1: Super talent system, gluttonous desire

"The results of the school-wide Qi and blood test are out."

On the podium, the homeroom teacher looked at a student in the front row with a gratified expression.

"I want to specifically commend the student with the highest Qi and blood value in the class, Xu Yifan: 74 points."

"The school hereby awards him a D-grade Martial Skill!"

"There are two months left until the Martial Dao entrance exam. I hope all students will continue to work hard and learn from student Xu Yifan."

However, the eyes of all the students in the class were not focused on Xu Yifan in the front row.

Instead, they fell on a spot in the back corner.

That person sat tall and straight, but his face was terrifyingly dark at the moment.

Just a moment ago, the results of the school-wide Qi and blood test had been announced.

This test assessed the students' Qi and blood values.

The higher the Qi and blood value, the higher the ranking naturally was.

The top-ranked student in each class would be rewarded with a D-grade Martial Skill.

And the student with the highest Qi and blood value in the entire school would even be rewarded with a C-grade Martial Skill!

"Teacher, may I ask a question?"

Inside the classroom, the student who had remained silent stood up.

The homeroom teacher frowned slightly, but sighed inwardly.

He knew exactly what question the other party was going to ask.

"Li Canglan, go ahead."

"My Qi and blood value is 75 points. On what grounds is Xu Yifan in the first place position of the class?"

According to school regulations, the test was based solely on Qi and blood values.

A D-grade Martial Skill, no matter how cheap, was worth hundreds of thousands!

Li Canglan's Qi and blood value was not low, but due to family reasons, he hadn't been able to master any Martial Skill.

If he wanted to achieve good results in the Martial Dao entrance exam, he had to obtain a powerful Martial Skill!

He could not let the Martial Skill be given to someone else!

Next to Li Canglan, many students were also looking at the homeroom teacher curiously.

They wanted to know what explanation he would give.

"The school has considered this situation."

"According to the regulations, besides the Qi and blood value, the mastery of a Martial Skill is also considered a bonus item."

The homeroom teacher also had a complicated expression, "Xu Yifan has already mastered the Breaking Flame Fist to Minor Achievement, which allows for bonus points in the assessment."

"On what grounds?"

Li Canglan's deskmate, Zhang Ganchao, stood up indignantly.

"According to the school's explicit regulations, it is only when Qi and blood values are the same that bonus points are awarded based on Martial Skills and other circumstances."

"Right now, both parties do not have the same score, so this regulation simply does not apply!"

"Moreover, Xu Yifan's family conditions are so good, yet his Qi and blood value is only on par with Canglan's. This just goes to show that Xu Yifan's talent is simply not as good as Canglan's!"

As Zhang Ganchao's voice fell, a chorus of whispers erupted in the class.

"Xu Yifan only reached the same Qi and blood value as the class monitor because of all the Blood-Quenching Medicinal Pills and Blood-Replenishing Medicinal Pills provided by his family. His talent is clearly a notch below the class monitor's."

"The Breaking Flame Fist he has mastered is a D-grade Martial Skill, so he doesn't need to worry about Martial Skills."

"But the class monitor's family conditions are average; where would he find the money to get a Martial Skill? The gap will only get larger and larger."

As the class monitor, Li Canglan often guided his classmates on how to Cultivate.

Therefore, he had always been well-liked in the class.

It was just that Xu Yifan's family was powerful and influential, so they dared not speak out loud and could only whisper privately.

But even so, seeing these classmates standing up for him, Li Canglan's eyes were filled with deep emotion.

At the same time, there was also a strong sense of unwillingness!

If the school had announced in advance that content like Martial Skills would also be included in the main assessment criteria.

Then if he lost, he would naturally accept it.

With his family's conditions, he simply couldn't afford any Martial Skill!

If it came to comparing Martial Skills, he was naturally no match for Xu Yifan.

Under that standard, he wouldn't have set his sights on this Martial Skill from the beginning.

