nThe next morning, the sun was out.

n

n

nAfter a night of training, Vincent did not feel tired. Instead, he felt refreshed.

n

n

n

n

nHe did not know what was going on. It was probably because he had awakened three S-Class superpowers, which had improved his spirit.

n

n

nAfter he repeatedly brandished his saber the night before, swinging and pondering, Vincent managed to comprehend the essence of the Collapsing Mountain Strike.

n

n

nAlthough it was only a weak point, it was enough to shock everyone.

n

n

nThis was something that he could only comprehend after a real battle.

n

n

n

n

nHe knew that he would have a better insight into the power once he left the city and had the opportunity to practice it.

n

n

n“Ding Dong.”

n

n

nThe doorbell rang.

n

n

nVincent opened the door and looked at the deliveryman from the psionic mall. He was stunned for a moment as he did not expect that the delivery would be so fast.

n

n

n

n

nHe just bought it the day before and it arrived the next day. The speed was so fast that it even made people click their tongues.

n

n

n“Mr. Vincent, your delivery.”

n

n

nVincent took it and closed the door. He could not wait to open the package.

n

n

nHe picked up a dark black, 10 cm wide and 1.2 m long battle saber.

n

n

nThe blade was emitting a cool light; it was obviously really sharp.

n

n

n“My money did not go to waste.”

n

n

n

n

nVincent was pleasantly surprised.

n

n

nHe was very satisfied with his saber.

n

n

nAside from superpowers, there were also weapons that could be used to deal with monsters.

n

n

nThe weapons were made from a type of psionic ore found in the black hole.

n

n

nPsionic ore could allow weapons to be imbued with superpowers.

n

n

nOrdinary weapons could be considered F-Class weapons if a little was added.

n

n

nVincent’s saber contained a good amount of psionic ore. It was enough for Vincent to use it until he became an intermediate-level superpower person.

n

n

nAfter putting all his medicine into the storage ring, Vincent opened the door and took a deep breath. The sun shone brightly on his face. He then walked out of the city full of determination.

n

n

n

n

nAn hour later, at the city gate, Vincent was stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.

n

n

n“Hello, please show your identification.”

n

n

nAfter many years of development, the monsters around the city had been destroyed.

n

n

nOnly some low-level monsters were left for low-level superpower users to train.

n

n

nIn order to prevent high-level monsters from appearing, there were soldiers guarding a certain area. This part of the city was called a safe zone.

n

n

nVincent handed his identification to the soldiers. After the soldiers checked his identification, they let him pass.

n

n

nHowever, the soldier was skeptical of him.

n

n

nIt seemed impossible for such a young kid like Vincent to leave the city.

n

n

nThis was the first time he had seen a young teenager leave the city to go for practice.

n

n

n“Maybe he went out to see what the monsters looked like,” the soldier guessed.

n

n

nVincent did not know what the soldier was thinking. He went to the wilderness, breathed in the fresh air, and started stretching.

n

n

nThis was the first time he had left the city in more than ten years.

n

n

nThe woodland and flowers outside the city were indeed very refreshing.

n

n

n

n

nHowever, he was aware that this refreshing feeling was dangerous. If he let his guard down and relaxed, only death would await him.

n

n

nIn the forest, the roars of monsters could be heard from time to time.

n

n

nThe safety zone of Ellis city was less than eight kilometers in circumference. The main monsters were of trainee-level.

n

n

nThe closer one was to the center, the stronger the monster was.

n

n

nThere were even rumors that the strongest monster in the safety zone was an intermediate-level monster.

n

n

n“Moo!”

n

n

nA furious roar was heard not very far away from Vincent.

n

n

nVincent quickly took out his saber. He had never expected that the first battle to come so quickly.

n

n

nAs he turned his head, he saw a rhinoceros that was covered in a metallic luster. Its eyes were red, and the horn on its nose was shining under the sunlight.

n

n

n“Steel Rhinoceros, a monster in its probation period.”

n

n

nVincent had seen this monster in the monster guide that Chris had given him.

n

n

nIts entire body was as hard as steel. It ran fast as it was relying on its momentum to launch attacks.

