My Talent Skill Mutated

However, the Divine Speed Power was augmented by the Electric Flash Field, allowing it to break through its limits.

「Jingzhou.」

In the center of the Outer City, Chen Yu stepped out from the inner city and gazed into the distance, his eyes locking onto a school.

Jingzhou University!

It was a fairly well-known university, though of course, it couldn’t compare to the Superpower Academy.

The Superpower Academy was a world-class Extraordinary Academy—the only one of its kind across the nine human worlds!

Other universities only trained ordinary Martial Artists, while every single student trained at the Superpower Academy was an Awakened.

The gap was like heaven and earth!

"You two can head back first. I want to meet a friend," Chen Yu said to An Ran and Baili Qing, looking at Jingzhou University in the distance.

The two of them glanced at the nearby university, then back at Chen Yu, but they didn’t ask any questions.

"Alright, we’ll head back then," An Ran replied. With that, she and Baili Qing departed.

Watching the two of them leave, Chen Yu turned his gaze back to Jingzhou University.

An image of Ma Xiang’s face surfaced in his mind.

He hadn’t contacted Ma Xiang at all since arriving in Jingzhou.

He had spent the previous month studying at the Superpower Academy, and then had an accident during a mission. This was the first free moment he’d had.

Standing by the roadside, Chen Yu called Ma Xiang’s number.

"Huh? Brother Yu, you calling me for something?" Ma Xiang’s voice came from his wristwatch.

"Where are you?" Chen Yu asked.

"I’m in Jingzhou Base City."

...

"I know you’re in Jingzhou," Chen Yu said. "I meant your specific location."

"Huh? Brother Yu, why are you asking? Don’t tell me you’re in Jingzhou too?"

Ma Xiang’s surprised voice came through the wristwatch.

"Yeah, I’m in Jingzhou too. Right on the road across from Jingzhou University."

"Holy shit!"

An exclamation of shock came from the wristwatch.

"Brother Yu, when did you get here?" Ma Xiang’s incredulous voice sounded from the other end of the line.

"Not long ago."

"Brother Yu, wait for me! I’m with my cousin right now, but I’m on my way. Just wait, I’m not far, only a few minutes away."

"Alright."

Chen Yu agreed, then ended the call.

A moment later, a figure came into view in the distance.

Looking at the figure, Chen Yu recognized him at a glance. It was Ma Xiang.

"Brother Yu!"

Ma Xiang had also spotted Chen Yu. He waved and then ran over quickly.

A smile appeared on Chen Yu’s face as well.

In this world, Ma Xiang was unquestionably his friend. Even though the gap between them was now huge, Chen Yu didn’t care about such things.

A friend was a friend!

’If it weren’t for Ma Xiang back then, I probably would have died right after transmigrating.’

As the two met again, Ma Xiang stepped forward and gave him a big bear hug.

"Haha, Brother Yu, you’re finally in Jingzhou! This is great! It’s truly a double blessing!"

Ma Xiang said with a hearty laugh.

Chen Yu was confused.

’A double blessing?’

’Did something good happen to this kid?’

Just as he was about to ask, Chen Yu’s eyes caught sight of a woman walking toward them.

’Hm?’

’This woman... It’s her!’

Chen Yu was surprised.

It was none other than Zhuang Qi.

"Come, Brother Yu, let me introduce you. This is a distant cousin of mine, Zhuang Qi. She’s a powerful Awakened, you know!" Ma Xiang introduced with a grin.

’Distant cousin?’

Chen Yu was stunned.

’What a coincidence.’

"Huh, you’re Junior Brother Chen Yu, right? What a coincidence, we meet again." As she reached them, a look of surprise also appeared on Zhuang Qi’s face.

"Hello, Senior Sister Zhuang." Chen Yu quickly recovered and nodded with a smile.

Ma Xiang was baffled.

"Sis, you two... know each other!?"

Ma Xiang stared at Zhuang Qi in disbelief.

Zhuang Qi nodded. "Mhm, I met Junior Brother Chen Yu during enrollment."

"...Enrollment?!"

Ma Xiang froze. As if realizing something, he stared at Chen Yu with wide eyes. "Brother Yu, you... you... you’re a student at the Superpower Academy?"

"Mhm, I just enrolled not long ago," Chen Yu nodded.

Ma Xiang was speechless.

"Damn it, Brother Yu, that’s not cool! You’re at the Jingzhou Superpower Academy, why didn’t you tell me!"

Ma Xiang looked at Chen Yu reproachfully.

Chen Yu chuckled. "Aren’t I telling you now? Today is the first chance I’ve had." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"Cousin, Junior Brother Chen Yu isn’t just an ordinary student. He’s an Elite Student, you know,"

Zhuang Qi chimed in.

Ma Xiang was dumbfounded.

"Brother Yu, you’re way too good at keeping secrets." Ma Xiang’s gaze grew even more reproachful.

"It’s nothing special, really. How about we all grab a bite to eat?"

Chen Yu said with a smile.

Zhuang Qi nodded. Ma Xiang snapped out of it and looked at Chen Yu indignantly. "Food? We’re definitely eating! Your treat. I’m gonna make you pay for a feast."

"Haha, alright, eat whatever you want." Chen Yu laughed, clapping Ma Xiang on the shoulder. With that, the three of them started walking.

They soon arrived at a restaurant and got a private room. Seated inside, the three of them ate and chatted, talking and laughing.

"By the way, Xiangzi, what did you mean by a ’double blessing’?" Chen Yu asked Ma Xiang after taking a bite of food.

Hearing this, Ma Xiang puffed out his chest with a smug look and said to Chen Yu, "Brother Yu, take a look at me. See any changes?"

Chen Yu was confused.

Looking at Ma Xiang’s showy display, Chen Yu sized him up.

"Well, there is one change. Your skin’s gotten thicker."

Ma Xiang was speechless.

"Hahahahaha..." Zhuang Qi, who was sitting to the side, burst out laughing.

Ma Xiang gave Chen Yu a wounded look. "Take another look?"

Chen Yu looked at Ma Xiang and casually scanned him with his Biological Force Field.

’Hm?’

’A Seed of Superpower!’

"You’ve Awakened?"

Chen Yu stared at Ma Xiang. Through his Biological Force Field, he had discovered something different.

The Seed of Superpower!

This was a change that came after his Biological Force Field had advanced to a higher level; he could now perceive the Seed of Superpower in others and distinguish the Awakened.

However, he couldn’t tell what kind of ability it was.

"Brother Yu, you’ve got sharp eyes. You could even tell that much." Ma Xiang sounded a little deflated.

"What ability did you awaken?" Chen Yu asked.

Ma Xiang gave a sly chuckle, and then a wisp of white flame rose from his body.

In an instant, it covered his entire body.

But the flames had no temperature; they felt just like the surrounding air. However, Chen Yu could sense a change in Ma Xiang.