But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

The Martial Skill that was originally within his grasp had flown away into thin air.

No one could accept that!

"Zhang Ganchao, I know everything you're talking about."

The homeroom teacher said helplessly, "I have also reported this to the school, but the principal insists that students should develop comprehensively, rather than just looking at Qi and blood values."

"I am powerless to do anything."

Ring-ring!

The bell for the end of the school day rang.

The homeroom teacher looked at Li Canglan with a complicated expression, sighed, and left the classroom.

Li Canglan clenched his fists tightly, his eyes showing unwillingness.

This was clearly relying on power to arbitrarily change the rules!

However, at this moment, an untimely mocking voice rang out.

"Having only Qi and blood is useless!"

Xu Yifan crossed his arms across his chest and looked at Li Canglan playfully.

"The fact that I can master one more Martial Skill than you while having the same Qi and blood value proves that my talent is much stronger than yours!"

"However, if you really want this Martial Skill, it's not like I can't give it to you."

Xu Yifan looked down at Li Canglan with a condescending attitude.

His family conditions were affluent; otherwise, he wouldn't have possessed a Martial Skill so early.

But he was very unhappy with Li Canglan, this class monitor who needed government subsidies just to afford to eat.

A poor student, yet his Qi and blood were actually on par with his own.

On what grounds?

A peasant should have the self-awareness of a peasant!

"One week later is the day of the combat power test."

"If you can defeat me in the combat power test, I will hand this Martial Skill over to you exactly as it is, how about that?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the students standing on Li Canglan's side immediately turned pale.

This guy Xu Yifan had no intention of giving the Martial Skill back at all!

When Qi and blood values are similar, strength and physical fitness are about the same.

Xu Yifan, who has mastered a Martial Skill, can be said to have an absolute advantage!

Unless the class monitor can obtain a Martial Skill within a week and master it to at least the Minor Achievement level.

Otherwise, how could he possibly be a match for Xu Yifan?

Li Canglan glanced at Xu Yifan indifferently and sneered,

"Put away your disgusting face, and stop acting innocent after getting the advantage!"

"Next week, I will come to take back what belongs to me, not your so-called charity."

After saying this, Li Canglan turned and left with Zhang Ganchao.

Xu Yifan, who remained in place, looked at Li Canglan's back with disdain.

"Hard-mouthed, is being hard-mouthed useful?"

"Without a Martial Skill, let's see what you use to fight me!"

At the school gate, Zhang Ganchao followed closely beside the silent Li Canglan, his eyes filled with worry.

"Canglan, are you really going to agree to the duel with that guy?"

Obviously, even Zhang Ganchao did not have much faith in his brother.

"Don't worry, I have my own plan."

Li Canglan smiled slightly at Zhang Ganchao, signaling that he didn't need to worry.

Zhang Ganchao didn't know where his brother got his confidence from, and sighed gloomily.

The reason Li Canglan dared to challenge Xu Yifan was not just because he was confident.

It was even more because a heartless, mechanical voice had sounded in his ear at that moment.

The System he had waited for for many years had finally arrived on the battlefield!

【Super Talent System: You can draw one brand-new talent every month, and the talent will exist permanently.】

Talent is an extremely rare existence.

The reason for this is that talent is only activated when a Martial Artist is born.

If one does not have talent at birth, even if they exhaust all Heaven And Earth Treasure, it is impossible to possess it.

Although Li Canglan could be considered to have the talent for practicing martial arts, he did not have any talent related to the Martial Dao.

"Start drawing!"

Li Canglan excitedly made the choice in his mind.

【Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the talent "Gluttony Desire"!】

【Gluttony Desire: The host can greedily devour any energy body and convert it into their own ability.】

【Including, but not limited to, Medicinal Pill, Heaven And Earth Treasure, and various other energy bodies.】

The System's introduction to the talent was very detailed, but Li Canglan couldn't help but frown.

"Although this talent is very strong, for me, the limitations are too great."

The reason is simple, he has no money!
