Combat Skill Library! SSS-rank Combat Skill!

After entering the private Training Room, Xu Jingming carried out a series of tests focused on physical strength.

The results showed that after obtaining the Thunder Undying Body, his physical strength had undergone a terrifying increase!

His skin's defensive power was comparable to E-rank alloy, making him impervious to ordinary blades and bullets.

He tried to make a wound on his skin, only for it to heal completely within a few breaths!

"Such powerful defense and recovery speed—this truly is an S-rank Body Tempering Combat Skill!"

Xu Jingming's eyes lit up slightly.

With a physique like this, as long as he did not do anything too reckless, it would be almost impossible for his life to be in danger!

He also discovered that his height had increased from 1.86 meters to 1.89 meters.

His weight was even more outrageous, soaring directly from 80 kilograms to 120 kilograms!

However, his appearance had not changed much. Only his bone density had increased, while his muscles had become more compact.

"If this were my previous life, these physical qualities would absolutely make me a little Superman!"

Xu Jingming was extremely satisfied with his current condition.

He was also glad that he had such a good teacher.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to improve so greatly in just a few days.

"The tests are done. I'll go take a look at the Library later."

Thanks to the S-rank authority granted to him by Modu Metahuman University, every book in the Library was freely available to him.

Xu Jingming had long coveted the collection possessed by an elite university like Modu Metahuman University.

After leaving the room, he found Liu Wentao in the neighboring Training Room, and the two left Thunder Martial Hall together.

"Brother Ming, did you know? There are so many posts about you on the school forum now."

On the way, Liu Wentao said excitedly, "And quite a few people are clamoring to challenge you."

During his time in the Training Room, aside from training,

he had also browsed his phone during breaks and naturally saw the posts on the school forum.

"Challenge me?"

Xu Jingming raised an eyebrow. "Modu Metahuman University really does have a strong martial culture."

Of course, there was another possibility: these people wanted to step on him to make a name for themselves.

However, Xu Jingming had little interest in such battle invitations.

"Wentao, are you going to the Combat Skill Library?"

At a fork in the road, Xu Jingming asked Liu Wentao.

"I went yesterday, so I'm not going today."

"Alright, then head back first."

Xu Jingming nodded. After parting ways with Liu Wentao, he headed straight toward the Library.

Modu Metahuman University had two libraries.

One was the Ordinary Library, which contained books on history and culture.

The other was the Combat Skill Library, which housed numerous Battle Techniques and Ability Training Methods for every type of ability.

Xu Jingming was going to the second Library.

As one of Modu Metahuman University's most important locations, the Combat Skill Library was built with imposing grandeur.

It stood there like a small mountain, radiating a heavy, oppressive presence.

Moreover, the entire Combat Skill Library resembled a mirage, looking somewhat illusory.

"There are rumors that the entire Combat Skill Library is controlled by one of our school's Vice-Principals, who possesses a Space-type Ability. It seems the rumors are true."

Xu Jingming had happened upon this information while using Eva to look up details about the Library.

If anything went wrong, the entire Combat Skill Library could exist independently of this space.

Without the appropriate means, even a Ninth-Order Martial Saint would be unable to forcibly seize those precious original manuals.

"Beep—"

After he swiped his student ID at the entrance, the tightly shut doors opened, and Xu Jingming stepped inside.

The first floor of the Library was a vast hall.

There was only a single reception desk in the hall.

Xu Jingming walked up to the desk, preparing to ask how he could access Battle Technique manuals,

when the female teacher behind the desk stood up directly, a gentle smile on her face.

"S-rank student Xu Jingming, welcome to the Combat Skill Library. How may I help you?"

The teacher was fairly attractive and wore black-rimmed glasses, looking like a Chinese teacher from some middle school.

However, the faint aura she gave off indicated that she was at least a Fourth-Order Metahuman.

"You know me?" Xu Jingming asked in surprise.

Even if he had just broken a record, he should not have become this famous, right?

Even this teacher in the Library knew him.

"Students with S-rank authority may freely browse all Battle Techniques in the Library and are holders of special privileges.

