Elemental Card King.

Chapter 175 Elementalization, A Package of Preferential Treatments
Meditation room.

Su Chen paid no attention to anything happening outside.

After successfully advancing the new version of the Primordial Elemental Technique to the next proficient stage, a new enlightenment has sprouted in his mind.

hum!
A touch of pure white and light blue emanated from her arms.

next moment.

As Su Chen followed the natural course of events and with a thought, his arms completely transformed from flesh and blood into wisps of wind element fluctuations.

'Elementalization!'

The most significant effect of the proficiency stage is naturally the transformation of oneself into an elemental being.

"It feels like we could all become elements."

The idea just came up.

Wow!
Where he had been sitting cross-legged, only a cluster of lingering, blue-green light remained.

"Be good."

This scene was truly unbelievable to the students in the class who had just finished their training indoors.

For them, the element diagrams were equivalent to a blind spot in their knowledge.

"this!"

Even more astonishingly, this wisp of wind instantly transformed into a shimmering, interwoven bolt of lightning.

A purple glint flashed in everyone's eyes, and in an instant, the lightning that had just been lingering vanished to who-knows-where.

Outside.

The condensed, undispersing arc of electric light trailed a dazzling purple flash, disappearing in a flash along the deserted corridor. In less than a second, the lightning, which had reached the end of the corridor, transformed back into a figure.

"It's alright, I don't feel any discomfort."

After a brief test, Su Chen was quite satisfied.

No.
It could even be said to have far exceeded expectations.

"Logically speaking, skilled elementalists can only unlock some of the elementalization's special effects."

Now it's completely different. Perhaps it's due to his innate soul strength, or perhaps it's the nature of an elemental master, but this mental combat skill now covers his entire body.

If they wish, they can even freely transform into different elemental forces and travel around.

Also.

He also acquired two new mental combat skills.

One is 'elemental energy storage'.

One is 'elemental damage increase'.

The former is equivalent to a power bank, a backup energy source. Su Chen can absorb external elemental energy and condense it into solidified 'elemental pills' in his sea of ​​consciousness.

When he first grasped the basics, he learned the effects of elemental absorption and transformation, enabling him to convert elemental power into spiritual power and ensure his personal endurance.

Now, with his core formed ahead of schedule, his personal spiritual power is inexhaustible and ever-renewing, showing a style reminiscent of the restoration of the Unique Green Lotus External Law.

Not to mention, the advanced Sun Observation Technique he cultivated also had the characteristic of being able to recover by sunbathing.

With these dual benefits, the efficiency of mental energy recovery is absolutely extraordinary.

after that.

Even when encountering a magic-suppressing domain that severely inhibits external elemental fluctuations and even isolates oneself from communication and connection with external elements, one still has stronger protection.

As for the latter, 'Elemental Damage Increase' is a permanent passive effect for Su Chen, the card master, as it enhances all the elemental power he can unleash.

At the same time, when actively released, it can also be granted to one's own summoned beast.

"It is still unclear what level of monster my individual elemental damage can be compared to."

Su Chen sighed inwardly. This premise naturally assumes that the personal contract card is discarded and the spirit body is not controlled. It is simply the damage intensity of pure elemental release under normal circumstances.

He tentatively estimates it to be around three stars in purple, which shouldn't be too far off.

"Time is up."

Su Chen didn't continue with further testing, as the agreed-upon meeting time had arrived.

When he went to the administration building, Aunt Jing and the admissions office staff had already arrived.

Everything progressed beyond imagination.

When Su Chen saw Aunt Jing, whom he hadn't seen for almost half a year, the slender and fit lady came up happily and put her arm around Su Chen's shoulder.

"Everything has been agreed upon."

Qin Miaojing smiled, her eyes sparkling with intelligence, and said, "All that's missing is to give your child a catchy name."

What the hell is this?

Upon hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but smile helplessly. What had Aunt Jing been talking to him about just now?

"The boy will be named Su Hao, and the girl will be named Su Xiao," Aunt Jing said with a smile.

At this moment, he even recalled the last time they met, when the other party had given his 'sister' a completely fictitious name.

Sure enough, it tastes just like before.

It carries a long-lost sense of being unreliable and irresponsible, yet it makes people feel all the more affectionate.

"Welcome back."

Su Chen's joy at the reunion did not diminish in the slightest. He looked at the other person with great delight. It would be a lie to say that he did not miss them after such a long time apart.

"Xiao Chen has become quite sentimental." Aunt Jing gave him a playful glare, but tightened her grip on his arm.

then.

