Akashi Seijuro Template? (2)

Chi Tong froze, waves crashing through his heart. Another personality?

His brows drew tightly together, countless thoughts racing through his mind. But he quickly realized the key lay in that ball of light.

After the ball of light vanished, the figure in his consciousness appeared. Could it be... A faint guess surfaced in his mind, but he did not know whether this was good or bad for him.

He took a deep breath and tried asking, "Although, from what you mean, the two of us are one, our thoughts cannot communicate with each other, can they?"

Ren Ying fell silent and did not immediately answer Chi Tong.

Seeing this, Chi Tong knew he had guessed correctly. He continued, "As expected. You were born from that ball of light. If so, you should know some things I don't, right?"

The figure's cold gaze flickered repeatedly, but he had no intention of hiding anything. He said bluntly, "That is indeed the case. I do know some things. There is no harm in telling you; you will learn them sooner or later anyway."

"Hmph!"

The figure paused, as though organizing his thoughts, before speaking again. "Actually, my appearance has no direct connection to that ball of light. If I had to put it another way, it was because of the ball of light that you and I developed two different personalities."

Chi Tong said nothing, repeatedly turning the other party's words over in his mind.

According to him, the reason Chi Tong had split into two personalities was entirely due to the eruption of that ball of light.

As for why the ball of light could divide his personality in two, he would leave that aside for now. What he wanted to know was exactly what that ball of light was.

Just then, the figure spoke again. "You and I were originally one; there is nothing more to say about that."

"But you vaguely saw those eyes too, didn't you?"

At those words, Chi Tong's pupils contracted. He recalled the pair of eyes standing between heaven and earth as the figure prompted, "Didn't you notice?"

"Your vision is clearer than before."

Only then did Chi Tong turn his attention to his vision. What he did not notice was that halos were gleaming within his crimson-gold and scarlet pupils, giving them an especially sinister air.

He discovered that everything before his eyes was countless times clearer than before. Details that had once been difficult to notice were now plainly visible, and he could even accurately predict the flight paths mosquitoes and other insects would take in advance.

Chi Tong was utterly stunned. These eyes that could see through the future... He finally knew why they felt so familiar. Weren't they Akashi Seijuro's Eye of Heaven?

The next moment, Chi Tong's vision blurred, followed by a wave of dizziness. His incomparably clear vision immediately returned to normal.

What was going on?

Chi Tong narrowed his eyes wearily.

At that moment, the figure's voice rang out again. "Do not casually use the Eye of Heaven's ability. Although the Eye of Heaven is powerful, it consumes a tremendous amount of mental energy. With this body's current mental strength, you cannot use these eyes for long."

Chi Tong did not argue. He already felt as though his mind had been hollowed out. Was it because he was still too young?

The Eye of Heaven was the ability granted by that ball of light.

Though he did not understand the principle behind it, judging by the body's brief sensation earlier, this body should possess the same talent as Akashi Seijuro.

The figure reminded him thoughtfully.

Hearing that, Chi Tong had come to the same conclusion.

Considering his hair color, his eyes, and now Akashi Seijuro's Eye of Heaven, could the strange sensation in his body earlier truly have been caused by a change in his talent?

Did that mean he had gained a talent template like Akashi Seijuro's?

The sun rose and the moon set, and time flew by. In the blink of an eye, two years had passed. After that day, Chi Tong's life returned to normal.

But only Chi Tong himself knew that he was now vastly different from before.

Although he usually acted no differently than usual and treated others kindly, an inexplicable impulse always lurked deep within his heart.

Chi Tong knew it was his other personality at work. If he did not deliberately suppress it, he feared he would become that cold, emotionless person who radiated an intense aura of danger.

Of course, it was also possible that this was because he was still too young.

Although he had seemingly gained Akashi Seijuro's talent, Chi Tong had not decided whether he would get involved with basketball in the future.

To put it bluntly, his family was already prominent, and he lacked nothing. Just because he lived in the world of Slam Dunk did not mean he had to play basketball.

That was what he thought, and that was what he did.

Over the two years, Chi Tong's life passed as though nothing had happened. Everything appeared exceptionally peaceful.

Of course, to ordinary people, Chi Tong was practically a god at school. No matter what he did, he steadily held first place.

Chi Tong also truly experienced the ability he had gained after transmigrating. He really could succeed at anything as easily as eating and drinking. When the girls at school saw him, their eyes sparkled like stars, which made quite a few boys jealous of Chi Tong. Some boys with bad intentions even secretly decided to teach him a lesson.

Chi Tong was now a fourth-grade student. At Rainbow Elementary School, fourth graders were required to choose a club to join.

Rainbow Elementary School had many clubs, broadly divided into two types: sports clubs and cultural clubs.

Looking at the dazzling array of club introductions, Chi Tong did not know which one to choose for a while.

Before long, the name of one club entered his sight: Basketball Club.

Looking at the words Basketball Club, Chi Tong fell into thought.

Just then, three boys surrounded Chi Tong, looking at him with unfriendly expressions.

Chi Tong slightly raised his eyes, glanced at the three of them, and said blandly, "Do you need something?"

Chi Tong recognized them. These three were troublemaking brats at school. They had provoked him before, but he had never bothered with them. They were just a bunch of little kids.

But because of that, their resentment toward Chi Tong had only grown stronger.

"Chi Tong, when we get to the club, do you dare compete with us?"

One of the tall boys said arrogantly.

Chi Tong replied directly, "Not interested."

"Are you scared?"

"If you are, be my lackey from now on."

The tall boy said slyly.

Chi Tong could not be bothered to argue with him. He stood up and prepared to leave, but at that moment, the two boys beside the tall boy immediately blocked his path.

"What, trying to run away?"

"You can leave if you want, but you have to apologize to our boss."

"That's right. As long as you obediently listen to us from now on, we'll let you go."

The tall boy's two lackeys boasted loudly.

Chi Tong's expression remained unchanged, and he was not angered in the slightest by their words. Still, he could not keep letting these three pester him.

He turned to look at the tall boy and said in an indifferent tone, "What do you want to compete in?"
