Chapter 146: Demigod Descent, Super Flight Activated!

Chapter 146: Demigod Descent, Super Flight Activated!

True Martial University.

At the gymnasium, teachers were also tallying the students' performances.

The casualty rate of True Martial University was slightly higher than Jingda Academy, with a total of 17 students unaccounted for...

Up until now, the results of the team led by Zhao Zheng had yet to be announced.

Jiang Hebin, Zhang Chenggang, and the others were all rather nervous.

They had faith in the combination of Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang, but they also feared an unexpected setback that could ruin their performance.

Only Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang themselves remained calm.

Zhao Zheng was confident in his abilities.

As for Song Haitang, she was even more confident than Zhao Zheng!

She believed that with Zhao Zheng's strength, it was impossible for them to fail in the sixth layer of the Spirit Realm.

And indeed...

The next moment, a super notification appeared:

[Notification! Extraordinary Beings 'Zhao Zheng' and 'Song Haitang' have slain 573,391 monsters in the sixth layer of the Spirit Realm and successfully defeated a beast. Their outstanding performance has earned them a Perfect Task Evaluation: SSS Rank!!]



Upon seeing this notification, all the students in the gymnasium turned their attention towards Song Haitang and the others.

Although they had anticipated an impressive performance, everyone was still shocked by the content of the notification.

"Fifty-seven thousand, three hundred and thirty-nine monsters? And they even defeated a beast?"

Even the teachers and leaders were startled by the announcement.

"Is that the correct number of monsters? Did I hear it right?"

"How is that even possible? It's too exaggerated!"

"Even if they were slaying fifty thousand chickens, it would still be exhausting!"

"Not necessarily. Song Haitang is a Natural System Devil Fruit Ability User with long-range attack capabilities, so she can cause massive damage."

The teachers discussed the matter amongst themselves.

The school leaders, on the other hand, were thrilled.

With Song Haitang's performance, True Martial University's ranking in the annual college rankings was bound to improve, perhaps even breaking into the top five!

Once all the students' performances were tallied, a leader announced, "Well done, students! The school has prepared a hearty lunch for you all, so head to the cafeteria and enjoy!"

Hearing this, the students, including Zhao Zheng's group, made their way to the cafeteria.

Upon reaching the cafeteria, they gathered around a long table, chatting as they enjoyed their meals.

Jiang Hebin and the others continuously expressed their gratitude to Song Haitang and Zhao Zheng.

This time, the rewards were different from before, as the extra rewards were now distributed to each team member.

With 500 Spirit Energy Points divided among ten people, each person received 50 points.

Combined with the 350 Spirit Energy Points awarded to each individual, a total of 400 Spirit Energy Points could be obtained!

This was an incredible amount, and it would take them at least two to three months to accumulate such points on their own, assuming they were lucky...

After finishing their meal, they continued their conversation.

They wanted to strengthen their bond with Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang.

The eighth layer of the Spirit Realm was also a team-based Spirit Realm for ten people!

They wanted to join Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang's team...

At this moment, Zhao Zheng became aware of something in his pocket and subconsciously took it out.

It was an old and tattered scroll.

The instant he took it out, his left eye displayed:

[Superhuman item discovered...]



[Skill: Demigod Descent!]



[Appear in the form of a demigod!]



[Skill Effect: When descending from the sky, you will land with great force, causing vibrations, ground fissures, and widespread destruction. The extent of the destruction is related to the user's strength attribute, with higher strength resulting in more powerful devastation.]



[Warning: This skill is immensely powerful. After landing, it affects both allies and enemies within the destruction range, causing varying degrees of damage to all targets. Use with caution.]



Zhao Zheng was stunned by the notification in his left eye.

This "Demigod Descent" skill, both in name and effect, resembled the ultimate ability of "Lu Bu" in the game Honor of Kings!

However...

This skill was right up his alley.

It was the type of skill he favored.

"Zhao Ge, what's this?" Wang Fei, sitting next to Zhao Zheng, couldn't help but ask.

Chen Kai also noticed the scroll in Zhao Zheng's hand and immediately explained, "It's a Superhuman Scroll, which records Superhuman Skills."

Zhao Zheng nodded and added, "It's probably a reward from the fifth layer of the Spirit Realm. I obtained it in the sixth layer and brought it out."

In the fifth layer of the Spirit Realm, Zhao Zheng had been the captain, leading the team to victory and earning the championship.

Therefore, it wasn't surprising to the group that Zhao Zheng had received this reward.

Although everyone was curious about the Superhuman Skill Zhao Zheng had obtained, they wisely refrained from asking further questions.

Even Wang Fei understood that prying into others' Superhuman Skills was considered impolite.

Zhao Zheng didn't offer any explanations either; he simply tore open the scroll and integrated the skill.

...

Eight days had passed.

The last time Zhao Zheng, Song Haitang, and the others had ventured into the sixth layer of the Spirit Realm, they had achieved an SSS-class task evaluation, making it to the hot search again, although the intensity had diminished compared to the previous occasions.

This was because...

People had grown accustomed to their achievements...

If they ever stumbled and obtained poor results, it would likely cause a stir once more.

As netizens put it, people were still paying attention, eagerly awaiting the day when they could witness Song Haitang's future accomplishments!

Oh, and there was another hot search topic about Jingda's genius student, Ma Jun, who had failed in the sixth layer of the Spirit Realm! Rumor had it that some Jingda administrators had been reprimanded due to this incident...

In the early morning, as Zhao Zheng opened his eyes, numerous notifications appeared in his left eye:

[Physical attribute reached 2000. The enhancement effect of Steel Body has been further increased...]



[Strength attribute reached 2000. The enhancement effect of Super Strength has been further increased...]



