Chapter 185: You Are Reaching Beyond Your Means
'Mad Growth'!
'Size Enhancement'!
'Exhilarating Dew'!
'Fervent Whip'!
'Spirit Bond Enhancement'!
'Group Blessing'!
...
These are all extremely familiar basic buff skills!
These basic buff skills might be considered useless in the hands of other professions.
But now, in Ling Zhan's hands, they are showing astonishing effects!
Especially after the 'Almighty' innate talent received a super evolution!
The attribute enhancements of these basic buff skills have now reached the threshold of advanced skills!
'Mad Growth' no longer only works on plant-based spirit bonds; it even affects beast spirit bonds!
The enhancement data for 'Size Enhancement' has increased from 500% to 5000%! A tenfold increase!
The attack power and agility boost from 'Exhilarating Dew' have also increased tenfold!
The remaining basic buff skills have also received varying degrees of substantial enhancement!
If only one of these skills is applied...
If only one of these skills is applied, the effect might not be enough to astonish people.
But at this moment, under the continuous waving of Ling Zhan's left wand and right staff.
Dozens of basic group buff skills from various support professions descended upon this spirit bond army.
The scene can be described as extremely spectacular!
The four divine beast babies hovering high in the sky witnessed with their own eyes the army of spirit bonds below growing stronger at a visible rate!
First, their size!
Originally small spirit bonds rapidly increased in size under various enhancements!
Even a tiny flower spirit bond grew to the size of a small mountain!
And those beast spirit bonds, already large, expanded to a height of hundreds of feet!
Their heads could pierce through the sky and touch the clouds!
It seemed as if this Yin-Yang diagram could no longer contain this extremely grand spirit bond army in terms of both quantity and size!
The four divine beast babies had never imagined.
That one day they would be shocked by a group of basic spirit bonds!
Under normal circumstances.
They would only need to slightly shake their divine beast bodies, releasing their majestic beast aura.
And it would scare these basic spirit bonds to the point of running for their lives!
But this specially enhanced spirit bond army not only didn't submit to the divine beast's might.
Instead, they dared to rebel, roaring challenges at the four divine beasts!
This...
At this moment.
Outside the scroll.
The expressions of the four divine beasts were frozen in shock by this scene!
The Moon-Eating Wolf even extended a trembling hand, pointing at the scroll, while its eyes were fixed on the five deans, roaring angrily:
"Zhou Hongfu, you damn bastard, you're telling me this is a non-specialist!?"
"Did you use some secret method to alter his basic information?"
"How can a level 25 non-specialist be so freakish!"
As soon as the words fell.
Even the other three divine beasts glared at the five deans with hostile looks.
They also felt they had been tricked!
Level 50 Gai and level 52 Yun Man were defeated by this human.
That would be understandable.
But a level 25 non-specialist summoning a spirit bond army that only a third-tier summoner could create!
And what about those absurdly powerful basic support skills!?
And his seemingly bottomless terrifying mana pool, what's with that!?
The four hundred-level divine beasts felt they had too many complaints to voice.
Even the bizarre encounters in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons back then didn't make them as unable to accept as the scene before them.
This already subverted their understanding of the world of class transitions.
Facing the hostile glares of the four divine beasts.
The expressions of the five deans remained smiling.
"Old friends, don't get excited..."
"I can assure you all that we are not deceiving you; he is indeed a genuine non-specialist!"
"As for these extraordinarily powerful basic skills you see, they are likely related to his innate talents!"
Zhou Hongfu explained with a faint smile.
"That's right, although this young fellow has never revealed his secrets to us..."
"Based on our observations and guesses, we have reached certain conclusions."
"He is very likely a triple talent, or even a multi-talent owner!"
"This should also be the reason why he insists on walking the path of a non-specialist!"
Wang Shi also spoke softly at this moment.
Although Ling Zhan had never disclosed any information about himself.
The deans were not to be underestimated.
Especially Dean Wang Shi, who excelled in analyzing theoretical data.
By observing various battle videos of Ling Zhan.
He had already reached some conclusions.
He then began to explain to the four hundred-level divine beasts...
According to Wang Shi's current speculation, Ling Zhan's innate talents are at least threefold!
First is the terrifying mana pool that everyone can sense!
The first talent is speculated to be related to the expansion and recovery of mana.
Next is the mastery and switching speed of all class weapons!
It's important to note.
Each profession has its own 'Weapon Mastery' passive ability.
Mages and summoners have 'Staff Mastery'.
Priests, shadow priests, and witches have 'Wand Mastery'.
Swordsmen and magic swordsmen naturally have 'Long Sword Mastery'.
...
With 'Weapon Mastery', you can more effectively wield the skills of that profession.
Yet, Ling Zhan, as a non-specialist, has achieved mastery in all weapons!
The key is that his weapon switching speed is something even these hundred-level powerhouses find themselves inferior to!
And then there's the extraordinary power of those basic skills...
Taking everything into account.
The deans have speculated that Ling Zhan possesses at least three extremely powerful innate talents.
Even if this speculation differs from the truth.
It shouldn't be too far off.
After listening to Wang Shi's detailed explanation.
The expressions of the four hundred-level divine beasts finally softened somewhat.
They hadn't expected that Tianyan Academy, in this cohort of new students, had admitted such a terrifying and freakish prodigy!
And at this moment.
The four divine beasts also realized...
The terrifying potential of this non-specialist!
Thinking of this.
Originally, the four divine beasts were quite wary of the demon blood in Ling Zhan's body.
But now, they were somewhat inclined to let their children form a contract with this non-specialist!
"In that case, he does have the qualifications to sign a contract with our children!"
The Bifang divine beast said slowly.
The other three divine beasts also nodded in agreement.
"It's not just about qualifications. Strictly speaking, it's you who are reaching beyond your means!"
At this moment, Han Qiao remarked with a pout.
"Don't be fooled by Ling Zhan's usually harmless demeanor, but from what I know of him, this kid harbors an unparalleled pride within."
"You previously despised and belittled him, and now that he's turned the tables and embarrassed you, he may not be willing to sign a contract with your children."
Wang Shi also spoke up.
When it comes to understanding Ling Zhan.
Wang Shi knew him the best.
Usually, he had the most contact with Ling Zhan.
What impressed Wang Shi the most was Ling Zhan's absolute bottom line and principle of not owing favors.
Wang Shi had brought a demigod-level enchanter for Ling Zhan, and had also obtained the 'Sun and Moon Rotation Talisman' from a great master.
He had plainly stated that these were gifts, and Ling Zhan need not repay them.
But Ling Zhan had shaken his head, insisting with great principle that these were to be considered as debts.
He promised to repay them generously in the future.
Based on this.
Wang Shi could judge that Ling Zhan was a person of great principle.
For such a principled person, to accept the divine beast babies who had once mocked and belittled him...
It might be quite difficult.