The group held formal talks in a conference room in the administration building.

"Heroes emerge from among the young! It's a pleasure to meet you, the newly crowned national champion."

"He is indeed a handsome man."

The three admissions officers from prestigious universities shook hands with Su Chen, whom they were meeting for the first time.

When the homeroom teacher, Yu Dong, arrived and saw that Su Chen was accompanied and supervised by a powerful card master, he felt relieved.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, everything got down to business.

Perhaps because of Aunt Jing's warning earlier, the admissions office on the other end stopped making empty promises and talking about dreams, and started talking about practical benefits directly.

"Elemental Soul Techniques, choose any one."

The admissions office staff at Jiangnan University emphasized this point.

"In addition, there are two elemental secret cards, which provide a basic reward of 1000 credits every year."

He went on to explain Jiang University's credit system and its redemption criteria. The number of new students was basically zero, while Su Chen, as a top-tier student with preferential treatment, would receive a minimum of 1000 credits each year.

To make a concise analogy, 60 credits can be exchanged for a five-star resource that is not commonly found elsewhere.

After a mental assessment, Su Chen was not blinded by the generous treatment offered to him.

First of all.

Soul techniques originate from inherited gifts; while they are said to be optional, they are inherently limited.

Furthermore.

The number of secret techniques a person can acquire is limited. Currently, in the early to mid-game card master stage, there is basically a pitfall in each stage.

Once one's mental strength reaches 750, one can attempt to break through the bottleneck and advance to the advanced card master stage.

However, to advance from a Senior Card Master to the next level, an Elite Card Master, 2250 Energy is required.

Logically speaking, this choice is limited. They estimate that perhaps two options will be available.

Moreover, the transmission and gifting of knowledge are subject to time limits, such as once a year or once every five years. If you miss the right time, you may miss out on some valuable secret techniques.

"In addition, our Jiangnan University has a beautiful environment with mountains, rivers, and scenery, and the beautiful women are as numerous as those crossing the river, speaking softly and gracefully in the Wu dialect." At this moment, a teacher from Jiangnan University suddenly added.

Su Chen felt a strange sensation in his heart. What did this have to do with women?

The professors at Beijing University also provided ample solutions at this moment.

“Whatever Jiangda offers, we’ll give 1.2 times that amount. Besides, when it comes to job placement and government positions after graduation, Guodu University is very good at handling things.”

These words immediately made the professor from Jiang University laugh.

"Brother, stop bragging. Everyone has their own expertise. Elemental Soul Techniques are an advantage of our school. Besides, he's already a national champion, why would he care about your future job benefits?"

While undermining him, seeing that the guardian on the other side seemed somewhat moved, he gritted his teeth and decided to give 1500 credits per year.

Excessive preferential treatment can cause serious problems.

Don’t worry about scarcity but inequality.

At the very least, a confidentiality agreement should be in place; otherwise, what will happen once the top scorers and outstanding students from other provinces find out?

It's best not to leak this information.

Perhaps due to various concerns, the female teacher from Tianwu University handed a prepared A4 sheet of paper to Su Chen after slightly altering a few numbers with a pen.

"Not bad." Qin Miaojing raised an eyebrow.

Her words were enough to pique the curiosity of others, but with such a powerful figure present, the other admissions officers could not use their mental powers to examine the contents of the paper.

Jiang Da, the professor, gritted his teeth and decided not to follow suit. The package of benefits offered just now had already far exceeded the limits set by his superiors.

The university professor was also extremely wary of this cunning and dangerous woman, who might be bluffing. He didn't want to continue following her indefinitely.

"Anyway, I'll give 1.2 times whatever Jiang Da offers. We don't have any elemental secret techniques, but the secret techniques we can offer are incredibly powerful and have amazing effects."

Soul techniques naturally vary in quality.

Su Chen's rare Soul Echo Secret Technique has a golden spiritual color, which is clearly a superior version of the current soul secret techniques that belong to the white spiritual luster.

There are also related skill strength ranking lists on external websites.

It is said that the corresponding secret techniques were simulated by multiple supercomputers, and a big data model was built to run the data. This process is bound to have some degree of error.

"What does Xiaochen want?" Aunt Jing asked curiously, seeing that the fish in the pond were no longer willing to take the bait.

Having said all that, it's all been a one-sided offer from the other party. So what does Su Chen want?

"Excuse me, could you help me resolve the issue of the Demon Spirit Envoy's mental attribute specialization?" Su Chen truthfully voiced his thoughts.

