The cat stared blankly at Xue Jing, its three-lobed mouth opening and closing as if it were murmuring something.
The cat's tail swayed gently behind it, and the platinum tail ring began to shine with a dazzling light.
Then, circles of light emanated from the cat's body, transforming into a human-shaped, cat-eared, black-haired girl.
Xue Jing opened the panel and glanced at it, his gaze lingering on the prompt "Generate Faith and Worship".
He reached out and patted Ning Fengwan's head, and said with a smile:
"How does it feel?"
[Divine matter detected; absorbing divinity...]
The moment Ning Fengwan was touched, a notification popped up on the panel, indicating that her divinity was increasing at a rate of several points per second.
The girl didn't reply. Instead, she closed her eyes, took Xue Jing's hand, and pressed it against her cheek.
Her expression was serene and peaceful, like a baby being held in its mother's arms, exuding an obvious sense of security.
"..."
Xue Jing raised an eyebrow slightly.
It seems like he went a little too far... and completely stunned the arrogant teacher?
After a few minutes of silence, Xue Jing looked at the divine power on the panel, which had already risen to over 300 but still showed no signs of stopping, and found it somewhat unbelievable.
Although I had thought that taking off my glasses would be effective, I never expected the results to be this great.
After a while, it finally stopped when the divinity rose to 518.
At this moment, Ning Fengwan slowly opened her eyes and looked at Xue Jing.
At this moment, Xue Jing's silvery-white eyes had faded, his divine aura had dissipated, and his explosive presence had almost returned to normal.
However, his hairstyle remained slicked back.
Ning Fengwan's cheeks flushed red. She released Xue Jing's hand, then covered her chest, and hummed softly as if nothing had happened:
"...Hmph, I'd say he's barely considered handsome."
Upon hearing this, Xue Jing smiled and said gently:
"Is that so? It seems we still need to keep working hard."
"What did Teacher Wan gain?"
Ning Fengwan glanced at Xue Jing, her gaze complex, as if something had changed compared to her usual expression.
She sighed softly, taking a moment to assess her current state.
"The integration has deepened, and I am now... very strong."
Ning Fengwan spoke up.
"And there's an extra strange new ability."
"In Chinese, it should be translated as 'Invincible Lionheart'."
……
At eight o'clock in the evening, Xue Jing left his house to go to his appointment.
The students in the elite class had agreed to treat him to dinner tonight.
As Xue Jing walked towards the bus stop, he opened the panel and flipped to the Divine Skills section.
【Twins Lv3 (Divinity required for upgrade: 518/500)】
Xue Jing clicked on the upgrade option.
……
Chapter 100 The Silver Eye of God, I Got It, And Then What? (4K)
【Twins Lv4 (18/800)】
[Passive: Possesses two lives; after death, can freely choose a resurrection time within seven days. Cooldown: 60 days]
[Active: Each level 1 allows you to designate one ability related to your own physical body, which will have double the effect when used]
[Currently activated: Physical Strength, Movement Speed, Physical Defense]
[Currently selectable: reaction speed, calculation ability, concentration, memory, body temperature, flexibility, sensory ability, instinctive intuition...]
Xue Jing glanced at the Twin Passive after reaching Lv4 and found that the cooldown time was still reduced by ten days, so he nodded.
"Alright, it really is a fixed ten days for each level..."
This essentially confirms that once Twins reaches Lv10, their cooldown time will be reduced to an incredible level.
"Even if they can't resurrect indefinitely, they're probably not far off."
Xue Jing thought to himself.
"Next is the selection of active effects."
"The original plan was to select 'reaction speed'..."
Xue Jing looked at the dozens of options on the panel.
He's a little hesitant now.
Generally speaking, reaction speed is a top priority for him as a martial artist.
but……
Xue Jing glanced at the top of the panel.
[Aiming at Lv6 (2870/3000)].
The aiming skill, which is about to reach Lv7, provides a huge boost to dynamic vision.
Given his current abilities, having double the reaction speed on top of aiming would be quite a waste.
Because the body simply cannot keep up with its own reaction speed.
Just like when he faced Jiao Hongyuan's attack that day, he had already seen the opponent's attack, but his body was completely unable to dodge it.
His current reaction speed is already sufficient for his own strength, and may even exceed his own strength requirements.
Adding more would just be a pure waste.
"With Otogi Suzuka's sword-drawing speed, even if you can react in time, your body probably won't be able to dodge it at all. Actually, it would be better to choose [Instinct], which might allow you to sense danger in advance and let your body automatically avoid the opponent's sword strike."
Xue Jing thought to himself.
Then he remembered what Wu Youqing had said about the importance of spirit in martial arts.
"Or perhaps choose an ability related to mental abilities? Like [Concentration]..."
"This choice should enhance the essence of the Heavenly Will Blade and also benefit daily martial arts training..."
"I'm so conflicted."
Xue Jing shook his head, closed the panel, and decided to postpone the selection of the new active effect for the time being.
"Let's talk about it later."
He went to the street, hailed a taxi, and headed to the restaurant where he had arranged to meet his classmates.
Shortly after, the car stopped in front of a restaurant called 'Baolin Restaurant'.
Xue Jing scanned the QR code to pay, thanked the driver, got out of the car, and went inside.
Since everyone was a student with limited financial resources, the restaurant they chose wasn't high-end, but it had a good reputation. Xue Jing had eaten there a few times and found the food to be delicious.
As soon as he entered, he headed towards the private rooms, arrived at the room that Li Ge had sent him via WeChat, and pushed open the door.
Many students have already arrived.
There are dozens of students in the elite class, so this private room was chosen to be very large, with five large tables inside.
Upon seeing Xue Jing enter, Li Ge, who was sitting at one of the tables, immediately stood up and loudly proclaimed:
"Hey, hey, alright, the main dish has finally arrived! Hurry up and serve the food! I didn't eat much for lunch, and now I'm starving!"
Other students also spoke up.
"Xue Jing is here! Please have a seat!"
"I'll go ask the waiter to bring the food."
"Come on, come on, sit at the middle table..."
Xue Jing walked forward, sat down in the seat next to Li Ge, and answered his classmate's questions with a smile.
"Sigh, it feels like so many things have changed since more than a month ago."
Li Ge unscrewed the large bottle of cola, poured a glass for himself and Xue Jing, took a sip, and sighed.
"Ever since you started practicing martial arts, it's as if we've become people from two different worlds."
"I never thought you'd actually succeed on this path. Now even the news is reporting on you as a martial arts genius. The principal even held an awards ceremony specifically to praise you, but it's strange that you didn't come."
Xue Jing put his arm around his shoulder and laughed:
"What's wrong? You look like a melancholy, resentful woman. Is your Range Rover too fast, making you feel lonely?"
Li Ge nodded and hummed in agreement.
"There is some degree to it."
"However, compared to this little bit of emotion, I hope you can truly soar to great heights, even if it's to the point where I can no longer reach you."
Li Ge said sincerely.
"People always strive to move forward. Since you have this talent and opportunity, don't let anything hold you back. I can only wish you well, brother."
Xue Jing rubbed Li Ge's head with his other hand and laughed:
"You don't need to tell me, I will do the same."
Upon hearing Li Ge's words, Xue Jing couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.
When people gain something, they will inevitably lose something else; this is perfectly normal.
