My Talent Skill Mutated

Zhuge Qingfeng asked while eating.

Before, Zhuge Qingfeng wouldn’t have thought so, but things were different now.

Besides, he had heard that Jingzhou Academy’s strongest student, Dongfang Yi, had already graduated and couldn’t represent the academy. Given Chen Yu’s current strength, it seemed highly likely.

Hearing this, Chen Yu took a bite of food and glanced at Zhuge Qingfeng.

Zhuge Qingfeng smiled. ”I’m just asking. No other reason.”

Maya didn’t say anything, but her eyes shone with intense curiosity.

Chen Yu remained silent, simply giving a quiet nod.

Representing the academy at the Alliance Conference—while the participant list hadn’t been officially announced, it wouldn’t stay a secret for long.

Chen Yu saw no need to hide it.

’Strength is confidence!’

Hiding it, in his opinion, was completely pointless.

The dean had advised him not to let it leak, but that was just a precaution against the Heterodox Sect targeting him.

When it came to targeting the Extraordinary Academies, the Heterodox Sect had never given up!

”You’re really participating!” Zhuge Qingfeng stared at him in astonishment as he nodded.

”Is it that strange?” Chen Yu replied, still eating.

Zhuge Qingfeng was speechless.

’What a thing to say! How is it not strange?! He’s just a first-year. A first-year student representing their academy at the Alliance Conference is probably unprecedented in the history of all the academies. You need to be at least Level 9 to even qualify!’

But considering Chen Yu’s current strength, it actually seemed quite reasonable.

”For our academy, Dongfang Yao is participating. It’s already been decided internally,” Maya spoke up.

’Dongfang Yao...’

Hearing the name, Chen Yu glanced at Maya.

”Brother Yu, you must know her, right? I heard Dongfang Yao mention you before. She said you two worked together once,” Maya said, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded slightly.

”Dongfang Yao... you mean the one from the Dongfang family who has the Phoenix Power?” Zhuge Qingfeng looked at Maya, his face a mask of shock.

Maya nodded. ”Mhm, that’s her. That upperclassman is incredibly powerful. She’s already gone to an Extraordinary Abyss to train. In a few months, she might even break through to Level 8.”

”Phoenix Power?!”

Chen Yu stared at Maya, stunned.

’This... is it the same Phoenix Power I’m thinking of?!’

Dongfang Yao possessed a powerful ability within her. It had erupted once before in the Tangula Abyss when they faced the Beast King.

However, Chen Yu had never understood what it was, nor had he pried for details.

Now, hearing what Maya said, he was truly shocked.

’The Phoenix Power... is it the same as the one I was thinking of? Or is it different?’

”What kind of Superpower is this Phoenix Power?” Chen Yu asked Maya curiously.

Maya looked at him in surprise. ”Brother Yu, you worked with Dongfang Yao. Don’t you know?”

Chen Yu was speechless.

’Just because we worked together, I’m supposed to know everything?!’

Chen Yu was at a loss for words. Looking at Maya, he shook his head.

”The Phoenix Power is a terrifyingly powerful Superpower. Legend has it that the first Patriarch of the Dongfang family possessed the Phoenix Power. This ability has already transcended the scope of S-rank abilities and is known as a Supreme Superpower!”

”Even the powerful Superpowers of Space and Time can’t compare to the Phoenix Power.”

”The Phoenix Power grants perception and precognition, allowing one to foresee everything that is happening or will happen in the future. At a certain stage, even if the wielder hasn’t reached the level of a True God, they can possess the strength to obliterate one.”

”Furthermore, the Phoenix Power can reverse time and space, alter timelines, and interfere with future events. It also allows for nirvanic rebirth, enabling the user to become even stronger.”

”However, the Phoenix Power cannot be fully awakened until one becomes a True God. Only then can it be completely awakened, unlocking all of its abilities.”

”Mm, that’s all I know for now. As for whether it has any other abilities, nobody knows yet.”

”That’s so overpowered!”

Listening to Maya’s explanation, Chen Yu’s mind was in turmoil.

Judging from Maya’s words, this Phoenix Power was almost identical to the one he was thinking of.

Reversing time, foreseeing the present and future, altering timelines... an ability like that was absolutely terrifying!

Calling it a Supreme Superpower was definitely well-deserved.

He knew Dongfang Yao’s ability was powerful, but he never imagined it would be *this* powerful.

This single Supreme Superpower was probably even more overpowered than all of his abilities combined.

The bad news, however, was that it wasn’t fully awakened—only a portion of it was.

The fact that one had to become a True God to unlock the Phoenix Power’s full potential was proof enough of how frightening it truly was.

”That ability is just insane!” Chen Yu sighed.

It was a heartfelt sigh.

Maya nodded. ”It is insane. Otherwise, how could it be called a Supreme Superpower? From a thousand years ago to the present, very few Supreme Superpowers have ever appeared. I heard the first Great Emperor of the Human Race also had a Supreme Superpower, but no one knows what it was.”

”You’re only talking about the good parts. These Supreme Superpowers have their flaws, too,” Zhuge Qingfeng interjected.

”Flaws?”

Chen Yu looked at Zhuge Qingfeng.

Zhuge Qingfeng said, ”Rumor has it that people with Supreme Superpowers all suffer fatal calamities and endless disasters. Moreover, Supreme Superpowers are incredibly difficult to control. If she hadn’t been born into a super-family like the Dongfang family, Dongfang Yao probably wouldn’t even be alive today.”

”Oh? Why is that?” Chen Yu asked him curiously.

”The Phoenix Power is extremely difficult to control and can cause irreversible damage to the wielder. This damage grows stronger as their own power increases. If they can’t become a True God, they will eventually face certain death.”
