Chapter 31

With a plan in mind, Su Bei began to execute it. He first went to the library and began to look for books about mental power. Because there was a mental power improvement class, the school also provided them with corresponding textbooks. However, the textbooks for elementary mental power teaching probably did not have what he wanted. What Su Bei wanted to know was the situation of advanced mental power.

However, the contents of advanced spiritual power are all secret, and there are very few people who can master advanced spiritual power. After searching for a long time, until the moon was high, he finally found a more suitable book.

This is also the only book in the entire library about advanced spiritual power, which shows how rare this kind of book is. If it weren't for the profound foundation of the Supernatural Academy, which was established to train students, Su Bei would not have seen this book.

Su Bei was overjoyed and started reading immediately. He was a fast reader and finished most of the book in just two days, and successfully found the content he wanted.

The book says that unlike low-level mental power which can only amplify supernatural powers, high-level mental power can itself be regarded as a supernatural power. When the value of mental power reaches a certain level, it can become tangible.

The book specifically gives an example of a person with high-level mental power who can use his mental power to directly lift the objects in front of him.

In addition, high-level mental power also has a detection function. Even if the gaze is far away, they can be sensed. There is an experimental test in the book, where a superpowered person with the superpower of [Search] uses the superpower to find the owner of high-level mental power. At the moment the superpower is activated, the latter can obviously sense that someone is looking at him.

These are the two main obvious characteristics, and the rest are not so easy to detect, such as being able to more clearly feel the flow of one's own supernatural powers.

And these two are enough for Northern Jiangsu.

He put the book in a place that was not so obvious but definitely not undiscoverable, and turned and left the library.

"What have you been doing these days?" When I returned to the dormitory to wash up, the voice of "Comic Consciousness" suddenly rang out.

Although it is not online all the time, I still occasionally pay attention to the savior I have chosen. Su Bei has been in the library for the past two days. He has not come into contact with the protagonists, nor has he studied the plot.

If it hadn’t been known that Su Bei was still crying about the upcoming monthly exam a few days ago, “Comic Consciousness” would have thought that he was going to fail.

Su Bei knew what "Comic Consciousness" was asking, and while fiddling with some handicrafts, he replied with a smile: "You will know tomorrow."

Hearing this, "Comic Consciousness" immediately felt relieved. So far, most of Su Bei's operations have been effective. Since he already has a plan, "Comic Consciousness" naturally won't say anything more.

The next morning at six o'clock, when it was still light, Su Bei arrived at the classroom. Classes at the Academy of Supernatural Powers start at eight o'clock, and he usually gets up around seven o'clock, runs for half an hour, eats half an hour's breakfast, and then goes to class. Today was unprecedented for him to come so early.

At this time, the class was extremely quiet, without a single student. Su Bei began to make preliminary preparations, as the success of his plan depended on this one move.

After a while, Su Bei finished his preparations and returned to his seat, patiently waiting for the opportunity.

Anyone who is a little careful can notice that Jiang Tianming is always the first to come to class F, followed by the class monitor Mu Tieren. I don't know if it's because of his background, but he always wakes up early and comes to the classroom early.

Hearing footsteps, Su Bei realized that Jiang Tianming might be here. He hurried to the door and stuck his cell phone camera out a little. After confirming that the person who came was indeed the one he needed, he quickly sat back in his seat.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Su Bei's ears moved slightly. He had been trained and was very sensitive to footsteps. He judged that Jiang Tianming should be one step away from the door, where he could see the podium.

He immediately said, "It's a good opportunity to experiment with the distance."

After saying this, he pulled his hand back, tied it up with the transparent elastic string he had bought in advance, and placed it on the desk. The chalk pressed under the chalk box immediately flew along the string into his hand.

The footsteps outside the door stopped abruptly.

Su Bei curled the corners of his mouth slightly, realizing that his plan was half successful.

He pretended to know nothing and continued, "As expected, it's still a bit difficult to do this kind of thing when you just become a senior."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly looked alert and shouted out the door: "Who?"

There was no sound from outside the door.

To put on a good show, Su Bei continued to remain alert. He walked to the door, stuck his head out and looked around. After making sure that no one was there, he returned to the classroom and leisurely lay down on his seat to catch up on his sleep.

When he woke up, it was already eight o'clock. After finishing a class, Su Bei saw Jiang Tianming and Lan Subing steal a glance at him, and the two of them walked out together.

At that time, Su Bei knew that it was stable!

In order to help them find the direction of investigation faster, Su Bei was not very energetic all day. After the mental power improvement class, he went to the teacher to ask a few irrelevant questions.

Well, he has done what he should do, and now it’s up to the protagonists to perform.

