: An astonishing balance – purchasing a mental skill book.

Even Jiang's father, who was stationed outside the city, heard about what happened inside the city.

He was also surprised that this prodigy's name was exactly the same as his son's.

"Could it be your son?" a comrade joked.

"How could that be? My son only awakened an E-level talent. If only he had that ability!" Jiang Damu exclaimed. "I'd be laughing in my sleep."

"Haha, you're right."

……

School on Monday.

Mo Xixi had just arrived at class.

My friend Xu Qing rushed over in a flurry.

"Xixi, I remember your cousin's name is Jiang Yuan, right?"

Mo Xixi's heart skipped a beat.

Did she know that Brother Yuan had become a first-level martial artist?

"Yes, yes, what's wrong?"

The girl next to Xu Qing said, "That's impossible, it must just be a coincidence."

"Yeah, with Xixi's personality, if it really were her cousin, she would have already been showing off."

"What does this mean?"

Mo Xixi, embarrassed and angry, said, "I won't agree to everything, for example..."

"Like what?"

Mo Xixi remembered Tao Yufeng's warning and refrained from mentioning her cousin's matter, instead saying, "No, nothing. You guys were acting strange today, what were you talking about?"

Xu Qing and the other two exchanged glances.

Xu Qing said, "It's the challenge between the disciples of Thunder Martial Arts School and Chongming Martial Arts School, isn't it? It's really popular online, isn't it? Didn't you see it?"

"I didn't see it, why?"

Mo Xixi was telling the truth.

These past two days, spurred on by Jiang Yuan and also in order to absorb the power of the gene serum, she unusually refrained from surfing the internet and instead focused on serious training.

Xu Qing recounted the events, and Mo Xixi's mouth dropped open in astonishment.

I never expected that Yuan would do something like this so soon after leaving home.

What happened to not attracting attention?

Seeing her like this, Xu Qing said to the other two girls, "It seems he really isn't her cousin."

The two breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "That puts our minds at ease. If Xixi had such a handsome and capable cousin, I would be green with envy."

"I knew it was impossible. Just think about it with your brain. Her cousin is just an assassin with E-level talent. How could he suddenly become a super genius ranked among the top five in Nanjiang City?"

"Hey, what do you mean by this?!" Mo Xixi said angrily.

"It's nothing, don't worry about it."

Xu Qing and the other two ran away laughing.

During academic classes.

The teacher was recounting history, while Mo Xixi sat in her seat, secretly watching the live stream recording on her phone. The more she watched, the stronger the light of admiration in her eyes became.

"As expected of Yuan-ge, he's so handsome."

"Don't even mention Liang Cheng, even Xia Qinghou, who's known as the number one genius in Nanjiang City, is no match for Brother Yuan!"

Mo Xixi's delicate, fair face was filled with admiration. In her heart, her cousin was now the most amazing person.

She secretly glanced at Xu Qing and the others not far away, and couldn't help but lower her head and chuckle to herself.

"Qingqing and those idiots don't even know that he's my cousin."

"Wait until my cousin takes the college entrance exam, then I'll scare you all to death!"

"Hehehe..."

…………

Inside the Chongming Martial Arts School, Jiang Yuan, completely unaware of his rising fame, was on the phone with his mother, Tao Chunru.

"Mom, how have you been lately? How's work?"

"I'm fine. You know how busy a nurse is, there's never a moment of rest. How about you? Have you run out of money lately? Has your dad sent you any money? If it's not enough, just tell Mom." A gentle voice came from the other end of the communicator. Looking at his mother, who looked a little tired on the communicator screen, Jiang Yuan's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

"When I'm less busy after a while, I'll see if I can take some time off and visit you in Nanjiang City."

"Yes, don't force yourself, I'm fine now. Oh, by the way, I sent you some things, remember to pick them up."

"Okay, a patient has arrived. I need to get back to work, so I'll hang up now."

After hanging up the phone.

Jiang Yuan composed himself and opened his attribute panel.

After comprehending the Great Sun Starry Sky Visualization Method, Jiang Yuan absorbed the mutated crystal of the mental attribute, breaking through the 2200 mark in his mental attribute.

Now, he only needs a glance, his mental suppression mixed with the gradually forming martial arts pressure, to be enough to intimidate those with weak will and insufficient courage, making them tremble with fear or even faint.

"If only there were a skill book for mental abilities."

Jiang Yuan thought to himself.

His current mental strength is comparable to that of a third-tier advanced mage. If he had the right skill book, he could unleash terrifying power.

"I wonder how much spirit-based skill books cost on the market."

Jiang Yuan checked his current balance.

Joining Crimson Rose includes a signing fee, selling rare equipment and skill books from Thunder Martial Arts Academy, and rewards from the Martial Arts Association and the Patrol Division...

All of these combined have brought his current balance to an unprecedented and astonishing figure.

One hundred and thirteen million three hundred and twenty thousand.

Looking at his balance, Jiang Yuan's face showed a satisfied and happy smile.

"It really feels good to be rich."

With a large sum of money in his pocket, he logged into Star Domain and began browsing information in the market and forums at will.

I quickly found what I needed.

Jiang Yuan selected four relatively good options from them.

Option 1.

【Spiritual Thorn (Skill Book)】: Intermediate skill book, offensive spiritual skill, which condenses the spirit into a thorn to pierce the enemy's spiritual barrier and can cause considerable spiritual damage to the enemy.

[Learning Requirements]: Requires a Spirit Power attribute of 500 to learn this skill. Suitable for use by third to sixth-tier Spirit-based professions. Price: 4.3 million.

Option 2.

【Netherfire (Skill Book)】: Intermediate skill book, attack & illusion type skill, can cause burning and hallucinogenic attacks on the enemy's mind, affecting their activities.

[Learning Requirements]: Mental attribute reaches 500. Suitable for use by third to sixth tier mental professions. Price: 510 million.

After some deliberation, Jiang Yuan decided to buy four skill books.

After spending 1730 million.

Two skill books appeared in Jiang Yuan's system inventory.
