93: Customization level!

Ye Su's methods of wielding this power were still quite rudimentary.

Directly blasting it!

Or channeling it into a weapon to make it indestructible!

It was very simple and effective.

As for other functions, he hadn't discovered any yet.

But that was all he could do for now.

The global Professional progression was currently at this stage; perhaps there would be clues later on.

Thinking of this,

Ye Su opened his eyes.

He slowly stood up.

Instantly, his entire body emitted a sizzling sound, like silk being stretched.

This was the sound of skin stretching and contracting.

The White Head Great Profound Scripture had granted his blood qi a new strengthening ability.

It targeted one specific area:

The skin.

A strengthening ability for the skin!

Now, Ye Su's skin likely possessed a certain level of immunity to ordinary blades.

His strike resistance and healing capabilities had both received a massive boost.

As time progressed, this strengthening would only become more and more terrifying.

Ye Su walked out of the secret room with a smile.

This trip had been a bountiful harvest.

Not to mention the ability of the blood qi to specifically strengthen one area,

that special power alone had increased his combat strength by a large margin.

If he had possessed this ability when fighting the Dragon Wolf,

the Dragon Wolf would likely have been killed instantly.

Even against that Mountain Lord, Ye Su wanted to go up and trade a few blows.

For no other reason than his attack power being too strong!

"Captain Ye, you're out," Black Tiger greeted him.

"Yeah. Where's Stof?"

"He went back. The Russian side was pushing very hard, so he didn't dare stay any longer."

"Understandable. By the way, did we get a specimen of the Dragon Whale's Symbiont?"

Ye Su asked.

The Symbiont was a Rank 3.5 Spirit Medicine; the potion created from it should belong to the no. 3.5 potion series.

It would have an enhancing effect on his Physique.

"We've already obtained the sample!" Li Qing said as he walked over at that moment.

"It was airlifted the whole way. I started researching it immediately after it arrived, and it can indeed produce the no. 3.5 potion."

"The process is currently moving forward rapidly. I'll strive to produce the no. 3.5 potion you need in the shortest time possible."

Li Qing pushed up the glasses on his nose, his eyes bloodshot as he spoke.

He was also a workaholic.

Fortunately, there were plenty of potions, allowing him to push his Physique to over 20 points.

However, he hadn't obtained a profession scroll.

It wasn't just him.

Currently, many Professionals had Physiques exceeding 10 points,

but they still remained in the Awakened Ranks because they lacked class change scrolls.

Awakened could be pushed forward with potions, but class change scrolls wouldn't work—there simply weren't enough of them.

The Rain Water solar term just wouldn't drop them.

It was truly infuriating!

"That's good then."

Ye Su responded.

Li Qing understood Ye Su very well.

To Ye Su, wealth and merit weren't important.

Only what could advance his combat strength was most important.

After all, in Ye Su's perception,

violence was the greatest power!

As long as one wielded violence, any political schemes or factions were a joke.

Just like his current status.

It wasn't because Ye Su had major merit that Great Xia gave him the Suzhou and Hangzhou.

It was because Ye Su stood here, so the Suzhou and Hangzhou could not be given to anyone else!

"Alright, is there anything else? If not, I'm going home to Cultivate."

Ye Su spoke with the voice of a grind-master.

Li Qing and Black Tiger exchanged a glance and said,

"There is indeed something."

"The Professional process has been underway for a while now."

"But the Ranks of Professionals haven't been truly established yet."

"Although there's a follow-up plan for Professionals to advance in stages, as of now, there's no basis for it."

"So, the higher-ups have a plan to establish the Ranks for Professionals."

"It would be best if you could participate in it."

Indeed.

For something like establishing Professional Ranks, if Ye Su didn't participate, it would lack authority!

As for why they wanted to establish Ranks,

it was simple.

To make management easier.

Not just for Great Xia's administration, but for management in other matters as well.

For example, a Professional with 40 Physique points compared to one with 20 points.

Their combat strength was worlds apart.

The resources they required were also different.

Their compensation should also be different.

Yet some Professionals with 25 Physique points had explosive combat strength, even stronger than those with 35 points.

How should the compensation be planned then?

Should I get less than the 35-point guy just because I have 25 Physique points?

But I can totally crush him in combat.

Does it mean that every time before accepting a mission or anything else, I have to fight someone to prove my combat strength?

It was troublesome, very troublesome.

After the merit system matured, too many disputes had occurred because of such things.

Therefore,

Great Xia had to consider customizing the Professional Rank plan in advance.

"How will it be established?"

Ye Su said.

Establishing this was indeed necessary.

"If you participate, then experts and scholars from all over the country will come here. Then, in our Suzhou and Hangzhou, we will set the Professional Ranks."

Li Qing said.

"Fine!"

Ye Su nodded.

If he didn't have to travel, he would agree to it.

Better to let others run around than to do it himself, right?

"Alright, I'll report the news. It should be in the next couple of days."

"OK, then I'm going back to Cultivate."

Ye Su said, then left.

Having just obtained a new power, he wanted to go back and get a good feel for it.

After Ye Su left,

Li Qing also went to get busy.

Meanwhile, Black Tiger sneakily slipped into the secret room.

Soon, the buckled metal floor caught his attention.

He gently rubbed it with his finger, his eyes full of horror.

"This is aircraft carrier steel, transferred from above to build a panic room for Li Qing!"

"These marks..."

"Is he still human?"

Black Tiger was bewildered, his heart filled only with shock.

Ye Su was practically sprinting down the path of evolution!

---In various cities across the country, planes were rapidly taking off.

Various research teams and some of the top Professionals gathered in the Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Because this time, the officials were going to set the Ranks for Professionals.

This move caused quite a stir.

Some chuunibyou types submitted suggestions to the officials.

"Blood Moving Realm! Once a Professional exceeds 10 Physique points, their blood qi manifests itself. Isn't Blood Moving Realm very reasonable?"

Hmm, very reasonable, then throw it away.

"Foundation Establishment Stage! Look, as our Physique increases, doesn't it look like laying the foundation for cultivation? Calling it Foundation Establishment Stage is reasonable, right?"

Hmm, very reasonable, throw it away!

"Rank A! Just use 20 Physique points as one Rank, and so on. There are 26 letters; we won't run out, definitely won't run out! This is reasonable enough, right?"

Hmm, very reasonable, throw it away!

...

Unbelievable.

Once the floodgates of imagination opened, all sorts of submissions came in.

Although some made the officials feel they had a bit of merit,

you have to remember,

the establishment of Ranks required authority.

Without Ye Su's participation and approval,

it was meaningless.

And so, teams from all over the country arrived.

The Suzhou and Hangzhou suddenly became lively.
