Chapter 543 – 2nd Year 1st Semester (3)
I have taken all the classes that second-year linemen can take.
We confirmed through simulation a very efficient way to fight large monsters, starting with planning the movement line by considering the perspectives of our allies, and also engaged in battles between vanguards.
Most battles are based on limited strength, so I wasn’t able to show my full potential, but I was able to see the growth potential of calmness and insight, which are the skills I trust the most in battle.
Calmness has the ability to accelerate thinking ability in crisis situations, and at some point, it also showed that there was a very important choice.
One of the things I benefited from was having Shahemos as my familiar.
As such calmness combined with insight, I grew to be able to predict the short future of space beyond what the object in front of my eyes was doing through expansion of my field of vision.
‘This consumes an enormous amount of mental power.’
I never felt like my mental power was greatly wasted after survival rules reached EX level, but combining the two skills was a huge headache.
It might be a bit excessive to use it to defeat the enemy in front of you, but wouldn’t it be necessary to at least save someone? It reminded me of my time as a hero when I was briefly possessed.
“Naen said you controlled your strength so well that the students didn’t know.”
Seoyeon said after drinking lemonade at the café inside the Global Academy.
“Why did he tell you instead of telling me directly? We took a lot of classes together this time.”
Most of the second-year Jeonwi’s classes had to overlap with Naen’s.
Even when he was in his first year, he had the highest grades, excluding those in Class Q who did not meet the standards, and was a student whom the professors trusted.
I thought that the right to speak out among students would be quite strong, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
“You said it’s a bit too much to show off as being friendly with you? How bad has my boyfriend been?”
“Hmm. I didn’t take all the classes, so if I get involved, my academy life, which I was enjoying well, could be ruined.”
I was going to say that I’m not a person who enjoys tormenting anyone, but the class of Han Xian that I recently possessed did something a little mischievous.
I looked at Seoyeon while drinking a cup of café latte topped with cream.
On the outside, she was just as pretty as usual, but when she glanced at the thick textbooks lying nearby, you could see that her face was a little tired.
I stretched out my hand on the table, and Seoyeon held my hand tightly without hesitation.
“Do I have to memorize all of that?”
“It would be better if I could just memorize it. It’s difficult because it varies from person to person.”
If, like me, you need to apply it delicately rather than randomly combining it through skill links, there is nothing more difficult than that.
Moreover, since we are studying the human body, if we fail once, we can end up in quite a big problem.
I slowly pushed my mana through Seoyeon’s hands and restored her stamina.
“Ah… I think it’s getting better.”
Although Seo-yeon was taught the female skill, it was a skill that was of little significance to someone with Sang Sang-chang ability.
Beyond being able to feel mana, we basically have the ability to refine it at will.
I briefly thought about giving him better martial arts skills, but I think it would be better to just meet him like this and infuse him with mana.
“Are you going to go back to your old Q class starting next week?”
“Maybe? I need to put some ideas into practice that I’ve been thinking about recently, but it’s difficult to test them on students.”
Unless you are a strong person like Professor Jeon Yeon-nam, it will be difficult to accept.
“Can I take a look? I can feel that you have become stronger when I am around you, and I want to see it with my own eyes.”
“It’s a bit weird to go to the dungeon, so I’ll just call Vulcan.”
Because I think he is the strongest student I know and will answer the call.
Vulcan immediately refused.
The reason was that he had not improved much compared to the last time he fought during winter break.

