The others finished their combat training one after another.

Soon, the training was over.

The most shocking thing about the entire session had not been Lin Qianqian's S-Rank Superpower.

It had been Zhou Fan!

A C-Rank Superpower Esper had successfully taken on four Mutant Beasts!

His performance had outshone even Lin Qianqian's!

As soon as combat training ended, a crowd gathered around him.

"Brother Fan, Brother Fan, how are you so damn awesome?"

"Zhou Fan, I just bought some black stockings. Want to see?"

"Zhou Fan, I bought some white stockings. Want to see?"

"Brother Fan, you're the best! If you don't mind me being a guy, I can warm your bed for you. Teehee..."

Zhou Fan had always ranked first in the entire school and was very popular.

Although plenty of people had mocked him yesterday for awakening a C-Rank Superpower.

But as everyone knew, changing your tune cost nothing.

Yesterday's mockery was yesterday's business.

What did that have to do with today?

Zhou Fan's performance just now had taken everyone by storm.

Who cared whether he had awakened a C-rank or D-rank ability?

He could fight four at once, and they couldn't.

That made him awesome!

People talked up those A-rank and S-Rank Superpowers so much, but none of them had done better than Zhou Fan.

As the saying went, results mattered more than advertising.

Although Zhou Fan had a C-Rank Superpower, his combat performance had been even more outstanding than Lin Qianqian's.

That alone meant no one dared mock him for having a C-Rank Superpower anymore!

"Zhou, you absolute badass!" Zhao Qiu ran over, his face showing no jealousy, only admiration for his buddy.

"You're even better than me with my A-rank ability!"

"If anyone dares mock your C-Rank Superpower again, beat their faces into pig heads!"

Being awesome yourself was certainly fun.

But seeing your buddy be awesome was even more exciting!

"I did all right. Let's keep it low-key." Zhou Fan felt pretty good about it.

Everyone liked being praised and fawned over.

Although he wasn't the type who liked showing off.

This feeling was just too satisfying!

With combat training over, the principal stepped onto the stage.

He said in a clear, carrying voice,

"Today's combat training has concluded successfully. I'm sure you've all learned something new."

"This is only your first step toward becoming Espers. You still have a long road ahead."

"In one month, the nationwide Esper College Entrance Examination will take place."

"That will be your biggest stage!"

"I hope you'll all work hard and get into your ideal Esper University!"

The college entrance examination was a turning point in life that every student had to face!

Getting into a good Esper University would give them access to more resources and allow them to become powerful Espers!

Then the principal came down from the officials' platform and said,

"Zhou Fan, come with me."

Zhou Fan had known he would be called over.

He nodded and followed.

The principal's office.

"Zhou Fan, tell me what's really going on with the ability you awakened," Principal Wang Daochuan asked.

"What else is there to it? A C-rank Spirit Eye System ability. Isn't it all in the records?" Zhou Fan played dumb.

"Don't put on an act with me!" Wang Daochuan's eyes widened.

"After that performance, if that's really what a C-Rank Superpower can do, I'll give you my daughter as your wife!"

Zhou Fan said with a straight face, "Principal, if you want me as your son-in-law, just say so. You don't need to make up an excuse."

"Get lost!"

"Enough of your wisecracks."

"Leaving your ability's rank aside, even an A-rank fire type might not match those fire type skills you just used."

"That is absolutely not the strength a C-rank Spirit Eye System ability should have!"

Wang Daochuan was the principal, after all.

He had witnessed the emergence of many geniuses.

He could tell at a glance what kind of performance an ability of any given rank should produce.

The Fire Release techniques Zhou Fan had used in the arena were definitely powerful enough to rival an A-rank fire type!

"Where did your fire type powers come from?"

"If I'm right, your fire type powers must have emerged from your Spirit Eye System ability, correct?" Wang Daochuan guessed.

"You're right, Principal. My fire type powers did develop from my Spirit Eye System ability." Zhou Fan simply went along with Wang Daochuan's guess and admitted it.

What he had awakened was Madara Uchiha's template.

And the Uchiha Clan's greatest strengths were the Sharingan and Fire Release.

Although Fire Release had nothing to do with the Sharingan.

Since Wang Daochuan had guessed that, Zhou Fan might as well agree and spare himself a lengthy explanation.

This wasn't a world governed by science anyway.

As long as the story held together, any excuse would do.

"I knew it!" Wang Daochuan was thrilled.

He had guessed correctly!

"Principal, calm down a little," Zhou Fan said dryly.

Wang Daochuan looked like a monkey that had just gotten a banana.

All he needed to do was start screeching.

"Ahem!"

Wang Daochuan cleared his throat and regained his composure.

"Currently recorded Spirit Eye System abilities include photographic memory, clairvoyance, laser eyes, and so on, but there are no records of anything related to fire type powers."

"Your Spirit Eye System ability should be the first in history to produce fire type powers."

"Right, show me your spirit eyes."

"Okay."

Zhou Fan focused his gaze. His pitch-black eyes slowly turned scarlet, with three black tomoe revolving slowly within them.

Wang Daochuan looked into those eyes.

Their eerie color and cold ocular power... made him uncomfortable.

It felt as though nothing about him could remain hidden before those eyes.

As if... they could even see through his soul!

"These eyes... can actually put a little pressure on even me." Wang Daochuan was astonished.

He was a third tier powerhouse!

Zhou Fan was only a first tier Esper who had just awakened.

Yet he could make even a third tier Esper feel a little pressure. That alone showed how terrifying the ocular power of those eyes was!

"Zhou Fan, what are those eyes called? Eyes of Fire?"

Since they could produce fire type powers, they ought to have something to do with flames.

"No."

"These eyes are called the Sharingan!" Zhou Fan said.

"Sharingan... a good name."

"Although you awakened a C-Rank Superpower, perhaps your S-rank psychic power allows you to unleash astonishing strength even with a C-Rank Superpower," Wang Daochuan said.

"Abilities may differ in rank, but ultimately, an ability of any rank depends on the Esper who uses it."

"There are no useless abilities, only useless Espers."

"You've awakened an entirely new Spirit Eye System ability. I'm sure you'll shine brightly in the future!"

"Thank you, Principal."

Actually, Zhou Fan really wanted to make a snarky comment.

His awakening of the Sharingan and Fire Release...

Had absolutely nothing to do with any S-rank psychic power.

Everything he had achieved today was thanks to the almighty system!

He was the almighty system's most devout believer!

Without the almighty system, he would never have gotten where he was today!

He wasn't like certain people who took credit for the system's work and claimed it was all thanks to their own hard work.

Shameless bastards!
