Chapter 63: Deafening Thunder Roar (Proficient)

“Arrogant?”

Jiang Rong, who was totally stunned by Professor Li’s words, turned to look at the professor in confusion.

In response, the professor smiled. “Human talent cannot be changed, but willpower can be trained. One must go through hardships to be resilient.

“That young lad was not born into a wealthy family and didn’t go through many hardships. He does not have strong willpower. Even though he knows that he can master his body by recalling the feeling of the electric current running through him, a person like him would not dare persist but would wait for a few days. He would only dare do it when the body no longer feels as painful when recalling those feelings. However, the effect would weaken drastically. Perhaps, one would only work hard after facing failure… The young lad hasn’t encountered such situations. Just now, he was only recalling those feelings out of arrogance.”

Professor Li’s words made sense, but Jiang Rong was somewhat unable to agree with him.

“He cannot possibly be arrogant. Junior Brother Lin has never bullied others and is very gentlemanly with us.”

“Whoever said that you can’t be arrogant if you’re gentlemanly? Besides, being arrogant is not just about showing off or bullying others. It could be about believing that he is one in a million in the world and he is the predestined person. Perhaps he does not want to lag behind others and believes that he is the only person who can save the world. Do you think this is an act of arrogance?”

“Well? That’s what Junior Brother Lin believes. Perhaps it is Middle School 2nd Year Syndrome[1]?”

After a long while, Senior Sister Jiang had finally thought of a term to describe Lin Yao.

In response, Professor Li nodded.

“Middle School 2nd Year Syndrome? This seems to be apter. In addition to the aptitude test, there is actually a psychological test at the time of the awakening. At the time, we discovered that young Lin Yao felt that after awakening, he was no longer an ordinary person but someone very unique. He even believed that he was one in a million. There are indeed many awakened people who have the same thought, but most of them have been corrected by the military.

“However, Lin Yao is different. He doesn’t despise mortals despite thinking that he is unique. Instead, he thinks that only the awakened can guard the city and protect human beings. He is thinking of protecting China by himself. However, there are millions of people and countless geniuses here. How can one person be able to decide the future of a country?

“I wonder how he came to have such a belief. However, it is not wrong to be arrogant in this sense, which is why we have not corrected it.

“Now, it seems that the effect is good. Since he believes that he is unique, he doesn’t want to lag behind others and he will do things that other people can’t do. Even though he does not have very strong willpower, he will work very hard because he is arrogant. Although he will suffer while recalling that experience, this is also a way to improve his willpower. When he is defeated by others in the future and the sense of arrogance that is his mental support is destroyed, he will have already become more resilient through arduous training and he will not be defeated easily.”

Lin Yao was clueless about the conversation about him. He also had no idea that he was being called arrogant.

He trembled upon recalling the painful memories. However, after continuously recalling several times, he also discovered that the faint pain was not real. The more he feared the pain, the more terrifying it would be.

However, if he bore with the pain for a few consecutive days, it would not be as painful and the pain would eventually disappear.

‘So, the best way to deal with fear is to face it. This sentence is not a joke. It’s damn right!’

After learning this truth, Lin Yao was completely stunned.

After a long while, he shook his head and sat up, carefully recalling the feeling of the electric current running through his body.

He spent half an hour sitting down. The pain caused by the stressful response had disappeared. Lin Yao recalled the details of many parts of his body being stimulated by the electric current and was eager to try.

If his body had already recovered, Lin Yao would have unleashed his thunder vital energy seed, allowing the electric current to move in his body and simulate that feeling.

However, after he finished recalling the memories, Lin Yao looked upset. He had not managed to recall all his memories.

It was not that Lin Yao was lazy. Instead, he had only persisted for three minutes during the electric current stimulation before rolling his eyes and fainting. He had already passed out and he naturally could not recall anything else.

‘Therefore, I have to run the electric current through myself for three, four, or even ten times to fully grasp the unlocking process of the gene lock?’

