Although Xu Mo is the Protagonist, his cheat ability is not a system, so he has no attribute interface or system panel.
His cheat code is his talent: the Infinite Devouring Talent that can be upgraded.
Of course, he wasn't stupid; he knew that once his talent was exposed, he would inevitably become the target of public criticism.
Therefore, he never dared to devour too much each time he activated his Devouring Talent.
Although there was no data panel, he could still Perception the increase or decrease in Qi and Blood and Divine Power.
While a decrease in Qi and Blood may not be immediately Perception, a decrease in Divine Power can cause a significant reaction.
At this moment, Xu Mo felt as if he hadn't slept for several days, extremely tired and exhausted.
I wish I could just fall asleep right away.
However, this feeling is just an illusion.
It's a negative effect caused by a sudden and significant drop in Divine Power.
After a short while, things returned to normal.
After all, his Divine Power is now far superior to that of an ordinary person.
Even if you lose half of your Divine Power, you still have over 100 points.
Xu Mo had no idea what had happened or why activating his Devouring Talent today would have negative effects.
However, he dared not recklessly activate his talent anymore.
Xu Mo's face was extremely pale, and his expression was somewhat flustered.
His Devouring Talent was the foundation of his rise to power.
If his talent is lacking, then his path as Martial Practitioner is over.
Xu Mo was extremely uneasy, his mind racing with all sorts of imagining scenarios.
However, no matter how much he imagined it, he would never have thought that the reason this situation occurred was because of Old Liu's jinx.
Xu Mo guessed that it was because the talent had been used too many times.
As soon as the bell rang, Xu Mo hurriedly ran out of the classroom and headed straight for the school's testing room.
Divine Power cannot be tested.
At least at High Martial Arts School, there's no way to test it.
Unless you pay to go to an official, professional testing organization.
But Xu Mo was penniless; he couldn't afford to pay.
Seeing that he had less than 20 points of Qi and Blood left on the tester, Xu Mo almost fainted.
His Qi and Blood had already reached 170 points, and he had entered the Body Tempering Realm.
But now it has been brutally brought back to its original state.
How could this not make him panic?
"How could this be?" Xu Mo trembled all over, unable to believe what he was seeing.
"Could there be a backlash if I devour too many times?"
He pressed two buttons on the instrument, clearing the test records.
Only then did he leave the testing room, his mind elsewhere.
He had just stepped out of the testing room when a beautiful figure blocked his way.
It was Lin Yuan.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Yuan asked worriedly, seeing Xu Mo's pale face and distraught expression.
"Uh, it's nothing, I probably just stayed up too late cultivating yesterday!"
Are you really okay?
Being shown concern by the beautiful woman improved Xu Mo's mood considerably.
Xu Mo certainly harbored feelings for Lin Yuan, the School Belle.
However, Lin Yuan was constantly being pursued by Ling Yi, Xu Mo, though he had feelings for her, dared not take any action.
Regardless of anything else, Ling Yi is the undisputed heir of Dafeng City.
He, Xu Mo, dares not offend him now.
But now that Lin Yuan has come to him personally and even invited him to dinner, Xu Mo, even though he is wary of Ling Yi, is starting to get carried away.
Moreover, he possesses extraordinary talent and has become somewhat arrogant lately.
He then accepted Lin Yuan's Yaoyue.
"It's alright, I just need to rest for a bit."
"Okay, let's go. I have some questions for you." Lin Yuan hadn't forgotten why she had come to see Xu Mo.
The two went to a restaurant outside the school and ordered a private room.
Lin Yuan ordered the dishes casually, and Xu Mo didn't say a word during the whole process.
While waiting for their food, Lin Yuan didn't immediately ask anything, Xu Mo didn't know what to say either.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.
Lin Yuan didn't speak until the food was served, the waiter closed the door, and left.
"Is your talent devouring?" Lin Yuan asked bluntly.
Xu Mo felt a sudden panic. Holy crap, how did this woman know?
His first thought when he got angry was whether to silence her, but he wasn't sure if Lin Yuan was the only one who knew this secret.
Although Xu Mo was panicking inside, he didn't show it on his face at all.
Instead, he asked with confusion, " Devouring Talent, what's that?"
"You devour others' Qi and Blood, Divine Power, and even lifespan. Do you know how shameful you are?"
" Plunder others to fulfill your own needs, how is your behavior any different from that of the Demon God Sect?"
Xu Mo looked completely puzzled. " Lin Yuan, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
"My talent is accelerated cultivation. What Devouring Talent? Who told you that?"
Lin Yuan frowned and stared at Xu Mo, then slammed the diary onto the dining table.
Xu Mo was shocked, but the guy's expression remained as steady as a rock.
At least on the surface, there are no obvious flaws.
At the same time, he secretly rejoiced that he had been prepared.
Is this your diary?
"A diary? Does anyone still keep a diary these days? I haven't written one in years."
"This isn't your diary?"
"I've never kept a diary. Can I take a look?" Xu Mo asked.
However, Lin Yuan did not give the diary to Xu Mo.
She was worried that Xu Mo would ruin her life.
So she simply opened the diary and showed its contents to Xu Mo.
Xu Mo deliberately leaned closer for a second look.
