Thunder washes the ground, school uniforms show their power

Campus Lightning Tribulation Fun: Ye Qiu's Crazy Undergoing Tribulation Adventure

On that seemingly ordinary yet destined to be extraordinary morning, the clock had just passed 7:30, but on the rooftop, the atmosphere was eerily like the end of the world was nigh. At 07:30:01, on the rooftop, the thunderclouds resembled a massive black vortex, spinning wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye, its radius expanding to 30 meters. The dense dark clouds seemed to be fiercely kneaded together by an invisible hand, with purple lightning flashing within, like countless angry small snakes darting about. A pungent smell of electricity permeated the air, making people involuntarily wrinkle their noses and feel fear. Each flash of lightning was accompanied by a muffled rumble of thunder, a sound like a roar from Hell, rattling eardrums.

Ye Qiu, in his wrinkled school uniform, stood amidst the raging wind. His uniform fluttered like a flag, as if it would be torn to shreds by the gale in the next second. His hair was blown into a bird's nest, messily plastered to his Face, with a few damp strands sticking to the corners of his mouth, making him look utterly disheveled. As he struggled to maintain his footing in the strong wind, he raised a hand to wipe his glasses, which were thoroughly obscured by rainwater. His wipe only smeared the water droplets further, making the world before him even more blurry. He shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off the rainwater from his Face, but the water seemed to deliberately defy him, stubbornly clinging to his Face. His shoes were already soaked, and with every step, a 'squelch, squelch' sound could be heard, as if mocking his predicament.

Looking at Lin Qingxue, her posture was tall and straight, like a proud plum blossom blooming in a storm. The 'Frost Moon' Tang Dao in her hand was half-drawn, its blade shimmering with a mysterious cyan Protective Aura, subtly resonating with the purple lightning in the thunderclouds, emitting a 'humming' sound, as if engaged in an ancient and mysterious conversation. Lin Qingxue's gaze was focused and firm as she stared intently at the continuously surging thunderclouds, seemingly waiting for something. Her long hair danced freely in the strong wind, and her clothes billowed, like a beautiful painting. The corners of her mouth curved slightly into a confident smile, as if this impending crisis was merely an interesting challenge for her.

Just then, a dazzling light abruptly appeared before Ye Qiu's eyes; the System light screen began to flash wildly, like a malfunctioning old television. On the screen, a line of prominent characters kept flickering: "Warning! Lightning Tribulation energy has broken through the critical value, it is recommended to activate [Magnetic Storm Trooper Experience Card]." Simultaneously, a countdown hovered like a ghost on Ye Qiu's retina, the flickering numbers like Death's countdown: 00:01:23. Ye Qiu's heart tightened as he watched the countdown, an unprecedented sense of tension welling up within him. His hands unconsciously clenched, palms sweaty, the sweat mixing with the cold rainwater and dripping through his fingers. His breathing became rapid, each inhale trembling slightly, and various terrifying thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Do you believe it now?" Ye Qiu yelled at the top of his lungs, trying to force out what he thought was an incredibly charming smile, which looked somewhat comical under the rain. His voice was scattered by the strong wind, becoming indistinct by the time it reached Lin Qingxue's ears. "I suggest you retreat to a safe distance, I'm about to start..."

"Boom!" Before he could finish speaking, a thick bolt of Tribulation Lightning, like an enraged Dragon, carrying destructive power, directly struck and shattered the lightning rod beneath his feet. The immense impact made Ye Qiu stumble, almost falling to the ground. His body uncontrollably retreated a few steps, leaving shallow footprints on the ground. His bangs, now singed and curled, resembled burnt dry grass, still emitting wisps of smoke. Ye Qiu touched his bangs, feeling a pang of annoyance; this was the hairstyle he had specially styled this morning! He couldn't help but inwardly grumble about this sudden Lightning Tribulation, wondering why it didn't give him any Face.

07:30:45, the first climax of the Magnetic Storm Trooper finally arrived. "Open up, you bastard!" Ye Qiu gritted his teeth, his Face filled with determination, and crushed the [Magnetic Storm Trooper Experience Card] in his hand. In an instant, the pores all over his body erupted with blue-white electric arcs, like countless small power stations. These electric arcs intertwined and leaped, forming a strange and spectacular sight. Ye Qiu felt as if his body was filled with a powerful force, every cell cheering. His skin tingled slightly, as if countless small ants were crawling on it. He could feel his heart rate accelerating, blood rushing through his veins, as if trying to break free from the confines of his body.

