Chapter 341 The legendary...jinx!
"You?" Meng Ran opened his eyes wide, "Well, I haven't asked you yet, you are..."
The brief introduction to the Combat Club previously only introduced a few members of the junior combat club, and naturally skipped over their family members.
Some family members had already slipped away before arriving at the Combat Club, and were having fun at school.
Although Gu Jieshuang was the vice president, he was one level lower and not the main candidate for this exchange, so he was not introduced.
"Hello." Gu Jieshuang's face was calm. "I'm the vice president of the Combat Club, Gu Jieshuang."
"Vice President...then why didn't you introduce me in the club just now..." Meng Ran scratched his head, a little confused.
The system of the combat club in each school is different. In Gudu, the president is a junior and the vice president is a sophomore, but in other schools it is possible that both the president and vice president are juniors.
So up to this point, Meng Ran still hasn't noticed anything wrong.
"Because I'm just a sophomore."
"So that's how it is, that makes sense... Wait!" Meng Ran's eyes suddenly widened, "Sophomore... You're already level five?"
"Yes."
"Wow, that's incredible." Meng Ran touched his forehead. "As expected of someone close to Yu Cang, he's so talented... But, the decks of us in the Battle Club have all been refined countless times. Jie Shuang, you haven't been at level five for long, right? It's probably still a bit difficult for you to fight them..."
"President Meng Ran," Wang Zhiwo suddenly said, "You're being too stereotypical... You know, if I hadn't skipped a grade, I'd only be a sophomore now."
"This..." Suddenly I didn't know what to say.
It seems to be the case... The fact that Yu Cang was able to enter the Combat Club shows that his combat ability is indeed very strong, but such geniuses are rare after all. It is impossible for Gu Du to be so strong for two consecutive generations.
He had also seen the sophomore students in his own combat club, and they were still a bunch of useless kids.
Turning his head, Meng Ran looked at Hu Yanzhan, but found that after Hu Yanzhan nodded, he didn't say anything.
At worst, when they communicate later, he can ask those guys to hold back and give way to the girl.
"Okay, no problem... Then you will fight in Yu Cang's place, and compete with the corresponding ranking... Oh, by the way, Yu Cang, what is your current ranking in your battle club?"
Yu Cang smiled slightly: "I am not talented, but I am number one."
"Yeah, then your opponent is..." Meng Ran stretched out his finger and tapped a few times, but suddenly froze.
etc.
He realized something was wrong.
"I am your opponent?" Meng Ran's eyes suddenly widened like copper bells.
"...Yes." Seeing him like this, Gu Jieshuang felt that he had a great chance of winning.
"Oh my goodness... Isn't the number one in your combat club... Yu Cang, you beat Wen Ren Ge?" Meng Ran's face was full of disbelief.
"It was just a fluke."
"..." Meng Ran was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath, "Classmate Jie Shuang, I... I don't know if I can stop myself when the time comes, otherwise..."
"Don't worry." Gu Jieshuang finally smiled, "I can control myself."
"...Okay, okay." Meng Ran smiled, his eyes no longer filled with hesitation, replaced by a surging fighting spirit. "Since you are so confident, I won't be polite either!"
On the side, Zhao Yang watched all this with a complicated expression.
Looking at Meng Ran who still thought he was sure to win, he felt helpless.
Gu Jieshuang chose to fight in Yu Cang's place without hesitation when Yu Cang was unable to participate, and Yu Cang did not stop her. This can only mean one thing.
They all believed that Gu Jieshuang had the ability to fight against presidents of the same level.
A sophomore... If someone else said this, Zhao Yang would definitely not believe it, but he is Yu Cang... There is only one possibility, Gu Jieshuang might really win.
After all, Yu Cang himself had defeated Wen Ren Ge.
Zhao Yang pondered silently in his heart.
Then, Gu Jieshuang’s deck must have been improved by Yu Cang... He definitely has this ability.
This duel... he wants to watch it too.
His brain felt more relaxed than ever before. Now, he could learn knowledge freely without worrying about forgetting it. But before that, he wanted to know what level Yu Cang's talent had reached.
"That... Yu Cang." Hu Yanzhan asked, "Is Xiao Yang now... fully recovered?"
"Yes." Wang Zhiwo nodded slightly.
"Anything to be careful about next?"
The princess then took over the conversation: "Don't worry too much, just rest. You might feel a little uncomfortable... but with Zhao Yang's adaptability, this shouldn't be a problem."
"That's good." Hu Yanzhan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yu Cang." Zhao Yang said, "I owe you my life."
"You don't have to be so polite." Wang Zhiwo said with a smile, "When you practice spiritual energy from now on, just pay more attention."
"Yes." Zhao Yang was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "By the way...what was that burst of golden light at the end?"
Yu Cang looked at the princess.
"It's a coordinate... and it's related to the Starry Sky Vision. However, only half of it."
"half?"
"Hmm... these coordinates are incomplete, so teleportation based on them is also full of uncertainty. A fairly large continuous area can fit these coordinates."
"Can you tell me where it was sent to?"
"I'm afraid not..." The princess shook her head. "I don't have a complete star map right now. Even if the coordinates were complete, it would be difficult to trace, not to mention that it's quite incomplete."
