Chapter 87: Upgrade to Spherical Lightning, Wu Mo Is Still the Champion!

Indeed, it was still a useful attack spell!

Wu Mo lowered his eyes slightly and activated his offensive skill again. Streaks of golden lightning swept over in an instant, creating hideous cracks on the aura s.h.i.+eld.

Unfortunately, the aura s.h.i.+eld was supported by the energy within the Glazed Heart-protection Mirror. That was enough to repair it.

However, Wu Mo could also use his lightning attack many times. Once he discovered that the lightning was effective against the mirror, he used it like a barrage of cannons.

Its impact on the aura s.h.i.+eld caused a series of changes.

By then, the students below the a.s.sessment stage were already somewhat numb. Even though there was lightning and thunder on the stage, they remained quiet. Compared with before, they had adapted a lot.

In contrast, Wei Jiaming, who had been pulled to the side, still looked pale. It seemed that he had not recovered from the grief of having his beloved weapon damaged!

Meanwhile, Princ.i.p.al Qiu could not help but feel a little worried when he noticed the Glazed Heart-protection Mirror in his hand start to heat up.

If the same attack were to land on the other students, he could not see how they would survive.

The attack power alone was sufficient to prove that the hammer in Wu Mo’s hand was of Legendary grade or above!

The golden lightning struck the aura s.h.i.+eld like a violent storm, and Princ.i.p.al Qiu did not allow himself to be distracted. He used his mental energy to control it, afraid that if he was not careful, there would be a hole in his body.

At that moment, he finally understood what the mayor had been thinking.

A student had beaten him to a draw. If there was a hole in the ground, he wanted to crawl into it.

Unlike Princ.i.p.al Qiu’s cautious att.i.tude, Wu Mo was behaving like a battering ram. The bigger the crack, the more excited he became.

The reason was, he had discovered that Mjolnir’s Lightning skill actually had proficiency levels.

The system interface showed that the more he used it, the higher his proficiency would be. As long as he broke through three digits, he would be able to upgrade it into an even more powerful attack!

By then, his proficiency had continuously risen to 90 points as he bombarded his opponent’s Glazed Heart-protection Mirror.

However, the heart-protection mirror was still strong. Even though he had consumed a lot of energy, he still could not break it. That meant he had not pa.s.sed the a.s.sessment.

“Lightning!”

When his proficiency reached 99 points, Wu Mo once again used Mjolnir’s skill with all his might.

In the next moment, an ethereal voice echoed.

[Lightning skill proficiency has reached the standard. Skill upgraded to Spherical Lightning (condenses into a ball of lightning, causing a huge amount of damage to the target. This damage bypa.s.ses 30% of the opponent’s defense)!]

Right then, the golden lightning that had originally been condensed expanded abruptly and continued to condense in the air until it became a ball!

The ball-shaped lightning in mid-air flickered with golden light, and those who were illuminated by it like the sun could not help but narrow their eyes.

“Go!”

Wu Mo’s spirit power moved, and in the next moment, the ball-shaped lightning shot out at high speed and smashed directly into the palm-sized copper mirror.

Boom!

A violent explosion sounded, and the resulting blast wave shook the entire auditorium.

Holding the Glazed Heart-protection Mirror in both hands, Princ.i.p.al Qiu was forced several steps back by the shock wave.

Streaks of golden lightning then pierced through the mirror’s aura s.h.i.+eld.

The powerful lightning connected Princ.i.p.al Qiu, Wei Jiaming, and the elderly teacher who had rushed over from the judging panel.

Lightning flashed, and Princ.i.p.al Qiu felt a numbing sensation all over his body.

Since he was still wearing other defensive equipment, he was not electrocuted.

However, Wei Jiaming and the elderly teacher who had advocated actual combat were both electrocuted by the intense lightning. As a result, their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

Cras.h.!.+

Seeing that Wu Mo’s attack had penetrated the Glazed Heart-protection Mirror, the mayor was shocked, and he stood up from his seat in excitement.

He stared at Wu Mo with burning eyes and cried out, “It must be true. You must have caused the phenomenon in the sky that I saw the other day!”

When Wu Mo saw the mayor staring at him and losing his composure, hewas a little dumbfounded.

‘What strange phenomenon in the sky? Wasn’t it a thunderstorm caused by a spirit venerable martial artist ascending to the upper realm?

‘What does it have to do with me?’

However, the mayor was not the only one to lose his composure. Even the usually calm princ.i.p.al was staring at the Glazed Heart-protection mirror in his hand in disbelief.

At that moment, he could sense that the energy within the mirror had been swept clean. To block the Spherical Lightning that Wu Mo had released, he had exhausted all of his energy.

“This… is a Divine artifact?”

His gaze was fixed on the silver hammer in Wu Mo’s hand. The excitement in his heart could not be released for a long time.

He had spent his entire life on the path of forging, devoting himself to studying Divine artifact. Yet, in the end, his strength was inferior to that of a four-star blacksmith.

Was this not a cruel blow as well?

Tears flickered in his slightly dazed eyes. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to let go of the obsession in his heart.

Raising his head, he stared deeply at Wu Mo before him. Sighing deeply, he said, “The future will ultimately be the next generation’s stage. You have pa.s.sed the offensive power test and obtained 10 points!”

Right then, there was an uproar below the stage.

“Even Princ.i.p.al Qiu isn’t a match for Wu Mo. Is this person really just a student?”

“This is simply unbelievable. G.o.d knows how much shock this student named Wu Mo has given us!”

“Divine weapon… Is the hammer that he forged really a Divine weapon?!”

The crowd’s numb hearts somewhat moved.

Meanwhile, Zhou Jinlong, who was the only one sitting upright in the judge’s seat, revealed the trace of a smile.

His eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation as he looked at Wu Mo. One could say that Wu Mo’s actions had completely aroused his deep interest!

“Mayor, I think it’s still too early for you to be excited. Isn’t the next round of a.s.sessment on control? When the time comes, I will personally go on stage and conduct the final a.s.sessment for this student!”

“If Wu Mo can pa.s.s my a.s.sessment, it won’t be too late for you to be excited!”

Zhou Jinlong’s face was filled with antic.i.p.ation. The strength displayed by Wu Mo had already attracted his attention and interest. Now that there was a chance, he had to personally go up and partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment!

Seeing Zhou Jinlong’s abnormal expression.

Zhao Lu and Princ.i.p.al Qiu who were at the side immediately looked at each other in dismay.

They had a premonition that although Zhou Jinlong was a member of the National Research Inst.i.tute, Wu Mo would definitely defeat him!

The a.s.sessment for offensive power was still going on in the auditorium.

It was just that the standard of the test had returned to two opponents attacking each other.

That aside, the number of students who pa.s.sed in the end was pitiful.

There were less than 30 people left.

Jiang Mengyao, on the other hand, felt regretful as she was eliminated in the fifth round of the test.

Although her dual swords were of Premium grade, she was unlucky to meet Qian Rong, who had used rebar steel to forge his long sword.

Ultimately, her defense was weak and her dual swords were directly broken.

She ranked 35th.

For now, Wu Mo was still firmly in first place with a score of 55 points on the screen.

It felt like a sword was hanging over all the students’ heads.