"Magnetic Storm Domain activated! Metal objects within a 15-meter radius begin to levitate!" As the System prompt sounded, the surrounding world seemed to enter a fantastical metal kingdom. Lin Qingxue felt a sudden tightening around her neck; the platinum necklace on her chest suddenly seemed to come alive, tightly constricting her throat. She reached to pull off the necklace but found it being tugged by an invisible force, impossible to remove. Meanwhile, Ye Qiu stood at the center of the storm, a triumphant smile on his Face, controlling the countless flying soda cans like commanding an army, forming an impenetrable defensive matrix. The soda cans, under his control, rotated and arranged themselves orderly, reflecting blue-white electric arc light, appearing both magical and comical. Ye Qiu looked at his masterpiece, immensely proud; he felt like a superhero, saving the world from peril. He even began to fantasize about standing on a podium, receiving cheers and admiration from the crowd.

"Watch closely!" Ye Qiu's Face was flushed with excitement, his two fingers pointed like a sword towards the sky, looking as if he were the Dominator of this world. "This move is called [Railgun ・ Modified]!" As soon as his voice fell, three coins, accelerated by a powerful magnetic field, instantly broke the sound barrier like three cannonballs leaving a barrel. The moment they collided with the second bolt of Tribulation Lightning, it was like two planets colliding, exploding into a massive plasma fireball. The fireball emitted a scorching light, illuminating the entire rooftop as if it were daytime. The surrounding air was instantly ignited by the high temperature, making a 'sizzling' sound. Ye Qiu squinted his eyes, dazzled by the light, but a triumphant smile still hung on his Face. He looked at the exploding fireball, filled with a sense of accomplishment, as if he had already defeated the whole world.

"Detected cross-realm prestige! Reward: prestige value +499!" "Achievement unlocked: [Mortal Physique Rivaling Gods]!" The System prompt sounded again. Upon hearing it, Ye Qiu nearly jumped with excitement, his smile even brighter, as if he had already reached the Peak of the world. He thought to himself, this prestige value came too easily; it seems he should seek more opportunities to show off in the future. He began to plan on using these prestige value to exchange for more interesting skills, imagining himself making a grand display in front of his classmates.

07:32:11, an even stranger thing happened. The third bolt of Tribulation Lightning, carrying endless fury, struck Ye Qiu's left shoulder. At this critical moment, Ye Qiu's school uniform suddenly rippled with strange quantum waves. The waves spread outwards like ripples on water, circle after circle. Ye Qiu felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, as if a sharp blade had fiercely slashed him. He subconsciously tried to cover his shoulder, but found his hand completely powerless. A pained expression appeared on his Face, and fine beads of sweat emerged on his forehead, mixing with the rainwater and running down his cheeks.

"[Schrödinger's School Uniform] triggered! Damage rate locked at 50%!" Following the System's prompt, before Ye Qiu could react, he felt a chill. His upper uniform seemed to be disintegrated by a mysterious force, transforming into countless particles and slowly dissipating into the air. His toned eight-pack abs were thus exposed without any cover. However, the lower half of his uniform remained perfectly intact, wrapping around his buttocks, creating an extremely comical sight. Ye Qiu's Face instantly turned crimson with shame and anger, he covered his abs with both hands and roared at the sky, "Are you doing this on purpose?!" His voice, full of anger and helplessness, echoed across the empty rooftop. He wished he could find a hole to crawl into, continuously cursing the unreliable System in his heart.

The surrounding girls first froze, then erupted in sharp screams, sounds that seemed to pierce through the heavy rain curtain. Ye Qiu heard these screams and wished he could find a hole to crawl into. He inwardly cursed the unreliable System, wondering why such a bizarre skill would be triggered. He secretly glanced at Lin Qingxue, finding that she too had turned her head away, her Face seemingly flushed, which made him even more embarrassed.

"host emotional fluctuation value met, hidden dialogue unlocked: [Is this body something for you to gaze upon?]" Ye Qiu almost spat blood when he heard this, his Face red, whether from anger or embarrassment. He thought to himself, this hidden dialogue was simply adding fuel to the fire, making him even more awkward. He secretly decided in his heart that he would definitely find an opportunity to teach this constantly unreliable System a good lesson later.

Lin Qingxue saw this scene, her ear tips turning a suspicious shade of red. She quickly turned her head away, but the Protective Aura of her blade suddenly surged by three inches, and she loudly exclaimed, "Focus on Undergoing Tribulation!" Her voice carried a hint of panic, clearly flustered by the sight before her. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and refocused her attention on the impending Tribulation Lightning.

