Chapter 64: Natural Talent [Psychic Power]

The gentle voice spread throughout the arena like ripples, and everyone's eyes were focused on Dongfang Ming, as if he was a striking red spot among the green.

They whispered to each other, exchanging various questions and speculations.

"Do you think Dongfang Ming will go up? I don't think so." Someone asked in a low voice, with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"With Dongfang Lie here, what is he afraid of?" another person retorted, "Two mid-level mages working together, both of them have elemental spirit seeds and natural talents, they should be able to deal with that general-level summoned beast."

"But that summoned beast looks so strange, do you recognize it?" someone else interrupted.

"I haven't seen it, and the teacher of the summoning course hasn't mentioned it either. I'll go ask him later."

"..." There was a murmur all around, with various speculations and discussions arising one after another.

"This guy!"

Dongfang Ming stood in the team with a gloomy face. A creature at the general level was not easy to deal with. It would take at least seven mid-level mages working together.

Not to mention that this is a fire-lust blood falcon that is famous for its killing and bloodthirstiness.

Others may not know about the Flame Desire Blood Falcon, but their Dongfang family previously had a summoning mage whose summoned beast was the Flame Desire Blood Falcon.

The demon has a high resistance to fire, and the two of them happen to be mages majoring in fire. Let alone him and Dongfang Lie joining forces, even if there were ten of them, they might not be able to defeat this demon.

If one out of ten can survive, they would be considered awesome.

He didn't want to fight, but he couldn't retreat under the watchful eyes of the public. The people in his family cared most about face. If he fled without a fight today, the support and resources he would get in the future would be reduced by at least half.

"Let's go for it!" Dongfang Ming gritted his teeth and thought to himself that there were teachers at the edge of the field, so the worst that could happen was that he would have to lie in the hospital for a few months.

It's just a welcome party, no one should die.

He could still clearly tell which had a more serious impact: a reduction of resources by half or a few months of rest.

So, with everyone's attention focused, Dongfang Ming walked to the center of the arena and stood next to Dongfang Lie.

"Your courage is commendable." Yu Qiuyue nodded, then she turned to her summoned beast and warned: "Little Falcon, be careful, don't kill them."

"Crying~~~~"

The Flame-Desire Blood Falcon let out a sharp cry, flapped its wings and flew high, swooping straight towards Dongfang Lie and Dongfang Ming.

Its figure drew a flaming trail in the air, like a red lightning, carrying a fiery breath and fierce momentum, which was frightening.

Dongfang Lie and Dongfang Ming immediately became alert. The warrior-level creature was extremely fast, and it was obviously not enough for them to dodge with their physical speed alone, so they had to use magic tools.

……

"A great general-level summoned beast. Which noble family does this student come from? He is so rich!" One of the directors looked at Jiang Yunming, the director of the Summoning Department, curiously.

"She is not from a noble family, but just an ordinary civilian magician." Jiang Yunming shook his head and replied.

"A civilian wizard has a general-level summoned beast?" The director was a little bit unbelievable.

With a summoned beast of the war general level, Yu Qiuyue can go and fight with the students of the summoning department of the main campus, and maybe even win. After all, even in the main campus, there are not many people who have summoned beasts of the war general level.

You call this a civilian mage?

The school has just started and I can graduate now.

"Old Zhou, I didn't say that." Jiang Yunming explained with a smile, "Yu Qiuyue is also a natural talent. The reason why her summoned beast is so strong is all due to her natural talent."

"What kind of natural talent can be so great?" Zhou Zhenghua couldn't help but ask. He was a department head after all, and he had seen all kinds of people with natural talents, but no one was as astonishing as Yu Qiuyue.

"Psychic power!" Jiang Yunming said.

"Psychic energy??" Zhou Zhenghua was stunned and said, "Is it the magic energy that has a three-fold nourishing effect on summoned beasts, and can also promote the summoned beasts to improve their potential and enhance the innate talents of their souls, bodies, and bloodlines?"

"Yes, that's it." Jiang Yunming nodded.

"So this is her talent. No wonder her summoned beast is so powerful," Zhou Zhenghua suddenly realized.

[Psionics] can be said to be the most useful summoning talent recorded so far.

The owner of this natural talent, the summoning magic has three times the nourishing effect on the summoned beast. They are both summoned beasts, but others eat three bowls of rice a day, while your summoned beast only eats one bowl of rice. How can you compare?
This is not the most amazing thing. The most amazing thing is that the second magic power has a subtle effect in promoting the potential of summoned beasts.

The reason why the summoning system is so costly and has become a money-eating beast is that the resources needed to enhance the bloodline, soul, and body are extremely precious and expensive.

Take the summoning grand prize this time for example, the top two winners can get a bottle of precious beast blood, which is a precious resource that even the children of aristocratic families value.

The blood of refined beasts has the effect of improving bloodlines, enabling the summoned beast to undergo a marrow-washing-like transformation, thereby achieving a leap in strength.

Even those summoned creatures that are already at the peak of the slave level have the opportunity to break through the bottleneck and reach the advanced stage.

Although the possibility is extremely low, even lower than awakening the lightning element, once successful, it will bring about a qualitative leap.

[Psychic Power] This talent, one month of magic energy feeding is equivalent to giving the summoned beast a bottle of refined beast blood, as well as two resources of the same value as the refined beast blood, the soul and the body.

The longer the magic energy is fed, the more powerful the summoned beast will be and the higher its potential will be.

After three years of feeding with magical energy, even a pig can break through to the level of a general.

Compared to other summoning systems that require a lot of resources to train summoned beasts, the owner of [Psychic Power] only needs to provide magic power every day to maintain the growth and development of the summoned beast.

Don't be too cool.

Of course, this does not mean that [Psychic Power] is invincible.

Even with the talent of [Psionic Power], summoned beasts still need to seek external resources to further improve their strength after reaching a certain level.

If one relies solely on magical energy for feeding, it may take decades to achieve the breakthrough from a general to a commander.

After a few decades, people grow old.

What's the point of having a commander-level demon? To take care of grandchildren?

"boom……"

While the two department heads were communicating, the fight in the arena had ended. Two figures shot up into the sky from the arena like meteors, and then fell heavily to the ground like kites with broken strings.

If the teacher in charge of guarding the area had not been quick to use magic to rescue them, I'm afraid that even if these two people didn't die, they would have been seriously injured, and they might even have suffered a whole-body comminuted fracture!
As the two failed in their challenge, students in the audience began to whisper.

"Dongfang Lie and Dongfang Ming actually lost..."

"The strength is completely crushed. This summoned beast is too outrageous."

"Did you see that? The Level 2 Fierce Fist that Dongfang Lie just released had no effect on this bird. What kind of monster is this?"

"Shouldn't you worry about what to do next?"

　This talent shouldn't be too abnormal, right?
