Except for Lin Dabao, Liu Peipei, and Chen Jia.
Everyone else was utterly stunned.
No one could have imagined that Xiao Ya would actually be a Psychic Master.
A Psychic Master—one in tens of thousands might not even appear.
Even rarer than an Awakened.
Becoming a Psychic Master meant true peerless dominance at the same rank.
Cross-tier battles were just another day for them.
Tricky and lightning-fast attacks, impossible to guard against or block.
Having a Psychic Master as an enemy was nothing short of a nightmare!
Lin Mo glanced at Xiao Ya in shock, then at Chen Jia, and finally at Liu Peipei.
Xiao Ya and Chen Jia—each one was stronger than the last.
Completely beyond Lin Mo's expectations.
So what kind of powerful ability would this Liu Peipei possess?
Thinking this, he couldn't help but look at Lin Dabao, who wore a calm expression with a perpetual smile on his face.
"That fat bastard's got some tricks up his sleeve."
It seemed Lin Fatty hadn't recruited them just because they were good-looking.
Teammates like these would never hold him back—they might even make things a lot easier for him.
As if sensing Lin Mo's gaze, Lin Dabao looked over and grinned at him.
Lin Mo quietly gave a thumbs-up behind his back. Lin Dabao lifted his chin, looking smug in response.
As if to say: The people I, Dabao, pick—how could they be bad?
"Who said you're asking for a beating?"
At that moment, Xiao Ya glared angrily at Huo Zihao.
"I, I..."
Huo Zihao, surrounded by several Flying Daggers, stammered without forming a complete sentence.
Cold sweat had already soaked his entire body.
Cursing inwardly.
How the hell is this my luck? Every time I kick, I hit an iron plate!
First Lin Mo, and now a Psychic Master pops up—each one more freakish than the last!
When Huo Zihao was first selected for the Elite Camp, he was incredibly arrogant.
Especially after reading the profiles of the other selected candidates, he became even more dismissive.
In terms of Blood Qi Value, his 800 calories put him head and shoulders above the rest.
He had even imagined himself entering the Elite Camp, dominating everyone, and crushing all rivals.
Just thinking about it felt amazing!
But what happened?
He couldn't even show off—everywhere he turned, there was an iron plate!
Now he was starting to doubt life itself.
Where did all these freaks come from? Are they even human?
A fat, useless-looking lump he couldn't even push.
A country bumpkin with far lower Blood Qi than him—Lin Mo—whom he couldn't beat.
And now, a harmless-looking Little Loli turned out to be an even more terrifying Psychic Master.
What rotten luck!
"No zuo no die, got it? You're this old and still have no clue—you just had to piss me off."
Xiao Ya lectured him like a patient teacher, scolding Huo Zihao nonstop.
As for Huo Zihao, he was panicking like crazy, not daring to let out a single fart.
With so many Flying Daggers aimed at him, how could he not be scared?
What if something went wrong? Wouldn't his head end up with a few extra holes?
Without completing Fifth Rank Bone Tempering, his skull couldn't withstand those Flying Dagger attacks.
After a while, as if Xiao Ya had vented enough, she withdrew her Flying Daggers.
Huo Zihao's legs nearly gave out, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
He forced himself to stay silent, slinking away with his teammates as they carried the still-unconscious Liu Dong.
"How about it? This young lady's pretty good, right?"
At that moment, Xiao Ya looked at Lin Mo with a roguish grin, as if waiting for praise.
"Impressive, that was seriously impressive!"
Lin Mo gave a thumbs-up, praising her without holding back.
"Hehe, you've got good taste. Sister Peipei, Sister Jiajia, let's go."
After getting the compliment, the girl giggled, linked arms with Liu Peipei and Chen Jia, and headed off in the predetermined direction.
Lin Mo and Lin Dabao exchanged a glance, then followed along.
"Dabao, what ability did Chen Jia awaken?"
When Chen Jia had erupted earlier, he'd only seen a faint orange glow burst from her whole body.
He hadn't noticed any element attached to her attack, so he asked out of curiosity.
"Chen Jia? She awakened a Mutated Strength Attribute."