Lin Yao felt a little uncomfortable thinking about it. The pain that he felt after the electric current stimulation was not real, so he could overcome it with courage.

However, when the electric shock was delivered, no amount of courage could overcome the real pain that he felt. Even if he was very courageous, he would still feel pain after being beaten.

It was painful when people were hurt. That was the absolute truth.

‘I must look on the bright side. If the gene lock is unlocked, I will still have to be electrocuted in order for my body to evolve via electric current stimulation. Besides, the electric current has to surpass my limit in order to achieve the best development. Let’s think about it this way… It’s even more painful now. Will it become the norm for me to be electrocuted in the future?’ action

Sigh!

After lamenting for a long while, Lin Yao sat up again. He had recalled the feeling of the electric current stimulation. Since he could not unleash the thunder vital energy seed to simulate and test this (as there was indeed cell damage), Lin Yao simply continued to practice the Deafening Thunder Roar.

Lin Yao maintained a horse stance, took a deep breath, and suddenly activated the thunder vital energy seed. He left it on the brink of being unleashed, controlling it so it would rush from his chest cavity to his throat.

When it reached his throat, he opened his mouth wide and let out a loud roar.

Boom!

Lin Yao, who had opened his mouth wide, did not make a human sound but the sound of a thunderbolt.

As this thunderbolt sound was heard, everything was dusty in front of Lin Yao, as if a hurricane had just passed by.

Lin Yao inhaled, exploded, roared, and recalled the feeling of being electrocuted. He then produced another Deafening Thunder Roar without pausing and succeeded.

Lin Yao looked inward and discovered that the Deafening Thunder Roar had become an entry-level combat skill.

[Deafening Thunder Roar (Gold Combat Skill): The booming sound of thunder is akin to the wrath of heaven. Mortals tremble upon hearing it. Deafening Thunder Roar resembles the sound of thunder and is activated with a secret method. One such roar can shake the sky and earth and make both the human body and soul tremble. People who are timid, distracted, or weak-willed will be immobilized and scared out of their wits by the thunder-like sound. (Proficiency: 10%)]

The combat skill had advanced and become an entry-level combat skill in one go, reaching the proficiency level.

Such an improvement might seem incredible, but in fact, this was the way to go.

University students who had studied calculus did not need to spend five years studying elementary school math.

Similarly, unlike ordinary people who had to learn swordsmanship step by step, great masters of swordsmanship had mastered the principles of swordsmanship and hence often only needed to read through a new swordsmanship manual once before they could reach the advanced level or even comprehend the profound meaning of swordsmanship.

The same applied to Lin Yao.

Of course, unlike the difference between Mathematics at the university level and the elementary level, he had only made a small advancement in the skills he had mastered.

Now that Lin Yao had mastered Heavenly Thunder LV1 and comprehended the feeling of the electric current flowing between his trachea and throat, he was considered a middle school student at best. Given his current knowledge, mastering Deafening Thunder Roar was as natural as eating and drinking.

However, this was as far as he could go. Everyone could eat, but it was not easy to excel at it.

‘It has only advanced to the entry level, and I can barely use it. There is a certain chance of failure, so I can’t fight the enemy with this skill. If one is very proficient in it, one will be able to unleash its full force. However, this is the level that I am at. The advanced level of Deafening Thunder Roar is akin to excellence. According to the description of the combat skill, it cannot only expand the attacking range of the Deafening Thunder Roar but also condense the sound waves so that, apart from being a fearsome force, they can also be used as an offensive skill like sound bombs.’

Lin Yao was able to control the unleashed thunder vital energy seed so it did not spread to the body and it naturally would not be able to hurt him. He roared multiple times in the research institute and only stopped when others complained about the noise.

Meanwhile, Wang Wu and another person with thunder talent were still having restorative training.

‘It’s really miserable to undergo electric shock development without the ability to recover.’
