Inside the classroom stood Wei Xiao Xiao. Her little hands on her desk, her body slightly leaned as she looked at the students who sat with different expressions.
Although they have been inside the Virtual World for two months in reality it felt like twenty years to them.
Everything that they experienced affected their view of the world, but they didn't allow it to change their mindsets.
They were still the same before entering the capsule and this pleased Wei Xiao Xiao. "Its good to see you all again." She smiled, looking at each one of them with pride as if saying, 'I am the one who teach them!'
"Hello Miss Wei!" They said together apart from Xiao Yinyue who drew lines of words in the air to express his thoughts.
"Did you enjoy your holiday?"
"..."
Wei Xiao Xiao chuckled at her foolish question while saying, "I am sure you did." Instead of correcting herself she continued.
In truth you could say some loved the experience while some like Zi Nuwang was addicted to the feeling of being on top of the world.
A new goal has been set in their mind after what they went through. To be on top of the world. To be the strongest humans in the world that no one could defy.
"First off I must congratulate all of you who have reached the Second Evolution." The students who were in their own world thinking of methods to get stronger heard this and became shocked.
'What?'
'How did she find out?!'
'What kind of trick is this!'
"/\/\/\|/\/\!!!!"
Even Xiao Yinyue couldn't control his emotions. He continously drew lines in the air, his palms filled with sweat.
They were shocked because the only way for someone to know another person evolution is if they release their mana, which they didn't.
"Since you have all entered the Second Evolution then for today's listen I will be going into it." Wei Xiao Xiao ignored their shocked gazes and turned to the board while continuing.
"The second evolution is all about unlocking True Mana also known as True Qi. This allows you to become more efficient in controlling your abilities and making it take up less mana while also making it stronger depending on the rank." Wei Xiao Xiao drew a man whose belly area had some sort of spiral substance inside.
"Basically if you weren't able to yield rank A abilities before then now you should be able to now."
In the first evolution a person mana is spread all over a their body, mainly the veins and run through the body just like blood.
However, when you enter the Second Evolution your mana is stored inside your belly area. We call that the Dantian and it can absorb mana from the surrounding into your body to replenish lost mana.
This is a huge advantage especially in battle. Since in the first evolution one have to wait until the body naturally regain mana they had to constantly worry about entering Overdosed Mana stage.
But in the second evolution all you need to do is sense the surrounding mana and convert it onto your own mana, replenishing it at a very quick rate.
Basically, to restore ones mana in the first evolution it could take up to 10 days, but in the second evolution it takes only 30 minutes!
The students looked at the board and nodded their head in excitement. They always hated the fact that they couldn't go all out in their battles since their mana always limited them. "But there's a disadvantage..." When they heard this their curiosity were filled to the brick as their attention widen.
"If your Dantian is lost all the power you have accumulated throughout the years will disappear." Hearing this the students jumped up from their seats. "Impossible!" Lu Jiao shouted and the class trembled.
Hearing his shout the students became frightened as that shout contained some sort of power that made them shiver.
"As you can see, Student Lu sent True Mana in his voice creating a roar with it." Wei Xiao Xiao was unfazed by the student reaction, instead she used it as an example.
"You can channel your True Mana in any part of your body to make any attack stronger. This is called Internal Power.
"Miss Wei what is Internal Power?" When Su Haixui heard this she became confused as her father or anyone a matter of fact never told her anything of such.
"Good question." Wei Xiao Xiao nodded at Su Haixui. For all the years she have been in the Academy this is the first time she have ever teach students and she found it rather fun.
"There are two types of power, External and Internal." She paused for a second making sure everyones paying attention.
"External Power is using outer strength. Your physical strength while Internal Power is using inside strength. which is your mana stored inside.
"When you were at the First Evolution it was technically impossible to use Internal Power due to you not being able to freely control the mana flowing through your body." Wei Xiao Xiao repeated. At this point felt like she was saying the same thing again.
"The Second Evolution fixes this, allowing you to use both Internal and External power."
The lesson continued for an full two hours. "Okay thats it for today." Wei Xiao Xiao sighed feeling mentally exhausted.
At this point Lu Jiao and Zi Nuwang was sleeping and the rest was half asleep.
"Miss Xiao where is Wei Xu?" At this point Su Haixui realized that someone was missing from the class and came to conclude that it was her Big Brother.
The lesson made her and the other students completely forget about him.
"Oh.. him." Even Wei Xiao Xiao forgot there was a boy in her class called "Wei Xu."
"He is enjoying his life." She said with a fake smile which no one saw while secretly praying that Wei Xu was indeed "enjoying his life."
______________
"There we go!" Inside of a domain filled with only darkness, Leah looked at the figure that lay on the ground with silver and fragments of gold covering his body.
"..." The figure didn't respond instead he stared at the woman coldly.
Body Stats :
Strength = 45
Speed = 46
Stamina = 41
Flexibility = 43
Endurance = 40
Wei Xu stats have increased drastically during his days of being stuck inside the shadows.
Everyday he was either trying to get a hit on Leah or being continously hit till he reached his limit.
The sad part is that everytime he reach his limit she would forcefully feed him a Elxir that recovers his strength.
So everyday he had to experience being healed and broken over and over to the point that he really believed that hell was black.
[Silver Body 9/9. Almost at the Golden Body stage.]
"How much time have pasted?" Leah questioned while placing her foot on Wei Xu head.
"Get off woman..." Wei Xu felt humiliated. He tried getting up but failed. In the end he had to wait until Leah feeds him the Elixr to be able to move.
"Aw~ You look so cute groveling beneath my feet" Leah giggled in awe as she stared at Wei Xu who kept shooting daggers at her.
[Ding! Congratulations on entering the Golden Stage.]
[Bones are being reformed.]
[Body is being strengthen.]
Wei Xu silver body became soaked in gold as a shiny light came off him bringing light inside the domain of darkness.
Name : Golden Body
Rank : 4
Description : Upon entering the Golden Stage your body will become as strong as purified gold. +10 endurance.
Ability : Instant Recovery - One time per day.
Side effect : 10 seconds of exhaustion.
Body Stats : (Refreshing...)
Strength = 45

Stamina = 41

Wei Xu reading the description immediately used the Instant Recovery ability and felt his strength returning to him.
But the moment he used it he felt something strange occurring in his body. Darkness, Lightning and Fire kept moving about inside him making him surprised.
'My abilities are back!' He thought as a smirk came up his face.
"Today I will let you suffer." Wei Xu looked at Leah with a large grin on his face when suddenly something started happening to the domain.
[Domain Stealer has been activated.]