Hearing this, Yu Cang rubbed his chin and thought for a moment.
As for the others... they didn't understand what was going on, so they could only remain silent and just stare at Yu Cang.
"Then...why are there coordinates in the body of the Identifier? Is this normal?"
"This..." The princess pondered for a moment. "It's actually quite normal... It's not surprising what the consciousness worm eats. This golden coordinate is obviously reinforced. The consciousness worm can't digest it, so it has to be kept inside the body. However, the coordinate also has the ability to teleport... That's very unusual."
"How do you say that?"
"This coordinate is just a coordinate, after all. Normally, to use it, whether it's activating it with spirit particles or inputting it into a warship, there must always be a medium or external force. How can a coordinate itself have the function of transmission... There must be some external force attached to this coordinate, but I can't see what it is...
"Also, the timing is strange... If there really is some power attached, then it should have been triggered when the consciousness insect consumed these coordinates. Why didn't it teleport until now? This can't be a coincidence. There must be some 'trigger condition' set up."
Yu Cang's face was thoughtful. "The trigger condition... The coordinates have been inside Zhao Yang for so many years, and it has to be today... Could it be that the condition is the dismemberment of the consciousness insect? Or simply... you?"
Princess: "...That's indeed a possibility. Perhaps the coordinates are trying to take me somewhere."
For a moment, countless speculations flashed through the princess's mind.
Could it be that my brother had released these coordinates? Or perhaps the Empire? Was he trying to convey some important message to me?
That……
"That's not right." Yu Cang shook his head. "If they were really looking for you, why was there only half a coordinate? Is it difficult to seal a complete coordinate?"
"...The difficulty should be about the same. In fact, the incomplete coordinates are even more difficult."
"Can those incomplete coordinates guarantee that you will be 100% lost after being teleported?"
"...No, I think it's easy to find the way."
"So, if these coordinates come from a friendly party, then it's unnecessary. If they come from an enemy, it doesn't make sense either."
"That... isn't me." The princess frowned. "Who else could it be? Among those present, is there anyone else who could have a connection to the world outside of Blue Star?"
Blue Star has only been in the Starry Sky Vision Range for a few years, and it is impossible for it to have any contact with the outside world. Isn't this even more impossible?
Suddenly, the princess raised her head and looked at Yu Cang: "Could it be the Emperor Star?"
If there are a few people present who might be targeted by people from outside, it is only Emperor Star!
"It's possible... but I'm afraid we can only find out what it is by going to the other side of the coordinates."
"Then I'll put the coordinates away first... Wait." The princess was stunned. "Where are the coordinates?"
Yu Cang shrugged slightly: "I sealed it up together... Wait a few more days, there's no rush."
"...Okay." The princess nodded, then said, "So, hurry up and practice your Spirit Flow! As long as we find the Star Armory, we can go to these coordinates whenever we want!"
Yu Cang laughed, then quickly turned around and smoothly changed the subject: "By the way, Zhao Yang, you just... awakened your Spirit Flow, right? What abilities does your Spirit Flow have?"
"Well..." Zhao Yang's expression changed slightly, "Let's talk somewhere else."
…
Everyone left the infirmary.
After confirming that there was indeed nothing wrong with Zhao Yang, Hu Yanzhan left… Now that the bubble world of Mudu University had just taken shape, as the controller of authority, he had a lot to do, and this was not the time to chat leisurely.
Meng Ran also left. A rough man like him couldn't understand the following topic.
Zhao Yang, Yu Cang and others returned to the cubicle in the coffee shop.
"My ability is: 'Future Vision'." Zhao Yang said directly.
"Future?" Yu Cang raised his brows slightly, "Void attribute?"
"Yes." Zhao Yang nodded. "I can directly see the development of matter itself, and thus predict its future appearance and trajectory. As for how far into the future I can predict... that depends on the number of spirit particles I have."
"So strong?" Yu Cang's eyes widened. "With your ability, isn't that invincible?"
He even felt that this ability was more powerful than his own Emperor's Heart!
Gu Jieshuang also looked over, with a look of surprise in her eyes.
If she were given this ability... she wouldn't have to watch for too long, as long as she could see the other person's actions for the next few seconds, she would be completely invincible.
"...It's not that simple." Zhao Yang looked quite calm. "My ability... the conditions required to activate it are quite harsh."
"For example?"
"This has to do with my knowledge," Zhao Yang explained. "Everything in this world is not isolated. Its future direction is affected by countless 'variables.' For example, when a feather falls, every gust of wind in the air becomes a variable that affects its trajectory.
"And if I want to perform a future prediction on this feather, I must understand all the knowledge about wind to be able to do it accurately."
"Is that so?" Yu Cang seemed to be lost in thought. "It sounds like... your spirit child is just calculating for you."
"You can understand it this way—I need to understand everything about 'variables.' As long as I know enough, my spirit particle will be able to see the future—of course, it's not that inconvenient. If I don't know much about 'variables,' I can still see some incomplete fragments of the future."
