Chapter 174 - 125: Crushing the Awakened Squad

Chapter 174: Chapter 125: Crushing the Awakened Squad

Night Court Base.

On an empty training ground.

The show-off Wu Jiahao, and the American-style ABC girl Liu Yue, were both training quietly, racing against the clock to increase their power.

Although they were both training, their methods were worlds apart.

One was acting like various animals.

The other was Controlling Objects in the Air.

They were two completely different training systems.

As for why there was such a huge difference...

This was because Extraordinary Awakened only needed to perform actions that corresponded with their Superpowers to gain Extraordinary Power and grow stronger.

Wu Jiahao’s Superpower was Genetic Fusion. He could grow stronger by fusing with the genes of other creatures, so his training method was to imitate the behavior of other animals.

Liu Yue’s Superpower was Spiritual Control. She could control things from a distance using her spiritual power, so her training method involved telekinetically manipulating small objects.

"WOOF WOOF WOOF!"

"MEOW MEOW MEOW!"

"HISS HISS HISS!"

Wu Jiahao was training with all his might.

One moment he was imitating a dog, barking nonstop, sniffing all over the ground, and urinating to mark his territory.

The next moment, he was imitating a cat, frequently licking his hands, occasionally entering "Spiny-backed Dragon mode" to hiss at the air and cry out, "Old Wu! Old Wu!"

Then he’d imitate a snake, writhing and slithering rapidly across the ground. He would stop, rear up his body to flick his tongue, then suddenly lunge forward to bite at the air.

Nearby, Liu Yue was also training diligently.

She was controlling a fine stream of water molecules, weaving it smoothly back and forth through her body’s various orifices without once touching her mucous membranes, demonstrating incredible control.

They trained for an unknown length of time.

Eventually, they both grew tired.

They had no choice but to stop and rest for a while.

The way they rested was also completely different.

Wu Jiahao found a random tree and leaned his back against the trunk with a practiced motion.

He then lowered his head, put on the hood of his sweatshirt, and pulled it down to cover his eyes.

Next, he put on a face mask, obscuring most of his face.

Finally, he took out an earbud, stuck it in his ear, and listened to Alan Walker’s incredible electronic music while fantasizing about all sorts of thrilling scenes where he could show off in front of everyone.

As for Liu Yue, her way of resting was much simpler.

She just took out a portable makeup kit and began applying makeup in a small mirror.

She made her eyes look long and narrow.

She painted her lips a vibrant red.

She did her best to make herself look like a sophisticated American girl.

"Oi!"

Suddenly, Wu Jiahao, who was leaning against the tree, called out to Liu Yue.

Liu Yue replied irritably, "What do you want?"

Wu Jiahao adjusted his hood, adding to his air of mystery, and asked in a deliberately deep voice, "What’s your current Biological Level?"

Liu Yue didn’t hide it. "I’m already at Tier Six Peak Great Perfection. I should reach Tier Seven in less than a month."

"Not bad. Very strong."

Wu Jiahao adopted the tone of a reclusive master. "But you’re still a bit lacking compared to me. I’ve already just entered Tier Seven."

Liu Yue sneered. "Hmph. Don’t think you’re stronger than me just because your Biological Level is a little higher. If we were to actually fight, you wouldn’t necessarily win."

Wu Jiahao ignored the jab and instead brought up Gu Qing:

"That guy, Gu Qing, is reporting to the squad later."

"I’m more than ten times stronger now than I was on the day of the recruitment test."

"When he gets here, I’m going to show him just how powerful this body of mine is!"

As he said this last sentence, Wu Jiahao couldn’t help but tilt his head back, his eyes filled with confidence.

He was certain that his current strength far surpassed Gu Qing’s. He believed he could easily wipe the floor with Gu Qing and wash away the shame of losing to him in the recruitment test.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yue was even more confident than him—bordering on conceited:

"You still see him as a rival? Then I’d say your strength isn’t all that special. Later, I could take on both of you at once."

Over the past few days, she had developed an extremely insidious and vicious Spiritual Attack technique.

It could bypass a target’s physical defenses to directly invade their consciousness and interfere with their thoughts.

No matter how high the target’s Physical Strength, as long as their Spiritual Strength couldn’t match hers, their defeat was guaranteed.

And as an Extraordinary Awakened of the Spiritual Element, she believed her Spiritual Strength was far superior to Gu Qing’s and Wu Jiahao’s. Taking care of them both would be a piece of cake.

At that moment, both Wu Jiahao and Liu Yue felt they could effortlessly crush Gu Qing.

The reason they both felt this way was that, as Extraordinary Awakened, they had made immense progress over the past few days.

Not only had their Biological Levels increased, but their Superpowers had been further developed, causing their strength to multiply.

As for Gu Qing, who was merely an Extraordinary Contactor, he couldn’t have improved much in such a short time. He might have even made no progress at all.

After all, the defining traits of an Extraordinary Contactor were an extremely low future potential and an incredibly slow rate of progress.

A young man sitting not far away listened to their conversation, smiling without saying a word.

He was the instructor of this Awakened Squad, and his name was Zhao Chuan.

As the squad’s instructor, he was well aware of each member’s strength.

Especially Gu Qing’s.

He knew that even if Wu Jiahao and Liu Yue teamed up, they would be no match for Gu Qing.

So, as he listened to their conversation now, he found it rather amusing.

Gu Qing had recently become famous within the Night Court, having single-handedly resolved several extraordinary incidents in a row.

Among these, the most notable were the Fox Sisters incident and the King Kong Barbie Fox incident.

The Fox Sisters specialized in the spiritual path. Their Spiritual Strength was as high as Tier Seven, and their mastery of the Charm Technique was sublime, making them an extreme counter to Extraordinary Beings whose Biological Level was still in the ordinary stages.