Therefore, the moment you swiped your student ID at the entrance, I received a notification."

The female teacher wore a pleasant smile, and her attitude was extremely friendly—one could even call it respectful.

A Fourth-Order Metahuman treating a First-Order Metahuman respectfully sounded somewhat unbelievable.

But to the teacher herself, that was not the case.

After all, possessing S-rank authority meant the other party had limitless potential.

As long as he did not die young, he would at least become a Grandmaster-level Metahuman in the future.

As for her, she had nearly exhausted all her potential merely by reaching the Fourth Order.

Such a respectful attitude was, in a sense, a gesture of goodwill.

The Director of Admissions Office, Zhang Chaoyang, had acted this way before. This female teacher was doing the same.

"I see."

Xu Jingming nodded in understanding, then asked,

"I want to look at Lightning Type Battle Techniques. Which floor should I go to?"

"Battle Techniques below B-rank are all located in the public reading rooms on the second and third floors.

As for Battle Techniques above B-rank, they are kept confidential due to their immense value.

You must first make an online selection in the reading rooms on the fourth floor before you can access the manuals."

The female teacher explained patiently.

"Then I'll go straight to the reading room."

Xu Jingming nodded.

Since he could access higher-level Battle Techniques, he naturally would not learn low-level ones.

"Alright. Reading Room 403 on the fourth floor has been opened for you.

You only need to swipe your student ID on the sensor outside the door to enter."

After operating her computer for a moment, the female teacher said this.

Then, led by a staff member beside her, Xu Jingming took the elevator to the fourth floor.

Much like student dormitories from his previous life, the fourth-floor reading rooms were all individual rooms.

Only, the decor was more refined and carried a unique classical charm.

Not long after reaching the fourth floor, Xu Jingming saw a room marked 403 above its door.

"Beep—"

He swiped his student ID over the sensor by the door, and the door opened in response.

"The room contains a sub-body of the artificial intelligence Eva. Just make any requests to her.

After selecting a Battle Technique online, click confirm, and we will deliver the original manual to you.

Also, because original Battle Technique manuals above B-rank are extremely precious, please be especially careful while reading them."

After repeating the precautions one last time, the staff member turned and left.

Xu Jingming then stepped into the room.

The reading room was not very large, only around twenty square meters.

A table and chairs stood in the center. At the very center of the table was the familiar spherical projection of the artificial intelligence Eva.

"S-rank student Xu Jingming, what Battle Techniques do you wish to access?"

Eva spoke first, bobbing her little spherical body.

"Every Lightning Type Battle Technique above B-rank."

Xu Jingming did not stand on ceremony and directly stated his request.

"Alright."

The little sphere nodded humanely.

Then, the holographic projection beside him displayed densely packed Battle Technique names and their relevant descriptions:

Myriad Prison Heavenly Thunder Edict (SSS-rank): Uses Lightning Type abilities as its core to create a Thunderstorm domain with a maximum diameter of 80 kilometers.

Note: This Battle Technique may only be learned by Metahumans with B-rank or higher Lightning Type abilities who are at least Fifth Order.

Wrath of the Thunder God (SS-rank): Calls down thunderbolts like divine punishment, possessing immense power.

Note: This Battle Technique may only be learned by Metahumans with B-rank or higher Lightning Type abilities who are at least Fourth Order.

Thunder Abyss (SS-rank): Opens a thunderous abyss and seals a location with lightning.

Note: This Battle Technique may only be learned by Metahumans with B-rank or higher Lightning Type abilities who are at least Fourth Order.

...

"SSS-rank Combat Skills, and even SS-rank Combat Skills! As expected of an elite university—the collection of Battle Technique manuals is so extensive!"

Xu Jingming's eyes shone as he looked through them.

Unfortunately, SSS-rank and SS-rank Combat Skills were so powerful

that the amount of ability required to use them even once was terrifying.

Even if Low-Order Metahumans drained every last bit of ability from their bodies, they would be unable to release them even once.

Even the comparatively less demanding S-rank Combat Skills listed here

required one to reach the Second or Third Order and possess at least a C-rank ability before they could be learned.
