139: A genius that only appears once in a century!
Azure Dragon Academy.
Dean's Office.
At this moment, three people were sitting and drinking tea.
Dongfang Yi smiled triumphantly, "I truly didn't misjudge this kid."
Xu Tongjun, sitting opposite him, took a sip of tea, "He single-handedly cleared two dangerous areas within the Forbidden Dragon Island, then killed that Samurai and Onmyoji from Japan, and finally soloed the Dragon Island dungeon three times in a row."
"Compared to Song Ming, the guys from other academies are a joke."
"If it weren't for Song Ming, the grass on those academy members' graves would probably be several feet high by now, and they still look down on the Top National Scorer!"
"Wouldn't you agree, Dean Luolin!"
Seeing Xu Tongjun's implied meaning, Luolin lowered his head in shame.
As a Dean, he had failed to restrain and educate the students of his own academy.
This was indeed his dereliction of duty.
Dongfang Yi didn't dwell on the matter, after all, the conflict between academy-trained members and ordinary members had existed for a long time.
Unless the Academy abolished the academy training system, this phenomenon would continue to exist.
Moreover, Dongfang Yi didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.
In this world, strength ultimately speaks for itself.
Just like Song Ming, even though he wasn't an academy-trained member cultivated by the Academy since childhood.
But his strength had already far surpassed those experts from the academy faction.
"Speaking of which, I wonder what method this kid used to be able to invite Gu Changhui; you know that old fellow has very high standards!"
Dongfang Yi said with a chuckle.
"Old Gu's judgment is still very good," Xu Tongjun nodded in agreement, picked up his teacup, and took a sip, "By the way, this kid's leveling speed is simply astonishing."
"I remember during the college entrance exam, he was only Rank 20; in just a few days, he has already reached over Rank 60!"
"What kind of talent does this kid have?"
Hearing this, Dongfang Yi couldn't help but show a hint of jealousy on his face.
Back then, although his leveling speed was also unparalleled among his peers.
But compared to Song Ming, it was still far behind.
He naturally had the same question as Xu Tongjun.
Dongfang Yi was silent for a moment, then corrected, "Just now, he already reached Rank 90!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Tongjun's eyes widened, and he almost choked on his tea.
"How much? Rank 90! Is the Top National Scorer that abnormal?"
Dean Luolin, who was sitting beside the two big shots, not daring to breathe, also looked shocked.
He was clearly startled by this terrifying leveling speed.
"Could it be that Song Ming awakened more than one talent?" Luolin tentatively asked.
Dongfang Yi shook his head, "What I can confirm is that Song Ming should possess a skill amplification type of talent; I'm not clear about the others!"
Xu Tongjun nodded, "No wonder those few giant Dragons in Forbidden Dragon Island were not his opponents; the effect of this skill amplification is probably not low!"
"Lao Yi, didn't you ask what specific talent it was?"
"With your status, Song Ming shouldn't refuse!"
Dongfang Yi didn't answer him immediately; instead, he slowly took a sip of tea before saying, "Everyone has their own secrets."
"If I asked you to reveal your secret, would you agree?"
"Furthermore, such a Genius, rare in a hundred years, will certainly have limitless prospects, and I don't want him to resent me because of this matter!"
Xu Tongjun agreed deeply.
No matter who it was, if forced to reveal their talent.
They would definitely feel very uncomfortable, and might even turn hostile on the spot.
"You're right, my curiosity was too strong."
"Whether it's skill amplification or some other talent, it's all this kid's strength. I believe that soon, our Divine Xia Academy will produce another peerless expert!"
"Hehe, maybe he'll even steal your God Yi's thunder!" Xu Tongjun said with a mischievous smile.
Dongfang Yi, however, was unfazed, because he knew that his current fame was entirely dependent on his strength.
These things were merely external attachments that came with strength.
He had never taken them to heart.
Moreover, if the Human Race produced a strong individual, then it wouldn't be him who should be afraid, but those bugs in the abyss!
"What are your plans next? How do you intend to cultivate him?" Xu Tongjun's expression became serious as he asked.
Dongfang Yi said, "The Endless Snowfield dungeon opens once every ten years, and it happens to be three days from now. I plan to take him there!"
Xu Tongjun was a little surprised, "You mean that special dungeon that can produce the heart of infinity? That really is suitable for this child!"
Dongfang Yi nodded.
He had already given the promised reward.
Now it was up to Song Ming to see if he could get what he wanted from that special dungeon.
...
Early the next morning.
Song Ming woke up from bed on time, all the fatigue accumulated from the previous day had completely dissipated.
He had originally intended to go to the special dungeon God Yi mentioned immediately.
But the result was that he had to wait three days.
Endless Snowfield dungeon.
The reason Song Ming had an impression of this was from the academy-trained member who bought the ice blood set.
The reason he bought the ice blood set should also be for clearing this dungeon.
After all, Endless Snowfield, by its name, suggests an extremely cold environment dungeon. Ice-type Professionals equipped with the ice blood set could be said to be like a tiger with wings in this dungeon.
Song Ming did not plan to be idle during these waiting days.
He first went to the Academy's library to look up information about special dungeons.
This information was considered paid knowledge, only accessible to students of the Academy who paid credits.
Song Ming naturally did not hesitate, immediately paying 20 credits to obtain information about special dungeons.
It recorded many special dungeons under the Academy's control.
A special dungeon is one that produces specific precious Materials and items.
Just like the Dragon Island dungeon in the Trial Grounds.
Only there could one obtain the spring of life.
Moreover, these special dungeons are generally Rank 100 or above.
Like the Endless Snowfield dungeon, the minimum requirement to enter is Rank 90, and Professionals above Rank 100 are restricted from entering.
Furthermore, the Endless Snowfield dungeon is a large dungeon, capable of accommodating a team of up to forty people.
Its interior is vast, with countless monsters, making it quite dangerous.
If too few Professionals participate, there is a high probability of being wiped out in the dungeon.
However, the items produced in this dungeon are very precious.
Which is the Skill Point Book, the item that Song Ming constantly thought about, which increases skill points.
Not only that, after killing the dungeon BOSS, there is also a chance to drop a heart of infinity.
The effect of this item is even more Heaven-Defying.
After using it, one can gain ten skill points for every Rank gained.
Of course, such a powerful effect also means that the heart of infinity is extremely difficult to obtain.
Even if you kill the BOSS and clear the dungeon.
It's not guaranteed that the heart of infinity will drop.
