Myth News Forecast

The severity of the forecast was resolved more slowly than anyone expected.

In the office, Cheng Huo, surrounded by several people, stared intently at the gradually fading forecast interface on his phone screen, then quickly glanced at his watch.

"The results are in, it took 27 minutes! Did anyone guess correctly?"

He turned around and looked at Wang Yu and Cat General from Group 2, Cai Cai from Group 5, and Duan Shuiliu from Group 4.

Everyone shook their heads.

"Haha, that's a real shame. I guess I win."

Cheng Huo, who was in charge of the betting, laughed out loud. He had only wanted to make a little money, but he didn't expect Captain Chen to cooperate so well, making everyone lose.

After collecting the money from each person, he turned around and went to Du Wang's side: "Old Du, I won seven thousand, hey."

Du Wang asked in surprise, "Playing this big?"

"They are all richer than me, especially the old team members like General Cat. This amount of money is just a drop in the ocean for them."

Cheng Huo imitated a Cantonese accent and then tapped several times on the phone screen.

The next second, Du Wang received a transfer of 3500 yuan.

Seeing the young man turn around, Cheng Huo patted his chest and said, "Good brother, let's split it 50/50, don't refuse, consider it a thank you for finding me some extra income."

Since he was so straightforward, Du Wang could only smile and accept it, and then immediately bought the electric scooter he had his eye on in his shopping cart.

……

……

The next afternoon.

Du Wang walked out of the crowded training room, soaking wet.

Since his physical condition improved, he has resumed the strength and endurance training he used to do when competing.

Now, with his physical fitness further improved, in addition to basic muscle training, he also incorporates running, boxing, horse stance, and spear training into his daily training.

At this point, his body had been completely transformed, and he was no longer the sickly person he once was.

I can see my well-defined abs and six-pack even when I look in the mirror.

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Du Wang took the new type of stamina supplement that Zheng Tong had provided for free and put it in his mouth.

On his way back to the office area, he suddenly ran into Professor Zhuang.

The professor was wearing a gray shirt with a white T-shirt, his hair was neatly combed, and he was carrying a stack of documents and a thermos.

He stopped when he saw Du Wang: "Double Pupils, your experiment report from last time is out. Do you have time to talk about it?"

"Okay." Du Wang readily agreed and accompanied Professor Zhuang back to the research room.

After closing the door, the two sat opposite each other, just like they had in class before.

As Professor Zhuang rummaged through a pile of documents to find his medical examination report, he said, "We have carefully studied all the data over this period of time, and given your situation, I think it is necessary to give you some reminders."

"Please speak," Du Wang said earnestly.

Professor Zhuang crossed his arms and asked, "What do you think is the biggest difference between a Tier 1 Twin and a Tier 2 Spirit Master?"

Du Wang thought for a few seconds and replied, "It should be related to the use of one's natal spirit."

Based on his previous missions, he found that the difference between the first and second orders did not seem to be as great as he had imagined.

Professor Zhuang nodded slightly: "Twin-tier transcendents can only fight on their own, which has many limitations. On the other hand, Spirit-Controlling tier transcendents can summon their natal spirits to fight alongside them."

"But that's only the surface of the difference."

"What truly sets them apart is the fundamental difference in their understanding of their own abilities."

Professor Zhuang said seriously, "Let me give you an example. Now, let's say there's an ordinary person named Xiaoming."

"He was lucky; after the chance encounter with the Advent event, he became a superhuman without any serious harm."

"His innate spirit control is 40%, and its ability is to unleash flames."

"He was very excited and kept participating in the Advent events in order to quickly increase his experience points."

"During this process, he heard from other people that if the control level is above 50%, there is a chance to obtain a second ability."

"This was easy for him, because when he reached the first level with full experience, his control level had increased to 55%, and he successfully acquired his second ability—manipulating flames."

"Thanks to luck, he obtained the attribute relic he needed and successfully advanced."

"After advancing to the second tier, he discovered that his natal spirit's abilities had undergone an unexpected change. What was originally a simple release of flames had transformed into a more powerful fire tornado, and his control over the flames had become more flexible."