07:33:59, when the ninth bolt of Tribulation Lightning transformed into a thousand-meter-long Lightning Dragon, descending menacingly, Ye Qiu knew he had reached a critical moment of life and death. He gritted his teeth and revealed his final trump card. "Is! There! Anyone! Else!" His voice echoed in the strong wind, filled with endless domineering Aura. His eyes revealed determination and resolve, as if declaring to the Heavens and Earth that he would never easily admit defeat. His body trembled slightly, whether from nervousness or excitement, but his gaze was incredibly firm, fixed on the approaching Lightning Dragon.

The power of Karma instantly condensed into a golden barrage, like a golden meteor shower, sweeping across the sky. The scene was simply like a superhero saving the world in a movie. What was astonishing was that the Lightning Dragon seemed to be frozen in mid-air, as if under a stasis spell, and then incredibly performed a Thomas Flair split. This comical yet shocking scene left everyone present dumbfounded. Ye Qiu watched this and couldn't help but laugh; he hadn't expected the power of Karma to be so magical, making this immensely powerful Lightning Dragon perform such a funny move. He laughed so hard he nearly fell over, almost forgetting he was still in danger.

"Absolute Defense effective! Remaining invincible time: 29 seconds." Ye Qiu seized this opportunity, stepping on floating desks and chairs as if on a magical cloud, and leaped to the center of the thunderclouds. He pulled out his phone, opened the front camera, a confident and slightly cunning smile on his Face, and shouted loudly, "Over a million likes for a live Undergoing Tribulation! Fire rockets, my friends!" His voice carried far in the strong wind, seemingly declaring his bravery to the whole world. As he shouted, he posed in various ways for the camera, as if filming a blockbuster.

As soon as his voice fell, the System prompt sounded again: "Livestream viewership exceeded 100,000! prestige value +888!" Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu grinned from ear to ear, as if he had already envisioned himself reaching the Peak of his life. He thought to himself that after this Undergoing Tribulation, he would definitely show off. He imagined himself becoming famous in school, with classmates envying him and teachers looking at him with new respect.

07:35:00, the moment the thunderclouds dispersed, Ye Qiu glimpsed an unusual entry in the System log: "Warning! Detected gaze from High-Dimensional Observer [Jingzhe]." He subconsciously looked up at the sky. The sky seemed to be split open by an invisible giant axe, revealing a hugecrack. Within that crack, a massive mechanical giant eye could be vaguely seen slowly rotating, emitting a cold and mysterious Aura. Ye Qiu looked at this giant eye, a sudden inexplicable fear welling up in his heart; he felt as if he had been targeted by a powerful entity. His body trembled slightly, a strong sense of unease enveloping him, and he didn't know what this High-Dimensional Observer would do to him.

Lin Qingxue saw this scene, suddenly let out a muffled grunt, and knelt on one knee, the blade in her hand displaying eerie blood-red runes. Her Face was pale, and she murmured, "Heavenly Dao Contractor... so the legend is true..." Her voice was filled with shock and fear, as if she had recalled something terrifying. A hint of despair showed in her eyes, as if she knew this discovery would bring immense disaster.

07:36:30, everything was over. In the infirmary, Ye Qiu lay on the hospital bed, looking at the settlement panel on the light screen: "Total prestige value: 2477" "Unlockable: [Golden Eyes (X-ray version)], [Reverse Smoking Technique], [Crow Riding Airplane Movement Technique]." He looked at these skills, his eyes sparkling with excitement, already planning his next showing off. He thought, if he learned the [Golden Eyes (X-ray version)], he wouldn't have to worry about exams anymore; the [Reverse Smoking Technique] sounded very cool, and if he performed it in front of his classmates, it would definitely attract a lot of attention; and the [Crow Riding Airplane Movement Technique], if used in a fight, would surely catch his opponents off guard. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turning up, as if he had already seen himself excelling in various situations.

Just then, the booming roar of the Dean of Students came from outside the infirmary curtain: "Who modified the lightning rod into a railgun?!" Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu first froze, then the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards as he silently clicked on the [Crow Riding Airplane] skill preview. In the holographic image, a mysterious man wearing sunglasses was riding a motorcycle, crashing through the teaching building in an extremely exaggerated posture. Ye Qiu watched this scene and couldn't help but laugh out loud, muttering, "Next school anniversary performance has a show..." He thought to himself, if he performed this [Crow Riding Airplane Movement Technique] at the school anniversary performance, he would surely make all the teachers and students remember him. He even began to imagine his brilliant performance on stage and the shocked and envious expressions of his classmates.