I asked the student support office for a professor with whom I could spar, and the professor who had told me to harmonize with the rearguard came to see if he had free time.
“Are we already at the stage of finding a partner and practicing?”
When he saw me with Seoyeon, he smiled and said, but I shook my head.
“That’s not true. To be honest, my girlfriend said she wanted to see me fight with the skills I saw.”
“It’s okay to say it differently. It can be a necessary factor for growth. I want to show a good side to the person I like. There are times when having that mindset is very effective. At least, rather than becoming a vanguard and fighting in unison with allies, it can be a necessary element for growth. When seeking and protecting, the strength of the heart is very important.”
The professor started talking as if lecturing to a student.
I was just planning to show off my recently acquired skills to the professor and Seoyeon, use up all my mana, and then leave… ?
“What is the power of Yu Xian’s mind?”
“Uh… I’m going to save someone. I’m going to protect a place. There are things like that.”
“There are many different hearts and thoughts, but I believe that all of them come to one conclusion: I want a better future. A proper human being would not destroy someone to get ahead, but rather refine himself and move upward. .”
“Yes. I also think it is good to sharpen oneself.”
“It’s fortunate that all the remaining students in Utopia basically have that mindset. So, shall we get started?”
Is it? I thought about it for a moment, but when I saw the professor pull out a weapon out of the air, I raised my mana.
Rather than using mana to create a weapon, it seemed as if it had been summoned from somewhere far away, but the large shield and jagged mace were a bit impressive.
He seemed to have a pretty gentle personality, but the weapon he was holding was scary.
“Uh… Then I’ll put a shield on you.”
Seoyeon, who was missing from the stage, manipulated the panel and a protective shield was applied to the professor and me to prevent fatal injuries.
The professor raised his shield to his chest and extended his arm holding the mace slightly back.
“You can come with all your might. I also heard that from Yu Xian.”
“I understand. Then I won’t hesitate.”
Black and white twin wheels.
It created a ring of shadow and heat within the body and began to resonate.
As the heat was changed to a higher level of flame king energy and the shadows were changed to shadow energy, an undigested black and white energy flooded my body.
There are a total of 11 rings that I can handle now, and since I created two of them inside my body, I can freely distribute nine.
White flames were wrapped around both fists, and using six black rings, three were placed on the backs of both hands to create black and white gauntlets.
I created two black rings in front of my hands for binding and two white rings for acceleration behind my back, and completed my technique of aiming for a one-hit kill.
The union of the black and white twin wheels and the breaking through of the aftereffects of the island.

“Wow…!”
Seo-yeon Kim let out an exclamation after seeing Yu-sian using a skill from a little distance away.
She tried to watch Sian get stronger without blinking as much as possible, but she couldn’t really understand what was happening.
Cyan, who left behind a gray flame like an afterimage, clashed with the professor, and a series of flashes of glossy black and white, almost silver, flashed.
And as she swung her gray sword sharply, a large sword mark appeared on the protective barrier spread across her sparring room.
‘That was the one that got cut… ?’
She had watched from the sidelines as Sian was pounding hard to break down the protective barrier he was practicing.
The protective barrier that had been unbreakable no matter how hard she pounded back then was now clearly cracked.
“Student Yu Xian, your skills just surpassed your level.”
The professor who sparred with Xian looked at the cracked protective barrier and said.
“It’s my first time seeing this level of power.”
Sian spoke in a quite trembling voice, and I think she would have been in big trouble if she had called Vulcan Ludrik.

‘Is it because we have reached the peak of chaos?’
After breaking through the residual flames, I was able to perform the shattering spread using demonic energy, the spiral breaking using sacred energy, and the final slash using the sword of chaos as I had imagined.
However, I didn’t know that the power would be so different from when it was used in Han Xian’s body.
‘What has changed?’
When the possessed body was not using the main resource, it had to borrow power from those around it.
Cian Raven had to comb out the heat and divinity that was lacking, and Han Sian had to comb out the magic energy with Yin attribute mana.
‘It wasn’t a technique that was used in its intact state when used with Han Xian’s body.’
It was difficult to say that the performance was performed in perfect condition as the divinity, demonic energy, and internal energy were quickly restored by chewing the Mandokdan.
When used in its intact state, when used as a body that can perfectly distribute and use one resource, the power is amplified like this?
I was shocked as I watched the protective barrier cracked by my attack slowly being restored.
“Did Student Yu Xian create that technology to cut through the protective barrier?”
“No. I’ve only thought about it, but this is my first time actually using it. I never thought it would have this much power…”
They say I used it while possessed, so I answered the professor that I was just thinking about it.
“There has been one rule at the academy since long ago. Anyone who causes significant damage to a person’s protective shield or barrier must see the principal.”
“Was there such a rule?”
“Well, that’s because so few people achieved it while they were students. It’s also a rule that most people forget.”
“I see…?”
“Most students live far away from Utopia and the people with status window abilities, so they don’t know who they are, but now there is one person who is very famous. Gaze Hale, the man who created Olympus and left Utopia was a protective barrier when he was a student. I split it.”
I didn’t think anything special, but I feel like I’ve accomplished something big without even realizing it.