"At the same time, his control over his natal spirit increased at a faster rate. He raised his control to 70% after only a few missions and gained his third ability—Flame Armor."

"After his strength improved, Xiaoming rose rapidly in the Tier 2 leaderboard and was riding high."

"I never expected to get stuck around 100th place and not be able to move forward."

He was puzzled and thought that he didn't have enough control, so he started thinking of various ways to increase his control.

"The results were minimal. Even with his control level rising to 80%, his strength did not improve, and his ranking remained unchanged."

"He had no choice but to spend a huge sum of money to find a Tier 3 transcendent and learn the truth from him."

"So, for a Tier 2 transcendent to rank high on the leaderboard, it's not just about their own abilities, but also about their innate spirit."

"Only by deeply understanding the essence of your natal spirit and mastering it to the fullest extent can you rapidly improve your ranking."

"And this is the true meaning of a Tier 2 Spirit Master."

After saying this, Professor Zhuang picked up his water glass and took a sip.

Du Wang silently digested what he had said, and seemed to have gained some insight.

Professor Zhuang continued, "In fact, extraordinary individuals like Xiaoming can already be called geniuses."

"However, he was still limited by his single understanding of his natal spirit, believing that as long as his control over it increased, his strength would increase."

"This is wrong."

"For Tier 2, control level isn't that important; 70%-80% is sufficient."

"More importantly, we need to transform the data on paper into real combat power."

Professor Zhuang paused for a moment:

"Logically, you should only learn about these precautions after you reach level 2."

"The reason I'm telling you in advance is because you're different from Liu Qiang and Heng Chong."

"Although they are at level 2, they are still in the early stages and need to improve their control."

"You've already covered 90% of their journey, so there's no need to waste any more time on it."

"Um... Professor," Du Wang interrupted him, "I have 100% control."

At first, he was unfamiliar with the situation and was afraid that 100% would be too shocking, so he understated it by 10%.

Now that we are familiar with each other and have built trust, there is no need to hide anything.

Expecting surprise, Professor Zhuang simply stroked his chin and asked, "Has there been any change in your abilities?"

"I've recently acquired another ability: I can see some of the weaknesses of demons and monsters."

Du Wang felt that the investigation department should be observing him closely. This time, he defeated a fierce-level demon as a first-level superhuman, and the authorities would definitely find out something.

Instead of waiting, it's better to just say it.

Just blame it all on the mutated Mukuro.

"Oh? Seeing through weaknesses, that's an interesting ability. I can study it slowly later."

Professor Zhuang was intrigued, but he set that aside for the moment and continued, "Besides abilities, have there been any other changes?"

"there is none left."

"Yes, that's pretty much what we thought at the beginning."

Professor Zhuang tapped the table with his finger: "The main mutation of the Eyebag Demon is that it allows you to acquire all the abilities earlier than others."

"This is both an advantage and a constraint."

"The advantage lies in your stronger survival ability, which allows you to quickly improve your ranking."

"The constraint is that having too many abilities can interfere with your ability to develop and utilize a single ability."

Du Wang nodded. He was indeed relying on the [Deadline] now, with the other abilities serving only as supplementary.

Professor Zhuang said, "If this continues, when you advance to the second rank, your ranking will improve much more slowly than others."

"Because you need to spend more time researching and developing your abilities."

"But if you realize this now, you can turn a disadvantage into an advantage."

He laughed: "After all, you have already obtained all of the Eyebag Demon's abilities. You can thoroughly study the characteristics of each ability before advancing and find more ways to use them."

"Try combining different abilities to achieve a result where 1+1 is greater than 2."

"In addition, you can communicate with your personal spirit more often. Having 100% control does not mean you can command it at will."

"Your personal spirit is not a toy or a tool; it is also a living being with its own preferences and habits."

"Thank you for reminding me, Professor."

Du Wang was very grateful to Professor Zhuang.

In anything, taking the right path is more important than burying yourself in hard work.