"Is that so..." Yu Cang nodded, then raised his head and said, "Since the name is Future View Qu... then where does the word 'Qu' come from? Is it what I thought..."
"That's right." Zhao Yang said, "I can indeed bring something back from the future, but it will cost a great deal."
"What is it?"
"First, all knowledge of the 'variables' associated with this thing will vanish from my mind, and the spirit particles I consumed will be permanently lost, making it impossible to replenish the rhythm. And... the price of power is powerful ability.
"For example," Zhao Yang held up the teacup in his hand. "Suppose, one day in the future, this teacup turns into a dragon."
Yu Cang: "..."
This is an example of how brave you are in fighting.
"Then, if I can clearly see this future, I can further activate my ability and bring back the dragon that only exists in the future... and correspondingly, this teacup will lose its future as a dragon. It may become anything else, but it will never be a dragon."
"Hiss..." Yu Cang took a breath of cold air.
This is not only taking things from the future...it's also equivalent to deleting a future.
"All the variables related to this timeline will no longer be related to this teacup," Zhao Yang said. "Honestly... it's impressive, but also useless. I've already seen the future and know how it will develop. Why can't I just do it myself? Why spend so much money to get it?"
"That makes sense."
"However, I still like this ability." Zhao Yang smiled. "This may make my experiments less fun, but it can definitely improve my efficiency."
He was the one who had conducted the experiments himself, so he was definitely the one who had the most knowledge about them. With his future perspective, perhaps those experiments wouldn't need to be conducted anymore; he could just take a quick look.
It can save a lot of materials and time.
Moreover, the use of this ability depends on one's own knowledge... Well, it is much better than those brainless abilities, which is his favorite style.
"...as long as you like it."
This ability is neither strong nor weak. It may be really useless in Zhao Yang's hands now, but when Zhao Yang reaches his later years and his knowledge reserves and number of spirit particles reach their peak... I'm afraid this world will have nothing to hide from him.
"Oh right, besides the spirit particle, there's another thing." Yu Cang took out a gray soul card, "Come, let's see if we can awaken the form of the destiny star."
"...What is that?"
Zhao Yang took the gray soul card with some doubt, and then his expression changed slightly, "Huh? Wuyang Huozi? This card is very powerful, did you make it?"
Yu Cang:?
He realized something and leaned forward slightly, then he saw that the blank gray soul card in his hand, when it came into Zhao Yang's hand, the card picture and text appeared very naturally, so naturally that he didn't know when these things came out.
When others awaken, it's all bursts of stars, why are you so calm... It's as if you've just awakened, without any ripples at all.
Is this the margin of genius?
…
Soul Card Name: Wuyang Huozi
Quality: None
Attributes: None
ability:
[Life Transmission]: This soul card does not take up mental pressure. It consumes a full tube of soul energy when summoned and must be controlled by instinct.
[This Disaster Will Never End]: When Wuyang Huozi is summoned, he can declare a "future" for a certain target. As long as Wuyang Huozi is present, the declared future will not happen.
…
When he saw the attributes of this soul card, Yu Cang fell silent again.
Although the ability of the Gray Soul Card was definitely related to his own Spirit Flow, Yu Cang had expected Zhao Yang's Gray Soul Card to be very powerful. However, when he actually saw this Soul Card, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Is this card a bit too strong?
This is already a soul card at the rule level!
If I just let Wuyang Huozi declare his own death, doesn't that mean I won't die?
Yu Cang was silent for a moment.
That’s not right…it still has weaknesses.
As long as we focus our fire on Wuyang Huozi, the problem can naturally be solved - Wuyang Huozi himself is still quite fragile and can't withstand any trouble.
And after Wuyang Huozi was created, Yu Cang immediately knew... Zhao Yang's fate star is "great disaster"?
Yu Cang had never heard of this name in his previous life, and thought it must be a star unique to this part of the sky. But this name... Could it be that you are the reincarnation of the legendary Jinx?
No wonder it's so miserable.
Zhao Yang didn't know what Yu Cang was thinking. He just nodded and said, "Yu Cang, this Soul Card is very powerful... As expected of you, you can even make a Soul Card like this!"
For Zhao Yang, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely not to use it to fight - wouldn't it be better to use it to control variables?
Before doing experiments in the future, you can summon Wuyang Huozi, directly delete a variable, and then combine it with your own view of the future. Wouldn’t that make you invincible?
Today is really my lucky day.
Not only was the insect retrieved and the secrets of the world revealed, but he also gained two powerful abilities!
"I am so lucky." Zhao Yang couldn't help but sigh.
Yu Cang: "..."
Although... but... looking at Zhang Wuyang Huozi, he always felt... that the word "lucky" probably had nothing to do with Zhao Yang.
Yu Cang then explained the concept of the gray soul card to Zhao Yang. After learning that he was the legendary jinx, Zhao Yang's face changed drastically.
However, as a genius, Zhao Yang had a strong ability to accept things. In just a few seconds, he returned to his expressionless state.
As for whether he was as calm in his heart as he looked on the outside, that was unknown.
Next, Yu Cang tried to help Zhao Yang awaken the meaning of his destiny star, but it was obvious that even a genius could not make sense of his destiny star without understanding it.
