3: Change information

In the teacher's office, a chilling aura instantly spread.

"What's going on? Who turned the AC to the lowest setting? Are you crazy?" Li Qian looked around, trying to find out who was so bored as to play such a prank.

"Ah-choo! So cold! Is the AC broken? Why does it suddenly feel like winter in the north?"

"Yeah, something's not right. Even the AC couldn't have such a good effect!"

...Ma Wenguo's eyes widened, staring intently at Chen Qing in front of him.

He hadn't taken his eyes off his student from beginning to end.

At this moment, in his eyes, Chen Qing's eyes glowed with an icy blue light, exceptionally cold.

The most terrifying thing was that behind him, an illusory frost Dragon appeared, not large in stature but incredibly majestic!

Just being stared at by those chilling eyes made everyone feel as if they had fallen into a cold abyss, unable to move!

"Look! That's, that's a Dragon!" Someone exclaimed.

In the office, everyone's gaze turned towards them.

"It really is a Dragon! Those huge Bone-Wings, those deep eyes, isn't it too magnificent?"

"Your focus is a bit off, isn't it? Haven't you noticed this chilling aura is coming from it?"

"This aura, this might, didn't they say this Chen Qing only Awakened an F-Rank ice ability? Are you telling me this is F-Rank?"

----------

Chen Qing didn't show off much, merely making a slight move before retracting his ability.

Because he didn't want this office to be completely frozen; how much money would he have to compensate?

As long as the effect was achieved, there was no problem.

However, he also secretly clicked his tongue, realizing that now, with just a slight move, he was at the limit of a Mortal!

At this moment, Ma Wenguo had already stood up, his eyebrows and beard still covered with some frost. He stared at Chen Qing with dead fish eyes.

"Chen, Chen Qing, did your, your, your ability really Evolve?"

Due to being frozen for a while, he was still shivering as he spoke, his teeth chattering.

Are you kidding me!

He truly felt he was seeing things; his teaching career was practically a waste, as he had never heard of such a case!

Chen Qing slowly nodded.

"What Rank is it now?"

"S-Rank Bone-Winged Dragon King!"

"S-Rank, S-Rank..."

Ma Wenguo plopped back into his chair, a bewildered, foolish smile on his face.

Beside him, Li Qian exclaimed, "It really turned into S-Rank? Unheard of! Ma Wenguo, you've struck gold!"

"But, can abilities really Evolve?" Someone asked, puzzled.

"It's possible. I once read a book that said some people's abilities are not obvious at birth, and after Awakening, they might only be D-Rank or below. But there's a certain chance for them to mutate under specific Opportunities, increasing their Rank. However, what I've seen only mentioned improving by one or two minor Ranks, like from F to D, or E to D. I've never heard of going directly from F to S! Simply unheard of!"

The discussions among the crowd grew, eventually unanimously agreeing that Chen Qing had undergone a massive mutation!

This guy's luck was extremely Heaven-Defying, similar to winning 5 million in the lottery!

Ma Wenguo had recovered, his smile now terrifyingly wide, completely unable to hide his excitement, he chuckled, "Chen Qing, you're excellent! Hahaha!"

Teacher, you're going overboard! Even I, the person involved, am not as excited as you are?

Am I the one who mutated or are you?

After the discussion, Chen Qing had undergone a new ability strength test and vitality test, confirming that what Chen Qing said was true—it really had become an S-Rank ability!

And the results of the vitality strength test also greatly shocked the teachers present; it had actually jumped to 0.68!

Incredible!

The office was now much quieter, as many teachers, refusing to believe, rushed to urgently recall their own students.

They still couldn't believe it; could it be that only Ma Wenguo had such good luck?

Chen Qing felt that these teachers would probably be disappointed for quite some time!

"Ahem! Chen Qing, you don't have to worry about anything next. I've already updated your information! Also, I've applied to the school for you, a 1 million Federal dollar reward, which should come down in the next two days! Don't think it's too little. You should know Li Tianyang, who had an A-Rank ability last year, right? He only got 200,000! It's not easy for the school to Cultivate, so please be a little understanding!"

1 million Federal dollars! This was equivalent to his father Chen Youzhong's income for 10 years! Chen Qing was already very satisfied.

"It's fine, it's already good. The student will always remember the school's Cultivation!"

Ma Wenguo's expression suddenly became a little awkward. He looked at the personal information on the computer beside him, which still displayed Chen Qing's.

"Chen Qing, I have a small request, that, below your information, there's a signature. I added a line, it says..."

Chen Qing frowned, looking at him in confusion.

"I added 'Mentor Ma Wenguo'! Do you have any objections?"

Chen Qing was stunned. He was a sensible person, so he didn't say much and immediately nodded in agreement: "You are my teacher, of course there's no problem."

It wasn't that he was easily swayed, but in his memory, this homeroom teacher had indeed taken care of him quite a lot on weekdays, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with adding a signature.

----

It was currently August, and the weather in Yunhai City was very hot and dry.

However, due to his own ability, Chen Qing felt quite refreshed.

After bidding farewell to his homeroom teacher again, Chen Qing was not in a hurry to go home, but instead walked straight to a Martial Arts academy in the city.

Since his ability had changed, he had to deepen his understanding of his physical condition again, and going to a Martial Arts academy was naturally a good choice.

There are many Martial Arts academies in the Federation, but most of them are provided for the majority of ordinary people and those who have just Awakened to Cultivate.

Unlike the common perception of Martial Arts academies, Martial Arts academies are not gathering places for the strong, but rather built by the Federation, and their administrators are also directly appointed by the Federation.

The Federation's original intention in establishing Martial Arts academies was simply to give those who failed to reach 0.6 vitality strength before the college entrance examination an Opportunity. So that they could also have the possibility of becoming a Martial Artist through their own efforts in their subsequent lives.

After all, the army has no age limit for recruiting new soldiers.

Most people will keep the dream of becoming a Martial Artist before the age of 30, because even if they don't join the army, simply being a Martial Artist can increase their income and status.

Chen Qing arrived at the Martial Arts academy closest to his home.

This Martial Arts academy was called Yuanyang Martial Arts Academy, and the person in charge of this Martial Arts academy was a middle-aged man named Li Xinyang.

The four prominent characters "Yuanyang Martial Arts Academy" were carved on the plaque, shining brightly under the sunlight!

As soon as Chen Qing entered, he saw a familiar figure standing at the counter, exchanging words with a receptionist at the counter.

He knew this person; he had been on the pictures in various corridors of the school for at least a year.

Wasn't it Li Tianyang, who had Awakened the A-Rank ability [Flame Emperor] a year ago?

Li Tianyang seemed to sense something, turned his head, and looked over: "Do you know me?"