n

n

nVincent’s entire body trembled. He could not tell if it was from fear or excitement.

n

n

nHe had no time to think as the steel rhinoceros was just ten meters away.

n

n

nHe took a deep breath to calm himself down.

n

n

nVincent raised his saber and strike the rhinoceros.

n

n

nClang!

n

n

nThere was no damage to the rhinoceros.

n

n

nOn the contrary, due to the powerful recoil, Vincent was sent flying.

n

n

nWhile he was in the air, Vincent twisted his body forcefully. At that moment, he discovered the problem with his battle style.

n

n

nFortunately, with the buffer of his battle blade, the Steel Rhinoceros did not cause any damage to him.

n

n

nVincent rolled over and landed on the ground.

n

n

nThe Steel Rhinoceros then charged towards Vincent once again.

n

n

nVincent remembered the Steel Rhinoceros’s weakness. The Steel Rhinoceros was not agile. He quickly dodged and at the same time, slashed the Steel Rhinoceros’s waist.

n

n

nClang!

n

n

nIt still did not do any damage to it.

n

n

n“I’m still not used to it!”

n

n

nVincent shook his head in disappointment and snapped his fingers using his left hand.

n

n

nHe decided to use his special ability to end this meaningless battle.

n

n

nA cluster of black flames appeared along Vincent’s fingertips. The surrounding space became a little smoky as he casually threw flames on the Steel Rhinoceros.

n

n

nThe Steel Rhinoceros initially thought that it could kill Vincent easily. However, it had failed twice and was very angry.

n

n

nThis time round, it was determined to smash Vincent into pieces.

n

n

nThe Steel Rhinoceros launched another attack. However, when it saw the black flames flying towards it, it felt afraid.

n

n

nIt tried to stop its attack, but because of its inertia, it still slid forward a few dozen meters and was engulfed by the black flames.

n

n

nS-Class elemental ability, Hellfire!

n

n

nIt was simply a disaster for the Steel Rhinoceros.

n

n

nBoom!

n

n

nAs soon as the black flames hit the body of the Steel Rhinoceros, a shocking scene unfolded right before Vincent’s eyes.

n

n

nThe raging flames instantly swallowed the entire Steel Rhinoceros, and with the help of the crops on the ground, the fire spread out in all directions.

n

n

nIn the span of one breath, the Steel Rhinoceros disappeared without a trace. Not a single sound was made, and not even a speck of dust was left behind.

n

n

nIf Vincent failed to control Hellfire, the safe zone would have been set ablaze.

n

n

nEven so, nearly a hundred square meters were still burnt to the ground.

n

n

nVincent looked at the black flames on his fingertips and broke out in cold sweat. He had underestimated the terror of Hellfire.

n

n

n“I killed a trainee monster instantly, how terrifying!”

n

n

nVincent exclaimed.

n

n

nHe knew that the Steel Rhinoceros tried to escape after seeing the flames but it was useless.

n

n

nVincent guessed that even a novice monster that was about to enter beginner-level would not be able to defend against Hellfire.

n

n

nAfter sensing the power consumption in his body, Vincent frowned slightly.

n

n

nMore than ten points of power had been consumed.

n

n

nHe only had 22 points of power!

n

n

nIn theory, he could only use it twice.

n

n

nIf he took any longer, he would probably only be able to use it once.

n

n

nThe consumption made him click his tongue.

n

n

n“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing an apprentice-level monster, Steel Rhinoceros. You have obtained one upgrade pill.”

n

n

n“Do you wish to consume it?”

n

n

nThe system’s notification sounded.

n

n

n“Consume it.”

n

n

n“Ding! You have successfully consumed the upgrade pill. Your power limit has increased by 5 points.”

n

n

nVincent was stunned when he heard the system notification.

n

n

nHe had never expected that the upgrade pill could increase his power limit by so much.

n

n

nThis was roughly equivalent to a day’s worth of intensive training.

n

n

n“With a few more pills, does it mean that I will become a beginner-level superpower user?”

n

n

nVincent muttered. He was surprised.

n

n

nThe system was indeed the fastest way to become stronger!

n

n

nAfter checking what he had gained, Vincent set off to explore other places.
