"Ding, congratulations to the host for upgrading the talent clone to B+ grade, capable of splitting into two clones at once, with clones inheriting 50% of the main body's combat power."
"System, why isn't it A grade?"
"Host, please don't aim too high. This is a grade division specifically set by this system to make it easier for the host to upgrade!"
"You're clearly tricking me, and you still say it's for my own good!"
Lin Yu's mouth was crooked with anger. There was no B+ grade division in reality; this was clearly the system deceiving him.
The system ignored him, adamantly insisting it was for his own good.
"Host, this system specifically informs you: not only B+, but also A+, S+, SS+, SSS+, SSSS+... infinite divisions!"
"The host has one extra small grade compared to others, equivalent to having half a combat power realm more. Awakened individuals of the same tier will inevitably be weaker than you!"
"In other words, my combat power is stronger, is that what you mean?"
"Yes!"
Lin Yu nodded with satisfaction. "Does this mean I wronged you?"
"Since this system has bound the host, it naturally puts the host first in all matters. Please do not engage in conspiracy theories!"
"Alright, alright, I'll believe you for now!"
Closing the system, Zhao Ke happened to walk over.
He no longer envied Zhao Ke.
With the system, his future achievements would only be greater!
He stared at Zhao Ke for a moment, about to turn away, when Zhao Ke looked at him. "What's wrong? You've been staring at me."
"Nothing, just envious of your talent," Chen Fan replied perfunctorily.
Zhao Ke thought Lin Yu was genuinely envious of her talent.
She smiled brightly, "A great person once said, there are no useless talents, only useless people. Low-grade talents can also transform into high-grade talents!"
Low-grade talents could indeed achieve comebacks, as talents had the potential to transform with every breakthrough in combat power.
However, the probability was extremely small, making it very difficult to achieve.
"Yes, you're right!" Lin Yu continued to prevaricate.
Zhao Ke appeared cold on the surface, but she showed a different side of her personality in front of him.
She was a know-it-all.
She particularly enjoyed lecturing Lin Yu, quoting classics and spouting platitudes to feed him chicken soup.
Every time Lin Yu dared to retort, he would be met with endless chicken soup.
So, he learned his lesson and just went along with her.
You lecture me, and I'll praise you!
Indeed, this approach led to much greater harmony between them, and they never argued again.
However, another problem arose: her need to teach became even stronger.
Now, she not only educated him with words but sometimes also with her hands!
He couldn't win in an argument, nor could he win in a fight!
Seeing that Zhao Ke was about to launch another lecture, Lin Yu quickly said, "I'm going out!"
"Where are you going?"
"To the secret realm to test my abilities."
"Oh, okay then!"
After all, there weren't many people left in the classroom; most had gone to the secret realm.
They had just awakened their abilities and were like children with new toys.
They were all incredibly excited and couldn't wait to rush to the secret realm.
To unleash their attacks on the monsters there.
Therefore, she could understand.
He walked out of the classroom and followed the stone path towards the secret realm building.
His predecessor had been an orphan since childhood, with a solitary personality. Even Zhao Ke, who loved to teach, didn't have a best friend relationship with him.
Normally, apart from seeing each other at school, they never met in private.
They were considered ordinary friends, but a bit closer.
Secret Realm Building!
It was a majestic three-story building. The black surface of the building reflected blinding light, making it impossible to open one's eyes.
He walked towards the secret realm building and presented his student card at the machine at the entrance.
"Beep, verification passed. Student Lin Yu, enjoy your trial."
Secret realms were products of the invasion of various realms. Due to the collision between realms, a large amount of spatial energy was generated, which merged to form countless independent spaces of varying sizes.
These spaces were the secret realms.
His school, Jicheng Third High School, had also been allocated some teaching secret realms by the authorities, specifically for students to practice using their talents.
The secret realm building had three floors. The first floor was the entrance to the secret realms, while the upper two floors were administrative offices.
In the center of the first-floor hall was a device resembling an altar. He stepped forward and placed his student card on it to scan.
"Beep, verification passed. Student Lin Yu, you have thirty minutes for your trial. Please leave promptly when time is up, and do not disrupt other students' trials."
In this era, technology was highly developed, far beyond the level of a few hundred years ago.
However, technology was merely supplementary; talent and combat power were the mainstays.
Chen Fan nodded and then entered the secret realm entrance.
Passing through a layer of spatial film, the scene before him changed drastically.
"So this is a secret realm."
All he could see was desolation. The sky was a hazy gray, with no sun or moon visible.
The ground was littered with broken bones, and zombies roamed in the distance.
This was clearly an undead secret realm.
"The monsters in the school's secret realm are not high-level, which is perfect for me to test my talent abilities."
Looking at the undead creatures in the distance, he silently activated his talent ability.
Clone!
Talent abilities were innate, as easy to wield as one's own limbs.
Two white lights flashed and then dissipated.
Two identical figures appeared out of thin air in front of him.
"Go!"
Lin Yu pointed at a skeleton monster not far away and issued a command.
The two clones turned with vacant expressions and even picked up bone clubs from the ground before charging out.
The clones charged forward without any fanfare.
Without a word, they swung their bone clubs.
Bang!
The small skeleton monster was disoriented. Before it could react, it was hit by another club.
Bang bang bang bang!!!
Blow after blow made it difficult for the small skeleton monster to defend itself.
Soon, its bones were scattered on the ground, its soul fire extinguished, and it was dead.
"You killed a skeleton monster, +1 upgrade point."
Continue killing!
He gave another command to the two clones. The clones were also brave and obeyed Lin Yu's orders one hundred percent.
Lin Yu pointed at another skeleton monster, and the clones charged without hesitation.
They knew nothing of death and were the best tools in Chen Fan's hands.
Following the same procedure, another skeleton monster was quickly killed.
"You killed a skeleton monster, +1 upgrade point."
After killing this skeleton monster, Lin Yu continued to command the clones to kill.
Soon, another one was killed.
"You killed a skeleton monster, +1 upgrade point."
This secret realm was not large, only about the size of a football field, littered with corpses, and the smell was quite pungent.
Lin Yu did not want to stay long and continued to give attack commands to the clones.
The clones, true to their nature as fearless warriors, soon killed two more.
Later, Lin Yu simply gave the clones free rein to attack, while he stood aside to rest.
Before long, system prompts continued to sound in his mind.
"You killed a skeleton monster, +1 upgrade point."
"You killed a skeleton monster, +1 upgrade point."
"You killed a bone monster, +2 upgrade points."
"You killed a beast bone monster, +2 upgrade points."
