After the question arose in his mind, Su Yuan immediately asked Xiao Meng.
Under the control of Spiritual Wisdom Sword Qi, the latter transmitted all secrets about her abilities and secret techniques.
Su Yuan’s guess was right; Xiao Meng did have something up her sleeve.
Although her trump card wasn’t as powerful as Star Shifting, which could channel everyone’s power for her own use, if used well, its effect was equally terrifying.
It might be a trump card to break through Star Shifting.
But the time to use this trump card hasn’t come yet.
Su Yuan looked at Li Zhengxing, gazing at the Star Curtain he created, and tentatively asked:
"Classmate Li, maintaining Star Shifting must consume quite a bit of spiritual power, right?"
"If I just keep not attacking and drain it out with you like this, won’t the spiritual power of you Yaoxing High School examinees be completely exhausted?"
Li Zhengxing only smiled slightly:
"Good question. Star Shifting did have such a flaw in its nascent stage.
"But that issue no longer exists. If you don’t attack, then we’ll attack."
Before he finished speaking, the countless stars on the Star Curtain underwent an abrupt change.
Several stars were orbiting a giant star in the center.
Under Li Zhengxing’s control, the speed of their orbits got faster and faster, as if time was accelerating.
After orbiting at terrifying speeds over and over, the amassed kinetic energy within these stars was unimaginably terrifying.
"As I said before, Star Shifting is a secret technique simulating star gravity, altering the trajectory of all external attacks using gravity."
"Even if there’s no external attack, gravity can directly act internally to amplify my Star Daoist Technique."
Li Zhengxing spoke calmly, yet the content of his words unsettled the students of the Special Advancement Class.
Finally, a star within the Star Curtain reached its speed limit.
With a point of Li Zhengxing’s finger, this star shot out of the Star Curtain, transforming into a head-sized solid star, hurtling towards Su Yuan.
Its speed and devastating power were comparable to a tank’s main cannon firing armor-piercing rounds!
This exceeded the limit of the Undying Sword Body’s Dissipating Force.
Even the Perfection Level Undying Sword Body was as fragile as paper in front of this star.
Facing the incoming star, Su Yuan had no good way to counter it.
Nothing left to say, the Fill-in Babies are coming in.
Anticipating the hard-to-endure attack, Su Yuan readied over a dozen Fill-in Babies to spring into action.
As soon as the star aimed at him, captives blessed with the Immortal Sword Body Talisman accurately pounced upon it.
Thud, thud, thud—
Like bowling balls, the wall of Fill-in Babies was blasted through.
The star still sped towards Su Yuan, but after some energy was spent, its power was greatly reduced, allowing Su Yuan to dodge easily.
Watching the scattered Fill-in Babies fallen on the ground, Su Yuan’s eyelid twitched.
Just one star crash reduced his captives by a dozen, and many more stars were ready in the Star Curtain.
If two more come, there won’t be any captives left to use.
"Su Yuan, Li Zhengxing linked with the spiritual power of thirty-five Yaoxing High School examinees; there’s no way we can outlast him."
"If we scatter, we’ll just be defeated more easily, so the next fight isn’t going to be easy."
Chen Nuoyi showed a worried expression.
Su Yuan couldn’t help but heave a long sigh.
He turned to the Special Advancement Class students behind him and said heavily:
"Everyone, truth be told, I also have a secret technique that can connect all of your spiritual power."
"However, the conditions to use this secret technique are quite demanding. It requires me to extend my power into your dantians."
"If it wasn’t a desperate situation, I wouldn’t want to use this secret technique either."
"Now I want to hear your thoughts. Are you willing to expose your dantians to me to win?"
These words instantly caused a commotion among the Special Advancement Class students.
"Section Chief Su also has a secret technique to gather everyone’s spiritual power? Doesn’t that put us back on the same starting line as Yaoxing High School?"
Wu Xingqi was somewhat surprised.
But most people responded with silence.
Because for cultivators, the dantian is extremely important.
If the dantian is damaged, although it doesn’t mean the path of cultivation is completely cut off, repairing or replacing the dantian is a time-consuming and expensive task.
With exams approaching, who dares entrust something so crucial to someone else?
Aside from Chen Nuoyi, Wu Xingqi, and Wu Ziying, who had absolute trust in Su Yuan, the others dared not agree casually.
But amid the silence, Zhang Jun, not particularly familiar with Su Yuan, spoke up.
The former school number one, who was defeated by Xiao Kong in a mock exam, said lightly:
"If Xiao Kong hadn’t been eliminated, he’d probably have been the first to agree."
"Maybe I’m just lacking his courage and determination, which is why I can’t compare to him."
Zhang Jun spoke earnestly:
"Let me be Xiao Kong now. Su Yuan, what’s the success rate after deploying your secret technique?"
"Wouldn’t dare say ten out of ten, but six or seven out of ten is achievable."
Su Yuan responded sincerely, the tone unusually serious.
"Six or seven is enough; I agree with your proposal."
Zhang Jun declared resolutely.
When the first person expressed their stance, the other Special Advancement Class students began to waver.
Yet, something seemed missing that prevented them from fully committing.
At this moment, Wu Xingqi’s voice drifted in:
"Section Chief Su talks a good game; if you didn’t know better, you’d think he was a heroic orthodox leader gathering Elemental Energy Bombs."
"Folks, is it possible that when we were hypnotized, Section Chief Su might have already messed with our dantians, having his way with them?"
"With Section Chief Su’s character, doing such a thing seems perfectly natural."
The Special Advancement Class students suddenly saw the light.
Instead of being angry, they felt a sense of relief.
That’s more like it!
Su Yuan: "..."
He wanted to solemnly refute Wu Xingqi’s slander.
But Wu Xingqi’s words seemed... completely accurate.
How could he argue against that?
Damn, don’t wreck the hard-earned tragic vibe!
"Since it’s been used once already, and there’s no turning back, perhaps being used again wouldn’t matter."
One Special Advancement Class student sighed.
Hey, hey! Don’t act like I’ve done something terrible to you, dragging you into depravity; this isn’t some NTR script!
Putting aside these bizarre comments, all Special Advancement Class students chose to trust Su Yuan.
While they deliberated and considered, Yaoxing High School’s attacks continued relentlessly.
During this time, nearly all Fill-in Babies were wiped out.
"Since everyone’s placing their trust in me, I absolutely won’t let you down."
Seeing his classmates entirely reliant on him, Su Yuan felt a surge of courage.
Then, the Senluo Spirit Root within his body extended multiple invisible, wickedly writhing tentacles, piercing into the dantians of his classmates.
Though fully conscious now, all their faces darkened upon feeling the tentacles enter their bodies.
This is your secret technique?
Connecting with tentacles?
Is there still time to regret this decision now?