" Lin Yuan, where did this diary come from? Were you tricked by someone?"
"This diary is the one I found at your house."
"But this diary isn't mine at all; the handwriting isn't mine either!"
"It's not your handwriting, are you sure?"
Xu Mo took out his class notes directly from his schoolbag.
Then it was handed to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan compared them and found that hers was indeed vastly different; it was immediately obvious that they were not written by the same person.
Her face immediately turned furious.
Her first thought was that it was all a scam, a scam arranged by Ling Yi.
At this moment, her disgust for Ling Yi reached its peak.
At this moment, Xu Mo had already taken his diary.
After flipping through it for a moment, he smiled wryly and said, "If it's really as written in the diary, then my current cultivation level is at least at the Qi and Blood Realm Ninth Level Pinnacle."
"But I'm still at the Qi and Blood Second Level!"
"Go to the school's testing room!" Lin Yuan still didn't completely believe Xu Mo.
Indeed, if what is written in the diary is true, then Xu Mo's cultivation level should have already broken through to the Body Tempering Realm!
But if Xu Mo's cultivation level is really only at the Qi and Blood Second Level, then I have wronged Xu Mo.
Half an hour later, Lin Yuan and Xu Mo walked out of the school's testing room.
Lin Yuan gritted her teeth and said, " Ling Yi, you bastard!"
"I'm going to tell the principal! This liar dared to frame his own classmate! I'm making sure the principal expels this trash!"
"A person like that is not fit to be Martial Practitioner."
Xu Mo's heart skipped a beat. " Ling Yi?"
Lin Yuan nodded and recounted everything that had happened the previous night without hiding anything.
Xu Mo was indeed Dawei shocked!
Although Lin Yuan was fooled by him, Xu Mo was very clear about the truth of the matter.
How exactly did Ling Yi know her secret?
They not only knew the details of his talent, but also about his diary.
If it weren't for this unexpected and drastic drop in my Qi and Blood today, things would have been really troublesome.
Hmm? A sudden drop in Qi and Blood? Could this also be related to Ling Yi?
The more Xu Mo thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
His Devouring Talent had never had any problems before, but today it backfired.
Only the person themselves truly understands their own talent.
His Devouring Talent doesn't present any problem with backlash.
If there were any side effects, he should have known about them the moment his talent was awakened.
He'll find out the outcome once he gets a chance to try.
"You're coming with me to the principal's office. This matter absolutely cannot be left unresolved."
Xu Mo pulled Lin Yuan back and shook his head, saying, "It's no use. Don't forget his identity; he's the crown prince of Dafeng City."
"The Ling Clan wields Shrouding the Heavens in Dafeng City. Not only will the principal not expel Ling Yi, but he might even put you in danger!"
Lin Yuan naturally understood this principle, but she was even more furious, and she regarded Ling Yi and the Ling Clan as a cancer in Dafeng City.
" Lin Yuan, strength is everything. You possess dual S-rank talent, and your future achievements are limitless."
"You need to be patient for now. Once you're strong enough, the Ling Clan family can be wiped out with a wave of your hand."
"You're right!" Lin Yuan nodded.
"But is this really the end of it?"
"There's a question: why did Ling Yi do this? I don't think I've offended him."
Lin Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it just to get my attention?"
Xu Mo nodded, but in his heart he didn't agree with this reason at all.
Ling Yi must have been discovered by him when he used his talent.
It's quite possible that Lin Yuan genuinely overheard Ling Yi and the others' conversation by accident.
This gave Xu Mo a tremendous sense of crisis!
Regardless, he needs to improve his strength as soon as possible and then find an opportunity to kill Ling Yi.
His secret talent must never be revealed.
However, according to Lin Yuan's description, Ling Yi's strength is probably not simple; he can fly, which is an ability only those at the Qi Sea Realm possess.
It's impossible for Ling Yi to have reached the Qi Sea Realm.
That's talent.
The practical lesson in the afternoon could be a good opportunity to test the waters.
"I'm afraid things aren't that simple!" Xu Mo said, his eyes darting around.
Even if he wanted to get your attention, he didn't need to frame me.
"Yes!" Lin Yuan was also puzzled.
Lin Yuan wasn't stupid; there were indeed many things that didn't make sense!
Xu Mo continued, guiding the conversation. "Unless he wants to use me to hide something!"
Before Lin Yuan could ask, Xu Mo said, " Ling Yi is right about one thing: our classmates haven't made any progress during this time."
"You mean to say that Ling Yi is the one who truly possesses the Devouring Talent?"
"No, perhaps it's not Devouring Talent; it could be some kind of cultivation technique!"
" The Heaven Devouring Art?" This forbidden cultivation method was the first thing Lin Yuan thought of.
After all, two years ago, a person who cultivated the Heaven Devouring Art appeared in Dafeng City.
It devoured and killed hundreds of Martial Practitioner, causing quite a commotion.
Although he was eventually killed, the incident caused a great stir, and Dafeng City was trending on social media for half a month as a result.
It was after this incident that Lin Yuan and the others learned about the Heaven Devouring Art.
Moreover, it is rumored that the Heaven Devouring Art was hidden somewhere in Dafeng City by that person.
" Ling Yi must have obtained the Heaven Devouring Art; I'm going to report him."
