Astral Apostle
/ Astral Apostle Chapter 47 – Super (2)
Li Xiaoyin explained matter-of-factly.
There were many types of superpowers in the world, and each had its own cultivation methods. Every set had its own standards for differentiating realms. Some superpowers could not even be cultivated or developed.
Therefore, in order to facilitate statistics and management, the Interstellar Joint Government did not differentiate the strength of Supers according to any system. Instead, they let Supers take the test themselves!
The Supers Bureau stipulated the strength level of all Supers. No matter what ability a person had, as long as their strength reached the corresponding level and they passed the relevant assessment, they would be assigned to a certain rank.
The higher their rank, the better the treatment.
The current Super level system was divided into seven ranks, each with a different badge and name. However, for the sake of convenience, most people directly used the rank system.
Ranks 1 and 2 belonged to the grassroots. Rank 3 and 4 were the backbone of the human race's strength, where the majority lay. Their actual strength was already very shocking, and those Rank 5 and above belonged to the category of high-level Supers.
As for the peak Rank 7 Supers, there were only a mere few dozen of them even today, when the total population of civilization was already in the trillions.
Supers who had just registered were only at the Preparatory Level because they did not have the time to take the test. They only received the most basic treatment. This was the case for Li Xiaoyin.
“I see…”
Zhang Xiao understood the situation better now. He shook his chin and asked curiously, “Then what is your ability? What rank do you think it can reach?”
Xu Lingyun rubbed his stubble and analyzed it seriously.
“Xiaoyin… Oh, no, Big Sister Yin! Speaking of which, you're usually so violent… I mean, you can fight, so you can't have awakened a superpower like extraordinary strength, right?”
Hearing this, Zhang Xiao nodded vigorously in agreement. “Maybe she's like that Super League player who can directly transform into an ape beast!”
“Yes, yes, yes. This ability is simply tailor-made for Sister Yin!” Xu Lingyun gave a thumbs up.
“… Are you two crazy ?”
The corner of Li Xiaoyin's eyes twitched as she clenched her fists, her knuckles making menacing popping sounds.
Zhou Jing smiled and interrupted, “So I'm also quite curious about your ability.”
“Right, no more jokes.” Xu Lingyun waved his hand, his unshaven face full of interest. “Sister Yin, show us your skills and broaden our horizons.”
“Well… the Supers Bureau made me sign a lot of agreements. One of them is that I don't advocate using my abilities in my daily life unless it's necessary. My allowance will be deducted.”
Li Xiaoyin blinked.
Zhang Xiao quickly said, “Then don't use it here. We can't possibly force you to deduct your money.”
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyin raised her eyebrows and smiled nonchalantly.
“Heh, who cares about the agreement? Since my brothers want to see it, I'll use it a little. It's just a little money. If you want to deduct it, so be it!”
With that, before the three of them could continue asking questions, she raised a finger and carefully tapped it on the table.
Dong.
With the point of contact between the fingertip and the table as the center, a faint white wave of air suddenly burst out.
The force was very light. The bowls and plates on the table jumped at the same time and were pushed outwards.
Two plates even fell off the table. Fortunately, Zhou Jing reacted quickly and caught them.
Li Xiaoyin raised her eyebrows proudly. “I'm not familiar with it yet, so I still can't control the power well. Fortunately, I didn't break anything… How is it? Do you understand?”
Xu Lingyun blinked and hesitated for a moment before nodding.
“I understand. Your ability is to fart with your fingers.”
“Get lost.” Li Xiaoyin scolded jokingly, “It's to release shock waves, you silly sh*t!”

“That's true. A fart isn't that strong unless it's a special kind.” Xu Lingyun agreed.
Zhou Jing couldn't help but interrupt, “Are you trying to make things difficult for us? I suspect that you're deliberately affecting our appetite so that you can snatch our food later.”
“Eh, how are you so smart today?”
Xu Lingyun was shocked.
Zhou Jing held his forehead, not wanting to continue this dirty topic.
Speaking of which, as long as the strength of the shock wave was increased, it seemed to be quite the fierce skill.
Based on his many years of experience watching the Supers League, this was most likely another powerful style of combat.
He turned to look at Li Xiaoyin and said thoughtfully, “Your ability seems quite powerful. As long as you develop it well and increase its intensity, its destructive power will be astonishing.”
“Right, right? I think so too!” Li Xiaoyin nodded excitedly.
“Moreover, this is clearly a destructive ability. It's more than enough to survive in the Super League. When the time comes, you might even become a celebrity player.”
“That's right!”
“If you don't want to play in the Supers League, it's not a bad choice to join the Supernatural Bureau directly. If you get an official position, you'll be walking on a paved golden road.”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“…”
Zhou Jing looked at Li Xiaoyin, who was nodding in agreement and was a little speechless.
“Did you not think about what you wanted to do after you have superpowers?”
Li Xiaoyin scratched her head in embarrassment. Her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled like a silly dog. “I was too busy thinking about sharing the good news with you guys. I haven't thought about this carefully.”
“… You're still so carefree.”
Zhou Jing was helpless and could not help but laugh.
Although there were some conflicts regarding the interstellar development of various countries, they were all small problems. Superhumans did not have much use for their abilities. If they wanted to display their abilities in battle, they could only go to the Supers League. That was a legal arena and also the most popular program.
If they became famous, they could still be celebrities. There were advertisements, endorsements, acting invitations, and various other benefits. It was a popular choice for Superhumans to work in.
As for the rest of the employment directions, although they would still have a lot of choices, they were generally similar to ordinary people. It was just that their treatment would be slightly better, and the form of work they did would be a little different. In addition, as Supers, they would naturally be more popular in their workplace.
According to the information Zhou Jing had found, it was a peaceful era now. Materialistically, it could barely be considered a prosperous era as well. Other than dealing with some terrorism and illegal supers organizations, there was no need for the combat power of Supers. Even interstellar development and interstellar exploration rarely required Supers, so “management” was more important than “use.”
Most of the time, Supers were just an ordinary part of society. Although they did not have to work hard to survive, they could not do whatever they wanted. The law was still more important than anything else.
Li Xiaoyin could release shock waves. From the looks of it, it seemed to be much stronger than the Mutant Blood Warrior system in the Mutant World. After all, the Physical Enhancement category was a little monotonous.
However, Zhou Jing was not discouraged. The Mutant Blood Warrior system was the only supernatural power that he had a chance of obtaining at the moment. It was enough for him to become a Super and satisfy the needs of his plan.
He was not a competitive person. He would never despise what he was given just because others had better ones, not to mention that Li Xiaoyin was his best friend.
Moreover, in the long run, there were infinite possibilities for astral travel. As long as he explored it, he would have a chance to discover more supernatural powers.
At this moment, Zhang Xiao suddenly said something that stunned everyone.
“It's said that after every Super who awakens naturally will obtain an assistant slot. They will have the authority to buy a gene potion and give it to the chosen assistant to use… Xiaoyin, why don't you sell this slot to me?”