By Friday, Su Bei went to the library to take a look. The book introducing advanced mental power that he had placed in the corner had disappeared. As expected, it was probably taken away by the protagonists.

"Now do you know what I'm doing?" Su Bei suddenly asked.

The long-lost "comic consciousness" reappeared: "Aren't you afraid that what you have done will not appear in the comics and it will be a complete waste of effort?"

"Afraid." Su Bei answered honestly.

If the comics really didn't include the protagonists investigating his abnormality, then it would be a big problem. He has already shown himself to be a high-level psychic in front of the protagonists. If the comics didn't include this part and his psychic power was not successfully improved, then the possibility that he was acting before exposing himself would be much greater.

"But there's nothing we can do about it." He chuckled, his tone a little nonchalant, "Isn't life just a huge gamble?"

If he succeeded, it would be a step to heaven. Even if he failed, it didn't matter. As long as it didn't mean his death, he didn't mind putting himself on the other side of the scale.

Looking at him like this, the "comic consciousness" seemed to suddenly understand why Su Bei had that 3% winning rate compared to others.

Because he is crazy enough.

Normally, Su Bei always looks lazy and distant. Whether he is acting or in normal times, he doesn't seem to care about anything.

Although he also has the desire to become stronger, in fact, the "comic consciousness" can feel that if it is not for saving the world, his desire to become stronger is not strong.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever thought about what to do if you succeed in reversing the balance between good and evil?"

Su Bei really hadn't thought about this question carefully. After all, he had no confidence that he could successfully complete the task. The 3% chance of winning meant that it was almost impossible for him to complete this task, let alone in the future.

But since "Comic Consciousness" asked, Su Bei didn't mind thinking about it. After all, it's always okay to fantasize.

"Let's open a hardware store," he said half-jokingly. "It's important to have a beginning and an end."

As expected. The "comic consciousness" is clear. Su Bei really has no obsession with superpowers, money, and power, otherwise he would not have wanted to open an ordinary hardware store after saving the world.

It couldn't help but sigh and said nothing more.

Su Bei didn't know what "Comic Consciousness" was thinking, but if he knew, he would definitely say that "Comic Consciousness" thought too highly of him. He was not a saint who had no desires or demands, at least he would not let go of the interests that belonged to him.

It’s just because Su Bei doesn’t know if the supernatural powers he obtained from comics will still exist if everything can really end smoothly, when the forces of good and evil are balanced and he is no longer needed.

Su Bei always likes to think the worst. If he cannot exist, then he will go back to his original plan. After all, he has earned a life and it is not a loss.

Time flies and it is already the third week of school. During the last self-study class on Monday, Meng Huai suddenly walked in.

He usually seldom showed up in the classroom outside of class time, so when he showed up at this time, many people had suspicions in their minds.

As expected, Meng Huai got straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth: "Everyone knows that there will be a monthly exam at the end of the month. Now let me introduce the process of our monthly exam."

After hearing his words, the students in the class were immediately excited. They had been curious about this matter for a long time, and now they could finally get the answer. For a while, many people excitedly discussed it with the students around them in low voices, and the noise was endless.

The veins on Meng Huai's forehead twitched slightly, and he picked up a piece of chalk with a smile.

Almost in the next second, the class fell silent. No one wanted to test Meng Huai's accuracy in throwing chalk. If they fainted and missed the appointment information, it would be a loss.

Seeing that everyone was interested, Meng Huai nodded with satisfaction: "This monthly exam is divided into two parts, namely the individual battle and the group battle."

"Let's talk about the individual competition first. This is very simple. It's a ring competition. The one who leaves the ring first or is judged as defeated by the referee loses. The winner continues to the next round. The individual competition will last about three or four days. If you lose, you can take a break and wait for the team competition."

Individual battles... Su Bei resisted the urge to frown. His special abilities were of no help in individual battles, so he could only rely on himself. Classes D and C might be easier to deal with. He was proficient in fighting skills, so he had a good chance of winning against those special abilities that were not very strong and were not skilled in using them.

However, if you encounter students from Class A directly and fail early on, you will face the risk of ruining your image.

Apparently he was not the only one who was worried about his luck. Immediately, a classmate raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, is this individual battle randomly matched? If we meet someone from Class A, don't we just have to give up and leave?"

Meng Huai shook his head: "Although I think you should go on holiday sooner if you lose, the school has also taken this into consideration. In the first two days of competition, each class will at most face opponents two levels apart. This means that you will at most face students from Class C. We will not be able to fully open up until the third day."

Hearing this, Su Bei heaved a sigh of relief. Although the abilities of Class C had already played a significant role, he was not worried about those unskilled psychics.
