Great Sun Ultimate Visualization Method, Heading to Thunder Martial Arts Hall

The next morning.

Jiang Yuan bid farewell to his aunt's family and brought his luggage to Chongming Martial Arts Hall.

He had spoken to Xu Yihan beforehand; she agreed immediately and cleared out a room for him overnight.

The facility was fully equipped and deserted, meaning he could cause as much noise or as many strange phenomena as he wanted without issue.

He planned to stay here until the college entrance exam.

However, before that... he still had to help Xu Yihan deal with the challenge from Thunder Martial Arts Hall.

"You went to the Abyss?! And you reached LV9?!"

Inside a second-hand red convertible, Xu Yihan, wearing sunglasses, exclaimed in surprise.

Jiang Yuan, sitting in the passenger seat with his eyes closed, felt the rush of the wind and replied, "Yeah."

Xu Yihan remained silent for a long time before spitting out two words:

"Monster!"

The red sports car sped down the road, its engine roaring.

In the modern era, sky-shuttles had become the mainstream.

Except for extremely rare limited editions, ground-based sports cars were no longer valuable and could be bought for just a few tens of thousands.

"Do you know who your opponent is today?" Xu Yihan asked while driving.

"No, who is it?"

"Someone from your school, a guy named Liang Cheng from Class S. He has an A-grade talent and a rare profession. I heard he just completed his registration as a Tier 1 warrior two days ago."

"Oh, never heard of him."

"Thunder Martial Arts Hall has really gone all out to create hype for today's challenge to build momentum for him. If he wins today, he'll likely emerge as a supernova, and Thunder Martial Arts Hall will make a fortune in tuition fees from the fame. It's a pity, though..." Xu Yihan said, glancing at the boy beside her who was lazily leaning against the window, watching the scenery and not listening at all.

It was a pity he had run into a monster.

He was going to have a miserable time...

Xu Yihan felt a sense of schadenfreude, and the smile on her lips was impossible to suppress.

Jiang Yuan naturally didn't care who his opponent was; it made no difference to him.

While zoning out, he used his newly comprehended visualization method to sense his own mental domain.

Great Sun Ultimate Visualization Method (SSS): Visualize an infinitely large, blazing sun to temper one's own spirit. Continuously refine it until it is clear and flawless, reaching the realm of the Ultimate Spirit. With a single thought, reach the heavens; eternal and indestructible!

Effect 1: Ignore all mental pollution. Mental attack resistance +200%, mental attack power +300%, with added effects of burning, laceration, and erosion.

Effect 2: Mental recovery speed +200%.

Effect 3: Mental pressure amplification +200%, with added true damage effects.

As Jiang Yuan visualized, deep within his brow, the mysterious gate to his mental domain opened a crack. Looking inside, one could see a vast golden ocean.

That was his immense mental power, but for now, he could only utilize the portion that spilled through the crack. The rest would only be fully released once his visualization method deepened and the gate opened completely.

He opened his eyes.

Jiang Yuan moved his mind, and his mental power spread out like tentacles. A car driving not far away suddenly stopped in its tracks.

"What's wrong? What's happening?" The driver panicked, watching as a red sports car sped past him.

"No wonder mental-type warriors are so highly regarded. It really is useful, and devious enough to be impossible to guard against."

Jiang Yuan sighed inwardly.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yihan turned her head to ask.

"Nothing. How much longer?"

"We'll be there in a few minutes."

They arrived at the Thunder Martial Arts Hall in the city center.

It was as large as a shopping mall, far bigger than Chongming Martial Arts Hall. There were many cars parked outside, the interior was bustling with noise, and sky-shuttles circled the building as various people used new-model cameras to livestream.

"Everyone, as you can see, I have arrived at Thunder Martial Arts Hall. Since it's a day off, there are a lot of people here today."

A fresh-faced, beautiful streamer walked along the road, a black orb with two wings hovering and circling in front of her.

This was the latest small intelligent camera, which could bind to the user's will and move according to their thoughts, making it very convenient.

"I heard that Thunder Martial Arts Hall has produced a prodigy who will be stepping out today to face a challenge from Chongming Martial Arts Hall. Does anyone know about Chongming Martial Arts Hall? This is the first time I, Moyu, have heard of it."

The beautiful streamer was named Moyu, a sweet-looking girl who was a minor streamer with 100,000 followers.

Comments flashed rapidly across the livestream chat.

"Chongming Martial Arts Hall? Never heard of it."

"What kind of decent disciples could a nameless little martial arts hall possibly have? I bet Thunder Martial Arts Hall just made such a big scene to build hype for their own disciples."

"A 17-year-old transitioned martial artist, and I heard it's a rare class too. Talk about a rising star."

"What's so fun about watching kids fight? Moyu, why don't you come to my place instead? I'll show you my ultimate skill."

"Flame Blade Guild is recruiting, generous benefits, negotiable..."

"Now, let me take everyone in the livestream inside to have a look."

As Moyu spoke and laughed, he walked toward the martial arts hall.

Not far from her, a red sports car was parked.

"Is this the place?"

Jiang Yuan stepped out of the car, yawning.

He was dressed in casual sportswear. Standing nearly 1.78 meters tall, with black hair and golden eyes, his handsome features and lazy, carefree demeanor—compounded by the mysterious aura radiating from his evolved life level and awakened mental domain—made him look like a bright moon in the night sky, instantly drawing the gaze of many girls in the parking lot.

"Hey, look, isn't that guy kind of handsome?"

"So handsome..."

"Is he a high schooler? Or an idol who just debuted?"

In front of a latest-model air shuttle not far away, "Xi, that guy is so handsome. Is he from your school?"

Yang Yuwei poked the arm of her best friend beside her.

Luo Xi, who was wearing a hat and glasses to conceal her purple hair and eyes, followed her friend's gaze. She caught sight of Jiang Yuan and was slightly stunned.

"I think I've seen him before, but I don't remember his name."

"What a pity. I feel like he's even more handsome and has more charisma than Xia Qinghou."

Yang Yuwei's eyes sparkled as she spoke.

"Can you stop being such a fangirl? You star-chaser." Luo Xi was speechless.

She had intended to stay home and temper her mental power today, but she had been dragged out by this childhood friend who insisted on watching some martial arts duel to help her relax.

What was so interesting about a competition between two people of the same age?

It wasn't as if it were Xia Qinghou and Qin Nansun.

"Look, look, he's looking over here! This lazy vibe is totally my type!" Yang Yuwei kept a calm expression on the surface, but her tone while speaking to Luo Xi was incredibly excited and giddy.

Luo Xi looked up, and for a split second, her eyes met the boy's.

Her heart jolted.

There was actually a fluctuation of mental power coming from him.

Although it was very subtle, the quality was extremely high!

He was actually a mental-type transitioned martial artist, just like her!!
