Secret techniques were a special category that covered most of the methods to cultivate and obtain supernatural powers. The characteristic was that every secret technique branch had a complete set of self-justifying and effective cultivation systems. Even a portion of the martial arts systems could be classified as secret techniques.

These secret technique systems were the same as martial arts. There were differences between low, middle, and high levels. There were strong and weak techniques, and the upper limit for the techniques could be high or low. Moreover, many secret technique systems require a certain amount of Aptitude to study them.

In the past month, Zhou Jing had attended many Explorer courses and knew most of the secret knowledge of the main world. Most of it was gathered from the various astral realms, and the “Secret Technique” that Lei Wanjun cultivated was one of them.

For these “foreign secret techniques”, the main world would process and improve them so that they could adapt to the environment of the main world, reduce the conflict of power, and prevent them from backfiring against the new environment.

They would also use technology to analyze the principles of foreign secret techniques and integrate them into the technology system of the main world to strengthen the technological reserves of their civilization.

Because of Zhou Jing’s interest, he had specially gone to research the various secret technique systems during this period of time. He realized that the requirements for the original techniques were even harsher. One needed to cultivate for a long time before they could begin, and its initial combat strength was very low.

As for the version taught by the academy, it was the processed version of the main world. It had developed a set of methods to “accelerate combat strength”.

One was to take drugs, and the other was to use mystic artifacts.

There was a saying that one could consume pills to increase one’s mystic powers and assist in cultivation.

The main world had analyzed many medicinal formulas and used technological methods to improve them to reduce the side effects. Then, they were produced in an assembly line and supplied to the academy on a large scale.

On the other hand, mystic artifacts were an important source of combat strength for early-stage Secret Technique Cultivators. The main world had cracked the method of refining mystic artifacts and were able to mass produce such artifacts in an assembly line.

The flying sword, flag array, and compass that Lei Wanjun used were all of this type. They were no different from mass-produced magic tools.

Although it was a standard item, the quality was extremely high. The materials used for the pills and artifacts produced by the assembly line were very precise. Perhaps a common standard item could be considered a high-quality treasure in the Astral Realm where the secret technique originated. This was the advantage of the technology and productivity of the main world.

Therefore, the cultivation resources of the Supers Academy were quite abundant. This allowed Lei Wanjun to have good combat strength after only a month of learning these Cultivation Techniques. Otherwise, it would not be of much use even if he practiced for another three to five years, let alone a month.

However, there were pros and cons to everything.

The technical analysis of the main world could allow foreign secret techniques to radiate new vitality. By using technology to assist in cultivation, one could do as the Romans did.

However, there was also a greatest flaw, which was that the system was incomplete.

After all, it was just gathering knowledge. It was common to lack cultivation techniques and higher realm information, causing the growth of many foreign secret techniques to temporarily have a limit.

Moreover, the formation of every mystic technique system was a long evolution of a world. It had an inseparable relationship with the cultural heritage of different planes.

The main world lacked this part of literacy, and sometimes, it could not be understood. Therefore, the deduction system had no choice but to be deciphered and studied together with culture. The so-called cultivation techniques was a good example.

However, Lei Wanjun’s own superpower was very helpful to his cultivation of mystic techniques.

Many secret technique systems were related to the mental attribute. Sometimes, as soon as one gained basic mastery, they could quickly increase their mystic power, comparable to the years of hard work of ordinary people. Moreover, they could learn things quickly.

This was also one of the reasons why the Supers Bureau clearly had an acquired supernatural system, but it was only open to awakened mutants… Once a superpower was combined with a certain secret technique, one would be a genius of this system. It would be easier to nurture and have more research value.

The relevant knowledge he had learned in a month flashed through his mind. Zhou Jing’s thoughts raced, and he instantly analyzed Lei Wanjun’s ability.

The moment the countdown hit zero, Lei Wanjun moved.

He raised his sword finger and softly commanded,

“Go!”

The green flying sword trembled and flew out like a beam of light.

Whoosh — Tang!

Zhou Jing turned his body and raised his blade, successfully intercepting the flying sword and blocking it.

However, the green flying sword circled around and slashed down again. It was as if an invisible swordsman was leading it in close combat, and the blade stabbed at him from various tricky angles.

Zhou Jing did not stop walking. As he ran closer to Lei Wanjun, he waved his long saber repeatedly, weaving a barrier of light to protect his body.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The long saber and the flying sword frequently intersected, but the blade could not break through the light at all.

However, the flying sword was agile and fast. It was always wrapped around Zhou Jing, who was moving at high speed, and it was difficult to shake it off.

The two sides quickly closed the distance to within 30 steps. Zhou Jing could easily cross this distance with a sprint.

However, at this moment, Zhou Jing suddenly felt a sense of danger. He suddenly turned a corner and dodged to the side.

In the next moment, the faintly discernible will incarnation appeared and punched the spot where Zhou Jing was originally standing. The ground cracked.

“Lei Wanjun’s mental superpower seems to be an embodiment of form and substance, but it’s actually a manifestation of mental strength. The punch he throws is actually a manifestation of his psychokinesis. Its power is not small…”

Zhou Jing’s mind raced.

Suddenly, he felt a wave of dizziness and his consciousness became blurry.

“Mental interference!”

He was shocked and forced himself to focus. As he dealt with the flying sword, he quickly retreated, distancing himself from the mental clone. Only then did the mental interference lessen.

“It seems that the consciousness embodiment will cause a passive mental interference to the surrounding living beings. The closer I get, the greater the effect…”

Zhou Jing had watched Lei Wanjun’s competition yesterday and knew that the range of his will incarnation was not short and its attack power was not weak.