[Agility attribute reached 2000. The hidden talent of Kryptonian Bloodline, Super Flight, has been activated!]



[Super Flight: Also known as Anti-Gravity Flight, is one of the innate abilities of the Kryptonian Bloodline. Upon activation, it enables the body to generate anti-gravity, freeing it from the constraints of gravity, allowing for flight. In addition to flight, the body can also hover freely in the air.]



[Notification: Super Flight is influenced by Agility. The higher the Agility, the faster the flight speed!]



Upon seeing these notifications, Zhao Zheng was overjoyed and immediately got out of the sunbathing machine.

He then opened his attribute panel:

Race: Human.

Physical: 2000

Spiritual: 58

Strength: 2000

Agility: 2000

Talent: Kryptonian Bloodline [Steel Body 3, Super Strength 3, Super Flight].

Skills: Fist Bone Impact, Armored Color Dominance (Master), Demigod Descent.

Spirit Energy Points: 745.

...

This was Zhao Zheng's current attribute panel.

In the Talent section, he had acquired the Super Flight ability, and the numbers following Steel Body and Super Strength had changed to 3, indicating that the enhancement effects of these abilities had reached three times their original power!

If one were to include the boost from Armored Color Dominance, Zhao Zheng's Physical and Strength attributes would theoretically surpass 10,000!

It was truly awe-inspiring, especially considering that he was still a freshman who had just completed the sixth layer of the Spirit Realm.

The only explanation was that the Super Physical Talent was incredibly overpowered.

"Can I fly now?" Zhao Zheng felt a subtle yet distinct change in his body, which he suspected was the Super Flight ability.

He was eager to test his newfound flight capabilities.

However, as he was currently in the dormitory, he feared losing control and crashing through the walls...

To be safe, he decided to wait.

Zhao Zheng decided to leave the school and conduct his tests outdoors. The principal had previously asked him to move back to the dormitory, but unlike Song Haitang, he wasn't completely restricted in his freedom. Zhao Zheng was allowed to leave the school occasionally, which was why he agreed to move back. This also indicated that the school and the higher-ups still prioritized Song Haitang over him.

Zhao Zheng hailed a car and headed into the wilderness. This time, he chose a different location from where he had previously tested his punching power. The reason was that the commotion he caused last time was quite significant, and he worried that someone might have installed surveillance there.

After a while, Zhao Zheng reached a remote area. Standing in the wilderness, he prepared to test his flight ability. He closed his eyes slightly, sensing the unique power within his body, and then began to free himself from the constraints of gravity.

The next moment, Zhao Zheng's body slowly floated up and eventually hovered in mid-air. It seemed as if he was standing in the air, though he was a bit unsteady, swaying back and forth, as if he might fall at any moment.

Flight! It was undoubtedly one of humanity's ultimate dreams! Who hasn't dreamed of flying freely and effortlessly through the sky, soaring across the heavens? So, when Zhao Zheng opened his eyes and realized he was truly flying, he couldn't help but show a delighted and excited expression.

He was incredibly thrilled! And because of his excitement, he immediately lost control of himself and fell from the sky.

"Plop!"

The ground was even dented by the impact.

Zhao Zheng climbed out of the dent, his face still filled with an excited smile. With his current body, falling from a height of several dozen meters was nothing to worry about. He didn't even feel a hint of pain.

Next, Zhao Zheng continued to practice his flight, slowly rising into the air. After trying to fly dozens of times, he finally gained control of his body and stood firmly in the sky.

Subsequently, Zhao Zheng returned to the ground. His previous flights had all been at a slow pace. Now, he wanted to learn the techniques of rapid flight, just like a true superhero...

Zhao Zheng knelt on one knee, placing one fist on the ground. "Huff!"

A weak hurricane formed around his body.

The next moment, a thunderous boom shook the ground.

Zhao Zheng's entire body shot into the sky like a bolt of lightning. He was flying, and at an incredible speed! A stunning vortex of air formed around his body, a phenomenon that occurred when flight speed exceeded the speed of sound.

Indeed, Zhao Zheng's flight speed had already surpassed the speed of sound. Super flight was truly powerful! At this moment, Zhao Zheng's entire body resembled a fierce fighter jet, swiftly piercing through the clouds.

With his steel-like body, Zhao Zheng's physique was incredibly robust, and the air resistance and atmospheric pressure from high-speed flight had no effect on him. He even felt an impulse to break through the atmosphere and take a look at outer space...

Fortunately, Zhao Zheng managed to calm down. His current body lacked the most crucial aspect of a superhero, the "biological force," and he couldn't survive in outer space yet.

Additionally, Zhao Zheng had previously speculated that the sun was being devoured by some terrifying entity. If he broke through the atmosphere, he might draw the attention of this unknown being.

His current strength wasn't sufficient! Directly confronting this unknown entity would undoubtedly be very dangerous.

Therefore, Zhao Zheng released his control over himself, allowing gravity to take over. At this height of several thousand meters, he could even see the outline of South Korea with his enhanced vision.

An idea flashed through Zhao Zheng's mind. Should he fly to the peninsula right now and eliminate that old man? But as soon as the thought appeared, he dismissed it.

The peninsula was home to incredibly powerful individuals. His current strength wasn't enough to crush them, and if he were discovered, there might be unforeseen dangers.

Moreover, Zhao Zheng had heard that the old man had been hospitalized in the ICU several months ago due to a sudden illness and was still in a coma. If he weren't from a wealthy family, treatment might have been discontinued long ago.

According to Zhao Zheng's deduction, the probability of the old man dying from the illness was very high. There was no need for him to take action.

If the old man woke up again in the future, Zhao Zheng would deal with him then.

Zhao Zheng was aware that as Song Haitang's important teammate, he had likely already drawn attention...
