I Am an Esper, I'm Done Hiding It!

In Z City, everyone looked up at the sky in unison, wary of their surroundings.

Their eyes held a trace of fear toward the unknown, as the air raid sirens had been wailing for over ten minutes.

At first, no one paid any mind to this incident, assuming it was just a routine alert for a superpower battle, until this disaster became inextricably linked to everyone...

In Mid-City High School, due to the persistent siren echoing through the city, some students wanted to pull out their phones to vent online, but they quickly realized something was wrong.

"What's going on? My phone has no signal."

"It's not that there's no signal; my bars are still full, but I can't log into any video sites."

"Damn it, this superpowered individual's power is so strong that they can actually stop us from getting online!"

In the corner by the window, Fang Can tilted his head to overlook the classroom, his demeanor quite leisurely.

After all, up until now, his superpower, the Bad Event Detection Radar, had not issued any warnings, indicating that the current situation was still within a controllable range.

So, no panic; it wasn't a big problem.

Moreover, watching these cute classmates who usually clamored about wanting to see blood flow, only to fall into complete chaos the moment something actually happened, Fang Can found it quite amusing!

Casually taking out his phone, Fang Can checked the signal; it was indeed full, but when he clicked on the KuaiDou B-Hu app, it failed to load.

Furthermore, while students could still call each other normally, any attempt to contact someone outside of Z City resulted in a "connection failed" message.

"Why does this feel like we've been firewalled?"

This thought popped into Fang Can's mind. How could there be a wall inside the wall?

Before he could ponder it for long, a signal began to automatically connect to everyone's electronic devices, and their phones started downloading a file named Five Elements Moistening Technique.

"Five Elements Intercalary Technique?" Fang Can's brow furrowed sharply, realizing that things were not looking good.

The entire file was only 70MB, and just a moment later, the download was complete for everyone.

Filled with suspicion, Fang Can opened the file, and the table of contents at the very beginning made his vision go dark.

<Five Elements Moistening Technique: Mortal Shedding Body Chapter>

"Damn it, the Idealist Martial Dao is still chasing me." Fang Can was completely speechless as he flipped through it.

Skipping past the preface, table of contents, history of martial dao, our country's research contributions to martial dao, the bottlenecks in recent years, the landscape of our country's martial dao, and a whole bunch of textbook-style nonsense about future prospects, he finally saw the main text, which was only a few pages long.

Looking at the mention of the 108 acupuncture points in the human body, as well as the Role-Playing Method and the Myriad Manifestation Form-Intention Fist, Fang Can finally confirmed that this was indeed the genuine Idealist Martial Dao.

Connecting this to the blocked signal outside the city and the abrupt air raid sirens, a grim thought rose in Fang Can's heart.

A moment later, a video popped up in front of everyone. A youth wearing an orange shirt waved at the screen and said, "Citizens of Z City, on behalf of the Dragon Group, I congratulate you in advance for becoming the target of this year's Carnival Day."

Following the youth's words in the video, the entire class felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar; their hands and feet turned cold. They hadn't expected that the Carnival Day they had been discussing so heatedly would be so close.

"How could this happen? I want to get out!"

"Damn it, out of more than nine hundred cities in the country, why did they have to pick us?"

"I want to leave the city! I want to leave the city!"

Following the youth's announcement, the entire city fell into an uproar, because they knew very well the fate of cities that became targets of Carnival Day.

The youth in the video did not know, nor did he care, about this commotion, and he continued with a smile:

"The entire perimeter of Z City is now under lockdown. Anyone attempting to leave the city will be attacked, and this will continue until Carnival Day ends."

"At the same time, during this period, there will be no law whatsoever in the entire city, and no one will be sent to take over until after Carnival Day."

"Also, the file I sent you in the video contains the latest research results. If you practice hard, it might increase your chances of survival."

"Before Carnival Day, if you can develop a sense of qi, each person will be rewarded with 10 million."

"Finally, good luck."

Having said that, the youth smiled, waved at everyone, and then voluntarily disconnected the link.

As the phone screens went black, a brief silence was followed by a massive explosion of chaos throughout the school.

In an instant, wailing, screaming, and angry shouts spread throughout the city.

A frenzy seemed about to unfold across the entire city.

And in Building No. 2 of Mid-City High School, accompanied by the crisp sound of shattering glass, a chair smashed through a window and flew out of the building.

A teacher looked at the youth with a buzz cut in front of him and roared, "Zhang Yang, what are you doing! Isn't it chaotic enough already?"

But he was met only with a punch to the face.

The buzz-cut youth used a Respecting Teacher and Dao Fist to knock the teacher down, shouting to the terrified class:

"I've long since been sick of reading these damn books! Functions, geometry—I don't want to hear another word about them."

"You all heard him; there is no law anymore! Who cares about your exams or your studies? I'm done!"

After saying this, in front of the entire class, the buzz-cut youth strode out of the classroom, and no one dared to stop him.

"Things have gotten serious now." In the corner, Fang Can shook his head helplessly.

From here on out, situations like this where order is disrupted within the city will only become more frequent.

Robberies, murders, and other such acts are causing turmoil, and in this vicious cycle, by the time Carnival Day ends, this city will likely be on par with Los Santos.

So... should I step in? Fang Can thought to himself as he watched the chaotic classroom.

If he were to reveal his identity as an esper, combined with his current combat strength, it wouldn't be impossible to maintain order in a city.

After all, whether order exists or not comes down to hope, and as an esper, he could serve as a credit endorsement in the short term.

While hesitating, Fang Can casually pulled a coin from his pocket, preparing to leave it to fate.

As the coin was lightly tossed from Fang Can's hand, it tumbled through the air, bounced twice on the ground, and then wedged itself directly into a crack in the floor, standing upright.

"What is this supposed to mean?"

Fang Can looked at the coin standing on the ground: "Are you telling me to do whatever I want?"

"Heh!" The corners of Fang Can's mouth couldn't help but curl up; he grabbed the coin from the ground with his right hand, gave it a light squeeze, and picked it back up.

At this moment, the entire classroom had descended into a mess; some were terrified, while others were excited, as if they were celebrating a holiday.

But suddenly, everyone felt a tightening in their chests, as if some great terror had descended upon them.

Without any coordination, everyone subconsciously turned to look behind them in unison.

From his seat by the window in the corner, Fang Can slammed the side of the coin representing "do as one pleases" onto the desk and slowly stood up.

No one dared to meet his gaze, and no one dared to speak, as if the person before them possessed a terrifying majesty.

After using his newly learned Heart Manifestation to intimidate the entire class, and amidst the awe, anticipation, and envy in everyone's eyes, Fang Can spread his hands and said:

"I am an esper... I'm laying my cards on the table."
