Chapter 31: Chapter 30: Limited Foreknowledge
Listening to the discussions of the mbers, a peculiar smile appeared on Ma Ran’s face.
Compared to the usual seemingly gentle but actually cold smile, this ti there seed to be a hint of warmth: "My ability is quite interesting."
Without further ado, he directly said, "It’s [Limited Foreknowledge]."
What?
The sudden statent left everyone present in a daze.
Only a few people reacted.
"Limited... lie, stagnation, threshold..."
Su Qiangwei’s pupils slightly dilated: "None of those are correct! It should be..."
"Foreknowledge!"
Thinking this way, a lot of previously inexplicable things now made sense.
Why did Ma Ran easily score full marks in the last ergency joint exam?
Why could Ma Ran accurately determine that aside from him, only three others t the minimum standard in this test?
Why did Ma Ran predict the existence of Wu Di before the Fulan Academy trio arrived?
Hmph!
I knew it!
If it weren’t for such a huge advantage, how could Ma Ran have beaten her?!
Wan Haihao, Dong Huaiming, Wu Di, and others were all deep in thought.
But no matter how you think about it, isn’t [Foreknowledge] way too overpowered?
Always staying one step ahead, seizing the initiative, planning flawlessly.
It could even be applied to dueling and sparring.
This kind of ability is truly heaven-defying!
"My [Foreknowledge] ability isn’t as powerful as everyone thinks."
Ma Ran’s eyes were calm, his tone indifferent: "Right now, I can only occasionally receive fragnted voices and images related to the future."
"Even so, up to now, I’ve never used this ability to change the ’future’ I foresaw."
"The future is fixed."
"To change it, a price must be paid."
This is the well-rehearsed trope of a seasoned perforr.
The more advanced, unrestrained, and heaven-defying Ma Ran sets his ability, the harder it is to get feedback from [play].
At this point, Ma Ran’s gaze fell on Su Qiangwei, and he shifted the topic: "During the Grass Hut Academy’s qualifying exam, the [Foreknowledge] ability told
I would score full marks."
"Then, I would be selected by an organization studying supernatural phenona and beco a mber."
"This doesn’t align with my usual low-key style."
"However, I didn’t deliberately fail the exam."
After a brief pause, Ma Ran finally said in a lancholic tone: "Changing the future cos at a price."
Just saying this once was enough to get everyone’s attention, let alone the fact that Ma Ran brought it up for emphasis again.
Upon hearing this, after thinking for a while, the mbers who were initially eager to inquire Ma Ran about future events all quieted down.
After listening to Ma Ran’s explanation, Su Qiangwei felt sowhat at a loss.
However, the new mber of Grass Hut Academy, Wu Di, seed unusually excited.
His focus was clearly different from that of normal people: "So, is it possible for Superpower stuff to be artificially stimulated and induced to awaken, as well as naturally awaken?"
"According to the tropes of movies, TV shows, and novels, naturally awakened Superpowers should be stronger and have more developnt potential than artificially induced ones, right?"
Seeing Wu Di’s eager expression, President Huang, worried that other mbers might be led astray and start imagining strange things, quickly explained: "Wrong!"
"This idea is completely incorrect!"
After quickly stating this, Huang Weiguo rubbed his temples, which felt a bit tense, suppressed his curiosity, and patiently explained: "The type, strength, and potential of Superpowers have no relation to whether they are naturally awakened!"
"This is information that we have confird through experints."
These days, using Black Rock Stele Martial Arts as a foundation, the ti is about right now.
In this scenario, the impact of Superpower-related information on worldview should be smaller.
So information should also be gradually revealed to the mbers of Grass Hut Academy.
"Only those with both a willingness to sacrifice, high ideological awareness, and who have passed the minimum standard test are eligible to apply to use the ’Victory Stone’ to activate Superpowers."
President Huang Weiguo’s expression was serious, and his voice was loud: "Superpowers are completely different from Inner Qi!"
"Their existence may overturn your understanding of the world!"
"From the most basic manipulation of water, fire, wind, and thunder, to creating a Vacuum Domain with bare hands, and even Cellular Immortality."
"There’s nothing you can’t imagine that Superpowers can’t do!"
"So..."
"Adjust your mindset!"
"Everyone must pay high attention to it!"
"Superpower is not a simple matter of three words as you imagine!"
"Its ergence signifies changes in the world, social upheaval, and a major historical turning point in human civilization!"
"After you return, think carefully about it."
"As pioneers, what kind of responsibilities do you truly bear!"
Old Huang said a lot with earnest effort, but, unfortunately, not many below truly listened.
The mbers keenly captured so keywords they deed important—Victory Stone, Vacuum Domain, Cellular Immortality.
The "Victory" ntioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is a type of bird, resembling a quail but red, sounding like "lu," and its sighting foretells great flood in its country.
In short, unlike "Shusu," Victory is not a good bird.
From this perspective, the person who nad the stone for Superpower Awakening held a pessimistic and resistant attitude towards "Superpower," believing it would bring social chaos.
Pursuing stability is not wrong.
But Ma Ran is clearer than anyone else—ti left for Earth is running out!
Lately, President Huang Weiguo exhibited a sense of urgency.
Yet what he said was not empty words or clichés.
The Superpower System is entirely different from the Black Rock Stele Martial Arts Inner Qi System; it doesn’t emphasize gradual progression.
If soone is fortunate enough, they could directly acquire combat power that defies current Earth’s technology right at the onset of ability awakening!
Perhaps...
Exactly because of this, the Superpower system bears a huge hidden risk.
As President Huang Weiguo said, as a Superpower User, "the determination to sacrifice" and "ideological awareness" are indispensible.
If these are absent...
It would be very dangerous.
"Who awakened the ability to create a Vacuum Domain with bare hands?"
"I’m soone who makes a living with brain work and have no interest in fighting. Compared to that, I’m more curious about the Superpower of ’Cellular Immortality.’
"That’s immortality! I wonder who is so lucky?"
Hearing the discussions of the mbers, Ma Ran knew that President Huang Weiguo’s earnest exhortations had no warning effect.
Ma Ran completely understood the mbers’ reactions.
He himself had gone through the sa process years ago.
A little guidance when there’s ti in the future would suffice.
Liu Huadie, the leader from Fulan Academy, had been very silent all along.
This ti, she finally spoke.
Liu Huadie gazed sharply at Ma Ran and said with a peculiar tone, "Even abilities like [Vacuum Domain] and [Cellular Immortality] that sound sowhat mystical have scientific theoretical foundations."
"But [Foreknowledge]..."
"Sorry."
"I really can’t believe that such a [Foreknowledge] ability exists in the world."
This wasn’t her finding a sense of existence by opposing Ma Ran.
Liu Huadie is a straightforward person.
She is allergic to hypocrisy; she does what she thinks, says what she thinks.
Without scruples, she speaks bluntly.
I speak my mind, without more.
