393: Second Reincarnation
In the 72nd year of the Great Xia Martial King Era, Emperor Li Shiming passed the throne to Crown Prince Crown Prince.
Crown Prince ascended the throne as Emperor, with the era name Rende.
"Uncle has finally abdicated. Otherwise, I was really afraid that my cousin, the Crown Prince, wouldn't be able to resist shouting, 'How can there be a Crown Prince for seventy years!' and then rebel!"
Su Yu was now so old he was barely recognizable; a Mortal's Lifespan ultimately has its limits.
However, being able to see the Crown Prince ascend the throne within his lifetime filled him with myriad emotions.
Decades had passed, and while things remained, the people had changed. In the current Duke of Zhen State's Manor, new faces had replaced the old, but those with cultivation remained unchanged.
Su Yu's parents in this life were both experts in the Mountain Moving Realm with Lifespans of over three hundred years; they were only in their forties when they had him.
Now, having to see their child pass before them filled the manor with grief, the sorrow as mournful as the chirping of cicadas.
Even though they traveled far and wide seeking ways to extend his life, they could not delay Su Yu's aging.
As for Nian Wei, she had already stepped into the Martial God Realm ten years ago.
Spending every day by Su Yu's side and being nourished by his immortal soul had long since improved her Aptitude; Su Yu would have found it strange if she hadn't reached the Martial God Realm.
Because her cultivation had reached the Martial God Realm, Su Yu sent her to expand the territory and slay demons and evil spirits.
The situation for the Human Race had improved significantly; after all, a young and extremely powerful Martial God was much more useful than those old fellows.
In just ten years, she had completely wiped out the ghost nests on the Great Xia border.
This caused the ghost king, who was comparable to the Nascent Soul Stage, to be cut short, leaving it with only the strength of the Core Formation Mid-stage.
Furthermore, it was hunted down by Nian Wei; if the ghost king hadn't run fast, it likely would have died at her hands.
As for Han Ming, he was also a Martial God, but back then, in his pursuit of power through killing ghosts, he had inadvertently damaged his Foundation.
He still hadn't recovered, and his temperament had changed drastically; his hatred for ghostly creatures was truly terrifying.
Fortunately, he wasn't as brutal toward the Human Race.
However, since becoming a Martial God, he had lost the System; after all, that was just something Su Yu's original body had created out of a wicked sense of humor.
Since he had already reached the Peak of this world, it naturally couldn't be kept.
Otherwise, how could he be made to continue reincarnating and serve as Su Yu's test subject?
"Young Master..."
Su Yu lay in the grand armchair for a very long time, memories of this life flashing through his mind like a revolving lantern.
There was no reluctance, only joy.
Until his eyes could no longer open, and right before his consciousness dissipated, Su Yu vaguely heard Nian Wei's voice.
The voice was thick with grief, reluctance, and pain.
"Nian Wei, don't cry..."
This was the last sentence Su Yu spoke before his Reincarnation.
But it left Nian Wei heartbroken.
This should be enough to inspire the girl to shine on the path of martial arts.
Su Yu had already paved the way for her; it remained to be seen if she could walk a path untrodden by predecessors, break through the Martial God Realm, and ascend to the Xuanxiao Realm created by his original body... "Su Yu, still sleeping! The college entrance exam is tomorrow. Are you ready to awaken your Superpower?"
A somewhat plump middle-aged woman walked to Su Yu's desk and rapped it hard, startling the sleeping Su Yu awake.
A hint of confusion appeared in Su Yu's eyes as he looked around carefully, only to find himself in a classroom.
Furthermore, a set of memories that didn't belong to him surfaced in his mind.
"...I've reincarnated into the body of another of my soul fragments?!"
Su Yu was somewhat speechless.
The owner of this body was also a soul fragment of Su Yu that had reincarnated into this world.
However, because the original body encountered some trouble during cultivation, causing some soul fragments to perish directly, those like him who were reincarnating normally were reborn into their other soul fragments.
"Forget it, since I'm already here."
Su Yu quickly accepted his new identity.
Source Star, Xia Country Federation, a student in Class 3 of Kyoto Key High School No. 1, orphaned, with excellent grades.
This world had no immortal or martial paths, only Superpowers.
Superpowers encompassed all sorts of strange abilities.
However, it was all due to the influence of the broken Great Dao of the Lesser Primordial Era.
To the extent that some ants comparable to the Foundation Establishment Stage could actually master the power of the Law of Time in this environment.
Even if they couldn't even freeze a Core Formation Cultivator, they had indeed mastered it.
This was the uniqueness of such a world.
Superpower abilities were divided into eight Ranks: SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, E, and F.
The strongest SSS-Rank ability was only equivalent to a Foundation Establishment Cultivator; it was just that the intensity of the Superpower was larger in range than that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
However, the dissipation of the ability would also be much higher—essentially sacrificing power to expand the range.
Their Xia Country Federation was a Superpower powerhouse, with seven experts possessing SSS-Rank abilities alone!
Even the Lamp Country only had five.
In this world, there were both Awakened and supernatural beasts.
They were mutated monsters that possessed Superpowers.
Their Superpower Ranks were similar to those of the Awakened.
The annual college entrance exam was the moment for these students to awaken their Superpower abilities.
After the ability Awakened, cultivation was still required to increase strength.
Strength was divided into Ranks One through Nine; above Rank Nine was the Spirit Rank, followed by the Saint Rank.
Upon reaching the Spirit Rank, the Lifespan of an ordinary human could increase to one hundred and fifty years.
And the Saint Rank was around three hundred years.
Ranks One through Nine did not increase Lifespan.
"Su Yu, did you hear me! Go stand in the back!"
Seeing Su Yu still in a daze, the plump middle-aged woman slammed the desk again and berated him.
She utterly looked down on orphans like Su Yu who had no money or influence; if he hadn't gotten into the Key High School No. 1, she likely would never have crossed paths with him in her life!
"Shut up!"
Su Yu's ears hurt from the plump woman's noise, so he grabbed a book and threw it at her.
In an instant, the entire classroom went silent.
A geography book struck the plump woman in the face, instantly twisting her features and nose out of alignment.
Su Yu ignored her completely and walked straight out of the classroom.
Anyway, he was a top student at Key High School No. 1, even though he had been temporarily transferred to Class 3, an elite class for the Superpower college entrance exam.
But even if he made a mistake, the school wouldn't hold him accountable, especially with the college entrance exam approaching.
Even if he couldn't awaken a Superpower ability, he could switch back to liberal arts; with the original owner's grades, getting into a top university would be more than enough.
"Come back here! You've completely lost it!"
After Su Yu left, he only heard the plump woman's hysterical cursing.
"The Superpower college entrance exam requires preparing an Awakening Potion. On the day of the exam, one must drink the potion and then touch an Awakening Stone to awaken.
Failing to awaken a Superpower means failure, indicating a lack of Superpower talent.
As for why I was targeted by Wang Maque, it's because I wanted to buy it myself instead of going through this homeroom teacher's channel to have her buy it for me."
An Awakening Potion costs twenty thousand yuan, but having her buy it requires an extra ten thousand. Only a sucker would agree to such a rip-off."
After sorting through the memories in his head, Su Yu felt somewhat speechless.
He didn't expect to encounter such an eccentric teacher even here.
However, the reason she dared to be so arrogant was that her husband was the Dean of Students; otherwise, no one would let a mere homeroom teacher pocket ten thousand yuan for nothing.
After all, this was Kyoto, and a key high school at that, a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Without some background, she'd be finished if anyone decided to investigate.