This was the choice he most longed for.

The known special effects of mental transformation include five major characteristics: 'mystery', 'prophecy', 'psychic illusion', 'extrasensory perception', and 'dreamlike illusion'.

Just like the special effects of the lightning element are not limited to 'Holy Lightning', there are also 'Heavenly Lightning', 'Demonic Lightning', etc.

Each approach has different effects, and if given a choice, Su Chen would prefer to select a more suitable spiritual specialization effect for Xiao Ling.

Snapped!
Teacher Tianwu suddenly slapped her thigh and stood up.

She laughed and said, "What a coincidence! Our Tianwu University and Shuiyue University abroad are the only key cooperative institutions in China. The two sides exchange some resources every year, and coincidentally, you have plenty to choose from."

Water Moon University?

Su Chen was slightly surprised. If he remembered correctly, this university was located on the moon, and another branch campus, connected by a stargate, was located in the Mercury city-state.

The overall teaching staff is very strong, in no way inferior to that of top universities in China.

The admissions officers at the other two prestigious universities were immediately uneasy.

"Won't it be hard to explain to the higher-ups if you treat them too well? What about the other students? If you end up cashing a bad check, it will damage your credibility and offend Su Chen," the teacher from Peking University said seriously.

The female teacher from Tianwu University was not annoyed and smiled, saying, "Among the five prestigious universities, our War Academy is the most martial, where everything is decided by strength."

"Hmph, that's not necessarily true."

The teachers from Jiangda University were not convinced. They had only been outmatched in the university exchange competitions in the past two years. Fortune changes, and anything could happen.

"The resources are too abundant."

While remaining silent, Teacher Yu Dong, who was standing beside him, secretly sighed. The conditions offered by the three prestigious schools were undeniably generous, and they had given him ample treatment and respect.

If he were to help Su Chen choose, he would likely make a final decision between Jiangda and Tianda, as both the Elemental Academy and the War Academy would greatly benefit Su Chen's future.

"Alright, everyone's conditions have been received."

At this moment, Qin Miaojing, as the one who made the final decision, stood up from the sofa on the spot. She glanced at the time and said, "Dinner is almost here. I'll give you the final answer first thing tomorrow morning. After all, this is a major life event, and I need to go back and discuss it."

That makes sense.

But upon closer examination, the problem is significant.

This deadly woman is a cunning old fox! Professor Jiang is having a headache. This is tantamount to turning an open tender into a behind-the-scenes game.

There's no guarantee that someone won't add more bets tonight.

The situation is beyond our control.

This is such a coveted prize that everyone wants to get their hands on.

On the one hand, besides the fact that the combat card master quota is officially mandated.

Another major factor is that this Su Chen is really strong.

The admissions offices of prestigious universities all have extensive connections, and although it's impossible for any recordings of the national competition to be leaked, you can still find out a lot of information about the champion by asking the organizers.

In particular, Yao Yi, the vice president of the association, had a great fondness for him. Before the training camp even started, he gifted him the Tears of the Divine Phoenix so that he could form an eight-card contract in advance.

Professor Jiang even specifically inquired with Vice President Yu of his provincial association, and to his surprise, the other party also spoke highly of him, instructing him to recruit him into Jiangnan University at all costs.

broken.

I guess I'll have to raise the stakes again tonight.

"gone."

Qin Miaojing waved goodbye to everyone and then took Su Chen's hand as they left the administration building.

"Wouldn't that be a bit much?" Su Chen hesitated. He could sense that the admissions office teachers were being swayed by Aunt Jing and were being thoroughly exploited.

"What's this?"

Aunt Jing laughed and said, "Would your godmother cheat you? Those three teachers practically wanted to tie you to their boat, so this will cost extra."

"go!"

"go for meal."

At this moment, she adopted the demeanor of an elder, raising her head and eyebrows to indicate that Su Chen should sit in the back seat.

soon.

Surrounded by students, the rocket launcher engine at the rear of the Lingshuo two-wheeled flying car immediately burst into flames, and the cool vehicle drove out of the school. After driving a few hundred meters onto the main road, it immediately began to climb rapidly towards the elevated train track.

At this moment, Su Chen, who was in the back seat, already had his own answer.

Tianwu University has given us too much.

The elemental soul techniques provided by Jiangnan University were indeed insufficient to sustain the fight.

Furthermore.

Xia He wouldn't be able to get into the Elemental Academy at all.

Once Su Chen realized this, the answer in his mind became clearer.
