If it wasn't for the fact that he was completely absent from the registry of ability users, she wouldn't have gone out of her way to come here.
It was also because this teenager had not left any information behind that Xue Shiyun didn't know if he had deliberately hidden his information. She was worried that asking him about his abilities next would anger him.
With the absolute strength to crush the spider monsters, he was at least close to B-rank even if he wasn't B-rank yet.
And apart from the S-rank ability users who were stationed in Jidu year-round, according to Dragon Country's regulations, each province had to have at least one A-rank powerhouse guarding it, and each city had to have at least one B-rank powerhouse guarding it.
Qi Yuan's strength placed in Qipan City, a non-provincial capital, could be considered top-notch combat power.
Having rejected the superiors' suggestions to "let a subordinate go" and "surround the conference room with people who could restrain him if anything happened," Xue Shiyun didn't think there was any danger to life, but she sincerely acknowledged that communicating would not be easy as the superiors had said.
In fact, it was just the opposite. The young powerhouse before her was unexpectedly easy to talk to. As soon as Xue Shiyun brought up a question, he would start responding.
"I don't know either."
Having not compared with other monsters, Qi Yuan could only judge between C-rank and B-rank based on external features. He couldn't provide any other information.
Hearing this answer, Xue Shiyun was not surprised. She nodded in understanding and scribbled a few vigorous strokes on the paper with flourishes.
In order to shorten the distance between them, Xue Shiyun deliberately chose to sit at the corner of the table, neither too intimate to make the other uncomfortable, nor interrogating the other person like a criminal.
At the same time, they wouldn't have to twist their heads 90 degrees to communicate. Just slightly turning their heads, they could see each other's faces.
Therefore, as soon as Qi Yuan lowered his head, he saw the sentence she had written down.
【The monster was too weak to discern its strength.】
*shocked and speechless emoji*
Pretending he didn't see it, he forgot about the matter in his mind and listened attentively to Xue Shiyun's next question, answering them one by one.
Xue Shiyun was also observing Qi Yuan's reactions. Seeing that he didn't have any opinions on what she had written down, she finally recorded with relief.
As their conversation was coming to an end, Xue Shiyun had no choice but to enter the most important part.
"May I make a bold guess - is your ability manipulating light?"
Qi Yuan's mind stirred and an idea surfaced.
He looked at the other person with his light brown eyes, activating his telepathic ability.
"His expression changed. As expected, it's still no good huh?"
"Is it because of what happened yesterday that you came to this conclusion?"
Qi Yuan emphasized "yesterday," trying to get the other person to recall yesterday's events to verify his guess.
"Not denying or admitting it, deliberately avoiding answering questions about his abilities, and trying to take the initiative by throwing the questions back instead. I hate mysterious people."
"It's a pity for his face though, I actually prefer silly and naive men more."
Xue Shiyun smiled charmingly, with constant psychological activity: "Yes, the light wall and the rays of light, with my lacking imagination, I could only guess that much."
Liar, she didn't even think about it at all. Were adults really this hypocritical as rumored?
Thinking of this, Qi Yuan leaned back in his chair leisurely.
He could see through the psychological activities on the other side clearly with his X-ray vision. Her cards were revealed while his cards were hidden. How could he lose?
"What a pity. You missed key information."
"Did I really miss key information or is he deliberately giving me incorrect clues to trick me?"
Just as Qi Yuan was about to lift his cup to take a sip, he stopped and added lightly: "I have no need to lie to you."
!!!
Having been in control of the initiative from the very beginning, Xue Shiyun's composure froze in that instant.
"He's seen through my thoughts all along but didn't expose them..."
She felt like she was an embarrassing clown. It was too ugly.
Since she couldn't hide anything, she might as well drop the act.
Xue Shiyun turned the pen in her hand, thinking quickly.
"He doesn't want to talk about his abilities. With my capabilities, I can't pry it out of him. Rather than leaving him a bad impression, why don't I directly try to pull him in and establish some goodwill."
What is this woman doing making such random moves?
Qi Yuan was confused. Shouldn't she be thinking back on what key information she had missed?
"With your strength, you can definitely get into Jidu University. The Xue family in Jidu has some connections. We can help run errands for small matters like this. What are your thoughts?"
As the capital of Dragon Country, Jidu had S-rank ability users stationed there year-round.
Jidu University was the most likely place to come into contact with S-rank ability users and was the academy that every combat-type high school student yearned to attend.
To have such strength yet hide it for many years, if not for this accident, he probably could have continued hiding.
Xue Shiyun had reason to believe that the other party did not care much for fame or profit. Hence, she made her move based on the aspect of strength.
Increasing a special admission quota for Jidu University was nothing. She could make that happen without needing to use her brother's authority.
Showing the video of him easily killing the spider to the examiners and then having the examiners chat with Qi Yuan to confirm he didn't have an antisocial personality, she refused to believe he still wouldn't pass.
Qi Yuan sighed. He felt this woman was neglecting proper work and was instead blindly imagining nonsense.
"This matter is unimportant. You should consider how to write your report instead."
Just as she was about to bring up further conditions like caring for his family, Xue Shiyun was stunned for a moment before reacting.
"How do you want me to write it?"
"Also right. With his strength, getting into university is very easy. Perhaps there are some deeper considerations."
With all cards revealed, how do I even respond? Is this the only normal person left in the world?
Qi Yuan felt exhausted and casually brushed her off: "Just write whatever is supposed to be written."
Get lost from Qipan City, you mystery man!!!
Up until now, Xue Shiyun had never felt that she lacked intelligence or that she couldn't judge situations. Most of the time it was because there were insufficient clues and information. But this young powerhouse was shrouded completely in mystery and she was starting to unable to keep up with his train of thought.
She should have just handed this job to her subordinate from the beginning. She regretted worrying about her subordinates' safety.
Completely unaware of the inhumane experience he had brought upon Platoon 6, Qi Yuan returned to his familiar daily life.
His imaginative classmates had long determined that he was a big shot. For them, this incident was commonplace instead of extraordinary.
They were excited for the morning then calm as usual by the afternoon.
Qi Yuan attempted using his abilities several times without success. Other than leaving his classmates with fanciful misunderstandings, he achieved nothing.
He could only attribute that one time as an accident and put it aside for now.
That day, he received a package and opened it to find an ability user ID.
His name was listed under ability level C-rank.
He took out his phone from his pocket and tapped open a message.
There was a red dot next to Xue Shiyun's profile picture.
"I have processed a Type 2 ability user ID for you which will make it convenient for you to enter and leave barricaded areas. Please check your deliveries if you have any packages."
Type 2?
Ability user IDs have different categories?
After searching on Wandu, the page spun for a bit before showing the search results.
Type 2 ability user IDs...[content omitted]...
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
For the sake of his unrequited love, his ex-girlfriend abandoned him at the altar, indirectly causing the death of his parents. Just when he thought his life was plunged into darkness, a clueless yet beautiful girl unexpectedly took him in. Looking back, he realized how many hidden gems had always been by his side. A childhood friend who had secretly loved him for over a decade, a stunning but socially clueless school beauty, a mischievous and playful girl who lived for chaos... His ex, filled with regret, pleaded: "I was wrong—can we go back to how things were?" Before he could respond, the girl stepped in front of Ye Shuang and coldly declared, "If you didn’t cherish him, then he’s mine now." Also known as: "After Losing My Job, I Was Picked Up by a Hidden Gem," "The School Beauty I Raised," and "Oh No, I’m Surrounded by Rich Girls."
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
