Before he knew it, Lin Tianming had been in the Imperial Academy in the Imperial Capital for more than a month.

As his level increased, Lin Tianming's cultivation speed was not as rapid as from level one to level seventeen.

After immersing himself at level seventeen for a while, Lin Tianming realized that he had reached the bottleneck of level seventeen and was only one step away from entering level eighteen.

Bathed in the fifth-stage thunder pool, Lin Tianming is breaking through the bottleneck under the baptism of thunder power.

Jiang Han watched the whole process from the side, and if any accident happened, she would be able to respond immediately.

However, in her opinion, there is a high probability that Lin Tianming will not encounter any accidents when he is promoted to level 18.

Staring at Lin Tianming's aura gradually rising in the thunder pool, Jiang Han's pretty face couldn't help but reveal a hint of relief that she couldn't hide.

[Tianming was only at level nine when he started school in his previous life, but in this life he was already at level fifteen when he entered school. Moreover, after more than a month of high-intensity special training, he is about to break through to level eighteen. His training speed is much faster than in his previous life! ]

[His God's Hand Copy and Plunder will not have any new upgrade points when he reaches level 18. He has to wait until level 20 to further improve his copying ability.]

[However, based on my observation and research on his unique soul power and mechanical body abilities, it is time for him to unlock a new skill for his ability to make his entire body as hard as steel!]

Under Jiang Han's continued attention, the mechanical ascension light released from Lin Tianming's body during this promotion was the strongest.

Although this was the first time Jiang Han came into contact with this strange power, based on her past experience, she could still see that Lin Tianming was very likely to learn new mechanical ascension skills this time.

[But I always feel like it’s almost there… What went wrong? ]

[If possible, I still hope that this child can learn the new skill of the mechanical body ability after this breakthrough. If he misses it this time, he will have to wait for an unknown amount of time! ]

Lin Tianming also heard Jiang Han's thoughts when he watched him get promoted.

The mechanical body ability she mentioned was actually his mechanical ascendant power.

Although she analyzed that his level promotion this time would awaken a new mechanical ascension skill, Lin Tianming did not feel any sudden enlightenment of new skills.

Did Teacher Jiang Han misjudge? Regardless of whether Jiang Han misjudged or not, Lin Tianming, who was now at the critical moment of his promotion to level 18, would not stop.

It would be best if he could learn new skills, but if he can't, he can just level up.

Because he has been upgraded to level 18, his all-round combat capabilities will be improved to varying degrees.

Jiang Han also continued to observe and analyze outside the forbidden area, trying to use her experience to analyze what Lin Tianming was still lacking in order to learn the new mechanical ascension skills.

After staring at the four walls of lightning surrounding Lin Tianming, the Phoenix Flame Shield, and the Furious Thunder Armor for a while, Jiang Han became thoughtful.

[Could it be that Tianming's lightning wall, Phoenix Flame Shield, and Raging Lightning Armor were too strong after being baptized in the Thunder Pool, blocking most of the power of thunder, leaving his mechanical body without the last bit of opportunity for tempering? ]

Thinking of this, Jiang Han immediately said to Lin Tianming: "Tianming, remove all defensive skills except the mechanical body. You are about to break through level 18. You must seize this opportunity to bring your mechanical body to the most perfect state of level 17. Only in this way can you break through level 18 and learn new mechanical supernatural skills!"

Lin Tianming also heard Jiang Han's thoughts, so the moment Jiang Han opened his mouth to remind him, Lin Tianming unconditionally believed in Jiang Han's judgment and withdrew all defensive skills except mechanical transformation.

As the wall of lightning, the Phoenix Flame Shield, and the Furious Thunder Armor were removed, Lin Tianming, who was only left with his mechanical body for defense, suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

He had to use a variety of defensive skills to defend himself so that he could thrive in the fifth stage of the thunder pool.

Now asking him to fight with only his mechanical body would indeed double his pressure.

Jiang Han showed a look of delight when he saw the mechanical light around Lin Tianming shining brighter and brighter.

[I was right in my analysis. I always thought it was not good enough before. It turned out that his other defensive skills were overtrained, which resulted in a lack of practice for his innermost mechanical transformation skill! ]

[With this last bit of opportunity, this child will definitely be able to learn new mechanical skills, but I don't know what kind of skills they will be? ]

With Jiang Han, a professional who is responsible for developing his potential, Lin Tianming can also concentrate on breaking through the final bottleneck.

The momentum around him was rising faster and faster, and Lin Tianming soon broke through the last shackles with unstoppable force and reached the eighteenth level.

Almost at the same time as he reached level 18, his body, which had been in great pain from being baptized in the thunder pool by the mechanical transformation skill alone, now did not feel any pain at all.

This is the transition from level seventeen to level eighteen. The defense of his mechanical body has greatly increased, and he can already take a bath in the fifth-stage thunder pool with just his mechanical body.

Not only that, but Lin Tianming also felt a sense of enlightenment about new skills.

He also did not stop practicing and continued to gain enlightenment.

As he began to comprehend the final skills, Jiang Han couldn't help but clench his fists and silently cheer him on.

[Come on, little Tianming! Let me see what new skills you can awaken with this supernatural power that turns your body into steel! ]

Under Jiang Han's nervous and expectant gaze, Lei Chi's thunder power began to gather in his right fist.

With crackling sounds of lightning flashing, Lin Tianming's mechanized right fist was emitting increasingly powerful lightning power.

[How strange... How come his mechanical awakening skill is a lightning-attribute skill? ]

[Isn't it the kind of ability that simply increases the strength of the mechanical body, but is it more varied, using the machinery as a guide, and being able to control different powers depending on the training method and opportunity? ]

Jiang Han's analysis also gave Lin Tianming, who was in the process of comprehending new skills, a new understanding of the path of mechanical ascension.

Mechanical Ascendants awaken their special abilities through mechanization, so it is definitely not just simple mechanization.

This is a bit like an awakener who awakens his supernatural powers through an awakening ceremony.

Mechanization is just a means to control powerful forces.

The power of thunder and lightning is also a power that can be controlled, so those who take the path of mechanical ascension may be able to control the power of thunder and lightning.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianming’s mind flashed through the genetic ascenders of the Gene Kingdom and the psychic ascenders of the Psychic Kingdom.

By analogy, the three great kingdoms of ascension should all be able to control different powers through their own paths of ascension, depending on the individual.

Just like people today awaken different superpowers through awakening ceremonies.

After realizing this, Lin Tianming also thought of the Star Key Angel of the Genetic Kingdom who controls the power of the starry sky.

She is the best example to prove his point! Almost at the same time that Lin Tianming learned more about the three great ascending kingdoms, he also successfully learned a new thunder attribute mechanical ascending skill.

Lightning Fist! Using the mechanical body as a guide, Lin Tianming instantly opened his eyes and blasted out a lightning fist mixed with the power of thunder.