"Mutated? How does that mutation work?" Hearing that word, Lin Mo was taken aback.
"How to put it... Just think of her as a Berserker. Her strength doubles, and under certain conditions, she gets a few seconds of invincibility, immune to all attacks."
"What? Invincible? Immune to all attacks?"
Lin Mo looked at Lin Dabao, his shock plain on his face.
That was possible? He'd never heard of such a thing.
"Heh, she's special. You can't compare her to normal people. Getting that ability was a stroke of luck for her—can't explain it all in a few words."
"Oh, then... what about Liu Peipei? What ability did she awaken?"
"Her? Hehe, Light Element. A Top Healer!"
"Holy crap!"
Hearing Lin Dabao's words, Lin Mo was stunned.
Who was this fat guy, anyway? Everyone he brought along was top-tier.
Light Element not only granted a massive speed boost, but its real strength lay in recovery and healing.
You could say that if a team had a Light Element martial artist, their endurance would reach its peak.
As they grew, their healing abilities would only get stronger.
With their support, the whole team's staying power would increase dramatically, making them far less afraid of injury.
As long as the damage wasn't fatal or irreversible, a Light Element martial artist could heal it.
Amazed, Lin Mo couldn't help turning to Lin Dabao. "Dabao, what's your ability?"
"Me? Earth Element, hehe. A Top Tank!"
"..."
That figured. Plump as he was, he'd make a good tank.
Lin Mo nodded in full agreement.
"Brother Mo, after all that asking, what's your ability? Last time you fought that Huo Zihao, you didn't even use your awakened power."
"Want to know?"
"Yeah!"
"Not telling you."
"Bro, don't be like that. Tell me, please."
"Fine, since you're so sincere. Hold out your hand, and I'll tell you."
"?"
Hearing that, Lin Dabao was confused. Tell him, sure—but why hold out his hand?
Still, puzzled as he was, he obediently extended his hand.
Lin Mo's lips curled up as he grabbed it.
"Zzzzap~"
In an instant, a powerful current surged through Lin Dabao's entire body.
"Ah!"
With a startled cry, every hair on Lin Dabao's body stood on end from the shock.
And that wasn't all—even the hair on his head shot straight up, smoking faintly.
His lips couldn't help trembling uncontrollably.
"I... I'll go to your Immortal Board, Brother Mo, you're no good, you electrocuted me!"
Amid the curses, Lin Mo laughed heartily and strode off into the distance.
"Wait for me!"
Lin Dabao finally managed to recover, ignored his hair that was now thoroughly electrified into a wild mess, and chased after him.
"Lin Mo, what's that fatty yelling about back there?"
Seeing Lin Mo catch up but not Lin Dabao, Xiao Ya asked curiously.
"Nothing, he asked me to give him a trendy new hairstyle." Lin Mo suppressed a laugh as he spoke.
"You can do hairstyles? When are you gonna give me one?"
Hearing this, Xiao Ya perked up and looked at Lin Mo with interest.
"Uh? Your hairstyle is fine, no need to change it."
"How can that be? Hairstyles need to be changed often to have different vibes. By the way, what trendy hairstyle did you give the fatty?"
Xiao Ya seemed quite interested in trendy hairstyles.
As she asked, she turned her head back, wanting to catch a glimpse of Lin Dabao's new look.
But... when Lin Dabao appeared in her sight, she was dumbfounded.
"Holy crap, forget it, I don't want one! Where's the trendiness in that? He looks just like a porcupine, covered in steel quills!"
"Hahaha!"
Hearing Xiao Ya's words and seeing Lin Dabao's current appearance, everyone burst into laughter.
"Pfft, you're the porcupine, your whole family are porcupines." Lin Dabao, displeased, shot back with curses.
"What did you say?" Xiao Ya raised an eyebrow, and a Flying Dagger immediately floated out.
"Granny, I was wrong, I'm a pig, I'm a porcupine!"
At the sight of the Flying Dagger, Lin Dabao instantly caved.
"That's more like it. Now go, Pipi Pig, clear the way ahead!"
"..." Lin Dabao wanted to cry but had no tears. He shot Lin Mo a fierce glare and silently trudged to the front of the group.
