Wang Mingyuan waved his hand.
A soundproof barrier instantly enveloped the two of them, isolating all sounds from inside and out.
Su Zhan felt a slight stir in his heart.
His precognition ability was still continuously operating.
But the future fragnts it showed were already of Wang Mingyuan concernedly inquiring after setting up the barrier.
However...
This thing really drains spiritual energy and ntal power.
Su Zhan estimated that with his current strength, he could maintain this ability for at most five minutes continuously.
Next, Teacher Wang would definitely speak.
There wasn't much left to foresee then.
So he deactivated the future precognition ability.
"What's the situation?"
Wang Mingyuan asked.
Su Zhan remained silent for a mont.
This teacher before him had repeatedly protected him, even going so far as to confront colleagues head-on—this sincerity was genuine.
Apart from his biggest secret, his Aberrant identity that couldn't be spoken aloud...
There was no harm in telling him about his Life Soul abilities.
"Teacher, I'm fine. When I just broke through to Stream Realm, my Ti Abyss Pupil also advanced along with it."
Su Zhan said slowly: "I gained a new ability... that allows to roughly foresee... events that might happen to myself in the extrely near future."
"Precognition!? Even if it's just for an extrely short ti..."
Wang Mingyuan's expression turned grave with astonishnt: "This ability of yours... this chanism... it's simply... outrageously powerful!"
"But it consus a huge amount of spiritual energy and ntal power when activated."
Su Zhan said truthfully: "I can't keep it on continuously, only use it at critical monts."
"That's not a problem then. Su Zhan, listen carefully! This ability absolutely, absolutely must not be revealed to a third person! Including your teammates, understand?"
Wang Mingyuan's tone was solemn: "This ability is your ultimate trump card, it must be hidden in the darkest place, absolutely cannot let anyone detect any clues, otherwise the effectiveness of the ability will be greatly diminished."
Su Zhan nodded.
He naturally understood this point.
Exposing it before Wang Mingyuan was only to demonstrate his trust.
Of course, his trust was genuine.
This ability of his was different from others—when other abilities are used, people imdiately know what your ability is.
But this future precognition ability...
Can't be detected on the surface.
Others also can't find out that you possess this ability.
Hidden, unknown abilities are what can exert the greatest effect.
"Today's matter, from your mouth into my ears, will absolutely never be known by a third person."
Wang Mingyuan also said gravely: "You must also forget that you revealed this in front of , and henceforth be extrely cautious!"
Su Zhan nodded seriously: "I understand the stakes involved, teacher. Rest assured, I know my limits."
Only then did Wang Mingyuan relax slightly, patting Su Zhan's shoulder: "Master it well, but more importantly learn to conceal it. This is very important."
He waved his hand to withdraw the soundproof barrier.
A gentle smile returned to his face: "Let's go, breaking through to Stream Realm is a major event, worth celebrating properly, but... as long as you know your limits, that's fine."
To celebrate Su Zhan's successful breakthrough to Stream Realm.
Liu Ziming grandly waved his hand and directly booked an elegant, quiet private room at the highest-end restaurant outside the academy.
The dishes were exquisite, their aromas overflowing.
Several people sat around a table, the atmosphere relaxed and lively.
"Co, co, co! First we must toast to our Brother Su!"
Liu Ziming was the first to raise his baijiu glass, his voice booming: "Incredible! Stream Realm! The first in our year, right? You'll have to look out for your bro more from now on!"
Su Zhan raised his glass and clinked with him: "That goes without saying."
What Liu Ziming said was indeed true.
Su Zhan was the first in Vermilion Bird Academy's current year to break through to Stream Realm.
Xie Xi also raised her glass—she was drinking clear tea: "How difficult the bottleneck from Dew Realm to Stream Realm is to break through, everyone knows. Su Zhan, congratulations."
Feng Jue silently raised his glass, gesturing toward Su Zhan.
He said nothing—everything was conveyed without words.
"Brother Su is too strong! I feel like I'd be thanking heaven and earth if I can just touch the threshold of Stream Realm next sester!"
Xu Hao looked full of admiration: "From now on, if I have any questions about cultivation, I'll have to consult you more!"
Wang Mingyuan sat at the head seat, a gratified smile on his face, also raising his glass: "With Su Zhan's breakthrough, everyone should take this as a goal to spur yourselves on. This toast is to all your efforts and growth."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.
Setting down their glasses.
Liu Ziming started livening up the atmosphere again, pointing his chopsticks at a plate of beef: "Eat, eat, eat! Don't stand on ceremony! This al's on ! Brother Su, how does it feel after breaking through? Does it feel like you can take on ten of your forr selves?"
Su Zhan picked up so food with his chopsticks, thought for a mont and said: "The amount and quality of spiritual energy have changed greatly, and control over power has beco more refined."
"Tsk tsk, just hearing it gets excited!"
Liu Ziming looked full of yearning, "But speaking of which, although I was a bit slower this ti, the process was absolutely thrilling! You guys didn't see it—I was surrounded by five Aberrants in the middle, that scene..."
"Alright, alright."
Xie Xi unceremoniously interrupted him: "You've told that story over and over more than ten tis already. Better to discuss how we should coordinate more effectively in our next mission. With Su Zhan's breakthrough, our overall tactics might need adjustnt."
ntioning serious business.
Liu Ziming toned it down a bit.
Feng Jue also looked up.
Xu Hao looked seriously at Xie Xi and Su Zhan.
Wang Mingyuan smiled as he watched them discuss, occasionally interjecting to give so directional suggestions, letting them explore on their own.
The topics at the table gradually shifted from cultivation insights and mission anecdotes to academy gossip and future plans.
Xu Hao complained about how difficult cultural classes were.
Liu Ziming boasted about his future business empire blueprint.
Xie Xi analyzed matters related to cultivation.
Feng Jue occasionally threw out one or two precise but choking words that made everyone laugh.
Su Zhan mostly listened quietly, only speaking briefly when asked.
This celebration feast lasted a long ti.
Only when night grew deep did everyone return, thoroughly satisfied.
Walking back to the academy on the road, the evening breeze brushed their faces.
Liu Ziming was still eagerly planning the next team building activity.
Xie Xi bickered with him.
Xu Hao laughed in agreent.
Feng Jue followed silently nearby.
Su Zhan and Wang Mingyuan lagged slightly behind.
Wang Mingyuan looked at the noisy group ahead and said to Su Zhan with a gentle smile: "Good teammates, aren't they?"
Su Zhan looked at their backs and nodded.
"Cherish this ti."
Wang Mingyuan's tone held so emotion: "Academy days are always the most straightforward."
...
On the training ground.
Sunlight stread down through the huge do.
They had just finished a round of adaptive training.
Xie Xi put away the training equipnt in her hands and looked toward Su Zhan, who was adjusting his breathing nearby: "Su Zhan, spar with ."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Liu Ziming nearby imdiately cried out: "Huh? Spar? Have you lost your mind, miss? He's at Stream Realm now! Sparring with us Dew Realm folks? Can that even be called sparring? That's called one-sided beating! I'm not doing it!"
"I just want to personally experience the power level and speed of Stream Realm, to accumulate experience dealing with higher-level opponents."
Xie Xi glanced at him: "This is beneficial for us. If you don't want to, no pressure—voluntary."
