pretty good based on the descriptions.

Too bad you can only choose one.

Lu Bai sighed quietly: "Anyway, there will be no problem in improving my ability to save my life..."

His psychological endurance is still good. Regardless of whether he can return to his own world or not, he must first figure out his current situation.

He exited the data panel, stretched out his hands and moved them around, assessing his physical condition.

Choosing [Super-Speed ​​Regeneration] did not cause him to change into someone like the Hulk. He still looked like an ordinary high school student, which made Lu Bai feel relieved.

Because he stayed there too long, students on both sides cast curious glances at Lu Bai from time to time, as if wondering what this boy was doing blocking the exit of the teaching building.

However, at this moment, a young man with freckles on his face walked out of a classroom behind Lu Bai with an excited look on his face.

Especially when he noticed Lu Bai, his eyes lit up.

The freckled boy trotted over to Lu Bai, his voice filled with undisguised joy: "Great, I didn't expect that we would be able to enter the same deathmatch."

What's this thing called?

Lu Bai could find an inexplicable sense of familiarity with the freckled boy, but he just couldn't remember who he was.

"Come on, let's find a safe place to discuss this."

The freckled boy hugged Lu Bai familiarly, and the two of them left the teaching building arm in arm like a pair of good friends.

As they walked, the freckled boy asked in a low voice: "Xiao Lu, what ability did you choose?"

No, wait a minute...

Lu Bai was a little dazed.

Can everyone choose abilities?
So this panel isn't its own exclusive system?

Seeing Lu Bai remain silent, the freckled boy showed a slight hint of impatience, and then forced a smile. "Don't be so nervous. Although the teacher said that we must always be alert in the death arena, we are classmates. Besides, this is our first death match, and there is no life-threatening danger."

The freckled boy patted Lu Bai's shoulder casually, and then added: "I know your situation too. Do you want to wander around the death arena alone without someone to protect you?"

The other party repeatedly mentioned the death duel. Combined with the context, it is obvious that he is using the death duel to refer to the current world.

"you're right."

Lu Bai nodded obediently.

He could sense that the freckled boy's attitude towards him was not as friendly as he appeared to be.

But no matter what this guy wants to do, getting information from him is always better than groping around like a headless fly.

Thinking of this, Lu Bai said casually: "I chose an ability to increase calculation speed."

For some reason, the freckled boy did not doubt this, as if he did not think Lu Bai would lie to him.

He frowned and sighed to himself: "It's not very useful."

As the two were talking, they had unknowingly come to the back side of the playground. In a corner formed by an old banyan tree and a wall, there were a few bad boys smoking.

The group of bad boys noticed the arrival of the two unfamiliar faces and left after putting out their few remaining cigarettes.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Bai and the freckled boy were the only ones left in the corner.

After confirming that no one else would come over in the short term, the freckled boy let go of Lu Bai's hand and blocked the route of departure with his body.

Lu Bai seemed to know nothing about this.

Seeing this, the freckled boy sighed pretentiously and said, "Xiao Lu, you can't blame me for this. You are a burden in the first place, and you chose a useless ability, so..."

While the freckled boy was speaking, he pulled out an eight-sided Han sword-shaped long sword from somewhere, like a magic trick, and pointed the sword at Lu Bai: "Why don't you just give me yours? I can take care of you when I get back."

Looking at the sword blade flashing coldly under the sunlight.

Lu Bai raised his eyebrows unconsciously.

Frankly speaking, even though the tip of the sword was less than half a meter away from him, he didn't feel nervous at all.

The way the freckled boy held the sword made it easy for him to tell that he was a layman in swordsmanship, and his temperament didn't seem like he had ever killed anyone.

When it comes to cold weapons, knowing how to use them and not knowing how to use them are two completely different things.

As for a freckled boy like this, even without the so-called [super-speed regeneration], Lu Bai was confident that the other party could not hurt him. The only thing he needed to be wary of was probably the Eight-sided Han Sword itself.

Therefore, Lu Bai asked sincerely: "Can we chat for a while longer?"

"What?!" The freckled boy was stunned.

He came to his senses, reached out his hand with a bad look and tried to push Lu Bai, but his hand failed.

Staring at Lu Bai who took a step back, the freckled boy's face darkened completely and threatened: "Try to move again."

Upon hearing this, Lu Bai stretched out his right foot and drew an arc on the ground.

"Good good."

The freckled boy gritted his teeth, paused for a moment, and then cursed: "You are looking for death!"

Lu Bai was not frightened.

What concerned him was that the other party's behavior did not seem like a reaction to provocation, but more like a weak response after some stereotype was shattered.

The freckled boy actually did what he said he would do, and slashed at Lu Bai on the head with a sword.

The sword's trajectory is too obvious, and it is not difficult for a normal person to dodge it as long as he remains calm.

Sa!
Accompanied by the sound of breaking air, Lu Bai nimbly dodged to the side.

Then he quickly reached out and pressed the hilt of the sword, allowing part of the blade to penetrate into the mud, and then kicked the freckled boy in the waist.

The whole set of actions was completed in one go. During this process, he even had extra energy to figure out why the other party reacted so excessively.

Lu Bai didn't have time to ponder for too long, as the freckled boy who was kicked to the ground gave part of the answer.

He opened his mouth slightly, stared at Lu Bai with wide eyes, and asked subconsciously: "How is it possible, your disease..."

"Sickness? What disease?"

Lu Bai pulled out the long sword stuck in the mud, walked to the freckled boy, and chuckled unconsciously: "Is there a risk of recovery?"

The freckled boy swallowed, his eyes full of disbelief.

The other party's reaction did not seem fake, and Lu Bai deliberately added a teasing remark purely to cover up his own doubts.

Could it be that I am still a patient?

I feel quite healthy.

"not talking anymore?"

Lu Bai weighed the sword, and then skillfully placed it on the freckled boy's neck: "Do you want to try whether my sword is sharp?"

What is your sword?!

Hearing this, the freckled boy almost vomited blood.

He looked at Lu Bai angrily: "What else do you want me to say?"

Pa~pa~
Lu Bai tapped the freckled boy on the shoulder with the back of his sword, making no effort to hide his threat.

"I ask you questions and you answer them. If you hesitate for even a moment, I'll chop off your head."

The boy turned his head away and said nothing, as if he agreed.

Lu Bai didn't mind the other party showing some emotions: "Name?"

"Fandin."

"age?"

"eighteen."

Fan Ding's expression became more and more ugly.

In his opinion, Lu Bai's "asking questions knowing the answer" was clearly humiliating him.

"How many people are there in our class?"

"enough!"

Fan Ding took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, and sneered at Lu Bai: "Just kill me if you have the guts."

"Look at you, you're in a hurry."

A smile appeared on Lu Bai's face.

It was a pure smile that came from the heart and was almost impossible to fake.

In the final analysis, it was because Lu Bai did not have the slightest intention to kill at this moment, and he did not even have the thought of beating Fan Ding up.

He was a little surprised when his temper became so good.

After rubbing Fan Ding's head to comfort him, Lu Bai decided to change his approach and find out the information he wanted from the side.

However, before he could figure out how to start, his thoughts were interrupted by screams coming from the playground.

"what!!!"

The scream was like a signal, triggering a chain reaction.

Screams rang out one after another from everywhere, breaking the peace of the campus.

If you listen carefully, you can hear a roar like that of a wild beast.

Lu Bai looked in the direction where the sound came from, but unfortunately he was blocked by several thick old banyan trees and could not see what was happening on the playground.

He blinked and turned to look at Fan Ding, who was also confused.

"Do you have any idea?"
